Chapter 11
Everybody rolled there eyes at Gerald's big announcement that their at the campsite. Arnold just smiled and turned around to take a a better look at the campsite. It had a fire pit that was located at the corner of the site, on it left it had a wooden picnic table. The whole campsite was isolated by huge pine trees except a little trail that was up a small hill to get to the out houses and the fire wood.
On the right side of the site was a huge rock that they can climb if they really wanted to. The ground was gravel, not dirt. The stream was across the camp site, walking descents of 2 minutes. Looking up you saw huge mountains about 4 or 5 of them in the background, with hills of trees under them. Since it was dark Arnold could only see the outline but it was still amazing.
"Okay I am starving here, we skipped out on lunch and I need a hot dog or a bagel or something." Helga was pretty angry, the whole way there she couldn't get her mind off of Arnold. Helga was also pretty hungry, all of the thinking that she did got her tummy rumbling.
"Okay Helga you go get some firewood while we set up camp. It's just up that little trail between the trees." Phoebe said in a polite tone while getting a tarp to hang over the fire pit.
"Make a fire while your at it. Since u don't want to do anything Helga, make it snappy too. I'm also pretty hungry." Gerald snickered at Helga as he was taking all the stuff out of the trailer.
"Okay, okay Geraldo. Ill be back in a jiff." Helga started to climb the small trail, starting to climb Arnold grabbed Helga hand. A huge wave of heat came to Helga as she blushed and looked Arnold's way.
"Do you need any help Helga? I can give you a hand..." Arnold looked at Helga for a chance to get her to talk and a chance for him to apologize to Helga for his behavior in the jeep.
"Sure whatever floats your boat Arnold." Helga took her hand out of Arnold and started to head up the trail again. Arnold smiled as he followed behind her.
"Well Phoebe there they go again... Without us. Making us do all the work for their love adventure." Gerald signed as Phoebe once again giggled at Gerald.
"Well Gerald what would you expect from the two of them. They are meant to be together. Wasn't this the plan for the camping trip? I thought we where gonna get them together, then maybe we could spend more time all together." Phoebe took out the stuff for the tent that Helga and Arnold are to use tonight.
Taking out stuff to make supper Gerald laughed at his girlfriend. "Is that all Phoebe? I thought we where gonna tell them something about us as well?You can't hide it forever, Helga's your best friend. She's bound to figure it out."
"Oh Gerald there is a time and place for everything. We will both tell them, and I hope they will understand our reasoning." Phoebe gave a sad look to her boyfriend. Gerald also have a sad look, he walked over to his small girlfriend and have her a hug. Putting a hand on her head he stroked Phoebes black hair.
"It's okay babe. They will understand, their our best friends! I'm sure we will visit them and they will visit us." Pulling away from Phoebe he keeled down a bit and took Phoebes hands. "Don't be sad, be happy! This is the moment you always wanted, I'm proud of you and I bet Helga and Arnold are going to be happy for you too!"
Phoebe gave a smile to her boyfriend, she gave him another hug. As they began to part to kiss Helga yelled out.
"Look out below! The fire wood is coming down!"
Rolling their eyes Gerald still gave a kiss to his girlfriend and walked back to the trailer.

Mean while back where Arnold and Helga where getting wood Helga smiled at herself.
"Well Arnold this isn't so bad. Our campsite is just right there. We can just throw the logs down the trail." Helga and Arnold got to the top of the small hill, spotting the fire wood about 10feet away from the trail. The fire wood was in a wooden house like frame. It was staked to the top with fire wood since nobody was really there to camp.
"Yeah we are pretty lucky hu Helga." Arnold said while he started to walk to the wood. There was an awkward silence as the walked the ten foot walk. As they stopped at the wood Arnold inhaled a deep breath and began to talk.
"Well Helga that was a pretty... Fun game in the car... I just wanted to apologize about the way I acted in the jeep... I was acting foolish and I want to say sorry... So I'm sorry." Helga smiled and looked at Arnold, it was still very dark outside but Helga knew he was blushing.
"Ah don't sweat it Arnold. I act childish all the time, you can't beat me." Helga grabbed a couple of logs, and walked to the trail. Helga was about the say something funny when Arnold's phone went off. Looking back Arnold put down the logs he was carrying to check his phone. "Crimany Arnold! Who have you been texting?"
"Oh well it's just Lila. She keeps texting me about her relationship problems. Apparently Arnie left her and she needs someone to talk to." Arnold didn't look up as he started started to text back, Helga couldn't believe it.
'Lila! Why is he texting Lila! They broke up... And she went to Arnie! I hate that bitch! Why is he texting her?... Wait did he say Arnie broke up with her! No!' Helga's mind was in a hurricane in thoughts. Shaking out of it she saw Arnold put away his phone, he started to walk up to her with a smile on his face.
'Okay clam down old girl... Don't sound like your jealous or mad.. Act like you.' Arnold looked at Helga confused
"Helga? Are you there? Hello?" Arnold started to worry until Helga blinked to see Arnold in front of her.
"I'm fine Arnold. Just a little tired is all." Helga walked to the edge of the trail and yelled. "Lookout below! Fire wood is coming down!"
-
After 5 more trips to get the wood Arnold and Helga finally came down from the trail with another load.
