Champagne Kisses

"At midnight, they all stood ready with their glasses of bubbly – sparkling cider that is, and strawberry flavored to boot – and watched the countdown on the TV. When the ball dropped they raised their glasses and drank to the New Year. He didn't mind the lack of booze or the fruity flavor when he turned to Veronica and they kissed. It was a short, chaste kiss since her father was watching, but with the sweet taste of strawberry on her lips, it was enough to make him feel intoxicated. They broke apart a few seconds later, and Veronica had the grace to blush." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: September 2005 Pairings/Characters: Veronica/Logan, ensemble Word Count: ~2,400 Rating: PG-13 Spoilers: none - starts in season 2 and continues into the future Summary: Every New Year's Day, they'd kiss at midnight – some years with cider and later years with champagne.

Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie...

"It was another scorching hot day where the air conditioner could only try to keep up with the heat. It didn't help matters that her cast seemed to add what felt like another ten degrees to her already sweltering body. She was sprawled over the couch in the bikini, trying unsuccessfully to read a novel while holding a misting fan up to face. This was how Logan found her when he let himself into her apartment, stopping dead in his tracks when his eyes raked over her rather skimpy attire. His jaw dropped and he shut the door behind him carelessly." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: June 2006 Pairings/Characters: Veronica/Logan, Keith Word Count: ~3,700 Rating: R for sex Spoilers: up to 2.22 - takes place during the summer after season 2 Summary: It's hot... it's summer... and Veronica's bored.

May It Be

"Yes, the idea of pregnancy scared her, but for some insane reason, she felt the need to do this. She couldn't explain it – there was no deep meaningful reason beyond the simple desire to help Trina, just because she could. A small part of her was actually excited at the prospect. Over the years she'd hurt a lot of people, and been the bearer of bad news, but for once, she had the opportunity to really help someone – to make them happy." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: April 2006 - December 2008 Pairings/Characters: Veronica/Logan, Trina/OMC, ensemble Word Count: ~57,500 / incomplete Rating: R for language and sex Spoilers: up to 2.12 - takes place in the future Summary: Trina asks Veronica for a big favor.

Peanut Butter

"It had gotten harder saying 'no' over the years, especially when Alexis wants to know why she can't have peanut butter. What's so bad about it? She and her brother are allowed chocolate, ice cream, cookies, and other treats, but never peanut butter. How does one explain to their ten year old daughter that peanut butter is the reason she doesn't have a father? Why the smell of it makes her mother fall apart after years of trying to be strong?" ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: September 2006 Pairings/Characters: Veronica/Logan, original characters Word Count: ~2,100 Rating: PG-13 Spoilers: none - takes place in the future Summary: Tragedy strikes Veronica and Logan's picture-perfect life.

Possession

"Something shifted next to him and he looked down and nearly wept with joy. Nestled at his side was his daughter, blonde hair fanned out on the bed with her arm flung over him. His chest rattled as he took a deep breath and he squeezed his eyes at the pain, but seeing his little girl safe was like a salve to his wound. He brought his hand up and stroked her soft cheek, so thankful that she hadn't been hurt. The day she'd been born, he'd promised to keep her safe. He'd almost failed her." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: February 2007 Pairings/Characters: Veronica/Logan, Duncan, Mac Word Count: ~5,200 Rating: R for violence, mentions of mental health issues Spoilers: up to 2.11 - takes place in an alternate universe in the future Summary: It's been ten years since Duncan left Neptune with his daughter.

Honor System

"Whoa. Definitely not just Mac; he had a fleeting worry that it might never be just Mac again. But it was… still Mac, he thought, with the same distant part of his brain not occupied with the determined inquiry of her mouth, or her hand tightening at his waist.

The Effects of Quantum Entanglement on Teenaged Private Eyes

"She had just given up on a stakeout, the night she felt the bond come to life. Distress roared through her, tightness in her chest and the burn of chlorine and whiskey in her throat, and it didn't let up even as she she jerked the car into a U-turn and headed away from home.

"Even slouching on the sofa with a hangover, Lilly was graceful; one dress strap fell artfully down her arm, and she was eyeing herself in the mirror across the room, turning her head for some unseen photographer.

"This isn’t Ronnie's kind of problem at all, honest. You only THINK you need her because our flyboy brainwashed your young tender brain to think she can fix anything. And sure," he made an expansive gesture with, she knew it, the brownie in his left hand, "lose your dog or your husband or your balls like Logan did? You call Veronica Mars. But.

All That's Best of Dark and Light

"In July, they go back to the beach. They hold hands as the waves wash over their bare feet and spread forgiveness over the old betrayal. She brings a blanket and they sit down to look at the stars. She points out real constellations and he makes up fake ones just to hear her laugh. They have both paid a heavy price for their freedom, but when she sees him like this, unguarded and happy, she knows it was worth everything and more." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: September 2005 Pairings/Characters: Veronica/Logan Word Count: ~1,400 Rating: R for sex Spoilers: up to 1.22 - starts at the end of season 1 and continues into season 2 Summary: Veronica and Logan's relationship through the seasons of the year.

