oh and shoutout to the lydiastrawberryblonde and s_atuxn jjpope favourite crime edits🤞

it was all happening so fast, one minute pope jj kie and were having fun, just chatting and enjoying themselves, the next minute pope was in handcuffs, arrested for messing with toppers boat, an idea which was technically jj's.

jj watched in horror as pope was lead outside, he was so fucking angry, angry at topper, angry at shoupe and most of all angry at himself. he shouldn't of let this happen, but he had to.

what rafe and topper did to pope made jj's blood boil, there was no way he was gonna let them get away with it, and he was proud of pope for what he did, after being pushed around by the kooks for so long they finally stood their ground and had their revenge. if anything it was rafe and toppers fault for doing something revenge worthy in the first place, but jj still felt like shit, he felt part responsible for the whole thing.

jj pushed shoupe, hard, "how much did they pay you man" he asked, breathing heavily. he was trying to act tough but deep down he was scared.

heyward was now holding jj back, asking shoupe his own questions, and kie was just as clueless as him, they both had no idea what pope had done, or more so, what jj had done.

pope was in front of them all, not saying a thing, clearly in shock. jj knew how bad he must be feeling right now, he would lose his scholarship over this, everything he's ever worked for.

no, jj wouldn't let that happen.

"it wasn't him!" jj shouted, which made everyone stop arguing and turn to face him, pope included.

"it was me" he said, smiling at pope. if someone was gonna pay for this it was gonna be jj, there was no way he was about to let pope take the fall and ruin his life, no fucking way.

jj began to walk towards pope, still smiling right at him, "he tried to talk me out of it, but I was mad because he'd just been beaten up" he technically wasn't lying here. seeing pope with those bruises and that nasty cut really awoke something in jj that he himself didn't understand. in the moment he wanted nothing more than to hurt rafe and topper, to hurt them just like he hurt his pope, they needed to pay for what they'd done.

"I was so sick of those assholes from figure eight that I lost my shit" he continued, he was standing right infront of pope now, who looked at him with a concerned and scared face, that didn't stop jj though.

"I can't let you take the blame for something I did" jj smiled, "you've got too much to lose". he was right, pope was the golden boy, the one in the group with actual goals and ambitions, and jj had always admired him for that, he was always so proud.

"jj what are you doing" pope said, speaking up for the first time. from the tone of his voice jj could tell he didn't want him to do this, but this was the only way.

"i'm telling the truth, for the first time in my god damn life i'm telling the truth" jj's smile was so big now, he was glad he was doing this.

"I took his old mans boat too" jj said turning to heyward. "what the hell" he said back, he couldn't be more confused, jj reminded himself to laugh about that later.

"jj come on" pope said.

"just shut up pope" jj interrupted, "just shut up" jj continued to stare at him for a long time, he had made the right decision, anything to protect pope.

"he's a good kid, you know where i'm from" he turned to shoupe who mumbled a "yeah" in response.

pope thought for a minute about how much jj was sacrificing here, he must know that he'll be in very deep shit with his dad but yet he didn't care, he was doing all this for him.

"this was all me" jj finished, looking back at pope again proudly.

" that's the whole truth?" shoupe asked.

"whole truth swear to god" jj replied but that's not who shoupe was talking to. "I know what you think damn it i'm asking pope."

pope looked at jj, knowing there was only one thing he could say now, and as much as he felt guilty for it he was so grateful for jj, he had saved his whole life here.

"yeah that about covers it." pope said quietly, and looked up at jj who was smiling at him, even knowing what was coming for him, he was still smiling.

shoupe handcuffed jj and he got into the police car, leaving pope, heyward and kie behind.

"shit" pope shouted as he watched the car drive away, throwing his hat on the floor and storming off inside.

jj arrived at the police station and was walked to his cell, it started to feel more real now as the door was shut and locked. he sat down with his head in his hands, what had he gotten himself into, he thought to himself.

but he knew that he had done the right thing, he did it for pope, to protect him, and he didn't regret it one bit.

he took his head out of his hands and looked up with a great big smile on his face.

pope was safe now, he wasn't gonna lose out on his scholarship and he wasn't gonna get in trouble, he was safe.

and it was jj that saved him, that protected him, because that's how much he cares.

and always will.

this is canonically what he was thinking btw jpate told me himself<3
