I do not own Veronica mars or any of the characters besides Rachel, Cayden, Emilia, Erika, and Lilliana and a whole bunch of others. These people are based after my life and the people in it. If you don't already know Rachel and Emilia are based after me, what I look like, how I act and talk and the little characteristics like their defense mechanisms and their habits. They are my prides and joys! I hope you enjoy the story, it is a prequel to my first story 'The Greatest Love' I hope you like them both. Long Live the King Rob Thomas!
School was different this morning, quiet, maybe too quiet. None of the kids are whispering, or rumoring, what happened? I look around the school and my attention is set on a group of kids surrounding my locker. I walk up and make my way through the growing crowd. There on the locker were the words slut, whore, and bitch written in red nail polish. I knew exactly who did it.
I stomped down the hallway and saw Cayden and Sammy in the middle of a fight. "What the hell" he yelled.
Sammy was just as pissed, "What Cayden you thought I was going to sit back and let her waltz in here, break us up and not have another thing to say about it." She sneered.
"I told you nothing is going on, I broke up with you because I don't love you" he said looking at the floor.
Okay so Cayden and I are going to have to keep things quiet for a little while, good idea though I mean with all the paparazzi around. The Oscars are on their way and with both our parents up for awards we cant afford to mess things up. Oscars are tricky things to get, they aren't given 100 by how good you acted or directed or produced, they were given to those who had little scandal and problems. They were all political and this was not going to be an easy time.
Cayden stomped down the hall and walked right past me giving me a tired smile. This wasn't going to be easy.
At lunch I sent him a text 'your car 3 minutes'. He was there in two and we were already in the back in the middle of a steamy makeout session. I broke the kiss and tried to look serious.
"Cayden, people cant know about us, I mean not right now" I said waiting for an answer.
He just nodded looking at our intertwined fingers. "I wish everyone could know, but the timing is just off." He said looking miserable.
"It wont be long, we can be normal after the awards" I say grabbing his colar and smiling.
"Well secrets are kinda hot too" he says kissing me.
I push him off and look at his with a joking shock expression, "Where have I heard that?" thinking back to those dinners where our parents would get together and tell stories about their youth. "Cayden Echolls did you just steal a line from your dad" I say with a playful shrug.
"Well I thought it worked for him it would work for me" he said with a chuckle pulling me into another kiss and pushing me back so I was laying on the seat. His hands began their exploration when I heard the bell ring. "we can skip" he said breathlessly.
"Nope, time for class, this will just have to wait till after school, your sisters are still staying with Keith and Alicia right?" I ask pushing him off and checking my make up in the mirror.
"Yep, the house to ourselves" he said pulling me in for one last kiss. I climb out of the car and look around. When the coast was clear we both got out and walked toward the school keeping our distance.
Just Three more days until Oscar night then we could finally be seen together, I know it has only been a day but acting like we didn't even like each other was starting to get on my nerves. We drop off Erika at home and I tell her that Cayden and I are going to his place to work on our Human Bio projects. She knows what we are really doing and just winks closing the door and skipping up to the house.
The door slams shut and I am soon shoved against it my legs wrapped around his middle and his mouth attacking my neck. "Oh god" I moan, looking over the situation.
The phone is ringing and I can feel him tense up. "The quicker you get that the quicker we can finish this" I say with a giggle in my voice. He gets off and puts me on the ground running to the phone in the kitchen. The talking is finished and I begin to tie my shoe, I can feel someone standing in front of me. "No matter how many times you ask, I am not going to blow you…. "I look up and stop in my tracks. "Mr. Echolls, sir"
His face is a mix of amused and serious. "how are you sweetheart" he asks kindly.
"Fine Logan, umm I was just kidding about earlier….i mean like we" he stops me with a nod.
"Cayden come get your girlfriend before she digs herself into an even bigger hole." He says with a wink and walked into the kitchen.
"What happened?" Cayden asked seeing the bright red hugh of my cheeks.
"oh same old same old I told your dad I wasn't going to blow him, you know the usual" Cayden started laughing hysterically.
"Well I know what will make you feel better, my dad is going to take you to the Oscars." He said with a smile.
"What?"
"Yeah he is going to take you and your mother is taking me, so we can be together on the big night." He said with a huge grin.
"O My God." I squeal jumping up into his arms and kissing him passionately.
"Put that girl down" Logan said with a smile.
"Okay" he pouts putting me down.
