CHAPTER 3

"I'm not asking you on a date Veronica. We've only known each other for a few hours. I just wanna hang out, you know?" Logan added.

"I don't know, Logan. Let's just see how things go first, okay?" Veronica said.

"Yea, sounds good…but if you think that I'm going to change my mind in 24 hours, then you're seriously deluded." Logan said with a laugh.

"Very Funny, Echolls. Shouldn't you be working on the questions you're going to ask Bodie tomorrow?" Veronica asked.

"Yea, because we all want this to be like The Shining. All work and no play would quite possibly drive me crazy." Logan replied with a smirk.

"Perhaps," Veronica said with a nod, "but in order for it to be all work and no play…you'd actually have to do some work."

"Touché, but come on, Ronnie, be nice." Logan said with a smile.

"This is me being nice." Veronica replied as she lifted her eyebrow.

The bell rang, Veronica picked up her bag and headed towards the door. Logan got up and followed suit.

"So...See you later?" Logan asked.

"Yea, sure. Bye." Veronica replied and walked off.

AFTERSCHOOL

Veronica and Wallace were standing at their lockers, which happened to be next to each other.

"Come on Veronica!" Wallace said.

"What? No Wallace, it's too cold. No way." Veronica said.

"This is California! It's never too cold to go to the beach. Let's go! It's your civic duty to welcome me into the community, which by the way, entails you to taking me to the beach." Wallace explained.

"Ugh. Just so you know, this isn't at all helping your chances at becoming my BFF. But yes, we can go to the beach for a little while. I'm only doing this because I feel sorry for you." Veronica said.

"Yea, alright. Just admit it Mars, you're a marshmallow-a twinkie!" Wallace said with a smile.

"Uh-huh. Not helping, Wallace" Veronica replied, "Let's go, because unlike most of the people around here, I don't keep a bathing suit near or on me at all times, so I need to go home first."

"Yea, me too. Meet me at my house in half an hour." Wallace said walking away,

Veronica gave a nod and walked to her car. She got home, packed up what she needed and headed off to get Wallace.

BEACH

"Logan, man, that was such an awesome wave! Dude, I'm so psyched we came to the beach. Hot chicks, dope waves, and beer." Dick said.

"Yea, thanks for the invite guys. I've been wanting to hit the waves." Logan replied.

"No problemo man. I've been looking for someone besides for the Beav here to head out with so it's cool. Enbom, Casey and all of them can't surf for shit. Seriously, you'd be surprised—they're the kind of guys that head out when it's like—I don't even know dude." Dick said.

Logan was sitting on his board staring our into the ocean when e suddenly said, "Hey Dick, what can you actually tell me about Veronica Mars? I mean, I saw you sitting there pretty quietly at lunch today."

Dick shrugged, and said, "I don't know man. We used to be kinda close. I mean, not like that—we didn't really hang out or anything, but she was sort of hard not to notice back then. Why do you want to know?"

"She just, I don't know. There's just something about her. Yes, I'm aware that sounds seriously corny, but it's just the way it is man. What really happened between her and Lilly?" Logan asked.

"No way. That is so not for me to get in the middle of, dude. All I can say is that Lilly got seriously pissed off at Veronica, and shunned her. I don't even hate her, but what Lilly Kane wants, Lilly Kane gets, right?"

"If you say so, but she's been all over me, and she's crazy if she thinks she's hittin' this." Logan said and Dick bursts out laughing while Beaver blushes. "She's just one of those girls that fucks you for your father, you know? I bet you all she really cares about is if his dick is big, his bank account and his status—or maybe just his dick."

"Yea, man I totally get that. I think Madison's the same way, and all the other girls in our circle or whatever." Dick said.

"Hey, these waves are kind of lacking. You wanna head down the beach and see if those are any better?" Logan asked.

"Yea, cool." Dick said.

DOWN THE BEACH

Veronica settled her towel down and began to shed her short jean shorts and blue 'rock and roll' tee. Her bathing suit was a red string bikini and her hair was pulled into pigtails. Wallace whistled and laughed, and Veronica responded by punching him in the shoulder.

"Let's go head into the water." Wallace proposed.

"Um, let me think about that—hell no." Veronica said.

"Hey, you promised." Wallace reminded her.

"I did not. I said that I'd go to the beach with you. No water was mentioned in our conversation. I'm going to lay out here and get a nice tan and read my book for English class." Veronica responded.

"Not if I pick you up and throw you in." Wallace said with an mischievous face.

"No way. Wallace…let's talk about this." Veronica said backing away.

"Too late for compromises and reason, Mars. You're going down!" Wallace said as he lunged for her.

FURTHER UP THE BEACH

"So are you going for Mars?" Dick asked curiously.

"I don't know. I just met her, but like I said—I just can't stop thinking about her." Logan replied. "I want to get to know her and I'm sure as hell not going to let some spoiled brat tell me what to do."

Yea, Lilly can be a bit much sometimes. Duncan and Veronica used to go out, you know?" Dick said.

"Yea. What happened with that?" Logan asked.

