Title: For Now
Characters: Veronica Mars, Lilly Kane, Meg Manning
Word Count: 358
Rating: PG
Summary: When Lilly's around, things are never dull
Notes: I... Have no idea. It just happened, but I like it. Haven't seen 2x10 and want to stay unspoiled, keep out.

When Lilly's around, things are never dull. Lilly puts on some silver platform shoes after covering herself in blue and purple body glitter. She spins around, showing herself off to the stuffed animals and the posters scattered in her room. Meg laughs at Lilly as she moves with the girl, fixing her long blond hair up into a sloppy bun. Veronica watches from her spot on the bed and shakes her head, laughing. She knows that she's the next victim of the master plan. Meg pulls a sparkly gold gel pen from Lilly's desk and begins doodling stars and flowers up and down her friend's arms. After a few moments, Meg moves up to Lilly's face, drawing a large crescent moon on one of her cheeks.

Veronica climbs off of the bed and pours her bag of makeup out on Lilly's desk, watching in wonder as the other girls begin sorting through it, pulling the loudest and brightest colors from the mess. Lilly begins working on covering Veronica's face and arms with glitter while Meg curls her hair with the bright pink curler Shelley had given Lilly for her sweet sixteen. Lilly abandons her friends, turning up the volume on her stereo and picking through a spilled bag of Skittles, devouring only the green ones. She leans back against her bedroom wall at watches the scene in front of her.

Meg sits the curler down after unplugging it and takes Veronica's hands in her own, spinning the shorter girl around to the music. Everything going on seems to stop and its just the music and the dancing and suddenly Lilly is throwing red Skittles at them. Of course they retaliate and soon the room is filled with rainbow colors flying everywhere and teenage girls' laughter, and none of them want this moment to end.

Veronica knows it's going to though. Through all of this in the back of her mind is that nagging voice telling her that sooner or later she's going to wake up alone and Meg and Lilly will still be together, off doing whatever it is that dead girls do. For now, dreams would have to do.

Get out of Neptune.

Summary: He knew there was only one thing to do. Run. Get out of Neptune.
Notes: I don't do VM spoilers. This is just spec on what I think will happen. However, if you have not seen all the episodes aired in the US to date (up to 2x10) there is a HUGE spoiler for 2x10. If you have seen it, you're good.

January, 2006

"I can't believe I did that," Veronica said, groaning. "This has to be all different kinds of illegal." Duncan nodded in agreement as Logan leaned further over the back of the couch to get a better look.

"Veronica Mars, baby snatcher," Logan joked. Veronica and Duncan turned around and glared at him.

"What are you going to name her?" Veronica asked Duncan.

"I don't... I don't know. I never really thought about it," Duncan said.

"So she's just going to be 'The Manning/Kane Baby' forever?" Logan asked, reading the name off of the band around Duncan's daughter's arm.

"Not helping," Veronica muttered.

"Well then, I'm going to bed," Logan said, walking off to his room. Veronica checked her watch and cringed.

"You have to go?" Duncan asked Veronica, noticing the look on her face.

"It's really late.." Veronica said. "Or, early technically..."

"You should go," Duncan told her.

"I'll come over later," Veronica said.

----

"You seem distracted today," Mac commented as she and Veronica walked down the halls of Neptune High later that morning.

"I'm not distracted," Veronica lied. Mac nodded.

"Right, of course not. What's up?"

"Nothing," Veronica said, trying hard to sound more convincing. It wasn't like she was just going to pull Mac into the nearest empty room and tell her that last night she had kidnapped her boyfriend's daughter from the hospital to keep a promise to the child's dead mother and keep her away from her grandparents who were freaky as hell. Sure if she explained her case Mac would understand, she was cool like that, but it was safer for everyone if this secret stayed between Duncan, Logan and herself.

"Okay," Mac said. She still didn't believe Veronica, but she knew her friend well enough to know when to drop things. The girls walked down the hallways in silence, Veronica avoiding looking anywhere but the floor while her friend looked at her, concerned. Veronica knew that when she went back to the hotel after school, there was a good chance that life as she knew it would be completely changed. Because she knew when she went back that night, there was a good chance Duncan and his daughter would both be gone.

