Logan came in the suite to find, no surprise there, Dick and Mac glued to each other on the couch. Before they could even say hi, he dropped his board on the floor and went to the shower.
Dick kissed Mac apologetically and rose, stomping quite angrily toward his bff's bedroom. He grabbed Logan by the surf suit and yanked it back in the living room, to sit his ass on the couch. Mac watched, puzzled, but didn't say a word. Logan looked up startled. Dick looked at him gently, but firmly.
"First, dude, I love you, you're my pal... but you could say hi." Logan was about to speak, but Dick cut him. "Forget that now. Second.. you're so pathetic right now, I feel like the Dickster has to do something." Logan tried to speak again, and Dick dropped beside him on the couch. "Look, Lo... I just... want you to listen to that. Could you do that ? I know you don't want to talk about Ronnie and I don't want to tell you off cause you're sad, so... just listen. Ok ?"
Mac frowned, but Logan nodded, suspicious. Dick got up and slid Veronica's cd in the player. Mac hadn't payed attention to the lyrics, so either Dick had, or he knew the song. She watched him come back and make her sit on his lap. He was looking at Logan, who listened to Angela Ammons' lyrics, getting more confused every minute.
"Was I not enough stimulation
Hit by a brake the other day
Just when I thought that I'm okay
You didn't like my conversation
I can't come up with something new
It doesn't really matter what I do
So here's my observation
You could never see it through my eyes
And I'm too tired to try"
"I don't get why you want me to listen to this cheesy song." Logan started, but Dick gave him a dark look and he shut up again. He understood Dick's intentions a little better hearing the chorus.
"So don't call and say your coming back for me
Don't mean nothing
I'm always getting over you
And don't lie and say your over me
Don't mean nothing
I'm always getting over you"
He eyed Dick and Mac, seeing they were watching him, he looked away.
"Was it too much aggrevation
Your telling me the way that I won't see
And then I change my mind you disagree
I used to be our inspiration
You chase your mind you disappear
And I know it's never over"
It was the way it felt. They were never over. The fighting was never over. The pain was never over. But the loving wasn't either.
"So don't call and say your coming back for me
Don't mean nothing
I'm always getting over you
And don't lie and say your over me
Don't mean nothing
I'm always getting over you"
Mac was playing nervously his Dick's sleeve. Maybe it wasn't the good idea. Logan was looking like he wanted to cry, or just to punch a wall until noting remained but a bloody fist and pain.
"Was I not enough stimulation
Hit by a brake the other day
Just when I thought that I'm okay
You didn't like my conversation
And I can't come up with something new
It doesn't really matter what I do"
Logan let out a sad chuckle, sounding like a sob. It didn't really matter what Veronica did, he'd always be madly in love with her.
"So don't call and say your coming back for me
Don't mean nothing
I'm always getting over you
And don't lie and say your over me
Don't mean nothing
I'm always getting over you"
Dick sighed and got up, fishing back the cd he handed it to a teary eyed Logan and spat. "If you see Ronnie, you might give her back her cd. She's been listening to it over and over lately. Just so you know."
Mac felt sorry for Logan, but she trusted Dick, if he thought the electrical shock therapy would work, she'd let him try it. He led her to his bedroom and they almost didn't hear him whisper. "But what am I supposed to do ?"
