Langst one shots

Abuse/highschool AU

Lance didn't live in a great household after his mom died. So his dad got remarried, and got a new job. So his dad was never really around anymore. So that left an abusive step-mother. He tried to tell his friends but it didn't work. They knew he liked attention and thought he just wanted attention. It went like this for weeks. You could see the occasional bruise but he was on the baseball team. So they thought nothing of the bruises. This happen for months. Lance wanted proof but they wouldn't believe him.
Lance let his shoulders slump as he closed his locker. He zipped up he bag and started to walk home. He would usually take the bus but, after his dad got remarried his step-mom wanted him home quicker than the bus could get him. If he was late he'd get a hit for every minute he was late. He looked at his phone and had 10 messages asking where he was. He sighed he still had 20 minutes to get home before he was late. He was only 5 minutes away so he kept his pace. When he walked into his house he heard yelling. He cringed Marco was screaming at their step mom. Saying was a bitch she is. He heard a loud thud. He dropped his bag and ran up stairs. Marco was on the ground.
"Jessica what the hell!"
"Lance this isn't you fight!"
He felt a slap to his face.
"Jessica listen to me. If you hit any of us again I am going to call the police."
Marco looked at him with horror in his eyes last time this happened Veronica was locked in her room for a week.
"Oh would you?"
"Yes." Lance held up his phone with 911 all ready dialed he just needed to press call. Marco was trying to get up to help Veronica who was out cold or call before Lance could. Lance thumb hovered over the call button. Jessica started to beat Lance. He thumb hit the dial button. While Lance was getting the shit beat out of him, Marco managed to grabbed Lances phone.
"911 is everything ok? What's your emergency."
"I'm at 26863 chestnut street in Farly estates, my house number is 285 please our step mom is beating us." He ended the call. Lance was on the ground he didn't seem to be conscious anymore, but she was still beating him. She stopped and got a belt and went back to Marco. Veronica was still out cold same with Lance. Marco was strong. He needed to protect them. He wanted to protect them. There was a knock at the door. She stopped. Got up kicked Marco and Lance on the way down stairs.
"Hello?"
"Hi we got a call about domestic violence from this house, may we come in?"
"Oh it must have been a prankster I am home alone." Marco could hear the slight talking from down stairs he tried to gather his breath.
"Help please!" Marco yelled with all his might.
"What was that?"
"Oh probably just my cat Marco."
"Mhm can we please come in? We still need to see if everything is ok."
"Everything is fine."
Marco started to yell again
"Help is please! We're hurt!"
"Alright we're coming in." The Police walked up the stairs and started to look in each room until they found them. When they found them, they saw Marco in the corner with Veronica, and Lance was near the entrance of the room. They all had damage and needed to be tended to. Soon enough the ambulances came and took them to the hospital while the police deal with Jessica. She was taken to the police station with 3 charges of domestic violence. And 2 charges on attempted manslaughter. Lance was in the worst condition. Veronica was waking up. Marco was getting a splint on his arm. The put them in a room together. When Lance woke up he turned to the side to see Veronica and Marco. He smiled knowing that they were safe. He looked at the TV it was a trial. He looked at looked at the person on trial his eyes widened.
"Veronica, Marco!"
"What! Are you ok?"
"Look at the TV!"
They looked up.
"Will the defendant  please rise. Jury how do you judge the defendant."
"We find the defendant guilty of attempted manslaughter of Lance McClain and Veronica McClain. And domestic abuse against Marco McClain, Lance McClain, and Veronica McClain."
" Jessica McClain I find you guilty. 80 years in prison with no chance of parole."
They sat up in awe. They were free! Free of her hell! They could feel safe in their home. When Lance got back to school his friends apologized for not believing him. Maybe now they will believe him, when something goes wrong.
