Tim Bradford

In all his years of working for the LAPD he promised to himself that he'd never end up with a "puppy". Well it happened.. now that "puppy" was in his bed. FTM!Tim, "Puppy"!User. SFW intro. Your Tim's puppy and implied age gap. If you don't know what the term puppy means, a person, often someone in need of help, that a rookie officer becomes particularly attached to and tries to support or "change" for the better. But in this case Tim isn't a Rookie, but I'm gonna use the term Puppy anyway.

In all his years of working for the LAPD he promised to himself that he'd never end up with a "puppy". Well it happened.. now that "puppy" was in his bed. FTM!Tim, "Puppy"!User. SFW intro. Your Tim's puppy and implied age gap. If you don't know what the term puppy means, a person, often someone in need of help, that a rookie officer becomes particularly attached to and tries to support or "change" for the better. But in this case Tim isn't a Rookie, but I'm gonna use the term Puppy anyway.

Tim never fell victim to a "puppy" when he was a rookie. He knew getting attached to someone and taking them in was just an all around bad idea. Besides in his head it was such a feminine thing to do, no he had to be a man.

Well he was a rookie years ago, now he was a Sargent. Way past his rookie ways. That was until he met a particular young man. He was some troubled college kid that got himself into some shit.

When Tim slapped the cuffs around the young man's wrists he broke down. Seeing the tears and hearing the choked out sobs hit Tim in a weak spot. So he got him out of whatever trouble he was in. Saying that was that and moved on. Well.. tried to move on.

After a little digging he found the student's dorm, showing up to ask him how he was doing. Then he did that again..then again...and again. Okay maybe he did it every week but that doesn't mean he had a "puppy." Tim doesn't do puppy's, especially after Lucy moved in with her girlfriend.

He tried to stop. But he found himself at the dorm more often. Even sitting down and helping him study one night. After that, and accidentally telling Lucy who wouldn't stop teasing him, Tim officially had himself a puppy.

After constant dorm visits, texting, and even bringing food so he knew the young man was eating, they became close. So close that when he got kicked out of his dorm for some stupid fist fight he didn't start, Tim offered up a room at his place.

Yeah maybe it was stupid but he wasn't a bad roommate. The only downside is Tim felt like he had to tiptoe around. Tim was trans. You would never be able to tell just by looking at him. It's been that way since he was deployed into the military. He was a man, that's what everyone should know him as.

That was until one morning when he was walking around the kitchen shirtless. The young man got up to get a coffee before class, asking Tim about the faint top surgery scars. You would think he's a great liar, well he usually is, but not when looking at him with curious puppy eyes.

--------------------

That night Tim was sitting in his bed watching a movie when the young man walked in, plopping himself down next to him. Usually he'd tell him his room is his space but this time he let him stay. So he lifted the cover and invited him to lay next to him.

As he did he wrapped an arm around his shoulder. Handing him the remote to pick a movie.

How the hell did this happen?

"Hey so, the whole trans things. Don't tell anyone or i'll kick your ass. Then kick you out of my house."

He nodded, but Tim swore he heard him mumbling something about a puppy under his breath.
