It was the day of the station’s holiday party and Lucy was in charge and she found out the Santa that she hired won’t make it because he’s sick. She comes up with the brilliant idea to get Tim to volunteer for it. She goes over to him and hugs him from behind.“Please don’t hate me” Lucy said.“What did you do” Tim asked her as he works on Metro stuff.“You’re supposed to say I could never hate me, but the original Santa called out sick, so I may or may not have volunteered you for that role” Lucy said.Tim sighed knowing he can’t say no to her and nods.“I’ll do it on one condition “Tim said.“What is it” Lucy said as she lets go of Tim.“You’ll be my Mrs. Claus” Tim said.“I will do it and find you a suit” Lucy said before walking away.Little did Lucy know Tim had other plans, like proposing under the mistletoe. It was later in the night when Tim and Lucy were out being Mr. and Mrs., Tim looked at how sexy Lucy was. Lucy was watching Tim with the kids and smiled knowing he would make a good dad one day. When their job was done, they got changed into something nice. Lucy saw Tim in a nice white dress shirt and slacks and a suit jacket. Tim saw Lucy wearing his favorite green dress.“Wow you look uh” Tim said.“Look what, Tim cat got your tongue” Lucy said smiling.“Sorry, you look great” Tim said smiling.“I know. So, do you” Lucy said smiling and holding his handTim took Lucy to grab something to drink. Lucy grabbed a flute of champagne and Tim grabs some eggnog. Lucy saw Tim make a face as he tried eggnog for the first time. Tim grabs some champagne and pouts. Lucy laughed and got a picture and sends it to Angela. Angela gets the picture and comes over.“So, Tim, you didn’t like it” Angela said laughing.“No plus I forgot it was milk and I don’t do dairy” Tim said.“Why” Lucy asked.“Because I uh get a really bad tummy ache” Tim said.Angela and Lucy laugh as Tim turns red.“Timmy gets a little tummy ache from milk” Angela said.“Yes, now if you’ll excuse me, I need to grab my wife” Tim said.“Wife, Tim” Lucy said shocked.Tim hands her a note. She opens it and looks at it.“To Lucy, who will forever be my Mrs. Claus. Tim that means” Lucy saidTim gets down on one knee and pulls out the ring and smiled.“Lucy Chen, will you marry me” Tim said.“Yes, I will” Lucy said in shock.Tim slips the ring on her finger as everyone cheers. Angela looked at her best friend and smiled.“Ok Bradford, how did you do it” Angela asked.“Well, I had the ring and thought ok mistletoe. That’s so cliché, so plans changed when Lucy volunteered me to be Santa and I asked her to be Mrs. I wrote the note when I went and changed and now here, we are” Tim said smiling.“Chen you better keep an eye on him and be good to him. “Grey said.“I will, don’t you worry. This was the best Christmas I could ever ask for” Lucy said looking at the ring.“I got one more for you Lucy” Tim said.“Where is it” Lucy asked him.Tim takes her hand and leads her underneath the mistletoe.“Lucy, from the first day I met you as a rookie I didn’t think you’d have so much of an impact on me. You changed me, Lucy Chen. You taught me how to ask for help. You taught me how to finally be myself. That’s what I am thankful for this season” Tim said holding her hands.“Tim, you changed me also. Your Tim Tests taught me everything I need to know as a cop. You make me a better person. Even if I didn’t want to admit it” Lucy said looking at the ring.“Lucy, I was scared but now I can call you my own” Tim said pulling her into a hug.“Yeah, and I can take care of you after all the milk you drink” Lucy said hugging him.“You are never going to let me live that one down aren’t you Chen” Tim said.“Nope and neither will Lopez” Lucy said.Tim pulls her into a deep kiss under the mistletoe. Lucy smiled knowing that this will be the best Christmas ever!
