Hey Arnold: Whatever happens in New York

Know your feelings!

Arnold wakes up,and sits up. He sighs with relief. Luckily last night Helga hadn't laid on top of him again in a crazy sleeping fit. His relief is quickly ended once the hotel phone starts to ring and he can't get up because he happened to latch onto He,a while they were asleep.'Well that's nice isn't it?'he thinks to himself sarcastically.'Wow,Helga really is rubbing off on me.' He slowly inches himself from her until he falls out the bed. He groans in pain,and goes to the phone to call the number back."Hello?"the receiver answers."Hi,did you call this number?"Arnold asks loudly,but then catches himself,talking lower. He looks to see Helga. All she did was moan a bit and turn onto her stomach."Yea, it's Gerald,buddy. I called you to let you know that Sid,Stinky,Harold and I were going to convince Mr. S if we could rent out a pool to have a party. You wanna come help?" Arnold thinks for second. He loved swimming,but seeing Helga in her bikini still wasn't wearing off him,he could feel his face heat up this early! 'But come on,a pool party in New York? Hell yes!'he thinks."Okay."he says."Great buddy,we'll ask him later on in the day,so be prepared for a good argument."Gerald says."Okay,bye." Arnold replies and hangs up. He decides to get ready now,so he wouldn't have to wait on Helga today. He grabs his stuff and hops into the shower,getting ready for his day.
Helga wakes up with a yawn and looks around.'Where's Arnold?'she thinks.'Its funny he's my first thought in the morning.'another thought follows up. She hears the light pitter-patter of the shower and gets out the bed. She makes the bed,gets her stuff together,and steps out onto the balcony. She was wearing really short blue shorts and a a blue spaghetti strap t-shirt to match. She stretches,arching her back,and bends onto the railing to watch the view."So beautiful.."she mumbles to herself. She loved the sound of cars honking and people talking. She loved the tall buildings and morning sky. Heck,she even loved the smell of engines and hotdogs being sold from down below. She then hears a whistle."Looking good up there shorty!"She looks below to see a man on the room next to her,but one room below,sitting on a chair on his balcony. He was had tan skin,black hair,was obese,and the white T-shirt he had on had hair and food stains. At least,she hoped it was food... "Morning Helga,you can get in the shower."Arnold says as he slides the balcony door open."Thank god!"Helga exclaims and rushes inside before the strange man could say anything else to her. Arno,d looks around the balcony in confusion aa to why Helga was acting strangely."A man below was trying to hit on me. He was clearly is his forties."Helga says as she carries her stuff inside the bathroom,both blondes not noticing she dropped her bra. After her shower,He,ha starts to get dressed,but realizes that she dropped her bra. She curses to herself."Arnold,could you turn around and not look at the bathroom door until I say it's okay? I left something on the floor and I need it."she says through the door."Why? Just let me go get it,where-" "No Arnold. I am completely able to get what I left. Please just turn around."Helga interrupts."But what is it?"Arnold asks."It doesn't matter,just let me get it."Helga says,growing aggravated."No,I can't get it,what is it?" Helga is quiet for a second,full of aggravation. She waits for another sound so she can burst."Helga?"Arnold asks. Wrong move."It's my bra okay! I left it on the floor on my way here! Just give me my damn bra Football Head!"she exclaims. Arnold blushes from embarrassment,and picks up the pink bra. Helga snatches it and shuts the door."Stupid Football Head.."he hears her mumble.'I shouldn't have been so persistent.'he thinks to himself,blushing.
Around two-o-clock, Mr. Simmons calls all the students to come downstairs to start their day. He explains that they were going to Central Park for most of their time,and then later on they would go to South street sea port to go look at fireworks. All the students pike into the busses and head to Central Park. Once arriving,everyone stays in their groups,and try not to leave so far. They eat,study the plants,exercise,and anything fun that they could do. Gerald manages to pull Arnold away for a moment as the girls got Italian ice for both boys and themselves."What's wrong Arnold? You seem so shaken up lately. Is everything between you and Helga okay?"he asks. Arnold sighs. He explains the bikini incidents,bathroom incidents,and even this morning."Wow,I feel bad for you buddy."Gerald starts."I don't know how I could control myself in those situations. You're one bold kid. As I said last time,my theory is that you are falling in love with Helga. There's nothing more or less to it."Gerald states. Arnold thinks. The idea was really starting to get pass his doubts,and maybe kept was true.'He could be falling in love with Helga,right?' Both girls arrive with Italian ice."Enjoy!"Helga smiles and hands him a lemon cone."Thanks."he says and starts to eat it."Hey Pataki,what kind it yours?" Gerald asks,noticing her white ice come."Oh I have piña colada. I remember trying this back on a business trip with my dad when I was little."she answers."Hey,we leave in thirty minutes because it's getting dark,you wanna go ask Mr. Simmons about the thing?"Gerald asks Arnold."Oh,yea sure."Arnold agrees."We'll be back."he says. Both girls nod and turn to each other to start chatting. "Hey Mr. Simmons,can we ask you something?"Gerald asks."You already did."Mr. Simmons laughs at the cleverness of his teacher jokes. Gerald rolls his eyes internally."Anyway,since we have so much free time after the fireworks,we were wondering if we could rent out that local pool three blocks down tonight for a party."he suggest as Sid,Stinky,and Harold walks up agreeing."Well,I don't know...we don't have that kind of money." Mr. Simmons says."Well what if everyone helped pay?"Harold suggests."Yes,I assume that would be enough. But what would the school district say? And who would watch over you guys,because Ms. Velleto and I need