When Darkness Boomerangs ( Hey Arnold Fanfiction )

Hit The Books

( Flashback )

School was almost over, there were just a couple more classes and it would have all ended 

(ALL HAD ENDED!) 

Helga was going through her locker making sure she had all her books for the next class to come. She was pulling out her notebooks for literature while lost in thought. "I wonder what that buffoon of a teacher is going to put on us today," She thought.

She was wondering about, thinking deeply and had an expression on her face that was like a deer in headlights.

Her eyes gazed about and her arms still holding onto the cold blue locker door as if she was lost on an island of thoughts somewhere.

Then suddenly her eyes fell upon the one guy of her dreams, the boy with the cornflower hair. He was walking down the hall with Gerald having what looked to be a short a conversation together. 

They both walked pass her and continued on to class together, like they had little to no clue that Helga was even there. But Helga didn't care, she just couldn't help but just to stare away.

All that she could think of was how good he looked, and how cute that smile he had placed upon his stupid football-shaped head. She couldn't help but stare at him all the way.

"Hey, Helga" Called a little Asian girl walking up to her from the far right. Helga quickly spun around to find that it was her best friend Phoebe standing next to her with her little but cute smile and gleeful eyes looking straight at her 

with her loads of homework paper and books held in her hands to the side. "Oh hey, Pheebs" As she tried to snap out of the daydreaming she just had moments ago of Arnold. 

"So Helga, Are you planning on going to the dance Friday?" Asked Phoebe with a small but noticeable smile.

It hit Helga, She realized that there was going to be a Winter School Dance next Friday night at the school gym. "Oh, Criminy! I completely forgot." She thought. She had been waiting for this dance to happen all year. 

She had been waiting for the right moment to maybe ask Arnold to go with her as the girls did the asking for the dance this year. But at the same time, she was scared to ask him for that matter as she figured that Lila was going to ask him first 

and that he would probably say yes to her instead, She wanted the chance to finally go to the dance with Arnold and express her love for him just being herself for once and not a bully.

She slammed her locker closed. The sounds of the loud hard bang echoed throughout the halls like a cringing gunshot. She turned to face her friend "Oh sorry Pheebs, I had totally forgotten" As she looked at Phoebe with a rather unhappy face. 

"It's okay, but are you planning on going?, I'm really hoping you can come, Helga," Asked Phoebe, waiting for an answer and hoping that she will say yes.

"I don't know Pheebs, I don't think I could" "Why not Helga? Are you just saying that because you're scared to ask ice cream to the dance?"

Said Phoebe adjusting her glasses while looking at Helga with a look of curiosity. "No, I mean maybe, I don't know Pheebs I just know I'll get all crazy if I go to the dance and see Arnold with Lila" 

"Helga, now it's your chance to get your mind off Arnold. Why don't you go with someone else instead? Why don't we go as a group? You, me?" Asked phoebe 

"Okay, I'll think about it, Now we better get to picking up our paste or we'll be late for class come on Pheebs!" She took phoebe's by the hand and run to class.

Class began and Helga sat in her same old seat behind Arnold. She then took some of her notebook paper and curled it up, chewed it and aimed it right at Arnold football-shaped head. 

"Just ignore her," Arnold thought as he ran his finger through his golden blonde hair and sat back into his seat to try to get more comfortable. The teacher then sat up from his chair 

"Class I have a surprise for you all, I'm am going to have a contest on writing. I want all of you to write me something that will inspire me." Said the teacher as he looked at the students with a big cheesy smile

"And if you inspire me with your writing, you could win 100 dollars and a free pass to the dance this Friday what do you say?"

The class immediately started getting railed up, with everyone talking and whispering to each other. You could hear people left and right talking about how they were going to win the contest. 

Ronda was talking about how she was going to buy her some fancy new shoes with the money. Sid and Stinky were saying how amazing it would be to get into the dance for free and Phoebe over on the other end near the back roll was talking to Gerald about how she needed the extra cash for this new book at the bookstore. 

They all had these cheesy facial expressions caked on there faces, as if they had all just won the lottery or something "Sounds ever so amazing Mr. Simmons" Said the redhead in the far left with a happy and gleeful sparkles in her eyes.

"Good, well starting today I want you all after school, to write me something inspiring, and come back tomorrow with it okay?" Everyone nodded in response 

"What does the story haft to be about?" Said Phoebe placing her eyes upon the teacher "Anything that comes to your mind that could make a great story!" The bell rang indicating that it was the end of class. "Oh and don't forget to sign up for the Winter Dance, sign up sheets are at my desk, have a blessed day everyone!" 

Everyone started rushing out the classroom like they were in some type of hurry to write the paper that very minute but Helga on the other hand, waited for everyone to leave to leave herself. 

When most of the students had already left the room Helga slowly made her way up from her seat and walk in a slow paste to the door "Oh Helga" Called the teacher from behind her "I'm really looking forward into seeing what you write" 

Helga just stood there turned herself to face him and answer "Thanks, Mr. Simmons" and turned back around to the door and left.
