Logan and Veronica always had a volatile relationship, that would pull them together, and tear them apart. Now however for the first time in a long time they are happy and content with their lives. For most of the years of college the couple was a part, but they had this desire to becoming friends again, which caused them even more problems, at least with those with whom they dated over the years, who wanted them to cut all ties with each other.
Flashback Sophomore Year at Hearst
Veronica had stayed with Piz, after the incident in the cafeteria at the end of freshmen year. Things went well for most of the summer, with Veronica and Piz off for their respected internships, and them getting to spend quite a bit of time together alone on weekends. However that soon ended when Wallace's brother Darryl got extremely sick, and Veronica chose to go home to Neptune once she learned Wallace, was going to be returning early from his summer in Africa. Veronica was their for Wallace and Mrs. Fennel during the time Darryl was sick, and much to everyone's surprise, so was Logan. Wallace was skeptical of Logan wanting to be there at first, but when Darryl needed a blood tranfusion, and there was a short supply of Darryl's blood, Logan who had the same blood type donated for the Fennel's. This brought Wallace and Logan closer and ultimastely friends again. Piz could of gone back to Neptune, but had chosen to stay in New York, and finish his internship, However, when Piz learned of Wallace's renewed friendship with Logan, he thought for sure that Logan did this to get back into Veronica's life with Piz not there. Piz's constant complaining about Logan started to irritate Wallace, who wanted to hear none of it.
Wallace: Look Piz, I know you don't like the guy, and believe me I get it, but he helped save Darryl's life, and that for me is enough to try to get past everything that has happened.
Piz: Look Wallace, I am happy Darryl is going to be ok, but Logan can't be trusted, he is a psychopath, just like his father
Wallace: (sighing) Honestly Piz, do you think before you speak, Logan may be alot of things, but he is nothing like his father. If you know what is good for you, you will keep that opinion to yourself.
Piz: (disgusted) I read all about Logan's dad, I know what kind of man he was, and I am sorry but Logan is just like him in every way. Darryl is now going to be ok because of it.
Wallace: You didn't know Logan's dad, they type of man he was. Logan is nothing like him. Maybe you should get you facts straight before spewing that kind of garbage.
Piz: (calmly) I think I experienced Logan being like his dad first hand thank you very much, and I think I got the facts straight, maybe you should try to
Wallace: Seriously. I know the facts, I lived it with Veronica every step of the way, I know what he was like, what he was capable of, and Logan is nothing like his dad.
Piz: (nastily) Whatever. You are entitled to your opinion, and I am entitled to mine. Tha fact is, Logan is using this as a chance to get in Veronica's good graces, and you are enabling him, and I don't like it.
Piz hung up with Wallace, and regretted what he said immediately. Not because he didn't think he was wrong, but because he knew Wallace would tell Veronica everything, and sure enough he was right, as a hour later, an angry Veronica was calling him.
Piz: (trying to remain cool) Hey babe, how's your day been
Veronica: (laughing) My day, oh let me tell you how my day has been. My best friend, Wallace, I think you know him, calls me angry as hell, and tells me he is about to fly out to New York and beat your ass. I ask him why and he proceeds to fill me in on your conversation. What the hell is wrong with you?
Piz: (angrily) Excuse me. What the hell is wrong with me, seriously.
Veronica: (nastily) What in the world gives you the right to say the things you did to Wallace, about Logan, and his father. You didn't know his father, hell you don't know Logan.
Piz: (ready to explode) I know enough based on experience, that Logan is just like his father, and you would be wise to continue to stay away from him
Veronica: (in a serious tone) Oh really and if I chose not to stay away from him
Piz: Don't come crying to me when he hurts you, or someone you love.
Veronica: (nastily) No worries Piz, from here on out, there is nothing between you and me, so if he does hurt me, I won't be running to you.
Veronica wasn't all that upset over the break up, and no one was surprised at that. Even though her and Logan were on the outs, she always defended him especially when it came to people comparing him to his father. Piz stayed in New York tranfering to NYU, which was probably a good thing, considering he might of got a beat down at the hands of Logan again, and those with whom he was friends. Although no one was surprised at Veronica and Piz's break up, they were surprised that this didn't push Logan and Veronica
back together. This was the start however, of them finally becoming the friends they needed to be able to try to once again be together. However, that in itself would cause problems later on as well, this time for Logan and the young women he was dating sometime later.
