Summary
"Tell me to stop." Tim's voice was a low growl, his forehead against hers. "Say it."
Say it. Say stop. End this. Save yourself. Save him. Be the good person you're supposed to be.
She opened her mouth.
"Please don't fucking stop."

Summary
“Okay,” he clenches his jaw and motions towards the couch so they can sit down.
“I think I should start,” she swallows hard and waits for his nod. “From practically the day you could talk you always were a protector. Whether it was Genny falling while learning to walk, you were right there checking her over for any injuries even if she didn’t cry.”

Summary
"I’m sorry I hurt you. I’m sorry I’m already messing up my promise to be a better communicator.”
“You haven't messed up anything, Tim. You promised you would never keep anything from me, and that's what this is. You’re talking to me now, aren't you?"
8x08 spec fic from the sneak peak we got and from Melissa saying in that one interview that at some point Nyla refers to Celina and Angela as "terribly meddlesome".

Summary
“Miles said you seemed to know the woman,” Lucy says, placing a hand over his.
Tim pauses.
Know is a strong word. One that he isn’t sure applies here.
He knew her, once. A long time ago. She cooked him dinner and bought him and Genny ice cream in the park and silently handed him ice packs when his bruises looked particularly bad. He kissed her cheek after she dropped him off at football practice and promised her it was okay as she drove him to the emergency room with a broken rib—even listened when she suggested he tell them he’d tripped down the stairs.
But nothing good lasts in a house like that.
Or:
Tim encounters a familiar face on a call, and soon realises he's going to have to confront the past he thought he'd made peace with.Bookmarked by presleyshea