It was the only way that the kid would have a chance to grow up okay, if she wasn't in Neptune. Veronica knew what the Mannings had done to Grace, what they had probably done to Lizzie and Meg as well. She had made a promise to Meg, she wasn't about to break it.

----

Logan answered the door that afternoon.

"Too late?" Veronica asked him. Logan nodded, stepping aside to let her in.

"He just left. There's, uh, a note," Logan told her, pointing to a folded up sheet of paper resting on the coffee table. Veronica picked the paper up, carefully unfolding it.

"He named her," Veronica told Logan, looking up at him. Logan nodded again, the two sharing a small smile. "Megan Lillian Kane." Veronica supposed she should have expected it. Two people that Duncan had loved, both who had died too soon. It was a nice gesture.

"It doesn't say where he was going," Logan said.

"You read it?" Veronica asked, looking back down at the note.

"I was sitting next to him while he was writing it," Logan said. Veronica smirked a little.

"That explains the mustard stain."

"It does," Logan told her, walking over to the sofa and taking a seat on it. Veronica folded the note back up and put it in her pocket, taking a seat on the couch next to him.

"Now what?" she asked. Logan looked at her and shrugged.

"Good question."

Title: Adventures in Cooking
Fandom: Veronica Mars
Characters: Lilly Kane, Veronica Mars, Duncan Kane, Logan Echolls
Prompt: #56 - Breakfast
Word Count: 685
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Logan, Duncan and Veronica make breakfast. Enter chaos. Lilly observes and mocks from a safe distance.

March, 2002

"Ronnie, Ronnie! It's burning!" Logan said loudly. Veronica's eyes widened in fear as she quickly ran across the kitchen and shoved a frying pan off of the burner, turning the fire off. Logan sighed, picking a runny pancake out of the frying pan and looking at it.

"I don't think I did this right," he commented.

"I'm going with no," Veronica agreed, laughing. "How are the eggs?"

"...They're yellow," Duncan stated, handing Veronica a plate.

"They look right," Logan said. Veronica nodded in agreement.

"So we have eggs, runny pancakes and burnt bacon. We could open a restaurant."

"We'll make millions," Logan told her. "Maybe if I try cooking them a little longer. You should cook some more bacon."

"Do we have any more?" Veronica asked him. Duncan turned the fire off under the eggs and opened up the refrigerator, pulling out a bag of bacon and tossing it to Veronica. Before she had a chance to realize that he had tossed it, the package hit her square in the face and dropped to the ground. Veronica's jaw followed it as the boys began cracking up.

"You hit me with raw meat!" she yelled at Duncan.

"Sorry," Duncan said, shrugging. Veronica shook her head and picked the bacon up off of the ground.

"Liar," Veronica muttered.

---

Lilly woke up scared. Of course she did, something was burning. Her first thought was that the house was burning down. She began to panic, jumping out of her bed. Lilly was half way to the door when she heard her boyfriend shout Veronica's name, exclaiming that something was burning. She waited in her doorway for a second before she was hit with another whiff of the smoke, catching a hint of bacon mixed in.

"They're... Cooking?" Lilly asked herself. Her best friend, boyfriend and probably her brother were making breakfast. That was a bit too scary for her to even begin to think about. When she heard Veronica scream something about being hit with raw meat and the boys laughing hysterically, she became quite concerned, mostly for the kitchen. Walking back into her room, she pulled on a pair of jeans and one of Veronica's shirts -- Veronica and Logan had stayed over the previous night -- and ran a brush through her hair before heading downstairs to make sure her friends didn't end up more injured than they probably already were.

---

"Put down the spatula," Logan said, holding a plate in front of his face and Veronica walked closer to him. Duncan dove between the two holding a roll of paper towels and crash landed into a large pile of syrup next to the counter. Veronica and Logan stopped their fight and looked down at him.

"Stuck?" Veronica asked. Duncan nodded.

