Chapter Two
Sparkles and Surf Boards
Disclaimer: I do not own Veronica Mars, Rob Thomas does, and not the hot singer from Matchbox 20
Veronica woke up around 8. She took a shower and made some coffee. She sits down and reads the newspaper and sips her coffee. Logan comes in after his surf; he takes a 15 minute shower and spends about 45 minutes blow drying and perfectly sculpting his hair. He walks over to the coffee pot and empties it, making Veronica very angry
"Dude, have you ever heard of some common courtesy, if you finish the pot, then you are the one who has the make another pot! Did they ever teach you that over in the 90909?" says Veronica with an annoyed look in her eye
"Nope, we had people to do it for us, so go right ahead make another pot" said Logan, obviously joking
Veronica's eyes grew wide as she walks over to the sink and pulls out the water sprayer. She holds it right at Logan as she says "Take that back right or I go straight for the hair!"
Logan's smirk is wiped away in exchange for one of sheer terror "You would not go for the hair, even you are not that cruel"
"Wanna bet" Veronica said with a smirk that she was desperately trying to hide
"Please Please Please don't! Dicks coming over soon and it would take me too long to fix!" pleaded Logan
"Fine, then tell me what Dick's getting Mac" said Veronica as she tightens her grip on the water sprayer
"Nope not gonna happen, How about I make another pot of coffee" says Logan as he slowly walks toward Veronica
"Okay I guess, because there is no way you're going to get me to tell you what Mac's getting Dick" said Veronica as she turns to face the sink as Logan walks over with the coffee pot
"Whatever" said Logan
Just as he begins to turn the knob on Veronica sprays him right in the crotch and runs toward the door
"Get back here right now munchkin!" Yelled Logan
"Sorry, I gotta go pick up Mac! Love You!" shouted Veronica as she grabs her keys and runs out the door
"Love you too!" Logan says as the door shuts
Logan comes out of the bedroom with fresh pants on as Dick comes in the door with his hand over his eyes "Can I open my eyes or are you two going at it again?"
"Dick, she's not here she went out with Mac" said Logan "and if you would bother to knock on the door you wouldn't have to do that!"
"Alright man take a chill pill" said Dick
"So are you still going to propose?" asks Logan
"Hell yeah! You think you're the only one around here who can get hitched" Said Dick without a care in the world
"You know this means that you are always going to be with Mac, no more one night stands with blondes, or random hookups with hookers you meet in TJ. You are going to be with Mac all of the time. Are you sure your ready for that?" questions Logan
"Yeah man, I love Mackie and I wanna be with her forever. I had my fill of blondes and hookers, Mackie's neither. Thank God. Ive never been so serious in my life. So are we going or not?" Says Dick
"Yeah, lets go, Tiffany's?" asks Logan dumbfounded at how wise his usually dumb best friend is sounding
"Yup, Mac's favorite colors blue, so Tiffany's is perfect" say Dick
Veronica knocks on Mac's door. Mac answers and Veronica says "Know that's how you knock on a door to make sure you don't walk in on anything"
"Sorry again, come on in" says Mac
" I was just teasing" says Veronica
"Wants some coffee?" Asks Mac
"Sure, Logan drank all of mine!" says Veronica
"And you let him live?" asks Mac as she hands Veronica her coffee mug
"Nope I threatened to spray his hair with that sink sprayer thing" said Veronica as she drinks her coffee
"Pre or post gel?" asks Mac with a smile
"Post" said Veronica
"You didn't, he and Dick were going out today, there is no way his hair would be done in time, and Dick is very impatient" said Mac
"Nope, I just got his crotch, he had to change his pants" said Veronica
"Ready to go Mac Attack?" asks Veronica as she finishes her coffee
"Yup lets go" says Mac
Logan and Dick walk into Tiffany's "Hi Jennifer" says Logan to the sales woman behind the counter
"Nice to see you again Logan, what can I do for you and you rather attractive friend" says Jennifer as she eyes Dick
"I told you man!" says Dick
"Well, Dick here is looking for an engagement ring and I was wondering if you guys did engraving?"
" Well, lets look at the engagement rings first " says Jennifer as she moves over to the larger case
"Okay, ill just wander around for a while" says Logan
" Do you want white or yellow gold, or would you rather go the silver route?" Jennifer asks Dick
"I think white gold" says Dick, very sure of himself
"Okay then" Jennifer points to the white gold section of rings "Tell me about your girlfriend, maybe I can pick some choices"
"Well her name is Mac, well that's her nickname, her real name is Cindy" says Dick "She is amazing, she has long dark brown hair. She is a wiz with computers, Im pretty sure that she could hack into the IRS and delete all of your debt if she wanted to. She is so funny, she makes me laugh. She is so patient with me, im not the smartest guy, she makes me feel like a freaking genius. I love her so much"
"Well she sounds like quite the woman" Jennifer rummages around a while and comes back with three rings "It sounded like she would like something simple, do you like any of these?"
