A/N: Includes mention of abuse. Sorry. :( Blame Mary-Lou.
Everyone assumed that you had initially met Credence at a NSPS rally when in actual fact, you stumbled across him cowering in an alleyway after that * insert string of curse words * of a "woman", had hurt that precious, little bean.
Once you saw the state he was in- physically and emotionally- you knew that you couldn't leave him alone, you had to help him.
But more on that later.