"Little," he said. Veronica sat the spatula down, glaring at Logan as she did. Duncan pulled himself up, strings of syrup still connecting him to the floor.

"Why'd you dive into a pile of syrup?" she asked him, pulling several paper towels from the roll and setting them on the floor to soak up the syrup. Duncan stood up the rest of the way and quickly moved to the sink, trying to wash the syrup from his hands and arms.

"I was trying to stop the bottle from falling, but then I hit the grease from where Logan dropped the plate.." Duncan explained. Logan looked at Veronica.

"You think we're going to banned from this place?" he asked her.

"Probably," Veronica said. "Hopefully we'll get it cleaned up before the parents get back." Duncan peeled his syrupy t-shirt off and tossed it in the sink, now filled with soapy water.

"We should clean up," he said.

"Well this is alarmimg," Lilly said, entering the kitchen. Logan was still holding the plate in one hand, leaning up against the counter the three had placed their food on, Duncan and Veronica were busy loading sponges with soap and water while Duncan's shirt soaked and the kitchen its self was covered in syrup, dry pancake mix and dirty dishes. The three turned around quickly, dropping what they were doing and plastering on fake smiles.

"We made breakfast," Veronica said weakly, her smile slipping from her face. Lilly just laughed at them.

You wanted Lilly, you got her.

Title: Drive
Fandom: Veronica Mars

Prompt: #70 - Storm
Word Count: 559
Rating: PG-13
Summary: "I can't believe you crashed the car.."

September, 2002

"Mom is going to kill us," Duncan said, making the three other people in the car burst into laughter.

"Relax Duncan, it was my idea. Besides, mom worships you, you'd be fine anyway," Lilly told him. "It's not like I meant to do this. If we just back the car up and get it to some over night shop, we'll be fine."

"Where are we supposed to find an over night car repair?" Duncan asked. Lilly rolled her eyes and looked into the back seat.

"Veronica, calm my brother down before he hurts himself," she said. Lilly tuned back around in the driver's seat and looked at Logan. "How bad is it?" Logan shrugged.

"Well, we're still alive..."

"I can't believe you crashed the car," Duncan muttered.

"Well get out and see how much damage there is if you're so worried about it!" Lilly snapped.

"It's storming!" Duncan said.

"Lilly, just turn on the car and drive out of here," Logan told her.

"Logan's right," Veronica agreed. "Find somewhere we can go and check out the car." Lilly turned the key. Nothing. She pulled her car key out of the ignition, counted backwards from ten and put it back in, turning it. The car sputtered but didn't start.

"Oh shit," Lilly said under her breath.

"What? Why oh shit?" Veronica asked from the back seat.

"We're stalled out," Logan reported. Duncan rested his head against the back window.

"What are we supposed to do now?" he asked.

"Call someone?" Veronica suggested.

"Who?" Duncan asked her. "We can't call our parents and the friends we have that can drive aren't going to come out to wherever we are and pick us up."

"Young Kane, chill out!" Lilly commanded. "Crisis solved. Logan, you and Duncan get out and push the car off of the curb, you guys are stronger than Veronica and I are."

"Storm," Duncan reminded her.

"Go!" Lilly told him.

"What's the rest of your plan?" Veronica asked Lilly once both boys were out of the car.

"They push us off of the curb, tell us how bad the car is, Duncan freaks out on me some more, I get the car to start and drive us to a place to fix it. Since Duncan and I can't go home without the car, we call the parents and say we're sleeping over with you and Logan." Veronica laughed.

"Lilly, there's no way you're going to be able to pull this off." The older girl playfully gasped.

"Are you doubting me Veronica Mars? Come on, I'm awesome, I can totally pull this off," Lilly told Veronica.

----

Veronica pulled her Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle sleeping bag from the closet and rolled it out next to her bed where Lilly sat eating a potato chip, grinning.

"Don't stay up too late," Keith Mars called into his daughter's room.

"We won't," Veronica told him.

"Thanks for giving us a ride from the movies," Lilly said to Keith. Veronica listened to hear the door of her parents bedroom close, then climbed up on the bed next to Lilly.