Dick immediately picks up one that has one large princess cut diamond in the center and two smaller ones on the side "This is the one, its perfect for Mackie, Ill take it!"
"Okay" says Jennifer "Martha here will take care of ringing you up, so Logan what can I help you with"
"Well, as you already know I asked her to marry me and she said yes, but I wanted to get her something more" said Logan " I saw this heart pendant, and I was wondering if you could engrave something in it for me "
"Sure what do you want it to say?" asks Jennifer
"Just Love with the l and v capitalized" says Logan
"May I ask why?" asks Jennifer
"My name is Logan, obviously but her name is Veronica if you put the first two letters of each together you get love" explains Logan
"That is extremely thoughtful, it will be ready next week" says Jennifer
"Thanks see you then, you ready Dick?" asks Logan
"Yup" says Dick
Mac and Veronica walk into the lingerie store called Wild Innocence
"Wild Innocence? Really V?" questions Mac
"Yeah, it's the best place, trust me, remember Wendy, Max's hooker, well she introduced me to this place, it rocks" explains Veronica
"Whatever you say" says Mac
After rummaging around for a while Mac finds one thing to try on, a knee length nightie and Veronica has an arm full
"Are you going to try all of that on?" asks Mac
"No, half is for you, I knew you would take any risks" says Veronica
"You know me too well" says Mac
After trying everything on Mac settles for a lacy blue number with garters. Veronica gets some red lacy thing and a zebra print set. They head off for greasy and delicious crab cakes at the Crab Shack
"Ready to go Mac Attack?" asks Veronica
"Can we go buy the surf board shop first?" asks Mac with a grin on her face
"Sure thing" says Veronica
The go over to Surf Crazy, the boys' favorite surf shop. Mac goes is and leaves Veronica in the car, she comes out with a blue surf board and sticks it in Veronica's backseat
"Whats that for I thought you said no surf stuff?" asks Veronica
"I have a plan. Im going to put the surf board on the kitchen table and lay on it with my lingerie and surprise him, what do you think?" questions Mac
"That's a great idea! Good luck, let me know how it goes" says Veronica as she drops Mac off at her and Dicks apartment
Logan is already at home watching a basketball game when Veronica comes in with a bag from Wild Innocence, he jumped up and smiled
"Hello darling, what have you got there?" asks Logan as he eyes the bag
"Oh this, this is nothing its just tampons, they had a sale, that place is amazing it has everything a girl could need" said Veronica
Logans face turned red as he turned around and went back to his basketball game "That's good" he says
Veronica laughs to herself and puts the bag in her dresser "So where did you and Dick go today?" she asks
"Still not telling" Logan says "So whats for dinner?"
"How about we go out, Im beat" she says
"Luigis?" asked Logan
"How'd ya know? We can take Big Bird, I don't feel like driving" say Veronica
"Ronnie, I told you the Xterra doesn't like being called that" says an annoyed Logan
Mac's display is all set up when Dick walks into the apartment
"Whoa" is all he could say
"You like?" asks Mac
All Dick could do was nod his head
Mac dragged him into the bedroom and had her way with him
"Happy anniversary Mackie" says Dick
"Happy Anniversary Richard" says Mac lovingly
"You know its still early, its only 8 you wanna go out for dinner, im starved for some reason" say Dick
"Sure, you wanna help me shower?" asks Mac
"Uh huh" says Dick as he and Mac walk towards the bathroom
About 20 minutes later the two walk out of the apartment and drive off towards Luigi's
Who do they see once they arrive there? Logan and Veronica who are just getting their bread basket.
"Can we join you guys" asks Mac as she walks up to the pair
"Sure Mac Attack" says Veronica
They all chat and eat Veronica ends up eating half of Logan's and Mac's meals as well as her own
"Whos ready for desert?" asks Veronica
"How can you eat more?" asks Logan with a shocked expression
"I don't know I just do" says Veronica
"I have an announcement" says Dick as he stands up. He digs out the blue box as he gets down on one knee "Cindy Renee MacKenzie, will you marry me?"
Mac's face was blank "Umm.. I need to go" she says as she jumps up from the table
"Mackie?" Dick looks at her run off with tears running down his face
"Ill go after her we'll take your car, can I have your keys Dick, you can go to our apartment with Logan. Itll be ok" says Veronica as she runs after Mac