to get back to the rooms by 7:00 for important matters."Mr. Simmons says. Arnold gives Mr. Simmons a look as to what,Ms. Velleto and him had to do,but ignores the feeling."They have life guards,and the pool is clearly safe."Gerald persuades."Hmm..okay,but keep it a surprise okay?"Mr. Simmons says. All the boys nod their heads and go back to their groups."What happened?"Helga asks."Nothing. You'll figure out soon enough."Arnold says. Helga gives both boys a look,but shrugs it off. Soon everyone starts walking to the busses to go see the fireworks at the port. Once both are boarded,they pull off to their destinations. Once there, everyone rushes out the bus to get good spots to watch. Unfortunately,Arnold's group wasn't as lucky."Ugh,I can't believe we have to stand here like this! My feet are killing me!" Helga exclaims."Well at least we can still see them."Phoebe points out as a red firework exploded in the sky. Phoebe moves closer to Gerald."Hey,how about we take a picture?"Gerald suggests to her."Sure!"she pulls out her purple picture and snaps a picture of Gerald and her. He puts her arm around her and looks at the picture."Nice."he says. Phoebe blushes at how close they are,but she's really happy. It was so romantic being so close and watching fireworks. Helga smiles,happy for her best friend."Hey let's take a picture!"She says really fast and pulls out her pink camera,drags Arnold a little closer,smiles,and snaps the photo. She goes to gallery and looks at it. She's smiling perfectly and Arnold looks a bit blinded and very confused."Oh my gosh!"she exclaims bursting in laughter."Hey,I wasn't ready!"Arnold points out."Okay,then let's take another."she says. They both pose together and smile for the picture. Helga looks at it in her phone."There. A lot better."she says happily. Phoebe giggles at her best friend and looks at the picture. She and Arnold really did look like a couple. For an hour the colorful fireworks burst through the air as Arnold and Helga mess around. Everyone gets back on the bus,sad that the day was already over."Now,now,students."Mr. Simmons says as he calms the restless students down."The day is not over yet. Some students have suggest having an all night pool party,and I agree! Just don't do anything you're not supposed to. Ms. Velleto and I won't be there because we have...ahem...important matters to attend to." Park and Arnold's group start snickering. The whole class cheer and shout."So we're going back to the hotel to get our supplies,then going to rent out the pool!"Mr Simmons says as ten bus pulls off.
After grabbing their supplies,the party already started and people are swimming. Mr. Simmons pulls Arnold away."Arnold,I really trust you so could you try to watch out for them?"he asks. Arnold hesitates."Please." Mr. Simmons pleads. Arnold sighs and agrees."Thank you."Mr. Simmons says and gets in a taxi with Ms. Velleto and drives to the hotel. The song "Sweet Nothing"by Calvin Harris booms through the pool as students went crazy. There were rainbow lights,smoke,and students running,swimming,and even making out. Arnold starts to panic and runs around to every wrong thing and tries to control it. After an hour of stressful pleading,Helga approaches Arnold." I doubt anyone here will calm down anytime soon,so I suggest you stop being a worry-wart and let loose."She says behind him. He jumps,"Don't do that. Anyway I guess you're right. Mr. Simmons is the adult,not me." Arnold says."Great,then...get in the pool!"Helga exclaims and pushes him in. After a second,Arnold bobs back up and wipes his eyes.'Oh I'm gonna get her for that!'he thinks to himself."Hey Arnold,take this!"Helga shouts and starts running to the pool and dives in on him. She drags him under and she keeps tapping him. He opens his eyes and look around. There were beautiful lights flashing inside the pool.'Wow.' He thinks and goes back up."Pretty right?"Helga asks."Yea."he breathes. He takes a look at Helga. She looked so beautiful. Her hair had a wet look,she smiled a beautiful smile,and the light from under the water gave her life."Football Head?"she asks."Huh?"he mumbles as he snaps out his daze."I never want these feelings to end."she says."I don't want being young to end." Arnold is shocked at how she's just expressing herself without any complications."Me either Helga,me either."he replies and smiles at her. Both blondes smile at each other,savoring the moment."Hello Arnold!"Lila greets cheerfully.'And the moment is over.'Helga thinks to her self and rolls her eyes."H-hi Lila."he says awkwardly."Isn't this party oh so great?! It's been ever so hot lately!"she says over dramatizing it by posing in a way where she was fanning herself and making her body jiggle a bit. Helga rolls her eyes once again."It is. Anyway I should-" "Hey you wanna have a swimming race?Lets have one!"Lila interrupts and hops in the pool. Arnold awkwardly agrees and gets ready to swim."Three,two,one,go!"Lila exclaims and they both start swimming to one end. Before Arnold can even reach the wall,Lila is all over him shouting"I'm drowning,Im drowning! Arnold help!" She keeps kicking and clinging onto him,her body purposely rubbing against his."Lila,Lila,LILA!"he exclaims and pulls her off him."It's okay,you're not drowning. We're only in four and a half feet."he says."Oh,Arnold thank you ever so much! You are the sweetest boy ever!"she says,voice sugarcoated.'Bruh' Helga thinks. She rolls her eyes so hard,she starts to float backwards in the water."What's wrong?"Arnold asks,swimming next to her."Lila! She's so fake,and I know you don't like spending time around her,so why don't you just say no?"Helga answers. Arnold sighs."Well you know how much of a gentleman I am."he says."Well gentlemen do say no. Like if someone sweetly asked to stab you right now,what would you say?"Helga asks,proving her point."Yes." Arnold answers in a stupid voice. Helga punches him on the shoulder."Crazy Football Head." She says."I'll be back,I'm going to go look for Phoebe." "Okay." Arnold says and floats against one the pool ladder. He watches Helga swim to her best friend.'Oh,Helga.'he thinks and smiles.
