Arabella's POV

"This is intense!" I gasped while munching on my popcorn and watched Henry and my dad play a game of ping-pong.

Lately, Henry and my dad have been challenging each other to a game of ping-pong and it's the most intense thing ever. I played it once, but I found out I am not trusted with the paddle because I just go around hitting everyone with it.

My head went back and forth as I followed the ball with my eyes, waiting for the anticipation of who will win.

"Come on, Henry!" I cheered, "take my dad down!"

"You're supposed to be on my side!" My dad protested to her.

"And you're supposed to be a responsible adult, I guess we don't get what we want!" I remarked and he rolled his eyes, still playing the game.

"You guys! Harrison Ford just crash-landed his airplane in the Jandy River!" Schwoz called from the monitor.

"This guy with the crashing, can't he learn how to fly that thing yet?" I scoffed with Henry and my dad laughing.

"Yeah, isn't this like his third plane crash?" My dad asked before he hit the ball back harder than usual and it zipped past Henry.

"Dah!" Henry groaned, watching it hit the door behind him.

"Henry, you idiot!" I complained. "You're supposed to hit the ball."

"I know," Henry exclaimed. "Thank you for the information, Bella!"

"You're welcome!" I smiled at him.

"21 to 19! I win again!" My dad laughed and did his dumb dance.

"Dang it! Dang, it! Frigid dipthong kumquat dang, dang it!" Henry yelled as he and my dad met in the middle and I walked around the table to them.

"Language, dude," I muttered. "There are kids watching. Now, be friendly or whatever."

"Good game," Henry smiled and shook my dad's hand.

"Thanks," My dad smiled back before the two superheroes moved and took out their gum. "Now, let's blow a bubble and get out of Harrison Ford out of trouble."

They popped a gumball into their mouths and blew a bubble before it popped and turned them into Captain Man and Kid Danger.

"Let's go," My dad said before they raced to the tubes and stood under them. My dad hit his belt buckle and tubes encased them, however, Henry's tube was covered in food and slob.

"Up-" My dad paused and looked at the mess. "What the?!"

"Oh gross!" I cringed, shivering at the sight of the mess. "Was Schwoz's sister here again?"

"What is all over your tube?" My dad asked Henry with disgust as he lifted up his tube and Henry did the same with his.

"Okay," Henry sighed and I notice Schwo motion him to be quiet. "Yesterday, Schwoz told me to go up the tube with a hot nacho platter."

"Oh yeah!" Bella chuckled, "I remember that. It was funny."

Schwoz stormed over with his arms up with annoyance.

"And the suckage made the cheese and refried beans go everywhere," Henry finished.

"Well, that's what happens when you put nachos in a tube that sucks things into the air," I shrugged and Henry gestured, agreeing with me.

"Schwoz!" My dad said.

"My sister is in town, and she wanted a taste of Mexico!" Schwoz protested.

"Well, now the three of you are going to clean that whole tube!" My dad exclaimed, walking over to us.

"What did I do?!" I questioned.

"You watched it happen!" My dad remarked and I gasped.

"I did not!" I huffed with folded arms, "I quietly stood by and my eyes happen to see it play it out."

"No excuses, missy," my dad wiggled his finger at me and I glared at him.

"Oh come on!" Schwoz complained.

"The tubes like a 100 feet tall!" Henry added.

"Well, you should've thought of that before you tried to fly up it with a hot sloppy snack!" My dad reasoned before Schwoz heard someone on the line and listened.

"Harrison Ford's airplane just sank," Schwoz informed us.

"He should've made a floating device, this amateur," I scoffed and got weird looks from Henry and my dad. "What?"

"You're extra weird today," Henry mentioned and I grinned.

"Why thank you."

"You guys should go save him," Schwoz told the boys.

"We will," Henry said, before looking at my dad. "After one more quick game?"

"We can't just-" My dad went to argue, but say the table and reconsidered. "My serve!"

I grabbed my popcorn as Henry and my dad went to the table and played another game of ping-pong.

"The goal is to hit the ball," I told Henry with a grin.

"Bella, please shut up," Henry pleaded with me as my dad served the ball and I giggled.

