Three days later he was walking through the doors of Neptune High hand-in-hand with Veronica. They had spent the past couple of days catching each other up on what had been happening in each others lives. He decided the best course of action was not to say too much so not to worry her about the hell he had left. Although they had talked about themselves she had not talked about the people at school, Logan realized he had no idea what was going to happen. Everyone was nice to him and threw apologetic glances and comments, the bandage on his head may have been a real give away for those who had yet to hear the gossip. If there was one thing that was constant in any reality it was that Neptune High was always buzzing with the latest and greatest about the top people in school.
They walked to his locker and she pulled out his schedule she had Wallace revise for her. "Okay I've got English, math and science with you, and then we have journalism with Duncan and independent study, and 6th period off role."
"Cant get enough of me Mars" he ginned.
"Someone has to help catch you up, I mean now that you are mentally damaged" she snarked pointing to his head.
"We prefer to call ourselves the intellectually challenged." He said proudly.
"WE?" she joked. "Oh you and the little voices in you head" she smiled. "Just beware when they start saying 'REDRUM", just say no!" she joked again.
He loved the way she was, it was a mix from the sweet and innocent girl, she was with the Fab Four. And the rock hard, protective, Veronica he had come to know after Lilly's death. She would still kick your ass, but she would be doing it in a pink dress.
He found out the day after his 'wake up' that she still had he long beautiful hair that used to make him smile. He loved seeing all the ways she would do it. Not saying he didn't like the short hair too, anything on her looked great. But the short hair was always a reminder of all the hell she went through and the new tough as nails girl she had become. She wore a pair of jeans and a pink button down blouse with a white gold heart necklace. He recognized it as the one Lilly gave her for her 16th birthday.
Lilly was off to UCLA she visited all the time and she was more in Neptune now then when she actually lived here. She was living it up as a campus chick and even joined a sorority (Surprise, Surprise). However she missed everyone back home and couldn't help missing her parents.
"Hey man" Wallace said patting him on the shoulder. "Remember me" he asked.
"Yeah Veronica's best friend, great point guard" he said as if reading it off a list of facts he memorized.
"Yeah she and Lilly cut me down my first day of school, and since then I haven't been able to get her away from me." He joked, earning him a playful swat on the arm.
"Your really pushing the limits on the BFF rules, I think the first one is 'thou shall not make fun of the BFF'" she said with a mock pout.
"Okay, Okay, hey I have to go I am helping this new girl Jackie with a case" he said withy a grin.
"A case without me?" Veronica looked shock.
"Yeah finally I Wallace Fennel will be the knight in shining armor, instead of the sidekick" he said brushing off his shoulders.
"Fine go, but don't think I am not going to help, I will be running a background check later" she said.
"I wouldn't expect anything less" he said with a smile running off down the hall.
Logan smiled at the two, totally in trance with how she was with him; he hoped that he still had that with Duncan. He hadn't talked to Duncan in the past couple of days and wasn't sure if they were friends or not.
Logan turned down the hall and saw Duncan and Meg making their way up, Meg gave him a hug. "I am so sorry" she said.
"Why should you be sorry?" he asked confused.
"Meg's the one who pushed you" Duncan said trying hard to suppress a laugh.
"I did not I tripped, you were by the ledge and….. o god Logan I am so sorry" she said tears forming in her eyes. Duncan rolled his eyes; he couldn't see how she was getting so worked up.
"It's alright, see" he said putting his head down. "Brains in tact, just a few clouded memories nothing big" he said shrugging his shoulders.
She put on a smile and cuddled next to Duncan again whose eyes were fixed down the hallway. A small smile crept on his face as he saw something, before Logan could turn around two small hands slid across his eyes. "Guess Who?" she asked.
"Uh, Willy Wonka" he said with a laugh.
"Logan you really do suck at that game" she said taking her hands away. Logan turned around to get a good look at this mystery girl. She had shoulder length Reddish hair with bright green eyes that reminded him of a lion. She had a bright genuine smile, something he had a hard time seeing in most girls at school. She looked at the way he was looking at her puzzled. "Don't remember me do you" she giggled.
