Drish29: Thank you!

Monday morning and she still hadn't been able to get Logan out of her head. Somehow he suspected she was lying about Lilly cheating on him and was mad at her for lying. What did he want from her? How could she tell him his girlfriend was cheating on him with his father?! She was mad at Lilly for putting her in this position, surely Lilly was feeling some sort of guilt over the whole thing?

"Good morning Veronica Mars, you're looking chipper." Lilly greeted as Veronica jumped into the front seat of Lilly's car.

"Where's Duncan?" She asks.

"Caught a lift with Logan."

"Oh."

"Don't worry Ronica, we'll be at school soon and you can have all the nauseating Donut love your heart desires." Lilly says, misinterpreting Veronica's mood at her being put out at Duncan not being there.

By the time they had reached Neptune High, Veronica's mood hadn't improved. She was eager to track down Logan and see if she had been forgiven. It was odd, to have a fight with someone, especially Logan, without words, the Logan and Veronica of her time were always quick to fling hurtful words at one another.

She drags Lilly towards Duncan and Logan's lockers under the guise of needing to see Duncan. As the girls approach, she can see Logan joking with Duncan, the moment their eyes meet however, his expression closes off and he becomes broody Logan.

"Donut thank god, I thought Veronica was going to have a meltdown if she didn't see you this morning. She's been little miss mopey every since she got into my car." Duncan's eyes light up at the thought of Veronica missing him that much and she feels momentarily guilty.

"Miss me, Baby?" He asks, holding his arms out toward her, and because it's what's expected of her, she goes into them and kisses him gently on the lips. She hears Lilly gagging behind them and wants to flip her off. She so wasn't in the mood for Lilly Kane this morning.

"Ah young love." Logan's voice chimes in. Duncan smiles and takes Logan's words as a joke, but Veronica can hear the bitterness in his tone. She bites her lip to keep from sighing, keeping her attention on Duncan and ignoring Logan's comment. She can't see him but she can sense he is growing more annoyed, Logan hated to be ignored.

The bell rings and the friends separate. Logan heads down the hall and Veronica follows him, they share the class he is headed to but it would seem he isn't interested in walking with her. They approach the girls bathroom, Veronica's old "office", grabbing Logan's arm, she pulls him into the bathroom, when she stands between him and the door she pulls the out of order sign she had printed that morning, from her bag and slaps it on the door, closing it behind her and sticking the door stopper under it.

"Kidnapping Veronica? Did Duncan get you all riled up and since you knew he'd never have his way with you at school, or well ever, you figured why not good old reliable Logan?" Logan snarks, jumping up to sit on the bathroom counter.

"Logan, shut up." Because that's the only reply she has. He arches an eyebrow and looks amused at her less than creative response.

"You're angry at me." She says, wishing she didn't have to have this conversation.

"Why would I be angry at you Veronica?" What possible reason could I have for being angry at sweet, friend to all, innocent Veronica?!" He demands, jumping off of the counter and moving closer to her.

"Because of our conversation yesterday." She doesn't want to say it, she wants to avoid saying the actual words.

"You mean when I asked you if you thought I should break up with Lilly because she was seeing someone else and you basically told me it was all in my head?" He's really mad and Veronica can feel herself getting angry too. This wasn't her fault, Lilly was the one who was cheating, why was he taking it out on her?

"I told you to talk to her, that's a funny thought isn't it Logan, talking to your girlfriend about your relationship!" He scowls at her but stays silent.

"Your relationship is just that, your relationship it's none of my business."

"If you knew she was cheating on me, would you tell me?" Logan asks.

"She's my best friend Logan."

"And I'm your friend, or at least I thought I was."

"Of course you are. But I'm sorry, Lilly hasn't told me anything." Which wasn't a lie.

"But you suspect." She doesn't answer, can't bring herself to lie to him, he's the victim in all this, but her face is answer enough.

"Yeah that's what I thought." He says, storming past her and out of the bathroom.

"God Veronica Mars, what is your problem? You've been super moody all day." Lilly remarks on the drive home. It's just the two of them since Duncan is at soccer practice. Lilly's right, Veronica has been moody all day, she can't shake the memory of Logan's face when she had all but confirmed Lilly's infidelity. How could Lilly live with herself every day? Did she really not care about Logan's feelings that much? It was something Veronica had wanted to ask Lilly for a long time and now she was presented with the opportunity to finally get answers, she just worried she wouldn't like them.

"Lilly are you going to break up with Logan?"

"Whoa where did that come from? Are you secretly harbouring feelings for Logan, was it my talk of threesomes the other day? Thinking about throwing me out and taking both boys?" Lilly jokes. Veronica's tightly controlled anger snaps.

"Could you just be serious for a second, please!"

"Ok, chill, I'm sorry I didn't realise this was serious."

"You didn't realise my asking you if you're going to dump your boyfriend of almost two years, was a serious question?"

"Sorry, no and I'm not sure yet, there's something about this time that feels so final." Lilly is serious now.

"So if you don't break up with him are you going to keep seeing the other guy?" Lilly is shocked, her eyes questioning.

"I know Lilly."

"Know what?"

"That you're cheating on Logan, and so does he, well he suspects."

"How do you know?"

"That's hardly what's important here." Veronica says, rolling her eyes.

"Why should I tell him Veronica? I've never made a secret of the fact that I need more than one guy, that I'm not his happily ever after. I'm not the right kind of girl that Logan needs."

"So that makes it ok to cheat on him?!" Veronica is really angry now, how can Lilly have so little disregard for Logan's feelings?

"Do you not see that these are actual human lives, emotions, that you are playing with?! Logan loves you Lilly." She's been so wrapped up in their argument she hasn't realised they are now parked outside her house. Lilly is watching Veronica closely.

"Sometimes Veronica, love isn't enough." She says, as if Veronica is too innocent and naive to understand the ways of the world.

"And sometimes Lilly, it is. Logan is not a toy you can play with, he deserves more than that."

"Well maybe I'm just too selfish for that."

"Bullshit, you are only selfish when you want to be." She swings open the car door, jumps out and slams it behind her, putting an end to their argument. She storms up the drive and she doesn't look back.