Flashback Senior Year At Hearst
Logan and Audra Mazzolli had started dating two weeks after Veronica left for her third summer internship with the FBI. Everything between the couple was good as the summer progressed, but not everything was good between Audra and Logan's friends. Audra found it hard to be friends with any of them. She didn't like Mac at all, mostly because it was no secret two of her best friends both were Logan's ex-girlfriends. However much she didn't like her, she had to be nice, since she was Logan's business partner. Parker was another story. Audra hated Parker, and she made no secret about it, especially to Logan saying she felt it was disrespectful of Logan to be friendly with Parker, since of course she was one of his exes. Audra didn't only have issue with Logan's female friends. Audra also had issues with Wallace and Dick. Audra didn't know much about Veronica other than she was Logan's ex, but not knowing anything about their past, and knowing all her friends were Logan's friends, including Wallace, being around him was even more uncomfortable then being around Mac and Parker. Audra absolutely hated Dick, and made it very clear to Logan that eventually Dick was going to bring him down with his immaturity and constant partying. Logan knew it might be hard for Audra to get along with his friends, and when she voiced her displeasure he made it very clear that he considered all of his friends as his family and that they would never be cut out of his life. Veronica had kept in touch with everyone over the summer and knew about how Logan had started dating and about how they didn't like his new girlfriend, at all. Veronica didn't talk to Logan much over the summer, but they did email, and text on occasion. Logan's communication with Veronica didn't sit well with Audra, but she knew she couldn't say anything, as she was already on thin ice when it came to Logan's friends. When Veronica returned home, everyone was happy to see her, including Logan, who's affectionate hug at the airport, infuriated Audra, who was ready to fight for her man, and put Veronica in her place. The first few weeks of classes were hectic for everyone. As Halloween approaches, Mac, Parker and Veronica decided it was time to cut loose, and they made plans to attend the Pi Sig Halloween Party.
Mac: I am not sure yet what I should go as, although I got a few ideas. Dick suggested I go as a stripper, which I flatly replied with a hell no.
Veronica: (laughing) Do you have any ideas, anything you might wanna go as
Mac: Cleopatra maybe
Parker: Yes, oh god Mac you should, and I can do your hair and makeup
Mac: (sighing) must you
Veronica: (laughing) yes she must
Mac: Ok Parker what are you going as
Parker: A barbie doll. (Mac and Veronica look at Parker with raised eyebrows) What, I always wanted to dress up like one but my mom didn't approve, what about you Veronica, what are you going as
Veronica: I honestly haven't decided, although Audra suggested I go as Medusa, she says it would suit me
Parker: (rolling her eyes) More like it would suit her.
Mac: (laughing) Yes but we would have to warn Logan not to look her in the eyes.
Logan: (coming up on the laughing girls, with Audra on his arm) Ladies, did I just hear my name.
Veronica: (laughing) Yes you did, we were wondering what you were gonna go as to the Halloween party at the Pi Sig House, you always do seem to surprise us with your creativity
Audra: (firmly) We aren't going to the Pi Sig Party, we have other plans
Logan: (surprised) Oh we do, do we, since when. I told Dick we would be there
Audra: (irritated) Well you shouldn't of made any plans with Dick until you spoke to me, I made other plans with some of my friends to go to a Halloween party in LA at Vinyl
Logan: (annoyed) Well maybe you shouldn't have of made any plans were your friends until you talked to me. Sorry honey, but I am not going to LA, and I am certainly not going to Vinyl
Audra: (angrily) Why not, Vinyl will be the most happening place in SoCal this Halloween.
Logan: LA on Halloween is a zoo, and Vinyl is not the type of place I want to hang out at, let alone be seen in, sorry not happening.
Audra: (angrily) Logan, I am not missing the party of the year, we are going to Vinyl.
