This is a Lucian story! Here's the first chapter, hope you guys like it! I don't own PLL
How it All Happened:
Chapter 1
Lucy's POV
I grew up in Memphis Tennessee not far from Nashville. I've always wanted to be a country singer, to perform for millions of people and win lots of awards. Since I can remember I have been taking singing lessons.
I move to Los Angeles California with my mom when I was fifteen to start my career in singing and acting, but also in hopes of getting a record deal. I won on the TV show American Juniors, which is a singing show like American Idol or the voice, just for younger juniors.
I am now twenty years old and still have not got a record deal yet but there was talk. I have also been in a few TV shows to start my acting career. I've been in twelve different shows/ movie since I moved to LA.
I have an audition coming up for a show called Pretty Little Liars. I was really excited for it in all honesty, but I was also kind of nervous. I was auditioning for two different characters. One was an artsy girl named Aria, the other was a preppy fashionista named Hanna.
I wasn't sure if I would know anyone else that was auditioning for the show either. I was hoping to know at least one of the other actors so I will have someone to talk to.
I have my audition tomorrow, as for today I am just studying my scripts like a crazy person. I get to read the lines in during the audition but it looks better if you already know them. It shows the producers that you take this seriously and you actually want it.
I was currently single, my boyfriend of three years Davis Henrie and I broke up a few months ago. It was hard at first but I put all my stress and sadness into my acting and singing, which really helped.

(The next day at audition)
My nerves where running high right now. There were only two people in front of me to audition, but there were a lot of people behind me in line. I had sweaty palms and I couldn't keep my legs from bouncing up and down, while sitting in my chair.
Time ticked by and my nerves only grew by the minute.
"Lucy Hale?" The guy called. I get up and walk shakily over to the door, this is about to determine my future, and how it goes. I walk into the room where there are seven other people, which made me even more nervous that I would screw up.
"So it says here you will be reading for Hanna and Aria, Is that correct?" The guy asks
"Yes sir." I say, still using my manners I was raised with.
"Alright well we you can start reading for whichever one you want first."
"I start with Aria." I tell him
"Okay start when you ready." He tells me
"You alright down there?" He reads for the guy, Ezra.
"I'm a bit jet legged, I just got back from Europe." I say not even glancing at the scrip, doing it all from memory. They all look impressed.
"Where in Europe?"
"Iceland" I say
"I spent some time in Reykjavik, before I went to Amsterdam. It's a great city." He reads
"So do you go to Hollis?"
"Just graduated, I'm going to start my first teaching job."
"Yeah I, I think I'd like to teach… God I love this song."
"B-26?.. What's your major?"
"Ah, well I'm leaning towards English…"
"That's what I'm teaching."
"Well and I write to, but so far it's personal, just for me." We continue the scene until it's over.
"Wow, that was great, you ready to read for Hanna, or should I say act for Hanna, since you remembered your lines." One of the ladies says.
"Yes ma'am I am." I start reading for Hanna, but something just doesn't feel right. I feel more like Aria then Hanna. I mean don't get me wrong if I were to get either part I would be ecstatic, but it feels more natural when I play Aria.
"Okay, we will do call backs for the top five people. Then we will make our final decision. You did amazing, you're free to leave." One of the other ladies says with a smile.
"Thank you." I say with a huge grin as I walk out of the room.
I made my way home to my two bedroom apartment that I share with one of my best friends. Her names Annie, we've been best friend since we were toddlers. I would do anything for Banan- Annie.
Banan and I are so different, not just in looks but personality, but yet we are so alike. We are just inseparable, she's my rock when I need one and I'm hers. We are always there for each other no matter what. Any time we need each other whether it be relationship or even just a bad day we both come running, and sometimes with some chunky monkey ice cream.
"Banan, I'm home!" I tell as I walk in the door. As soon as I shut the front door my MaltiPoo, jack is at my feet and Annie is walking into the room.
"Lu, how'd it go?" She asks
"Great, I think. I remembered all my lines without the script, I was so relived." I tell her
"Good, when do you find out?"
"I don't know they will do call backs for the top five, and after that they will make their final decision. So they should be callin gin the next few days." I say my country accent comes out.
"I'm sure you did great Lu, I wouldn't worry about it." She encourages me
"You're right, hey do you want to go out. I mean not like out- out, because I really want this part and I don't want to seem like a party girl. Anyway, do you want to go to dinner?" I ask
"Sure just let me change, oh by the way we need to stop at the grocery store on the way home. We're running low on everything." She tells me as she leaves the room.
"Okay, I'm going to change too!" I shout. I go into my room and change into a long fine knit jumper, some dark wash skinny jeans, a leopard printed scarf, some chocolate brown UGG's, and some simple diamond earrings. Even though my UGG's did nothing for my height like the rest of my shoes do, hint all my heels, I still love every single pair I own.
"You ready Luce?" Annie asks as she walks in.
"Yeah" I say as I finish squirting my perfume on. We walk to the door, and I say goodbye to Jack before we walk out and to my car.
"Where do you want to go, what are you craving?" I ask as we get into my car.
"Um, how do you feel about Mexican?"
"That sounds amazing!" I say as I start to drive to our regular Mexican restaurant we've been going to since we moved her together.
After dinner which was amazing might I add, we head to the grocery store. As we are walking through the aisles I see a really cute guy with brownish hair and dark brown eyes. We made eye contact but I look away immediately and keep walking.
That is the last thing I need right now, I have been hurt a lot by different guys. I think I might stay single for a little while.
"That guy was totally looking at you." Annie says making me blush.
"No Banan, he wasn't." I tell her trying to hide my blush.
"Yes he was, and you are totally blushing which means it's true! You think he's cute, don't you?" She messes with me.
"So, what if I did? Anyway it doesn't matter, I am taking a break from guys right now." I tell her
"I understand where you're coming from, I do but you don't need to swear off guys, you just have to find the right one." She tells me with a slight smile.
"Yeah I know, but for right now I'm going to focus on my career." I tell her with a small smile.
When we got home we put away the groceries together and then went to our separate rooms for the night.
"Jack- Jack!" I yell to get his attention. He comes running in but can't quite make it on the bed because he's just puppy and he's small as it is. I pick him up and put him on my king size bed. My phone starts to ring. I look at the screen that is blinking Clair- Bear on and I immediately pick up.
Clair is another one of my best friends, we've known each other for a while.
"Clair- bear!" I say into the phone.
"Luce, how did the audition go?" She asks
"Pretty good, I remembered all the lines without the script. I was so happy."
"I bet, when do you find out?" She asks. We continue to talk for a little while before we both hang up and go to bed. I snuggle with Jack and fall into a peaceful sleep.
Hope you guys liked it, let me know if I should continue! Thanks for reading -XOXO Lizzie
