Arrested

"But-"

"I don't wanna hear it Mr. Allen."

"But-"

"Can it Allen."

"But-"

A glare from Singh cut Barry's next but off short.

"I didn't do anything though," Barry grumbled, folding his arms.

Singh stomped on the brakes and pulled over, "I beg to differ. Do I need to explain what you did to you?"

Barry shook his head.

"Good."

He resumed driving.

***** FLASHBACK *****

"Kid someone's been trying to call you, I suggest you call them back because if your phone rings one more time imma blow." An officer said, grabbing Barry from the holding cell where he currently resided.

"But I only get one phone call!?" Barry asked.

"Yup," he said, "And you get to use it to call..." He looked at the name of the missed caller, "...Boss."

Barry relaxed, "oh ok."

Barry's eyes widened, "Wait no not ok! Hell kill me! I thought I get a choice!"

"Not his time kid. Hopefully your boss will bail you out."

Barry stuttered indignantly. The officer pushed him into a chair and threw the phone into his hand.

Barry sighed the sigh of a man who's accepted a terrible fate. He dialed his boss.

The phone barely rang once and Singh picked up, shouting through the phone before Barry even took a breath.

"I swear to God Allen I was this close to filing a blasted my missing persons report. Do you know how many times I've called you? Don't answer that. Regardless of the fact that I gave you the day off you can't just ignore my calls. I needed you to come in! I still need you to come in! And no I won't be paying you overtime."

Barry swallowed, "Well..."

"Oh my God Allen what did you do."

"I kinda sorta need you to maybe possibly bail me out of jail."

Silence on the other end.

"Excuse me?"

Barry gulped. He was dead. So so very dead.

"I must've misheard you, Allen." He said slowly, "I could've sworn you said you were thrown in jail."

"Well I actually said I needed to bailed out of jail..." He heard a low growl and squeaked out, "but yes you heard correctly."

"I'm going to kill you. Where are you?"

Barry sighed in relief.

***** 2 HOURS LATER *****

"You did what?" Singh asked, crossing his arms over his chest.

"Accidentally shoplifted." Barry answered.

"Do tell, how did you accidentally shoplift?"

"Well, I had picked up an item that had been misplaced and had every intention of handing it to a worker to put in the right spot. I simply forgot."

"Ok, but why then, when the officers came up to you did you not return it? Why did they have to chase you through the whole mall in order to get the item back?"

Barry said nothing.

"And why did you run through the mall screaming 'You will never steal my love from me!'?"

"They were not treating her with the respect she deserved." Barry gasped, putting a hand to his heart.

"Barry..." Singh said slowly, slightly concerned, "she's a mannequin..."

Barry glared at him, "Her name is Delores." (A/N- Those of you who understand my reference I love you.)

"Allen did you hit your head?" He asked.

"I'm in my right mind if that's what you're asking."

"Then I have no regrets doing this." Singh turned to the other officer, "Keep him here overnight, I'll come get him in the morning. And make sure to take the mannequin."

Barry gasped and the officer laughed, happily complying.

***** END FLASHBACK (BUT LATER) *****

"I rescued her."

"Allen."

"I loved her."

"Allen."

"And you killed her."

"Allen."

"Murder."

"I don't have time for this," Singh said.

"But you have time to slaughter innocents."

"I'm about to slaughter you."

"And to think I considered you a good person."

"If you don't shut up-"

"You'll kill me?" Barry asked, "At least then I'll be with my beloved Delores."

"When we get back I'm having you get your head checked out."
