Veronica's POV

3 weeks later...

Veronica sat on the floor of the girls bathroom, throwing up into the toilet bowl. This had been going on for the last week. Today, she was going to do something she dreaded. She was going to take a pregnancy test. She hoped it would be negative. She began thinking of what she came to refer to as 'The Mistake'. Ever since then, things had been weird between her and Logan. He avoided her in the halls and looked away whenever she was with Duncan. It wasn't as if they had been buddy-buddy or anything before but at least before he would say "hi" or at least smile at her whenever she caught him looking at her. Now he glanced away when Veronica noticed him or saw him.

She finished throwing up and flushed the toilet. She splashed her face with cold water and headed outside the bathroom to Duncan, who was holding her bag.

"You OK?" he asked worriedly

"Peachy keen, jelly bean." she replied smiling up at him.

He kissed the top of her head and they walked to Journalism together.

Later that day...

Veronica arrived home from Neptune Pharmacy with the EPT test and a Star magazine in hand. She had needed to buy something other than the pregnancy test. She headed to her bathroom and followed the directions on the box. She did this three times and each test confirmed her worst fears: She was pregnant with Logan Echolls's baby.

The next day...

Veronica sat on her couch watching Days Of Our Lives at 1pm in the afternoon. She had called in sick to school with a stomach bug and asked Duncan to get her homework. She had spent last night crying her eyes out till she ran out of tears. She had finished the box of EPT tests and each one had said positive. There was no way to deny it. Her life was now a fuckin' soap opera. All she could do was wish that she had never went to the New Years Eve party.

2 hours later...

There was a knock on her apartment door. 'That must be Duncan with my homework. 'Thank god hes here'. She opened her door and was shocked to be face to face with Logan Echolls.

Logan's POV

'Holy shit, Veronica looks like crap.' was the first thing that came to his mind when she opened her door. Veronica was clad in a bathrobe, her hair was a mess and her eyes were red and puffy from crying.

"Uh hey Veronica. I know you were expecting Duncan, but he had to stay for an emergency Student Council meeting." Logan sputtered out.

Veronica just stood, staring at him. He handed her the bag in his hand filled with her books and assignments. She took it and threw it on her couch. She stared at her slippered feet.

"Veronica are you OK?"

Veronica's POV

"Veronica are you OK?" The words rang in her head. They weresugar-coated with concern. 'Oh yeah. I'm OK. Its just that I'm pregnant with your baby and I cheated on my boyfriend with his best friend. Sure, everythings just peachy.' she felt like saying. She stared at him and told him, "I'm just peachy, thanks for asking."

She stared down at her slippers, silence enveloping between them.

"Umm Logan? Could you come in for a second? I need to tell you something."
