"Meredith!" I hear. I open my eyes. I groan, sitting up slowly. "I'm sorry, there's not enough room to the other cells.. I'm gonna need to put someone else in here" the chief says.

I get out of the bed. I sort out my uniform quickly. He unlocks the cell, letting the woman in.

"What are you in here for?" I look at her. "Killed a man" she smirks. I look at derek. He's still asleep.

I leave the cell. "I want a guard in here at all times.. and do a full search of her" I say. "We've done one" he says. "I want another" I say.

He takes her back out of the cell. I sit on the edge of the bed. "Derek" I stroke his cheek gently. He opens his eyes slowly.

"Hey, someone is coming in the cell with you" I say. He sits up. "Okay" he says. "Its a murderer so um.. watch out?" I say. "Thanks for the help" he says sarcastically. I chuckle softly.

"There will be a guard in here.. I'll be at my desk so if you need anything then call me straight away" I say. He nods. I kiss him softly. "I love you" I say. I leave.

I go home quickly, shower and change my clothes. I grab some new clothes for Derek, some food and go back to work.

I go into the cell, staying behind the bars. Derek's sat on the floor and the girl is sat on the bed. I roll my eyes. He stands up and walks over to me.

"Here, I got you some new clothes and some food" i say. "She'll just steal it.. she's scary" he whispers. I smile small.

I look at the guard. We're known eachother I while so we're friends. "Can I take him for a little while? He won't leave the office" I say. "I really shouldn't allow you to" he sighs.

"Please" I smile. "Okay.. 15 minutes" he says. I unlock the cell and let him out. I take him to an interrogation room.

"Here you go baby" I put the food on the table infront of him. "Thankyou" he says. "Did she kick you off of the bed?" I ask. "No.. I got off voluntarily" he says.

"Really?" I ask. "Yes, I swear.. then she shouted at me for being sexist for thinking that it'd be nice to give the girl the bed" he says. I chuckle softly. "I'll get you a new one" I say.

He finishes eating his food. I eat the leftovers as he gets changed. "Here babe, I brought some wipes and your cologne" I pass it to him. He wipes his face, chest and arms and sprays some cologne on.

"What have you told my boss?" He asks. "I've been avoiding their calls.. I'm sorry, legally.. I have to tell them if one of their employees is in jail, but I really don't want to ruin your job" I say. "Its fine" he says.

"I have a lead on the case anyway" I say. "You do?" He asks. "Well, I need to find out what happened.. and this is the closest I've got to finding out" I say.

"Just don't get yourself in trouble" he whispers quietly. "I won't" I say. He kisses me. "You smell nicer" I say. "Good" he chuckles. I hold his hand. I grab our stuff, putting it at my desk before taking him back to his cell.

"Why does he get food brought in when I have to eat this shit?" The girl says, pointing at her tray. "He's sleeping with the detective" the guard chuckles.

The woman walks over, smirking at me. "No" I say. Derek chuckles. "What if I slept with him?" She asks. "Why would I want that?" I say. "I dunno.. maybe you're into that shit" she smirks. "I am not" I say.

"Come on.. what can I do for some real food?" She asks. "I don't know.. maybe don't kill people" I say. She scoffs.

I kiss him softly through the bars. "I'll get you a new bed.. I'll be right back" I say. "Okay" he says. I leave. I go to another cell. I unlock it and walk in.

"Stand up" I say to the guy on the bed. He stands up slowly. I take the mattress. "Oi! What the hell!" He yells. I close the cell behind me. I take it to Derek's cell Instead, walking in.

"Here you go" I put it on the floor at the other side of the cell to the woman. "I didn't get you the frame because I got it off of an angry meth addict and didn't want to.. well, be attacked" I shrug. He chuckles.

"Thankyou" he hugs me. "That's okay" I say. "Let go" I giggle, wriggling in his arms. The woman groans dramatically.

I put my hands on his cheeks, kissing him softly. "I'll see you in a bit.. I have some work to do" I say. "Okay" he says.

"I love you" I walk out. I lock the cell and leave, to my desk. I spend the rest of the day working on the case, trying to find our exactly what happened that day. Exactly what I did.