Logan: (assertive) No we aren't. If you wanna go, go I won't stop you, but I am gonna go to the Pi Sig party, I now there I will at least be in the presense of better company
Audra: (shocked) You would rather stay here, and go to a frat party, and hang out with your loser friends, than go with me to Vinyl's Halloween Bash.
Logan: (angrily) My loser friends, really Audra.
Audra: (nastily) Yes Logan, your loser friends. God, your such an idiot, can't you see these people aren't worth your time, you can do so much better. I mean, imagine my surprise when I learned you slummed it by dating these two, (pointing to Parker and Veronica, who are both about ready to beat Audra down)
Logan: Your right Audra, (the girls all turn their head violently in Logan's direction), I am an idiot, I can do so much better, (all three girls look at Logan in shock), than a whiny, self absorbed bitch like you for a girlfriend, or should I say ex-girlfriend now.
Audra: (surprised) What! You are dumping me
Logan: (smugly) Yes, Yes I am. I warned you when we first started dating that my friends were like my family, and I wouldn't tolerate them being insulted, and by insulting them you are insulting me, maybe this will teach you a lesson, so you don't make the same mistake with your next boyfriend.
Audra stomped off, and Logan sat down with the girls at their table, smiling from ear to ear. The three girls just look at him in shock, not sure what to say.
Logan: What! Like you all having been waiting for that moment for weeks.
The girls all break out into hysterical laugher and begin discussing their plans for the Pi Sig Halloween party. A little while later, Mac and Parker excuse themselves as they need to head to class leaving Veronica and Logan alone at the table
Veronica: So are you ok, I mean I know you really like Audra
Logan: I am fine. I did like her, but her attitiude towards everyone really was starting to bother me. I should have done it weeks ago, but I don't know I guess I didn't know how. Today, the way she treated you guys, really made it easy
Veronica: I am sorry, I know what it is like, you know to be with someone who hates your friends.
Logan: Piz didn't hate your friends, he hated me, big difference, and we weren't really friends back then, it wasn't til after you guys broke up we started being friends again
Veronica: Actually, he sent me a email a week or so after we broke up, and he went off, and trust me he didn't like any of my friends
Logan: Really, he and Wallace were roommates and they were friends or so I thought I guess not
Veronica: They were, until he defended you to Piz after you donated blood for Darryl
Logan: Ahhh that is right, remind me if we ever see him again I owe him a broken nose
Veronica: No way Echolls, you will have to stand in line like everyone else, I get first crack at him\
Logan: (laughing) Ok. All is fair in love and war I guess
Veronica: You know, we aren't very good at dating other people. No one we ever date ever and I mean ever likes any of our friends
Logan: Yeah I know, remember that guy Brandon, you dated, he made Ziggy the guy Luke bought steroids for back in high school look small, he hated Wallace, said white girls shouldn't have black guys for friends.
Veronica: Yeah, he was an ass, I am so glad Wallace gave him the beat down he deserved, although you got to admint he was quite a wimp for someone so beefy wasn't he
Logan: yeah, god what were you thinking
Veronica: appaarently I wasn't, but you got no room to talk, what about Tara, that girl had more plastic surgery than Madison, and we all know just about every part on Madison is fake.
Logan: Yes well, neither one of us have done great in the relationship department so neither one of us can criticize the other apparently.
Veronica: Do you ever wonder why that is, I mean what is it about us where we can't seem to find someone that makes us happy
Logan: No, I don't wonder why, because I know why, it is because no one else can make us happy but each other, but that being said every time we try we just can't seem to make things last
Veronica: Well, we have come along way since we were last together, and we have worked out alot of issues, maybe someday we will
Logan took that last statement as hope and low and behold, six weeks later, just before Christmas, Logan asked Veronica out, and the couple happily reunited. He didn't hesitate soon after that to propose.
Echolls Home, Neptune, California, Present Day
Logan and Veronica had spent the next few days after her last doctor's appointment relaxing at home, waiting for Veronica to finally go into labor. She was tired of carrying around all the extra weight, despite the fact Logan thought she was sexy, she was so ready to pop this baby out. Logan ran a warm bath for Veronica that night before they went to bed. When she was ready to get out she was so much more relaxed. The happy couple cuddled uo next to each other and fell asleep. A few hours later, Veronica awoke, and was in a great deal of pain, as she gathered herself, she turned on the light on the night stand and tried to get out of bed, only to feel more pain.
