The Undercover case

The truth

Angela and John took the kids into the breakroom.

T- but why didn't you tell me when we were on good terms?
L- I wanted to, but how do you even start that conversation.
T- I understand that it must've been hard. You know I've always wanted kids. And now I have twins and I've missed the first 4 years of their life's. I wanted to be there, I still want to be there for them.
L- and I'm sorry about that. I was scared to move back after the program. When the program ended, I started to date Blake. And well I missed everyone here. So I'm sorry I didn't come back sooner or even told you sooner. If you want we can start letting you more into their life's.
T- I'd really like that Lucy.
L- let's give them the introduction you deserve.
T- wait, thank you for keeping my kids. Even though you hated my guts when you found out.
He gave Lucy a hug. And they walked towards the breakroom.
L- Maya, Jace do you remember Tim?
M- yes mommy
J- he is your boss, right mommy
L- yes he was my boss. But he is more than that. He is your daddy.
J- what we have a daddy.
M- but I thought Blake was our daddy.
L- no honey, your daddy and I didn't talk anymore because we lived far away. And than mommy met Blake and fell in love. But Tim is your real daddy.
J- I like Tim more than Blake.
T- haha thank you buddy.

Tim started to talk with the kids. And Lucy stood there watching them. He looked so cute with their kids. Lucy slowly started getting her feelings for Tim back, just by the sight of him with their kids.
J- can we go to the park with Tim tomorrow?
L- that's a good idea, let's ask Tim.
J/M- daddy do you want to go to the park with us tomorrow?
T- I would love to.
L- then that's settled. Should we also meet for lunch?
T- ohh yess, should I make some pancakes?
M- yay pancakes!!
J- I wanna show you my room, can I show him my room tomorrow, mommy?
L- sure, let's meet at my house and we will make pancakes together and you can show daddy your room. Can you come around 11 ish?
T- perfect. I have to get back on patrol. But I will see you tomorrow.

Tim left his kids and Lucy.

J- mommy are we going to live with daddy?
L- oh honey, no daddy has his own house. But I think that maybe someday you can have a sleepover at daddy's. But only if daddy approves.
M- oeh mommy, mommy. Daddy can come with me to the daddy daughter dance.
L- I think daddy would like that very much. You can ask him tomorrow.

As the day went on. Lucy came home with her twins. They had ordered take out and after eating she put her kids to put. But it was when she was alone, that the thought of her really being alone came in. She no longer had a fiancé, who she had loved for over 4 years. She knew she could always count on her best friends. But at this moment she only needed Tim. She tried texting him, but she couldn't even form words. That was when she pressed the call button.

T- hey Lucy?

When she heard his voice she broke down.
T- Luce what is wrong?
L- I'm sorry Tim, I shouldn't have called.
T- Lucy no it is okay. Tell me what's wrong. Is it the twins? Do I need to come over?

Lucy could hear his concern in his voice. She stayed silent for a few minutes.
T- Lucy if you are not telling me what wrong is, I'm coming to you.
L- I- I just. Never mind. Bye.
T- no Lucy, I'm already on my way.

Lucy hung up the phone. The last thing she heard were keys. She tried to gather herself. But she just couldn't. She walked to the kitchen, she grabbed a wine glass and a bottle of wine. She poured the wine in the glass. She almost filled the glass to the brim. As she took the first sip she almost emptied the whole glass. Soon after she poured more wine in her glass. And walked to the couch.

She sat on the couch almost 5 minutes just staring. She didn't move until she heard her phone ring. It was Tim. She picked up.
T- hey uhm I'm at your door. I didn't know if I could knock. I don't want to wake the twins.
L- it's okay, I will open the door.

