*Helga's POV*
As Rhonda went on about her love life, I couldn't help but think about my love life. I mean, the love of my life is sitting across from me right now!
I didn't mean to stare, I couldn't help it. He's so perfect.
When he turned to me, I quickly switched my gaze to somewhere else. But I couldn't help but think that Arnold had seen me staring.
He looked as if he was about to say something but the bell rang. I quickly jumped up and shot to the door.
I was almost out the door when I realized I left my notebook at the lunch table.
I pushed through the crowd to get back. When I got there, I saw that my notebook got kicked to the other side of the table. Where Arnold was.
Shit.
I hurried to the other side and bent to pick it up. But when I stood back up, my lips crashed into Arnold's.
Before I knew what I happened, warmth spread through me like a fire. Then I opened my eyes and freaked out. Instinctively, I tried to pull away but Arnold held me.
Arnold was kissing me!
I almost swooned into the kiss and let myself get lost.
Nothing was there but me and Arnold.
Until the late bell rang.
Damn.
Arnold pulled back and smiled at me. I smiled goofily.
Finally.
*Phoebe's POV*
Helga practically pranced into study hall. Our study hall teacher is pretty cool and lets us talk so I asked Helga what happened.
"Oh, Phoebe, it was so…so beautiful!"
"What was, Helga?"
"Our kiss!"
I almost asked who when it hit me, "You and Arnold kissed?"
"It started as an accident but then it turned out so wonderful." Helga sighed.
"That's great! Do you think you'll start going out?"
Helga plopped on her desk and started pouting, "Oh, I don't know. It depends on him. He easily could have just been caught up in the moment."
"Helga, don't think like that. You have to try."
"Okay, Pheebs, I will."
This is so amazing!
*Gerald's POV*
My stomach did summersaults when I saw Phoebe rushing towards me.
"Gerald! Oh my gosh, you'll never guess what happened!"
Of course, I already knew. Word spreads through this school like a wildfire, "You finally heard, huh?"
"What do you mean? I thought it just happened!"
"Wait…are we talking about the same thing?"
"Arnold kissed Helga!" she squealed.
"What?" –I started laughing- "Finally! I thought those two would never get together!"
Phoebe giggled, "I know! …But what were you talking about?"
"I thought you were talking about the fight between Wolfgang and Harold."
Phoebe gasped, "Is Harold okay?"
I laughed. She's so cute. "Of course! You should be asking if Wolfgang's okay."
She smiled, "Well, I gotta get to English. See ya later."
I kissed her on the cheek.
This day couldn't get any better.
*Arnold's POV*
This day couldn't get any better.
I practically waltzed into history. Helga has math this period and her classroom is just down the hall. I plan on meeting her after school.
Nothing could ruin this day.
"Heeey, Arnold."
Except Lila.
"Hi, Lila."
I sit behind her. I just remembered how much I hate this class. The only class I have with Lila. And I don't have with Helga.
"How ya doin'?"
She obviously doesn't know about me and Helga, or I would be dead or dying. I've seen Lila when she's mad and it's not pretty.
But I couldn't help but rub in my happiness.
"Amazing." I sighed.
She raised an eyebrow, "Oh really? How come?"
"I don't think you wanna know."
That got her angry.
"How do you know? Tell me!"
I held in a laugh. Why am I being so mean?
"Well, I-I think I'm in love."
"I already knew that, remember? You told me that when you broke up with me."
"Oh…" Awkward. "Well, you don't know who it is."
She narrowed her eyes and spoke in monotone, "I bet I do."
What? How can she know?
She opened her mouth to say something but the bell rang.
Talk about saved by the freakin' bell.
I need to talk to Helga.
