Logan pushed straight through his front door not even noticing that veronica's car had just pulled up outside.

"Dad" Logan yelled. Pure hatred crossed over his eyes as he watched his father walk over to him like nothing was wrong

"Yes son" He said casually

"It was you" He screamed "you killed lily!"

Logan saw surprise then anger then total fury take over the look on his father's face

"Don't make accusations" he said in a hard voice, by this time veronica had reached the entrance to the living space where Logan and Aaron where standing, her feet were rooted to the ground as she watched the two men. Logan surprised both veronica and Aaron when he took a swing at his father knocking him to the ground, Aaron retaliated with a massive punch to Logan's face. The fight didn't last; When Logan picked up a trophy off one of his father's many trophy racks and hit his father over the head knocking him out. Logan walked over to his father as he raised his arm ready to finish what he started...

6 Weeks Earlier...

Veronica looked over at Logan. He was talking to all of the girls at the 09er table, she knew that it was her idea to keep their relationship secret it was getting harder for her especially since they had been dating for around a year and she knew she was falling in love with him, she brought her thoughts back to the conversation that Wallace and Mac where having

"No, Dell wins hands down" Wallace said as he fought with Mac over computer brands

"You only like it coz you can't figure out how to use an apple computer"

"Maybe... but I still like dell better" Wallace looked at veronica and smiled at her

"Sooo... What was so interesting about Logan?"

"Ha? What do you mean?"

"You're kidding us right?" Mac said "you've been staring at him for the past 10 minutes"

"Nothings interesting about him, I was just thinking how easy it would be to ruin his life"

"Ah yes... the same old veronica, planning on destroying Logan, I swear if you hated him anymore you two would be in love with hatred"

"Ya well lucky for me, that will never happen" veronica said as she grabbed her bag and stood up

"I'm going to go"

"Where?" Mac said as she took a chunk from Wallace's cake, the two had been dating for around 2months now.

"Case" veronica replied as she took her phone out of her pocket

"Ok, cya" Wallace said as he took some of Mac's chips

Veronica was getting into her la baron when she got a text message from Logan:

Where r u goin?

Veronica smiled as she wrote back to him:

Working on a case, y?

Logan:

No reason, just wonderin where my luvly gal is doin... join u?

Veronica:

Sure, but only if you can get away from Ur possie...

5 minutes later Logan was by veronica's car

"Yes Logan"

"Nothing, just wanted to see how my sugarpuss was doing"

"Please Logan, not the sugarpuss thing"

"Okay my lovely ladybug"

"Ladybug?"

"Well I have to choose a nickname for you don't I?"

"What about one for you...cutesiecue? Sweetie pie?"

"And you thought my nicknames where bad"

"Ya well..."

"Soo... what case are you working on?"

"Lillys..."

"Veronica... you have to stop this"

"I can't Logan not until lillys murderer is in jail"

"He already is veronica" Logan said sympathetically

"Abel didn't kill Lilly"

"Veronica he confessed"

"He was paid to confess"

"Fine, who did it then? Duncan, Jake, Celeste, me?"

"Logan..."

"Go veronica do what you need to do"

With that Logan turn around and walked away from veronica heading back towards dick who had decided to come and look for Logan. Veronica sighed as she pulled her car out and drove towards her father's office. When she arrived she stepped out of her car and walked into the office.

"Dad, I'm here" veronica called as she walked around towards her dad who was in the kitchen making a coffee

"Hey sweetie, how's school going"

"Good I'm going to go back in about 20 minutes"

"Ok sweetie"

By the time veronica had returned to school the period had already started and she was late for maths. Her teacher had let her off with a warning knowing there really wouldn't be a point in punishing her since she would end up being late again, the last class of the day she had was journalism, she wasn't too thrilled about it especially since Logan and Duncan where in that class but to Veronica's pleasure Logan had skipped out on school for the rest of the day after their fight.

After school Veronica drove straight home to mellow over her problems with Logan, she had enough bad things in her life the only two stable things were Logan and her father. She sighed as she tried to sort through all of the thoughts in her head, when she couldn't take it anymore she grabbed her bad and went out for a drive, she ended up driving to Logan's place, she couldn't remember when she had ended up in the 09er zip but decided to head in anyway. She took a deep breath as she knocked on Logan's front door, she heard a thump and then a moan as Logan walked over to the door, he opened it and was surprised to see veronica.

"What are you doing here?" he moaned

"What was that?" veronica asked as she tried to look over Logan's should

"What the thump? Oh it was just me ummm, I fell of the couch" veronica looked at Logan's face when she noticed a brooze starting to form on his left check, she put her hand up to his face, she lightly touched the brooze , Logan flinched under her touch but eased into it after a minute.

"Logan what happened? Was it your dad?"

Logan looked up at veronica in surprised then his face turned into understanding

"Ahh yes Trina... when we were at the grand"

"Logan, please"

"Veronica, you have to go"

"No Logan I won't please let me help"

Logan only nodded as he realized he wouldn't win this fight, he opened the door for her as she walked in, she grabbed his hand and brought him up to his bedroom, where she got him to sit on his bed

"Take off your shirt" veronica said to him as she walked into Logan's bathroom and came out holding the first aid kit he kept in there for when his father beat on him. "Please Logan, don't say a comment to that" she said as she watched him struggle to take of his top, she moved over to him and helped him take it off. When it was off she went and sat on the bed so Logan's back was facing her.

"Oh my god... Logan" veronica said as she saw the marks made from the belt, she touched them lightly only to feel Logan flinch, she looked at his back more intently only to see scares from previous beatings. Veronica opened the first aid kit and pulled out some cotton balls and some gauze, she looked in the bad for some alchaholic swipes but when she found none she reached over to the cupboard beside Logan's bed and took out the vodka he always kept there.

Logan looked at veronica when he watched her unscrew the cap to the vodka and put some in a cotton ball, the moment the cotton and vodka touched his skin he seethed in pain but kept in any sign he was in pain, veronica looked at his face to see his eyes glistening with tears and they started to rain down his checks, she quickly but gently finished dabbing the 17 cuts on his back patching up the ones that would need protection from bacteria.

"Done" she sighed as she helped Logan put his shirt back on, she looked at him as he got up and moved to the head of his bed he sat down and slowly lay down so he wouldn't hurt his back, veronica helped him and put a pillow under his head.

"Veronica... I'm sorry about today at lunch"

"Logan..."

"No, I know you love lily and just want to find out what happened to her... even though I disagree with the fact that someone other than Abel could of killed lily I will be here to support you"

Veronica smiled and put her hand on Logan's cheek he smiled at her as he lifted himself up to a sitting position, veronica helped him and moved the pillows around so that they would leave some space where Logan's back lay so he wouldn't be in much pain

"Logan...I know what I'm saying about lillys murder sounds insane but... There is evidence that lilies time of death was three hours off"

Logan looked at veronica as she said this

"I came here to show you this" veronica pulled out her laptop

"Veronica I've already seen this"

"No you haven't you've only seen the file on Duncan, Logan please just read it"

"Okay..." Logan said as he opened veronica's laptop.

By the time he had finished reading it was around 12:45am

"Veronica... I had no idea"

"It's okay Logan; I just wanted you to know what I know"

"Veronica"

"Ya"

"I need to tell you something" Logan said as he looked at the ground guiltily

"Anything" veronica said as she cupped his unbroozed cheek in her hand

"I lied... I lied about my alibi for the day of lillys murder"
