Chapter eleven: School
Arnold walked aboard the bus and as soon as he reached the top everyone started laughing. He walked and saw Rhonda who wasn't laughing.
"Rhonda I told you not to tell anyone." Arnold told Rhonda.
"Arnold I didn't tell them." Rhonda stated.
"I did." Shouted a voice in the back.
"Sid! How did you…"
"I was just walking along at night minding my own business when I look over and I see you and Helga kissing!"
Everyone started laughing again.
"Arnold and Helga sitting in a tree. KISSINT!" Harold shouted.
Then Helga was about to get on and when she did everyone was still laughing at Arnold.
"What did I miss?" Helga said over the laughing.
Then everyone looked to Helga and started laughing.
"What? What's so funny?"
Arnold whispered in Helga's ear. Everyone 'oohing as he did.
"Everyone knows about our… moment, curtsy of Sid" Arnold told Helga.
Helga looked to Sid with anger in her eyes. She grabbed Sid by the shirt and held him up with one hand.
"Give me one good reason why I shouldn't pound your skull!"
"Because… Arnold won't let you. Will you Arnold?" Asked Sid.
"Actually Sid I might help her. You saw me when I had my karate training. I haven't forgotten any of it." Said Arnold. Sid gulped and started to stutter.
"P-p-please Helga, I'm sorry I shouldn't have looked or told anyone. I-I-I'm so sorry! It's just Big Gin…"
"No excuses!" Helga shouted.
"Helga please put him down." Said Arnold as he put a hand on Helga's shoulder. When he did this it calmed Helga down and she put Sid back on the ground.
"Sit down before I change my mind." Helga said angrily. Sid ran to his seat by Harold.
"Alright, everyone I'll be truthful with you. Yes Arnold and I did kiss and yes we are dating but if anyone makes fun of that there're going to answer to 'old Betsy'" Helga held up her left fist. This shut everyone up. Then she sat down next to Arnold. They both held hands the whole way to school. No one made fun of them the rest of the day.
