"I better answer that." Veronica said to herself as she exited the classroom.

"Hello." she answered not recognizing the number.

"Hi, this is Debra from the county hospital. Is this Veronica Mars?"

"Yes, this is she. Is there a problem?" she asked nervously knowing that calls from the hospital are never a good sign.

"Yes, it seems that a Logan Echolls was rushed to the Emergency Room earlier this morning.He has you listed as one of his contacts. Are you a relative of Mr. Echolls?"

"I'm his girlfriend." she replied.

Well we'd like for you to come by the hospital as soon as possible. Do you think you could come down to the hospital now?" asked the receptionist.

"Yes... but what's going on?" Veronica asked urgently quickening her pace as she walked towards her car in the parking lot.

"Mr. Echolls was in an accident. The Doctor will explain his condition to you himself once you arrive."

"I'll be there in five minutes." she said and hanged up.

Veronica walks into the hospital and into the nurses station. They direct her to her boyfriend's room where she is horrified by all the scrapes and bruises on Logan. She enters the room quietly not noticing the doctor.

"God, Logan. What did you do?" she thought to herself.

"Ms. Mars?" asked an unfamiliar voice.

"Yes." she answered surprised while turning to her side to see the doctor.

"Hi I'm Dr. Martinez. Your Logan's girlfriend I assume." he said politely.

"Yes Doctor. Is he going to be okay?" she asked with much concern.

"He was very lucky. He managed to fracture a few ribs. Right now he is under medication to keep the swelling down. He should be waking up in at least an hour or so."

(Two hours later)

Veronica was sitting on a chair next to his bed and holding his hand. She hadn't left his side since she got to the hospital. Then she felt a movement and looked up to see a no longer unconscious Logan.

"Ronnie? Baby is that you?" asked a dazed Logan who was finding it very hard to move and was sore all over.

"Logan!" she exclaimed happily seeing that he woke up.

"Hey." he said softly.

"I was so worried about you! Don't you dare do that again!" she smacked him lightly on the chest.

"I'm sorry." he mumbled.

"How did this happen? Why wouldn't anyone tell me how you got in this accident?" she asked curiously.

"I asked them if I could tell it to you personally. Listen, I may have had a few drinks last night…" he said trying not to make eye contact with Veronica knowing the next words that were going to come out of his mouth would more than upset her. He started to look at the ceiling hoping that this all would be a dream… a really bad dream.

"Please tell me you didn't try driving to my apartment after you called?! Are you crazy!?" she said trying to steady her voice without yelling. She knew the last thing they needed was to cause a scene yet she couldn't help herself now knowing the piece of information as to why he was put into the hospital in the first place.

"I don't know what I was thinking…" he said.

"You weren't thinking… at all! You were drunk!" she practically screamed.

"I know." he said shamefully.

"No Logan, I don't think you know at all."

"I do, trust me." he said knowing that he's heard the same lecture over and over again.

"Trust you? Oh please, you could have killed someone. You could have died!" she replied angrily as she paced around the room not wanting to look at him.

"I know." Logan said quietly.

"Stop saying you know when you have no idea! You don't care about anyone but yourself. " she screamed again and now she was pretty sure the whole hospital could hear them.

"Stop yelling! I know I messed up." he said finally raising his voice to hers.

"Logan, you need to start thinking that your actions have consequences. How could you of been so stupid? You of all people must have learned that drinking and driving doesn't mix after the incident on the bridge!" she lectured to him.

"I get it, Veronica. Save the lecture." he said irritated trying to shift his body so that he didn't have to stare at her.

"No Logan, you have to listen. I don't know why I let you do this to yourself… to us. You are getting out of control. You need to get your life together or…"

"What? You'll break up with me? Go ahead run away." he said bitterly.

"I should break up with you, Logan… but I'm won't."

"Why thank you for being so fuckin' considerate." he said sarcastically.

"You have no right to be acting like your upset! I'm the one that had to get the damn phone call about the love of her life being in the hospital not knowing if he was going to live or die!" she said as she had tears streaming down her face.

"I'm sorry… please don't cry…" he said while he pat the bed so that she could sit next to him.

"Logan… I don't know what to do anymore. Every time we're together…I just end up crying. I don't want to cry anymore." Veronica whispered.

"I know baby." he said while rubbing her back as she cried in his chest.
