Sorry it took so long to make a new chapter, I've actually had this written for awhile but I decided that now during my winter break I would post it and decide to get back to this story. I've come up with some CRAZYideas for this FF. So yeah.

This is the second chapter to Let It Slide-Formerly Lisa's Self-Possession. I hope you guys enjoy this. :] R&R. Thank you.


Lisa walked into the book store thrilled to see the book she wanted sitting on the end cap in front of her, it had a nice display and everything.

"Ah Miss. Simpson how are you today?" Mr. Rogers asked her a smile on his face "Oh... Yes many people have come in today to pick up that book," he told her noticing that she had the book in her hand.

"Yeah I had it on my wish list for awhile now," she told him as she flipped through it reading the front and back cover over and over. "How much is it?" she asked looking up from her reverie.

"It is 14.99 miss," He declared looking at her with soft eyes. Lisa's eye dropped from the book on to the floor, she didn't have enough money.

"Oh," she murmured softly putting the book back she then began her way to the exit.

"I'll buy it for her," someone said from behind her she looked up to see a young man standing behind her.

"No you don't have to I don't-"but the young man cut her off, he then handed the book to the older man and paid.

"Here you go," the boy gave Lisa the book and preceded to the back of the store Lisa followed him.

From the back the boy looked normal he was dressed in a blue polo shirt, he was wearing jeans and he had nice longish black hair, but he's face so sculpted, like a yellow Greek god.

"Um, excuse me?" Lisa poked the boy on the shoulder he turned around a little startled "Oh sorry," Lisa apologized quietly looking at the floor.

"Its alright I'm Drake Stevens and your name beautiful?" Drake stuck out his hand for Lisa to shake she just started at it a smiling forming on her face.

She took his hand and shook "I'm Lisa Simpson, and thank you for the book," she thanked him taking her hand back.

"Here let's sit down get to know each other," Drake led her towards two small couches in the back one of which she sat down in instantly he just smiled at her.

"So, are you new here?" she asked looking him in the eyes, wow he's eyes are amazing she thought to herself.

"Yes actually I just moved here yesterday and I was told they had a wonderful little book store over here so I came to check and here you are," he smiled flipping a small book in his hand back in forth "so why are you here?" he asked her making her heart beat what a wonderful smile he has.

"Well I originally came here to get an application for a job but then I remembered this book was released and I came but I forgot money an well that's why I need the job," she admitted softly I've never talked to one boy for so long well except Nelson but that was so long ago. Oh whatever hot guy attention back to him. Lisa pulled her self out of her thoughts and looked up at him he was grinning.

"How cute well don't let me stop you from getting your application," he then got up and began to walk away. "Oh yeah here," he then pulled a pin out of his pocket and wrote his number on her hand "Ever get lonely go ahead and call," he began to walk away after that Lisa just started at her hand. "Lisa Simpson right?" he asked without turning around Lisa cleared her throat.

"Yeah," she answered a little breathless he turned around and walked up to her kissing her cheek. "I'll ask Mr. Rogers there for your number," and with that he left out of the store the bells on the handle jingling to acknowledge it, Lisa kept her hand on the place where he kissed her.

When Lisa got home she could smell her mom's meat loaf burning in the kitchen a smile crossed her face at the thought of how they just had it for dinner last week.

"I'm home!" Lisa shouted beginning to run up the stairs.

"Lisa I'm glad you're home," Lisa heard her mom call from the kitchen Lisa then turned around and began towards the kitchen.

"Hey mom," Lisa walked over to her mom and kissed her on the cheek, the last 8 years put a strain on Marge's looks her hair had straightened out and laid flat on her head rather than in the beehive shape it was before, her face had also began to wrinkle on her cheeks and under her eyes. Even if she was older looking Lisa still believed she was beautiful, "How has your day been?"

"Oh same old same old, you're father broke the handle of the bathroom door so I had to fix it, then Maggie decided to act as if she were three again and flush her Malibu Stacy down the toilet," Marge sighed as she continued to scrub the dish she had been working on when Lisa first came upon her, "How about your day, sweetie?"

Lisa took a moment to answer a smile began to creep upon her face, "I went to the book store you know and like I forgot my money so I wasn't gonna buy the book but then this really hot guy came up to me and was like," Lisa took a breath then continued "'Hello mind if I buy that book for you'" Lisa said with a faux British accent "and of course I was like yes, then we talked and he gave me his number and yeah," Lisa sighed in a dream like manner then looked over at her mom who looked dumb struck "Well I have some homework to finish so I'll talk to you later," Lisa reached to kiss her mom one more not noticing her look of confusion and began to walk towards her bedroom.
