Caesar's Palace: Alphabet Game 2.1 - Foresight
If Veronica had any foresight at all, she probably would have skipped everything to do with Duncan. She even probably would have ignored Lilly telling her that Logan wasn't her type, but more Lilly's.
In fact, if it hadn't been for Lilly, Veronica probably wouldn't have looked twice at Duncan. Veronica's first real crush had been Logan, but Lilly had already claimed him for herself.
Veronica didn't dare fight her best friend for the boy, but maybe she should have.
Imagine the heartache Veronica might have been spared if she had dated Logan. Imagine the heartache Logan might have been spared.
Then maybe Duncan wouldn't have raped—yes, raped—her. Logan wouldn't have been cheated on with his own father. And since Veronica wouldn't have dared have an affair with Aaron, Logan's girlfriend wouldn't have been killed.
The two of them might have been less damaged, less dysfunctional.
But now, as Veronica looks at Logan in his Navy uniform, her heart pounds.
He brings her close to his body and presses an intoxicating kiss against her lips.
Yes, the road might have been easier if they simply chose each other at the very beginning, but at least they finally got it right.