Veronica: Logan, (he stirred a bit) Logan wake up
Logan: (sleepily) Huh what is it.
Veronica: I think I just had a contraction, I think I am going into labor.
Logan: (fully awake now, he jumps up) you sure
Veronica: No I am not sure, I mean I woke up and was in pain, and I tried to get up (with that he cut her off)
Logan: Ok I am calling the doctor, and your dad
Logan got his phone and made the calls while Veronica remained in their bed. After calling the doctor, and Keith, he gathered everything Veronica needed and loaded it into the car.
Veronica: (yelling) Logan
Logan: (running up the stairs) Veronica I am right here, what is it, what is wrong
Veronica: I think my water just broke
Logan: Oh God, let's go we got to get you to the hospital
Logan helped Veronica down the stairs, and into the car. He put on her seatbelt, then handed her a blanket to cover her up. He got in the car turned on the engine, and raced to the hospital. When they arrived Keith was already there, and a nurse was ready to wheel Veronica in and get her ready for the delivery, as her doctor was on her way. The nurse got Veronica's vitals then settled her into her room. The contractions by Logan's count were about 7 minutes apart. By the time the doctor arrived 15 minutes later, they were only about 4 minutes apart.
Dr. Haynes: Veronica, looks like your daughter wants out, you ready.
Veronica: Am I ready, no not relaly but I guess I have no choice, (the doctor laughed) the pain is immense though any chance I can get something to ease it a bit.
Dr. Haynes: Of course, I will take care of that right away, (the doctor left and returned with the nurse who performed an epideral, which calmed Veronica down immensely). Now that we have tqaken care of that we are gonna get you in position
Logan: Position?
Dr. Haynes: This bed is a special bed for child birth. We will pull out the supports so Veronica can open her legs wide, which will allow her to push more comfortably, and allow us to watch for the baby as she comes out.
Logan: Ok got it.
Dr. Haynes: Now Veronica, let's get you in position, and we will get a chair for your husband so he can sit next to you, and help you with your breathing exercises as you get closer to giving birth. (Veronica nods)
The nurse brings Logan a chair, and he sits down next to Veronica's bed holding her hand as the contractions continue. Menawhile, Keith had called all of Logan and Veronica's friends and they were arriving in the waiting area. Everyone was excited and were sporting gifts for the new baby. A few minutes after everyone has arrived, Logan came out to update everyone.
Keith: (nervously) Logan How is she.
Logan: She is holding her own, the pain was pretty bad for a while, but the gave her an epideral so she is with a little less painand more relaxed.
Keith: (relaxing) Good, Good.
Logan: She is asking for you. You can get to her room through those doors, and her room is the third on the left.
Keith: (surprised) Oh, okay
Logan: I will give you two a minute and then head back in when you guys are done. (Keith nodded)
Keith walked back the way Logan had instructed him, and entered the room to see Veronica laying back on the bed.
Keith: Hey Honey, (Veronica looks up at him and smiles) how you doing in here
Veronica: Oh God dad, it hurts so bad, but I'm starting to relax a bit more though.
Keith: Everyone is out there waiting for you to bring Megan into the world.
Veronica: (giving him puppy dog eyes) Dad, Please tell me I am gonna be a good mother
Keith: (frowning) Of course you are honey. You and Logan are gonna be fine parents of that I am sure.
Veronica: But dad, (Keith interupts her)
Keith: You and Logan didn't have the greatest role models when it came to parenting, but you will make sure you don't make the same mistakes.
Veronica: You mean it.
Keith: Yes honey, (serious tone) now buck up, and get my granddaughter out here ASAP, (he laughs then kisses Veronica on the forehead)
Keith walks back out to the waiting area to find Logan chatting with everyone. Logan looks up and sees Keith has returned and says good bye and makes his way back to his wife, to help her all he can as she delivers their little girl.
