Changing Paths
Request: Okay not to be angsty or potentially make Tim Bradford seem ooc but like imagine he had a kid and growing up he was sure she was going to join the LAPD like him bc she always wanted to know how his day at work was (wanting to know what bad guys he caught), and always wanted to ‘play police’ with him but as she grew up she realised that being the kid of a well known/respected police officer can be quite pressuring (see Jackson for example) and she also just discovers new interests growing up too. And when Tim finds out, be it from her directly or from someone else accidentally, he kinda freaks a little like he had this whole plan in his head about her career and it kinda scares him that she’s diverting and potentially going to move away n shit so at first he reacts quite harshly but after some SEVERE talking to from some of his friends he realises his mistakes and apologies and all that jazz (I have no clue if that made sense it just popped into my head)
Pairings: Tim Bradford x Daughter!Reader
Warnings: fluff, angst, cursing
Masterlist
A/N: Thank you @justabigassnerd for requesting this! I may or may not have gotten a little emotional towards the end.
Tumblr media
You weren't like the other girls in your class. You weren't into cheer, barbies, or anything girly.  You loved the action and the adrenaline. You loved sports, football, basketball, baseball and softball, you loved them so much that you've been on the basketball and softball teams. You probably grew a love for it from being raised by only your father, Tim Bradford. You never knew your mother and she was never in the picture having left when you were just a day old. It's just been you and your dad and honestly you loved it. You are your father's entire world and he was so happy when you took interest in his hobbies and interests. Growing up; you had always wanted to be a cop. Your father and you played cops and robbers all the time and he showed you the ropes and taught you the law. You knew the dangers of him being a cop.
You have almost finished your sophomore year of high school, only 10 more days and then it was summer vacation and you had decided to start looking into colleges and a new career path. Your interests were still strong in cops but recently you wanted to steer clear of becoming a cop and you started to become interested in some girly things but not a lot. You saw the toll it took on Jackson West, one of the rookies that was in training with your dad's fellow coworker, Angela Lopez aka your godmother. You saw the stress it put on him to be perfect and not make a mistake. You didn't want that to be you so you started to look for new career paths and one that came to you almost easily was lawyer. Wesley Evers, Angela’s husband and your godfather, kind of inspired this. You loved arguing and you won several arguments and you were also on a debate team for your school and you were good at it like scary good at it. The only thing is you couldn't tell your father, were scared to tell him. He would hate it and try to talk you out of it but you didn't want to be talked out of it. You wanted to talk to someone about it so when your dad had to go to work for the weekend and Angela didn't you begged and pleaded to stay with Angela and Wesley and of course they agreed and so did your dad. He knew you would be fine at home but he wasn't going to keep you away from your godparents or tell you no, he wanted you to feel like you could trust him. So, when he went off to work you gave him a hug and kiss on the cheek and saw him off and then you were getting in your truck and heading over to their house. It was an easy and short drive. You parked in the driveway and turned off the truck and got out, you grabbed your duffle and slung your backpack and headed to the front door. When you got there you knocked on the door and waited with a smile. It wasn't long until it was answered by Wesley with a smile. “Hey, Sweetheart. I'm so glad we have you this weekend. I was missing our bonding time.” He chuckled and so did you as he brought you in for a hug.
“I missed you and Angela too.” You said as you hugged him. 
“Angela will be home in a few. She has some stuff to finish up at work.” He said and you nodded as you released each other and then he was ushering you in as you set your bags down.
“How has everything been?” You asked 
“It's been great. Cases have been going great.” He said “You?” He asked.
“It's been great. I think I've decided on a career path.” You said and he looked at you as you sat down at the bar stool while he grabbed a glass for you and him.
“That's great! What is it?” He asked as he poured some water for him and you.
“I want to be a Lawyer.” You said watching his reaction.
“Excellent career choice, if I do say so myself.” He said smirking and you chuckled “What made you decide that and not cop?” He asked as he leaned against the counter. You shrugged your shoulders.
“I've seen the stress that Jackson has to go through being a cop's son and his father being a higher up cop himself. I love cops, don't get me wrong but waking up every day and going to a job where you have to work to keep an image up just because of who your family is can get to someone. Everyone will know who my father is and expect me to be like him and if I fuck up then it would ruin his image and I can't do that to him.” You said and Wesley listened and nodded.
“I get it. I do. You know Angela and I along with the others will support you. Even though your dad won't like it, he'll be happy for you and support you. He'll love you no matter what. You know why?” He asked and you shook your head.