Logan just shook his head "Sorry"
"Don't worry about it, you took quit a spill, I am Catherine" she said pulling out her hand.
"Cat?" he asked kind of smiling at the irony of her name and her eyes.
"Yep" she said.
Just before she could get another word in she was lifted up into the air and twirled around. Logan shot up and pulled her out of Dick's arms. "What the hell man, you cant treat people like that" Logan snapped. Where the hell did that come from he thought, Veronica just smiled and took his hand trying to comfort him. She loved it when he stood up for others.
"Logan chill man, she's mine" he said snuggling behind her and kissing her neck. She looked a little distant, but Logan just thought it was the shock of his outburst.
"Sorry, just everything is so different" Logan finally felt tired, all this new information flew through his head and he didn't know how much more he could take.
"Yeah we have been dating almost a year and a half now." Dick said kissing her again. "She is the best thing that ever happened to me, I mean after I broke up with Madison for the billionth time I thought it was going to be like that forever until she came into my life." He snuggled closer.
Was dick actually prounouncing his feelings for his girlfriend? In public? O god this place is different. Logan felt a little woozy and leaned back a little, Veronica took on his weight and began walking him down the hall.
"Logan needs some time to adjust we will see you at lunch." She yelled as they walked away.
They walked out of the doors and she propped him against the wall trying to get him to calm down and breath. After he composed himself he looked at her and felt his heart begin to pound. He saw the same loving and caring eyes he thought he lost so long ago. The time of his mothers death, and the first weeks they were together, the eyes that weren't sympathetic or lying but the ones which told him everything was going to be alright.
He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her up into a long passionate kiss. He was going to be able to start over, and this time there was nothing in the way, no rape, no best friend murder, no old boyfriends, no secrets, no lack of trust. They were a fresh tablet, with nothing in the way. And soon his headache was gone and he felt as though he wanted to know everything about this Neptune, This time, This Veronica.
After the first couple of classes went by, Logan was not that far back as he had expected, after the trial and going to summer school he was caught up in most of his classes. Of course he fell behind when he started ditching school to didle Kendall but he wasn't as far back as he expected.
He decided to write a list of all the things he knows about this time
veronica and I have been dating since jr year.
Lilly is alive and in college.
Veronica and Duncan are related.
Duncan is with Meg.
Wallace is Veronica's best friend.
Dick is with a nice girl named Cat.
Veronicas dad is a pi
our first kiss was at the Camelot
my dad is in prison for Murder
my mom is still alive
Wow if I would have shown this list to myself a week ago I would have laughed and said something stupid like 'In my dreams.' Maybe this is a dream, maybe I will wake up and things will go back to the terrible way they were. He thought.
Veronica saw him and concern filled her eyes as she swept her hand across his arm. "Hey sweetie, you okay?" he nodded and looked back at the yearbook she had pulled out to show him. "We were homecoming queen and king" she said pointing at the picture of them in formal dress with crowns. "Meg and Duncan got prom king and queen, you would always yell, 'I want a recount' when he would take the crown" she giggled.
"Sounds like me" he smiled going down memory lane.
"Here are some of the pictures from last year" she said turning the page to show all the random pictures.
"Beaver is with Gia?" he asked remembering meeting the perky, preppy daughter of the mayor candidate.
"Yeah she was suppose to move here this year but her dad got divorced and they moved the end of last year." She said pointing at a picture of the 09er table they were all sitting at.
He smiled and looked at Veronica placing a gentle kiss at the top of her head and taking in the slight smell of her apple conditioner. He always loved the way she smelled, he also loved the was she felt and spoke.
"I love you" he said sincerely.
She looked up and smiled however he could see the look of hesitation in her eyes. "Logan I know all of this is still new for you, I just want you to be comfortable, you don't have to say it if you don't want to" she said.
"I love you Veronica no matter where or when we are. I have always loved you"
"I love you too Logan, I am so happy your feeling better, you have no idea how scared I was when it happened I thought I lost you forever." She said tears forming in her eyes.
