Hey guys thanks for reviewing. Hope you like this next chapter

Meredith sat on her bed. It was morning. She wasn't quite sure what time in the morning. They had eaten breakfast and she was allowed to get a couple of books from the prison library. She had chosen a couple of romance novels. She figured if she had to be in jail for the rest of her life then finding a man was never going to happen, so she would read about fictional love lives. She had not seen Derek since yesterday. There conversation was brief. He had only asked her a couple of questions before leaving and she was taken back to her cell.

Christina suddenly lowered her head and looked at Meredith 'Do you really have to read?'

'I'm bored. What else would you rather we do?'

Christina sighed and flopped back on her bed 'I don't know, I have not had a roommate before and now I do and all she can do is sulk and read books'

'Sorry' Meredith half giggled, placing her book down and getting off her bed

'Tell me about being a doctor' she asked excitedly. She was going to be a doctor, which was her dream. Up until the fateful night her mother got killed.

Christina went off into her own little dream world as she looked up at the roof of there cell. 'It's amazing, the rush of being in surgery is indescribable, helping people and making there lives better, I miss it so much'

'Then why did you do it'

Christina looked over at Meredith 'It doesn't matter'

Meredith thought she could see tears in her eyes but Christina quickly wiped them away before Meredith could say anything.

'I'm sorry' Meredith sighed 'I'm sorry I upset you'

'You didn't, it's just hard that's all'

Sitting back down on her bed she chuckled

'What?' Christina demanded

'This is just crazy, I'm here for something I didn't do and well you did something but it was not murder. I don't know where my life went wrong'

'I hear ya Mer' Christina also chuckled

Meredith had a feeling her and Christina would be great friends. They didn't need to say much to know how they were feeling.

After lunch Meredith was deep into her book. Christina had decided to have a sleep and could be heard snoring lightly from her top bunk.

Meredith was startled by a tapping at the bars and a small cough. Pulling out of her trance she looked up and saw Derek standing there. He held in his hands two coffee's and a bag of food.

'Let's go, I have some more questions for you' he instructed as the guard un-locked the door and let Meredith out. She followed up the isle of the cells and out into the outdoor court area where the inmates had there free time and daily exercise.

They made there way over to a line of caravans and Derek opened the door to one.

'Thanks' He nodded to the guard, the guard then turned and walked away leaving the two of them alone

'Are they allowed to leave?' she asked

'Well no but I need to interview you and I don't want to be disturbed'

'So how did you get rid of him' she giggled

Derek couldn't help but love her giggle. It brought a smile to his face. He quickly wiped it off and turned to her as they entered the caravan 'I bribed him' He laughed

'Oh' Meredith said and took a seat at the table. She looked around and took in the caravan she was now sitting in with her lawyer. There was a double bed in there complete with a toilet and sink and a couple of plastic cups.

'Is this where you go if you have good behaviour' she looked up at Derek

He smiled at her 'um you could say that' She was naïve, her innocence and beauty had Derek in a state. He couldn't take his eyes off her 'It's where couples go to fool around'

'Oh, well that explains the bed' she blushed 'so why are we in here'

Derek smirked to himself. 'Because I want to ask you some more questions'

'Well you could ask me in the room we were in yesterday' she said putting her hand up to her mouth and nibbling her nails.

'I like privacy, plus in here is more comfortable'

'So how long do we have?' She questioned, it was cosy and warm and there was a bed. It wasn't clean or sanitized but it was a lot better than her cell. She wanted to stay in here.

'As long as it takes' He smiled 'Let's get started'

He handed her one of the coffee's and pulled out a chocolate muffin from the bag and gave it to her. Her eyes lit up like child who had just been given lollies

She quickly skulled back the now Luke warm coffee 'My god I needed that' She smiled after downing the whole thing.

'Glad to be of service' Derek grinned, He tried to push the over whelming feeling he was having for this girl out of his head but couldn't. Every time he looked at her he felt intense desire. He could feel himself twitch with want and need.

'So I want you tell me about your mother, in your own words'

Meredith looked up at Derek 'She was a bitch'

'Ok, I'm going to need you to elaborate'

'Sorry' Meredith sighed 'I just never got on with her, we argued a lot. She told me how I disappointed her all the time. I should have been at college years ago but I decided to travel for a while. It was just another disappointment to her'

'Do you know anyone who would want to hurt her or see her dead?'

