Let me start by saying that I know you people want me to fix it. And I will. After this chapter, cause in this chapter I kinda wanna have a good old questioning. And it may be brutal but bear with me people. Patience is a sweet fruit of a bitter plant. Now that we have that out of the way, on with the chapter...

Derek Shepard was a good man, when he was small he had never lied, never got into trouble, he was a model citizen and that's why he never imagined himself sitting where he was, waiting to be questioned. He was waiting there when officer Pedro came in, Derek knew him, he had saved his 8 yards old daughter. "Dr. Shepard, you'll be questioned in some minutes by Detective Dawson."

"I didn't do it." said Derek "I know you all think that I did, but I didn't. I would never hurt her.". "I know that, Doc but you're going to be questioned by our new detective and she can be brutal." said Pedro "I know you wouldn't have done it. You're a good man, you saved my Lily. But sorry, I cannot help you."

Derek just sat there as Pedro left the room. And entered a female Detective in her early 40s with black hair tied in a braid. She looked like a stern detective. "So, Derek Shepard. The boys at the station worship you. They are confident that you can never kill someone, well guess what history begs to differ." said detective Dawson "Where we're you at the night that Meredith Grey was shot ?"

"I was in the hospital." said Derek. "Well, your cellphone records began to differ." said Detective Dawson "You were around your home weren't you ?". "Yeah, cause I was going home." said Derek. "To make it up to her. We had gotten into a little fight at the hospital.". "A little fight, huh ?" said Detective Diamond "According to the five people we asked, it had gotten a little intense, with you grabbing her hand violently.". "That's cause I got a little too angry." said Derek "People do bad things when they are angry."

"Like shooting a person ?" said Detective Diamond "You had grabbed her hand so violently that it had left marks Derek.". "I told you, I wasn't thinking straight." said Derek in his defence. "Well, you were being a little too angry nowadays, weren't you?" said Detective Dawson "She messed up your alzheimer's trial and you lost the child you were gonna adopt. And you blame this on her, don't you?". "I may blame her." said Derek "Doesn't mean I'd kill her. I love her."

"Hah!" said Detective Dawson with a sarcastic half-laugh "You're a great one to talk about love! Should I remind you that you lied to her and didn't tell her you were married until your wife showed up in front of her." Derek had not seen this coming, digging up her past, just so she could prove that he did something that he didn't.

"Hit a soft spot, didn't I ?" said Detective Dawson "You were the one who wanted to get married, the one who wanted to adopt a child, you also were the one who wanted to build a house, it seems like you are the one who was the driver of the relationship. The one who made all the decisions. What happened, Derek, did she take away the control from you and you snapped. It seems that Meredith had taken insurance policies on her name. She is worth $2 million. So, the question is, is she worth more dead than alive to you ?". "That's ridiculous! I would never harm Meredith. I care for her too much to do that." said Derek , somewhat angry at the situation, somewhat angry at himself.

"Well the marks on her hand beg to differ." said Detective Dawson "And you didn't feel bad to emotionally scar her, did you? You literally told her that if she doesn't marry you, you'll break up with her. That's too much now isn't it? And also what's with the whole wife business. First you say you love her, then your wife shows up, then you just say 'sorry' and then when she tells you to choose her , you try to make it work with your wife. And when she was dating, you were not happy, you kept giving her hope and then taking it away. That's emotional manipulation, isn't it ? You say you're happy now but you aren't. You all constantly fight day after day. And you don't even try to understand that what she did was for a reason.".

"Would you stop?" said Derek "Yeah, there are flaws, yeah our relationship isn't perfect, but I would never go as far as killing her." Derek's phone beeped. It was a page. "I have to take my phone.I am a doctor." said Derek. "You do realize you're in the middle of a police investigation." said Detective Dawson.

"My response can save lives." said Derek. "You might have taken the life of your wife of all I know!" said Detective Diamond "What's it about?". "It's Meredith. She's awake." said Derek "I have to go.". "Well, I'm coming with you." said Detective Dawson "I need an official statement.".
