I had a message with the question if my art is visible online. Yes it does but it doesn't contain any Hey! Arnold fanart. Also apologies I didn't answer back since I have no idea how it all works on Fanfic. Even tho I am a member for quite some years. But when there is art, I will share a link. Promise!

Anyway... chapter 6 is here and I had trouble to write it since I need to build up the story line for the big event what is going to happen in the future!

Enjoy!


'' This is so cute, Gerald.''

'' Yea but we need to wake them up. Did you made your picture?''

'' Yes. Helga will be so happy.''

Gerald and Phoebe sat on the sofa, leaning over the seat, looking down on the 2 sleeping lovebirds.

'' Oooh Arnold…'' sang Gerald and Arnold stirred in his sleep.

'' Wakey wakey Helga….'' giggled Phoebe.

'' One more minute, Olga…'' muttered Helga as she snuggled more into Arnold.

Gerald and Phoebe were silently laughing, those two were to innocent for their own good.

'' Yo wake up! The game will start in an hour.'' said Gerald.

Arnold and Helga sat up right away, noticing Gerald and Phoebe next to them on the sofa.

Helga yawned and rubbed her eyes while Arnold stretched himself. '' How late is it, Gerald?'' he asked.

'' 10:30 am. First we get our hiking with the teacher. The game is later. We got you breakfast. After all the effort you guys took to ''clean up'', we let you guys sleep a little longer. '' said Gerald with a tone in his voice and Arnold raised an eyebrow.

'' What are you talking about?''

'' Hands above the waist… Yea right.'' grinned Gerald. '' You're so soft… Helga..'' he teased further.

'' You heard us?!'' shouted Helga and Arnold at the same time, blushing badly and Gerald and Phoebe were laughing.

'' Congratulations for not being virgins anymore, you two.'' laughed Gerald.

'' What are you talking about, Geraldo? I am still a virgin like Holy Maria herself.'' said Helga flushed.

'' Yea right, like I will believe that.'' said Gerald and Helga throw him a dead glare.

'' What do you mean, Helga? said Phoebe, trying to keep calm seeing her best friends face all in a scowling embarrassment.

'' How the hell can we have sex if there is a boxer short of Arnold, my short and slip between us?'' asked Helga with her arms crossed.

Gerald placed a tray with breakfast in front of them. '' What? But it really sounded that you two were doing it.''

'' Gerald, remember when you called me and said you came accidentally in your pants because you and Phoebe were rubbing against each other?'' asked Arnold and both girls giggled. Gerald turned red when Arnold said that so blunt.

'' Hey! Come on man, no need -… wait, you 2 were just doing that?'' asked Gerald.

'' Euh, yes. Why?'' asked Arnold and Gerald lost it, holding is stomach from laughing.

'' I better warn the boarding house… If you two really going for it, the whole neighborhood will know it…'' laughed Gerald. '' You two are way to loud!''

'' Geraldo, stop it before you will meet Old Betsy here.'' said Helga flushed as she stood up. ''You are not being fair here, who asked us to stay outside yesterday?''

'' Okay, okay. I get it. Geez.'' said Gerald when he saw he was getting in danger. '' But hey, just wait when you two go outside.''

'' You two might prepare yourself. This morning it was about you two.'' said Phoebe while she look away. Arnold was standing now, looking for his shorts and put it on.

'' About the dancing and the kissing, I guess.'' said Arnold while putting his shorts on.

'' Yes. It seems Nadine told Rhonda and she is throwing a fit that it is impossible.'' said Phoebe.

'' Princess is always throwing a fit. I don't worry about her. By the way, Pheebs, Miss Perfect knows.'' said Helga while walked to the bathroom and closed the door.

'' That chick know about you two?!'' blurted Gerald out. '' How did that happen?''

'' She saw that I said I love you too to Helga after dancing.'' said Arnold while combing his hair. '' She will be quiet about it.''

'' Arnold, you and Helga are awfully relaxed about it.'' said Gerald when Helga came back and Arnold went to the bathroom.

'' Problems with that, tall hair boy?'' asked Helga while she put her hair in a ponytail.

'' What do you think, Pheebs? '' asked Gerald and Phoebe was thinking.

'' If they are fine with it and don't see harm, what is the reason to worry?'' said Phoebe and Arnold came back from the bathroom.

He went to his bag and took out a leather case with his multi tool and a mini kit with first aid supplies which he add on his belt.

'' Hey, we are not in the jungle bro.'' stated Gerald. '' And I got already our baseball equipment.''

'' But it is still a forest.'' said Arnold and Gerald shook his head while smiling.

'' Do we have everything?'' asked Phoebe. '' No I forgot one thing.'' said Helga.

She walked to Arnold and kissed him. He kissed her back, his arms around her.