"You guys came just in time! We got everything shorted out." Phoebe came beaming at them with the whole camp site filled out perfectly. The table cloth was on the picnic table, the trailer was laid out nice, and the fire put had chairs surrounding it. Plastic chairs and some cloth ones.
"Wow Phebes you really went all out on this didn't you?"Helga laughed as she set down the the fire wood by the camp fire pit. "I still don't see a fire though, and we need to have a fire." Helga sat in one of the chairs, she laid back her head starting to relax.
"I told you Helga that was your job. Me and Arnold will cut the wood but you gotta start it." Gerald had an axe relaxing on his right shoulder, with another axe in his left hand.
"God... Fine but I need chopped wood before I start anything. These lanterns suck." Phoebe had set up lanterns everywhere for light since they don't have any without a fire.
Helga left her seat to get some old news paper from the trailer, Arnold whined at he started to walk toward Gerald with the axe. Stepped out of the trailer a couple seconds later Helga had gotten some matches and old newspaper. As she started to crumble up the paper she saw Arnold swinging the axe to chop the wood.
Helga's eyes grew wide with excitement as she watched Arnold swing the axe. Dropping faster in her day dream she watched as Arnold smiled at Helga while he cut the wood, sweat dripping off his face. Taking off his white sweaty t shirt he revealed his upper body. With his nice toned arms that where Nicely tanned, his belly that had a delicious six back that you would want to eat off of. Helga's mouth dropped as she took in all she could. Turning around to throw his shirt on the ground, Helga saw his amazing back. Wide, big and Muscular. Thinking to herself all the scratch marks she could do to that body. Turing back to pick up the axe he dropped he walked toward Helga. Sweat dripping off his chin and chest. Hovering over her in the chair she was in, she trembled.
"Are you enjoying the show Helga?" Arnold said in a hush tone only she would hear. Sitting up straight she hovered over his lips.
"Of course I am." Pulling him down by using her legs that wrapped around the body of Arnold to make him closer to her. Helga put her arms around Arnold's neck to lean him closer to her. Arnold pulled away, opening her eyes she looked confused. Trying again he pulled away again.
"What the hell is going on?"
Out of Helga world Arnold was in Helga grip and couldn't get out of it. Helga's legs where wrapped around his waist and her arms on his neck. Trying to look back at Gerald he pleaded.
"Help me.. She's... So strong." Arnold looked at Helga again to see that she was aiming for another kiss, Arnold ducked the kiss.
"Hahahahaha! Oh man Arnold you got at do something before she plants one on ya. I'm not getting near that area, when Helga finds out what she's doing then hells gonna break lose." Gerald backed away still giggling at Arnold.
"Thanks man. You are such a good friend." Arnold's face was millimeters away from Helgas as she gave him a sweet smile.
'I wanted our first kiss to be special... I didn't want it like this.' Arnold thought to himself as he leaned in to give Helga the kiss she's been wanting in her day dream. Starting to close his eyes Arnold leaned in more to give the kiss, his eyes have lidded he goes slower and slower. When their lips start to brush each others, Phoebe walked down the trail from the bathroom and saw what was happening.
"NO!" Phoebe screamed as she ran toward the two, Helga snapped out of her day dream and saw Arnold on top of her. Their lips touching slightly, Helga jerked up and released Arnold. Arnold dropped to the ground, he looked up at Helga and saw that she was 50 shades of red. Arnold was the same but more embarrassed then anything. Gerald blurted out laughing at both of them and his girlfriend for making the moment to funny for him to watch. Phoebe walked toward Gerald and glared at him. Surrendering to his girlfriend he pointed to the wood.
"Where done chopping the wood babe... " still glaring at him she saw Helga as still as a statue and as red as a tomato.
"Well ummm Helga. Would you please make the fire for us?" Phoebe out her small hand on Helga's shoulder, Helga shook and saw who's hand it was. Relaxed she looked up at Phoebe and nodded.
-
Once the fire was complete the four adults forgot that anything had happened and made supper for themselves. Finishing eating Phoebe and Gerald wanted to go to bed since it was late.
"Well you love birds I'm gonna go to bed, will my lady be joining me?" Phoebe giggled and took Gerald's hand that he gave her.
"Goodnight you guys. Don't let the bed bugs bite." Gerald gave an evil look and walked into the trailer, Phoebe followed.
"Well Helga I just we should call it a night as well." Arnold took a step to the bucket of water that Gerald gotten for them a while back.
"Yeah okay, just don't put the water out until I get in the trailer." Helga started to walk toward the trailer, Arnold just sat in his chair and looked up at the stars. Trying to find the Little Dipper Helga yelled at the trailer and walked back to the fire.
"What's the matter?" Arnold asked looking a little worried.
"Those assholes locked us out." Helga was not impressed, she sat back down on the chair she was in before. Arnold looked at Helga like she was mad. Walking to the trailer door himself he tried to open the door. Locked. Getting annoyed he took out his phone to see more then 20 messages from Lila. Avoiding them he texted Gerald.
"Dude this isn't cool. Let us in." Arnold sent the message. Minutes went by when he texted back.
"Ha well me and Phoebe wanted some alone time tonight. There's a small tent Phoebe set up for you tonight. Have a goodnight a sleep Arnold. And you can thank me later ;)"
Arnold's eyes went wide, Looking around the campsite he saw a small tent tied down by that wooden table. Signing he told him self
"Well... This is gonna be a long night."
