Veronica groggily opened her eyes, realizing this wasn't her bed that she had fallen asleep in she started to panic. Weevil, who was seated in the chair across from the bed. Saw the panicked expression on V's face and spoke up.
"Relax V, you're safe." Weevil spoke startling her. "Its about time you woke up girl." The Latino spoke.
Veronica knew where she was now. The last thing she remembered was crying in Weevil's arms. She must've fallen asleep afterwards.
"How long have I been sleeping?" She asked.
"A couple of hours." Weevil replied.
"Hours! Shit we have to get back to Neptune, I need to call Logan and let him know where I am and what we found out!" She said jumping out of the bed.
"Relax V, it's already taken care of. I called Echolls and told him about the pictures, he's going to pull Sophie from school first thing in the morning. He's going to keep her close to home until we get the situation handled. I didn't mention anything about that Aslan guy, I figured we should wait until we know more." Weevil informed
"You still shouldn't have let me sleep so long, the sooner we find Aslan Sorokin and or Trina the better." Veronica said putting on her jacket ready to go.
"We figured you'd be pissed about letting you sleep." Weevil said chuckling.
"We?" V asked confused knitting her eyebrows together.
"Your fiancée and I. When I called him, I told him you were asleep and he said you'd probably chew my head off for letting you sleep. I told him I could take a lashing. I thought I'd let you rest now because knowing you, you wouldn't sleep again until we found Trina." Weevil explained.
"Do I smell a bond forming between two of Neptunes reformed bad boys." V asked smiling.
"Don't get crazy now. Logan and I don't agree on much hell we don't agree at all. But when it involves you we have an understanding, and that's where it ends." Weevil told the petite blonde.
"My, my, my aren't I lucky." She quipped following him out the door.
_||||\\\\||||\\\\|||||\\\\|||||\\\\||||\\\\|||
By the time Weevil and Veronica arrived back in Neptune it was almost 3 a.m. Against Veronica's will they arranged to meet up first thing in the morning. She didn't see why they couldn't just continue the investigation, but neither one of them would be any good without a proper nights sleep.
Veronica walked inside and saw that Logan was still up. He was seated in the living room with a drink in hand watching over Sophie as she slept on the love seat.
"What are you still doing up?" She asked softly sitting her bag down on the table.
"I couldn't sleep without having both of my girls here." He turned to her and said mustering up a small smile.
Logan looked worn out and his bloodshot eyes indicated he had been crying. Veronica hated feeling like she was somehow responsible for bringing havoc into his and Sophie's life. If she had just went back to New York like she was suppose to none of this wouldn't happened.
"Well I'm home now. C'mon, grab Soph and lets go upstairs." She smiled.
Veronica laid Sophie down in her bed and said a small prayer before kissing her goodnight. She headed down the hall to her and Logan's room and fell into bed. Logan caressed her shoulders and started to massage his lover. He could feel the tension and stress in her muscles. He removed her bra and kissed her bare back.
"I know you think this is all your fault, but it's not." Logan spoke while still massaging Veronica's back. "Its just as much my fault, you've got to stop blaming yourself." He continued.
Veronica rolled over on her back to face him. "How could this be your fault? You're amazing you've provided a safe normal and loving environment for Sophie. If you're guilty of anything it's for being too good of an uncle/father. I'm the one who inserted myself into your lives, maybe if I just would've gone back to New York I-" Veronica explained before being interrupted by Logan.
"You didn't insert yourself anywhere if anything Sophie and I pulled you into our lives. If you went back to New York then we would've never gotten engaged, you would've missed Sophie's birthday and her first day of kindergarten. Not to mention you're back doing what you love at Mars Investigation. Way I see it, you're right where you need to be. We love you, we're a family and I would kill anyone who tries to take you or Sophie from me. Veronica we are going to get through this, it's just another bump in our rocky roller coaster ride." Logan stated before kissing his bride to be.
After her relaxing night with Logan, Veronica imagined waking up to an even more peaceful morning. Instead she awoke to the cold metal of a gun placed against her temple.
"Wake up Bitch!" The gunman spoke pressing the gun further into her head.
"Put these on and let's join that fiancé of yours." The gunman said tossing her some clothes then leading her downstairs.
When Veronica got downstairs she saw Logan on the couch, he was unconscious and badly beaten.
"Logan !" She cried out attempting to rush to his aide but was stopped by the masked gunman.
"Veronica Mars, nice of you to join us. Have a seat next to your fiance, I'm sure you're wondering why I'm here. Its simple I want Sophie, you know Sophie right? My daughter, the one you've gotten pretty chummy with while playing house with my brother here." Trina spoke
"Where is Sophie? If you hurt her I swear to god I'll-" Veronica started to threaten Trina but was interrupted with a slap to the face.
"Shit!" Trina said grabbing her hand after striking the blonde. "Don't worry she's safe, I didn't hurt her after all she is my daughter." Trina smirked.
"You're mad with me I get it, let Logan and Sophie go then feel free to do whatever you have to do to me." Veronica said through clenched teeth still feeling the burn from the slap Trina gave her.