"I don't know man, they were like two little love sick puppies. No seriously, I see your face…but Veronica was actually really innocent and naïve and all of that awhile back. Only recently, after the big fallout, she's changed. Her and Duncan were like the perfect couple, you know, holding hands, little kisses, and love poems." Dick said with a little laugh, "the thing is though, that Lilly literally controlled their relationship. I know that sounds weird, but I'm dead serious. I constantly overheard Lilly talking to Duncan about Veronica and I'm guessing Veronica got her ear chewed off by Lilly when they spent time together. Then, out of nowhere, Duncan drops her without a word to anyone. She didn't even know they broke up until she finally got the hint when he kept ignoring her. No reasons, no apology, no big breakup, nothing. Freaky shit, man. Then, a few weeks later, the fight happened so that was pretty much the end." Dick finished.

"Fuck, even I wouldn't be that cold." Logan said.

"If you want a tip as to how to get Veronica, you have to be the ideal boyfriend, you know? Veronica, she's something special you know? She's like my sister in a way, because when Duncan was being an asshole, I was always the one to have to take her home from parties and all of that shit. Duncan was no saint, but Lilly sort of convinced Veronica that he was her 'prince charming.' Veronica only deserves the best. When you get to know her, you'll see that man." Dick said.

"Wow Dick, I never would've thought you were capable of being a real human being. No offense." Logan said with a smirk. "I thought you'd be the one getting tanked at parties and carried off to your room."

"Yea, well…I've learned a few things being an 09er all these years, which is basically that I wish I wasn't an 09er all of those years." Dick said with a laugh, "Oh, don't get me wrong, dude. I love going to TJ and getting fucked and fucked up as much as the next guy, but there is a lesser seen, anti-dick, to Dick."

"Ahh, and he spills his dirty secret." Logan said laughing.

"Ha Ha." Dick said.

"But just, remember what I said, okay?"

"Yea man—" Logan said.

Veronica jumped back quickly and took off running. Wallace ran after her, trying to catch up, but for someone with such short legs, she was fast.

"Get back here, Mars!" Wallace screamed after her.

"No way, Fennel! Fight or flight, means the petite blonde, which is me by the way, takes off!" Veronica screamed back at him with her head turned around.

By the time Veronica turned her head back around to see where she was going, she ran into a very hard chest, which flew back onto the sand. She looked down and saw none other than a very wet, very hot Logan Echolls. Wait—did she actually just say 'very hot Logan Echolls?' She must've hit her head, she thought.

Logan looked at the blue eyes staring down at him, smirked, and said, "Well hello to you too. Girls don't usually throw themselves into my body as a way of greeting, but hey, I'm pretty open to new things. That hurt, by the way"

Veronica rolled her eyes and said, "Yea, I'm sure my 99lb. body really caused you so much pain. What are you doing here?"

Logan was now very aware of her red string bikini and the hair that was currently starting to fall out of her pigtails and sweeping on his neck and shoulders. He shifted a little bit uncomforatably at the pressure of her body. This seemed to remind Veronica that she was laying on top of Logan Echolls at a very public beach, with witnesses, so she began to get off of him.

Logan got up after Veronica stood, looked awkwardly at her, and replied, "Surfing with Dick and Beav. Why are you here?"

Veronica huffed and said, "Wallace forced me here, he was chasing me around because he was going to throw me in the water."

Logan had a glint in his eyes, and before Veronica processed what was happening, she was being thrown over Logan's shoulder and he took off running towards the water.

"Logan! Loooogan! Put me doooown!" She said exasperated.

Logan just chuckled as she felt the cold water flicking up and hitting her legs when he ran through the shoreline and entered the shallow part of the ocean. They reached to where Logan was about knee deep, and Logan threw her in.

She came up, sputtering with a scowl on her face. Logan thought she was the prettiest sight he'd ever seen. Veronica's pigtails were now almost completely out, he bangs were pasted to her forehead and face, her body gleaming with water, and the hint of a playful spark in her eyes.

"You are so going to pay for that, Logan!" Veronica exclaimed.

"Uh-huh. I'd like to see you try. I have a foot on you short-stop, and I'm almost two times your weight. How exactly are you going to get me?" Logan asked with a smirk.

"You'll see…" Veronica said mischievously.

Logan just laughed, and that's all she needed to jump into his arms and make him go topping down. His head was underwater while she sat on his chest triumphantly.

"Low blow, Ronnie. So below the belt." Logan said as he managed to get his head above water, which meant him sliding Veronica down to his lap.

"Below the belt? I don't know what you're talking about." Veronica said innocently and with a giggle.

"Veronica Mars. What am I going to do with you?" Logan said shaking his head.

"Hmm. I dunno, dissecting frogs, making exploding volcano mountains…the usual." Veronica replied.

"There is nothing usual about you Ronnie," Logan smiled said, "And that's what I like about you."

"You like me? You really like me?" Veronica said.

Wait a minute. Did Logan Echolls just say he liked me? He's known me for a day, and he's already decided that he liked me. Well, that's just fantastic. Fan-fuking-tastic. No really. I think I actually might like him too. He can probably being an obligatory psychotic jackass at times, and to certain people, but so far he's actually…nice, and sweet, and funny. Oh my God. I'm falling for Logan Echolls.

Veronica got up and waited for Logan to get up also.

Logan smiled at Veronica and she said, "Hey, I'm kinda hungry from running around and everything. Want to go Luigi's? They have the best manicotti. EVER."

"Sounds great." Logan said with an even bigger smile.
