He woke up from dreaming and put on his shoes
starting making his way past 2 in the morning
He hasn't been sober for days
6 clear bottles lined up in a row, the finest liquor the son of a movie star could buy. October 25th the calendar read. A bad day, in a bad month for Logan Echolls. The day the love of his life disappeared never to return.
Leaning now into the breeze
Remembering Sunday, he falls to his knees
they had breakfast together
but two eggs don't last
like the feeling of what he needs
Now this place seems familiar to him
She pulled on his hand with a devilish grin
She led him upstairs, she led him upstairs
Left him dying to get in
Logan left the room. Walking a familiar path through the night. He strolled down the beach, salt breeze in his face remembering that Sunday. Him and Veronica having a breakfast picnic on the beach, just so they could watch the sunrise, the feeling of love surrounding them. Logan walked into the parking lot at the Camelot Motel, scene of their first kiss and their last bittersweet moment as she had sporadically decided to book a room.
Forgive me, I'm trying to find
my calling, I'm calling at night.
I don't mean to be a bother,
But have you seen this girl?
She's been running through my dreams
and it's driving me crazy, it seems
I'm gonna ask her to marry me
For years Logan looked for any possible leads in Veronica's disappearance, every time he came home disappointed. Her smiling face automatically running through his brain as he wandered the halls of Neptune High. Fingering the ring he was waiting to give her, the perfect ring that she would never get to wear. Tears streamed down his face, as he walked on.
Even though she doesn't believe in love,
He's determined to call her bluff
Who could deny these butterflies?
They're filling his gut
waking the neighbours, unfamiliar faces
He pleads though he tries
But he's only denied
Now he's dying to get inside
Climbing the steps of the Oceanside Apartments a memory flashed through his mind, of the summer before sophomore year, days before her disappearance.
Keith was away, so he and Veronica set up camp and after consuming a bottle of wine between them she announced, "Tell me something Logan, tell me something true."
"I brought us a house," he had revealed. She nodded, head coked to one side processing. "Ok,"
Logan had raised his eyes, "That's all?"
"Yup," she said kissing him softly, "Ok my turn, something true, I'm pregnant."
Logan knocked don apartment 111 believing Veronica will open the door with a kiss and a hug but the apartment had lain empty since Keith had left, six months after Veronica's disappearance. "Can I help you?" and unfamiliar voice called. "No I was just looking for someone," Logan ran down the stairs to the final place of his journey.
The neighbors said she moved away
Funny how it rained all day
I didn't think much of it then
But it's starting to all make sense
Oh, I can see now that all of these clouds
Are following me in my desperate endeavor
To find my whomever, who ever she may be
I'm not coming back (forgive me)
I've done something so terrible
I'm terrified to speak (I'm not calling, I'm not calling)
But you'd expect that from me
I'm mixed up, I'll be blunt, now the rain is just (You're driving me crazy, I'm)
Washing you out of my hair and out of my mind
Keeping an eye on the world,
So many thousands of feet off the ground, I'm over you now
I'm at home in the clouds,
Towering over your head.

The Most Badass Detective
Epically Loved
It was raining the day Logan found out, so uncommon in the forever sunny California. Someone had found her body beneath the Coronado Bridge. It was ruled a suicide. Hundreds of people came to her funeral and just as Logan walked away from her grave Keith Mars stepped out from behind a tree. He didn't say anything, but just handed Logan a letter and left. Logan sat at her grave now and read aloud her 'suicide note'.
"Logan I'm not coming back. Gory got to me so I have to disappear. Please know that I love you and I would have said yes
Veronica x0x0"
As he did every year he screamed at her "You're not invincible Veronica and you're not always right. You screwed up, didn't tell me and got yourself killed!" Blind hatred pulsating through his veins, she was the most infuriating person in the world. Logan sat down cross legged on her grave.
"So Ronnie, what's been going on in the fabulous life of me? Graduated, surprised aren't you? Well Dick, Wallace, Mac and I partied like the good old days. Oh God Dick and Mac are engaged, it's disgusting. I mean the thought of Dick breeding."
He set a dozen red calla lilies, the ring and the letter "I'm leaving these with you now ok? Babe I'm going to LA next week but I'll be back." He kissed her grave and tiny plaque next to it

"Bye Baby," Logan said softly to his child he would never meet, and began to walk again.
"Well I guess I'll go home now...
I guess I'll go home now...
I guess I'll go home now...
I guess I'll go home"
