The next day...

Veronica's POV

I drove to the Echolls mansion, through the wrought iron gates and up the cobblestone driveway. I rang the doorbell and waited. An old Hispanic woman opened the door.

"Yes? How can I help you?" she asked

I stuttered, "Ummm I was hoping to speak with Aaron and Lynn Echolls."

"Yes, si. Come in and I will go get them." she said nodding, then scurried off.

Veronica walked into the living room and was admiring the artwork and statues until Lynn came in.

"Hello. Veronica right? The girl from the hospital?" Lynn asked

She nodded and Lynn motioned to the couch. "Sit, make yourself comfortable. I'm sorry to say Aaron won't be joining us, he's in a conference in LA. So Veronica? What is this visit about?"

Veronica glanced down at her shoes. "Ummm well... I'm pregnant..."

Lynn gave her a sympathetic look. "Oh poor dear..."

"And its Logan's..." Veronica whispered quietly, but just loud enough for Lynn to hear.

"What? Are you sure it's Logan's?" Lynn asked frantically

Veronica nodded quietly. "I've only done IT with one person: Logan."

"Does Logan know?"

"Yes, I told him last night...before Duncan attacked him...that was why Duncan attacked him, you know? I was dating Duncan but on New Years Eve, Logan was drunk and I was...well lonely. And we... and now I..." Veronica began drifting off and then began crying.

Lynn walked over to her and held her tight while Veronica just sobbed.

Logan's POV

Logan sat in his hospital bed, looking at the bruises in the shape of hand prints forming on his neck until Lilly stormed in.

"Why the hell did you cheat on me?" Lilly said loudly in a shrill voice

"Why did I cheat on you? I could ask you the same question. Duncan told me that he stumbled onto you and your SKI INSTRUCTOR having sex in the guest cabin over Christmas break. And don't try to feed me that shit that you've never cheated on me before that. I know things Lilly. People see you and they tell me. So if you don't mind, I'm gonna go to sleep now.?" And with that, Logan turned onto his side and closed his eyes until he heard footsteps and the bulky hospital door close.


A/N I know people wanted to know what would happen when Lynn and Aaron found out. But I'm evil and I didn't add Aaron in. I have a trick up my sleeve thats gonna rock your socks off!
