    Summary

    “I’m just saying, that wasn’t the first time I felt you looking at me tonight.” Lucy doesn’t know what's making her so emboldened – maybe it’s the tequila, maybe it’s the fact that she’s already felt Tim’s fingers when they were dancing – but she doesn’t hate the way the words sound coming out of her mouth. It feels dirty, in a way, telling the truth.

    Summary

    “We’re not going to the club in any official capacity – I’m not getting wired up. Neither are you,” Lucy pursed her lips, “or is that against every fiber of your being?”

    Tim huffed. “We shouldn’t go out without something. That’s just a recipe for disaster, Chen.”

    Summary

    Tim slides his palm over the tear in the kneecap of her jeans, her skin smooth and warm against his calloused hand. “You’re fine just how you are.”

    He watches as she sets her glass down and turns towards him, her knees knocking against his thigh. “You do appreciate me, don’t you?”

    PART II: After DOD Tim checks up on Lucy, still affected by what they did after the quarantine house... (ch4-5)
    ___

    A look, a step toward him, and then—before his mind can comprehend what’s happening—she hugs him. He goes completely still as her arms come around him, her body, warm and soft, pressing into him. It’s odd to hold her; his own hands settle on her back only reluctantly.
