Summary: It's been two months and Veronica gets some disturbing news.
Disclaimer: They aren't mine.
Veronica was sitting in her room crying. She had done a lot of that since Logan left, but this was for a completely different reason. She had taken an EPT test, well actually she had taken five and each one was positive. She knew that the baby was Logan's. She had no idea what to do though. Should she tell Logan? What would she tell her father? She hadn't spoken to Logan since the day he left, she'd picked up her phone many times to dial his number, but she had never fully completed her call. Every so often her phone would ring and when she glanced at the caller id it was an unrecognizable number. She knew deep in her heart that it was Logan, he never left a voicemail, but she knew it was him. She had looked up the number; it was in Newport, so she knew he was still in California. She heard a shrill ring come from bag, glancing at the caller id on her phone Wallace's name flashed.
"Hey Wallace," she said, trying her best to sound chipper.
"Hey Veronica, can you give me a ride to school in the morning?" he asked.
"Um actually I wasn't planning on going. I have something to do," she said.
"Come on V, my mom needs the car," Wallace tells her.
"Fine I'll give you a ride, but I'm not staying," Veronica tells him.
"Thanks. I'll see you tomorrow," Wallace says.
"You're welcome. Bye Wallace."
Veronica pulled out a phone book to lookup a clinic. She had to know for sure if she was indeed pregnant with Logan's child. She found a clinic in the phonebook and called to see if she could get an appointment for the next day. Luckily for her she was able to get one for ten o clock the next day. It was times like these she wished she had someone she could talk too. She knew that Wallace would listen, but he had no idea what it was like. She could talk to Meg, but it might leak out to Duncan. Since Logan's surprise party Meg and Duncan had dealt with some issues and ultimately decided to stay together. What the hell? I might as well talk to Meg. It's not like Meg is a gossip. She picked up her phone and dialed Meg's number.
"Hey Meg. It's Veronica. Can you come over to my place? I really need to talk to someone," she said.
"Sure. I'll be there in about thirty minutes," Meg replied.
A half an hour later Veronica heard a knock on her door. When she opened Meg immediately asked her what was wrong.
"Come in to my room," Veronica said, leading the way. When Veronica closed the door to her room she started crying again. Meg had never seen Veronica so vulnerable except at the trial for Aaron.
"What is it?" Meg asked.
"I'm well I think I'm um- pregnant," Veronica half-whispered.
"Oh my god. Are you sure?" Meg asked.
"I took five EPT's, all were positive," Veronica said, trying to gather herself.
"You should go to the doctor to know for sure," Meg told her.
"Well I have an appointment tomorrow morning," Veronica said.
"Do you want me to go with you?" Meg asked.
"Really? You'd go?" Veronica asked.
"Yeah if you want me too," Meg said.
"Thanks. I'd really appreciate it," Veronica said.
"Ok. Um Veronica is it um Logan's?" Meg asked.
Veronica nodded.
"So are you gonna find him to tell him?" Meg asked.
"I don't know," Veronica said.
"He has to know Veronica," Meg said.
"Hey I promised Duncan we could meet to do some homework. Will you be okay?" Meg asked.
"Yeah go have fun. I gotta give Wallace a ride to school tomorrow so I'll meet you in the quad," Veronica said.
"Okay. Bye Veronica."
"Bye Meg. Thanks."
The next morning after dropping Wallace off Veronica went to find Meg on the quad. She saw her standing with Duncan. Veronica was wondering if Meg had told Duncan, when Meg turned around and waved her over.
"Hey we got a couple hours, do you mind if we run by my dad's office?" Veronica asked.
"No that's cool."
"So what are you two up to today?" Duncan asked.
Meg was silent and looked at Veronica waiting for her to respond. Veronica nodded at Meg for her to tell Duncan.
"Well Veronica has a doctor's appointment and I said I'd go with. I'll meet you tonight though," Meg said giving him a quick kiss as she and Veronica turned to leave.
Once they were in Veronica's new slightly used Saturn, she turned to Meg, "Thanks for you know not telling him."
"It's not my place and besides you aren't even sure it's true," Meg said.
"I guess you're right," Veronica said.
They pulled up in front of Mars Investigations. Once they were in the office Veronica pulled out her cell and connected to the Internet. She typed in the number Logan had been calling from and got an address. She shut down the computer and she and Meg headed off to the doctor. When they got there Veronica asked Meg to come in the room with her. When the doctor told her that the results of the test were positive Veronica almost fell off the exam table she was sitting on.
Well I guess I'm taking a road trip to Newport.
