One of you asked how I did to update that often. Well, it's quiet simple. I've got all those ideas in my head for this story, and once I start to write, I just do it, without thinking. So, I usually write one chapter a half each day… Sometimes even two. But, that's doesn't seem much to me.
Logan dropped me of at school, after a few hours of let's just say, sport… He dropped me off not far from the building I had class in, and went to his own. I did my best to focus on what the teacher actually was saying. I took notes, and was thinking about what I was about to do next. I have to admit I was kind of relieved when the class finally came to his end. Lucie would be joining me in 30 minutes.
"Veronica? Can I talk to you for a minute…" The teacher said when I was about to leave the classroom. I walked towards the front of the class.
"Yes, Miss Clarion?" I hope she does not want to talk to me too long. Because I still have to finish this job.
"I've noticed some changed around you lately. And you seem less focused than usual." Me? Less focused? I've never been that focuses in my courses before! Maybe not today, but still..!
"I had something on my mind today." And that something being Logan, shirtless, kissing me, whispering sexy or nice words in my ear…
"Okay… Is that everything Miss Clarion? Because I actually have somewhere to go."
"Actually, that's not what I wanted to talk to you…" Okay, so what is it then…? "I think some of the students of this class are cheating. Nobody can go from an F to an A in just one week…" Sure, that's seems a good reason to think someone's cheating. And that someone can't be me.
"Okay…" Where is this leading to?
"I heard you were some kind of detective?" Some kind of? I am a detective!
"I am a detective…" Not working as it full time, but I do some jobs here and there.
"I thought maybe you could help me find out how she was cheating... So I can prove it and kick her out of my class." Who? Who does she thinks is cheating?
"Sure, I think I can make some free time for that. Who do you think is cheating?" If I don't have a name, it's going to be a lot harder to just prove it. But, I think she or he isn't going to be the only one to cheat.
"Madisson Sinclair…" No way!? Great, like if I wanted to be any near her. "Do you know her?" Yes, and I would have wish I didn't.
"Yes, I know her. We used to go to the same school." And we still do. "
"Well, that's going to make it easier…" Not at all.
"Sure. I'll do my best and I'll do some digging. But it can take some time. Can I go now?" I really have to go.
"Sure thank you veronica." And one job I won't be paid for… I walked outside the class and started my plan.
"Are you ready? This is going to be great." I ask to Lucie. We were waiting in the library, since I had a shift and because my plan was going about bringing Ty here. I had putted all his messages, with just some modification, around him, in his bag, on his bench, car, send some to his phone, computer and all the way to the library, where he was about to come.
"I sure am. That bastard will finally know what he's been doing to me. "Lucie was a strong woman. Even bullied, she hadn't let her mood or anything get down.
"Let the show begin…" I say as I see Ty approaching. Lucie immediately walked father away from me.
"Hey you! What's the meaning of all this?" Ty said approaching me. Not funny when it happens to you right?
"Good evening, how can I help you?" I say like I had done a thousand times before.
"What the hell is all this?" he say handing me a punch a papers. That? That's just a cookie of your own dough…
"You know what that is…" I say putting away some books. "Common Ty! Think… You've seen that already. In fact, you wrote it!" I tell him. That's Lucie's signal.
"Yes Ty, think…" Lucie said right behind Ty… "I remember you! You asked me out once…" Well, now we know why he did it…
"Yeah, and you stood me up at the restaurant!" Ty said angrily.
"My grandma had to go to the hospital! I excused myself afterwards and offered to go out another day, and that I would pay! But you never answered…" That bastard…
"Sorry to interrupt these words of love, but I need to say a word to Ty, before anyone decides to slap the other…" I say not wanting to hear anything more about why and what happened exactly. "If you ever feel like bullying anyone, ever again, let's just say, you're going to have a really bad time. Believe me. Ever heard about a promise from a Mars?" I only make promises I know I can keep.
"Mars? Like in Veronica Mars?" My reputation is building up I see…
"She sure is, I only work with the best, and you are certainly not the best…" Lucie said waving with her finger…
"Fine, I'll leave her alone… Happy?" I sure am. Both Lucie and I nod, and Ty leaves.
"Thank you Veronica! Oh, I can't believe it was that bastard… I'm not planning on dating any guy soon…" Maybe that's not the best thing to do."
"Just make sure that the next one is a good one…" I tell her. She hands me over an envelope with the cash for the job.
"Maybe, I guess I'll see…"
"Veronica Mars people!" Wallace said as he entered the library. My shift was almost done and we were going to go watch a basketball game, and Logan would join us. I still had to talk to Parker, but she was nowhere to be found.
"Isn't that Fennell? Wallace Fennell…" I say imitating James Bond… "The library is about to close people!" I say so the few students presents can pick their stuff and leave.
"I called at your apartment last night, you didn't answer…"Oh, I hadn't tell him…
"Yes, someone throw a brick into my window, and you hadn't answered when I called you … So I called Logan…" He was surprised, but who wouldn't be…
"You, called Logan?" He asked not believing his own ears. Yes I did, and afterwards, we did much more than just talk…
"Yeah, I figured that was the thing to do…"
"Oh, by the way… A girl?" Yes, a little girl. I had sent that message to everyone who was dying to know…
"Yes, you really jump between two conversations do you…" I wasn't done talking yet…
"Sure, you better take good care of her, because if you don't, her uncle is going to be really angry against you…" Her uncle? Well, it's on the good way. My dad is dating Alicia again, and I'm pretty sure he's thinking about buying her a ring… If it isn't done yet.