“Why?” You asked as he came around and you turned to him.
“Because you are his daughter and he's proud of you every day. He loves you so much more than you would ever know. Of course, it'll take him some time to get used to the fact that his daughter is growing up and going into a different field but he won't stop loving you, ever.” He said and brought you into a hug and some tears fell. That is how Angela found you both when she got home. 
“Everything ok here?” She asked slightly concerned and the two of you broke apart and you wiped your eyes.
“Perfect. We were just discussing my career path.” You said
“Ohh do tell.” She said 
“I've decided to become a lawyer.” You said 
“You would be a hell of a good one.” She said and you chuckled.
“I'm just afraid to tell dad. He has this big idea of me being a cop but after seeing how it took a toll on Jackson, I don't want to go through that. It's just what if I fucked up? It would ruin his reputation and image.” You said and she nodded. 
“I've seen how it takes a toll on him. He talks about it a lot. Everyone will support you either way. Believe it or not your dad will too. He's so proud of you each and every day.” Angela said and you smiled.
“That's what Wesley said.” You chuckled and they chuckled as well. “Enough of all these sappy moments.” You said and they chuckled
“And there is your father coming out of you.” Angela said “So, how does Steak Fettuccine Alfredo sound for dinner?” She asked.
“Delicious.” You and Wesley said at the same time and you both looked at each other and everyone laughed. 
“Well let's get to cooking and you,” She pointed at you “Get to working on your homework.” She said and you chuckled.
“Yes ma'am.” You said and went and grabbed your backpack and got your work out. As you were working and they were cooking you got to thinking. “Wesley?” You asked and he looked up.
“What's up?” He asked 
“Could you help me research good law schools?” You asked and he smiled. 
“Absolutely.” He said 
“Could you also help me with the college applications?” You asked 
“You know I will. You'll need some experience and I can help you with that and get you as an intern at the DA office and some law firms.” He said
“Thank you so much.” You said and he smiled.
“It's nothing. Meet me at the precinct Monday after school. I'll help you there and you can sit in on some cases. I'll even let you try your hand at some.” He said 
“Oh, that would be wonderful.” You said 
“You're going to be great at it.” Angela said and you smiled at her. "The rest of the night was spent eating, you working on your homework and getting help when needed, and then some TV time watching cheesy cop shows that Angela liked to make fun of, criticize, and critiquing and some lawyer shows that Wesley and fun criticizing and critiquing as well. Soon everyone was in bed. 
By the time the weekend was over you felt pretty good about everything. You said bye to both of them Sunday morning and headed out the door and got in your truck and headed home. When you got home your dad was home and was out with Kojo in the front yard it seemed like they just got back from their walk. You parked your truck and got out and grabbed your bags and walked over to them locking your truck. Kojo barked happily and tugged on the leash wagging his tail. You dropped your bags and bent down and he started to lick you and you chuckled petting him “Hey handsome boy.” You said and then looked up at your dad smiling. “Hey, Dad.” You said standing up and hugging him.
“Oh, I see I'm second best to a dog.” He said smirking and you chuckled.
“Never. How was work?” You asked
“It was good. Busy.” He said 
“How was Lucy?” You asked, wiggling your eyebrows and he rolled his eyes.
“Good.” He said “How was your weekend at Angela and Wesley's?” He asked.
“Great. We had fun. They helped me with some school work and we made fun of some cop and lawyer shows.” You said and chuckled.
“That's always fun. Let's get inside.” He said and you nodded and grabbed your bags and the three of you headed inside. You dropped your back at the stairs and met your dad in the kitchen. “So have you thought about college?” He asked and you nodded.
“I have. I'm gonna start working on some of the applications Monday. Wesley is going to help me with some stuff so I’ll be at the station after school.” You said 
“That's great. You'll have to let me know which college.” He said and you smiled.
“You know I will.” You said and he chuckled. 
“I'm going to take a shower and then we have all day to spend together.” He said 
“Sounds perfect.” You said smiling and he smiled back. He walked over to kiss your head and then headed off to take a shower. You sighed once you heard the shower turn on. How were you going to tell him that you weren’t going to be a cop and a lawyer instead? It was no secret that cops hated lawyers but it just spoke to you and you were quick to fall in love with it. You wanted this and decided that nothing was going to stand in your way. You must’ve been lost in thought because of the sound of your father’s voice speaking in front of you.
“Are you alright?” He asked and you looked at him confused.
