    Summary

    Tim and Lucy are moving in together...

    Part of the "On the Move" series. Set three days after "Say Something" but can be read as a stand-alone. It could make sense to read "Everybody Hurts", a Miles Mortification fic.

    Lucy stared at her laptop, the letters and numbers blurring in front of her eyes. It was early. Too early even for Tim; he was still fast asleep beside her, arm flung over his face as he snored lightly, a fact that he always denied whenever she teased him about it.

    She smiled and rested her hand on his chest for a moment, feeling for his heartbeat: thud-thud-thud.

    He didn’t stir, just frowned, the snoring stopping for a moment before his features smoothed out again. This, him next to her in this bed, was a last.

    There had been a lot of those in the last few days, minor things, really: Celina and her having dinner together at the kitchen island for the final time, just the two of them; taking a last bath in the tub with the adhesive baby Yodas that she’d bought on a whim a while ago because they reminded her of Jackson; making coffee in the morning before leaving for work.
