Summary
After a night of fake dating in "I Know A Bank Where the Wild Thyme Blows", which turned into a one-night stand, which turned into realising there are feelings, which ended with Tim asking Lucy out on a real date... this is the following day from Tim's POV: coming to terms that he's had feelings for Lucy for a while, planning and then taking her on that date, so basically entering their secret dating era—while still training his new rookie.
(And I know this is a crappy summary.)Reading "Thyme" is recommended as there are some call-backs, but I think you can follow the plot even if you don't.

Summary
I saw a post on twitter pointing out that Rosalind was dressed just like Ashley in 5x1 and theorized that maybe Tim was the real target and not Chris. This is my version of how things were supposed to go if Rosalind stuck with that plan...
-----
The woman turns, and for half a second, she does look like Ashley. The blonde hair, the clothes, the shape of her silhouette in the dim light. But then she smiles as she faces him fully, and his heart promptly sinks into his chest.
"Don't sound so disappointed, Tim. Aren't you happy to see me?"

Summary
Dumped in the woods with no memory of how they got there and stripped of everything, Tim and Lucy have one goal: survive long enough to find their way home. But when weeks pass with no rescue, survival stops being the only new thing they're learning to navigate.

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.
