A/N: Hey there! Another update of Valentine's week. Enjoy. Usually updates will be in a week.

Chapter 2

Phoebe stole glances at Helga. "Seeing her in a new light, you think you know someone." Phoebe thought. Meanwhile Helga had fallen asleep from the recent boring history lecture. Her head laid on the desk, golden curls masking her face. Her face held a small smile. "It's incapable to believe that Arnold hasn't caught her yet. Helga is the same person, just lost her guarded walls."

Arnold had been doing the same as Phoebe, glancing at Helga when he was sure nobody was looking, subconsciously drawing hearts and Arnold + Cecile in his notebook. Gerald was getting worried, this has never happened. "Mmm, mmm, mmm. My man, Arnold has officially lost his mind." Gerald thought shaking his head.

"What's up with Arnold?" Lila whispered to Nadine.

"Isn't it obvious?" Nadine said, turning around in her seat.

"Isn't what obvious…?"

"Arnold likes Cecile!"

Lila almost fell out of her seat. "What? Like-like?"

"I guess so, maybe more by the looks of it."

"Whoa, what Nadine? What are guys talking about." Rhonda questioned leaning

"Shhhh. Arnold like likes Cecile." Nadine whispered back.

"Get out. No way. Just kidding. It was so obvious, Arnold might as well have been screaming at the top of his lungs." Rhonda rolled her eyes. "How could anyone NOT know."

"Um, I didn't know." Lila piped up.

"Ok, one person."

"Rhonda, please sit back into your seat." Mr. Simmons sighed.

"Sorry."

"Arnold like likes Cecile? Who is she, anyway?" Lila said with tone of disgust.

"Oooh, someone is jealous." Nadine smirked. "I thought you didn't like him anyway."

"I believe that I am not ever so jealous but we have only known her for a few hours and already he is worshipping her feet."

"Sure. No, see you don't know the whole story. From what I have observed, he has met her before and apparently something happened because Arnold has been acting like that ever since she walked into the room."

"Oh I see." Lila paused, "Wait-" But Nadine had already turned back and was writing the homework from the board. "Maybe I should ask Arnold."

Meanwhile Helga was sighing and writing into her pink book.

Oh my love of my days.

You fill me to the brim

You make my heart flit flutter

Sweeter than Fluffernutter.

Tapping her pen against her lip, in deep thought. Helga didn't her the bell ring, signalling the day was over. Arnold walked over, stopping by her desk and hoping to talk to her again. "So she writes poetry…" Arnold thought while a smile crept onto his face.

"Hello Arnold." Helga said sweetly.

Arnold sighed. That voice could move mountains. "Hey, Cecile. Have a good first day?"

"Yeah, I did." A smiled played on her lips.

"That's great! Would you mind if I walked you home?"

"Thanks, Arnold. That's very nice of you."

Arnold smiled while he followed her out of the classroom. "Even from the back she looks like an angel." Arnold thought to himself. Reaching the exit, he walked a little quicker to get the door. Helga giggled.

"Thanks Arnold."

"Sure, no problem." A small smile on his lips, while he shoved his hands in his pockets of his blue jeans. On the way to Helga's house they were deep in conversation, trying to ketchup on lost time.

"So, you think I would be a good writer?" Helga asked, after sharing a sonnet.

"Of course! I think you would become an inspiring writer. You inspired me." Arnold smiled a genuine smile.

Helga blushed. "So what about you, Foo-Arnold? Ahem. What plans do you have?" Whoo, close one.

Arnold smiled even more when detected a blush on Helga's cheeks. "Well, Cecile. I don't really know. Maybe I might go on adventures like my parents or psychologist. I do love helping people."

"Yeah, you do seem to help a lot. Like during lunch, someone dropped his lemon pudding, you comforted him and offered to pay for another one."

"That was Stinky. He loves his lemon pudding. I like seeing people happy, you know? Even my enemies, like Helga. She may be rough edged but she still has a heart."

Helga smiled at that. He cares for me. Even though I torture him. Bless his soul. She realized she hadn't responded. "Helga is one of your enemies?" Oh great, get on his bad side.

"Actually, no she isn't."

What? "I don't understand. If she isn't then why did you say she is?"

"Well, she picks on me everyday. Pranking, spitballs, name calling but she is always there for you when you need her. She helped me with that whole Lila thing, she got her dad to pay for the float and even the whole FTi issue." Arnold blushed, remembering when he found out who Deep Voice was. "She helped with plenty of other stuff too. So even with all the pranking and name calling she is a really good person."

"Wow. She sounds like an amazing girl." He remembers all that? I could faint right now. Sigh.

"You know what, she is." Arnold smiled and turned to look at Helga to find her blushing.

Lifting her gaze from off the ground, she met Arnold's gaze and smiled back.

This is certainly an improvement from two years ago. Laughing at the thought, back when Arnold first met "Cecile" and she had asked if he had liked someone. He had brought up the subject of Helga and that she really bugged him deep down. I guess he doesn't think that anymore.

"What's so funny?" Arnold asked curiously, breaking her thoughts. He stared at her intently waiting for answer.

"Heh, heh. I was just remembering that special valentine's day, two years ago." Helga smiled.

"Oh, yeah. I remember."

"Hmmm…. Oh, we passed my house."

"Oh!" Arnold chuckled.

Walking up the steps to her stoop, she turned around and gave Arnold a smile and a wave. Then turned the knob of her door and walked in. Arnold placed his hands in pockets and whistled on the way home. "What a great day! I got to meet Cecile again and she seems as beautiful as ever." Arnold thought.
