Chapter 15 - I would

Diego dropped off both guns at the B&B before making his way back to the station.
Sighing as he walked in, he saw Ashton leaning against the front desk while Jasper sat the desk, Carter leaning up against the wall behind him.
"Where's Taylor?" Jasper asked almost instantly as he looked up to see the lone detective.
"With Merrill somewhere." Diego mumbled as he leant against the counter.
Ashton walked over to where their coffee machine was to make him one, while Jasper looked up confused.
"The guy's gone back to being her shadow?"
Diego nodded. "After what happened to Charlie, he ain't taking no more risks." He mumbled as he ran a hand down his face.
Ashton brought him over a cup as he accepted it thankfully, giving him a small smile.
"He seems so set on proving he's innocent." Carter mumbled as his arms crossed over his chest.
Diego nodded as he looked up at him, taking a quick sip of his drink.
"I've never seen a suspect behave like this." He mumbled as he took another sip.
"Never thought I'd say this," Ashton started as he looked between his fellow officers and the detective. "But maybe Merrill is actually innocent."
Jasper scoffed as he leant back in his chair. "When has he ever been innocent?!"
Neither Carter or Ashton could answer that. Ace Merrill was always guilty.
"Can you get me his arrest report up?" Diego mumbled as he took another sip.
"Oakley brought the file back, you can have that." Carter replied as he walked towards a filing cabinet.
Pulling his keys from his pocket, he unlocked the cabinet and began flicking through.
"You really think he's innocent?" Jasper asked quietly as he looked up at Ashton.
Ashton shrugged slightly. "For the first time in Castle Rock history, yeah, I kinda do."
"You're the detective." Jasper sighed as he looked up at Diego. "Where do you stand on Ace? And Tom?"
Diego shrugged slightly. "Me and Oakley are pretty much agreed on everything, including Ace's behaviour."
"He's not leaving her side." Ashton mumbled.