“Yea, why?” You asked
“Because I’ve been speaking to you for the past 5 minutes.” He said 
“Oh, I’m so sorry. I just got lost in my head. So, what do you want to do?” You asked, smiling at him and he gave you a concerned look. 
“I figured that we would just stay in and enjoy our time together. Start with some breakfast and just let the day go from there.” He said and you smiled.
“That sounds like a nice day.” You said and that is what you did. The day was spent laughing together and bantering back and forth playfully. Lunch was eaten and shows were watched and then supper was made and movies were watched. Overall, it was a lazy day and you liked that especially if it was a lazy day with your dad. Soon it was time to go to sleep. 
“Have a good night and I love you.” He said kissing your forehead. 
******************
Monday morning rolled around and you were getting up to the sound of your alarm. You quickly got ready for school and walked downstairs to be greeted by Kojo. Your dad was in the kitchen fixing breakfast for you and him to go. “Good morning handsome boy.” You said bending down and petting the dog on the head and he barked which alerted your father who turned around and smiled.
“Hey!” He said and came over and hugged you kissing your head. “How did you sleep?” He asked.
“Pretty good. Oh, don't forget I'm meeting Wesley today for him to help me.” You said as he stepped back to the food.
“That's right. I'll be looking forward to seeing you and so will everyone else.” He then looked down at his watch. “You need to get going before you're late.” He said as he handed you food and you grabbed your bag. “Be safe and don't do anything illegal.” He said and you chuckled.
“Well, there goes my plan for today.” You said sarcastically and he rolled his eyes and then started to gently usher you out.
“Go go.” He said and you were out the door and to your truck. You got in and headed off to school. You got there and met up with their friends and then the school day started. The first part of the day came and went and when you got to lunch you were quickly heading to the library to meet with your debate team as always. While you all ate everything and anything were discussed you all had met in your law class which is the only class you looked forward to was your law class. If it were up to you could stay in this class all day long and not complain about it. You really don’t know where the sudden change of career paths came from but you honestly didn’t mind it. It was your last class of the day and you were excelling in it. 
The final bell rang signaling the end of the day and you were quickly packing up and heading out to your truck. Once there you opened it and put your pack back away and then started it and once all clear you headed off to the precinct. When you got there and parked beside your dad’s truck you saw Lucy Chen, your dad’s former rookie but now partner, standing by the shop and you were quick to turn off your truck and get out to greet her. “Hey, Lucy!” You said happily as she turned at the sound of her name. She smiled when she saw it was you.
“Hey, what are you doing here?” She asked as she hugged you.
“Wesley is helping me with college stuff and he told me he was going to be here. So, I’m here.” You said as you both released each other from the hug.
“That’s right. Tim told me you were picking colleges. Do you have a career path in mind?” She asked and you nodded.
“I do.” You said smiling and she smiled back.
“That’s great! What is it?” She asked
“I want to be a lawyer.” You said 
“That would be great for you.” She said “I’m just curious as to why you don’t want to be a police officer.” She said curiously and you smiled.
“I have considered it but after seeing the stress and what it is doing to Jackson I decided against it. I love law enforcement but being a lawyer, I feel like it would be less pressure and less dangerous. Also, I would have to uphold an image and if I fuck up then people would be saying something like “Well your dad did it this way and wouldn’t have fucked it up.” and I don’t want that. Plus, it could ruin his image too and I don’t want that either.” You explained and she listened and nodded.
“I get it. Whatever route you take I’ll be there backing you up and so will everyone else especially your dad. We’re so proud of you, especially Tim.” She said as your dad came out and greeted you both.
“I shouldn’t be too late tonight. If I am then I’ll let you know.” He said and you nodded. “Oh, Wesley is in the briefing room. He just got done with dealing with a client.” He said.
“Thank you. I’ll see you later, Lucy. Love you dad.” You said 
“See you later.” Lucy said 
“Love you too.” Your dad said and you were heading off into the precinct as they got ready to go.
******************
Lucy and Tim had just been on the road for an hour after leaving you at the precinct and started patrolling the area. It was silent in the shop as Tim liked it but Lucy did not. “So, Y/N said she has picked a career field and is starting to research colleges.” Lucy said.
“Yea that’s right. She’s going to be a good cop.” He said and Lucy looked at him confused.
“No, she told me that she was going to be a lawyer.” Lucy said and then suddenly the shop came to a screeching halt and Lucy was thrown forward against her seatbelt that luckily locked into place to prevent her from crashing into the dash. Tim looked at her.
