Tim woke first this time his arm firmly found Lucy. He gazed at her complexion the rise and fall of her chest. Her red lips and tanned skin. Everything about her was pure perfection. He pressed a kiss into her lips she moaned slightly and rolled over. Tim smiled he pressed another one into her bare shoulder as he reached for his phone - dead great he said plugging it in he reached for Lucy's the time read 7:32am. Woah this was late for Liv and Lucy must be a reaction from yesterday. He couldn't but help smile at her Lock Screen it was a tiny Liv dressed as a tomato. He remember her pregnancy cravings his mind travelled back
** Flashback**
Pleaseeeeee Tim Lucy whined. Baby it's 2am where am I going to find them. I can't stop thinking about them she said running her hands through her hair I dream about them it's literally all my thoughts.
Tim laughed placing a hand on his heart woah are you telling me you don't think of me he said giggling. Well she said running her hand down his torso I'll make it worth your while she said kissing his neck and straddling him. He placed his hand on her bump. She stopped kissing him and their eyes met. He gave her a soft smile.
It's a good job I love your mummy he said rubbing her bump. Lucy squeaked with delight climbing off Tim. You better be awake when I get back he said smacking her ass. She giggled. An hour later Tim returned the apartment was quiet he had bought 3 punnets of tomatoes to last her a few days. He walked in the room with some in a bowl. Lucy was sat up with her phone in her hand but her head had moved to the side she was snoring gently. He smiled at the sight of her kissing her lips in an effort to rouse her but no luck. He giggled placing a hand on her bump and one on her neck gently lying her down. He took her phone to plug-in and it was open to Angela
Ange- tomatoes really?!?🤣
Luce- yes it's like they're in my brain I can't stop
A- sounds like you have a special one if he's gone out to get them Wes would've told me no😂
L- I genuinely haven't met someone as beautiful as him his soul is made of something special i do love him even if he drives me loopy!!

Tim smiled at the messages and cuddled in to her leaving the tomatoes on her bedside table.

All of a sudden he was back to reality. He looked down 5 messages how was she so popular
On the notification bar he looked

Ange- hope lil ones all good
Ange- we will be round for lunch not breakfast about 1?
Ange- you haven't responded which means is mr Bradford there😜

Tim chuckled then his eye met the other two messages.

Caleb- no worries we will reschedule hope Olivia is okay
Caleb- you're worth waiting for

