Chapter One: I Need Your Help

Hey guys! I just wanted to let you know that this is a very new thing to me because this is the first fanfic I have ever written... I am French but I do have an English editor so if there are any mistakes, I am sorry! It's a Lucian (Lucy Hale and Ian Harding) fanfic based on their lives together as a couple. I have heaps of ideas for it and I really hope you enjoy reading it :)

Lucy's POV

It was a cool Friday night, the wind was blowing the leaves on the trees and I could feel it in my hair as I walked out of the bar. Troian and I had decided to go out after a full day of filming for Pretty Little Liars. Since the show had begun, we started hanging out with each other. She's always been there for me and she always will be, same goes for me. I'm very grateful to have her as a friend. We always laugh and have a good time when we're together and we'd pretty much be lost without each other. Tonight was one of those nights, full of laughter, smiles… and alcohol. We'd been dancing and drinking the whole night. When one of us was on the dance floor, the other was singing the song that was playing. Our voices were broken and our bodies were aching but we didn't mind because we had a lot of fun. As we were leaving the place I heard Troian.

"Shit!" she said with a broken voice.

As I turned back to see what was going on I started laughing as I saw her on her ass in the middle of the walkway. We were so drunk and then she started laughing too. After a second, I started walking toward her to help her. She took my hand and pulled herself up and back on her feet. After walking for a couple of minutes, I felt something was missing.

"Crap!" I said putting my hand around my neck "Troian, I forgot my scarf! I need to go back and get it."

As I tried to run back to the bar, still half drunk, I could hear Troian laughing from behind me. A little smile grew on my face when I turned around and looked at her. After many efforts, I was finally in front of the bar and headed inside. After searching for my precious scarf, I spotted it, grabbed it and walked back out to Troian. I absolutely love this scarf. One of my closest friends, Ian Harding, gave it to me as a birthday gift for my 25th. I love scarfs but this one is more precious to me than any others I have. We've been great friends since the beginning of PLL and have gown closer as the show has progressed. I couldn't ask for anything more. Well, I guess I could but I'm not sure if I want to.

Linking Troian's arm with mine, we walked down the deserted streets, only illuminated by the law light of the lamp posts. After a few minutes of walking and talking, we were standing in front of the apartment I was living in.

"God tonight was..." Troian started to say. We both looked at the other and said together,

"CRAZY!" we started laughing so hard, I wouldn't be surprised if the whole neighborhood woke up.

"Yes, it was," I said between laughs "We definitely have to do it again."

"Anytime." she said, smiling at me and walking closer to me to give me a hug "Goodnight, Goose. Call me if you need anything."

"Sure thing, night Troi." I said hugging her back.

Grabbing my keys from my purse I walked into the apartment building and stepped into the elevator. I pushed the button of my floor and waited until I had reached it. Once I heard the ding of the elevator, the doors opened and I got out. I opened the door to my apartment and walked in.

"Hey babe, I'm back!" I said, loud enough for my boyfriend, Adam Pitts, to hear me if he was still awake. Hearing nothing but silence, I closed the door, "Adam?" once again, nothing. He was probably already asleep. Putting my purse on the coffee table in the living room, I was walking by my bedroom, which I share with Adam when he stays over, and I suddenly stopped when I heard a noise. That's weird, it sounds a lot like... moaning? I started walking faster to the room and reached for the handle. I pushed the door open and light up the room.

"WHAT THE HELL?!" I shout as I see what's happening in my bed. Adam was naked, lying on top of another woman! Their clothes were scattered all around the bedroom. She was screaming his name while he was moaning in pleasure. They were panting heavily and you could clearly see that they were both covered in a layer of sweat. When she saw me she tried to hide her bare chest and body with my sheets but there was no use, I had already seen everything. Adam instantly stopped kissing her and looked at me. I could see the surprise on his face and the horror in his eyes.

"WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE?!" I yell in furor. Well, I obviously knew what was going on. My damn boyfriend and an unknown woman were having sex in my bed.

"Lucy, it's not what you think it is," Adam said putting his boxers back on.

"It's not what I think it is?! So you're not cheating on me?" I say ironically, trying to contain my rage when a single tear falls down my cheek. The woman who was sleeping with Adam was trying to pick up her clothes and quickly put her bra and panties on. She grabbed the rest of her clothing, not wanting to be in there any loner and ran out of the room, fleeing the apartment. Within a second, Adam was standing in front of me, begging for me to listen to him.

"Luce, please listen to me. I can explain it." He said taking my hands in his looking at me like a poor lost puppy and asking for mercy and forgiveness.

"Let go of me!" I scream, removing his hands from mine "You're not going to explain anything to me! You don't have to, I already understand the fact that you cheated on me Adam, and that's all it matters!" I said as I left the bedroom toward the living room. Adam quickly threw some clothes on and followed me grabbing my arm.

"Let go of me Adam! I don't want anything to do with you anymore so leave me alone and get the fuck out of my apartment right now!" I shout at him, but he doesn't move. He still has ahold of my arm and he then grips them tighter.

"I said, LET GO OF ME!" I shout even louder as I try to remove my arm from his hands but he is too strong. I turn around and look at him. I don't see the desolation in his eyes anymore. No, it's purely anger and violence now.

"I don't care how long we're here for, you're going to listen to me!" he yelled at me with firmness.

"NO! I don't want to hear any of it! I don't want to see you again! I don't want to hear from you, EVER!" I yelled at him "We'r-" I started to say.

"DON'T YOU DARE FINISH THAT SENTENCE!" he bawled at me.

"I will Adam! WE ARE OVER! I'm so done with you! So leave, NOW!" I shrieked back at him.

"You bitch!" he said, finally letting go of my arm, but only two seconds later he raised his hand and slapped me with all his force that had built up in is body. I instantly fell down to the floor of the living room, my head hitting the ground forcefully. I then heard him walking out of the apartment, slamming the door behind him, leaving me on the floor with my bleeding forehead and cheek. I tried to get up, but my body fell back down again. I curled up into a ball, my arms around my legs, and knees in my chest with my head buried in them. The tears that had been building up in my eyes started to trickle down my face and I started to sob, I felt so miserable. My face and head ached immensely. That bastard cheated on me and then had the audacity to slap me. He's the one who made mistake, and I'm the one being punished for it. Thinking of how I wasted my time with him makes me feel sick, I'm ashamed to have ever loved him. After 15 minutes of crying, and lying on the cold hard wooden floors, I decided to get up. I reach for my purse that was on the coffee table to retrieve my phone and make a call. After three rings, the person picked up.

"Hello, Lucy?" I hear.

I started sobbing hysterically "I need your help" I say in my tears.
