"it's been two weeks" Ana murmurs, leaving the bedroom to see Tim in the kitchen cooking breakfast.

"it has been" Tim sighs. "I'm sorry, I looked for everything and applied for a few lower level jobs but Grey pulled my applications, didn't want me to ruin my opportunities for the future"

"I don't want you to ruin your opportunities either" Ana frowns, approaching him.

"here" Tim hands her a packet of papers.

"court level appearances" Ana reads aloud.

"you basically go to court and oversee trials with dangerous criminals" Tim explains, pulling her into him.

"better than undercover" Ana agrees, softly.

"and I thought since you connect so well with criminals, it might be something you enjoy doing" Tim adds.

"I like it" Ana nods.

"Grey pulled some strings, he just needs you to sign some paperwork and the job is yours" Tim says.

"thank you" Ana murmurs, looking up at him.

"thank you for sacrificing your job for me" Tim answers, cupping her face in his hands.

Ana stands up on her tip toes and Tim leans down as their lips connect in a sweet kiss.

"finally" Tamara mutters under her breath as she enters the kitchen.

Ana blushes and separates from the kiss, opting to cuddle further into Tim's chest.

"are these Red Velvet waffles?" Tamara asks, looking at what Tim is preparing.

"yup" Tim smiles, ruffling Tamara's hair while keeping one arm wrapped around Ana.

"hey!" Tamara slaps his hand away.

Tim and Ana laugh as Tamara tries to fix her hair.

"I made them for your exam today" Tim continues.

"you remembered?" Tamara asks.

"duh" Tim responds.

"we'll drop you off at school so you can spend some extra time studying in the car" Ana promises Tamara.

"you guys are amazing" Tamara grins.

"um, sir?" Ana asks, knocking on Grey's office door before entering.

"hey, Cabrera, you got the paperwork for me?" Grey asks, standing up.

"I do" Ana nods, handing him the paperwork.

"perfect" Grey nods, looking through the paperwork.

"the judge who runs our cases took the day off, so you're going to go with Lopez to the prison and oversee the transport of prisoners to trial" Grey explains.

"why is Lopez going to the prison too?" Ana asks.

"she needs to interview someone for a case" Grey responds.

"cool, thank you, sir" Ana nods.

"of course" Grey nods. "and congratulations"

"for what, sir?" Ana asks, softly.

"for you and Tim, we've all been waiting too damn long" Grey replies.

"thank you, sir" Ana giggles, blushing.

"you ready to go?" Ana asks, grabbing the gear for the day.

They're going to escort a truck to the prison.

"yeah, how are you feeling?" Angela asks.

"good, all things considered" Ana sighs. "how's Jack?"

"good, doesn't even remember it" Angela responds, taking the gear bags from her.

"that's good" Ana smiles, weakly.

"you still thinking about Davion?" Angela guesses.

"he was lying and I just-... I trusted him" Ana murmurs.

"you're a very trusting person" Angela answers.

"but that's not a good thing" Ana frowns.

"it is" Angela assures her. "you being a trusting person means people are more comfortable and happy with you, you got Oscar to basically adopt you because you were so trusting of him"

"it almost got Jack killed" Ana argues.

"but it didn't, because you protected him with your life" Angela responds.

"if I had just-... if I hadn't trusted Davion, then maybe we could've escape earlier" Ana sighs.

"you couldn't have, he very quickly betrayed your trust when he drove you away from us" Angela answers.

"what do you mean?" Ana frowns.

"we found the house you were at, but he drove you away and managed to escape" Angela replies.

"that was y'all?" Ana asks.

"yeah, our SWAT team got their ass whooped by that lady who was working with Davion" Angela nods.

"that wasn't the lady, that was... me" Ana admits. "I thought-... Davion said that people were after him and I was the one driving, I didn't know it was you"

"what? you were trying to escape us?" Angela asks.

"I didn't know it was you, they were wearing all black, and I assumed it was someone that Davion pissed off" Ana explains, softly. "I'm sorry"

"no, no, it's okay" Angela assures her. "we just didn't realize..."

"did I hurt them?" Ana inquires.

"not severely, no" Angela shakes her head.

Ana frowns and nods.

[Time Skip]

"look at that" Ana frowns, seeing a car with it's hazard lights on the side of the road.

"we're not on patrol, we can't stop" Angela responds.