“No, she’s going to school to become a cop.” He said defensively and she shook her head.
“No, she didn't, she told me that she wanted to be a lawyer.” She said “You can ask her yourself.” She said and suddenly the shop was jerking around and they were heading back to the precinct. “What the hell? Where are we going?” She asked, hanging on for dear life as he finally straightened the shop out.
“Back to the precinct. You’re wrong and I’m going to prove it.” He said
******************
“So what colleges are you thinking about?” Wesley asked as he sat on the table in front of you. 
“I was thinking in state. I don’t want to be too far away from home and I want to visit dad whenever I can.” You said as you pulled your laptop out and he nodded.
“I can certainly help with that. Stanford is the top choice for California.” He said and you nodded.
“Which one did you go to?” You asked
“I went to Whittier Law School.” He said “We can certainly look into that one but I’m sure you want the best right?” He asked and you shrugged.
“I mean yes but I would be happy to get into any of them to be honest.” You said and he nodded.
“That’s a good way of thinking. Have you considered going out of state?” He asked 
“Yes, but I just know California better but if going out of state is what it takes then I’m all for it.” You said
“I like that you’re keeping your mind open.” He said “Why don’t we apply to some in state and out of state. We’ll research them and then go from there.” He said and you nodded smiling.
“I like the sound of that.” You said and so the two of you set off getting to work on researching and starting applications. Angela walked in and the both of you looked up from your computer.
“How’s it going in here?” She asked
“Pretty well. Wouldn’t you say?” You asked, turning to Wesley and he nodded.
“I agree she really knows her stuff and knows a lot about these colleges.” He said and you smiled.
“I just don’t want to make the wrong choice.” You said and they both smiled.
“I wish more people were like that.” Wesley said and then you caught your dad storming in and heading straight for the briefing room. Your eyebrows scrunched together and then the door was slamming open before your godparents could ask you what was wrong. 
“Dad?” You asked as they both turned to him and he was fuming.
“What is this I’m hearing about you becoming a lawyer?” He asked and you looked at Wesley and Angela and they both looked at you.
“We’ll be outside if you need us.” Angela said and you nodded and once they were out of the room you turned to look at him. 
“Dad-” You started but he cut you off.
“Why the hell didn’t you tell me? I had to find out from Lucy.” He said arms crossed and now you were fuming not at Lucy but the way he was taking it. 
“This is why I didn’t tell you. I knew how you would react. Yes, I want to be a lawyer and yes, my plan was to become a cop but that has changed now.” You said
“No, you’re going to be a cop and that is final. I have your whole path mapped out.” He said and you shook your head and stood up almost like you were squaring up to him you were not backing down from this fight.
“See that is the problem right there. Your dream is for me to be like you. Yes, I wanted to be a cop but that has changed. I’ve seen the way it has affected Jackson and put pressure on him to be like his father. I don’t want that pressure on me. What if I do become a cop and don’t mount up to your expectations or what other people that know you. What will they say? I’ll tell you ‘Oh your father would be so disappointed.’ ‘You’ll never be as good as him.’ ‘Why aren’t you more like him?’ ‘You need to be more like your father.’ ‘Your father wouldn’t have done it that way, he would've done it this way.’ Do you know what that does to someone? It breaks them down and makes them feel like they’re not good enough. I would feel like a disgrace if I did become a cop and fucked up one way or the other.” You explained tears starting to form but not from sadness from anger “I get it you’re disappointed in me now and I’m sorry about that but it is my life, Dad. My interests have changed and so have my plans. I was looking to go to a college in state to be closer to you but now I think I’m going to start looking out of state because I don’t think I can be in the same state doing what I love while my father is disappointed in me for what I love. I don’t think I can deal with being in the same state going to law school while my father hates what I want to come. It’s no secret that cops hate lawyers and the thought of my own father hating me just because I want to be a lawyer kills me and I hate that feeling because I love you and I always will even if you can’t stand me or love me anymore just because I don’t want to become a cop.” You said and he had been silent the whole time still fuming.
“I’ve already put in a good word for you at the police academy and you will be going. I would still love you not hate you and wouldn't be disappointed.” He said angry that you would say such things and you huffed because you knew he didn’t like lawyers, the only one he did like was Wesley and that is it. Hell, the only reason he did was because he was married to Angela and they watched you as a kid. 
