A Confession
by Athena2693
A/N: Okay, this is my first post in the Simpsons section. The pairing is Carl/Lenny. No idea if this could be true, but I see it as so, so yeah. Inspired by the episode with Mount Carleson.
"Carl?"
"Yeah Lenny?"
"Do you ever envy guys like Homer?"
"Why would I envy Homer?"
"Beautiful wife, kids, house. The perfect life in other words."
"Well, I don't know. I mean, I know I don't have the greatest house, and I have no one to share my life with. But it's a lot easier, no expenses. Plus, I have over 400 channels on my television."
"Yeah, but if you were happy would you spend every night at Moe's with me?"
"Barney and Homer are here too, Lenny. Besides, I didn't necessarily say I was happy."
"Even Barney's not here every night."
"Maybe I have a reason."
"What's that?"
There was a moment of silence. Moe wasn't even listening to the conversation as he was changing the expiration dates on the products of the inventory in the back room. Carl looked into his workmate's eyes for a moment, then looked back into the cup of foam that Moe claimed was how all bartenders served beer nowadays.
"Maybe I'm just trying to get the guts to ask you to come home with me."
"And maybe I've just been waiting."
