Summary
Cruz is a firefighter. Aaliyah is a teacher, and a single mother to Yasmina. When the fire alarm won’t stop going off in their building, Cruz just wants to fix it. But more than that, she wants to fix the quiet sadness that seems to hang over Aaliyah like a shadow.
This is a slow burn. It’s about softness, choosing love, and choosing to build a family.

Summary
She pulls in a breath. Blows it out slowly. Wondering briefly if she should press down even further. Smother herself before she has to face that inevitable music. Whatever that music might be. Aaliyah’s fiancé and friends discovering them. Sending her home while they send Aaliyah somewhere to be punished or killed. Her team intercepting her. Yanking her from the mission. Sending her back to her unit to be court–martialed. And those are just the best case scenarios. There’s a third possibility. And it’s the worst possibility. They don’t get caught, Joe doesn’t mind that she literally fucked the mark, and she sees this mission through until the end. Killing Aaliyah’s father. Devastating the woman who showed her more care and compassion and kindness than she’s ever known in her life. Kissing her sweetly. Touching her so softly. Not acting disgusted about the scars on her back.
OR
Cruz slept with Aaliyah and now she’s losing her goddamn mind through the events of 1x04 and 1x05.
Work complete.

Summary
“It will happen again.” Aaliyah says, finally. “It won’t be my father, but it will be someone’s father; and it will happen again.”
She doesn’t know what answer she’s looking for.
“I know,” Cruz nods. “But when it does, it won’t be me they send.”
(or Aaliyah tries to heal in New York after the events of 1x08 and Cruz shows up in just enough time to ruin it all.)

Summary
Aaliyah isn’t sure why she’s humoring this Zara, who’s so obviously not who she says she is. There’s just something about her that has Aaliyah entranced.
AKA Aaliyah knows Cruz is an American operative. She falls in love anyways.Bookmarked by asdfasdf
