A/N: Josielynn - Glad you liked the chapter even though you didn't like the storyline on the show. I will tell you that I'm diverging from the way it was written and hopefully people will like what I came up with! MelinaFan1989 - Glad you loved it! People seem to not like the whole Madison thing... amgonyea - Yep! They can't always be happy together. Guest - It may take a little convincing for Veronica to listen to Logan. KatieDean0343 - I'm not writing this exactly like what happened on the show. You know Veronica Mars wouldn't be quite as good without the drama somewhere!
Chapter 4
Veronica had driven to Dog Beach to think after abandoning the lingerie she'd been considering buying for her night with Logan. The thought of him having sex with Madison was making her feel nauseous. She sat there crying. She thought about going back to the apartment, but she wasn't sure what time her dad would be home and she didn't need him to come home to find her crying. It wouldn't help the situation for him to get mad at Logan before she told him her news.
She realistically knew really shouldn't be upset with Logan. He did tell her that he hooked up with someone in Aspen and completely regretted what happened. The fact that it had been Madison had freaked her out. Logan knew how much she hated Madison. He knew she was partly responsible for Cassidy raping her. How could he sleep with her knowing that? He probably thought she'd never find out who he'd slept with but considering Madison had a big mouth that was stupid of him to think.
The longer she sat there thinking about what Logan had done the more upset she got. She couldn't stop crying. She was getting too worked up and it wasn't good for her or the baby. She needed to calm down but that didn't seem to be happening any time soon.
She pulled out her phone and called Mac. Normally she would've called Wallace but she needed to talk to someone who'd known Madison as long as she had.
"What's wrong?" Mac asked when she answered her phone and heard Veronica crying.
"I need to talk to someone," Veronica said, trying to reign in her tears. "Can you come meet me at Dog Beach?"
"Yeah," Mac said. "I'll be there as soon as I can."
Mac was worried. She'd never heard Veronica crying and could tell something was seriously wrong.
"Hey," Mac said moving to sit next to Veronica on the sand.
"Thanks for coming," Veronica said wiping the last of the tears from her face.
"What's going on?" Mac said.
"I don't even know where to start," Veronica said. "Everything's a mess now."
Mac just sat there not saying anything. She wrapped her arm around Veronica's shoulder since she was unsure what to do to help her best friend.
"Logan had sex with Madison while they were in Aspen," Veronica told her, finally calm enough to talk about things with Mac.
"Wow," Mac said, surprised at the information Veronica had just divulged. "How'd you find out? I thought you and Logan had broken up."
"Madison told me," Veronica explained.
"Of course she did," Mac said, feeling bad for her best friend. Madison liked to gloat and telling Veronica that she'd slept with Logan probably thrilled her. Madison loved to hurt Veronica and that news seemed to have broken her.
"Logan told me he slept with someone," Veronica told her, "but he didn't tell me it was Madison."
"Wait, when did you talk to Logan?" Mac asked.
"I went over to the suite yesterday," Veronica said. "I needed to talk to him. We ended up making up and while we were in bed I asked him if he'd been with anyone while we were apart. I figured he'd hooked up with someone and he confirmed it. I wasn't bothered by it until Madison told me it was her."
"Damn, you weren't kidding about everything being a mess," Mac said.
"It gets worse," Veronica let her know. "The reason I had to talk to Logan was because I had to tell him I'm pregnant."
Mac's eyes got really big when she heard what Veronica had said. She couldn't believe Veronica was pregnant.
"I think you need to talk to Logan and let him explain," Mac said, trying to be the voice of reason. She felt horrible for the situation Veronica was in but she knew that avoiding Logan wouldn't work. She'd seen firsthand how much it hurt Logan when Veronica ignored him. Plus they were going to have a baby, so avoiding each other was going to be impossible.
"I'm supposed to go over there tonight," Veronica mentioned, "but I'm not sure I even want to be in the same room as him."
The two of them were silent for a minute. "Every time I close my eyes I imagine what they did together," Veronica revealed.
"I can't even imagine what you're going through," Mac said. "How long have you known that you're pregnant?"
"I found out the night Mercer and Moe got caught," Veronica recounted.
"I'm guessing since you just told Logan that no one else knows," Mac said.
"You're only the second person I've told," Veronica replied.
"Well, I'm honored," Mac informed her.
"Thanks for coming Mac," Veronica said. "I think I'm gonna text Logan and tell him I'm not coming over. I need more time to think about everything."
"That's probably for the best," Mac said. "If you went over there now I think you'd both end up saying things you'd regret later."
"I think you're right," Veronica said moving to get up.
"Call me later if you need to talk more," Mac said following her back to the parking lot.
"I will," Veronica assured her. She hugged Mac before moving to get in her car.
Veronica texted Logan when she got home to let him know she wasn't going over there.
From Veronica's Cell: I'm not coming over.
From Logan's Cell: Why?
Veronica hesitated before responding.
From Veronica's Cell: I don't think I'd be good company tonight.
From Logan's Cell: Are you ok?
From Veronica's Cell: No, but I need some time alone.
Logan began to worry after her last response.
From Logan's Cell: Call me later?
From Veronica's Cell: I'll talk to you tomorrow.
After the last text she sent she turned off her phone. She didn't want to talk to him, or anyone else for that matter. She decided to go curl up on her bed and read, hoping she'd get lost in her book and stop thinking about what Madison had told her.
A/N: Sorry this chapter is so short! The next one's pretty short too, but I'm going to be nice and post it either tomorrow or the following day because of that :)
