Snuggle Monster

"Man, where is Lisa?" Nelson asked himself. Of course, he knew exactly where she was. Principal Skinner assigned her to work on the new puma statue for the school. She was to go home late for the next few weeks. Nelson was at her house, watching cartoons. Bart had invited him to play some video games but he declined as he wanted to wait for Lisa.

"This sucks nard!" He thought. "Why does Lisa always have to do extra schoolwork? How can anyone find work fun? Well, I have to remember that Lisa thinks differently than I do. She wants to be someone when she grows up and that's why she's always doing that school crap. She's cool like that."

At that moment, Lisa came in through the front door and walked into the TV room.

"Hey Lis-"

Lisa plopped down on Nelson's lap.

"-a"

Lisa didn't say anything. She stretched like a big cat and curled up to Nelson.

"I missed you so much." She said. Nelson and Lisa sat together and watched Itchy and Scratchy for a couple of hours. When Nelson was ready to go home, he tried to get up but Lisa wouldn't get up. He looked down and Lisa fast asleep curled up to him. Nelson smiled and made himself comfortable. As long as Lisa was asleep, he wasn't going anywhere.
