Thankyou for the lovely and positive reviews. I honestly could not wait to continue to write this story so here it is.

Really not that happy with this chapter as I think it's a bit rushed. I wrote it this way so later on we see more of Lucy overcoming her problem and Ian helping her as it will be better.

Please continue to review and support this story and my other one. Thankyou again x

Lucy's POV

'I can't do this anymore Ian' I said trembling 'everyday it feels as if I have to climb a mountain'

'Talk to me Luce' he said whilst holding me tight in his arms

'The interview was about my past, but my past is still present'

'I dont understand' Ian replied

'I'm still struggling with my eating Ian, Things aren't good between me and Chris and I try so hard in everything I do but nothing seems to be going right at the moment'

'Lucy you know im here for you right?' He said trying to calm me down

Everything i have ever felt for Ian got stronger in those five minutes. I knew he was caring but this made me see a whole new side of Ian. I didn't care if Chris knew about this, I needed to tell someone and I'm happy that it was Ian.

'I know' was all I could manage to say whilst I sobbed into his tear-stained t-shirt

'I love you goose, and im going to do everything I can to help you get through this' he said and kissed my head softly

'I don't want your help Ian'

'You have a problem and we are going to overcome it together'

I answered his reply with yet more tears

Ian's POV

I couldn't believe what Lucy was telling me. The poor thing. I'm just glad she told me and hopefully I can help her sort it out. Lucy although small and tiny does need to eat, and im going to do everything in my power to make sure she is happy.

'Im taking you back to my apartment' I said after a few minutes.

I pulled out of the embrace and got my phone out to phone Marlene. Although Lucy's sobs were now more controlled you could still hear her and I knew she was still upset. I just hoped Marlene understood.

'Hi Marlene'

'Good morning Ian, are you late? you're not on set yet?'

'Marlene, I have Lucy in the car and she isn't doing so good, do you mind if we take the day off?'

'Ian, I can hear her in the back ground, she sounds awful. Just look after her, and make sure you give me an update on her later'

'I will thankyou Mar' I said hanging up the phone

The drive back was quiet, and I just couldn't wait to get her back to my apartment and try to understand what she was going through

Lucy's POV

10 minutes later we arrived back at his apartment, he led me through the door and sat me down on the couch pulling me into yet another big hug.

We sat there in silence for a few minutes until Ian backed away

'Let me listen Lucy, you can tell me as little or as much as you want' he said honestly looking into my tear filled eyes

'It all started as a young girl, I was getting bullied at school for loving singing and people would say mean comments about me and I just became self-conscious and isolated. I would go days without eating and when I did eat, I would go to the gym or did sport to burn it all off. I hated myself for doing that to my body, but it was all I could do to make me happy. Although I wasnt. I started to realise I had a problem and I got some help. But I guess I never really got out of that cycle'

'And what about now?' said Ian

'When pretty little liars started I began feeling more confident again, I was eating normally and I was actually enjoying life. That was until I met Chris. At first things were amazing, he made me feel special and took me out on romantic evenings and that, but now all he does is shout at me. He often tells me how stuck up I am or how im not even that good of a singer. He makes me feel rubbish. I don't even know why im telling you this Ian, I should go'

I stood up getting ready to leave, when I felt a strong hand pull me back onto the sofa. Of course it was Ian's and I ended up sitting on his lap

'You are telling me this Lucy because I am your friend and I want to help you'

'Im so sorry' i said sobbing into his t-shirt once more

'shh' he replied comforting me by rubbing my hair 'I will always be here for you

It seemed like hours had gone by before I began to speak again

'About 2 months ago it started getting bad again, I remember the old tricks from when I was younger. You eat certain things at certain times, you trick your body into thinking your full by drinking water. Anything I could do to try to make my life better I did and I guess still do. It's hard Ian, i don't know what you want me to say. I just want all this pain to go away'

'It will Lucy, I promise' was the last thing I heard before drifting off to sleep in his arms

How was it?
