Bart said "okay, so you want to do what, find what taffy does when she's not with Milhouse?" Lisa said "yes. But I can't ever find her alone! You have any idea?"

Bart rolled his eyes, "I'm not that friendly with her! I don't know where she goes after school, but…why don't I ask her?" "wait no-" "too late!" said Bart, as he pulled out his phone, texting someone.

In a few minutes, there was a reply, "she says she's going to Mount Springfield…do you really think you should follow her?"

Lisa was already walking towards the mountain. Bart snickered softly, before putting the phone back to his pocket. If Lisa had been a bit more careful, she'd ask for the phone, and she would know whoever Bart had texted, she was definietly not Taffy.

"she's going to the holding out point?" asked Lisa with an unbelieving expression on her face, as Bart was playing with his phone on the top of a tree in the trail. She sighed, "ugh, I am never gonna get my homework done tonight"

A little further, she rolled into a bush, creeping forwards, until she saw two people…holding hands.

She growled, "alright sister, what's your game?" before swatting the bush aside, taking a menacing step forward, to see…Moleman and lunch lady Doris?

The moleman said "ow, we're trying to get our relationship back together!" to which the Lunch lady rolled her eyes, "in the sack he's a Salisbury steak. Everywhere else? Creamed corn."

Lisa said awkwardly, "I am so sorry" more like, I am so sorry I heard that, TMI! As she crept back into the bush, missing Bart's snickering as she stumbled on a rock and fell down, next to where taffy was sitting next to a tall guy in blue T-shirts and red pants, who's that? She rose, and said "AHA! There you are you two-timing little-"

the Girl, and the one she was holding hands with, turned. The guy said "Lisa?"

the guy had a big nose, red round glasses, and a really really familiar voice, his blue hair even more familiar.

There were only three people on Springfield with that shade of blue as their hair-color.

Lisa blinked. Milhouse? Damn you, Bart! She stuttered, "Milhouse?"

Taffy turned over too, with a mischievous look in her eyes (and she knew that look. She'd seen it on his brother for eight years straight. There was no way for her not to recognize that) "eugh! Not her again!"

Milhouse, who did not look like he was in on this, said "yeah, Lisa. Can't you leave me alone? We're over!"

Taffy turned to Milhouse, "you're not over! You never were!" she said in a deadpan voice, "Milhouse, you're a great guy, but we're not gonna work out, for one reason! It's because you'll always be in love with HER!" she said, rolling her eyes, as she pointed at Lisa.

Dear lord, not this again. thought Lisa, but Taffy rose, and said "he likes his apple pie warm, and his Ala Mode cold, good luck" as she began walking away, that strange mixture of mischievous and stern expression still on her face.

As she left, Milhouse looked down at the ground beneath him sullenly, "you don't want me to be with you, you don't want me to be with someone else. How miserable do I have to be before happy?" said Milhouse, "Milhouse-" she started, but he interrupted again, now his voice shaking "you won, okay? Just leave me alone!"

"Milhouse, I-" she said again, before groaning. She grabbed his head, and their lips met.

It was over almost in a second, but it had had its effect. Milhouse was no longer sullen, "Lisa!" he said, now his voice a little hopefully, "Does this mean you like me?"

"Yes!" she said at first, then "NO!" in protesting (who was she really protesting against?) then in a conflicted expression, "I don't know! It means that life is full of unexpected things, and you should never give up!" she said, automatically going into lecturer mode like every other time she didn't know what to say, then she said quietly, turning her head away "and you're cute in the moonlight" hoping he wouldn't hear her

He did. And he dropped down out of shock.

Lisa winced, ready to hear a 'pop', but then from somewhere below, Milhouse said weakly, "I'm okay!"

Lisa let go of a breath she didn't know she was holding, and ran over to see what'd happened to the unlucky boy.

POV change

As she left, Bart finally stopped chuckling, and called Taffy, "thanks for the good acting there. It was successful"

Taffy, with a voice that showed she'd been crying, said "I wasn't acting. I was serious" "I know. That must've been really hard for you" "it was" "I'm so sorry you had to go through this" said Bart mindlessly, "but I was serious there. I love Milhouse, but he's never gonna let go of Her. Is it okay if I hang out with you guys anyway?"

Bart blinked, "sure. When you're in, you will never be kicked out! You're always welcome to us!"

Taffy sighed, exhaled, and said "thanks, Bart. You're a good friend"

Bart blushed, but said nothing. Jumping down the tree to see what had happened to Milhouse.

POV change

As Lisa and Bart began taking Milhouse to the nearest Hospital, Marge was relaxing in the chair in their backyard. For a guy with fingers that chubby, he sure knew how to work with a woman's hair.

She could put the talk away for another day, this was too good to be stopped now…

A.N

Sorry. If you think that was horrible, please be gentle in you flaming… it was my first time writing something like that…

(bonus points for whoever got the reference)

Anyway, the next chapter will end this arc. And the one after it (which would be Ch11) will start a new arc…that I have no idea what should be. if you have any, Please say it.

Until later (probably about two or three days, if nothing happens)