She hung up the phone again and walked towards the door. As she opened the door Tim immediately gave her a hug.
T- I thought you needed it.
L- thank you, I really did need that.
T- should we sit on the couch?
L- yes. Uhm thank you Tim, you really didn't have to come.
T- no it is not a problem. You sounded sad and I want to be their for you.
L- it's nothing. I just realized that my relationship of over 4 years really ended. And I- I felt alone.
T- that is not nothing. You both still love each other. It's normal to feel like this.
L- thank you, I'm really sorry Tim. That I bother you with my love life without considering your feelings.
T- it's okay Lucy, really. I'm just glad that I can comfort you even seen the situation. And it's okay to need someone.

They started talking about the lost time they had. And eventually it was 3 am. They had talked for hours. They were seated so close to each other.
L- oh shit it's very late.
T- oh uhm I should go. Tomorrow we have a busy day.
L- no it's to late for you to be driving. You must be very tired. Why don't you stay here.
T- okay, only if it is really okay?
L- yes uhm I will sleep on the couch and you can take my bed.
T- no I'm not kicking you out of your own bed.
L- well I'm not letting a guest sleep on the couch.
T- okay, than sleep next to me in the bed. If it is okay of course.
L- sure, I mean we are just sleeping next to each other.

Lucy was already in her pyjama's. So she went and laid in her bed. Tim was changing in her en-suite bathroom. When he walked out Lucy was shocked. He was walking out of the bathroom only wearing boxers.
T- oh uhm sorry, I didn't want to lay in your bed with my dirty clothes.
L- no uhm it's- it's okay.

Tim went and laid on the other side of the bed. It took them awhile to actually fall asleep.

It was 8.30am the sun had woken Lucy up. Since she was a mom she couldn't sleep past 6.30am. At first it was because the twins would wake her up with their crying. But after they slept through the whole night, she couldn't sleep past that time. When she woke up this morning. She found herself all cuddled up. She snuggled in closer. But soon she realized this wasn't Blake, this was Tim. She quickly sat up with wide eyes.
T- oh uhm good morning.
L- ah morning. I'm sorry. I did that unconsciously.
T- it is okay, I kind of liked having you that close. How did you sleep? After last night.
L- uhm actually. If I'm being honest, I slept amazing. I don't even remember when it was that good.
T- I'm glad that I could help you with that.
L- oh shoot, uhm the kids would wake up soon. Normally they would wake up after 9am. And it's already 8.30am. I never slept till this late.
T- uhm should I leave. And come back later. Because of our thing with the kids.
L- yes ughh I'm sorry for everything.
T- no really Lucy. You need to stop apologizing. I really enjoyed last night and well waking up like this. But I will put my clothes on and I will be back soon.
L- okay, uhm see you then.

Tim left. Lucy quickly jumped under the shower and let her worry wash away. She closed her eyes to relax. But she had let her mind relax a bit too much. Because she started to imagine waking up with Tim, preparing breakfast together and having a steamy shower. But she was quickly pulled out of that thought by her son.
J- mommmmm, I'm hungry.
L- Jace honey, I'm coming. I just need to quickly dry off and put some clothes on.

She did just that. Lucy had put on a pair of denim shorts and a floral crop top. With her hair in a messy bun. She made some cereal for her kids. But while putting milk with the cereal, Lucy was thinking about Tim again. How he walked out of her bathroom in just his boxers. And again she was pulled out of her thoughts by her son.
J- mom! That's enough milk.
L- oh I'm sorry Jace, mommy's head was a bit occupied.

The kids had their breakfast as Lucy was preparing their clothes for the day. She gave the twins a bath and put their clothes on. The kids were all ready. So they went and played for a while. Lucy did some laundry. But was soon stopped because of the sound of a knock. She walked to the door, releasing the time.
L- oh hey, come in. Kids your daddy is here.
J/M- daddy!!
T- hey kiddos.
J- do you wanna see my room.
M- hey I also wanna show my room.
J- mine first.
M- noo mine first.
T- don't worry kids, you can both show me your rooms.

The kids ran upstairs with Tim right behind them. Lucy was really captivated by this scene. Tim with their kids. This made her only think about those thoughts she had about Tim. She wanted to be with him. But was also still confused about this whole situation, she just broke things off with Blake. Was it too fast to start something with Tim, the father of her children?
