Chapter 9
Helga walked out of the trailer to feel a cold breeze on her arms and legs. Looking down she realizes that she didn't change her cloths like she originally planned. Giving and annoyed noise she turned around to head back into the trailer.
" I gotta change. I'm still in these stinking shorts and tank top. You should make a fire with Arnoldo when I'm changing." Helga snickered as she closed the door behind her.
"Alright your majesty" Gerald said in an ironic tone, Phoebe giggled looking at Gerald with a cute smile. "Arnold is still in the car, he lost something of his while we stopped to eat, and still trying to find we won't be long Helga..." He turned to look at Phoebe. "Anyway do you wanna come get some fired wood with me Phoebe?"
"Sure Gerald. Don't wonder off on me okay? I don't really like the thought of going in the woods alone." Phoebe wrapped her arms around Gerald one arm.
"Okay babe, don't worry." As Gerald and Phoebe started to walk into the trees Arnold walked out of the jeep and smiled at the couple.
'They are so good together, I'm so happy for them' trailing off in his mind Arnold had a thought. 'Maybe my head phones are in my bag... I don't remember taking them out.'
Arnold walked to the trailer and opened the door quietly making sure that if Helga was still sleeping he wouldn't wake her. Eying his bag from the floor he tipped, toed to it. Starting to open it he spotted Something from the corner of his eye. Turning to the place he saw he found Helga. Arnold's mouth dropped as he seen what Helga was wearing.
Helga wore only her white laced bra and underwear with her golden hair down past her bra clip. Bending down to grab a pair of sweatpants and a tight black t shirt. Arnold couldn't move or speak as he watched Helga bend down, her white underwear barley covering anything, everything was in full view for him. Leaning back up Helga turned around, her head lifted up to see Arnold there. A hush of cold air lifted the room for a second or two, Arnold and Helga both shared shocked faces.
"Arnold! What are you doing in here! GET OUT! NOW!" As she stomped towards Arnold she tried to cover as much as she could. Focusing on covering herself with her hands, her feet stumbled on the sweat pants that was dragging across the floor. Helga felt herself falling, Arnold lost his glaze and saw that Helga was falling. Racing up from his spot he caught Helga at a neck of time before hitting the floor.
Helga opened her eyes to see that she was on top of Arnold once again. Trying to lift herself from his body she saw that Arnold was already holding himself up with his hands at the back of his back. Looking at Helga with a beat read face he asked.
"Ummm... Helga... Are you... Okay?"
Helga looked back at Arnold and blushed, trying to get up as fast as she could Arnold grabbed at her hips and forced her back down. "Helga don't move so fast. You fell, are you hurt or anything?" Arnold looked more worried then embarrassed about Helga being almost nude.
Getting up fast again Helga grabbed her things off the floor and stomped to the very back of the trailer and slammed the door shut. Arnold smiled at himself.
'Helga must be the only person in the world that can stomp angry in a trailer half nude about something so simple.' Arnold laughed as he got his headphones and waited outside for the others.
Gerald and Phoebe came back and saw a perfect fire, looking around they saw Arnold poking at it with a stick.
"Hey man! You made a fire for us already? It took a while for me and Phebes to even find fire wood..." Arnold laughed.
"Gerald when we first entered the camp site there was a sign saying 'FREE CAMP FIRE WOOD.' It's just right over there by the out outhouses." Arnold took his pointer out of the fire and pointed it the way for the outhouses.
"Man Phoebe. We went looking for wood and it was right in front of us this whole time." Phoebe giggled once again.
"It's okay Gerald. It was a fun experience while it lasted." Phoebe looked around trying to find Helga. "Hey Arnold... Where Helga?" Arnold's eyes widen as the name popped up, he relaxed and smirked.
"Must be still in the trailer." Arnold continued to poke at the fire. Curious to know what was going on Phoebe started to walk to the trailer but stopped to see Helga walking out of it instead with her grey sweatpants on and a big black sweater with her hair up in a bun. Passing Phoebe and walked over to a wood log that was in front of the fire.
