Thanks for all the reviews! The last chapter I made a mistake and rated it 'M' but I fixed it. Sorry about that! Happy Reading! :)
"Dude! I told you that you could totally kick her ass!" Dick cheers in the backseat.
"What can I say, I'm bad-ass" It's better to agree with Dick. I'd rather not get into the details with him about this, again.
"Veronica, I don't understand why we're going to see Duncan. What's he got to do with this?" Meg asks confused.
"Logan and Duncan started a war" Wallace comments.
"What?" Meg asks shocked.
"Dude! Logan said not to tell the girls till after we get to school" Dick looks at Wallace wide eyed.
"Dude, Veronica already knows, what's the point of hiding it?"
"To not let the girls know, duh" Dick answers in an obvious voice and I can't help but laugh at Dick.
"After I talk to Duncan there's not going to be any kind of war going on" I say while driving.
"Ronnie I know you think you're superwoman but you can't stop wars!" Dick says as though I'm trying to do the impossible.
"I can stop this war" I say. It's not that big of a deal. I just have to get Duncan to agree and everything will be okay.
"Hold up a second! Duncan and Logan are going to war? I don't understand" Meg asks in bewilderment.
Just as I finish explain the situation we arrive at the Kane house
"My, my Miss Mars, two visits in one day? I'm starting to think you've got a crush on me." Lilly smirks at me.
"Aw stop Lilly you'll make me blush" I say like a girl who was just complimented.
"What do you want now?" She asks
"I want to talk to Duncan" I say seriously
"Why?"
"Don't play dumb Lilly, I know you know" I get edgy.
"Aw Veronica are you that afraid of us Kane's, you had to bring tweeddle Dee, tweeddle Dumb and Alice"
"Only the best for you," I fake a smile. "Where's Duncan?"
"He'll be back in a bit, why do you care anyway?" she asks
"I'm ending it" I say
"Aw you're breaking up with him. That's too bad. I was hoping for a sister... not"
"Lilly, whatever happened was between us. I don't want the entire school involved." I say again ignoring her comment.
"Too late" She says with a somewhat sad tone.
"It's not. If Duncan agrees to put this behind him so will Logan" I explain.
"Wow Veronica, you have Logan wrapped around you little finger. You say jump and he says how high?" She sounds jealous?
"God Lilly give up the act for one freakin minute! I just want this to be over. You go back to ruling the school and I go back to not giving a damn." I say frustrated.
"Duncan's not going to let this go"
"I can at least try"
"What the hell are you all doing here?" Duncan shouts when he spots us.
"Oh Donut don't be so dramatic, it really doesn't suit you" Lilly says rolling her eyes.
"We came to speak to you" I answer
"What's done is done. It cannot be undone" He sounds like a freaking robot from one of those video games Logan plays. Talk about weird.
"Lilly and I are big girls we can handle our fight by ourselves we don't need you and Logan or the entire school to get involved!"
"Logan should have thought about that before he threaten Lilly"
"Well can you really blame him? Lilly attacked Veronica! Everyone saw it. Veronica did nothing to provoke her. Don't you think it's a little unjust for you to get involved? It happened at Logan's house, Logan is Lilly's ex and Veronica is Logan's best friend. Don't you think he would have thought it was because of him that's why he got involved?" Meg yells at Duncan and we are all left in silence.
"Why would it be about him?" Duncan asks confounded.
"What else is the common denominator between them?" Wallace asks in a 'duh' voice
"Look Duncan, we didn't come here to argue. Logan agreed to let it go, everything will go back to normal. Lilly will still be Queen and we'll all move on with our merry lives."
"Why?" He sounded wary.