"Never, Hart."

——

The next day, Charlotte texted me asking if I could stay over and I accepted it, but was totally surprised when she mentioned a girl named Courtney would join us. Even more surprising fact, Courtney is Jasper's girlfriend.

I remember Jasper mentioning a girlfriend, but i thought it was just his imagination and stuff. But this girl is real, Charlotte sent me a picture and everything. Jasper scored a pretty girl who seems nice, I'm generally very happy for him. He deserves this.

Later that night, I was at Charlotte's house and i was in the bathroom, brushing my teeth. Courtney and I shared a a few words, and she seems pretty chill.

I left the bathroom and went back to Charlotte's room. I opened the door, but stopped when I saw Courtney messing Charlotte's ceiling fan. I closed the door, so that only my eyes could see what was happening. My eyebrows furrowed at the sight as I watched Courtney loosen the bots of the ceiling fan, before I moved away from the door and wondered why she was doing that.

My first thought was maybe she doesn't like Charlotte and/or I because we're friends with Jasper? But that's beyond crazy, who does that? What type of jealous is this girl?"

I heard Charlotte tell her parents goodnight and I moved away, pretending to walk to the door so she can see me.

Charlotte saw me and smiled as she opened the door and Courtney was sitting in bed with a smile. I followed Charlotte and my eyes squinted at Courtney, not trusting her anymore.

And I was kind enough to give her the extra bed and I would sleep on the floor. I stay over at Charlotte's house so often to know the floor is not comfortable, so this is a risk. Courtney should be thanking me and not trying to take my head off with a fan.

I need to warn Charlotte, I won't let some fan take her out.

"Hey," Charlotte greeted and I waved at Courtney.

"Hey," Courtney greeted back.

"You got enough pillows?" Charlotte asked Courtney. "I wanna make sure Bella didn't steal them."

"I get cold very easily," I object and Charlotte chuckled.

"Yeah," Courtney smiled, before grabbing the fan remote and I panicked. "So, I was trying to use this remote to turn on your ceiling fan, but it was making a weird noise."

Because you messed with it you psychopath.

"Hmm, I've never had a problem with it," Charlotte wondered and I looked up, noticing it looser than usual.

"Well, I think something looks broken," Courtney grinned.

The only thing that looks broken is Courtney when I break her for trying to harm my best friend.

"See, just stand right underneath it and look up," Courtney pointed and I grabbed Charlotte's arms.

"Don't," I stopped Charlotte and Courtney glared at me. "It could fall, so I wouldn't if i were you."

"Bella, it's fine," Charlotte waved me off, before standing underneath the fan and looking up at it.

I saw Courtney press the button on the remote and the fan fell to the ground. I pushed Charlotte out of the way and we both landed on the bed, yelling as the fan hit the floor. I let out a heavy exhale looking at the broken fan and rubble on the floor, before I looked at Courtney with a heavy glare.

"Wow, how about that?" Courtney chuckled and Charlotte and I hugged one another out of fear. "Goodnight."

Courtney have us a sinister smile, before she laid down to go to sleep. Charlotte quickly checked her bed for anything and I checked my mattress for something.

This girl has some serious issues. And that's coming from someone like me.

——

The next day, Charlotte and I left her house almost immediately and thankfully Courtney went to go hangout with Jasper, so she couldn't do anything to us. That girl is crazy, she's a whole nother level of creepy and jealous. Gives me Yandere vibes. I asked Charlotte if she knew why Courtney tried to murder us, but she's as clueless as I am. I believe I know why, but I need to make sure I am right.

I'll asked Henry today and see if he knows. He'll do something, it's his job to protect me- I mean us.

Charlotte and I went to the Man Cave and went down the tubes. Charlotte wasn't even bothered by the messy tube, we were too focused on Courtney to care.

My dad, Henry, and Schwoz were there, but we didn't listen to their greetings.

"No thanks, I just ate a taco," Charlotte mentioned as we walked past them.

"I used the bush outside as a bathroom, i'm okay," I told them and the three of them gave us looks.

"Again?" My dad asked me as Charlotte sat down at the monitor and I stood behind her. I heard Henry challenge my dad to another ping pong game, but I didn't listen or care.

