Moving On

Undivided

~ Denis' POV ~

Shit. I look at Ben then at Layla.

"Help her out, get her stuff on the bus, I'll clear this all up." I nod at Ben who immediately starts to react. He's good about getting stuff done, when he's sober. Cam heard me and starts to grab her bag from the bed of the truck. I slid out and past Ben, shakily walking toward the cop and the very pissed off looking Macy.

"Come on love," I faintly hear Ben say. I'm glad the guys like Layla, I just hope this can all blow over and we can get on the road. I put on a smile as I approach the officer, who's just a bit shorter than me.

"Hello sir, what can I do for you?" I glance at Macy and offer a smile, but all I get back is more hateful glaring. Lovely.

"Well. Mr.Stoff-" he stops and looks back at the phone with a pink case I assume is Macy's.

"Please call me Denis," I say keeping my smile on. He nods and shifts, handing the phone back to her.

"So why don't you tell me about what happened at Ms. May's home last night?" he says it very pointedly. I nod and jump into explaining.

"Well. I took Layla home and a guy showed up, grabbed her, i pulled him off and he got physical with me." it was the truth, I didn't throw the first punch, Josh did.

"Liar." Macy remarked smirking.

Ben stepped up next to me. I glance at him and just by his look I know Layla is okay and in the bus. She's in good hands.

"Denis, I have been told a very different story, I'm going to have to take you in until all this gets sorted out." He takes out his cuffs from his belt and as my heart jumped to my throat. Oh God.

~ Layla's POV ~

Im sitting in the bus listening to Cam and James joke around. Sam is quietly sitting next to me. He wants to know what happened, all of them did, but I was more worried about Denis, the cop and Macy. I watch as the cop slips out handcuffs and Ben jump in front of Denis. Oh God no. No no no no! Denis waves him aside and lets the man put them on him. NO! I get up quickly, but SAm grabs me.
"Don't you'll only make things worse. We will get him back within an hour or two, okay?" he was barely whispering in my ear and Cam and James stared out the bus window and Denis was shoved in the back of the patrol car. Ben quickly walked to the bus and in.

"Oi! What the hell happened!" he was yelling. Yelling at me. I take a shaky breath and start explaining, explaining everything. He nods along with what I say until I finish. The guys are all watching me closely.

"Well let's go get Denis back shall we?" he said it smirking, I had a feeling this involved something illegal, but they wouldn't be that stupid... Right?

~ Denis' POV ~

Well great. I was shoved in a questioning room all alone. They couldn't keep me here long, Macy and Josh had lied, the Guys and Layla would come tell them what happened. I'd be out of here in no time.

I shift as a guy who's short, fat and bald walks in with a coffee cup in his hand, and a file. My file.

"Well Mr. Stoff, I am Tony. I just want to ask about what happened." he smiles slightly and looks at me. I nod and shift again, these cuffs hurt.

"Just like I told the last guy, Josh touched Layla, grabbed her, I pulled him off her, and then he started attacking me." I said it calmly, but really, I was agitated and wanted to get out of here. They thought I was guilty, and no matter what I said I would be.

"Okay, denis, I can call you Denis correct?" when I nodded he continued. "Well. Josh has 4 broken ribs. So that tells us you did attack him. It was not just self defense."
