Things Only We Understand

AN: So this is kind of a sequel to the story "The Things You Don't Know about Me" If I continue this it will most likely be in one shot. Please Read and review.

"Hey Veroinca it's me. Big Dick is back in town. Do you want to call Mac and meet me at the Grand? I think that Dick is going to need us all." I hear Logan's voice boom through my phone. Of course I am still pissed at him but that is the one thing that I think I can't be mad at calling me about. I can't believe that the asshole is back.
"Yeah I will, Logan why is he here?" I ask trying to figure out why the hell he would be back. "Has Dick seen him?"
"I don't know why he is here and Dick's seen him alright. It's not pretty, but I am leaving the college now and I think I am going to stop by Cho's and get some pizza and soda. The last thing we need is to let Dick drink right now." He tells me.
"Okay I will call Mac and see you soon." I tell him as we hang up. "Sorry Piz I have to go." I tell my boyfriend.
"Was that Logan?" he asks me
"Yes it was." I say as I start to gather my things from the desk where I had been working on an assignment.
"Why do you have to run off so quick when your ex calls you?" he asks we had been fighting more and more about Logan lately and true fully I am starting to get a little sick of it.
"I don't have time to explain right now." I said as I start toward the door and already have my phone to my ear calling Mac.

"Max I really do have to get back into a normal routine. As fun as sex-nap-eat repeat loop is I can't do it anymore." I tell my boyfriend. Just think Mac last year at this time you were trying to figure out what was wrong with you because Cassidy wouldn't touch me. Why do I keep thinking about him lately? I am pulled from my trance by my phone ringing. "Hello."
"Hey Q, what are you up to?" I hear Veroinca ask me.
"Just visiting with Max." I tell her. What was I supposed to say Oh you know Bond just getting caught in a never ending sex loop.
"Do you think you could meet me at the Grand? More specifically the Pent House?" she asks. Okay what's going on, last I knew she and Logan were fighting.
"Okay, sure but why?" I ask her. "What has Logan did this time? Or is it dear Richard?" I hope it's just Logan I don't think I could handle a problem with Dick right now.
"Well it's Richard alright but in the form of the original." She says. Oh no Big Dick?
"As in Daddy dear?" I ask her.
"Yep. He's back. Logan just called I guess Dick is starting a down ward spiral already so see you soon?" She checks.
"Yeah I will be there in five." I tell her as I reach down and pull on my shoes and hang up the phone.
"Is everything okay?" Max asks me as he notices the look of worry on my face.
"Yeah I just have to go. I will talk to you later." I tell him as I run out the door. There is no way I can explain this to him now. Where would I start?

Why did he have to show up now? Everything was going so good, I was getting good grades, everything with the frat is going good and I am even starting to come to terms with my newly found only child status. KNOCK KNOCK "Who the hell could that be?" I say to myself. I hope it's not my father.
"Hello?" I say as I open the door and see a pissed off ghost world.
"Dick give me the bottle." She says to me and for the first time I realize that there is a half empty bottle of Jack in my hand.
"What do you want Ghost World?" I say not giving up the bottle
"I heard that you dad is back in town and you aren't going to go through that alone. Now like I said before give me the damn bottle." She says
"Why do you care?" I ask
"Because while you and I don't see eye to eye on a lot of things there is one thing that we agree on." She says.
"Yeah and what would that be?" I ask her.
"That your father is one of the main reasons that took 'him' away from us." She says I know that she is refereeing to Cassidy "And we are going to face your father together." The next thing I know I have my arms wrapped around her. It's the first time I have ever touched Mac and I realize that there is nothing that comes close to what she can do for me. She loved him as much as I did and we could really help each other.
"Hey guys." I am pulled from my trance when I hear Logan and Veroinca come into the room. At this moment I realize that no matter what these three people will always be there for me.