Here's to the Night

"Lilly tasted like warm champagne and strawberry lip gloss and Veronica could feel herself falling into the kiss as she reached forward, needing to touch skin. She forced her brain to shut down, quieting the small voice screaming that this was wrong. Pushing Lilly's shirt up to run her hands eagerly over the warm smoothness underneath, Veronica didn't really care what was right or wrong as long as Lilly didn't stop touching her." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: April 2006 Pairings/Characters: Lilly/Veronica/Logan Word Count: ~4,700 Rating: NC-17 for language and sex Spoilers: up to 1.01 - takes place in an alternate universe pre-series Summary: Here's to the nights we felt alive, here's to the tears you knew you'd cry.

Out of Area

"He licked at the seam of her lips, and she parted them, allowing his tongue access to her mouth. She'd forgotten how good he tasted, how warm his mouth was, how he knew exactly how to slide his tongue against hers to make her knees go weak. She'd forgotten what it felt like to kiss him, really kiss him, not a chaste brushing of lips like earlier in the bank. But now the memories were flooding back and she wanted more." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: May 2006 Pairings/Characters: Veronica/Logan Word Count: ~3,300 Rating: R for language and sexual situations Spoilers: up to 2.19 - takes place in an alternate universe season 2 Summary: Logan and Veronica are getting cryptic phone calls.

The Secrets We Keep

"Veronica stared, transfixed, as Lilly moaned against Logan's lips, arching her body into him. Realizing that she was gaping, she snapped her gaze away to concentrate on the grass, the stars, anything but how badly she wished she was the one winding her fingers through Logan's hair and sliding her tongue into his mouth. Not admitting that she was in love with her sister's boyfriend was the first step in Veronica's one-step plan of continued denial." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: February 2006 Pairings/Characters: Veronica/Logan, Lilly/Logan, ensemble Word Count: ~6,300 Rating: R for language, sex and violence Spoilers: up to 1.22 - takes place in an alternate universe pre-series to future Summary: What if Veronica's life had been drastically different and she'd been raised as a Kane?

What Friends Are For

"Taking one hand off her arm, leaving a cold space where the warmth of his fingers had been, Logan put a finger under her chin. Slowly, he lifted her head up until she had no choice but to meet his eyes with her own. His brown eyes were dark, shadowed with some emotion that Veronica was afraid to put a name to; because that would be admitting it was real. The air around them was still and quiet, but it was charged with so much tension that Veronica was surprised it wasn't sparking and bursting into flame." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: February 2006 Pairings/Characters: Veronica/Logan, Jane/Wallace, Lilly Word Count: ~3,400 Rating: R for language and sex Spoilers: up to 2.12 - takes place in an alternate universe season 2 Summary: Veronica gets a little help from her BFFs, living and otherwise.

Her Heart Drinks Wine

"The silence wraps around her and she finds it, coupled with Logan's presence, to be strangely comforting. He broke up with her twenty-six days ago and her mind has been going nonstop in that time. This is the first time she's been quiet and felt okay. A little more at peace instead of harried and desperate. Maybe that means tonight actually served a purpose. Or maybe she's at peace because she's near Logan and, if that's the case, she's screwed." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: December 2014 Pairings/Characters: Veronica, Logan, Mac Word Count: ~5,600 Rating: R for language Spoilers: up to 3.09 - takes place in an alternate universe season 3 Summary: Logan is in Aspen, Veronica has had too much eggnog and she wants her stuff back.

I Know That Face

"For the second time in his life, Veronica had kissed him and left him standing by himself wondering what the hell had just happened. He didn't understand why a kiss on the cheek from Veronica was powerful enough to leave him incapable of speech, and yet there he stood. He suspected that if he ever kissed her on the lips again, his entire brain may explode, and he'd have no hope of recovery. From what he heard, brain explosions were almost always fatal." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: June 2013 - November 2015 Pairings/Characters: Veronica/Logan, ensemble Word Count: ~229,800 Rating: R for language and subject matter Spoilers: up to 3.20 - takes place in the future Summary: Veronica and Wallace are roommates in Chicago and heading back to Neptune for the holidays.

In Lovers Meeting

"By the time he realizes he knows the scent of her perfume, the light citrusy scent heralding her presence in the coffee shop before he ever sees her, he's halfway to falling in love. The most torturous moments are when she stands behind him in line. When her perfume mixes with the scent of cookies and he wonders if it smells the same in the space between her neck and shoulder as it does lingering in the air between them." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: March - June 2015 Pairings/Characters: Veronica/Logan, ensemble Word Count: ~16,400 Rating: R for language Spoilers: none - takes place in seven different alternate universes Summary: Logan and Veronica meet in seven different ways: college best-friends, best-friend's stepsister, co-workers at the same law firm, childhood next door neighbors, guests at a wedding, cast members in the same play, coffee shop acquaintances.

Reunions

"This isn't a new beginning. This isn't like high school when they went from acting like they hated each other to making out. They're not going to pretend the past ten years didn't happen. And he's grateful, because maybe that's why they never worked out before. That's when he realizes he's actively hoping they do work out this time, despite the fact he has no basis for such a presumptuous idea. But that's never stopped him before." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: October - December 2013 Pairings/Characters: Veronica/Logan, Veronica/OMC, OFC/Wallace Word Count: ~34,000 Rating: R for language Spoilers: up to 3.20 - takes place in the future Summary: Sometimes it just takes a little longer to get things right.

