A.N. This is my first ever fic so please don't be harsh. Couple of things you need to know, sorry if my spelling suck it is either because I am from Australia and I spell different or I suck at spelling, or my spell checker as a weird alternative, and sorry if my grammar sucks never really been that good at it.

This fic is based after season 3 so it basically my version of how season 4 would go. All the character from the third season is in it except lamb of course. A couple new characters, some of the regular characters might change personality. Not a LoVe fic at first but will become one later (I am to big a LoVe fan not to have it that).

Sorry bout the long authors note just thought I would give some background info. Veronica's thoughts are in BOLD, how I have written the story might change by which I mean the format of the story.

Summary: After the summer before season four would of started. Veronica returns from her FBI internship for her sophomore year of college, Vinnie is sheriff of Neptune, Keith is back as a P.I. and Logan come back from a trip over the summer with a couple of surprises. (Sorry it the summary sucks not that good at writing them)

"Hello everyone my name is Alathea every one just calls me Thea, I am Professor Nichols new PA, she is unable to take the class today, so I will be taking it for her. Now because this is your first day back and you probably don't want to do much, we will only be doing something basic getting to know you exercises."

Great now this should be fun on the first day back. I feel like I am in high school again, and why would you want to do getting to know you exercises in psychology class.

"Now I would like you to find a partner and tell them a bit about your self."

Everyone in the room splits of into partners except for Veronica who is left by her self.

Yep defiantly like high school. Well it looks like my only choice is miss getting to know you.

Veronica gets up and walks to the front of the class where the PA Alathea is standing.

"Well it looks like we will be partners," says Alathea in a friendly tone.

"Yeah looks that way," Veronica in an uninterested tone. They both find a seat and sit down facing each other.

"Why don't I start, my name is Alathea, I am from Australia just moved here with my husband who already goes here, and I only met four months ago, I have a son not from my husband named Ollie who is two and half years old. I don't think there is much else to say how bout you?"

"Ummm my name is Veronica Mars lived in Neptune my whole life, work as a PI with my father, just spent my whole summer in Virginia for a FBI internship"

Alathea looks at her pretty impressed.

"Not much else really, not married or have any illegitimate children"

Ignoring Veronica's last comment, Thea says, "So let me guess your one of those people who kind of keeps to your self and doesn't let anyone else really in."

Ok now she is starting to piss me off, who does she think she is my therapist, but I have to say she is pretty impressed she only got that from me saying a couple of things about myself.

From the look on Veronica's face Thea starts to apologies. "Sorry that was a bit straight forward, I kind of do that a lot analyze people like that. As psyche major you sort of do that a lot, sorry I will try and stop now."

Veronica looks and her a bit strangely and says "Its ok don't worry about it."

"Wow look at the time" Thea stands up and addresses the class. "Ok everyone that is it for today just a short class I will probably see you next time and professor Nichols will defiantly be here, alright you can go." Turns to Veronica who is just about to leave. "It was very nice to meet you and I think you are perfect for this class cya around." Thea leaves the classroom, and leaves Veronica standing there alone.

Well she was a little different.

Veronica heads out of the classroom and into the food court.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

She walks into the food court and sees Wallace, Mac and Piz sitting at a table.

Great there is my boyfriend, or maybe not I don't know, that is kind of what happens when he goes to New York for his internship and I go to Virginia for mine and you don't really talk that much the whole summer.

Veronica heads over to the table, Piz gets up and greets her with a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

Well it seems like where still together.

"I missed you so much how was your summer, how was the internship for the FBI" Piz said while he and Veronica sit down at the table with Mac and Wallace.

"It was amazing I really do not know how to describe it, but I had the best time ever, nearly didn't want to leave. But I knew dad would kill me if I didn't come back." Veronica's addresses the rest of the group, "well how were all your summers?"

Piz starts first, "The internship in New York was amazing and they actually let me talk on the radio it was so cool. But where I was staying kind of sucked, I had to live with three other people who don't really that much about hygiene."

Wallace starts next, "Africa was great I got to help so many people and it was just a great experience. But it is great to be back home though."

Mac is last to describe her summer, "Broke up with Max and did a lot work and got a lot of money as well."

Veronica turns to Mac and tries to comfort her, "I am sorry about you Max he was pretty cool guy."

Mac sighs, "Yeah well it was going to happen sooner or later so all well I am over it now and I am moving on." Mac said in an up beat tone.

"Mackie!" Dick yells as he walks up to the group to greet Mac with Logan behind him. "Ronnie and friends of Mackie and Ronnie's"

Veronica turns to Mac with a raised eyebrow, "Mackie," she asks suspiciously.

Mac sighs, "We hanged out a bit over the summer.

Logan greets the group, "Hey everyone, how you all goin?"

Just as Wallace was about to answer Thea walks up to Logan and gives him a kiss on the cheek. "Hey babe" she smiles at him and Logan smiles at her. "Hey Dick" dick turns to and puts his hand for a high five which she gives him. Thea turns around and sees Veronica at the table with a couple of other people, "Oh hey Veronica, didn't think I would see you so soon," she turns to the other people at the table, "Hi my name is Alathea, Alathea Echolls, I am Logan's wife."

A.N. Ok that is all I am going to give so far, sorry it is a bit short I will try and make the next chapters a bit longer, I hope you like it; it might take me a while to update because I want to see what people think first before I post more.
