I KNEW YOU STILL LOVED ME.

*****A Month later

"Hello," Mac said as she looked around and found that the place was already furnished. "I like your new place. But it doesn't feel like you. Where is your stuff?"

"Still in the boxes," said Veronica, pointing to them with a smile.

"So, how are you doing these days?" Mac asked, so they can talk about the important topics in Veronica's life.

"Good."

"Really? Because last month you were ready to go and take Logan away from Emily. And from what I hear, you two are not talking again, so what happened? You're not scared, right? Or did you change your mind?" Mac inquired.

"I just been thinking about what you said," Veronica said in a serious and sad tone or at least that's how it sounded to Mac.

"What did I say?" Mac asked, feeling confused about it.

"You said that Logan was happy without me, and I think he is, so I really should stay away from him. Maybe you were right, and I just want him because he is with someone else," Veronica said pensively.

"Veronica, that was before you told me all of what happened between you two!" Mac insisted. "You're right. He proposed to her, but I think he still loves you. And you owe it to yourself and maybe to Logan, too, to tell him how you feel about him." She was trying to convince Veronica to not change her mind yet again.

"I love him. I know that. But nothing really has changed. It's not like I want to get married to him, so what I'm going to offer him, uh? Nothing. He can have what he wanted for so long with Emily, and I must accept it," Veronica flatly stated.

Mac could see that Veronica already had made a decision, and she wasn't going to fight for Logan.

"I think you should talk to him before this gets farther. This is not just you and Logan's lives that you two are messing up. Emily doesn't deserve a guy who is still in love with someone else, and if you don't believe me ask her," Mac replied, more than a hint of sarcasm in her voice.

Veronica was looking at Mac thinking about whether she should talk with Logan. She's got a point there. This isn't fair to that girl. She just got in the middle of this between me and Logan but...

"C'mon, if you do this you can get all you always wanted but were too afraid to take," Mac said cutting through her thoughts.

"And if doesn't work, I can lose Logan for good," Veronica replied. And I can´t lose him. Even I know that much.

"Well, right now it's not like you have it. If it's not to talk about your feelings you should still talk to him. Maybe just to clear the air between you two," Mac told her.

"Actually. I'm going to be in Neptune tomorrow, I need to take back this to Casey," Veronica said taking Logan's book script in her hand.

"You read it, and that's the reason why you are in this mood? What's it say?" Mac asked a little excited to know about it.

"I can't read it. It scares me. You know this is what Logan thinks about me, about us, and I'm pretty sure he writes me like the perfect girl and I'm not, and I feel like I'm betraying him if I read this without his knowledge." Yeah, now I got a conscience Veronica thought.

"Can I read it?" Mac inquiredd smiling.

"Are you kidding me? You think I would do that to Logan?"

"What? I'm just curious about it , and I can tell you what it says," Mac said with a big smile in her face and watching carefully for Veronica to get up and walk away from her. "Fine, I was kidding. No need to get angry," said Mac getting up and following her.

"I'm not angry. I don't even know how I'm feeling anymore or what to do. Maybe this wasn't the best idea after all," Veronica said pensively.

"What? Move back. Veronica what you need is to talk with Logan get out those feelings and if it does not end the way you wanted, you finally can move on from this, from Logan. I think that's what you've come to do," Mac said with a sympathetic smile.

"Yeah, I think you right I need to talk with him," tell him all and maybe when this is over he still would be my friend. "So tomorrow I will see him after I talk with Casey," Veronica decided.

"Okay, now that we are done with that, let's get started with the unpacking. Maybe we can start with your clothes. That not heavy," she said starting to walking to where the boxes were. "By the way, Wallace is getting here late. He's with Emily's friend; you know, from the wedding. They've been dating."

"Yeah, he told me," Veronica smiled and shook her head.

******Next Day Neptune

Veronica was at the kitchen with her dad talking about her plans for the day.

"I'm going to go see Casey. You remember him, right? He's the one who sold his Porsche and went to live with a cult back in high school," she reminded him.

"Vaguely," Keith answers.

"Well, we're going to have lunch, and then maybe I'll take Backup to the beach."

"Honey, I know you're not a kid anymore and that you make your own choices, but I want to know why you are coming back."