"We made a deal. Now I'm making a deal with you. Let it go and everything will go back to normal. Or as normal as it usually is"
"I can't just let it go, sides have been picked it's too late"
"Arg! What is wrong with you guys? Why do you WANT bloodshed? Just stick to your stupid video games if it's that important to you!" Meg yells shocking all of us once again. What has gotten into Meg? I like it "And don't you dare say it's too late! When you snapped your fingers giving the orders, it took, what seconds for it all to initiate? You didn't say it's too soon, did you? I bet no one questioned your or Logan's orders. If you snapped your fingers and said stop, it would! No questions asked! So don't talk crap about how you CAN'T, it's just that you WON'T. Why is that? Do you want people to see that you're not just Prince for namesake? That you can talk the talk and walk the walk? Why does it matter? Non of them care! I care! I saw you for more than your namesake. You asked me if I would be your girlfriend. I was going to answer yes before this happened. If this is who you want to be, if you want to continue war with my friends when you can just agree to let it go and this whole thing will blow over, then I won't be your anything. Duncan, I'm giving you the choice, agree to end this war, which by the way I think is completely ridiculous, not even Lilly, the person you're supposedly doing this for wants. Or the answer is no and you're never to talk to me again and I won't stand in Logan's way. It your choice." Meg ends with dried tears staining her cheeks and swallowing back the tears that threaten to fall. No one dared to speak. Duncan's features hold shock but soften up a bit at Meg's speech.
"Meg..." Duncan says softly reaching for Meg's hand. "This doesn't have anything to do with us"
Meg laughs humorlessly, the tears fall once again "They are my best friends, whatever you have against them, it becomes my business which means it has something to do with us!"
"It's not that simple-" she shakes he head cutting him off looking at him in disbelief.
"Don't" She stops him and I never heard her sound so hard before.
"I..." He tries talking but unsure of what to say.
"Just stop" She commands in a watery voice and runs off before the Kane siblings witness any more.
"Donut, don't be a douche, I know you like her, a lot. Go after her. I appreciate the sentiment but really I don't want my brother as my knight in shining armor. Actually I think I prefer my knight in a leather jacket. Just go."
"Lilly..."
"Go, don't make me use the 'I'm big, you're small line'." She threatens playfully and he gives a half hearted smile, going after the group that left only a minute ago.
"Meg!" He yells but the car is too far gone out of the driveway for him to be seen.
After I drop Dick and Wallace off I talk to Meg.
"Meg are you okay?" I ask, stupid question. Of course she's not.
"No" She says weakly and starts tearing up again. "I just can't believe him, I thought, I thought he'd choose me."
"He's an idiot to do otherwise, you're the best person I know"
"Not good enough to stop a war though"
"He just really loves his sister" And he has pride
"She didn't even want it! It's just about his stupid manly pride. I really liked him but I won't be with someone who's at war with my friends. Sure Logan can be aggressive and he has a temper but he has a limit to the amount of crap that he can take and Lilly pushed it when she attacked you"
"He's an over protective brother, probably thinking he knows best. I think Logan may have pushed him a bit too hard. Neither of us have a good enough excuse to have done what we did, but I guess it's understandable to a certain point. Thank you Meg, for sticking up for us, if it weren't for you he would have probably just called security to through us out, you calmed him a bit, made him realize that he has a choice and if this thing gets worse he can't play the victim card."
"Yeah but I wasn't enough to stop it though. But you got Logan to agree to stop the war"
"That's because I agreed to forgive him about his rules about me, I made a deal"
"He started it because of you, because he loves you and he stopped it because of you, because he loves you. If anyone else had made any kind of deal with Logan he would never have accepted, he'd probably laugh and flip them off."
"Yeah and he was protecting me just like Duncan was protecting Lilly"
"No not love as in friendly love. Love as in he's in love with you" She says smiling at me
"He is not" I argue
"He is and you're in love with him" Damn!
"I am not" I argue even though I know she's right about me loving him.
"Come on Veronica, stop denying it. Everyone sees it except Logan. And everyone sees that Logan's in love with you except you"
"Uh..." I am loss for words.
"That's why Lilly attacked you. Logan's in love with you and not her. She could get any guy to fall in love with her but not Logan because he's in love with his best friend" Meg explains
"Huh?" Wait what?
"Think about it Veronica, you're a smart gal" She says jumping out of the car and waving me off, leaving me thinking, what just happened?
I hope you all enjoyed this chapter!
Please Review! :)