Mollymook, Australia Present Day
Duncan was waiting with Lily at the private air strip where the Kane Family's private jet was due to land to take them home to Neptune. As they wait, Duncan thinks back to all his best memories there, and hoping the best are yet to come. He doesn't know what to expect, he has no idea what any of his old friends are doing or if they are even in Neptune still. However that being said, he hopes he gets to see, Veronica, and prays that she hasn't left Neptune for parts unknown. At that moment Lily begins to yank on his pant leg. He looks at her to see her pointing as the jet before them comes to a halt. Moments later, Celeste and Jake Kane are exiting the plane, and making there way towards Duncan and Lily. The reunited family greets each other with hugs, and tears. They quickly load up the plane and board headed home to Neptune. Celeste and Jake had bought quite a few gifts for Lily and Duncan allowed her to open them on the plane. A little while later, Lily has passed out and Duncan, Celeste and Jake discuss the legalities of his return home
Duncan: Dad I get it ok, I do but I am finally going home, ready to resume the life I left behind
Jake: (nervously) About that, Duncan alot of things have changed since you were last in Neptune, in fact some things you mother and I were not aware of until recently since we stayed in Napa most of the last year trying to get you home
Duncan: (rolling his eyes, but maintaining a smile) Dad, I know things have changed, Clarence kept me up to dae on things before he died.
Jake: These are things that have happened since, or at least since you last got an update.
Duncan: (confused) Like what.
Celeste: Duncan, you might not like much of what has happened since
Duncan: (curiously) Oh, like what
Celeste: (cautiously) Well, for starters, Logan and Veronica are married, in fact they just celebrated their one year anniversity two weeks ago
Duncan: (shocked) What! Logan and Veronica are married. Last I heard a few weeks before Clarence died, they weren't even together, are you sure
Jake: Yes, we are sure, your mother ran into them earlier this week, they are expecting their first child anytime now
Duncan: (appaulled) What, they are having a baby too.
Celeste: Yes, they are having a girl, and they are naming her Megan Lynn Echolls.
Duncan: (shaking his head angrily) I find this hard to believe, it has only been a little over a year since Clarence last updated me, about two weeks before he died, and Logan and Veronica were not together
Jake: Well, is it possible that maybe Clarence kept this from you
Duncan: (angrily)No way dad, he wouldn't he knew how much I love Veronica, he knew I still loved her like I did all those years ago, and wanted to find my way back, he wouldn't
Celeste: Duncan, I asked around a bit once we made our way more to Neptune, and from what I gathered via the gossip tree, they got back together right before Christmas of their senior year at Hearst, and married in June after they graduated.
Duncan: That can't be right, I got my last update right after they graduated, Clarence said they were still apart.
Jake: I am sorry Duncan, but Logan and Veronica are married, and they are anytime now, going to be parents.
Duncan: (turning int he direction of his mother) You said you seen them, last week.
Celeste: I was picking up lunch for your father and I, from Luigi's the two of them were going in as I was leaving, it was obvious she was pregnant, and they offered up that she was, and they told me it was gonna be a girl and what they were gonna name her
Duncan: Yeah right, Logan and Veronica can't stand you, while would they offer up info on their baby, to you of all people. I don't believe all of this, all this is lies, dirty rotten lies.
Duncan got up and went over to his carry on luggage and grabbed out his laptop. He scowered the internet using the search Logan Echolls & Veronica Mars. The search yielded an announcement in the Balboa County Ledger, of the couples wedding on June 28th, on Catalina Island at a private resort, and some pictures the couple provided from the ceremony. Duncan then found photos of a very pregnant Veronica and Logan smiling and laughing while shopping in Beverly Hills at some of the most trendy baby stores. Duncan took a deep breathe and sighed. He couldn't believe that they were married, and having a baby. Clarence lied to him, kept him in the dark about everything involving Logan and Veronica's relationship. Duncan is angry. He wonders what else Clarence kept from him, what else went on he doesn't know about. The more he thinks about it, the more angry he gets. Angry at Clarence, for keeping all these secrets, angry at Logan and Veronica for betraying him in everyway, and ngry at himself for running away without her, she shoulod of been with me, she should of been Lily's mother. Now instead, she is Logan's wife, and the soon the mother of his child.
