"Veronica, we need to talkā¦" he said as she looked into the distance.
'Oh boy, here comes the breakup' Veronica thought.
"Look, I've been thinking that we both are going on different tracks, so," before he could finish Veronica cut him off.
"Logan, I get it, this can't work anymore, it's over, we're done. Thanks for breaking up with me this way, at my graduation. What a perfect end to my years at this school," she said as tears fell from her eyes.
"Veronica, let me finish will you," he said grabbing her hand before she could walk away.
"Logan, I know what you are going to say," she said as she turned her head.
"Actually, no you don't," he replied as she turned her head to look at him.
"Fine, go on," she said with tears still in her eyes. At that second he pulled something out of his pocket and bent down on one knee. He then opened the case and showed her the ring.
"You're out of your mind Logan," was the only thing Veronica could say.
"Can you let me explain?" he asked her. She opened her mouth to say something but she was speechless so she just nodded.
"Look at what we have gone through these past two years. We have lost loved ones and found out things that we did not want to know, but I know I couldn't have gotten through all of it without you. We have gone through so many things that even people five times our age haven't gone through. We have the rest of our lives to live and it's going to come up with many different challenges and I don't think I would be able to face them without you in my life."
"Logan, you're out of your mind, I mean we have two different ideas of a future ahead of us. I'm staying in Neptune while you want to get out of here as soon as possible," she replied to him as she crouched down next to him.
"I was planning on leaving, but I changed my mind. Veronica, I want to be where ever you are. And if that means I have to stay here in Neptune, then well hell, I'll stay in Neptune."
"Logan, we are not even in our twenties, and we're barely adults and you expect us to get married. That's a huge step and a huge decision to make at this age."
"Veronica, I'm not looking to marry you right away. We can wait years and decades if you want but all I want to know is that you are mine and always will be."
Veronica then stood up and Logan followed her.
She took a deep breath and said, "Logan, I can't, I'm sorry, I just can't make this decision right now." She looked into his eyes; she could sense how much he had saddened just by those words.
"Fine, you can tell me in a few days, I'm not going to put any pressure on this," he said as he kissed her forehead and started to walk away.
"Actually Logan," she said as he turned around, "I was thinking I could let you know in a few years." With this Logan shock his head and walked away.
"Logan, I'm so sorry," she screamed after him. Duncan then walked up to her.
"Hey, are you and Logan okay?" he asked.
"I don't think so," she replied.
"I'm sorry," he said sincerely.
"Me too," she said still glancing at the spot from where Logan had left.
"So is this a good time to tell you that I found out that Kendall's baby isn't mine?" Duncan said to Veronica.
"Actually I knew, I meant to tell you but so many things got in the way. How did you find out?"
"I told her that once she had the baby it was going for DNA testing because I wasn't going to pay child support for a baby that wasn't mine. She kinda flipped out and told me that it wasn't mine."
"Wow, so she was after you for your money. Surprise, surprise!" Veronica smirked.
"Yea, now it's the pool boy's drama." Veronica laughed.
"Well I'll be seeing you, I'm going to go see Joy," Duncan said.
"Hey can I come with you?" Veronica asked.
"Sure," he replied as they headed towards his car. On the way to the car Veronica told her father where she was going and that she would be back later. Jake and Celeste were waiting to see Duncan by his car. Celeste sneered when she saw Veronica, but Veronica didn't mind.
'If only she knew that for about a month I was carrying an heir to the Kane family' she thought as she jumped in the passenger seat. Within minutes they were off to see Joy.
Seeing Joy really opened Veronica's eyes on life. That night she had difficulty falling asleep. She kept tossing and turning. Around three o'clock she realized what she had to do. She got up out of bed, dressed and drove to Logan's house. She sat outside his house for ten minutes before she knew what she was going to say. She got out of her car and rang the doorbell. There was no answer. She rang again and again. Finally she heard someone walking down the stairs.
"Hello, Veronica is that you?"