This Courtney freak needs to be taken care of first.

Charlotte and I sat at the monitor for awhile, scrolling through pictures of Courtney's Twitflash.

"Hey, Bella? Char?" Henry called, but we were too enthralled to acknowledge him. "Girls? GIRLS?"

"WHAT?!" We yelled, turning him with anger in our eyes.

"Boy, i'll hit you," I threatened Henry, who stepped back.

"I know," Henry said. "Why are you both looking at pics of Jasper's girlfriend?"

"Because she's trying to kill us," Charlotte explained.

"What?" Henry asked with confusion.

"Last night, she loosened some bolts on Charlotte's ceiling fan," I told him. "I saw her do it."

"Yeah! It fell and almost took our heads off!" Charlotte agreed.

Henry sighed, "Why would Courtney wanna hurt you guys?"

"We don't know!" Charlotte protested as she got up and we followed Henry.

"But she's acting all jealous," I mentioned. "Why would she be jealous of us?"

Henry's mouth opened and he made a sheepish face, "uh..."

I folded my arms, giving Henry the look Charlotte usually gives us.

"What do you mean? 'Uh....?" Charlotte repeated.

"See, at school, I might have kind of made Courtney think Jasper kind of... loves you," Henry admitted with grin.

"Well, why would you say that?" I asked, "and i wasn't even there!"

"Your name popped up and Courtney was curious!" Henry objected. "Jasper does love you both as friends, but she didn't get that!"

"Yeah, all she got was a reason to kill us!" Charlotte exclaimed.

"You idiot!" I exclaimed and hit his arm.

"Ow!" Henry cried and sighed, "well, what do you want us to do?"

"Help us tell Jasper that his girlfriend is a crazy jealous lunatic," Charlotte explained.

"He'll never believe us," Henry reasoned and we sighed, thinking of other ways.

"Okay, then we're going to tell him and we're going to show him," Charlotte explained.

"How?" I asked her.

"Henry and Jasper are going to hid in my room tonight, and he'll see for himself how koo-koo his girlfriend is," Charlotte continued to explain.

"Eh, I don't know," Henry shrugged.

"Please!" I begged Henry and he glanced at me.

"Do you bring your dish of gummy bears every time you stay over?" Henry asked me and I nodded.

"I always have it!" I smiled.

"I'll do it," Henry agreed and I giggled happily.

"Yay!"

——

That night, I was sleeping over at Charlotte's house. Courtney was asleep or i think she is, but Charlotte and I were pretending to sleep to see what she was going to do. Henry was hiding in the closet as Jasper was in the chest at the end of Charlotte's bed.

I opened my eyes and looked up at Charlotte, before grabbing my taser and holding it close.  Henry peaked out from Charlotte's closet and gave us a thumbs up as Jasper lifted up the lid to the chest, nodding at us.

Courtney suddenly groaned and we motioned the boys to hide before she could wake up. Courtney got up and I sat up as Charlotte turned on the lights.

"Hi!" Charlotte and I greeted her.

"How are ya?!" I chuckled nervously, standing up from my mattress.

"Why'd you get out of bed?!" Charlotte added on with the same tone as me. I sat down on Charlotte's bed, holding my taser behind my back.

"Oh, I just need to use the bathroom," Courtney told us as she got up to leave with her suitcase.

Lies.

"Wait," Charlotte stopped her.

"Yeah?" Courtney asked and Charlotte nudged me, before she got up to confront her and I followed.

"Uh...listen... I know Henry told you that Jasper loves us," Charlotte confessed and I heard the door open to see Henry peaking his head out.

"Oh. Well, yeah. He did," Courtney nodded.

"Right, but we want you to understand..." I trailed off as I saw Henry taking a few of my gummy bears. "Meant just as friends!"

I gritted those words through my teeth as I stepped toward the door which made Henry hide again.

Charlotte gave me wide eyes as she pulled me back over to her.

"We promise we are not trying to take Jasper away from you or anything like that," Charlotte assured Courtney and I nodded as Jasper lifted the chest up, which made Charlotte quickly close it shut, sitting on it.