"I can't believe you pulled that off," she said. Not only had Lilly managed to steal her parents car, but she had also crashed it, stalled it out, found somewhere to fix it overnight, convinced her friends to walk seven blocks in the rain and lied to three sets of parents all in the course of a few hours. Lilly shrugged.

"I told you, I'm awesome."

Also, can someone remember who V went to homecoming with? Erm, let me narrow that down:
Sophomore - Duncan, Lilly, Logan
Junior - Troy, Wallace, Someone else who I can't remember
Senior - Duncan, Wallace, ~~Bitchzilla~~ Jackie

Anyone remember Wallace's date's name?

Help?

Notes: Title is from a 3 Doors Down song. Takes place rightafter Shelley's party..

December, 2003

"Where's Duncan?" Logan asked Dick.

"I haven't seen the guy in hours," Dick said. "Dude, we've gotta leave. Shelley's parents are gonna flip." Logan looked around the large, completely trashed, back yard. Saying that the Pomroys were going to freak was an understatement. Logan nodded.

"I'll meet you and Beaver at the car," he said, walking off towards the pool house, hoping nothing had happened to Duncan, knowing full well that if something had it would be on his head. Logan had been the one that slipped Duncan the GHB, after all. But he just wanted his friend to have a little fun, it was harmless, right? Logan let out a sigh of relief when he saw a disheveled Duncan walking towards him struggling to get a shoe on.

"Forget about the shoe," Logan told Duncan, pulling him along to the front of the house. Duncan looked behind him at the destroyed backyard, the chairs, food and clothing floating in the pool, various 09ers passed out in every place possible, empty beer bottles littering the ground.. If Shelley got off grounding before senior year it would be a miracle. Duncan gave the pool house a quick look before turning around and facing the direction he was being pulled.

"Ouch," he heard Logan mutter. "That's cold." Duncan looked to see what had caused his friend to make the reaction and winced. Veronica's LeBaron had been completely defaced. The tires were slashed and the windows tagged, one of them saying 'Abel, it should have been her.'

"You were doing body shots off of her last night and you think that's cold?" Duncan muttered.

"Hey, body shots aren't saying I want her dead. She was my friend too. Get in the car," Logan said, opening up the back door to his bright yellow X-Terra and pushing Duncan in before running around to the front of the car and jumping into the front. Logan put he key into the ignition and snuck another quick look at the LeBaron. There was no denying it anymore, things had gone out of control and Veronica's life was about to become a living hell..

----

Veronica woke up confused. She looked around, trying to figure out where she was and place why the room was so familiar to her. The last thing she could remember was being handed a Coke the night before. Veronica sat up. She was in Shelley's pool house, but she had no idea how she had gotten there or why she was in bed. She swung her legs over the side of the bed, her head pounding. Laying on the floor near the bed, Veronica spotted her underwear. Bed. Underwear. No memory? She wiped away the tears that had begun falling and stood up, shaking.

Someone had raped her.

Just months earlier, all the people at the party had been her friends, and now when her life was falling apart they had all turned on her, back stabbed her and raped her? She put her underwear back on and picked up her shoes, leaving the pool house quickly. As she walked through the backyard and around to the front of the house she didn't even take notice of the ruins around her. This was her life now. Ruins. As she reached her car she flinched seeing the damage that had been done. She would come back for the LeBaron later, she just had to get off of the Pomroy property, away from that pool house, away from that part of town.

----

Veronica looked up at the building in front of her. She had walked those steps thousands of times, been in so much in the past few years. But it was different this time. It seemed to take everything she had left in her to climb up those steps and enter the building.

"Veronica! What happened to you?" Inga exclaimed.

"I need to report a crime," Veronica told Inga. Inga nodded, her expression filled with concern.

"I'll get the Sheriff," she said.

----

"A crime?" Sheriff Lamb asked Veronica upon entering the interrogation room.

"I was drugged and.. Raped.. last night," Veronica told him quietly. "At Shelley Pomroy's party." Lamb arched an eyebrow.