"You don't want me around? I thought you would be the most excited about it," she said with a small smile.

"Well, in a selfish part, yes, I'm more than happy you're back. But I want to know if something else happened in New York. Like if you are in trouble you would tell me, right?" Keith asked in concern.

"Nothing happened, I wasn't happy anymore there. I wanted to come back home, you know, be around family," Veronica said smiling at him.

"So there is no reason for me to check out why you were out of the field?" Keith questioned.

"How do you..." she cut herself realizing who was the person to blame. "Logan? He told you." So Logan is talking with my dad, that's interesting... She was lost in her thoughts when her father broke in.

"He was worried, that's all, and he thought I already knew. So why you didn't tell me?" Keith asked.

"It was nothing. Seriously Dad, I'm just working in profiling. It's safer at least," Veronica replied.

"Okay. Veronica, would you please tell me this kind of information before you tell your friends, and if something is wrong, I'm hoping you would tell me," Keith told her in a serious tone.

"Sorry, Dad. I just didn't want you to worry about it," Veronica said smiling.

"Well, now, what do you want for dinner?" Keith asked with a smile to her letting her know that he trusted her and forgave her for her omission.

Veronica arrived at Gant's Editorial looking for Casey.

"Good afternoon, miss. Can I help you?" the receptionist asked.

"Hi, I'm here to see Mr. Gant. I think he's waiting for me."

"Sorry, Mr. Gant is still in a meeting. Would you like something to drink in the meantime?"

"No, thank you." She went and sat down to wait but an idea came to her. "Do you know which floor Logan Echolls office is on?"

"Of course, he's on the 5th floor."

"Okay. Can you tell Casey that I'm with Logan?" Veronica asked her.

"Yes, sure, Miss."

It was Veronica's lucky day since there wasn't anyone outside of Logan's office, so she let herself in. Logan was on the phone looking at the view. But the moment he saw her, his smile disappeared, and he kept talking for some more minutes. In the meantime, Veronica was looking around his office. She saw that there were no cheesy pictures of him and Emily. Actually there were just two pictures. One of him with his mother, and one of him with Duncan, Lilly and her. She remembered that picture really well since she give it to him couple of years ago.

"I think you're in the wrong office," he said in a cold tone, starling Veronica who was still looking at the picture.

"What?" she asked since she didn't catch what he said.

"Casey's office is two floors up," Logan said, not really looking at her.

"I know. I'm coming from there; he's in a meeting." She confused as to where Logan was going with his comment.

Logan interrupted her. "And you think it was a great idea come by and say hi? What do you want, Veronica? If you didn't notice, I'm working here," Logan said in annoyance. He was acting like he couldn't wait for her to leave.

Veronica was caught off guard by his hostility. Never before had Logan not welcomed her presence. "Okay, what is wrong with you? Did I come in a bad moment because I don't understand why you are acting this way," Veronica said with a frown on her face. "I should be the one mad."

That got Logan's attention, so he looked at her and finally addressed her. "What are you talking about, Veronica?"

"You told my dad about the little trouble I had in New York. Now he knows I'm out of the field," she informed him, finally sitting on the chair in front of him.

"How I'm supposed to know? Because if I remember, there was just one person you never lied to and that was your Dad. So what's changed?" Logan asked with bitter smirk.

"I didn't come here to fight, Logan. I just come to talk to you about some major things that's been going on in my life," and you acting like an ass is not helping.

"That you are living in San Diego? Already knew. Casey told me," Logan said to Veronica then looked back at what he was doing, what I don't understand is why you told him, why are you doing this? Is it for him?

"He told you. Why?" Veronica was getting mad now. I can't believe it, why would he do that? He knows I love Logan. I was beyond drunk that night and keep talking that I want him back maybe ... and again Logan broke her thoughts.

"To let me know he is the boss, and you are off limits," Logan said in a sarcastic way. "Why do you think he is doing it? So I stay away from you."

"So that's reason you don't answer any of my calls or is it just because you're a jackass?" Veronica asked.

"I don't have anything to say to you, and I really don't want to talk about your last visit here."

"You're still mad about that? I had a lot on my mind and didn't mean to make what's her name uncomfortable but that doesn't have anything to do with you and me so why are you mad?" Veronica asked.