"I am starving... What is there to eat?" Helga to took a stick for the wood that Gerald and Phoebe brought back. Everybody looked at each other then their bellies.
"Well Helga... You see we already ate... I tried texing you but no answer so we kinda ate without you... But there's hotdogs in the fridge in the trailer." Phoebe felt guilty for eating without Helga. Helga didn't care, she got up and went into the trailer.
Couple second in the trailer Helga came out with 2 hot dogs, buns, and ketchup. And awkward silence arose from everybody.
"Ummmm... I'm going to go make the beds for you to tonight." Phoebe trotted into the trailer switching the little light on. Silence once again took over the fire.
Once Phoebe came back to the fire Gerald was the one to speak.
"So... Anyone in for a scary story? It's is a camp fire and all, and I would really like to say one... If you guys don't mind." Gerald looked at everybody, they all smiled at Gerald for an okay. Arnold put down his beer.
"Okay Gerald hit us with one." Arnold loved to hear Gerald's stories, everybody did. Phoebe scooted over the Gerald a little but more knowing that she would get scared.
"Okay guys prepare not to sleep tonight." Leaning in closer to the fire he started.
"Becky, Lila, and Ronda all are having a sleep over back in middle school. Making a night of make-up, story's and s'mores. As Ronda walked into her back yard she started to undress herself, getting ready for a dip in her huge swimming pool. Lila and Becky followed along with her plan. It was late when they where swimming and splashing in her huge pool. Swimming for nearly a couple hours they decided to get out to watch a movie Ronda traveling behind had to close the pool, letting her minions go get dressed, she started to close the pool cover. Bending down to reach the lever a hand grabbed her from the pool! Drowning her! Ronda struggled, and kicked, trying to yell for help her head got held under the water if minutes at a time. All of a sudden she stopped moving. The man was pleased with this as he left the pool still opened.
Walking towards the house, he hears the other girls giggle from Ronda's room. Opening the back door he steps into the mansion.
Noticing that Ronda took longer then usual Becky left Lila alone in the large room to find her friend. Walking down the Twisty staire case she slowly goes at a step at a time calling Ronda's name out.
Reaching the bottom of the staire case she sneaks outside to see Ronda floating on top of the pool. Running to reach Ronda she pulled her out of the pool. Realizing that she was dead Becky panicked. Running toward to house again the figure cloths lines her by the throat. Begging for her life the shadow strangled her to death by his hands.
Hearing little cries for help Lila headed towards downstairs to find her friend to be laying on the hardwood motioned less. Putting her hands to cover her mouth she turned around to see the shadow. The man that killed all her friends. He wasn't a man but a dead man. His faced drained from color, his skin blue with red eyes that were irritated. His once blond hair was now a green color that was formed by the chlorine. His white dress shit now dirty and ripped. Lila scream and she raced to the front door. Not being fast enough he grabbed Lila's pigtails and dragged her outside. Heading toward the fire place he picked Lila from her hair again and hovered her over the fire pit. Fire blared in it from earlier while they where making s'mores. Lila flesh started to burn and smell, she screamed as loud as she could but no one herd her. Slowly she burned alive the spirit ate her limb by limb."
Gerald looked at everybody at the camp fire. Phoebe was on his lap scared of her mind. Helga somehow got her way to Arnold. Holding his arm for dear life. Arnold didn't seem to notice considering he was grabbing Helga leg for life as well...
"Well you guys I'm pretty tired... I think I'm going to bed. Can you put the fire out man, I am beat from driving all day." Gerald picked the small Asian up that was still to scared to move on his lap. Gerald closed the door behind him of the trailer and caught Arnold's and Helga attention. Looking at Helga arm she removed it immediately after realizing it. Standing up Helga spoke.
"Well Arnold... Hehehe.. I'm going to go to bed... Can you take out the fire for me please." With that Helga ran to the trailer and slammed the door behind her. Arnold realizing he was alone ran the water over the fire and ran into the trailer as well.