Of course you think this is about you, classic Veronica. But don't worry I am going to deal with you." Trina laughed. "But see, my dear brother Logan here has betrayed me as well. Letting another woman play mother to my child and portraying me as some kind of monster. Ouch." She added laughing again it was obvious she was high on something.
"Logan never spoke bad about you to Sophie, he wouldn't do that. If anything he told her to forgive you, everyone deserves another chance." Veronica spoke.
"She's right." They all hear Logan say, he had regained consciousness.
"Welcome back brother." Trina says smirkingly.
"I never talked badly about you to Sophie. I would've given you a second chance to make up for your wrongs all you had to do was get clean." Logan stated.
"Who were you to decide that? We've all got skeletons in our closets little bro. I guess yours are just well buried, that is thanks to your lawyers and attorneys. You have everyone thinking you're better than me now, like we didn't come from the same screwed up family. And now you honestly think Veronica Mars is a better mother than I am?" Trina said angrily.
Trina raised her gun and pointed it straight at Veronica, causing Logan to scream out.
"Trina No!" Logan shouted. "Shoot me instead please!" He begged.
"Man you two must really love eachother, sacrificing your lives for the other. It's sweet almost poetic but don't worry little bro I won't kill you. I think there is someone else who would like to do the honors."She said moving towards the masked gunman.
The gun man removed his mask.
"I believe you've met my boyfriend Gory." Trina said kissing Gory Sorokin on the cheek.
"Remember I told you that you were gonna die and you said yeah one day? Well today is that day my friend." Gory said smugly leveling his gun with Logan's forehead.
"Hold on babe, before you kill him I want to let them know how we met." Trina said stopping Gory.
"Lets see, I met Gory in rehab when he came to visit his uncle and we just hit it off." Trina explained.
"Aslan Sorokin." Veronica interrupted.
"How'd you know? Oh nevermind doesn't matter anyway." Trina smiled.
"Like I was saying we hit it off so when I decided to leave the program I went to see him. We got to talking and realized we both had a common enemy. That would be you Logan, so I hired his uncle to do surveillance. I just wanted to see how Sophie was coping without me but lo and behold what do I find? Veronica Mars playing house and mothering my child. That's when Gory told me about the run in you two had as well. Then it hit me, why not kill the both of you then take Sophie back so we can start a new life together." Trina finished with a smile.
"Now that we're done playing catch up can we go ahead and kill them? I say off the blonde first, that way your brother here will have nothing left to live for and he'll practically beg me to kill him." Gory said almost sadistically.
"Alright, sweet dreams Veronica Mars." Trina said cocking her gun.
Veronica turned to Logan where the two shared a look. She let a tear fall then she closed her eyes to await her fate. Right as Trina was about to pull the trigger, a crashing sound was heard followed by Weevil flying through the window tackling Trina to the ground.
Gory lets off a couple rounds at Weevil before his gun jams one hitting him in the shoulder. Logan took this opportunity to go after him, fighting like mad men the two stumble through the broken window outside. Logan grabbed a lawn chair and smashed it in Gorys face rendering him unconscious.
Back inside Veronica had Trina cuffed to stair rail. She went over to check on Weevil seeing that he was hurt.
"Weevil are you okay?" She asked the tatted biker.
"I'm fine, I'm fine. It grazed me I'll be okay." He said flashing her a smile.
"You saved my life thank you." Veronica said genuinely.
"No problem chica, I called for backup they're on the way." He added.
They heard Trina laughing and rambling incoherently. Veronica got up and headed her way.
"Where's Sophie you crazy bitch?" Veronica said delivering a slap to Trina.
To her dismay Trina didn't say anything which infuriated Veronica even more. Before V could deliver another well deserved blow to Trina, Logan walked in carrying Sophie. Who ran up to Veronica and hugged her tightly, Logan joined his two girls for a family hugged.
The paramedics and police arrived shortly and took their statements. Weevil refused to go the hospital saying he's been hurt worse, Gory regained consciousness and was taken into custody. Trina was sent to a pyschiatric facility pending an evaluation before she could be sent to prison.
"Weevil I want to thank you for saving my family's life, if it wasnt for you we'd all be dead. I can never thank you enough, you have my undying gratitude." Logan says sincerely.
"And to think Mr. Daniels said all I would ever to amount was pumping your gas, I bet saving your life wasnt in the cards." Weevil stated causing him and Logan to share a laugh.
"Just how did you know that Trina and Gory were here?" Veronica questioned.
"I didn't, you were late to the office this morning which is not like you. So I figured something was wrong, when I got here I saw an unknown car in the driveway I ran the tags and it came back a match for our Aslan guy. I called backup but I couldn't just wait, I saw through the window the crazy red head pointing a gun at you. So I said a prayer and crashed through." Weevil smiled feeling proud.
"I don't take you for much of a hugger but someone wanted to thank you personally." Logan said with Sophie in tow.
Weevil knelt down to face the six year old. Sophie walked up to him and said "Thank you for saving my family, you are now my hero." She then gave him the tightest hug she could causing him to wince due to his injury but he smiled through it and hugged her back.
