AU: Lilly Kane, Meg Manning, and Veronica Mars have a project, a project that entails making Cassidy Casablancas the most popular kid at school. Why? Because the three most popular guys, Dick Casablancas, Duncan Kane and Logan Echolls pissed them off respectively and their mission is to take away the thing they value the most. But will their plan work? Will they get their revenge or will it back fire?
Changes you need to know:
Lilly and Duncan are not brother and sister.
Cassidy is completely normal however he is rather isolated.
Keith is still Sheriff.
Vinnie Van Lowe is a good moral PI and Veronica works for him.
Alicia and Keith are married therefore Wallace and Daryl are Veronica's step brothers.
Weevil is Veronica's cousin – Keith's side of the family.
Aaron is not abusive.
A.N: This is a fairly simply story (kind of) and mostly teenage loving fun is what I aspire this story to become.
It was inspired by 'She's All That' and 'John Tucker Must Die' though this story is really different.
~~First Day Senior Year: Neptune Lunch Quad: Morning~~
"Logan Echolls is still an obligatory psychotic jackass!" Veronica gritted through her teeth while she glared at the 09er King. "He stuck a heart-shaped picture of Vice Principal Clemmon's inside my locker and then I was coincidently chosen for a random locker search."
Ever since they were five years old the tall brunette boy named Logan Echolls and the pixie sized blonde girl named Veronica Mars have been at each other's throats. Some may say they hate each other, some may call it sexual tension and others just don't give a damn. Their rivalry consisted of pranks and witty banter; the ball was in her court after his embarrassing stunt. She had to get him back.
"I cannot believe Dick had sex with Madison Sinclair," Lilly huffed with outrageousness as she spat out her enemy's name. "So what if we were on a break?" She began her rant. "She's the enemy! Everyone knows that." Lilly's fists clenched at the idea of ex-boyfriend being with Madison, everyone knew Dick was hers regardless of whether they were on a break or not. And Dick knew that she despised Madison with every fibre of her being – Seriously, Madison Sinclair was the bane of her existence.
"I can't believe Duncan broke up with me," the words felt ghostly as it past Meg's lips. "I thought we were happy." Duncan Kane and Meg Manning were the school's golden couple, they always looked so in love and jubilant. Apparently looks can be deceiving, since the jerk-ward broke their one year relationship over nothing in particular.
Veronica and Lilly dropped their death glares and their eyes softened. "Come on Meg, you know that it wasn't your fault," Veronica said soothingly as Lilly stroked Meg's golden coloured hair.
Meg's sullen expression made the girl's forgo their vendetta against their respective 09er in favour of cheering her up.
Meg sighed dejectedly. "How? All he said was, 'I'm sorry, it's not you, it's me'."
"And that's probably the most honest thing to come out of his mouth because you are one hot piece of ass Meg Manning," Lilly declared.
Veronica nodded and added, "Duncan is obviously going through a phase of rebelliousness. He's pushing away everything that's good for him."
"It's just so..." Frustration stirred within the usually cheerful girl.
"So?" Veronica encouraged.
"Say it, don't hold back," Lilly urged.
Meg huffed. "Unfair!" Lilly and Veronica had almost face-palmed at their friend's choice of word. Meg was definitely too much of a good girl, she'd put every Disney princess to shame.
~~Neptune Hallway~~
"Hey girls," Lilly called, her eyes fixated on the younger Casablancas brother. She turned to her friends and dragged them into the nearest girls bathroom. She checked the stalls, took Veronica's 'out of order' sign and hung it on the outside of the door before slamming it shut. With glimmering eyes, Lilly turned to them, "I just found the perfect revenge strategy!" Veronica and Meg glanced each other with uncertainty. "What is the one thing that our lovely 09er boys love the most?"
"Sex?" Veronica immediately responded. She was pretty sure that her answer applied to every hot blooded teenager.
"Booze?" Meg briskly threw in. Although, she was certain they'd choose sex over booze any day.
"Surfing!" Veronica chimed. Majority of the 09ers favoured surfing among every other sport. She knew. She's the one that made the poll.
"X-Box!" Meg's eyes lit up. She felt that between her and Veronica's guesses the right answer must be there.
Lilly's brows furrowed. Her BFF's were true geeks, who got excited at pop quizzes? They were so lucky that they had her in their lives. "No," she shook her head. "They love their popularity," she told them.
"Oh," left their lips.
"They love being the Kings of Neptune," she grinned triumphant as she figured out their weaknesses.
Confused, Veronica frowned. "Wait, I thought Logan was the King and Duncan and Dick were his right hand guys."
"They are. And what do they have in common?"
"Their popularity?" Meg guessed, half-hearted.
"No," Lilly sent them a weird look. "They all stick by each other in a weird bromance triangle thing..." she explained. With a sigh, she stated, "The point is they pissed us off, we're getting revenge and the best way to get it is to aim for what they value the most!"
"Is the answer popularity this time?" Veronica chirped. Lilly's idea intrigued her, after all she had to get Logan back for his stunt. She knew that Lilly wouldn't take Dick's sexcapades in stride since she really hated Madison. Meg was so pure and Duncan broke her good heart.
A vindictive gleam in her eye, Lilly nodded. "Yes. Our mission is to take away their popularity."
"How in the world are we gonna do that?"
Lilly's lips curved. "Seduce, Concur and re-elect."
The rise of a new king, shall be the downfall of jackassedry-united.
Logan will be a cakewalk, it's so obvious that he's into Veronica. The sexual tension between them? I'd need a saw to cut it.
While Logan is distracted, I'd need something to get between Duncan and Dick. A hot girl would do the job, someone they don't know, of course.. Effectively breaking the Unholy Trinity thing between them.
Every brilliant plan needs a little work. And the boy I have in mind to take over the 09erdom will need a bit of grooming. But revenge will be so much sweeter when Cassidy Casablancas is king.
And of course I'll have to get back at Madison.
"Oh my god, my plan is so brilliant." A grin played on her lips and her eyes glinted eagerly.
Eyebrows raised, the girls watched their friend with expectancy.
"Care to share it with us?" Veronica quipped which brought Lilly back from revenge island.
Lilly grinned, she'd of course have to wait until their plan was set into motion before she told Veronica that she'd have to fake-date or real-date or whatever-date Logan otherwise she'd never agree to it. "I got two words for you darlings; Cassidy Casablancas."
"Beaver? He's the least popular 09er in school," Veronica interjected..
Meg nodded as she chimed in, "And he's Dick's brother, why would he help us?"
"My sweet adorable blondes, this is totally a 'She's All That' moment. We are going to transform the pauper into a King. They'll never see it coming."
Lilly was well aware that the key elements of her plan would take effort but no guts, no glory, right? When done well, elaborate plans, were beautifully delicious once executed.
Meg didn't seem convinced, "Lilly I don't think-"
"Duncan broke your heart, Meg and he must pay!" Lilly told Meg with a no-nonsense tone.
She turned to Veronica, "You and Logan have been at each other's throats since we were five. And Dick must pay for his betrayal! I mean I'd have understood if it was Carrie Bishop, Shelly Pomroy or even Susan Knight but Madison Sinclair?" Lilly huffed.
"Okay, I'm in." Veronica declared.
Lilly and Veronica looked at Meg expectantly. With a reluctant sigh, she said, "Fine, fine, I'm in."
Lilly smirked, triumphant.