He was taken back by this and put Lucy's phone down the time was now 8:14am how long was he lost in the past for? He got up and went to livs room her eyes lit up mu- dada she corrected up up up he picked her up and gave her a kiss mummy she said looking confused. Tim stopped everyday that she can remember Luce she has always been the one to get Livy up. She's the first thing and last thing she saw. No wonder Liv was obsessed with Lucy. Mummys sleeping Tim said putting his hand to his head to show Liv. Liv looked at Tim and started to squirm he put her down she toddled to Lucy's room. Mummy bed Tim nodded. She tried to reach the handle but wasn't tall enough she fell backwards onto her bum mumumum she said pointing to the door. She didn't understand Tim thought shall we go find mummy Tim said Liv nodded holding out her hand for Tim to take. They opened the door. Lucy was facing away all Liv could see was her dark brown curls she squealed with excitement and made her way to the bed. Shhh Tim said as he lifted her in the bed with him and Lucy. Liv touched Lucy's face mhm she moaned mummy her small voice was enough to make Lucy wake up her eyes shot open. My girly mummy's baby she said pulling Liv in to her Livy placed her arms around Lucy and lay on her.
Tim looked at them. Morning he said smiling she returned the smile what's the time she asked 8:30am Tim said god I've not slept this late since I was pregnant she said laughing we are normally up by 5:30. She said playing with Livs hair. Liv sat up on Lucy's tummy and she played with her necklace. Lucy smiled at her Liv moved forward and put her hands on her face and made a kiss face Lucy sat up and leaned forward giving her a kiss. She crawled off Lucy and sat on Tim she put her hand on his face and made the same kiss face. Tim leaned in and gave her a kiss. Lucy looking lovingly at Tim she touched his arm she's smitten with you. She doesn't remember me he said brushing off Lucy's compliment. Don't do that she said looking at Tim. She knows you. How many times did you talk to my bump it's ingrained in her she's a Bradford through and through Lucy said Liv climbed off him and lay back on Lucy. I believe she's more Chen than me. Lucy laughed she's half and half did you just compare our daughter to bread Lucy laughed louder. Tim nodded she's definitely a 50/50 loaf. The pair laughed. Their morning was slow and Lucy looked at her phone Tim saw her roll her eyes and respond. Oh Tim ange is coming for lunch with Jack do you want to stay. He smiled yes definitely. Liv was down for a nap and he walked into the kitchen to help her prepare lunch he watched her chop veggie sticks.
What she said giggling what are you looking at. I'm looking at you he said i like looking at beautiful things. Lucy blushed.
No tomatoes he said pointing to the tray.
God no I can't stand them after Liv.
He laughed. You're taking the piss right. Lucy laughed no I honesty can't stand them Tim don't she said giggling Tim moved closer with a tomato in his hand. Do you remember when I went to get them he laughed. Lucy smiled I remember everything she said Tim moved closer to her and brought her face to his before either of them could think what they were doing they embraced in a kiss. She turned around to carry on chopping food. The kiss wasn't gentle it was passionate. Lucy's mind raced thinking of every time her and Tim kissed. He grabbed her waist moving her hair from her neck pressing a soft and gentle kiss into her neck she let out a moan. Come on you know that's not fair she said. That's always been my weak spot she said putting down the pepper. She leant back into Tim. This right here was everything. He kissed her neck again. Tim picked her up and placed her on the side her legs opened and Tim stood into them she wrapped them around him and they passionately made out. The doorbell sounded wait wait she said breathlessly stop they're here she said. Tim pushed his erection into his belt to hide it. Luce he said you're so flushed go splash water on your face he put his hand on her waist and helped her down she took a deep breath in. The doorbell sounded again.
Tim went to open  the door Angela greeted them with a hug she pulled back when she smelt Lucy's coconut scent on him Timothy she said smirking he smiled bashfully. Come in he said Lucy's in the bathroom and livs sleeping. Just then Liv woke up. Tim excused himself to get Liv.
Lucy came out her cheeks still flushed she hugged Angela who looked at her. There's something different about you. Happier she said Lucy rolled her eyes. Chen she said walking past her your gloss is smudged. Lucy quickly fixed her lips and tried to hide her embarrassment. They sat and ate after the kids were finished they played the adults sat and chatted Lucy's phone rang she picked it up Tim saw it was Caleb I'll be one sec she said
Walking away she answered it hello
Angela looked at Tim so what did you two do last night. Tim could feel his cheeks going read. Jesus it was like he was a teenager um w-we put Liv to bed had a drink and chatted he coughed at the next bit and looked away.
Angela gasped you guys slept together didn't you. Tim smiled and nodded. I feel like I've really bonded with Liv and with Luce it's like it was before. Have you spoken about your nighttime activities since Angela questioned tim shook his head. This Caleb is still texting her.
Urgh Angela grunted. That must be who her date was with.

What's he like tim questioned. We were on a case Angela said and we helped him he gave Lucy his number she laughed it off but then he turned up at the station. He found out about Olivia and has continuously asked her out since he's decent looking but Lucy's way out of his league. Tim felt uneasy. He looked to his daughter who was walking over dada she gargled Tim picked her up Angela's eyes widened she called you dada yeah said Tim planting a kiss into her head. Did you know Lucy talked to her about me when I was gone. Angela smiled softly. Tim she never stopped talking about you to her. For the first months she put your shirt in with her so she would know you smell. She did everything to keep the memory of you alive to Liv. She would play videos of you two. She made sure Liv knew you. Tim's eyes glistened with tears Lucy came back in the room she looked at him what's wrong she said.
Tim leaned over and kissed her Angela smiled Liv clapped and Jack looked over saying eww. They all giggled.
When Angela left Tim took Lucy's hand Lucy I have to ask what's going on with Caleb.
Lucy took a breath I told him im unavailable he didn't like it but that's that. She said smiling and leaning in to kiss Tim.

A week later
Tim Lucy and Liv slotted into a perfect routine. They were the perfect family. Lucy had dropped Liv off at day care. Angela, Lucy and Nyla had been working on a high profile case recently. Serial killer Rosalind dyer and the countless bodies she had buried. But the recent ones were found when she was in prison. Angela took the file DOD what's that
Nyla turned to them day of death she said that's day when Rosalind's little puppet kills them. After a long day tim walked into their office. I'm going to grab Liv Lucy looked up and smiled Tim could see she was in the zone. I'm making tacos tonight don't be too late he planted a kiss on her cheek bye love you give Liv a kiss for me. Love you babe tim replied.
Tim had fed and bathed Liv and put her to bed come on Lucy where are you he said looking at his phone 7:47pm then a text flashed up
Luce- leaving now be home shortly x

Lucy put her phone in her pocket as she left being the last one out gave her an uneasy feeling she made the short walk to the over spill car park. The street lamp dimly lit the road. Lucy a voice called she turned around to find something large make contact with her head. It all went black.
