Summary: The hospital visit and why Duncan really took off.
___________________________________________________________________________________
On the drive to Mercy Hospital Logan again broke several traffic laws. He really didn't care about getting any traffic tickets. His main concern was his daughter who was still wailing in the backseat. Veronica had sat in the backseat with her to try to comfort her. So far her efforts didn't seem to be working. Logan whipped the X Terra in to a parking space as close to the door as he could get. Veronica unstrapped Rianna from her car seat and they hurried into the hospital. Logan went up to the nurse that was sitting behind the desk.
"May I help you?"
"Yeah my daughter is really sick. She has a fever of 103.4, has been vomiting, and she is very fussy," Logan explained.
"Okay sir. We'll just need you to fill out these forms and bring them back up to me," the nurse said handing Logan a clipboard with quite a few forms on it.
Logan took the forms. He grumbled all the way over to the waiting area where Veronica and the baby were sitting. " We have to fill these out so they can treat her," he explained, holding up the clipboard.
"Okay, do you want to take her and I'll fill them out?"
"Sure. I'll take her," Logan asked reaching out to take Rianna from Veronica's arms.
Within ten minutes Veronica had finished the paperwork and was walking it up to the nurse's station.
The nurse looked over the paperwork and then asked Veronica for a copy of an insurance card. Veronica handed it over and then stuck it back in her pocket after the nurse had made a copy of it.
"Okay Ms. Mars we will call you in a few minutes."
Veronica had returned to the waiting area. She saw Logan trying desperately to get Rianna to drink the bottle of Pedialyte, but he didn't seem to be having any luck with it. A few minutes later Rianna was called back into the examination area.
"Ms. Mars and Mr. Echolls, My name is Dr. Lyman," the doctor said as he shook hands with Veronica, since Logan was still holding Rianna. "I see Rianna has a high fever as well as some vomiting," the doctor said after looking over the paperwork in front of him.
"Yeah. It was 103.4 when we brought her in here," Logan told him.
"Besides the fever and vomiting, has Rianna had any other problems?" Dr. Lyman asked them.
"Not really. I mean she has been fussy all day, which is weird for her. She's normally a very happy baby."
" How long has she had the fever?" the doctor asked them.
"She was warm this morning, but her fever spiked around noon," Veronica told him.
"That's when her vomiting started as well," Logan added.
"Okay well it sounds like she just has an ear infection," the doctor said. He was already getting out his light to look into her ears. After checking both of Rianna's ears the doctor looked up at the couple, "I was correct. She has an ear infection in her left ear."
"So it's nothing to serious?" Logan asked, the relief was evident in his voice and on his face.
"No. She will be fine in a few days. I'm going to write you a prescription for Amoxicillin," the doctor said. " She will need it three times a day."
"Okay thanks Doc," Logan said.
Veronica took the paper he had written the prescription on. "Are we able to give her Tylenol while she is taking this?"
"Yes Ms. Mars. Tylenol is fine for her. I'd say every 4 hours," Dr. Lyman told her. " Do either of you have any other questions?" he asked as he handed them their copies of the paperwork.
"No doctor," both Logan and Veronica answered.
"Okay then," the doctor replied. " Have a good afternoon."
Veronica and Logan dropped off the prescription at the drugstore after they left the hospital. The pharmacist told them it would take about an hour so they decided to head back to the hotel.
"I'm gonna call Wallace and let him know we don't need a babysitter this afternoon," Veronica said pulling out her phone after they had gotten back to the suite.
"Hang on a sec," Logan told her as he was taking Rianna to her bedroom to put her in the crib.
"Why?" she asked when he came back into the living room of the suite.
"Well the doc said Rianna would be fine. We can give her medicine to her and she'll probably go right to sleep," Logan said.
"What's with the new prospective?" Veronica asked. "I mean you weren't thrilled when I suggested Wallace watching her before she was sick."
"That's true, but I did some thinking on the way home and once we give her the medicine she should be fine and we're going to have to have furniture for our house," Logan told her.
"Okay. You're right and besides Wallace can call if anything happens," Veronica agreed. Her phone began to ring then and glancing at the screen she saw it was Wallace.
"Hey Wallace," she said into her phone.
"Hey V, is everything okay? I haven't seen you since second period and you weren't at lunch."
"Yeah Wallace everything is fine. Mrs. Navarro called Logan because Rianna was sick. Turns out she has an ear infection," Veronica told him.
"Damn that sucks. Poor girl I know how bad those feel. Did you still need me to watch her or are you and Logan going to stay with her? Wallace asked.
"Yeah we still need you to watch her. Logan will be going to get her medicine in a little while and then once she takes that things should be okay."
"Are you guys gonna need any help with moving tomorrow?" Wallace offered.
"No we should be okay, Most of it will be getting delivered from the furniture store. But thanks for offering to help." Veronica said. "You're more than welcome to come by and check it out after you get out of school tomorrow."
"Alright girl well I gotta get to Physics. I'll see you in about an hour and a half," Wallace told her.
"OK see you soon," Veronica said hanging up her phone.
She looked over at Logan and for some reason he had never looked sexier to her. She leaned over and pressed her lips to his. After the initial shock Logan pulled Veronica onto his lap and deepened the kiss. His hands went under her shirt and he was pleasantly surprised to find out she wasn't wearing a bra. He lifted her shirt over her head.
