I did this without a beta because I was busy and totally forgot to ask someone so all mistakes are my fault! Enjoy! : )
Mac POV
I look Veronica sitting in the lunch hall starring and poking at her questionable food, and I can not even describe it. I mean sure, I have seen her after countless breakups that dealt with Logan drama, but this is SO much more. Usually she mopes for a day, then puts on a tough face, and goes and finds the next cheating bastard. This has been a week like this. She looks like she wants to pass out, but I know the real reason why she is forcing herself to stay awake. I would to if I had to see Madison in all her plastic surgery glory. What is killing her is that she has to see her riding Logan’s body. The love of her life having sex with the one who ruined her innocence; that can make a person go crazy.
I walk over to her table slowly, waiting to see what Veronica will do. Will she try to run away again like the last time I tried to confront her, or will she break down like the first time she came after the break up. It is hard to judge what kind of move Veronica will make now a day.
“Hey Veronica,” I say timidly.
“Hey Mac-attack!” She says with an odd smile on her face.
Oh, well this is a new reaction. She looks surprisingly happy. This could possibly be the worse reaction I have seen yet. If she is acting happy now, maybe she is in denial? I do not know how to handle a crazy happy (but not really happy) Veronica. If she cries, I comfort her. She avoids the problem by picking apart a case; I let her have complete open access to my gadgets, and my gadget skills. What do I do with a ‘happy’ Veronica? Should I be happy with her? Or do I desperately try to get pass her walls, and she how she is really feeling? I think by best bet as of now is just to go along with her happy act. No need to make a scene in front of the lunch hall.
“So how are you Veronica?” I take a bite of my golden delicious apple waiting for her to respond.
“Oh well ya’ know, as good as can be expected,” She says with a smile of her face, though the smile doe not quite make it to her eyes. Veronica’s eyes are like an open book when it comes to her feelings.
“You seen to be taking it quite well; I mean if I were in your shoes right now, I would probably be crying my eyes out,” She looks up from her ‘pasta’ as the food people like to call it, with a frown.
“Trust me, I have cried about it, but I can’t dwell on what happened. I mean it’s not like we were together at the time. He was allowed to fuck any slut he wanted to. Even if it was Madison, he was perfectly allowed to have her ride him, and I cannot do anything about it.” At least she sounds confident, but I know really know what I can possibly do with it. Her emotions are like that very catchy tune by Katy Perry, gosh what the hell is the name of it? Oh right ‘Hot N’ Cold’. Yup that describes Veronica now a day. Technically that probably describes her on a daily basis, but even more so than usual. There has got to be a way to make my friend stop feeling the pain.
Small talk is all that appears through lunch with things like how classes are, and why the school board can’t get better food for the students to eat. Logan and hers’ situation was never brought up again, but my mind is racing a million miles a minute trying to figure out what do to. I know that Veronica still loves Logan so much, but she can’t even speak about him without hurting.
Veronica and I finish our lunch, and say our goodbyes. I still have a good forty-five minutes to kill, and I plan to use it wisely. I finally get a brain blast! I know how Veronica is feeling, but I need to see how Logan is feeling. Before I start anything, I need to talk to Logan.
My Tech 101 class gets out, and I run over to my green Bug to race over to the Neptune Grand. I know he is still in there because I over heard Dick talking about it to his frat buddy. From what I got out of the conversation (though it was so hard to understand because Dick is a moron), is that Veronica ripped off Logan’s balls so hard this time, that he can’t even leave his room, and he smells like ass.
I walk up to the reception desk, where a ditsy girl name Tina was going on about Ashton Kutcher’s body part over the phone with someone. I guess they hired just about anyone these days.
“Excuse me,” I say to Tina. She looks up from her magazine, and tells whoever the hell she was one the phone with that she will call them back.
“Hi welcome to the Neptune Grand, my name is Tina. What can I help you with?” She asks. At least she did not sound that stupid.
