It was lunch time and Arnold was seating with Gerald, Harold, Josh and Raul. The boys were having discussions about Rhonda's party.

"Yeah I heard Rhonda's Birthday party will be huge with DJ and dancing, it's suppose to end by midnight" Said Harold
"When is the party again Harold?"
Asked Gerald
"In a couple of days, why are you going? I heard everyone is invited" Replied Harold
"I may take Phoebe" Said Gerald

At that moment Arnold saw Andrew walking to the bending machines. Arnold got up and walked towards Andrew.
Gerald saw Arnold and followed him.
"Where're you going Arnold?"
"I need to get something's straight" Replied Arnold.
"Okay man, just don't lose it" Said Gerald
As Gerald returned to the table with the guys, Arnold walked to reach Andrew...

Andrew was trying to slide a dollar bill on the bending machine, when he saw Arnold standing next to him. "Do you want to get something? I'll be done in a minute" Said Andrew to Arnold
"I want to talk to you" Arnold look serious.
"About what?" Asked Andrew while looking at the bending machine
"About Helga" Said Arnold
"Oh yeah, well there's nothing to talk about"
Said Andrew while bending to get a candy bar.
"I'll go straight to the point, I don't want you around Helga."  Demanded Arnold.

Andrew stood up to look at Arnold in the face.
"Look Arnold you look like a nice guy, but I'm not backing up from Helga just because you have feelings for her." Responded Andrew.

Arnold step closer to Andrew.
"I didn't ask you about my feelings, just stay away from her" Said Arnold again.
"Sorry but I'm not" Replied Andrew and walked away.

Arnold got upset and he stepped in front of Andrew and said.
"Look I don't know you, and you don't know us, so if you want to get friendly with someone you better start looking somewhere else, she's not for you." 

Andrew smile looking down almost making fun of Arnold.
"Us? There is no us between you and Helga, she's not yours and like I said, I won't stop talking to Helga...I like Her and I care about her."

Something inside Arnold's mind exploded and grabbed Andrew by the collar almost picking him up and said straight to his face.
"I don't want you hurting Helga!!!"
Gerald saw Arnold grabbing Andrew and run towards him and pulled him off.
"Come on man, stopped this!!" Gerald yelled pulling Arnold away and dragging him outside the cafeteria.

Some of the students notice a commotion between Andrew and Arnold and the word quickly spread through the cafeteria.

Meanwhile Gerald was trying to calm down Arnold.
"Man, What are you doing, do you want to get suspended for fighting?!" Asked Gerald
"He just said he likes Helga!!" Said Arnold raising his voice still very angry
"You know Arnold this is not the place nor time to discuss this, get your act together and will talk later." Said Gerald
The bell rung and it was time to go class.

After school Helga and Phoebe met at the bus.
"Helga I wanted to talk to you" Said Phoebe
"What's up Phoebe." Replied Helga
"Oh what a cute teddy bear, who gave it to you was it Arnold?" Phoebe asked.
Helga rolled her eyes.
"No I wish, Andrew gave it to me this morning."

"How sweet of him, oh Helga the reason I wanted to talk to you was about Andrew... I heard Arnold got very upset at him, so much that he pulled him by the collar and Gerald had to dragged Arnold outside the cafeteria."
Helgas's eyes widened.
"What, are you sure! Phoebe Arnold couldn't have done it..." Said Helga very surprised.
