I love this! Even though they’ve been absent from each other’s lives lately, they easily slip into their usual quippy mode.
“Motel? I don’t think so. I’m sure they have a nice hotel around her somewhere. I’m not staying in some flea bag interstate motel.” I can just imagine Logan saying those words.
“Veronica, I’d never be too busy for you,” he stated firmly. All Logan ever wanted was to feel needed (and loved) by Veronica. He would never turn her down, or refuse to do something she asked him to.
“You. Are. Not. Aaron. Nor will you ever be. And I’ll tell you over and over until you start to believe it.” I really like how she “forces” him to listen to her. I think Logan’s greatest fear is turning out to be too much like Aaron. They do share some common traits--violent outbursts--but the reasons behind them, and their “victims” are very much different.

^ I completely agree : )
And I really think that Veronica was the strong one in their relationship. I think that needed sometimes, too, like this one.
