It's more than a crush and you know it

(Hey everyone! This my first non-crossover fanfiction. This is also the first story that one of my many OCs will be in. Make sure to read and review!)

Chapter 1: Rose

"Come on Bart we're gonna be late for school!" Lisa shouted. "I'm coming I'm coming." Bart said. The two Simpson children where late for the bus this morning. So they had to walk. Lisa was not pleased and Bart was not any happier. "Bart! Lisa! You forgot your lunches." Marge said.

The kids grabbed their lunches, kissed Marge on the cheeks, Lisa the left one and Bart the right, and continued their way to school.

Lisa was so excited. It was her first year as a third grader. She had been one before when she and her brother where sent there last year due to their grades. But this time, she was ready.

Bart was less than pleased. Somehow, He managed to pass the fourth grade and now was going to be a fifth grader. To him that just meant more work and less fun. He was pissed.

Suddenly, Bart and Lisa heard a girlish scream. "That sounds like Martin Prince." Lisa said. The scream was coming from some bushes. Bart and Lisa went towards the bushes and saw Martin getting beat up by Dolph, Jimbo, Kearney, and Nelson. "Give us your lunch money or we'll pound you to a pulp!" Nelson said. "Please Mercy!" Martin pleaded.

"Oh my god!" Lisa shouted. "Bart! We got to do something!" "You mean walk away and pretend nothing happened? I'm way ahead of you." Bart said. Before Lisa could stop him, he bolted. She sighed. "I guess it's up to me."

Lisa started to approach the bullies with the intent of giving them a piece of her mind. "Hey you! What do you think your doin-" Lisa stopped dead in her tracks when she saw Nelson.

There was something weird about Nelson. He looked the same as he did last year. But at the same time, he seemed more mature, more masculine, and more attractive to Lisa A strange burning sensation began to overcome Lisa's cheeks. (What the?) Lisa could feel the blood rush to her face. Nelson seemed to notice it as well.

"Lisa?" Nelson said. "What are you doing here?" Lisa didn't answer right away. She was lost in Nelson's eyes. "Uh..Lisa?" Nelson repeated. Lisa snapped out of it. "Wha-what? Oh yeah! Umm….Nelson! You and your friends better Martin alone!" Lisa said all in one breath.

Nelson just looked down right confused. "Isn't Bart supposed to be with you?" Nelson asked. "He bailed on me." Lisa said.

The rest of the bullies started laughing. "Man, I knew Bart was a wussy, but this is ridiculous." Jimbo said.

Lisa rolled her eyes. "Anyway.." Lisa continued. "Can't you guys leave Martin alone for one day?" The bullies gave her a strange look. "Please?" Lisa said sheepishly.

There was a moment of awkward silence. Then Nelson spoke up. "You know, Lisa's got a point."

"She does?" said the bullies.

"She does?" said Martin.

"I do?" said Lisa

"Yeah." Nelson said. "We always pick on Martin. Why don't we find that Database kid and liberate some cash from him?"

"Sounds good." Dolph said. The other bullies agreed and went off in search of their next victim. Lisa helped Martin up. "Are you okay?" Lisa asked the fellow bookworm. "Yes." Martin said "I am fine. Thank you."

After making sure Martin was okay, Lisa continued to school. All the way there, and for the rest of the day, all Lisa could think about was Nelson. She couldn't get him out of her head. And the burning sensation in her cheeks continued to bother her. At some point she was able to go to the restroom and look in the mirror. She saw that her cheeks where a bright red. She tried to cool her face off by splashing some cold water from the sink on it, but it didn't help. "What's wrong with me?" Lisa thought to herself. All they she could hear the other girls giggle behind her back. It was a rather embarrassing day for Lisa

"So how was first day of school?" Marge asked. The Simpsons where having pork chops for dinner save for Lisa who was sticking to her vegetarian diet by eating a salad instead. "Oh it was fine." Lisa said feebly before looking back down at her plate. Marge let out one of her famous murmurs to show she was worried. "Lisa, are you sure you're okay? You look a little flushed." Homer was next to speak. "Yeah Lisa, Do you have a fever honey?" Lisa finished the food in her mouth. "I'm fine guys. Really I am! I guess it's just allergies." Then Lisa just put her fork down. "Can I be excused from the table?

Homer and Marge exchanged an uneasy glance then Marge said "Okay." Lisa went to her room, changed into her nightgown, and climbed into bed. "Why can't I stop thinking about Nelson?" Lisa thought. The strangest thing about all this was that this all felt familiar. "I know I felt like this before. But where?" Lisa pondered. The burning feeling in her face intensified when she realized what all this meant. "Oh no!" Lisa thought. "It can't be. Am I…..do I…have a crush on Nelson again!?"

(Yeah so this is sort of a sequel to Lisa's Date with Destiny, which just so happens to be my favorite episode of The Simpsons. WARNING! There is an OC in the next chapter. Special thanks to VintageNHC and The Eds Rock for reviewing my other stories. That's all for now. B.S.C Out.)