Arnold got into the trailer huffing, he turned around and locked it behind him. Walking to his bed that was originally the couch he got on it. Taking off his campfire smelt hoodie he covered himself with blankets. Turning to the wall he herd movement to the other side of the trailer. Trying to ignore it he closed his eyes, getting his mind on something else he slowly doze off. It wasn't after 10 minutes of trying to sleep that he herd his name.
"Hey... Arnold?... Are.. Y...yo... You awake?" He turned his body to look in the bed that Helga was sleeping in.
"No Helga I am not sleeping yet." Arnold voice sounded annoyed. He really wanted to sleep, but he couldn't with Helga making noise. Helga herd the annoyed voice and got annoyed herself.
"Fine. Do you know what, never mind Arnold." Helga turned around to face the wall and she made a little wimped sound. Arnold felt bad for doing that to her, putting a hand on his head he signed.
"I'm sorry Helga I'm just really tired, what would you like?" Helga turned back over to face Arnold again.
"Well.. I... I... I'm... I'm not tired... Hehehe ummm can't sleep do you wanna talk for a bit?" Helga would never admit that she was scared. Of Gerald's little story.
Arnold gave a crooked smile in the dark, knowing that Helga was scared of Gerald's story he snickered as well.
"Okay Helga, since you mentioned you wanted to talk I get an answer from you from any question that I want to ask."
Helga opened her mouth to protest, but she stopped and realized that she called him football head this morning because of sleeping with him. She cursed under her breath as she moved to face to the Roof of the trailer.
"Fine Arnold but this is the last time you will be getting an answer from me. You will be answering any question I want tomorrow night." Helga smiled wickedly, knowing exactly what's she's going to ask Arnold.
"Okay Helga, ever since JR high I haven't seen you date anybody. Well that's a lie... I have seen you date Brainy in high school for like a week..."
"Get to the question Arnold." Helga waited eagerly for a question so she can get it over with.
"Okay, Okay, my question is... When you meet the love of your life what would be the first thing you would want to do with them, to be more detailed what would you want to do for a first date." Arnold kind of blushed as he asked the question. Thanking god that it was dark and she could see him.
"Well Arnold... I would want my first date to be dancing. Hehehe... This sounds really girly coming from me, but I would want to dance with that guy. An romantic, dance that we will always remember, kind of like the wedding dance. it has to be in the moonlight though, after supper or even to sneak out to dance. It will be amazing... You shall not tell anyone about this! I have only told Phoebe about that kind of stuff so don't tell anyone!" Helga couldn't believe that she opened that much to Arnold all in one time and was so settle about it. No body ones that Helga G. Patki is like that, nobody but Phoebe.
"Don't worry Helga, I won't tell anyone but that's a good way to do it I guess." Helga looked up at the roof as well with her hand behind her head. Relaxed Helga slowly closed her eyes, imaging that blue ghost of a character that Gerald made up making her open her eyes again.
"Ummm Arnold?" Helga asked not ready to suck up her pride. " I'm kinda scared... Not a lot... I'm Helga you know I'm not scared of anything..." Helga blushed a bit confessing to Arnold. Arnold snickered to Helga a little then faced her again.
"Oh Helga you will be okay. Don't worry about anything." Arnold was happy to hear her say that she was scared but he still felt bad for her. He was tired though and needed sleep, he knew that Helga would keep him up all night of he didn't do something.
"Helga look at me" Helga looked at Arnold and saw his hand open for hers. Blushing Helga slowly lifted her hand and slid it into his. Feeling the warmth of Arnold's hand comfort Helga in more ways then one. Arnold gripped on to her hand.
"Do you think you can go to sleep now?" Arnold closed his eyes while still facing Helga. Helga closing her eyes she smiled.
"Yeah Arnold. Goodnight" Helga relaxed her body, letting her curves form into the bed.
"You know Helga, this isn't the only story the Gerald has to offer." Arnold giggled.
"Goodnight."