"Do you want to hear the rest of the story or do you rather talk about things that haven't happened yet." I tell him. A girl comes near the counter with a book. I checked him out so she could leave.
"Sure, talk woman."
"He offered me to stay at his apartment till my dad comes back home…" That's not all there is to tell.
"Well, he did well. I would offer you to stay in my dorm room, but with Piz… Not sure that's a good idea…" I'm one hundred percent sure it's not a good idea.
"Yeah, well now he has all those crazy idea's about raising the baby there together, and trying to be a couple and make things work out…" I say, even I kind of agree with it, I want to see how Wallace is going to take it.
"Maybe that's not such a bad idea…" He reacts better than I did when he asked me.
"Really? It's not like if we broke up several times before…"
"Yeah, but now you'll make it work out. You have a good reason to make it work this time…" I guess that's going to be everyone's opinion..
"Keep that in mind, because he's coming to the game with us…" I said, just in time because my new – old boyfriend walked in the library, along with Dick and Mac. Still no Parker.
"And I thought we would spend some time together. Well, why not, the more the merrier hé."
"That was awesome! Have you seen that last shot?" Wallace said after the game.
"I don't really get basketball. It's just a punch of boys running after a ball…" Mac said. It's a good thing that Wallace didn't hear her.
"Don't say that in front of him…" I whisper in her ear. Logan had been a good boy during the evening. He hadn't tried to take my hand, kiss me, nor does anything that could make anyone think we were a couple. Not even Wallace, I hadn't told him I was in fact back with Logan.
"Yeah, the game was not that bad. I've seen better…" Dick said, manifesting himself. All the games where Wallace plays in are better, but he gave up basketball for engineering, so we wouldn't see him play for a while.
"Anyone care to go get a drink?" Wallace proposed. I would die for a drink, but not going to happen…
"I'm in!" I say, forgetting that my ride had to agree in it before. Well, I guess he'll just have to.
"Excellent idea…" Mac said and as well Dick and Logan found it a good idea.
"Maybe we could ask Parker to join us?" I really needed to talk to her. One glimpse from Logan told me he knew why I wanted her to come. I'm wonder what he was thinking about seeing Parker again, and I felt bad for being with him… It's going to take me a while before I stop thinking about both of them.
"You sure you want to see his ex-girlfriend? The one he cheated on, with you?" Dick said being a real, well, being a dick.
"Really Dick?" Logan said as he stopped walking.
"Fine, I haven't said anything. Sure called the other blond one, but it's going to be four girls against tree boys…" Four girls?
"I think you need to take math classes… Because you surely can't count…" I told him.
"Yeah right, Parker, Mac, you and the one inside you, makes four of them…" So he knows? Well, I haven't texted him about that, I do not even have him in my cellphone. "What? Is it a secret? I'm not allowed to know what my best friend is going to have to raise?" I guess he's allowed to know.
"I told him… He wanted to know." Logan said looking at me. Please Parker, I hope you're going to come, fast…
"You can tell anyone you want.." Maybe I shouldn't have said that? Well, in about 5 months, it's not going to be a secret for anyone anymore so
"Parker is coming." Mac said. She probably had texted her while we were speaking.
"So, are we getting that drink or not?" Wallace asked. And we all left for a bar.
"I think I should hit on that guy…" Parker said when the boys left to get ourselves drinks. She's talking about others guys, should make things easier right? Well, not that much.
"Parker, before you go and start your flirting trip. I would like to ask you something…" Mac, noticed it was important so she left, pretending to have to go the bathroom.
"Sure, you know you can tell me anything… Do you think he and I would make a cute couple?" She said pointing out a tall chocolate brown guy. Well, he was cute, and Parker could date anyone and would still look cute.
"It's about Logan…" She got serious. I would have rather want her to keep talking about that guy…
"I think you know him way better than me Veronica…" Know him better? Maybe, but I do know him longer than her.
"Yeah, I can't deny that… But I've known since high school…" That's so not important right now. I looked at the guys, they almost had everyone's drinks. When Logan says I was talking to Parker alone, he silently nodded at me. I hope he'll understand to take his time…
"So, what is it you wanted to talk about, about Logan?" She asks me.
"You're over him right?" Please say yes, please say yes, please say yes.
"Totally. He's all yours. You know what? You two should date again!" She said, but somehow, I wasn't sure she meant that.
"Date? With Logan?" I try, like if that wasn't what I was about to talk to her.
"Yeah, after all, you're having a baby together. And it's not like you didn't slept with him recently…" What? How does she knows about that? "You wouldn't be pregnant otherwise!" Oh, that's what she talks about.
"Well, he kind of asked if maybe we shouldn't try one again…" I started. She smiled, but I still got that weird feeling about it. " And I wanted to talk to you about it first."
"You should say yes, and talking about guys, they're coming back, and I'm going to go check on my chocolate colored God…" She said leaving toward her new crush.
I'm not sure if I'll be able to update tomorrow. I've to bake my mother's birthday cake, and it's the first cake I'm going to bake, but I'm quite good at making cupcakes…
Anyway, let me know what you think about this chapter…
