Legal Question in Civil Litigation in North Carolina

How do me and my partner get our case dropped early, we had a drunkin spat and we both got put in jail, but neither one is pressing charges against the other. I am considered the defendent, and i told them that i would not press charges. But they still took me to jail also. Thanks for any advice. This was in n.c.
