On a board filled with traps, two sides wage a dangerous battle beneath the façade of a public alliance between nations. On one side stands Tim Bradford, the newest recruit of the U.S. Intelligence Department, though nothing about him screams rookie. At forty years old, he's been a cadet, a squad leader, a police officer, and a sergeant. Now, a hardened spy, thrown into a world where one wrong move means death. On the other, Lucy Chen - the trusted right hand of the most powerful Russian crime syndicate. A girl whose past everyone judges to know. And Tim's mission. There is no loyalty strong enough. No lie safe enough. Only one can survive. And falling in love might be the deadliest move of all. Buckle up. The game is about to begin. | i also post this on AO3 |

Isabel has disappeared but Tim divorced her or he tried. Before he left LA he put a divorce paper on 'their' coffee table and a pen. He doesn't know whether she signed it or not but he just needed to get out of LA. He left his job, his 'wife' but he had to. A weight was weighing on him like a brick. What will happen next??? Lucy lives in a small town called Santa Monica. Just outside of LA. She owns a bar with her best friend Angela. Lucy hasn't always had the best of luck with love. They either left or she didn't trust them or they were lying liars who lied.

Basically this is 1 year after 5×22 of The Rookie, Tim is still Sergeant of Metro LAPD but Lucy is Detective Chen. She passed her Detective Exam within the top 10. Anyway, she has been undercover for a few months. They both miss each other and wish for her to come home. When a mishap on patrol brings them back together...

Lucy and Tim are assigned to another undercover mission, to infiltrate a drug trafficking operation run by a figure named Javier Reyes. Their goal is to gain Reyes' trust, gather intel on the operation and identify key players, all while maintaining their cover as a criminal couple. This all takes place a few months after their breakup, which makes it more complicated for them. Will they be able to stay professional at all times, even when they're together, alone, in their apartment??

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 |

This takes place 7x06. Tim and Lucy are broken up. They haven't had the adult conversation. Celina lives with Lucy. The rookies might be in this story.

the whole group are at the beach, and tim and lucy are busy teasing eachother and Angela and Celina are loving it.

When the rookies go on vacation, Tim Bradford and Lucy Chen can't seem to stay apart. From steamy hot tub games to secret late-night rendezvous, their undeniable chemistry threatens to expose their hidden romance - and the team is starting to notice. Can they keep their desires under wraps, or will this getaway reveal more than just their vacation plans?

They were supposed to be partners. They were never supposed to fall. They meet as sergeants from opposite ends of the LAPD-two leaders, two reputations, and zero patience for each other. When an undercover operation requires them to pose as a couple, neither is thrilled. Tim Bradford thinks Lucy Chen is too soft; Lucy thinks Tim is all walls and no heart.
