Justice and Lies
Chapter 6
The next day, Katherine couldn't stand to be in her house much longer, so she reluctantly told Stefan her plans and drove over to the police station. She didn't want to work, but she at least had to talk to Matt and get his side of the story. After all she was a police officer and she always had to remember there were two sides to every story.
When she went inside. Damon gave her a reluctant look, but led her into a private room to talk to Matt. Matt's eyes were blood shot. The blue irises were dark and irritated. His lips were cracked slightly and his usually lively blonde hair was as flat as a board.
"Ms. Pierce. I am so sorry about Nadia. You have to believe me when I say I didn't kill her. I would never lay a hand on Nadia. She was my life. She was my whole world."
"I'm not accusing you of anything yet. I just want to know what happened that night. No matter how brutal or lovey dovey it is I want to know the truth. You have to tell me no matter how graphic it is. Do you understand?"
"We arrived at the party around seven. We had been talking about having sex for the first time. We were actually planning to do it later that night after things settled down. She was so beautiful as I watched her with her friends just laughing and having a good time."
"Did anyone seem like they wanted to hurt her?"
"No. That's the thing about this whole thing. No body hated Nadia. I don't understand why anyone would hurt her."
"What happened next?"
"I went to the bathroom for a brief second, but it was enough time for her to go somewhere with someone else and not be found. I asked her friends and some said they saw her going down to the basement with some guy."
"Did they have a description?"
"I didn't think to ask."
"Go on."
"When I went down to the basement, I tried over her. There was so much blood and the knife they had used to kill her was still stuck in her chest, but it was stuck on bone so I couldn't get it out easily. Then the cops came and you can guess what happened next. I had managed to pull the knife out but hovering over someone with a knife isn't exactly an innocent looking person."
"I know you loved my daughter Matt. I also know you would never disrespect her enough to rape her."
"Are you saying you believe me?"
"I'm saying that I believe you didn't do it."
"What happens now?"
"First I burry my daughter."
"Then what?"
"Then I'm going to find the guy who did this to my daughter and when I do he's as good as dead."