"what about just for a minute?" Ana requests.

"fine" Angela resigns, pulling the car over behind the parked car.

Ana and Angela get out of the shop and approach the car.

"oh, thank god" A woman in her mid 30's says. "my tire blew out and I can't figure out how to put on the repair."

"are those your kids, ma'am?" Ana asks, looking into the car and seeing two girls, probably six and eight respectively.

"yeah, I'm driving them to dance practice" The woman nods.

Ana turns to look at Angela, giving her a pleading look.

"this is your first day on the job, we can't get too far away from the truck" Angela argues.

"why don't you go ahead and I'll help them with the car?" Ana requests.

Angela sighs, "fine, I'll pick you up on the way back"

"thank you" Ana grins.

"be safe, seriously, Tim might kill me if you so much as get a scratch" Angela warns as she walks back to the shop.

"yes, ma'am" Ana calls as Angela gets into the shop and drives away.

Ana turns back to the woman named Mia. "do you have a spare tire?"

"yeah, I do" Mia nods, walking around the car and showing it to Ana.

"m'kay, this shouldn't take me too long" Ana assures her as she starts to remove the blown tire.

"so how old are your kids?" Ana asks as she works, trying to make small talk.

"Six and Nine" Mia replies. "they're the lights of my lives"

Ana smiles. "and they like to dance?"

"yeah, I enrolled them in a dance academy but it's an hour drive away" Mia nods.

"how much farther is it?" Ana asks.

"about thirty minutes, we'll definitely be late" Mia sighs.

"I'm sorry" Ana apologizes, softly.

"it's okay, this'll be their first tardy so it's not too bad" Mia responds.

Ana finishes up installing the tire.

"there you go, go to an auto dealership to get a new tire as soon as you can" Ana suggests, standing up.

"of course, thank you" Mia nods. "do you want me to drop you off somewhere?"

"no, my partner will be back soon" Ana assures her.

"Are you sure?" Mia frowns.

"positive" Ana nods.

"okay" Mia says, reluctantly.

Ana stands off to the side as Mia pulls back onto the road and drives off.

[Time Skip]

Ana is waiting patiently an hour later when she hears the sound of distant police sirens. Ana stands up, running towards the direction the police sirens are coming from.

She gets there just in time to see an escaped prisoner jump from the truck and jump off the little cliff that borders the road. Ana doesn't hesitate in jumping after the prisoner, rolling to the ground. Angela, who was chasing the prisoner, jumps after her.

The two girls run after the prisoner, who recovers first, into the forest.

"you go from the left" Angela yells over to her.

"got it" Ana calls back, running towards the left while Angela runs to the right.

The prisoner turns and sees that the police officers chasing him have disappeared into the forest. He starts to sprint again but runs into the two cops, who managed to run in front of him.

"Davion?" Ana asks, shocked to see Davion the prisoner who escaped.

"Ana, please, you have to help me-" Davion starts, but Ana doesn't believe his lies, not anymore, and she punches him hard enough to knock him out.

"good girl" Angela smirks, as she hauls Davion up.

[Time Skip]

"what's going on in that pretty little head of yours?" Tim asks, sitting down next to her on the couch.

"Davion... he lied... a lot and I believed him" Ana frowns, curling into his side.

"he's a liar and you're a trusting person, but you still saved Dominique and Jack" Tim murmurs, pulling her into his lap.

"he tried to lie to me again today" Ana whispers.

"and he failed, because you learned" Tim points out.

"it was a mistake" Ana says, softly.

"a mistake you won't make again" Tim assures her, tilting her chin up to look at him.

"how do you know that? how do I know that other people I trust are lying to me?" Ana whispers.

"that's what me and Harper were talking about the other day" Tim responds. "I want you to do think really hard about anyone close to you that you think could be lying to you"

"you think someone is?" Ana frowns.

"I don't know, baby, but what I do know is that I want you to be safe and whoever Davion was working with is trying to kill you" Tim replies.

Ana nods. "I'm scared, what if next time they hurt someone I love?"

"you won't let it happen, because you're a sweetheart and a very brave person, you'll protect us, and I'll help you every step of the way" Tim promises.

Ana relaxes a little in his lap, looking up at him. "thank you"

"of course, love" Tim smiles, gently connecting their lips in a kiss.
