2 months later (V is 5 months pregnant, 4 months until graduation/baby due)

You may now kiss the bride

Veronica stirred sleepily and opened her eyes relaxed with Logan's arms around her, his hands caressing her swollen belly.

"Logan, are you awake?"

" Yes, but now that we both have more money than we will ever need, can't we just stay like this forever" He softly started kissing her neck, his hands moving to caress her stomach underneath her shirt.

" Logan, I've got class in half an hour"

"Well ok It won't be out best effort but..." He looked at her with puppy dog eyes.

She laughed and awkwardly rolled over to face him, " How about we pick this up when I get back, I've got all afternoon free"

" I was going to write this afternoon" He sulked

" Aww, picking writing over sex, who are you??"

He looked thoughtful for a moment " You're right" He said with a sparkle in his eye " I can write tonight after you've fallen asleep at like 8 o'clock"

"Hey!" She exclaimed punching him playfully "You try carrying around a parasite, it's tiring"

Logan slid down to her stomach "Mummy didn't mean that sweetie, you're not a parasite and we love you very much" He murmured as he tenderly stroked her stomach.

"Ugghh" Veronica pushed him away and climbed out of bed "So much for the bad boy I fell in love with, knew I should have gone with Weevil" She walked into the bathroom the with her hand on her stomach spoke to the baby "Sorry Baby, Mummy's just hormonal. I do love you and Daddy, we can't wait until you are here"

Logan had followed her into the bathroom in time to hear her "I love you too Veronica, sorry if I'm not helping you enough??"

" No you are, sorry to take it out on you, I'm just tired you know. I did want to talk to you about my dream though"

" Dreams huh, were we naked and sweaty"

"Not so much, more dressed up and getting married – Anyway I've got to go or I'll miss class." She gave him a peck on the lips as she rushed out. Logan worried what she would say later. He hoped that she still wanted to get married, but It was hard to tell what was going on with her, she was all over the place, but he just kept telling himself it was just her hormones. He hoped it wasn't anything more.

" So us getting married Huh?"

Logan sucked in a breath and waited. He had avoided bringing it up since Bernie's death, since Veronica had been in such a bad mood.

"I'm thinking maybe we shouldn't wait. What if we got married before the baby comes?"

" Are you serious?"

" Yep" she said with a smile "I've been thinking about it. I know we said after graduation, but the baby's due then, and we will be exhausted for pretty much the rest of our lives. Plus I guess I don't really see the point of waiting anymore. We already live together, I'm already pregnant, and I'm ready"

"Ok"

"Ok?"

" Hey I said I'd marry you anytime anyplace remember. When exactly were you thinking?"

" How about the weekend? Everyone's coming over for that barbeque anyway, and there's no classes next week, so we could even have a honeymoon.... well if Phil can manage setting up the new exhibition without me anyway"

"This is a bit sudden Veronica, are you sure?"

"Yes" She said defiantly "I don't want to wait anymore. I'm happy and I love you. Why shouldn't we?"

" Hey I'm happy to hop on a plane to Vegas right now – but doesn't it take time to plan a wedding?"

"I just want something simple. The beach for the ceremony, then the reception in the garden, just our friends, Dad, Charlie and Trina"

"We can do the whole big wedding if you want V? Church, Fancy Reception ?"

" I'm not really that kind of girl, I can't imaging spending that kind of money – but do you want that?"

"As long as you are there, then I'll be happy. I know we don't talk about the financial stuff, but between my money and Bernie's money – we can do anything we like"

"None of it feels like mine though. I did pay off my student loans though"

" About time! I've been telling you to just pay them off for years, even before Bernie..... well my money would have been your money anyway"

" I know, I just hate feeling like a kept woman. I mean we live in your house, pay for most things with your money. I just want to feel like I'm contributing"

"I never wanted you to feel like that Veronica, I mean most of my money was from my parents anyway. I guess I just grew up with having it, so it doesn't bother me. It does feel good to earn some myself with the book though. I mean as much as I'm sometimes tempted to just run away and bum around a beach for the rest of my life – I guess I want to do something more. Even if it's selfish, I'm glad we have money though. Our kids will always have a roof over their head, and everything they need."

Veronica hugged Logan "I know you're right, I just don't want to be one of those rich people who spends insane amounts of money they haven't even earnt on frivolous things."

"So wedding this weekend?" Logan turned the topic back to the subject at hand.

"How do we start this?"

----

Veronica gave Logan a list of things to organise including talking to the council about a permit to hold the wedding at the beach, talking to Charlie and Dick about being his groomsmen, and organising a Celebrant. Veronica rang a local deli to organise food for the reception, then talked Wallace and Mac into going shopping with her the next day. She invited those friends who weren't already invited, telling them it was for a barbecue.

Wallace and Mac were shocked when Veronica revealed the wedding plans and seemed even more amazed when she revealed they had only decided the previous day. They soon rallied and after a few hours they had found the perfect flowing white dress for Veronica, and a casual green dress for Mac. As much as Veronica tried to convince him, Wallace refused to wear a matching dress, and in the end accepted the casual pants and shirt that Veronica assured him was similar to what Logan was going to wear.