"Why? Let's see. You come here and make a spectacle of yourself, getting drunk, you're rude with me and with Emily, and to finish the lovely evening, you leave with Casey," he said all that looking her directly to her eyes. "And you don't call to apologize, and when you do it is to talk about you and what is going on with you."

"I was having a difficult time, okay? And like I said, it wasn't my intention to make Emily feel bad or whatever, and about Casey, he just offered to take me home."

"Did he mention whose home?" Logan asked sarcastically.

"What's that supposed to mean Logan?" Veronica said getting mad at Logan. Does he think I slept with Casey? She looked at Logan's eyes and found the answer yes, he does. Is he jealous? Veronica was watching him with a smile.

"You know what? It's none of my business what are you doing with Casey. If you want to date him, do it. I don't care." Then Logan's phone started buzzing. He looked at the phone before answering.

"Em, hi, what's up?" he said while looking at Veronica.

"I can't right now. I'm kind of busy...Some unexpected things."

Veronica took that to mean her, so she stood up and walked to the door, but when she was about to open the door she stopped and without turning around she said. "Nothing happened." and she left.

Logan was not listening to what Emily was saying. Instead, he was looking at the now closed door, and he smiled.

*****Later the same day

"What are you doing here, Logan? I thought you didn't want to talk to me," Veronica said without letting him in.

"I'm sorry. I know I was an ass with you this morning. I shouldn't had assumed that you slept with him," Logan said

"Yeah, you shouldn't have. I thought you knew me, Logan, but the fact that you believed that just tells me that you don't know me at all," maybe there is no point in trying this. We always are assuming the worst of each other.

"I knew it, okay? I knew you didn't, but, well, you were pretty drunk that day, and well it's Casey Gant. I know how girls act around him," Logan said.

Veronica was looking at him and finally opened wider the door to let him come in.

"Where is your dad?" he asked, looking around and finding just Backup on the sofa.

"He's on his way to El Paso before this guy crosses in to Mexico."

There was some tension between them.

"So you wanted to talk. Well, let´s hear it," Logan said, waiting expectantly.

Veronica took a breath. "Okay, maybe you should sit."

"What is wrong? You're scaring me. Are you okay?" Logan asked in concern at her odd behavior.

"Yes. No. I don't know anymore what the hell is going on," she replied, starting to pace. "I should stay away. I should leave right now." She was talking more with herself than with Logan.

"What are you talking about, Veronica? Just tell me," Logan ordered. Now he's right in front of her taking her by the arms to stop her pacing.

"I love you," Veronica said simply, looking him directly in the eye.

Logan released her arms and took a step back. He was too taken aback to say something, which Veronica took as her moment to say all she needed to. "I know I'm a horrible person to say it now that you've chosen to move on, but I can't keep quiet anymore when I know that I have loved you since our first kiss. Yes, I know how cheesy that sounds, but it's the truth. But I was so fucking scared of everything. You. Me. Us. So that was the reason every time we got closer I would run away from you, and why every time you asked me to be with you or be your wife I said that I can't. I know that all of that hurt you, but you can't get married to Emily. You just can't because I love you, and I want you to choose me instead and be with me," she said all at once. Finally, she stopped and was looking at him waiting for him to answer.

"I did and you say no every single time," Logan said softly. His answer is barely audible to her. "Why do you keep doing this to me? I moved on, Veronica. You said no to me when I asked you to marry me. I'm with Emily now. I'm happy with her," he said starting to get mad. He was tired of her jerking him around.

"Yeah, and you asked her to marry you how much after me? Hours. Yes, I know about that, too, and I am supposed to think that this woman would make you happy, that this woman is who you should spend the rest of your life with? Don't do this just because you're mad at me, Logan. I know you still love me. I can see it in your eyes." Veronica leaned forward to kiss him, and she was surprised when he immediately started kissing her back.

They broke apart when they needed air. "I knew you still loved me," said Veronica smiling and getting close to Logan, so they could keep kissing, but he stopped her.

"I can't do this to Emily. I do love her." He was looking at her straight in her eyes, seeing the tears that are about to roll down. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't come", and with that he turned and walked out her door.