'' Really?'' asked Gerald and Phoebe giggled. Helga released her lips from Arnold's and smiled: '' Good morning Football Head.'' – '' Good morning Love.''

'' Hurry U-uup!'' said Gerald as he opened the door.

'' Ooh shut up Gerald.'' said Arnold as he took Helga's hand and place a kiss on it before he walked to the door and go outside with him.

Helga walked to Phoebe and they giggled. '' You must be really happy, Helga.'' – '' I am.''


The hike was going on and while most of the people were recovering from their hang overs, Rhonda was trying to find a connection or a piece of a puzzle what she had missed.

Arnold had returned, everyone was happy and with the party, everyone was dancing. Boys were switching with the girlsand otherwise.
But there were some things that kept Rhonda nagging.

One: Helga dared to go short dressed, even wearing a daring slip with lace. Two: She had danced with Arnold in a challenging dance. Three: When she was out, they had danced again but sensual what she had heard. Four: Which was the most complete confused matter of fact: they had kissed!

Rhonda look behind her and while Gerald and Phoebe were holding hands, Helga and Arnold were just walking in front of them. No spark to be seen.

'' Nadine, you were sure Arnold had been drinking right?'' she asked her best friend.

'' Yes, a few beers I believe. Look Rhonda, I have a yellow ladybug.'' said Nadine and showed her jar.

'' That's…. cute.'' said Rhonda with a face and kept thinking again. Helga didn't drink so Rhonda couldn't blame the alcohol.

Rhonda was so focused on the possibilities what happened that she didn't even noticed they had reached the end of the hiking and they were now in an open space area with a baseball field.

'' Hell to the yes! This is a field!'' said Helga full of excitement. '' Whillikers. I am ready to go!'' said Stinky. '' Yea me too!'' said Arnold.

'' We are not, give use a moment.'' said Harold as he sat down.

Arnold grinned, same old Harold. He grabbed his water bottle and placed it on his mouth.

'' Shortman, is it true you were scamming with Pataki on the dance floor?'' asked Rhonda rude and Helga look up, hearing her name.

Phoebe was processing what happened. Arnold spit his water out. Gerald stood up to confront Rhonda but Helga stopped him.
She wondered what Arnold would do or say. Also the other look up by the question, some people did want to know what was going on, except for Lila.

What kind of question was that? How she asked it, it sounded it was very cheap between him and Helga which made him pissed from inside.
Yet she couldn't understand what was going on but that didn't gave her the right to talk like that.

Arnold was not going to give any more fuel then needed and prepared himself.

'' Yes, I have been kissing with Helga.'' he answered and Helga her heart skipped some beats. She didn't expect he would admit he did.

'' Why? Why kissing the girl who made your life miserable?'' she asked.

'' What is the reason for asking me those questions?'' asked Arnold while he was checking his baseball glove.

'' Because I want to know, Arnold.'' said Rhonda with some dominance.

'' There won't be any benefits for you nor me nor the others when those questions will be answered so I end the conversation here.'' said Arnold as he look at Rhonda.

'' Unbelievable, running away like that.'' said Rhonda with her nose in the air.

'' I am not running away. I am just simply not spending time on this nonsense. Come on guys, lets warm up.'' said Arnold as he walk to the field.

'' Well done, Princess.'' laughed Helga sarcastic to Rhonda as she passed by with Gerald and Phoebe.

'' I will get what I want… something is going on.'' gritted Rhonda when she saw the baseball group walking off to the field.


After the games and hiking back to their camp, some of them went for a swim in the lake, other ones sat around the pit.

Eugene of course had trip over a branch that was sticking out over the path and had scraped his leg.

Arnold had given him first aid and now Arnold was putting some gloves on and was unwrapping the bandage to take a good look.

When the bandage was off a large abrasion was shown.

'' I need the bigger first aid kit.'' said Arnold. '' I will get it.'' said Sid.

'' Arnold, be honest. I need to go to the hospital, aren't I?'' asked Eugene and Arnold gave him a smile.

'' No Eugene but it does need a good clean up.'' said Arnold and start to clean up the blood from Eugene's leg. '' Just say when I hurt you somewhere.''

'' I am fine. You will be a fine doctor, Arnold. Even it is for animals, they will be happy with you.'' said Eugene and Sheena sat next to him. '' You better take it easy this evening, snugglebear.'' said Sheena and Arnold's mind went blank for a sec as Eugene gave a response: '' I will, don't worry bumblebee.''

Arnold smiled. So it was true when Gerald told him that those 2 were going out. And that they were that innocent that you truly could be embarrassment with their behavior towards each other.

Sid came back with the kit and sat next to Arnold. '' Need help with anything?'' he asked.

'' Yea, if you can held up his leg higher then I can start adding some lotion on it that prevents itching and let it heal quicker. Put some gloves on.'' explained Arnold.

'' Damn, that's some nasty wound, Eugene.'' said Sid, seeing the open skin and new blood flowing out.

