A/N: I had originally intended to go back to Veronica's p.o.v., but Logan felt I didn't give him enough space and time in the previous chapter to adequately explain his thoughts, so he badgered me until I gave in. Okay, he just flashed that cute smile at me and I caved.

Mind the Gap

"Where were you, lovah?" Lily's arms looped around Logan's midsection as he walked up to their usual lunch table.

He grinned down at her, slightly love-struck that she had let him back into her life again. Happiness bubbled inside though he wasn't stupid enough to let her know how much it affected him to have her touching him. He couldn't bear to give her that much power over him again; who knew how long their reconciliation would last this time. An hour? A day? Maybe a whole week?

"Had to stop by the girls' locker room to find which chick I'm banging this weekend at Dick's party."

"Hope she doesn't mind being the guest-star."

Logan's eyes nearly crossed at the thought of being in a threesome with wild child Lily. She often spouted outrageous things to him, but he knew she would never go through with it. Nor would he do it truth be told. Why would he want to share the girl he loved with anyone else, even another girl? He never learned to share well.

"Can I watch?" Dick's voice intruded into his rapidly darkening thoughts and he gratefully took the conversational handout.

"You just want to get a peek at my junk," Logan sniggered.

"Dude, that's wrong. Can I pick the other chick? There was this tasty blond in the front office this morning who looked like she knows how to par-tay, if you know what I mean." Dick made the universal male sign of a stacked figure.

Logan let out his breath as he realized his friend wasn't talking about the bobcat. He could only see Danger Will Robinson if the two girls interacted in a meaningful way; Lily was used to being the most feared girl at Neptune, but she was a pampered Persian compared to the new girl. He eyed the bow decorated headband holding back some of her long blond hair from her face and stifled a slightly hysterical chuckle.

"No, if we're bringing another chick into our bed, I want one who's not as pretty as me."

"So everyone else?" Logan made sure to disguise his sappy sentiment behind snark because he didn't couldn't bear for anyone to know that Lily Evangeline Kane was the prettiest girl he ever seen when he was five, and it still held true at seventeen.

"You're so getting a blow job later, you charmer." Lily's infectious laugh, the one missing for months now, filled the air between them and he wished this moment would last forever. Intellectually he knew tomorrow she'd be throwing food in his face and stomping off in a pretend huff so she could run behind the school and hook up with whatever flavor of the hour she picked up, but now, here, his heart could just revel in being the one who made her laugh.

A/N: Ok, probably one of the shortest pieces I've written in a long time, but Logan's lazy and easily distracted, so it is really surprising?
