Summary
Her hand drifts, almost unconsciously, to rest low over her stomach. A quick, protective press. Her skin still feels soft under her fingers, no different to when she felt last felt his hands worship her.
“I’ll tell him,” she promises under her breath. “I just… need the right moment.”
There will not be a right moment, but she doesn’t know that yet.
or in other words, a 'what if' of the wildfire episode if alexi had the balls to provide more angst.

Summary
“Of course I still love you!” Tim shouts out. “Do you?”
For a while, it doesn’t seem like Lucy’s going to say it back. There’s some bickering, and then there’s silence, and then when the fire roars so loud that almost nothing else can be heard, she finally speaks.
“I love you,” Lucy cries out. “I’m sorry. I do love you.”
“I know,” Tim responds, and it’s the last words either of them ever says.
