Chapter 20- Telling the Truth

"Umm…I guess I can do that, but I just want to warn you that it's not pretty and I promise you that I am not that same man anymore. With that being said, here it goes I guess…" Punk sighed. "So as you know, Luke and I went undercover at the local MMA gym here in town all those years and it is at this MMA gym is where I met Amy. She worked there part time being the receptionist, checking people in and out of the gym and whatnot. Well at first it was just plain old flirting every time she would check me in and I thought nothing of it. To me it was all cute and innocent at the time. However the more I went there and the more that I got to know her, I began to fall in love with her. We had a whole bunch of things in common and that just drew me to her further. Luke however was skeptical of Amy and warned me not to get too close to her, because she could have been working for Heyman. I however didn't think so and I continued to fall for Amy until I got the courage to ask her out and the rest is history," he told her truthfully.

"How could that be it Phil?" AJ questioned her husband. "There has to be something else that you are not telling me considering that I had a very interesting conversation with Cassie about you earlier and the fact that you haven't even talked about the kid that you and Amy were obviously expecting," she told him as she pushed him off the bed. She hated that he was still beating around the bush.

Luckily Punk was able to catch himself before he hit the ground even though he knew that he deserved the pain of hitting the floor. He should have known better than to continue to hid the truth from AJ, but in all honesty he was terrified. "Okay fine you win, I'll tell you. You deserve to know the full truth about me," Punk said knowing that AJ would never fully trust him again until she knew who the real Phil Brooks was. "So like I said, I eventually asked Amy out and one date that eventually lead to another one and so on and so forth. Well at first everything was going great. By day I was gathering evidence on Heyman and by night I was having a working relationship for the first time in a while. However all of that changed a couple weeks into the relationship…"

Flashback…

It had been a couple weeks since Luke and Punk were able to infiltrate Heyman's operation and so far things were going great. Luke was excited with getting a lot of evidence on Heyman and making a name for himself at the police station, meanwhile Punk was feeling his own sense of excitement.

Ever since Heyman had them beat up that poor guy at the gym, Punk was feeling unstoppable. He felt like he was on top of the world. It was like beating the shit out of that guy released the beast inside of him and he like it. He like being strong and making the world around him feel weak and beneath him. It was the ultimate rush that he had never felt before.

However when he wasn't working for Heyman and hanging out with his girlfriend Amy, he didn't feel that way at all. In fact, he was feeling weak and very concerned about his girlfriend. Lately it seemed that every time he looked at his girlfriend, she began to look frail and it seemed that she was losing a lot of weight. Not only that, but she had become very paranoid as of late.

Needing to see if Amy was okay, Punk got off of work early and made his way over to the apartment that he shared with Amy from time to time. When he walked inside, he couldn't believe how horrible it looked inside. He couldn't believe how much trash and dishes were all over the place. He knew that he had been working around the clock none stop lately and hadn't been home, but there was no excuse for the place to be looking like this.

"Amy, Amy are you here?" he called out to his girlfriend as he tried to maneuver his way around the trash and clutter all over the floor. It wasn't until he got to their bedroom that he found Amy sitting on the bed rocking back and forth. "Amy? Amy are you okay, what's wrong?" he asked her very concerned as he made his way over to her.

"They're out there Phil. There out there watching me," Amy told him in a very paranoid and panicked voice as she looked out the window.

Punk just looked at his girlfriend in confusion, "Who's out there Amy? Tell me and I'll do something about it." He then got up and walked over to the window and saw nothing. He didn't know what she was talking about.

When Amy saw him looking out the window, she began to freak out. "No don't do that they'll see you!" she shouted at him as she began to jump and attack him.

"Amy what the hell stop it!" Punk shouted at her as he tried to push her off of him. Unfortunately all that did was cause them to fall to the ground and what he saw under the bed freaked him out. "Amy what is the hell is this?" he said in shock as he reached under the bed and pulled out a syringe.

"That's my good stuff baby. It makes me feel so good," Amy told him as she took the syringe out of his hand and sat on the bed. She then took out a belt from under her pillow and began to wrap it around her arm.

Punk saw what she was about to do and he couldn't believe it. "Amy no stop it!" he shouted at her and swatted the syringe away from her. He couldn't believe that Amy was about to shoot up in front of him. "What the hell is wrong with you?"

Amy just looked at him in confusion, "Nothing is wrong with me Phil, I'm just doing a little coke to lighten up my mood. Work has been stressing me out and I wanted to take the edge off a little bit."

"So this is what you do? You feel better by doing cocaine. Do you realize what you are putting into your body? This is bad for you and you need to stop doing it Amy. I don't want to see you go down a bad path to other drugs. I love you Amy and I want to help you," he told her kindly as he wrapped his arm around her.

"If you want to help me Phil, then give me back my needle. I want it and I need it," she told him as she tried to take the syringe from her boyfriend's hand.

Punk however was able to keep it from her reach, "No Amy I am not going to sit here and watch you drowned in this shit. I don't believe in using any kind of drug and if you want me to be with you, then you need to get clean fast." He didn't want to give her an ultimatum, but he felt like it was the only way to do it.

Amy however was far too gone to listen to him and quickly snatched the syringe out of his hand. When he she did that, Punk's heart sank and knew that she had made her chose. Gathering his things as quickly as he can, Punk took one last look at Amy one last time before walking out the door.

End of Flashback…

"After that I managed to stay away from Amy and focused on my work with Heyman and Luke. However after a few weeks she walks back into my life claiming that she had been clean ever since I left. At first I didn't believe her, but when she showed me her arms and I didn't see any fresh track marks, I believed her and took her back," he told AJ truthfully. Now looking back he regretted ever taking Amy back now more than ever.

"I don't get it Phil, if you knew that Amy was doing drugs, then why did you take her back? I know that you said that she claimed to be clean and you believed her, but did you ever once think that her drug abuse would come back and bite you both in the ass?" AJ asked him. If someone she loved was on drugs and chose them over her, then she would want nothing to do with them ever.

Punk just shook his head, "No never once did I believe that. All I knew was that I loved Amy and I didn't want to see her get hurt. I believed that if I was around her to watch her, she wouldn't do any drugs of any kind. Unfortunately that was my downfall and it did come back to bite in the ass like you said."

"Why what happened?" AJ asked him wanting to know more about his time in Chicago.

Punk looked down and sighed, "Heyman happened that's what. Do you remember when I told you about the guy that I killed, because he owed Heyman money? Well after that I began to freak out once my adrenaline wore off. I couldn't believe what I had just done and I wanted to forget it all. So I went home and Amy immediately knew that something was wrong. I knew that I had to tell someone, so I told her what happened and I just broke down. That's when Amy offered me something that I should have refused…"

Hey guys sorry to end it here, but I have to finish packing and start to study for more finals. I hope you liked this chapter and next time we will see what Amy offered Punk and we'll get more into the whole Amy/Punk baby issue as well. Thanks!
