Chapter 2

It'd been three months since the incident with Aaron Echoll's and Weevil had been seeing more and more of Veronica, she'd finally gotten herself together again and told Logan where to go and how to get there…which technically meant she didn't need him or the guys to intercept any unwanted conversations or visits. However, that hadn't stopped her from seeking him out or from Weevil checking in on her. He'd told himself that was all it was, they were friends and that meant you checked up on one another.

Which was why he wasn't really surprised to see her at lunch, she was sitting on the wall looking down at him. "What's up V?" He asked, looking up at her. "Are you busy later? I have a thing I could use some help with." She was being oddly vague which caused him to raise a brow at her. "Really depends on what that thing is." Weevil stated, which was true. He wasn't about to agree to anything until he knew what he was agreeing too. "I need some help with the Le Baron."

"You want me to help you with your car? Do I look like a mechanic?" Weevil asked, though he already knew he would help her, he liked hanging out with Veronica…He wasn't going to let the guys think he was going soft though. "I mean, kinda. At least you look like the guy who changes my dad's oil." Her quick wit had him chuckling, she was the only person he knew like her. The only person he'd let make a joke like that without taking it personally.

"Yeah, yeah. You think you're so funny don't you." She shrugged a shoulder. "If the shoe fits. Will you help?" Weevil set his shoulders as he looked at the guys and then back at Veronica. "I'll see if I can squeeze you in." He'd be there, they both knew it. "Great."

Just like that she was leaving, and he was doing his best to get the guys to get their shit together and head to class.

When Weevil arrived at Veronica's apartment building, she was standing with the hood of her vehicle open as she did something or another under it. "Couldn't wait for me?" Weevil asked as he turned off the ignition to his bike. "Internet is a wonderful thing." Came the reply from under the hood, making him get off the bike so he could lean against her car. "Is that so? Is that why you're poking around the windshield fluid?" He asked as she finally lifted her head to look at him.

"That would explain why it's blue and not oily…." Veronica muttered making a face as she handed him the cap to the washer fluid. "It's all you big guy." Weevil snorted, taking the cap from her and putting it back on for her before moving towards the oil so he could check it. "So, you wanted me here to change your oil?" He asked looking at her with a raised brow, not that it was a big deal. "No, I mean this is helpful and needed." She stated as she took the spot that he'd vacated. "I just thought if I gave you a reason to cover it would look better in front of your boys."

She'd created a front for him, which was something she didn't need to do but had done so anyway. "So, you just wanted to see me?"

"What if I did?" Veronica asked watching him grab the bottle of oil she'd purchased earlier to top up hers. "Well I'd tell you that you don't need a full oil change right now. And, that you didn't need an excuse for me to spend time with you…not sure if you've notice but I kind of like hanging around you Mars." He thought that had been obvious at this point.

"I figured you didn't, but a girl can never be too sure." She stated with a smile before handing him a rag to wipe his hands on. "Mhm, well I'm here now and done so what else did you have in mind?" Weevil asked hoping that it wasn't going to be case related and that they could just hang out. "Well dad is gone for the night and I have a pizza to order and movies to watch if you're interested. I'll even let you pick a movie…maybe even a pizza topping."

Veronica teased as she pushed herself off the car, waiting for him to close the hood so they could head upstairs to her apartment. "Well don't I feel spoiled." "You're telling me I get to pick the movie and one pizza topping?" Weevil couldn't help but play along with her. "Not if you get all cocky and such." She stated as she nodded her head towards where her apartment door was located. "Well?"

"Let's order pizza and watch a movie."

The rest of the evening was spent watching movies, eating pizza and snacking on popcorn and other snack foods Veronica had in her apartment. At the end of the of the night they fell asleep tangled together on the couch.