“I was wondering if you can give me the room number to Logan Echolls room? I need to give him some personal items,” I lie smoothly.
“Oh, yeah sure one moment please.” She turns to her computer, and searches his room number.
“Mr. Echolls is in the penthouse. Will that be all?”
“Yes, thank you very much…Tina”
“You are very welcome.”
I walk over to the elevator casually, and press the elevator button. It rings to open, and I walk in and press the penthouse button. The bell rings, and I slowly get off and walk to the front of Logan’s door. I hesitate on knocking the door. I have not really talked to Logan except the occasional ‘hello’ whenever he was with Veronica.
I knock the door, and step back from the door, waiting for Logan to answer it. I can hear him stumble God knows what. He opens it slowly, and stands there with an annoyed look on his face.
“Hey…” I could tell he can’t remember my name, probably all the alcohol he has had throughout the last couple of weeks. He reeks of some sort expensive scotch.
“Mac, my name is Mac. I’m Veronica’s nerdy friend.”
“Oh, yeah now I remember. Now what could you possibly want. If you’re here for clothes to burn at the “Logan hate club” you are out of luck. I already gave it to some red head about a couple of hours ago. Or, wait that might have been the maid; I don’t know she was yelling some sort of Mexican shit at me. Anyways what do you want, I have lots of self-wallowing to day. I’m on a very strict schedule.” Oh great a sarcastic Logan. This is going to be fun.
“Actually, I want to know if I could come in and talk to you. Don’t worry; I’m now here to bash you or anything. I just need your help with something, and in return I think it will help you too.” He opens the door wide enough for me to walk threw.
The place is trash with room service trays, and bottles of beer everywhere. I couldn’t over look the fact that he smelt like ass as well. I find a clear space on the white leather couch, and plant my ass on it.
“So Logan, how have you been?”
“Well as you can see from my redecorating of this place, pretty shitty.” He snarls at me.
“Mac, lets get to the point of this conversation. Why are you here?” He asks me.
“It’s Veronica, she is really hurting Logan.”
“Yeah and I’m NOT?!! She broke up with me, not the other way around. Yeah I know that I slept with her worst enemy on one drunken night in Aspen, but did not mean to hurt her!” He yells at me.
“Yeah well YOU DID! This is bad Logan; I have never seen her like this. She doesn’t sleep anymore. She can’t because all she sees is you and Madison.”
I see him soften, and he dumps his body on the floor.
“I didn’t mean to hurt her. I just made a mistake. I know it was wrong,” he whispers. I walk over to him; he looks like he was about to cry. I hesitate when I put my arms around him. He leans in to me, and I can feel the warm tears stain my shirt.
“I love her so much Mac. I just want to be with her again. I hate myself so much for making her cry. You should have seen her face when we had the fight. She looked so broken, and small. I wish I could have comforted her.” I rub his back assuring him that is was ok.
I finally had, and idea to make both of them happy.
“Logan, what if I help you win Veronica back?”
“No it will never work. She hates me. She told me before she left that what I did was something that she was never getting past.” I know what he is saying, but the way Veronica has been acting, I don’t think that she really meant it.
“Logan, trust me I know she is hurt right now, but I see it in her eyes that she still loves you, just as much as you love her. It is going to take a lot of work, but I know that it will work, trust me.” Logan looks at me, and smiles. I take that as a yes that he is in for the challenge.
“Ok lover boy, lets get you cleaned up because you smell like ass,” I laugh, and smiles. We stand up, and he goes in to his bedroom to shower, while I get a trash bag and start cleaning up the place.
Over the next couple of hours, we think up a plan, operation: VM SECRET LOVER. Logan was going to be sending her different objects, obviously showing his feelings for her. I was going to ‘help’ her solve to find out who did it. Well I was going to lead her in the wrong direction of course. All I know is that Veronica Mars is going to get very frustrated, and fall madly in love with someone she already loves.