Friday was spent organising last minute details, and making sure that everyone knew the time and place. Logan was nervous especially since he was pretty sure Veronica hadn't told Keith yet. He wondered if it was a sign that she was putting it off. He pushed the dismal thoughts out of his head and reminded himself that they had been happy for years now, she was pregnant and not going anywhere.

Veronica had wanted to go to Costa Rica for their honeymoon. She figured they could hole up on a nice beach somewhere and Logan could surf. Logan adamantly refused. He was afraid of Veronica picking up a weird bug or somehow catching something that could hurt the baby. He said they were only going somewhere sanitary with a first class hospital nearby. Veronica told him he was being stupid, but ended up giving in, and they compromised by booking a luxury suite at one of the most exclusive resorts in Hawaii.

Saturday morning Veronica woke Logan up by trailing kisses down his neck. He responded eagerly and soon he was thrusting into her. Afterwards they lay cuddling thinking about the day ahead.

" I can't believe we are really doing this"

" Well I should go see Dad, I guess I'll see you tonight then" Veronica quickly dressed in jeans then grabbed her makeup bag and a garment bag that were waiting by the door.

Veronica let herself into her Dad and Jen's place and found them eating breakfast " Hey guys, what's up?"

"Just a lazy Saturday"

"How about you?"

"Well I thought I might get married today"

"Is this a joke Veronica?" Keith exclaimed

"Nope Dad, Logan and I are getting married tonight. I was hoping you might perform your fatherly duty and walk me down the aisle.... or beach rather"

"Of course Honey...... just seems a little sudden that's all" He looked thoughtful then grinned and said to Jen

"Pay up"

She laughed and told him "Later"

Veronica looked at them questioningly

" Your Dad bet me that you wouldn't wait till you graduated to get married"

Veronica laughed "It's going to be really casual, the ceremony on the beach behind the house, and the reception in the garden. Most of our friends don't know, so it's going to be a bit of a surprise.

Wallace and I will be getting ready at Mac's place. You're welcome to get ready with us, or you can swing by around 5. The ceremony is planned for 6, so everyone should be there by then"

" Ok honey, how about we come around at 4 so we can take some pictures first.... guess I will have to find something to wear"

Veronica gave him and Jen a hug "Just remember casual. Logan's just wearing linen pants and a shirt – no tie, and I'm wearing this great cotton dress."

After she left Keith and Jen just looked at each other and laughed "Well I'm surprised it took them this long, at least they didn't hop a plane to Vegas. Veronica's not really one for a traditional wedding."

---

That evening Mac, Wallace, Keith and Jen were drinking champagne, while Veronica put the final touches on her makeup. As she entered Mac's living room there was a stunned silence

"Wow V, you look great" Wallace commented.

"Thanks, now let's do some pictures and get this show on the road"

--

After Logan got off the phone with Wallace, he made an announcement " Hey Everyone, thanks for coming. I know this is a bit of a surprise, but Ronnie decided she would finally make an honest man out of me, which is why we are hosting this little get together. Anyway if you could all make your way down to the beach, She'll be here soon"

Their friends were buzzing with the news, and they followed Logan down to the beach. Veronica arrived on her father's arm a few minutes later and walked towards the group. Logan was talking to the celebrant telling him about the pregnancy when his friends talking alerted him to Veronica's presence.

He gasped as he saw her, walking confidently towards him barefoot, with a flowing white cotton dress that accentuated her belly. He couldn't believe it was finally happening.

The celebrant briefly spoke welcoming everyone, to the wedding of Veronica Mars and Logan Echolls, then invited them to speak.

"Logan, I love you. We've had our ups and downs but we keep coming back to each other. And now we will be a family forever. I'm so glad you stuck with me through everything and waited for me to be ready. The rest of my life isn't such a daunting concept if you will be there to share it with me."

"Ronnie, I always knew that you would eventually see what I did, that we were epic and destined to be together. It's been hard at times, but in the end it's all worth it to be standing here with you, looking forward to our life with our daughter. I love you and I always will"

They exchanged rings and the celebrant pronounced them married. As Logan pulled Veronica into a passionate kiss, several of the onlookers brushed away tears.

As they broke apart their friends surrounded them giving them congratulations and hugs. After a while the group moved back to the house where Logan and Veronica signed the marriage certificate, before Dick started grilling steaks

" Man, I'm hungry. Don't people usually pay someone to cook the food at their wedding??"

Wallace elbowed him out of the way "Here It'll go faster if you let someone who knows how to cook take care of it. I don't like charcoal"

The night was full of jokes and laughter, as well as plenty of friendly sniping.

Veronica looked back on it as she walked down to the beach in Hawaii to find Logan

"Hey husband of mine, I can't believe how lucky I am"

The end.....

A/N sorry if this seemed to be moving too fast. I had planned to keep going till the birth of the baby, but I'm a little disappointed with the lack of reviews I've gotten so I think I will just finish here. I would like to say a huge thankyou though to Isilady, Kathy0518, and .9. who reviewed multiple times!
