A/N: Ok, that's the next chapter. Sorry for the spelling and grammar errors you'll find inside, but I still don't have a Beta Reader except another Frenchie who doesn't see everything.

I hope you'll like it anyway.

I know it's kinda crazy but I like my idea.

Part 5: Something not expected At All.

He felt tense being in the same room with Veronica and Hannah. He didn't know how he should act. He saw jealously and merriment in Veronica's eyes and he didn't know what he loved better, seeing she was jealous of Hannah, which meant she cared for him a little, or seeing her laughing at him, like in their old times. He wanted to kiss her right now, but he couldn't because of Hannah.

When he looked at Hannah's eyes, he saw all her love for him and he wanted to run. He really didn't know what he could say to her. He had to explain to her his situation had changed. He was back with the girl he never ceased to love and he was sorry for Hannah, but their story was a thing of the past. Before, it would be easy to break up with her, he would say "it's over" and he wouldn't notice her sorrow or care about. But now, he couldn't do this. He wasn't this jackass anymore, at least he hoped. This jackass never would be able to keep a girl like Veronica. Besides, he liked Hannah, she was a nice girl and he didn't want her to suffer. So he was in trouble.

She didn't seem to notice the weird mood filling the room. She was still looking at him with eyes full of love. Logan was glad Veronica was here. Her presence prevented Hannah from canoodling with him. He needed to find something quickly.

"I have to go," said Veronica reluctantly, watching Hannah's hand on Logan's arm.

He could see she was not reassured to let him with her. He wasn't saddened to see her lack of trust in him, because he didn't really trust himself at this time, and besides he perfectly knew what would happen once she left.

"I'm coming with you." He said and get up.

"Picking my dad up?" Veronica tried, but she didn't succeed to hide her stupefaction.

"Yeah, I have something to ask him." He added quickly.

"You know, he will still refuse to marry you." She smirked.

Oh boy, he was dying to kiss this girl.

She parked her car in the street and rang the bell. A tall thin black woman opened the door.

"Yes? Can I help you?" She asked her nicely.

"Hello, Mrs. Fennel. I'm Mac, Veronica's friend."

"Sounds like I heard about you. Come in."

They came into the kitchen and Alicia opened her fridge.

"Do you want some drinks? We have orange juice, water and milk."

"Orange juice will be fine."

Alicia served her and sat on the chair opposite to her.

"I'm sorry Veronica is not here, but Wallace should come soon, if you want to wait for him."

Learning Veronica wasn't here wasn't what Mac expected and she hesitated an instant, till the door opened on Wallace.

"Here you are," said Alicia, smiling at her son. "Right on time. I have to go to work, but you have a friend. Have a nice day, and Mac, it was nice to meeting you at last."

"Thank you, Mrs. Fennel."

Alicia gone, Wallace shoved her bag on the floor, then turned and looked at Mac.

"Why are you here?"

"I was hoping to see Veronica."

"Yep, she left yesterday. She must be at Logan's now."

"Okay. I don't think I will go there."

She could hardly leave her house, so it was certainly the last place where she would set foot in.

"I don't think you should either. Besides, they probably are fully busy right now, catching up their lost time."

"Probably." She knew Veronica deserved it, but hearing Wallace speak about it upset her a little. "So, I'll go home."

"Wait."

She stopped and turned to Wallace.

"I can replace her, if you want."

She looked at him, astonished, and began to laugh.

"I'm not sure you can, and want."

"Why?" He seemed serious and she tried to stop her laugh.

"Because I was thinking about a girl afternoon, with some shopping and gossip."

"Perfect, I'm your man, girl, whoever you want."

"Are you sure? You will bore yourself."

"Don't worry. I'm in the habit. V. always kidnaps me when she finds nobody else, and" He whispered "don't tell her, but it's kinda funny."

Mac laughed. It would probably be a weird experiment, and she remembered she liked "weird things".

"Let's do it."

Thankfully, Hannah stayed at the hotel.

She wanted her boy all for her for the rest of time they had before her father came back. She didn't want to think about the other blonde girl. It was Logan who had to deal with, not she. She had to trust him, otherwise she would mess up everything again, and she refused to let this happened.

They arrived early at the airport and they didn't have to seek for a long time to find how to kill the time. She was glad they took his car, because what they were doing would be a little less tolerated if they were in her open-top LeBaron instead being hidden by the X-Terra smoked windows.

Their kisses were turning into an intense make out session, when her cell beeped. Logan sighed frustrated, while Veronica sat back and fixed her hair.

"Show time." She grinned.

"I hope for your cell that his plane isn't delayed."

She kissed him quickly and left the car.

"Do you really want to come?"

"Yep. I told you I have something to ask your dad."

"Thought it was a pretext."

"Thought or hoped?" He smirked.

"Both."

He smiled at her and she felt an imperious desire to hug him. She grasped him suddenly and kissed him with a fierce, demanding passion.

"What was that for?"

"Nothing." She laughed and ran to the door.

He looked at her, speechless, and then imitated her. He passed her and stole her a kiss in front of the arrivals door. He felt she was tense and he watched if her dad was coming. The first passenger were arriving and he knew they had still time because the first are always the First Class Passenger, and he knew the Mars hadn't the way to travel in this class.

He noticed only now the plane's provenance. Hawaii. That sounded more like holidays than work. He saw Veronica was perplexed too.

"Do you know why he went there?"

"No, all I know is what he said to my answering machine, that he's coming home by the plane of 3:27 pm."

Still waiting for the Economic Passenger arrival, they didn't notice Keith Mars had already passed the door and was coming.

"If I knew I would be waited by a welcoming committee, I would have dressed for it." Keith said.

"Dad." Veronica rushed into her father's arms, like the little girl she was still inside and who missed and loved her daddy.

"Hey Honey, I'm glad to see you too." He paused and resumed. "Logan."

"Mr. Mars." Logan replied politely.

"Where have you been?" asked Veronica, half-grumbling.

"I'll explain to you, later. For now, I have to introduce someone to you."

Still smiling, Veronica turned and sought whom her father wanted to present her. Her smile vanished when she saw no one but Kendall coming with her big fake smile.

"Sweetie, let me present you Mrs. Kendall Mars, my wife."

A/N : So ? Review:D Want to be my beta?
