Summary
“Can you take me back to the station?” She asks quickly, as she ends the call, her voice a pitch higher than normal. “I have to go grab my kid from school, she’s sick.”
Tim’s head snaps toward his rookie as the words leave her mouth. Did she just say she has…
“I’m sorry, your what?”
“I know, this is going to be a mark against me, but my aunt can’t get her and-“
“Did you just say you have a kid?”

Summary
Tim Bradford precisa tanto de uma mudança que segue a palavra ao pé da letra: vai parar no apartamento em frente ao de Lucy Chen, a moradora que julga calorosa até demais e um pouco invasiva, com poucos pertences e muitos ressentimentos do passado. Quando os vizinhos passam a conviver e dividir a vida numa amizade improvável, descobrem um no outro o que ninguém mais parece ver.
Inspirada na música Blessed, de Daniel Caesar.

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.
