"So then we're back at one of those moments where I fail to see how you can find fun and enjoyment in torturing your best friend, are we?" I asked ( ... )

"Wow," I started, lingering on the word for a moment. "I love how you can excuse Lilly for everything that she does to Duncan and yet I'm the one torturing him, Veronica. It's teasing. God, and Duncan doesn't take it personally, so why should you?"

I cared for Duncan. God, I probably wouldn't be anywhere without him as my best friend. So, the random teasing that we did back and forth was suddenly a problem with his girlfriend? Yeah, excuse me. I'm so sorry. Did that offend you?

I knew logically that Veronica wanted him just as happy as I wanted him, or even Lilly did when she thought she knew what he needed. Anything Lilly did was because she wanted to help Duncan and not hurt him. Maybe none of us really knew what was best for Duncan. Maybe he was just supposed to figure that out on his own or something.

"He's my best friend, Veronica. Can you just remember that?" I asked, my voice a little harder than before.

"Siblings are supposed to pick on each other, Logan. Not like Dick and Cassidy, or you and Trina are all that different in the way you treat each other." I pointed out. "I'm not trying to seem like I take it personally. I know most of the time you're just teasing. It's just not always that obvious to people who aren't you." I tried to explain. There were moments, especially when they both got in on Duncan about how he could use some more excitement, that it started to seem like more than teasing ( ... )

"Or maybe, you're being just a little too sensitive. Duncan's a big boy, he can fend for himself instead of you doing it for him. If he was really that bothered then he would have said so."

I was sick of being the enemy that Veronica Mars chose to make me any time something went array. I wasn't the bad guy of the plot. I wasn't innocent, no, but I wasn't a total bastard and I was sick of being treated like I was one.

"It's different - you getting on Lilly's case versus you getting on mine, Veronica. You actually like Lilly for once and you can't stand me half of the time for another. I'm not asking for anything from you except for maybe a two second break from you blaming me. I'm not responsible for all these little things that you so like to pin on me." I scoffed towards her, "I'm sick of it, okay?"

"I'm his friend and you just love to point out how much better I could possibly be."

"Maybe I am. It's not like I can hop in a time machine and change it, is it?" I rolled my eyes. "As far as Duncan actually saying anything, how often does he actually speak up when he should?" I questioned.

"I can't stand you have the time because you're constantly an ass to me, you make it just as clear, and always have, that you have absolutely no use for me." I reminded him, clenching my fists for a moment. Part of me felt like jumping out of the moving car just so I wasn't stuck fighting with Logan with no escape. Being trapped was not something I ever handled well.

"You don't think I'm just as sick of all the insults you sling my way? All the times you try to make me feel like there's something wrong with me because I don't want to party all the time, and I don't want my parents to lose their trust in me over whatever scheme you and Lilly have come up with to 'liven up' my life?" I snapped. We were equally guilty in this mess and there was no way I was letting him dump it all on me ( ... )

"How can he possibly do it for himself when you always do the honors for him?" I asked bitterly.

"I mean, do you positively know that every single thing I do bothers him? Have you even met the males of our species to know how guys communicate. We're not like girls. We don't discuss our feelings - not like that - but I would know if Duncan truly had a problem with anything I was doing."

See, now we were getting to the real thick middle of the problem. Yeah, blame me, Veronica.

"I don't have any use for you. The only reason that we possibly ever hang out is because of Duncan and Lilly. I was only trying to be nice when I picked you up today. That's all, but obviously I did it just because I wanted to sling more insults your way. Maybe make fun of your hair or the fact that maybe I do think that you need to liven up a bit ( ... )

"Whatever you say, Logan." I sighed, "I'll bite my tonge and keep my mouth shut next time it involves Duncan. Will that get you to shut up"God, don't you think I know that? Do you think I would even talk to you if it weren't for them? Honestly?" I shook my head. He was doing it again. Making it sound like everything I wanted for myself was something to be ashamed of. It wasn't. There wasn't something wrong with it ( ... )

logan_echolls November 24 2005, 17:39:25 UTC

"Well, see, that might be a nice start," I replied, my voice hard. My patience quickly wore when it came to this certain sheriff's daughter. There were times that I though that I wouldn't want anything more but Veronica's disappearance (excluding the fact that both Lilly and Duncan would take that as a loss ( ... )

I don't even bother trying to keep myself from glaring at him when he sort of smiles. The decent but snarky exchange from earlier seems like another lifetime right now. I didn't want to be in the same town as Logan Echolls right now, never mind in his car. I should have turned down the ride. Of course that would have started a fight right then and there, so was that any better ( ... )

logan_echolls November 24 2005, 21:13:31 UTC

I almost comment as she slams the passenger door closed after getting out of the car, but it seems pretty useless at this point to focus on such a minor detail. I keep my mouth shut even though everything I want to do is hurt Veronica right now. There was a reason I'd pick fun at her sometimes. I mean, this animosity wasn't just Duncan or even Lilly. Veronica knew just as much that she pressed buttons. I was sure she did ( ... )

"When did I say I hated you?" I questioned. "I said you're an ass to me most of the time, but that's not the same thing. Annoying the hell out of me doesn't automatically translate into me hating you last I checked." I said, completely frustrated by this entire conversation. "You're Duncan's best friend, Lilly loves you. You're part of the package. And you have moments where I actually understand why that is. So, no, as pissed off at you as I get, I don't hate you ( ... )

logan_echolls November 24 2005, 22:16:55 UTC

"That's just it. You don't ever stop reminding me what a horrible person I am," I snapped towards her. "All my energies are spent against you, Duncan and most of the student body or something. No, Logan isn't at all decent. Not ever. How am I really supposed to ever know that you don't hate my guts when all you ever tell me is that I don't even care. Not caring would result in me not even bothering when it came to you or, hell, even Duncan and Lilly."

"All I want is one single day when you don't associate the words Logan Echolls and Bad Guy together ( ... )