"So I have pizza and soda, no more alcohol Dick and we are going to be helping you through this." I tell Dick.
"Thanks guys." He says. "I don't know what I am going to do. He is going to be here the entire summer before he goes to jail." Just as he finishes the sentence there is a knock at the door.
"I'll get it." Veroinca says as she walks toward the door.
"Oh Ms. Mars, just the girl I wanted to see." I hear Big Dick say as Veronica opens the door. "Is my son here?" before she can answer I see Mac get up.
"You bastard! How dare you even show up here? After everything you have done. Did you ever think about what you did to your sons? You know you did have two until you ignored Cassidy for the majority of his life. What did you do when he told you he was being molested by that bastard Woody? Tell him he wasn't a man and he needed to stop lying." I hear Mac spit out.
"Hold up Mackie." Dick says as he grabs her by the waist as she was starting to leap toward Big Dick with fists flying.
"Son who the hell is this girl?" Big Dick asks.
"This is the only girl that ever loved Cassidy; guess what he loved her too. If you would have known anything about what happened my senior year or paid any attention to Cassidy you would have known that." Dick explains never letting go of Mac.
"Well doesn't give you any reason to attack me young lady you don't even know me." Big Dick says and I already know he is going to regret it when I see Dick let Mac go.
"I know plenty about you." She says "I know that you never paid attention to you kids. I know that you ignored Cassidy to the point that he felt like there was no one for him to talk to. Did you know that he started his own company?" everyone looks at Mac like she has two heads none of us knew about it.
"Phoenix Land Trust. He idolized you and you ignored him. And his business was doing really well at the time of his…" Mac still couldn't say the word.
"Mac what happened to the company?" Dick asked what we all wanted to know.
"Well what's left of it should be building interest in a hidden account that only I know where is at now." Mac says.
"Well why do you know it was my son's company it should have gone to the family." Big Dick says.
"Well part of it did. It went to Kendall, she was the one listed as CEO because he was too young. But he was smart. He made sure that she only had access to about ¼ of the accounts and all the money from that portion went to all of the Fighting Fitzpatrick's" Mac explains. "The rest of it that is still hidden will be transferred into your name when you turn twenty one." She says as she looks at Dick. "Well half of it at least. Half of it will remain in my name."
"I don't get it." Dick says.
"Well I think Cassidy knew that he wouldn't see his company through to the end so he set up half of it in this hidden account. When he died it went all into my name and when you turn twenty one your portion will go into your name like he had always planned. He said that the three of us would be the perfect team so he made sure that you were included in the company, he figured by time you were twenty one you would be responsible enough to handle some of the company." Mac said as she started to cry.
"I think you need to leave." I hear Veronica tell Big Dick.
"I am paying for half of this room and I want to talk to my son alone." He says as he pushes his way past Veroinca and into the room. For the first time he meets my eyes. "Oh Mr. Echolls you and I have some issues to discuss also. It seems that I have issues with all of you. "
Before I have a chance to say anything Veroinca is jumping to my defense once again. "You have no right to attack Logan for sleeping with Kendall. She was a slut. Do you want the list of the guys she slept with while married to your sorry ass. Because Logan is just the beginning of it. There was also Duncan, and two of the Fitzpatrick's. She was playing you. Her real name wasn't even Kendall."

It took about an hour for us to get rid of Big Dick and as we sat and watched a movie I started to think that we all needed to discuss what really happened that night last year.
"Can I ask you guys something?" I say barely above a whisper.
"What's up Dick?" Logan asks me
"I need to know what happened that night." I say "I need to know what was going on with him before you know…"
"Okay. Mac are you going to be okay with this?" Veronica asked? "This is a lot to do with you also."
"Yeah but I think I need to go first." Mac says. "I will start from when we left the party. I teased him a little bit. Dick had just egged him on while he drank a drink and I told him that it was liquid courage, because right after that he asked me if I wanted to head to the room."
"I remember that part. I said something to him about it feeling good to be a man from time to time." I recalled feeling a little ashamed of myself.
"Yeah well we were headed up to the room and he was so carefree then we ran into Corny. He told us about Mr. Mars catching Woody and how that 'sleazoid' was going to fry. I at that moment he tensed up so much I should have known something was wrong but we continued on to the room." I see Mac wipe a tear from her face.
"You don't have to do this Mac." I tell her.
"No I do. I lied to the cops." She says. As we all give her a strange look. "We slept together. But when the cops asked me about it they keep saying rape. At the time I didn't get it. Of course Cassidy didn't rape me. He was the sweetest boy ever. This was before I knew about everything. When Lamb asked if we had sex if Cassidy raped me. I said no. Cassidy didn't rape me. I loved him still do, we had sex but it was consensual. "
"Oh god Mac." Veronica said. "Have you been tested? I mean sorry I know that's incentive."
"Don't worry V. After you told me about everything and the clap I got checked. I was clean so I guess he had finished the treatments. After we finished he got weird though. I suggested we go back to the party but I wanted to shower real quick. I kissed him real quick and went into the shower. That's the last time I say him." She said breaking down completely. I don't even think before I wrap my arms around her and she cries into my chest.
"Do you want Veroinca and Logan to tell us what happened on the roof?" I ask her?
"Yes. I need to know what happened up there." Mac says as we look to Veroinca.
"Well I am assuming while you were in the shower is when Cassidy received the text message on your phone saying that he was murder." Veroinca says. "I received the message from you saying to meet you on the roof so I went. When I got there I saw a side of Cassidy that I would have never imagined existed."
"What happened next?" Logan asked and it just hit me that he wouldn't have known yet because she was alone up there with him at first.
"I asked him where Mac was. He said she was in a better place. The look in his eyes I thought that he had killed you." She says as she looks at Mac. I feel her shiver so I pull her closer. "He pulled out the phone and asked me what I knew. I told him everything I knew and the entire time he didn't look like Cassidy. He looked like a stranger to me. When I confronted him about the rape he said that he knew how to keep a secret and that he was proud for Dick thinking he was still a virgin. There was a moment that he seemed near human. He let me try to call my dad before he blew up the plane."
"Veroinca that didn't make him human that made him even sicker." I tell her. Still trying to imagine my little brother being so twisted.
"After the plane blew up he wanted me to jump off the roof that's when I text Logan." She says. "After that It's a blur."
"There is one thing I need to add." Logan says. "Dick I am so sorry. He asked me to give him a reason to not jump. I was so shocked that he was on the ledge. And everything that happened that I didn't know what to say."
"I couldn't you have thought of something Logan?" Mac asks him. "You could have said me, or Dick, or anything you let him die." With that she ran off into my room.
"I just can't believe that my little brother did all this." I say.
"Dick he wasn't himself. He shot at me, and not to mention almost hit me with two bullets." Logan tells me. "He wasn't our Cassidy we used to take on surf trips. He just wasn't the same."

AN: Okay so this is kind of ended in a weird way but let me know if you want me to continue.