You Got Me Good

"They pass the landmark that lets him know he's a mile from his place which means he's been running in a full out sprint for about six and a half minutes. Call him weak but he can't do it anymore. He still wants her number, but he can't ask for it if his lungs shrivel up and he swallows them. He practically falls to his knees in a grassy knoll beside the running loop, rolling onto his back and squeezing his eyes shut. Maybe on her next loop around the lake she'll take pity on him and call an ambulance." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: December 2015 Pairings/Characters: Veronica/Logan, ensemble Word Count: ~4,500 Rating: R for language Spoilers: none - takes place in an alternate universe Summary: Logan sees the same woman every day while out for his morning run.

Ashes to Ashes

"Her face felt wet, and she realized she was crying. Wallace turned, wrapping his arms around her. She stiffened in his embrace and then relaxed against him. She didn't want to cry, or at least she didn't want to keep crying. Taking a deep breath, she turned and directed a half smile up at her friend. One by one she was losing the people she loved. She glanced at Logan who was studying her reaction intently. As she stood between the pair, she realized she couldn't lose anyone else.

"Logan turned in his seat so he was facing his current opponent. Starting with her perfectly painted pink toenails, he blatantly let his eyes wander up her bare legs before focusing on her low cut tee shirt and finally met her eyes. Her mouth was a tight, furious line and her face was flush with either anger or something a hell of a lot more interesting. It was probably both, he decided with a smirk." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: December 2005 Pairings/Characters: Veronica/Logan, Weevil Word Count: ~6,000 Rating: R for language and sex Spoilers: up to 2.09 - takes place in an alternate universe season 2 Summary: Veronica is helping Logan with his case.

If You Can't Pronounce the Name of the Library, You Might as Well F*ck in It

"The moment hung suspended as his eyes bore into hers. Playing games with Veronica was difficult. They'd begin with a mere battle of wills that would soon escalate into an all out argument. Hell, he wasn't even sure who started this one. Was it her with her comment of no sex in the library, or was it him when he had taken it to the next level by intentionally turning her on and then turning her down? What he knew for sure was this feeling of being at the edge of an abyss waiting to fall over wasn't worth the win. With her hand on his arm, and tears welling in her eyes, he knew it didn't matter who started it." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: October 2006 Pairings/Characters: Veronica/Logan Word Count: ~4,800 Rating: NC-17 for language and sex Spoilers: none - takes place in the future Summary: Grumbling a curse or two under his breath, he tried to remember how he got roped into this gig to begin with.

"I ducked down beside Wallace, hoping to hide from The Ex. Fate, though, was not on my side. I watched him approach our table, and tried not to drool. The past two years had done nothing to diminish his appeal. There may have been a few new lines at his eyes and at the corners of his mouth, but he was still gorgeous. The low slung jeans, the sexy saunter, and his carnal grin were causing heads to turn, and not just women's. Logan was equal opportunity eye candy – God, I hated that about him." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: June 2006 Pairings/Characters: Veronica/Logan, ensemble, original characters Word Count: ~10,100 Rating: NC-17 for language, violence and sex, mentions of child abuse Spoilers: up to 2.22 - takes place a little over a decade after season 2 Summary: Veronica and Logan have their issues.

A Feather's Weight

"Somewhere on the walk between Chemistry and English, Veronica realizes what she's done. It's a little weird, actually, as though she's spent the last three hours in a vengeful haze that only now has rationality managed to conquer. It's his locker that does it. She looks there almost automatically, expecting to see him leaning against it, smiling that tight, almost hopeful, smile. Tilting his head and bantering with her in that absurdly sexy sotto voice that always makes her knees shake.

"She hadn't seen Logan once this weekend, and she hadn't spent a moment without him in her thoughts. She was helpless in the face of her horror. She had long since lost any claim to plausible deniability about her feelings for him. This was not lingering affection. This was not guarded friendship. This, she thought, staring down at what was probably her tenth coffee that weekend, was abject, helpless, die-saving-him-in-a-fire love. Love for the boy who would vomit at the smell of pears and had been permanently cured of any temptation to sneak cigarettes. Love for the man who would stare at her until she forgot her name, who would burn down swimming pools and use innocent girls like inflatable toys if the stakes were high enough." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: May 2006 - July 2008 Pairings/Characters: Veronica/Logan, ensemble Word Count: ~33,800 / incomplete Rating: R for language and subject matter, mentions of child abuse Spoilers: up to 3.04 - takes place in an alternate universe season 2 Summary: When Logan succumbs to a mysterious and possibly deadly illness, Veronica is determined to discover who is responsible and why.

Wallace needed to know the why." ~*~*~*~ Publication Date: April 2005 Pairings/Characters: Wallace, Veronica, Logan Word Count: ~2,000 Rating: PG-13 Spoilers: up to 1.18 - takes place after the events in 'Weapons of Class Destruction' Summary: Wallace knows something is going on with Veronica.
