ONE SHOT STORY What a scene from the trailer might look like.

When Tim gets offered a prestigious promotion in San Diego, he's ready to take it-finally choosing himself and his career for once. Lucy congratulates him with a brave face, all while hiding her heartbreak. Everyone's thrilled for him... except Lucy. And on the night of his farewell party, surrounded by drinks, speeches, and goodbyes, Lucy finally snaps. She confesses her love in front of everyone-and it changes everything.

In high school, Tim Bradford had it all-looks, popularity, and a cruel streak. When he makes a bet to seduce quiet, guarded Lucy Chen, he never expects her to resist his charm-or to crack open something real inside him. But just when he finally falls for her, she overhears the truth: it was all a game. Broken and betrayed, Lucy walks away just weeks before graduation, leaving Tim with nothing but guilt and the memory of the girl he destroyed. Years later, Tim is a football superstar. Lucy is an LAPD sergeant. They never expected to see each other again-until a robbery, a badge, and a name bring everything rushing back. Now, with past wounds still bleeding and emotions running high, Tim is determined to win back the only girl he ever truly loved. But some scars don't fade.

High school, with all the drama. Tim the popular boy, likes the nerd Lucy. The problem is that Lucy and Genny are best friends

After a messy fight, Tim and Lucy take a break - the first time they've ever been apart. But during the time away, they start finding letters and memories they'd written to each other over the years - hidden in books, drawers, old notebooks. Each one pulls them closer to realizing the breakup was never real - and the love never left.

When Lucy Chen transfers to Mid-Wilshire, she never expects to come face-to-face with the man she once shared an unforgettable summer with - Tim Bradford. Old sparks resurface, buried feelings ignite, and what starts as tension soon turns into a slow-burn journey of love, laughter, and second chances. Through flirtation, friendship, and the challenges of life in and out of uniform, Tim and Lucy discover that some connections are meant to last forever - no matter how much time has passed.

In this Chenford fan-fic, Lucy will have a little slip up in front of Tim about her and Nolan dating. Will Tim get jealous? Is their relationship over? And most of all, will Nolan ever be safe?

Lucy Chen is happy with Chris-he's sweet, reliable, everything she should want. But "should" doesn't feel like "right." Because then there's Tim Bradford. Her partner. Her constant. Her impossible maybe. Tim watches Lucy with someone else, smiles through the ache, and keeps his distance. But distance can't hide the way his world shifts every time she laughs, or the way his heart clenches every time she says someone else's name. When a single night of patrol turns into undeniable sparks and a near-confession, everything starts to unravel. Secrets come close to the surface. Tim holds back, and Lucy starts to wonder why it hurts when he does. With a little help (and a push) from Angela, truths get harder to ignore. Tension builds. Lines blur. And one bold confession sets off a cascade that changes everything. From heartbreak to healing, this is a story of missed chances, second tries, and finally getting it right.

Lucy's engaged... but not to Tim. He's just the friend. But when old sparks start flying again during wedding prep, and one near-kiss changes everything, Lucy starts questioning everything.

Lucys mom pays a visit, is it good or a bad visit? What will Tim do?
