Sorry it took a while. Harry Potter Mania is now officially here. Hope next one won't take as long. So enjoy, and let me know what you think.

------------------------------------

I maybe got one hour tops sleep that night. Crying on and off. My mind never stopping. First Duncan, now Logan's dad. But most of all, my thoughts were consumed by Logan.

Why would Logan hide those tapes? Was he trying to protect his father? A chill runs through my whole body just thinking about Aaron. And here comes the goosebumps and the tears. Thank god for Logan running his hand slowly up and down my arms from time to time. Really helps calm me.

Finally around Six O'clock I couldn't take lying still anymore. I needed to get up and move around. I was too stiff. Slowly I make my way up into a sitting position. But actually getting up is harder than it looks. I'm finally able to get up off of the bed, but standing straight is a different story. I walk over to the bathroom and got into the shower. Worse decision I ever made.

After my attempt at a shower, I wrap the towel around me and make my way back into my bedroom. This time I'm able to stand up just about straight. I grab some clothes, and make my way back into the bathroom to change. When I walk out with a bottle in my hand, I make my way over to a sleeping Logan and sit down next to him.

He looks so peaceful. I gently run my hand against his cheek, and a slight smile plays at his lips. That causes me to smile. My palm grazes against his lips, and he gently kisses my palm.

"Morning sleepy head." I lean over to kiss him on his forehead. I pull back and place the bottle in front of his face with a pleading/teasing look on my face. He smiles and grabs the bottle as he sits up. I turn around and lift the back of my shirt up as he rubs the stuff all over my back. This time I wince from the coldness of the liquid.

When Logan finishes, we make our way into the kitchen to have some breakfast. All morning, I had been unusually quite. Logan as well. Not much was said. Finally, as I was laying on my side with my head on Logan's lap, I finally talked.

"Why did you have those tapes?"

"What tapes?"

"The tapes of Lilly and Aaron together. What were you doing with them?"

I could feel Logan stiffen. "How do you know about those tapes?"

Busted! Technically I wasn't snooping. I was just...browsing. Yea right Veronica. How do you explain that to someone.

"It was an accident. I was looking around in your closet, when I tripped over the box the tapes were hidden in. I figured they were tapes of Lilly, and that maybe they would help me understand her better. I'm sorry. I had no idea."

Logan continues to stroke my hair. "Well that's what happens when you go looking where you're not supposed to." I hear an edge to his voice.

Hey! What's with the insults? Are we feeling bitter here? Well fine. If that's how it's going to be, two can play at that game.

"I get it if you were trying to protect your dad from anyone trying to find out, but it doesn't make sense. How could you know all this time and never do anything about it?"

"What makes you think I never did anything about it? You don't know what my relationship with that man is like. You can't judge me like that." Logan starts to get defensive.

Sigh. Men. I swear. Always protecting that ego of theirs. And for what? We woman always end up finding out eventually.

"So why don't you tell me? I need to know more about Aaron. And his relations with everyone."

It's just like pulling teeth. Why is he so defensive?

"What's there to know? The guy's an asshole. To everyone else, he's a great guy. But you saw first hand what he's really like." His hand starts to ball into a fist in my hair.

"Logan stop. You're hurting me."

"Sorry. He just pisses me off." He unclenched his fist and puts his hand on my arm.

He's dodging my questions. Why won't he just be honest with me? How to get answers. Do I need a different approach?

"So what do we do now that Aaron has the tapes? If he destroys them, we can't use it for evidence later if we need it."

Logan's quite for a while. "Well I can't just show up. He'd kill me. I know he has a photo shoot today. Maybe we can sneak into the house and get them back."

Now it's my turn to be quite. That sounds like a good idea. I hope he just put them away for now. Didn't actually get around to the whole burning thing.

"Ok. Let's do that. Do you know what time he goes?"

"Nine O'clock. It's Eight now. We have an hour."

"Good that means we still have time to talk. That means I ask questions, and you answer. And vice versa. That's called a conversation."

"Ha ha. I think I know what a conversation is. And I thought we were having one."

"No that was not a conversation. That was not a conversation because I was not getting the right answers from you. Why are you being so shady?"

"Shady? I'm being shady? What the hell are you talking about? I answered you're questions. Their's nothing shady about that."

"You gave answers, but they weren't the right ones. Why won't you just tell me the truth? I'm here to help you remember?"

