Veronica and Logan sat on the couch, enjoying the Mei Lei Kong Chinese food Logan had ordered. They sat in silence, the sound of Rianna's breathing from the baby monitor being their soundtrack. When they were finished eating, Veronica decided it was time they figured things out between each other.

"Logan?"

"Yeah?"

"I think we have some things to figure out."

Logannodded in agreement. "You're right."

"First, the- this thing between us. Are we dating now? Are we just friends? Or are we just Rianna's appointed guardians?"

"Veronica, you know I still love you. And I think you still love me too. But Duncan only left a few days ago. I don't want to rush you into a relationship you can't handle right now."

Veronica just leaned in and kissed Logan on the lips, letting the kiss be her answer.

"I'm taking that as a yes, you want to be my girlfriend?"

"Yes. Of course I do. Until you started your destructive behavior, last summer was the best time of my life. I want us to go back to that. But before we do, we have to discuss some other things… like what are we going to do with Rianna while we're at school? February Vacation ends next Monday."

"Well… we could send her to a day-care but then again she's just a newborn. Maybe a nanny… what about your dad?"

"I guess he could take her to the office but what about when he goes out of town chasing a bail-jumper? He's gone a lot."

"Guess a nanny it is then. We still have a few more days to find one. How bout tomorrow?"

"Sounds great. And Logan?"

"Yeah Veronica?"

"There isn't anyone else I'd rather co-parent with than you." And with that, Veronica kissed him again and things began to become heated. Veronica and Logan headed to Logan's bedroom and didn't come out all night…

Veronica woke up naked in Logan's room next to a sleeping naked Logan. 'So much for us sleeping in separate bedrooms.' Veronica thought to herself and cuddled up next to Logan.

Logan and Veronica woke up 2 hours later and decided to take a joint shower. After their shower, they both got dressed and went to wake up Rianna. After they woke and dressed her, they both decided to head downtown to visit Keith and buy Rianna a few more things like baby food, binkies, and more diapers, since they finished the 8-pack Logan bought a few days ago. After they visited Keith, who commented on Veronica's "glow", they went to Ray's Groceries to buy the baby food and diapers for Rianna.

As they left the store, they almost collided with Cassidy and Mac, who were running some errands from her mom in which Cassidy was accompanying her. When Mac commented on Rianna, Veronica told them how Duncan had skipped town and how her appointed her and Logan as Rianna's guardians. The two of them congratulated them and Cassidy warned them to "keep Rianna away from Dickhead." The foursome laughed and Rianna let out a baby gurgle from her baby carrier. As Mac and Cassidy walked into the store, Logan and Veronica walked to his X Terra, his arm around Veronica's shoulders.

Logan and Veronica spent the next day desperately searching for a nanny to take care of Rianna. They finally settle on a young Mexican woman named Maria who had 9 brothers and sisters and was an excellent match for Rianna. They told her to show up at 7 on Monday and everyday afterwards and she could leave when they returned from school. After Maria left, Veronica placed Rianna and her bassinet in the living room temporarily as they moved Logan's things into Duncan's old bedroom, which was larger, and put Rianna's thing into Logan's old bedroom.

The following Monday, Logan left Rianna with Maria and headed to Sunset Cliffs Apartment to pick up Veronica. When they arrived at Neptune High, Logan parked the X-Terra and went around to open Veronica's car door. He took her hand and they walked together through the parking lot to Neptune High. As they walked through the halls, everyone stared at them in shock. Logan walked Veronica to her locker, then gave her a chaste kiss on the lips and headed off to his locker. Wallace strolled up behind the two and opened his locker next to Veronica's.

"Hey Superfly. You and Logan back together? What happened to Duncan?"

"Umm lets see, he skipped town and left his and Meg's daughter Rianna in our care. Logan and me are now instant parents. Then me and Logan grew closer over vacation and here we are."

"Damn girl! You got too much drama in your life."

"True dat."
