  Summary

  _The first time I saw you after juvie you looked so different, in that club, dancing like you were alone you didn't look like the Ash I got to know in juvie.
  _Oh, yea ? And what did I look like then ?
  _Like a beautiful sweaty angel, you looked like you were shining. But-
  _But what ?
  _Then I looked closer and you weren't shining , you were crying.
  _________________________________________________________________________________
  What if, after sending Ash to juvenile detention to punish him Dino decided to leave him to fend for himself for a long time. And what if everything started going from bad to worst because of that.
  When left to his own device Ash realise that old habits die hard, especially when they're the only thing you know.

  Basically Ash fighting self destructive behavior and hypersexuality while trying to figure out how to be alone.
