Summary
“You should’ve taken the bribe, Sergeant; started a new life,” Everett says.
Tim stares him down. “There’s no way that ever would’ve happened,” he says plainly. He won’t ever throw away his integrity like that, no matter the cost.
“I don't need that kind of money. I don't even want it,” he had told Everett during the arrest, and he hasn’t changed his mind on that. “Maintaining my integrity? That's priceless.”
“This mistake will come back to haunt you,” he had responded. “You have my word on that.”
“In that case,” Everett responds, smiling eerily, “You really should’ve just gone to jail.”

Summary
This chain of events would change her, in one way or another, forever.
She would never be the Lucy that he’d kissed in the parking lot of the station this morning, all smiles and blissfully unaware of the nightmare that was to come, again.
It didn’t matter how much time passed, how healed she became, how far removed she was from the situation as each day passes.
There would still, there would always still, be a distinct difference from here on out — a Lucy from before today, and a Lucy from after.
— A not-so-brief look into Tim and Lucy’s brains, as well as their relationship, as they both come to grips with the pain and the guilt around what had happened that day, and how, no matter what, they were each others anchors.
