It Is

"Since we're having this talk, I'm assuming it's serious"

"IT IS"

As Tim accepted the court liaison position from Grey. There was much more to say. Grey had been watching this bond form. He knew Lucy had changed Tim. She had brought Tim out from his own darkness, had broken down his walls. Grey saw Lucy as a daughter type and wanted to make sure that Tim was serious about this and it wasn't just a heat of the moment type situation.

"So Tim, be real with me. This relationship with Lucy. You having to change your career path. A lot of sacrifices. You really want this?"

"Sir. It is. I can't keep living life like I was. I have honestly loved her for so long. Never in my life after Isobel. Or even more so, did I ever think I would fall for my rookie. But after the Caleb situation happened. Everything shifted for me. I knew at that point I couldn't act on any romantic feelings. At that point, my only thought was to protect her. Recently, after we both became single. I couldn't be silent anymore. I'm so in love with her. I want it all with her. Making this professional sacrifice is easy for me. She makes me so happy, the happiest I could of ever imagined. She is the best thing that has ever happened to me"

"Well. That's all I needed to know. I have seen the impact she has had on you for years now. I can see in your eyes. You really love her. Tim, I will be you and Lucy's biggest supporter. I saw you go through that darkness after Isobel. What her addiction did to you. You lost a part of yourself. You were just existing. Until your hot shot Rookie came on the scene. She never gave up. She was never deterred from your rough exterior. You tried pushing her away time after time. Lucy, she sure is something. Breaking down those Bradford walls."

"She sure did, sir. She never gave up on me. I thank my lucky stars everyday, she never did. Now, I get to spend my life making it up to her."

"Yup, you two are gonna be just fine"

"Thank you sir. For everything"
