Summary
She was supposed to file a report, not bring home a four-year-old. But when a scared little girl needs somewhere safe to land, Lucy Chen does what she’s always done—leads with her heart. With Sergeant Tim Bradford quietly stepping in to help, the two of them fall into a rhythm neither expected—grocery runs, bubble baths, pancakes, and paperwork. But beneath the surface, both of them are facing something deeper: Lucy’s fear of failing a child who finally feels safe, and Tim’s growing awareness of just how much he cares about the woman who always leads with her heart.
AU with a four-year-old Tamara Collins. Set around season 4/5.

Summary
Scene re-write. S05 E06
What if Chris interrupted the moment Lucy gave Tim back his radio that bit later? What if the exchange took place in a more secluded area? When Tim and Lucy are struggling with their feelings for each other, what happens when Tim's restraint slips.
A nice long one-shot.

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
Lucy decides to go ahead and freeze her eggs to create a safety net for her future, only the doctor suggested she freeze embryos instead to increase her viability.
When Tim offers up his sperm to help her in the process, he does so under the promise that if they ever end up using the embryos, they'll parent the child together as friends.
How close can they get before breaking down and admitting they want more from each other than friendship?
No Ashley, No Chris, just Chenford being idiots and refusing to admit how much they care for each other.