"Hey" he said pulling up her chin to look at him. "Your not getting rid of me that easily" he joked and soon the tears were gone, her sparkling smile back in place.
Lunch came and they walked over to the 09er table sitting down and pulling up a carton of the take out Chinese. They began eating when Veornica shrieked. "Logan stop" she said and he jerked the food from his mouth.
She pulled at the box and pulled out a shrimp showing it to him. "Thank you" he said leaning in and giving her a kiss.
"Hey I am just protecting my assets" she said with a smile going back to her chow mein and handing him a carton of orange chicken.
Cat walked up and looked across the table at Luke "Your psycho girlfriend is really pissed" she said.
"I will take care of it" he said jumping up from the table and walking into the school.
"Psycho Girlfriend?" Logan asked turning around to look at the couple. They were in the middle of a heated argument; Madison's face was getting so red he thought it was going to explode. Then Luke said something wrapping his hand around her waist and before long they were making out.
"Huh" he said astonished.
"Yep they have been like that for a year now, it is always hot and cold with those two" piped up Meg she looked over at Logan with a smile.
Wallace walked up and sat down on the bench with a loud plop grabbing a carton with a angry frown.
"So grumpy Wallace" Veronica joked.
"Did you know that our parents are going to San Diego together?" he said.
"No, ewww" she said putting her hands to her ears.
"Yep they are having their one year anniversary" he said with a shiver.
"You don't think he will ask….." she said with a knowing look.
"Hey I get top bunk" he joked.
She smiled in return they had learned a long time before that they were going to have to learn to accept their parents being together. Keith had finally mustered the courage to get a divorce and buy a ring, now it was a matter of what time.
The conversation was typical, they talked about the parties they had the weekend before and the ones they were planning. They decided to have it at Logan's house since his mom was out of town on a shoot.
After independent study they finally got to go home, they had sixth period off and realized they had a lot more time to hang out before they had to go home and start the little homework and chores they had. They crowded around Logan's x-terra and talked. A small boy around 3 or 4 ran up and into Cat's big hug.
"heya bugaboo" she cooed kissing his head. "Did you have fun with Juanita today" she asked referring to his nanny.
He giggled as she tickled his sides and said, "Yeah, we watch'd Spanish sesame street" he said.
"You did what did you learn?" she asked with a smile.
He whispered in her ear and she giggled, "Very good" she said giving him another kiss.
She then looked at the man who had brought him by and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "What are you doing here?" she asked.
"No, no, no, you said you would watch him tonight while I go to my meeting and date." He snapped.
"Okay" she exclaimed throwing her hands up in a mock surrender.
He seemed to calm and shook his head. "Sorry I have just been worked at the office, see you later buddy" he leaned in and gave him a kiss on the cheek and walked away.
"Bye daddy" he said with a wave of his tiny hand. He turned around and looked at Cat, "Auntie kitty what we doin tonight?" he asked
"I don't know bud what do you want to do?" she asked
Logan let out a breath he didn't even know he was holding. This was her nephew, he wasn't quite sure how he would be able to handle to think that she had a kid when she was 14 with a guy who looked like he was in his early twenties.
"Oh logan this is Matty my nephew" she said turning the boy to face Logan.
"He knows me auntie, right Logan?" he said confused now.
"that's right little man" he said with a smile not wanting to upset the boy with an explanation.
"That was Matty's dad Mark he was married to Cat's sister Cathy she died giving birth to matty so Mark and Cat raise him together" Veronica whispered in his ear.
Logan nodded his head in acceptance to the explanation now that he had all the information he was feeling better. Cat put him down and looked around, Matty walked up to Logan and gave him a high five. Logan looked up and saw weevil scoop him up in his arms and blow on his belly.
"Hey chico, hows it hanging" he laughed turing the boy upside down so his feet were in weevils hands.
"Eli your funny" he said pulling himself up onto his back.
"Eli?" Logan repeated giving a glare toward Weevil.