"Oh," Courtney said. "Well, thanks. I really appreciate you telling me."

That voice is so haunting and creepy. It gives me chills.

Courtney then grabbed her suitcase and left the room. Charlotte got up and the boys left their hiding spots.

"Mine," I muttered, grabbing my gummy bears and Henry groaned.

"Hey..."

"See? She's not insane," Jasper told us and I smacked Henry's hand as he tried to take a gummy bear. "You all owe me an apology."

"No! She may be acting nice now, but we're telling you, she needs help," Charlotte protested.

"Like Bella kind of help?" Henry asked and I smacked the back of his head.

"Shut up!"

"I think she seems pretty nice," Henry shrugged.

"Then explain the ceiling fan almost falling on our heads!" I exclaimed to him as I put the gummy bears down and away from Henry.

"AHH!"

Courtney bursted in the room with a chainsaw and a viking helmet. Charlotte and I yelled out in fear, moving away from her.

"STAY AWAY FROM MY MAN!" Courtney yelled and turned on the chainsaw, which made all of us yell.

I was absolutely petrified and yelled to Henry.

"Henry!" I cried to him as Charlotte and I ran to the corner of the room, holding one another.

Henry tackled Courtney to the floor as Jasper crawled out of the chest to get away from Courtney. Henry rolled over Charlotte's bed and Courtney chased him around the room. Jasper was on the opposite side of the room, throwing stuff at Courtney.

As Courtney chased Henry, I found my taser and picked it up. Courtney saw me and began to chase me, I yelled as I ran and Henry quickly helped me.

"Ger away from her!" Henry yelled at her and grabbed me, pulling me behind him. I didn't know I had tears falling down my face at this point, I was behind terrified right now.

I turned on my taser and threatened Courtney with it, which made her back away and she stood on the windowsill. She yelled out, before Henry picked up a bean bag chair and ran toward Courtney, pushing her out the window with it.

We all gasped as Courtney fell through the glass and landed on the ground outside. I squatted down, covering my mouth with my hands.

"I'll get you for that!" Courtney called. All of us were shocked out of our minds by what just happened and I didn't have any words.

"Okay... maybe she needs help," Jasper agreed and we stared at him.

"MAYBE?" I exclaimed, standing up and he jumped back.

"You both okay?" Henry asked and Charlotte nodded, but I wasn't okay.

"Just shaken up right now," I exhaled with a shaky breath.

Henry came up to me and put his hand on my shoulder, "you're okay, I promise. I wouldn't let anything happen to you... or any of you!"

I didn't even realize I was blushing as he said that and smiled.

"Thank you..."

Henry smiled, "anytime."

——

The following day, I was feeling better and Courtney was out of our lives. Jasper broke up with her and she went back home. I do not think I have ever felt that much fear ever, I mean she chased me with a chainsaw, I could have got ripped to shreds. Thank goodness Henry was there to help us, I am forever thankful for him. When any of us are in danger, he acts fast and goes into Kid Danger mode even if he isn't in uniform.

I do, however, feel horrible for Jasper, he finally got a girlfriend and she turned out to be a crazy lunatic. Jasper is so kind and sweet, he deserved to have a girlfriend, but I guess the universe does not want him to be happy. He'll find someone, it may not be today or for years, but he will.

I was in the Man Cave watching my dad and Henry play another very intense ping pong game again. Henry was trying to beat my dad and win the ping pong belt my dad has made himself, I do not have care for it, I think it looks rather ridiculous.

I watched the ping pong ball fly back and forth between the paddles and I could not take my eyes off it as it got faster and faster. Soon, my dad and Henry were just paddling the ball back and forth without the table, it went so fast that I was yelling along with them.

"AHHH!"

Seconds later, my dad hit the ball back with more force and it smacked Henry in the face.

"OH!" I laughed, "that has to hurt!"

"WO! Ha ha yeah!" My dad laughed and we hi-fived. "That's 17 to 20! One more point and I win!"

"I know how ping ping scoring works," Henry snapped back.

"The maybe you should learn how to hit the ball," I joked and me and my dad laughed together as Henry furrowed his eyebrows.