"The Pomroys? They're good people. Is there anyone in particular you’d like me to arrest or should I just round up the sons of the most important families in town?" Veronica looked up at Lamb in disbelief.

"I've got not a shred of evidence to work with here but that really doesn't matter to your family, now does it," he told her. Veronica could feel herself crying again, but the whole thing just seemed to surreal for her to even bother trying to stop.

"Look at this, she cries. I’ll tell you what Veronica Mars, why don’t you go see the wizard. Ask for a little back bone," he said, smirking. Lamb stood up from his chair and walked out of the room, leaving Veronica alone.

----

She was thankful her parents were still asleep when she got home. Sneaking into the new apartment wasn't nearly as easy as sneaking into her old house had been, but she would have to learn. Veronica crept down the hall to her room and quickly changed her clothing. She needed to shower, to get the previous night off of her, but she knew it would wake up her parents. Putting on a pair of sneakers, Veronica left the apartment again and began the long walk to Shelley's to get her car back.

Veronica Mars was weak. She had never needed to not be before. Her life wasn't perfect, sure, but it had been pretty close. All her life she had been part of a strong, respected family. She had been popular, but she had been naive. Veronica was the kind of girl who cried during movies and who was always convinced that the things she saw on the news could never happen to her. She had sheltered herself somehow. Given who her father was, or who he had been rather, she had always been certain she was stronger and smarter than her classmates. The past few months had set it all into perspective for her. Lilly was dead. Her father had lost her job. She had lost her friends. Her whole world.

Veronica wasn't the girl she had been in September anymore. As the soap and water worked to scrub the word 'slut' from her windshield Veronica leaned her head against the steering wheel. Her old life was over.

After this moment, everything was different.

And I'd shut my eyes and swear I could hear the sea..

Notes: Named after "A Lifetime" by Better Than Ezra.

October, 2003

It was warm. It was also sunny and California in early fall, so that was expected. But it seemed inappropriate today. Veronica leaned back against the large oak tree and looked on at the almost surreal scene happening before her. Duncan was crying again, trying to disappear into the crowed it seemed. His father could hardly stand himself. In all the years she had known the Kanes she had never seen Jake Kane so.. vulnerable. Though it had been no secret to anyone that he adored his daughter. Celeste, though, appeared unfazed. That was something Veronica couldn't understand, but then again she would never quite understand Mrs. Kane and how one woman could be so cold. Veronica had spotted so many of her classmates at the calling hours -- Madison had been there, Shelley, Dick and his little brother whose name no one could ever quite remember, even Yolanda. She hadn't seen Logan though. Veronica could have used him. Her father hadn't been able to attend the funeral with her as he and Deputy Lamb had been pouring over the case day and night since the murder of Lilly Kane. God only knew where Veronica's mother was, but she certainly wasn't with her daughter.

"Lilly was more full of life than anyone I knew," Veronica heard someone say. She turned her head to where the voice had come from and gave the approaching boy a sad smile.

"I didn't think you were here. I didn't see you," Veronica said to him as he got closer.

"Of course I'm here. It just took awhile..." he told her. Veronica nodded in understanding.

"I'm afraid I'm going to start crying again," Veronica said quietly.

"Me too," Logan told her, letting a small laugh out. It was a rare occasion that a sixteen year old male would admit that he had spent the morning, and most of the past week and a half, crying.

"I still don't believe it," Veronica muttered. "We were just washing cars for pep squad.." Logan nodded.

"She was seeing someone else... I called her a bitch before the guys and I went down to Mexico.. The last thing she heard me say was that she was a bitch, Veronica," Logan said. Veronica pulled her long time friend into a hug.

"Logan, everyone in Neptune knows you loved Lilly," she assured him. "Why do you think Lilly messed with you so much?"

"Your dad is going to find out who did it, right?" Logan asked.

"I promise. Keith and Veronica Mars will not sleep until we figure it out," Veronica told Logan. No matter what happened after this moment, Veronica was going to figure out who had killed her best friend.
