A/N: Well, this is it folks. Epilogue time. I had several ideas of where to pick them back up and in the so many rewrites that I had, this won out with a lot of my previous ideas becoming flashbacks, so that's pretty cool. Enjoy! and thank you so much everyone who has been there with me for this entire story. I love all of you and your support has been incredible.

Chapter 20: Epilogue

For the 20th anniversary of Aaron Echolls' brutal murder, Tinseltown Diaries wanted to do a family update to air on the momentous occasion. Logan agreed after a desperate plea from Trina, who was still fighting to be an actress and thought this could be her big break. No matter how distant Trina was every other day of the year, Logan still wanted to help out his sister. They were, after all, family.

Now the film crew sat in their living room, waiting to interview him, and surprisingly, the rest of his family.

"Logan..." the host began, looking him straight in the eyes, "Twenty years ago, Hollywood lost one of their own, your father, Aaron Echolls, and to this day, his murder remains unsolved. Do you ever want to solve the case to give your father justice?"

He smiled and shook his head. One, he already knew who did it, thanks to Veronica's help. Two, he had never been happier. "Nope," Logan responded, obviously shocking the host, "My father got what he deserved."

She needed a minute to compose herself to continue the interview, taking a stab at a different line of questioning, "I noticed as I walked around your home earlier that you didn't have a single Aaron Echolls film in your collection. Is it too difficult to watch them?"

Logan's smile grew, "Yes, it is. It is just too painful to watch such terrible acting."

"Okay..." the host said, quickly running out of angles to approach Logan. Trina was so easy, she broke down, needed consoling and played the loving daughter role well. Logan on the other hand, appeared to not miss his father at all. "So, the last time we spoke to you, you were just a teenager. How has your life changed since then?"

The memories of the past twenty years rushed into his head, "I'm married now, almost fifteen years, to the love of my life," Logan began, thinking back to his wedding day.

"You're not going to tell me?" he asked his beautiful bride as they took their positions on the dance floor for their first dance.

She shook her head with an innocent smile, "Nope, but if you're patient, you'll find out in two seconds when they start to play it."

Her smile caused him to smile as he placed his hands on her waist to begin the dance. It took him a few beats to recognize the song but when he did, the smile on his face was replaced with shock, "Really?" he asked her.

"I just wanted to make it a dream come true. I want to make all of your dreams come true, Logan," she said, moving closer to him as the song continued.

She was something else. After all those years she remembered his sarcastic comment about "I've Had the Time of my Life" played when he dreamed of dancing with her. She actually made it their song to dance to for the first time as husband and wife. Any doubts he could have possibly had about marrying her completely vanished. Veronica Mars... Veronica Echolls was the one meant for him.

"I have four beautiful, healthy children, whom I never thought I could love as much as I do. They're probably listening in right now and are rolling their eyes in embarrassment, but it's true," Logan continued.

They were laying in bed one night after a fun day at the zoo with their three boys, "What about one more?" Veronica asked him, referring to having another baby. After their third, they both had agreed that three was a good number.

"Are you sure?" he asked. Secretly, after three boys, he wanted a little girl; one he could spoil and protect and have him wrapped around her little finger.

Veronica nodded, "I miss having a baby in the house. Plus, maybe it will be a girl. I feel a little outnumbered here by all the men," she laughed, knowing Logan's secret desires. She could read Logan pretty well and sometimes he didn't have to say anything, she just knew. Plus, Veronica wanted a little girl too.

"Okay then, one little girl, coming up," Logan laughed, kissing his wife. Although neither of them knew it at the time, in nine months they would be the proud parents of a little girl.

"My oldest son, Shane, actually had a starring role in the movie that we just finished shooting, coming out this winter," Logan continued. He never thought he would be one of those fathers that could brag for hours about his child's accomplishments, but he had taken to parenthood like a fish to water.

The host said nothing at Logan's shameless plug for not only his new movie but his son as well, "How do you think your father would have reacted to the news that his grandson is following in his rather large footsteps?"

"It's one audition," Veronica calmed Logan, who wasn't thrilled with the idea of his son becoming an actor. He had never really liked the public life and didn't really want that for his children. "If we're lucky," she continued, "he will have gotten your dad's terrible acting genes and we'll never have to worry about this again." She laughed and put her arms around him to comfort him.