'' It's fine Sid.'' said Eugene. '' I got much worse in the past.''

'' Yea. But I need to say you have been doing better since you go out with Sheena.'' said Sid and Eugene smiled.

'' Yea, she brings the best out of me.'' he answered.

'' You guys need to catch me up. I did know from Gerald that you two were together but seeing all of you back, I guess there is more.'' said Arnold while adding some disinfection and Eugene made a face.

'' Let's see. Harold and Patty are together for like what? Four years I guess.'' said Eugene and Arnold chuckled. ''I could see that happen, those 2 are perfect together.''

'' Torvald is going to a colleague in practice to become a plumber.'' said Sid and Arnold look up. '' Really? So he found actually something he like?''

'' What about you Arnold? Any girlfriends back then in San Lorenzo?'' asked Sheena.

'' No. I didn't had simply the time for it and the girls there are… how do you call that? They are full of temperament. Not my types at all.'' chuckled Arnold as he start to bandage the leg of Eugene.

'' Too bad. But hey! If you had a girlfriend there, you would never have returned so I am glad you are back. '' said Sid and the four of them smiled.

'' All done Eugene, keep it dry and I will put new bandage tomorrow. Refrai-'' explained Arnold until they heard Rhonda.

'' UNBELIEVABLE! HOW COULD THEY?!'' she shouted and every look at a storming Rhonda and behind her Nadine.

'' What's going on Rhonda? Why are you yelling like that?'' asked Sheena.

'' Apparently, all first years of college are here. We are the 1B class. Now it seems 1C comes here to swim because their lake has Cyanobacteria.'' said Rhonda angry.
'' I thought this was our private lake.''

'' Rhonda, see it from the bright side…'' started Arnold.

'' Oh there he goes..'' said Stinky who had joined them because of the ruckus. '' Mister Sunnyside is back…''

'' Who knows you might find a boyfriend.'' ended Arnold and Rhonda started thinking. Was he trying to distract her? But she decided to play along.

'' Yea… smart one Arnold. Maybe it has something good with this.''


While everyone worried, it seems 1C was a chill class and everybody was just having fun in the water.

The teachers were sitting aside the lake with some students who rather sit and watch then getting wet.

Nadine showed some interest in a guy who had a tattoo of a mantis on his arm and Rhonda was in conversation with a guy who was wearing glasses from an expensive brand.

Gerald, Arnold, Stinky and Harold were looking around while standing in the water. They were looking what Phoebe, Helga and Lila were doing.

While Phoebe and Lila were wearing bikini's with frills, was Helga wearing a tankini, black with pink stripes and her stomach was showing.

Her cleavage was half shown. Arnold's cheeks flushed lightly.

'' Ooh the girls are getting hit on.'' said Harold. A guy was walking towards the girls. '' Gerald, keep an eye on your girl.''

'' Naaah I don't worry man.'' said Gerald. '' It's either Lila or Helga they want to hit on.''

Arnold gave Gerald a death glare and shrugged his shoulders. '' Don't worry.'' whispered Gerald.

'' Want to go outside and get some fresh air with me? You just took my breath away.'' said a slime ball of a guy to Helga and she raised her eye brow.

'' Punch in the face or sarcastic answer?'' asked Harold. '' Five buck for punch in the face.'' said Stinky.

'' Alright, 5 bucks she start with an sarcastic answer. But in the end she hit him.'' said Harold.

'' You guys are betting about this?'' asked Arnold surprised.

'' They do this for 2 years now, Arnold. And to be honest… I even join sometimes.'' said Gerald and Arnold was a bit shocked hearing that. Then he heard Helga:

'' Sorry, which language are you speaking? I only hear bullshit.'' she replied to the guy and turned around as the guy grabbed her arm.

Arnold want to make a move towards them until Helga raised her right fist, turned around and slam it against his face.
The guy stumbles back and held his hand against his cheek.

'' Pataki! What is the meaning of this?'' yelled the teacher from the sideline.

'' He was hitting on me, I told no and he didn't want to accept it and grabbed my arm. I was defending myself.'' explained Helga.

'' Why you…'' started the guy as the mentor of 1C stood up: '' Mr. Hilton, out of the water now. You are going to stay next to me and Mr. Henderson.''

'' Watch yourself…'' hissed Hilton and Helga stick her tongue out to him.

Gerald, Stinky and Harold were swimming towards the girls as Arnold walked slowly towards them, meeting the guy half way.

Arnold stop in his tracks and as the guy pass by he says: '' She's mine.'' And started to swim after his friends.

Hilton turned around, watching Arnold standing next to Helga. '' How interesting.''


Don't ask but the name Hilton sounded good enough for a jerk like that. And yes, another cliffhanger.
But do know that chapter 7 is going to be very interesting and... filled with another mature content moment.
