Chapter 1

I Was Hoping It Would Be You

Veronica lay on her bed, trying to ignore the unbelievable pain of the night's events, her boyfriend's father was taken to Neptune's finest police cell to be asked questions concerning the murder of Lilly Kane; Veronica had been the one to discover that Aaron Echolls, star of 'Breaking Point' and 'Beyond the Breaking Point', had murdered his son's girlfriend to keep his cheating ways hidden from his beloved audience and the press; Once she had discovered the truth, she had tried to reach her father, but Aaron had stowed away in the back of her car. This had led to an awful battle which ended with Keith Mars in hospital and Echolls being escorted to jail. As Veronica shut her eyes, trying to get some rest, someone started knocking on the front door. She started walking towards it, every muscle in her body feeling like it was on fire. She opened the door; her arm feeling like it would fall off if she moved another inch. There in the shadows stood someone she knew was coming, someone she hoped would come to her.

"I was hoping it would be you" she said as she smiled.

"Well girl, what's a guy to do when his bestest best friend is in need?" asked Wallace as he stepped out of the shadows.

"So…your mom told you I was on my own, huh?" she asked as walked back inside.

"Yeah, and me in the deepest of sleeps" Wallace replied, a tone of sarcasm in his voice as he walked in closing the door. "Is it true then? Did he really do it?" he asked as he flopped down on the couch as Veronica walks to the fridge.

"Aaron Echolls killed Lilly. Then he tried to kill me" she replied as she got two bottles of water from the fridge and walked over to Wallace, holding one out for him.

"Yeah, I noticed that. You want me to get you, I don't know, a band-aid or something?" he asked as he took the bottle from her.

"No, I'll be fine, well maybe not fine, but better." she replied as she sat beside him on the couch

"Does Logan know?" He questioned as he opened his water and took a sip.

"I tried calling him before, but I only got his machine" replied Veronica. Only a few days ago she had had him arrested because she had thought he was the one who had killed Lilly. Now that the truth was out, she didn't know what to do.

Wallace was about to speak when the phone rang, interrupting him. Veronica, groaning as she stood up, walked into her room to answer her phone.

"Hello?" She could here someone breathing on the other end. "Hello? Who's there?" No one responded. She was about to hang up when she heard the quietest groan.

"Hey Ronnie, how you doing?" It was Logan.

"Logan? Are you alright?" she asked, her worry increasing.

"I've been better in all honesty. Could you come get me?" he asked, his voice pleading with her.

"Logan, has something happened?" she asked as she made her way back to the living room.

"Me, Weevil and his gang, we had a party on the bridge" he said, trying to kid with her.

"Did they….did they hurt you?" she asked, her fear growing.

"I'll tell you when you get here. Can you come pick me up?"

"Of course. I'll be there as soon as possible." She hung up and rushed over to the door.

"Wallace, can you drive me to the bridge? Logan's in trouble" she said as she put on a light jacket.

"Sure." And with that they both head out the door, Veronica locking it as they left.

"Does he know yet?" asked Wallace as they approached Veronica's car.

"We'll find out soon" she replied as they got into the car, with Wallace driving.
