Author's note: Okay I've never been arrested nor do I know anyone who has so I'm sorry if this chapter is completely unrealistic
Chapter 36
(During Raw 2 25 13)
Crue sat alone in his house watching Raw; even watching Aj as Ryback defeated "Ziggy" failed to bring a smile to his face. All of a sudden he found himself thinking about many years ago, the first time Aj had got him into trouble
(8 years earlier)
Crue was walking Aj home after her attacking the girl at the bar, something Crue still couldn't believe, they had been walking in silence. well him walking her skipping, when a police car pulled up alongside them and the officer requested them to come over. "Where you two at The Gasworks bar earlier tonight?" he questioned "Yes" Aj answered "okay you have been accused of assault you're going to have to come with me and answer a few questions" he told her "wait how do you know it was her" Crue interrupted "The victim said she was attacked by a short dark haired girl who was pulled off of her by a guy in a leather mask that's a pretty specific description" Crue, thinking quickly, responded "yeah well 'the victim' has it backwards she didn't attack her I did she's the one who stopped me" Aj was shocked, what was Crue thinking. "Really?" the police officer said, not sure whether to believe him or not "come on man" Crue continued "look at the two of us which one would you think is more likely to commit assault?" the officer had to admit the masked man did seem a lot more threatening than the barely five foot tall girl "alright look" Crue said "if you look up my record you'll see that I have been in several mental institutions and have had several episodes of sub psychotic rage you look her up you won't find a thing how bout this you take us both down to the station and look up our names?" the officer agreed and just like Crue thought they immediately believed his story as soon as they saw his record and drove Aj home. As it turned out the girl refused to press charges on Crue and kept insisting that it was Aj who attacked her, with her word against Crues and no witnesses (luckily the girl hadn't been smart enough to bring any) Crue was released in the custody of Nic's parents. Nic's mom drove him home where Nic's dad was waiting "I thought we taught you better then that" he said "I can't believe you would be physically violent with a girl" Crue just stood there silently he wasn't going to tell him what really happened, he was not going to allow Aj to get in trouble for defending him even if he thought it was foolish of her to do so "now I have no choice" Nic's dad continued "you're out of the house" by this time Aj, who had come over when Nic had called to tell her that Crue had been released, had snuck out of the basement and heard what had been said "IT WAS ME" she screamed "Aj what are you do…"Crue tried to say, but Aj cut him off "it's the truth she called him a freak and I got mad he doesn't deserve that and he definitely doesn't deserve to be kicked out" Aj was now on the verge of tears "alright Aj calm down" Nic's dad said, his tone softening considerably, he then turned to Crue "is that true" he asked Crue nodded "alright well we need to talk about this so why don't you take Aj home" Crue nodded again once they were outside Crue finally spoke "alright what the hell was that all about?" "What?" Aj responded "you got me out of trouble I got you out of trouble we're even" "no Aj there's a difference it didn't matter if people thought that I attacked some girl everyone already knows I'm a nutcase when people find out you attacked someone that'll ruin your whole reputation" not bothered Aj responded slyly "so I guess you owe me? " "alright what do you want" Crue asked, instantly regretting he had opened his mouth at all "I want a chance to get close to you" Aj said simply "look Aj I didn't just not want to be your boyfriend because you're a geek it's also because I'm not exactly perfect boyfriend material" Aj looked disappointed "but I could always use a friend" Crue continued "so… friends?" Crue asked "Sure" Aj answered
