Summary
Both detectives look at Lucy.
“What?”
“You’re going to have to, well...” Angela starts.
“Be pretty intimate with him,” Nyla finishes. “You’ll have to treat him like any other client.”
The thought did occur to Lucy, of course, but she knows she’ll do what she needs to to get the job done. It’ll be a bit awkward, of course, but she and Tim are professionals. So, she responds with an easy shrug and says, “Yeah. I get it. I’ll have to give him lap dances while half naked. It’s fine. He’ll be fine, too.”

Summary
Thunk. Thunk. Thunk.
Shit.
He steeled himself before pushing away from the counter and rounding the corner to his small foyer. He took a long swallow of his bourbon before he twisted the knob to open the door.
“Lucy.”

Summary
“It’s not like you were going to propose or something.”
Tim immediately freezes, and so does she. Damn. Why the hell did she say that out loud? She hadn’t meant to, but it’d been on the top of her mind, and it just...slipped out. She opens her mouth to correct herself, but nothing comes out fast enough.
Oh, no. She knows that expression on his face. She’s made him incredibly nervous, and now he doesn’t know what to do or say. Her face goes hot despite the rain, and she has the terrible, immediate sense that she has just stepped directly on the thing they have both been carefully walking around.
“Would it have been so bad?” he eventually asks.
Lucy blinks, not sure what he’s asking. “What?”
“If I proposed,” he clarifies.

Summary
Anyone looking for a fic where Tim suddenly gains the ability to hear Lucy's thoughts?? Given the fact that she's still his Rookie, Tim's probably going to be in for a surprise when secrets suddenly become nonexistent between them.
----------
Other officers can quote protocol all they want – he knows what it feels like to be trapped behind a wheel, desperate to know if the person next to you is still breathing. He’s lived it far too many times. Procedure doesn’t account for the sheer terror of those moments, the icy grip of helplessness. No checklist can.Which was why, when the world exploded in a symphony of squealing tires and shattering glass, Tim’s first coherent thought wasn’t about the pain in his chest where the seatbelt had caught him or the warm trickle of blood moving down his forehead from where his skull had connected with the window. It was about the rookie currently sitting in his passenger seat.

Summary
What would Tim Bradford do if he woke up one day and realized the life he remembered wasn’t the one he was living?
-----
The door creaks open mid-sentence, and Tim’s words falter immediately. Lucy steps into the room, and her presence is like a sudden shift in the air. Finally, they can get out of here. His full attention slides her, but all previous frustration he felt is momentarily eclipsed by something else.She’s been crying. It’s written all over her face, plain as day. Her eyes are red and glassy, the faint puffiness beneath them in addition to her slightly pink nose making her look far more vulnerable than he’s used to seeing. Even her posture betrays her; she’s standing too stiffly, her arms wrapped tightly around her midsection as though she’s holding herself together by sheer will alone.
Angela might actually have a point.
If he didn’t feel bad enough before, he sure does now.