Meredith shrugged and lightly laughed 'Everybody she ever worked with, hell probably most of Seattle'

'Yeah I did notice she was not that well liked'

'She was respected, that was enough for her'

Derek smiled lightly as there eyes caught each others, Meredith's skin broke out in Goosebumps as she shied away from his stare

'I know your innocent Meredith, I see it in your eyes, and I see it in your beautiful smile' he whispered placing his hand over her tiny one. He instantly felt a wave of emotion wash over him. He had never touched her skin before. He had admired it but never dared to touch her. He had crossed the line. She was his client, He had always been so focused yet Meredith changed that.

'What….what else' Meredith tried to spit out what she was trying to say, Derek had tongue tied her. 'What else do you want…to know'

'Tell me about Alex'

'Well we dated for about 6 months, things were going ok. He knew I was going to college, so that put a hold of somewhat on things'

Derek realised his hand was still on top of hers. He removed it promptly, the room became awkward; they sat there looking around trying not to catch each others eye.

'What was his relationship like with your mother?' He asked trying to continue with the interview

'They never really spoke, but I do remember one night I came home from work and they were arguing in the kitchen. I didn't really hear what it was about. I asked him later but he just said it about me'

Derek was writing, thoughts' swirling in his head, Alex was definitely a suspect. He needed to talk to him. But then again, it could have been anyone. Ellis grey had a long line of enemies.

'What did you do on the night of her murder?'

Meredith hesitated, Derek instantly noticed this.

'Meredith'

'I was at work; I came home and went to bed'

'Where do you work?'

'What has that got to do with anything?' she snapped

'Because I am your lawyer Meredith and you want to get out of prison then I need to know'

'What bloody relevance would where I work have to do with the murder of my mother' she spat

Derek had picked up a vibe from her, obviously she did something she was not proud of. 'Meredith, I don't care what profession you decided to go into, I just need to know ok'

Meredith shuffled around in her seat trying to get comfortable 'I was a stripper ok!' she almost yelled

'A stripper?' Derek asked needed extra confirmation

'Yes a stripper! I didn't enjoy it. I was trying to save money for college. When I decided to travel my mother cut my money for college and said if I ever wanted to go I would have to pay for it myself' She cried tears welling up in her eyes

Derek got up from his chair and pulled her onto the bed, He instinctively wrapped his arms around her and rubbed her back soothingly.

'Calm down Mer' Damn it he had called her Mer again

Meredith's tears fell freely down her cheek, Derek could see the pain she was in. She had a rough childhood and now this. He was amazed how well she had coped. She seemed like a normal young woman.

Slowly her raised her face and wiped away her tears with his thumb 'Stop crying, everything will work out ok'

'Promise' she whimpered

'I promise'

There eyes locked and the feeling went through his body again. He could feel his body rising to the occasion at there closeness. She moved her face into his and there lips met. Derek subconscious was screaming to him that this was wrong but he couldn't stop, her lips were soft and felt amazing and sensual against his. He suddenly found himself on top of her cupping her soft breast in his masculine hand.

A small moan escaped from her lips as his mouth trailed down to her neck

'Oh god Derek' She moaned in ecstasy

She could feel his erection pushing into her. She needed him, she had never felt like this before. Neither had he. He was never one to cross the lines. He was by the book and never let himself have genuine feelings. Meredith was different, he couldn't help but want to touch her and kiss her and run his tongue up her body.

Suddenly out of no where Meredith jumped up and pushed Derek off her

'Oh my god, im so sorry, I should never of kissed you. Oh shit, this is bad, so bad, im so sorry, please still be my lawyer. I need you. I need to get out of here…..'

Derek grabbed her arms 'Meredith stop rambling'

'Im sorry I just it was wrong of me, I'm sorry' she panicked

Derek was in equal shock. He should never have kissed her back. This was bad, very bad. How was he supposed to defend her now, when all he could think about was kissing her again and touching her beautiful face? He had to get out of there.

'Look everything is fine, I just think we should rap it up here, I will come and ask you some more questions tomorrow, ok'

'ok' Meredith whispered not daring looking at him

'I'm sorry Meredith that was just as much my fault as it is yours. It was crossing the line. But I will still defend you. Let's just pretend it didn't happen'

'Ok, yeah pretend it didn't happen, I can do that' She lied…………

Ok hope you like it. Read and review if you do

They will be in that caravan again and who knows what will happen…..
