A/N: In this one she doesn't read it!


(Veronica's POV)

I sat on my bed looking down at the letter in my hands. Backup had followed me into the room and plopped himself beside me. Cassidy's words flowed into my head He said if you love him then read it right away, but if you don't then, in his words, 'feed it to your viscous killer'

And to be brutally honest, I didn't love Logan Echolls. It's that simple.

I turned to Backup and decided not to let him eat the letter. He was on a strict diet. So I threw it out.


Logan stood up on the ledge. It was 8:27 and he was certain that she wasn't coming. He started to cry as he realized that he was truly alone in the world. At least when he jumped he would be with his mother. He came closers to the edge to his toes her hanging off.

"Fuck the time," he said "Let's just get this over with!" It was 8:29.

He was gonna jump on the count of three. One… two… thr-

"Logan?"

Logan turned to see Duncan who just pulled over.

"What the hell are you doing? Get down from there!" Duncan yelled to him.

"Duncan, take good care of Veronica." was all Logan said.

"What? What are you talking about?"

"I have nothing left,"

"Logan,"

Logan looked down at his watch. It just turned 8:31.

"Damn, man. You made me late!"

"LOGAN, NO!"

Logan jumped of the Coronado Bridge. On his way down he whispered his final words that no one else would hear.

"I love you, Veronica."


Duncan reported the suicide to the police. Veronica rushed to the police station when she heard Duncan was down there, but she didn't know why.

"Duncan, what happened?"

"He's dead, Veronica."

"Who?"

"Logan, he jumped of the Coronado Bridge."

At that second, Veronica Mars, the girl who claimed that she didn't love Logan, fell into a chair and cried.

HR

An hour later Cassidy came to the station and gave Lamb Logan's suicide note.

It simple said. "I have nothing left in the world. I'm now in a better place with my mother. Anywhere is better than that hell you call living. –Logan Echolls"

Cassidy came up to Veronica and said, "It's all your fault!"

"What?"

"Tell me Veronica, did you throw the letter out?"

"Yes but what does that have to do with-"

"Wow, Mars! I thought you were a great detective! I suggest you go home and read it. Maybe then you will understand!' Cassidy stormed out of the station. Veronica was shocked that he actually confronted her like that.

"You ready to go home" Duncan asked as he came out of the interrogation room.

"Yeah,"


All the information was released to the press and Neptune was buzzing with new that one of the rich 09er boys actually committed suicide.

Veronica went straight to her room and got the letter from the trash basket. She opened and read it aloud.


My Dearest Veronica,

If you are reading this, then you really do love me. Or you don't love me and you were just curious to read what this letter says. Or you have heard what has happened to me when you didn't read this letter when you received it. After thinking about all of these reasons that makes me feel I a lot /I better. Now, seriously Veronica I really hope you are reading this because you do love me cause I love you with all of my heart, body and soul.

Time to get down to business. When you broke up with me, you didn't really know what I was going through. I'm ready to admit it now. You know I had to deal with the repercussions of my father's arrest, and the trail with the bridge thing. But I also had to be strong for you. I know how macho man of me but it is true. You needed a strong shoulder to lean on and I had to be that guy. I went out with Dick and Beaver because I needed to relieve some stress and you saw it was a bunch of nonsense. But there is some other way I dealt with all of this. I am a cutter. That's right I take a blade to my wrist and cut it.

Now you are with Duncan Kane. My ex best friend and my dead girlfriend's brother. I am so jealous of him. He gets to gets so close to you, he gets to hold you, he gets to talk to you, he gets to kiss you and I hate him for all of it.

To be the honest this is the second draft of this letter. The first was filled with a harsh ultimatum and cruel words but I realized that I love you too much to put you through that. I have nothing left, nothing! But you can change that. If you opened this letter right away, I am currently sitting on the ledge of the Coronado Bridge. Beaver is going to call as soon as he leaves your house. After I receive that call I'm going to jump in thirty minutes from then, for real this time. You are the only one that's going to save me. (This may seem like a harsh ultimatum but it not, it's your choice. I was gonna jump anyway but I decided to give you a say.) Please Veronica, only come if you love me, if you don't love me, I have nothing worth living for.

'As the young man sits on the bridge, we cross fade to his one and only true love. She sits and holds his letter filled with compassion, love and confessions. She sighs and makes her decision to…'

You finish the script Veronica. You're the director; it's your call…

I Luv You Beary Much!

Logan Echolls


The memorial for Logan was a solemn gathering. Duncan, as president of Neptune High, had arranged for a wall of all the Neptune students who died unexpectedly. There were so many names on that wall. There was an engraving on the wall that said, "LOGAN ECHOLLS- Always had your back." There was also a picture of him with his famous smirk.

Most of students came to show respect for their fellow student. Trina and Aaron Echolls, who was escorted in chains, even came to say a final goodbye. Once everyone was gone, Veronica came up the wall and kissed Logan's picture.

"I'm sorry, Logan. I'm sorry it took me till now to realize that I do love you." She kissed the picture again and stood up.

"As the young man sits on the bridge, we cross fade to his one and only true love. She sits and holds his letter filled with compassion, love and confessions. She sighs and makes her decision to let him go. After the funeral she confess her love, knowing he hears her in heaven. She continues to live, for him while he becomes her guardian angel."

"That's my call Logan, and I am gonna live for you." She kissed the picture one last time and said, "I love you,"

She smiled and walked away knowing that his response was "I love you, too"
