There's an unspoken rule in the LAPD: if someone calls after 3 a.m., it better be life or death. So when Lucy Chen finds herself dialing Tim Bradford in the middle of the night after a nightmare, she expects silence - not for him to answer on the first ring. The call is short. Quiet. Safe. And it accidentally starts something they can't stop. What begins as a lifeline during sleepless nights becomes a ritual neither of them wants to break. Every call brings them closer - shared silences, confessions half-whispered into darkness, and feelings neither of them can admit under daylight. But when a dangerous call on duty nearly shatters everything, Tim and Lucy are forced to confront what's been growing between them - not with words mumbled through sleep, but with eyes open, hearts racing, and no more excuses. Because after so many calls at 3 a.m., they're both starting to realize... Maybe it was never just about the time. Maybe it's always been about each other. | I also post this on my AO3 account |

Determined, passionate, and maybe a little naïve, I step into the chaos of the city - only to be assigned to the one T.O. who seems colder than a steel wall: Officer Tim Bradford. Tough, distant, and emotionally guarded, Tim doesn't make it easy. But over time, through long shifts, high-stress calls, and quiet moments in the patrol car, I start to see glimpses of the man behind the badge. And suddenly, things get complicated. What begins as a professional relationship slowly evolves into something deeper - something neither of us saw coming. Hidden feelings, secret weekends, moments of jealousy, heated arguments, and stolen kisses... In a world full of rules, one thing is clear: love wasn't part of the plan. A slow-burn, emotional and romantic fanfiction set in the world of the LAPD. Tim Bradford x Reader (OC) - told from the first-person point of view. Full of tension, tenderness, and forbidden connection.
