The truth about heaven
It was a cold and blurry night Veronica had been wandering in circles watching her bed go round and round till she stops and wonder why she's suddenly dizzy. Reality struck, she was walking around in circles again. Her dad was away on a case to Las Vegas. She and Logan had been dating for weeks. They've known each other since before puberty and yet it was only a few months ago that they started growing up… at least in each other's eyes.
Veronica plopped tiredly into her water bed. And boom, thunder roared and not long was it until the rhythm of the rain out tuned the humming of their old refrigerator. She kept on staring past her window looking at the sudden flashes of lightning.
Flashes.
She reminisces.
They were kids then a few years back… Lily a bit older than them. Logan was a matinee idol back then… Logan had been a drama king. Always starring in the school play. Now that Veronica remembers it, Logan had really been Drama King ever since grade 2. Always there in the stage either chasing co-members or tearing the set apart. But still. It was in theatre. "He's a natural" Mrs. Tretts always said to his father. Duncan and Veronica were more reserved… at least the other people thought so. After school, while Logan was at Theatre classes D.K and V were getting high, sometimes at the Kane's residence sometimes at the Mars'. They were sneaky little things. Getting Sugar Hangovers at school… snatching some candies from the local candy store. It was not long before Logan gave up on his acting to come get high with his best buddies. Veronica smiled fondly at the memories. Lily was a few years older than they were, but she was part of the little scam. It wasn't until they graduated from middle school that Lily personally handed them a scrapbook. It was filled pictures of them. Toothless and sneaky were captioned under a beaming Duncan and Veronica with chocolate smothered all over their chins their arms around each other's shoulder. It was filled mostly of stolen shots. They always used to eat their sweets under Jake Kane's bed.
She sighs then stands up again, walking around her room aimlessly.
"Come on Logan. What's taking you so damn long?! Ugh" She screams at her pillow.
She dialed his cell.
Out of Coverage area.
She dialed on and on.
"Hello…"
Veronica's face was lit up with a hopeful smile
"You've reached Logan Echolls. Either I left my cell phone at home or I'm somewhere without signal… just leave me a message, I'll get back to you. Oh, and by the way, "I love yah Ronnie!!!! Do you love me to? I can't hear ya!!" He chuckles then it dies down.
"You know I'm here for you. Just come to me when you need me!" then in the background Veronica hears her own voice.
" Logan?! Talk about tacky! Turn it off!" Then the Veronica on the other line squeals then there was the beeping sound.
It was the voicemail.
Damn.
She hurls the cell phone on the bed. Then starts biting her nails.
Possibilities were building up in her head, playing like a VCR.
What if he left me?
What if he wanted to ditch me?
What if something bad happened? Oh God I can't forgive myself.
Even before such horrible thoughts multiply like a virus in her head, the phone rings.
Veronica sighs relieved she dove onto her bed to get her cellphone and straightened up to answer it.
" Logan! Oh my God! You had me worried there? Aren't you coming? It's half past ten already." She manages to blurt it all out in just one breath.
The line was silent.
"Ms. Mars, this is Sheriff Lamb…"
Veronica's eyes bulge as she immediately shot up from the bed.
She laughs hysterically after a second.
"Oh ha ha Logan! Really where are you? I've been worried sick." She says again.
Silence again.
" Logan? Logan! Damnitt"
"Veronica, it's Lamb… we- - "
Muffled voices.
The tension rises.
A cell phone crashes on the ground.
Veronica was standing there one moment with her delicate hands almost covering her mouth then the next thing, her knees buckled and gave away as she stumbled to the hard floor of her room.
Out of reflex, Logan burst through the window to catch Veronica as she fell. But there was no impact on the glass, no shards flying, no veronica to hold as she wept, just the cold wind he embraced to himself. Like everything suddenly became ghosts.
"V," He tried
But Veronica couldn't hear.
She just kept sobbing his name like he just dumped her for Madison Sinclair…
"Hey, V, it's me, I made it on time. Look at me." He reached out to tilt Veronica's face towards his but there was nothing. Like everything was a hologram.
He kept shaking his head, looking at his own hands like it was a ghost. He backed away from Veronica's lifeless sobbing form on the ground. He was so far now that he didn't notice he was halfway through the wall and almost fell the two stories down. It was there at the back of his head. He refuses to believe it. He sits down Veronica's bed then he suddenly pictures them making out about a few weeks back. He breaks down silently behind Veronica. They were mourning for each other.
"No!" Veronica's head jerks up, her hair was wild and so were her eyes. Desperation.
She fumbles for her cell phone. Logan peeking curiously behind but then he shakes his head in an exasperated manner like a kid not getting division. Veronica was checking the call register list but then her face grows disappointed when she sees that it wasn't really Logan who called and gave her a prank call. She goes to the gallery of her cell phone, looking at the pictures of her and Logan. One was of them kissing. Logan with his eyes closed while Veronica was looking at the camera like she just earned bragging rights . Then this time it was another picture Logan was the one holding the camera, taking a stolen picture while they make out. Veronica had her eyes closed and hands around Logan's neck. They were multi shots and when she scrolled down, Logan was coming closer to her lips in the picture. Then it was backup. She fumbled again to go back to the pictures, trailing fingers on Logan's face. She was so broken that Logan couldn't look at her anymore. It hurts so much to cause her this much pain. Logan sobs with his eyes closed. Then when he opens his eyes, Veronica was resting her head on where his tangible legs should have been. It awed him so much. She was beautiful. He lost her. Logan didn't move over but instead ran his hands through Veronica's hair. Imagining he could feel her silky strands slide underneath his longing touch. Veronica fell asleep murmuring Logan's name. How he had left her.
" Logan, where did you go?" She mumbled while she dreamt of him. Both of them going on a roadtrip, their silhouettes inside the yellow Xterra vanished into the sunset.
"I'm right here, V. I always were." He answered as tears fell helplessly down his face.
The sun rose and set behind Veronica's window and yet she refused to move a single inch from her position. Logan saw her waking at times then watch her as she struggles with her hunger just to stay like that with her eyes closed. Logan had enough of it.
"Veronica," he tried softly.
He tried even though he knew it was worthless. But who knew? What they had was a strong bond. Something real. Something stronger than death. Could have been True LoVe.
"But then I had to die." Logan thought
"Logan, I feel you here... are you? I miss you already... why don't you talk to me?" Veronica whispers in her half asleep state.
DOnt worry about Logan. He's a big boy... he'll find a way. never loose hope of him and veronica not ending up together for LoVe will always find a way!
I had to cut it for now. It's a sort of songfic with about 3-5 chapters.
I hope you like.
It's my first LoVe. and Veronica Mars fic.