"I thought you were on my team," Henry said and I scoffed.

"You ate all my gummy bears, we ain't on the same team," I winked and he rolled his eyes at me.

"Your serve," my dad told Henry, who took the ball and started bouncing it on his paddle to stall.

"Are you stalling?" My dad asked Henry.

"No," Henry denied. "It's just Schwoz is supposed to be here and he's late, so..."

"Kid, it's game point," my dad told Henry. "Just serve."

"And accept defeat," I added with a smirk. "And lose!"

"And then get to scrubbing the filthy tube," my dad added on and I laughed.

"Hey guys!" Schwoz called and walked out with a large man with big hair and I backed away with an open mouth.

"Huh?!"

"This is Larry!" Schwoz introduced and Larry gave us a peace sign.

"What? Are you crazy? You can't bring people down to the Man Cave?" My dad protested.

"Larry is family!" Schwoz reasoned, "you said I could bring anyone in my family down here except for my sister who looks like a horse."

"Which I am thankful for!" I mentioned.

"Oh! All right," my dad agreed. "But i'm just about to bea Henry at ping pong so if you guys-"

"Just a sec!" Henry stopped him as Larry and Schwoz got closer. "Larry, right there."

Larry stood under the tubes and this confused me and my dad. I don't know what's happening, but I get it's gonna be awesome.

Suddenly, Larry took off his shirt which disgusted me.

"Bro why!" I said, looking away from him.

"What's happening?" My dad asked.

"You said that ping pong is all about staying focused," Henry mentioned.

"Yeah, but what's-"

Henry took out a remote and music started to play, which made Larry start dancing and do expressive emotions. I smiled as I began to happily laugh and then looked at my dad, who was shocked by it.

As my dad was distracted, Henry served and it hit my dad's chest.

"18-20!" Henry smiled and I laughed, running to Henry's side.

"I'm on your side again," I smiled and fist bumped him.

"Wait a minute! I wasn't ready!" My dad protested and I stuck my tongue out at him.

"Got to stay focused!" Henry shrugged with a grin and I glanced back at Larry, who was dancing his heart out.

"Get it Larry!" I cheered.

The game continued and my dad tried to stay focused, but he kept getting distracted and Henry scored another point.

"19-20!" Henry laughed.

"19-20!" Schwoz and I laughed.

My dad glared and shook his head, trying to remain focused.

They went again and now Larry was in a bikini top, jumping a rope. It was hilarious, especially seeing my dad's face as he watched Larry. Henry managed to score again and I cheered.

"20-20!" Henry called.

"You got to win by two!" My dad objected.

"No prob!" Henry grinned.

They went once again again and now Larry was bouncing on a ball, while wearing a hat with a flashing red light that had a siren wailing. I couldn't stop laughing, this is the best day ever.

It was truly beautiful.

Henry scored another point and I clapped, cheering for him.

"21-20!" I laughed to my dad, who swatted me away.

"Henry, one more point and we won't have to wear the pajamas," Schwoz told Henry.

"You got this Henry!" I encouraged Henry who gave me a warm smile.

——

"You cannot be serious!"

Larry was now doing it Lady and the Tramp style with a dog. My dad and Henry went again and my dad couldn't keep his eyes off Larry, he was just swinging the paddle, managing to hit the ball.

It didn't take long for Henry to score a point.

"22-20! The kid wins!" Henry cheered, throwing the paddle and Schwoz and I cheered for him.

"Henry! Wooo!" I cheered and we hugged tightly, before we started to dance around the room with Schwoz and Larry. My dad just stood there completely speechless and didn't know how to react.

Henry walked over and took the belt off my dad, before he started to dance with us again.

"WOOO!" I cheered, dancing around my dad with Henry.

——

The next day, Henry, Schwoz, Larry, and I were eating lunch and watch my dad clean the messy tube, while wearing pajamas.

I was smiling the whole time, because it was amazing.

"You're doing great, Ray!" Henry praised my dad.

"Keep it up, Ray!" Schwoz smiled.

"You look great by the way!" I grinned at him and he glared at us as he cleaned the tube.