Next thing I know, I'm sitting up straight as Logan lifts me up and gets off the couch. I fall back down as he lets go of me.

"Oof. What was that for?" I try to sit back up.

"We need to get ready if were to go back to Casa de Echolls."

-----------------------------------

"I see one of the cars is missing. That means he's gone. Let's go." Logan says as we pull into the garage.

We get out of the car and carefully make our way into the house. Quietly walk into the house.

"Morning Mr. Echolls. You're up early. And I see you've brought a guest." We both jump about a foot in the air. So much for being undetected.

"Mrs. Navarro. We were just on our way up to my room." Navarro? That sounds familiar.

"Would you like some breakfast dear?"

"No thanks. Were busy." Logan says rudely. I smack him on the back of the head.

"Thank you Mrs. Navarro, but we already ate. Thanks for the offer. Were just going to watch some t.v."

Logan gives me a dirty look from smacking him, and I smile back sweetly. We make our way upstairs.

"Should we split up?" I whisper to Logan's back.

"No I think we should stick together. Wouldn't want you snooping where you shouldn't be."

My jaw opens with shock. What is with him? Is he trying to start a fight? "Are you hiding something from me? Something you don't want me to see?"

"Let's start here in my parent's room." Logan ignores my comment. Fine.

We look around the room in silence. The annoyance rolling off me in waves. After not finding anything, we make our way into an area with glass sliding doors. Inside the room is rows of belts. Without out even realizing it, Logan and I both shudder.

He slides the door open, and steps inside. I wrap my arms around my waist as I watch him look through the closet.

"Bingo!" I hear Logan say from where he is. He come back out and closes the door. He holds up his hand with the three tapes. We make our way back to Logan's car where he drives back to my house.

------------------

"What do we do with the tapes now?" I ask Logan wondering what his answer would be. We were back in my living room now.

"I hold onto them until I decide what to do with them." He stares at me as if daring me to say anything differently. I stare back.

"I think it's enough evidence to go to the Sheriff's Department." I tell him.

Logan snorts. "You don't even know if he killed Lilly. Just because he was sleeping with her doesn't mean he killed her. There's no proof of him doing it."

"Why are you so quick to jump on me? I thought you hated you're father. Why are you defending him?"

"I'm just trying to be realistic. Lamb doesn't care about things like that. He won't reopen the case just because we have tapes of him screwing my girlfriend."

Ouch. I visibly flinch at the girlfriend comment. "What is it we should do then?" I ask quietly.

He stops. He looks sorry. "I think we should wait. At least until we can get some more evidence."

I huff. "Fine we'll do it you're way. For now."

Just then the phone rings. I get up and answer it.

"Hello?"

"Hey dad."

"Yes I got you're note."

"I understand. It's part of you're job."

"I'll be fine by myself. It's not like it's the first time or that I'm like 5 years old. I can handle it."

"Dad. I know better than to have Logan here without any supervision. That's why we go to his house."

"No you don't need anyone to come check up on me. I have backup with me. He'll take care of me."

"Love you too dad. See you in a few days."

I hang up the phone and try not to roll my eyes. I look at Logan just in time to see him get up from the couch and make his way over to me.

"Awe is Poppa Bear worried wittle Veronica Mars can't take care of herself. Is he afraid of the big bad Logan Echolls?" Logan teases as he comes up to me and kissed me lightly on the lips.

"Now this is more like it." I kiss him harder on the lips.

---------------------------

Evangaline b: I'm a LoVe junkie as well :) I thought I would reverse Veronica and Logan's roll for a sec. Lol.

QueenCate: Thanks. It was an interesting thought. I figured that is what Aaron is most known for doing. Whipping people with his belt. He does it to Logan, and he did it too Trina's boyfriend. Why not Veronica. As for not killing Veronica, he would have done more, but Logan intercepted.

Simply Lily: Lmao ooo Logan as nurse...(stop it Heather. Get mind out of gutter.) Lmao. Veronica wasn't all "YOUR DAD SLEPT WITH LILLY" because she was reeling in shock. She didn't really have time to react before Aaron came in. As for Aaron destroying the tapes, well I hope you like the twist I threw in.

Twisted3ljw: I'm glad you liked that way better. I know you didn't like that chapter, but the fact that you gave it a chance and had me work on it some more, really means a lot to me ;) Hope you enjoyed you're Harry Potter...TOLD YOU NOT TO DOUBT ME!