Still, it wasn't really helping, "What if they like him," knowing it was a possibility with a name like Echolls, regardless of talent.

"Then we support him. We treat him like a normal kid, like all of our other children, we put all of the money he makes acting in a trust fund for him when he gets older and we deal with it. It's what he wants to do, Logan," she clutched his hand, "It will be fine. Plus, it's your movie. You'll be on set like 95% of the time, you can make sure they treat him well and embarrass the hell out of him. He won't want to do another one that way."

Shane did end up getting the role and Logan did watch out for him in a way he knew his own father would not. Although, it did bother him that he may never know if they selected his son on his own merit or because of his famous name. "He probably would have loved it," Logan said, honestly. If Aaron Echolls was still alive, he would probably be fighting to give Shane acting lessons, be seen everywhere with the boy, and make sure that the kid was noticed. Of course, Logan never would have allowed such a thing to happen. "We will never really know though," Logan finished.

"If your father was here right now, what would you say to him?" the host tried to bring this back to Aaron, since the special was about him.

Logan looked around and took a moment before answering, "Honestly, I don't have anything to say to him. He made his bed and now he has to lie in it." He looked at his watch, this interview had already taken longer than he had agreed to.

The host noticed his antics, "Is there somewhere else you need to be?" she asked.

"Uh, yeah, actually, my sons have a soccer game today and I'd really like to be there for them," Logan said, taking off his microphone and getting out of the chair. He honestly didn't care what this media rag would show on television about him. The people who were important to him would know the truth and the rest he didn't really care about.

That afternoon, he stood in the sidelines with his beautiful wife and daughter cheering on his three sons in their soccer game. Logan remembered back to that day at twelve years old when he stood on the very same field and caught a glance for the first time at the girl that would one day grow up and become his wife and make him the happiest man alive. He reached out and pulled Veronica closer to him, placing his arm around her waist and received an eye roll from his nine-year-old. Ignoring her, he persisted to plant a soft kiss on his wife's forehead, "I rapture you."

She smiled at him, "I rapture you, too. Are you feeling okay?"

Logan nodded, "Yeah, just remembering you in those shorts with those socks on this field..."

Veronica playfully hit him, "We're never speaking of that again!"

"Do you remember our honeymoon?" he asked, not sure why he thought of it.

She nodded, "We went to Italy, it was so beautiful."

"And you made me wait here for an extra day.." he remembered with a laugh.

They sat on the bed in front of her laptop as she made the travel arrangements for their honeymoon. He noticed she had made separate flight arrangements for the trip there, "Is there a reason you don't want to fly with me?" he asked, thinking the wedding planning was getting to her. All of that money spent on a wedding, she wasn't used to that, he knew, "We can afford to fly together, really."

"No, you might not remember it, but I do. I want us to be epic, Logan. Spanning years and continents, lives ruined, bloodshed. Epic," she recited his speech from that night, "I'd say we have the years thing pretty much covered, and the lives ruined part. You have certainly done enough bloodshed for the both of us, but we've never spanned continents. So, you need to be here and I need to be there and..."

He smiled at her memory, "Yes. Okay. Book the flights. I want to have an epic love story with you, Veronica Mars." Logan leaned in and kissed her. In a few short days they would be husband and wife and if she wanted a technicality, she could have it.

Veronica nodded, "Completely worth it. I met so many cute pool boys at the hotel and ate my weight in actual Italian lasagna. We should go back sometime."

"Okay," he agreed before cheering for his son who just scored his fourth goal that game. And that was their life and they wouldn't change it for anything. A house on the beach. Four kids. And so much love that it was never a question. Their story truly was a happily ever after.

A/N: Reviews are lovely and I really do want to start working on another story. I have a couple of ideas brewing. We'll see how it goes. Also, I love my chliched self for the "I've Had the time of my life" as their wedding song, and the spanning continents for epic. I tried to squeeze in a DK return, but it was too much. He might have come back by this point. He might not have. Oh well. Not relevant. lol. I hope to see you guys around in another LoVe story sometime.