"Oh," she said bummed out, "hey Trina, yea it's me, is Logan home?"
"Isn't a little late for a booty call Veronica Mars?" Trina replied rubbing her eyes.
"It's not a booty call Trina I need to talk to Logan, can I please come in?"
"Call it whatever you want, but I'm afraid you're not going to get some anyway?"
"Why is that?"
"Logan left about an hour ago for the Bahamas. His flight leaves in like ten minutes."
"He left, he actually left?" Veronica said as she sat on the step and buried her face in her hands.
"Yea sorry Veronica. So what's the news you have to tell him? Is it that important? Oh My God are you pregnant?" Trina said with a little gleam in her voice.
"No, God, no," Veronica replied as she ran to her car. She then tried calling his cell phone but there was no answer. 'Why doesn't this kid ever answer his phone when I really need him to?' She then threw her phone into her bag and drove off.
'I can't believe he actually left' she was thinking as she drove to the school parking lot and got out of her car. She went to go sit at the lunch tables.
'These past four years have been really interesting and this school is mostly the reason. Here is where I first kissing Duncan. Where Duncan broke up with me. Where me and Lilly shared most of our jokes. This school sponsored the car wash were I last talked to Lilly. This is the place where people disowned me but then they voted me Prom Queen a mere year later. Here is where I busted Logan by putting a bong in his locker. I also cut down Wallace from the flag pole here. This is where I got most of my experience for being a private eye. This is the place where Logan and I would make out in the bathrooms. This is where I got busted for making fake ID's. This is the place where Logan purposed to me and this is also the place where I made true friends.'
Suddenly there was a hand on her shoulder. Before she turned around she said, "I was hoping it would be you." She then turned around to see Wallace and she frowned.
"Well that was some greeting, first you say you were hoping it were me and then you frown, thanks a lot Veronica."
"I'm sorry I was expecting someone else? What are you doing here?"
"I followed you. I heard you leave and I got up. I looked at my laptop and saw that you had gone to Logan's. Then ten minutes later I saw that you left and you were here. So I came to check on you to see if you were all right."
"Yea, I'm fine. And how may I ask did you see that I was here?"
"I placed a tracker on your car. I mean my step-dad is a private detective and all." This made Veronica laugh.
"So are you going to come home any time soon?"
"Yea, just give me five minutes. I'm just reliving the past four years of my life at this school. You know I really thought I hated this school, but now it doesn't seem so bad."
"Yea, I know, well I'm going to go back to bed, I'll see you soon."
"Yea, I just need ten more minutes before I leave."
"Okay, no problem, see ya," Wallace said as he headed toward his car.
Veronica just sat there remembering all the good times and bad times she had faced here. Five minutes later she felt a tap on her shoulder.
"I told you Wallace I'm going to leave in five more minutes."
"Since when did my name change to Wallace?" With this Veronica turned around wrapped her hands around him.
"Logan, aren't you supposed to be on a plane now?"
"Yea, well Trina called me to tell me that you were at the house and that you were very upset. She thought you had to tell me that you were pregnant or something. Well what was so important that you came to my house at three in the morning?"
"Logan, will you marry me?"
"No, I'm sorry," Logan said.
"What, wait, why?"
"Because we know that I am the man in this relationship," he then bent down on one knee, "I knew why you didn't say yes, it's because I never asked you, so, Veronica Mars will you marry me?"
"Of course," she said pulling him in for a kiss. He then slipped the ring onto her finger.
"I'm soon to be Mrs. Logan Echolls."
"Soon to be? Did you already plan this wedding?"
"Of course sugerpuss, I've had this planned out since last year," she replied.
"Really know?"
"Yes, so now let's go and tell everyone the good news," she said grabbing his hand as they walked off to the parking lot.
On the way to the car Veronica thought, 'And this the place where I purposed to Logan. This is the place where he said no, but then asked me to marry him. This is the place where we became engaged. This is a place that I will never forget.'