"Whats going on with rich boy" he asked looking at Veronica.
"He has amnesia" she answered confused at Logan's reaction. Carmen walked up behind Weevil and pulled Matt off giving him a hug before putting him on the ground. She then kissed Weevil on the cheek. "Ready to go?" she asked sweetly.
"Yeah, hold on a second" he said trying to figure out Logan's problem. Sensing conflict Cat broke in.
"How was your day with Eli at the Zoo" she asked.
"We had soooooo much fun, we saw a lion and a monkey and hipp……hippo….hippono" he said trying to get out the word.
"Hippo" she said.
"Yeah and Eli took me on his bike, he said I am a big boy" he said, weevil tried to walk away.
"He did, did he?" she said through gritted teeth. "Honey remember when Logan let you watch old school, and I got really angry" she said. Logan smiled, god he is bad with kids. The boy nodded and she continued "remember ear muffs" he smiled and nodded again.
"Okay ear muffs" she said, he giggled and threw his hands up clamping his ears. She stood straight up and yelled "Eli Navarro."
He stopped in mid stride and turned on his heel to face the pissed off chica. "Okay, 1 it was only for a block, two I got him a helmet that fit, and three he is old enough to be on one." He said explaining his case.
She looked defeated and calmly said, "Not again, I don't get why you have to get him on one of those things" she said.
"He is a cool kid, he deserves to have some fun, plus I haven't done anything else bad with him"
"O really you mind telling me what kind of conversation you were having around a four year old where he learned the word "VATO" she said.
Weevil just looked at Veronica who blushed with embarrassment. Cat just laughed at everyone, "You are all incorrigible." She said with a sigh telling matt to put his hands down.
They all left and walked to their separate cars, Logan and Veronica went to her place and walked up the steps to the apartment. Before they even had the door open he already had her pressed against it in a heated passionate kiss. His hands moving along her body as their tongues dueled around her mouth.
"Now there is nothing different about this place, I am not going to find out you have a live in Baywatch lover right?" he said with a smirk.
"Oh no Tommy left weeks ago, we should be all set" she laughed pulling him in for another kiss as she turned the door handle and they fell through the door. They walked in never breaking contact and his foot managed to kick the door shut. They lounged on the couch, him on top as he rubbed his hands over he clothes.
She leaned up and pulled off her jacket and shirt helping him with his, they then went back to their explorations. His mouth moving down her neck and across her chest making his way with soft kissed along the seem of the flimsy bra material. Her breath hitched as he moved it aside and pulled her tender nipple in between his teeth. He smiled against her skin at her reaction, he always loved that sound.
She moved her had along her back and undid her bra pulling it off and on the floor next to her jacket and shirt. He took her in and moved his hands over her milky breasts as he attacked her mouth with his. They fought for dominance again and he could feel himself get arm when he rubbed his hand between her legs and could feel the heat, even with her jeans on.
He ground against her, they both moaned at the friction and she moved her hand down the panel of his chest and began playing with the tops of his pants. She undid the zipper and slid her hand in past his boxers and wrapped it around his growing erection.
He groaned at the feel and moaned "Oh god Veronica" as she continued to stroke him. "I want inside that tight little body of yours" he said. And could feel her body tense a bit. He then slid hands to the button and zipper of her pants and pulled them down along with her panties until she was fully naked. She was still tense and he could see the look of fear and anticipation across her face.
"Don't worry Ronnie, I want to feel you with this." He said slipping his finger into her and could feel her contract around it. "You like that baby" he cooed watching her eyes close as she chewed on her bottom like to suppress her moans. She kept stroking him as well and they were breathing and jerking at one another's touch.
"Oh Veronica" he said Cumming on her hand. He jerked his fingers in another couple of times before she side the same. They panted trying to catch their breath while Logan got up and walked into the bathroom. He cleaned up a bit and walked into her bedroom, she was slipping on some underwear and PJ pants and shirt while walking back to the couch sitting down and pulling out their books.
"So English or Math" she said with a satisfied smirk.
