Tim + Lucy = ? OR, Moment 22 Deviated Extension. Compiled here are my various extensions of Moment 22 of my Tim Bradford and Lucy Chen: S4 Moments. Moment 22 from the original S4 Moments series is the first chapter just so no one gets puzzled.

This is what I imagine (want) to happen straight after season 6 ended (Aaron is still in the story despite him having confirmed he won't be in season 7), focus on Chenford, slow burn. The Oscar/Jason storyline is incorporated from season 6 but not Monica. Lucy sets out to prove herself again as a good cop after her disaster with the detective's exam. Will the awkwardness between Chenford be resolved? Or will it all come to a head? Disclaimer - I have stayed true to each character's mannerisms in the show, so if you're looking for a story where Tim calls Lucy his pookie princess and is overly gushy, you won't find that here. I have remained as realistic as I can with each character's actions, behaviours and words.

She's my rookie. I can't have feelings for her. That's what I keep telling myself. But every day I ride with Lucy Chen is another day I fall for her. She's my ride or die. She always has my back. And I will never let anything happen to her. I'd die for her. But she can't know how I feel, nobody can. Falling For Lucy is my thesis on how and why Tim Bradford has been falling for Lucy Chen since the very beginning of the show. I, personally, believe the show writers did not do this on purpose, and the story has written itself. This is my detailed account of Tim Bradford's POV throughout The Rookie with some creative liberties taken to fill in the blanks. This is a super slow burn, just like the show. This book will always be 100% canon to the show. And yes, I am watching the show five seconds at a time giving you every detail of every second of Tim Bradford's experience. This is The Rookie: Tim's POV. So if that sounds interesting to you, you will enjoy this book. Also! Check out Lusting For Lucy for more mature bonus chapters, one-shots, and alternate timelines. I have the entirety of Dim & Juicy written over there, and it seems to be a fan favorite with an additional steamy alt ending. Enjoy!

There's an unspoken rule in the LAPD: if someone calls after 3 a.m., it better be life or death. So when Lucy Chen finds herself dialing Tim Bradford in the middle of the night after a nightmare, she expects silence - not for him to answer on the first ring. The call is short. Quiet. Safe. And it accidentally starts something they can't stop. What begins as a lifeline during sleepless nights becomes a ritual neither of them wants to break. Every call brings them closer - shared silences, confessions half-whispered into darkness, and feelings neither of them can admit under daylight. But when a dangerous call on duty nearly shatters everything, Tim and Lucy are forced to confront what's been growing between them - not with words mumbled through sleep, but with eyes open, hearts racing, and no more excuses. Because after so many calls at 3 a.m., they're both starting to realize... Maybe it was never just about the time. Maybe it's always been about each other. | I also post this on my AO3 account |

A Chenford 'what if' story based on 5×1 of the show 'The Rookie' NOT MY CHARACTERS !!! ⚠️TRIGGER WARNINGS⚠️ Self-harm, Eating Disorder, Panic Attacks, Guns, Kidnapping, Suicide

"She's just my rookie." and "He's just my Sergeant." Only if it were that simple there'd be no story to tell... Lucy Chen joined the LAPD to prove herself. What she didn't expect was to be paired with someone likeTim Bradford-her no-nonsense training officer whose bark is exactly as sharp as his bite. At first, their partnership is a clash of wills, but underneath the tension simmers something neither of them dares name. When Lucy's personal life implodes and Tim's fractured relationship pushes him past his limits, the two find themselves circling closer-caught between duty, desire, and the unspoken bond that grows with every shift. From patrol calls in Los Angeles to an undercover operation in Las Vegas, where they must pose as lovers in order to bring down a dangerous drug syndicate, Tim and Lucy's act becomes harder to separate from reality. Every touch, every glance, every kiss blurs the lines between cover and confession. But with enemies closing in, secrets threatening to surface, and their careers hanging in the balance, one thing becomes clear: the most dangerous risk they'll take may not be the job-it may be each other.

One shots, some on the longer side. Mostly stories imagined to be in between episodes. Depth and love! Keep in mind I'm British so i apologise for any words that aren't technically correct. Also I'm dyslexic so excuse some of the grammer <3

This takes place in 5x1 when they go undercover. What if Tamara didn't walk in on them kissing and Chris wasn't on the couch when they got home

This story is based on, if the LAPD went on a road trip vacation after the Chenford breakup and they were figuring out their relationship. Everyone in this story is who is currently in season 6/7 of The Rookie. Aaron Thorsen isn't as he transferred stations, and Tamara Collins isn't coming because she's in College and isn't apart of the LAPD job. Although they do appear from texts or calls. Credits to the writers, directors and everybody like that who produce 'The Rookie'. This story is based for 13-18 years of age. No graphic scenes.

Lucy and Tim after 4.01, though the story doesn't accurately reflect the shows timeline of events. They both can't deny the feelings they have for each other and read to find out how that unfolds. This is a mature read because of some of the topics explored and some language used. However nothing explicit will be in detail. Disclaimer: I don't own any of these characters, the original characters belong to the show "the rookie". Except for a few characters who I will make up.
