Chapter Four

-Veronica's POV-

Today sucked I woke up late so I had to skip breakfast then I got a flat tire on the way to school and Logan drove by laughing so I was humiliated in front of everyone then finally two hours later I got to school only to realize...

It's Saturday!

Woo-hoo the life of Veronica Mars rocks!

-I'm a barbie girl in a barbie world everyth...- "Hello?" I said as I answered my phone.

"What? No, no, no! That's not possible!" I screamed into the phone.

I fell to the ground crying.

No I won't be this weak come on Veronica keep it together I told myself.

I quickly hung up the phone and got in my car to drive to the hospital.

On the way there I got stopped at a red light and who should drive up next to me but the school's jackass Logan Echolls "Hey Ronnie Why the long face? Your Dad leave too? Bahahahaha!"

I just looked at him tears threatening to spill over and run down my face I ran the red light and kept going to the hospital.

When I finally got to the hospital I went in to see my Dad there he lay barely breathing looking weaker than I'd ever seen him I sat down next to him held his hand and cried and cried and cried.

Then the unthinkable happened I heard the flat-line the nurses and doctors rushed in and ushered me out they said I had to leave so they could try to resuscitate my father.

An hour and a half later they came out and told me my Father had died they said they did everything they could but unfortunately they couldn't save him.

I slid down the wall and cried.

I had no one.

The last person who loved me was gone.

My Dad was dead my Mom ran away and Lilly my best friend in the whole world was dead.

Everyone at school hated me and now I would have to fight in court to keep my house and not have to be put with some foster family.

I drove home tears crowding my vision all I wanted was to hug Lilly and have my Dad hold me but never again could I do that!

"WHY ME?"

Two weeks later

I hadn't been to school.

I'd had just had Dad's funeral and I found myself in court battling to stay on my own.

After all I was 17 almost 18 they had to say yes...

Didn't they?

3 hours later.

And the verdict is..

"Veronica Mars please stand." The Bailiff said

I stood "The court hereby states that as long as you stay in school and get a job you Veronica Mars may be emancipated and keep everything that belonged to your Father."

I stood there crying "Thank you Thank you" I cried as they escorted me out of the court room.

Well I guess I'm on my own now.

Just me and Back-up.

I'm going back to school tomorrow.

I Haven't told anyone that Dad is dead and I'm not planning on it!'

Well that's not totally true Weevil came over when I hadn't come to school in 3 days and I told him what happened he sat with me and hugged me while I cried.

He's been coming over every day since!

Now he's my bestfriend!

But other than him I'm not telling anyone!

Ever.

Ok, ok so I'll have to tell them sometime but not right now.

I don't feel like getting extra made fun of.

Dad has only been dead for two weeks I don't want everyone laughing at me for having no parents.

No one except Eli knows my secret and I want to keep it that way.

Ok well School is tomorrow so I better get some sleep.

-Logan's POV-

Oh my God Veronica is so frustrating what's wrong with her?

I make fun of her and she looks at me like she's about to cry and drives off then she doesn't show up to school for two weeks.

I need to know what's going on with her.

Maybe I should go see her.

Maybe she moved I mean why would she tell me if she did what have I done to deserve to know that?

Nothing that's what Logan nothing you've done nothing.

I should go see her tomorrow after school.

I'm going to see Veronica and make sure she's ok.

I miss her so much I wish we could be friends again.

Oh well she hates me anyway.

We can never be friends again...

My phone rang I grabbed it and answered I don't know who was calling this late.

"Hello?" I said

"Hey Logan!"

"Kathy?"

"hehehehehehsnortheheheh yes it's me I was wondering... Do you maybe wanna hook up?"

"Sure... When?"

"Now?"

"Ok"

"Awesome! I'll be right over! Heehee!"

Well Kathy arrived about 10 minutes later and well my night didn't go as planned she ended up crying and talking about her ex so that's how my night was.

She left some time around 3:28am and I went to bed.

But you know I felt better in the morning and Veronica didn't cross my mind once.

Seriously.

She didn't..

I swear...

So? What did you think? Love it? Hate it? Rate it!

Hope you enjoyed it!

Sorry to those of you who liked Keith Mars I just never liked his character so I decided to kill him off.
