Disclaimer: I have absolutely nothing to do with Rob Thomas or the CW/UPN. I only want to pay homage to the amazing characters that they have created.

His hand was soft to the touch as it crept towards the space in between her legs and he was treated with a moan when it finally reached its destination.

"I want to make this good for you," he said as he simulated her clit.

"Oh my god," she moaned as he started to stroke her nipples. Eventually, he got up to find a condom. He found it and she put it over his throbbing errection.

"That's it," he said. "Good job."

"It's not like I have not done this before," she said. However, just as he was about to thrust himself into her, she yelled out, "Stop!" She couldn't do this. She couldn't do this with him. It didn't seem right, so she quickly put on her clothes and ran out of the house.

When Veronica got home, Logan was there waiting for her. "How was your date?" he asked.

"It was alright," Veronica said uncomfortably. It did not seem right to her talking about her love life with her soon-to-be ex husband.

"Well, the kids are asleep now, so I guess that I will be going," Logan said with no once of emotion in his voice.

"Okay, thank you for watching them tonight."

"It was no problem. I should be watching them. I am their father. Well, I guess that I will be going now. Have good night. Bye."

"Bye."

Veronica watched as Logan walked towards the door, opened it and left. Veronica went upstairs to check on her children and then she went to her room. She brushed her teeth, washed her face, and got into her night time clothes. Veronica proceeded to get into her king size bed. Veronica thought that her bed as very lonely now a days seeing as she was the only one that slept in it. Veronica started to think about the better days in her life.

After Cassidy's and Aarons' deaths, Logan and Veronica became incredibly close because they realized that life was too short for them not to be together. Both of them ended up going to Hearst. At Hearst, the two became the best friends and lovers. In the middle of their sophomore year, Logan proposed to Veronica and she happily accepted. The two were married the summer before their senior year of college.

They both graduated from Hearst with honors. Veronica graduated with a degree in photography and Logan graduated with a degree in journalism. Veronica started to take pictures for Neptune's local newspaper, while Logan started to write books. They had their first child, Lily Lynn Echolls, two years after college and Megan Faith Echolls, followed two years later. However, everything changed five years later after Dick Casablancas died.

Dick and Mac got married a year after Logan and Veronica got married. No one ever thought they would have ever gotten together, but after Cassidy's death, anything could happen. They had twin boys, Cassidy Brian Casablancas and Andrew Richard Casablancas. Dick and Mac had become Logan and Veronica's closest friends, that was until Dick passed away.

Dick was killed in a car accident while driving home from work one day. The other driver was drunk and it was a head on collision. The death was hard for everyone, but Logan took it especially hard.

Logan started to drink and would come home each night at 1 am always wasted. It would always be Veronica's job to take care of him. This went on for months and Veronica grew sick of it. She wanted her old loveable husband back and most nights they would fight about it. Finally, Veronica threw the divorce papers in his face. She told him that she had enough and that if he wasn't going to change then she wasn't going to let him see her or the kids any more. A week later Logan left the house.

Logan decided to quit drinking and Veronica started to date other men again. Over time, Veronica started to let Logan see his kids again.

As Veronica lay in bed thinking about her past, she started think about the date that she had that night. Her date, Leo, was really sweet and she liked him a lot. However, Veronica wondered why she had not been able to go all the way with him, but in her heart she knew the answer. She had done this with other guys before Leo too.

It was because of Logan.