"Damn your gorgeous," he told her.
"You're wearing too many clothes," was her response. Her hands slipped down to his belt while he took off his shirt. She lifted herself off of him so she could slide his pants and boxers down. His erection rubbed against her thigh as she continued to grind into him. Logan moved a hand down her body and as his fingers inched farther up her thigh he felt her wetness on his fingers.
"Oh aren't you the naughty one Ms. Mars? No panties while wearing a skirt," Logan said smirking at her.
Veronica's response didn't make it off her lips as Logan inserted two fingers in her while his thumb played with her clit. She couldn't stop the moan that escaped her mouth.
"Oh God Veronica. You're so tight baby," Logan said as her muscles tightened against his fingers. That seemed to do the trick for Veronica because she came apart in his arms at his words while riding his hand.
She laid her head on his chest for a minute to recuperate before sitting up and wrapping her hands around his erection."I need to feel you inside of me now."
As she positioned her self for him to slide into her he stopped her. "Condom?" he questioned.
"On the pill." That was all she said before sliding him inside of her.
As Logan thrust his hips up to meet hers he slid his hand between them and began playing with her clit. Logan was so close and he wanted her to cum with him. They were both almost to their breaking point before a knock interrupted them. "Fuck," Logan said.
"Ignore them," Veronica panted. "More important."
Logan granted her request and thrust harder until he felt his release building. "I'm so close baby. Cum with me."
"Oh fuck yes Logan" she cried out as she felt him release inside her. Her eyes rolled back as she came.
There was another knock on the door. This time a little louder.
"Damn." Logan said as he pulled his boxers and pants up and threw on his shirt. Before he opened the door he glanced back to make sure Veronica was dressed.
"Bout time," Wallace said when Logan opened the door.
"Sorry man," Logan said simply.
"Wallace you said it'd be about a hour and a half," Veronica said from her spot on the couch.
"It's been that long V," Wallace answered. "What have you been doin?" Before either could answer Wallace looked at them and said, "Never mind."
"Alright well I gotta run and get her prescription. Be right back," Logan kissed Veronica's forehead and grabbed his keys.
"So is Rianna asleep?" Wallace asked after Logan had left.
"Yeah. She went to sleep on the way home," Veronica answered.
"So you never told me what made Duncan take off and leave Rianna?"
"Well you know how after the bus crash Meg was in the coma?" At Wallace's nod she continued. " Well when she woke up we thought she was going to make it. After her sudden death the Manning family had it investigated and someone had slipped something into her IV and it killed her." Veronica gave Wallace a chance to digest the information before continuing, "Sheriff Lamb was looking at Duncan as the prime suspect."
"So he ran? Yeah that looks like something an innocent man would do," Wallace replied. "Why didn't he take Rianna with him though?"
"That I don't know. Maybe he figured a life on the run wasn't what Rianna needed."
"Do you think he did it?" Wallace asked.
"Honestly I have no idea."
"Does Logan know about this?" Wallace asked.
Nope. Just me, Duncan, and the sheriff's department," Veronica said.
***Flashback to Veronica being questioned by Lamb***
"I know you know where Duncan Kane is Veronica, so why don't you save us both some time and just tell me?" Lamb said as he sat at the wooden table across from her.
"Now what would make you think I have any idea where Duncan is Sheriff? I don't know if you have heard or not but I'm dating Logan Echolls not Duncan Kane," Veronica said.
"That may be but you and Echolls are raising Duncan Kane and Meg Manning's baby. Not to mention you and Echolls just got back together right after Duncan Kane's disappearance. So that leads me to believe that you know exactly where Duncan Kane is hiding," Lamb said with a smug look on his face.
"Well sorry to burst your bubble, but I have no idea where Duncan is hiding. If that's all I really do have other places to be and better things to do," Veronica said while rising from the chair.
"I'll be watching you Mars."
"I hope not, because Logan's kind of the jealous type," Veronica said with a smirk and with that she walked out of the Sheriff's office.
***Currently***
"So if Lamb questioned you, don't you think he'll be questioning Logan as well?" Wallace asked.
"I hope not. I mean if Logan finds out that I knew anything about this and didn't tell him he's gonna be pissed. And we seem to be at a good place in our relationship right now," Veronica said.
"Well Supafly there's always another option," Wallace suggested. When he saw Veronica's look of confusion he continued, "you could always just tell Logan the truth."
"Yeah I'm sure that will go well."
"You say he's changed. Maybe he will take it better than you think," Wallace suggested.
"Yeah I guess you're right. I mean I'd rather him hear it from me than anybody else," Veronica said.
"So when you gonna tell him?" Wallace asked.
"The sooner the better. So I guess I'll tell him when we get back from shopping today."
A few seconds later Logan came strolling through the door with Rianna's medicine in his hand. "You wanna wake her to take it now or do you wanna wait till she wakes up?" he asked Veronica.
"Wallace can give it to her when she wakes up, right?" She asked looking over at Wallace.
"Yeah no problem," Wallace answered.
"Alright then BFF we're out of here," Veronica said as she gave her friend a hug.
"Later Wallace," Logan said as he and Veronica left the suite.
