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
Eight years ago, a stolen weekend changed everything. They met, they clicked, and they parted—young, passionate, and unaware of the life they had set in motion.
Now, fate has brought them back together, side by side in the LAPD. Tim is a seasoned officer, still haunted by the past. Lucy is a detective with a secret she’s kept for years.
As old sparks ignite and new responsibilities collide, they must navigate trust, heartbreak, and the delicate art of forgiveness. Because some truths can’t stay hidden forever… and some loves are worth fighting for.

Summary
“To the end of the world,” Lucy murmurs, and she doesn’t know if it’s the look in his eyes, the desperation of the moment, or the knowledge that the world might be ending and they may never get another chance that propels them forward.
Tim smirks, her heart thunders in her chest, and she takes a single step closer to him.
“Whenever that may be,” he says, and then he’s raising the glass to his lips and taking a long swig. Lucy mirrors the movement and then licks her lips, the tequila burning down her throat as Tim stares at her, his own lips wet with the whiskey he’s clutching in his hand.
“Tim,” she breathes, because despite the fact that he hasn’t let her be afraid yet, she is a little bit.
“Lucy,” he murmurs.
She doesn’t know who moves first, just that, later, it keeps her up at night.

Chenford Fan Fiction Bingo 2025: fake dating / one night stand
Lucy and Jackson are out for trivia night when she runs into her cheating ex. In order to help her, Jackson ropes in Tim to pretend to be her boyfriend...
“It’s the cutest story.”
Mark’s head swivels to Jackson.
“They locked eyes on her first day, and then they were literally inseparable. Love at first sight.”
Well, at least one of them is having fun with this. And, again, not exactly a lie. They did lock eyes on her first day and they were inseparable afterwards except for the odd shift apart. As for the love at first sight part…
Yeah, no.
Tim’s body twitches, and Lucy realises, with some surprise, that he’s trying not to laugh. Right, so everyone’s having fun now except her.Series