“Oh, bull fucking shit you would hate me, be disappointed, and wouldn’t love me because I would be lawyer! You hate them! The only reason you like Wesley is because he is married to Angela and he is my godfather. If he wasn’t any of those things that you wouldn’t even like him.” You said throwing your hands up getting frustrated. “You’re also not fucking listening to me!” You yelled out.
“Don’t curse at me and you know that is not true.” He warned and said and you saw red.
“I wouldn’t be cursing at you if you didn’t fucking listen to what I just said and also yes, it is true. Hear me when I say this.  I. Don’t. Want. To. Be. A. Cop.”  You said punctuating each word “I want to be a lawyer.” You added “If you can’t accept that then that is saying something. You can’t even support your own daughter in her interests and that is sad, truly sad. I just hope when I do become a lawyer you won’t hate me. If you do then I won’t even bother coming home on holidays, I’ll stay away. I won’t even contact you because you’ll be so disappointed in me. So, congratulations, you just lost your daughter.” You finished and grabbed your computer and shoved it into your bag and stormed out with him following you looked at Wesley. “I think I’m going to go out of state.” You said and walked off.
“Y/N, I’m sorry.” Lucy said and you shook your head.
“Not your fault, it was bound to come out at some point.” You said and rushed off opting to take the stairs instead of waiting for the elevator. Once you got down them and out the door you went to the truck and got in you bawled and then decided you couldn’t stay here any longer and went to the next person you trusted and knew would support you and who knew you wanted to be lawyer, John Nolan. 
******************
Back at the station Angela, Wesley, Lucy, and Wade Grey were all standing outside of the briefing room shocked and to be honest a little pissed at Tim for the way he handled it. Grey knew all about your dream to become a lawyer; he actually encouraged it and was also helping you out. Angela was seeing red the most. She knew you wanted so much to please your dad but you wanted to be a lawyer. She loved you like you were her own kid. “What the hell is wrong with you?” She asked angrily when he came out.
“What?” He asked as she pushed him back into the room and shut the door making it clear that she wanted to be left alone with him.
“You know she hates disappointing you and you just made her feel like she just did because she’s not doing what you want her to do.” She said 
“That is not true. I just wanted her to carry on the police career.” He said “She would make a hell of a cop.” He said.
“She would but if she fucked up then what? You’ll be much harder on her and she would push herself until she burnt herself out. She doesn’t want to let you down which is why she is picking another career field.” Angela said 
“That is not true.” He said 
“Yes, it is. She doesn’t think you would be proud of her if she didn’t pick what you wanted her to be.” She said 
“That is not true. I would be proud of her and I wouldn’t be disappointed in her or not love her.” He said 
“Well, with the fight you both just had she’s thinking you’re not proud and that you don’t love her and are disappointed in her.” She said
“I didn’t mean it that way.” He defended
“It sure as hell sounded like it. It is a well-known fact that cops hate lawyers and now she thinks you’re going to hate her. She has been so scared to tell you that she wanted to be a lawyer and not a cop. I’ve never in my life seen her scared but when she was over the other night and told us she was. Let me tell you she was scared.” She said and that seemed to click something in his head.
“She was scared?” He asked and Angela nodded. 
“She told me that she was afraid to tell you. Because you had this big idea of me being a cop, she has seen the toll it had taken on Jackson and she doesn’t want to go through that. She said if she fucked up then it would ruin his reputation and image.” You said and she nodded.
“How do I make this up?” He asked
“Go talk to her and reassure that you’re not going to hate her, be disappointed in her, and not going to stop loving her. If I know her then she’s going to be at Nolan’s house.” Angela said and he nodded and then left. Grey stopped him.
“You better fix this.” He said and Tim nodded.
“Yes, Sir.” Tim said and then he was leaving with Lucy behind him because they were still on shift and they were off to Nolan’s house.
******************
When you got to Nolan’s house you were quick to park and shut the engine off. You got out and locked the door and headed for his front door. When you got there you were quick to knock and didn’t have to wait long before the door was opening. “Y/N/N, What’s wrong?” He asked as you slammed into him hugging him and started to sob. He backed the two of you up until he could shut the door.
“Dad found out that I wanted to be a lawyer. We had a big fight. I have just seen what being a kid of a cop does to someone, that someone being Jackson. I don’t want a strained relationship like that but I think I just ruined that.” You said as he pulled back you wiped your tears. 
“I don’t think your relationship is ruined. He’s going to be proud of you no matter what career you go into. Sure, it may take some time to get used to but he won’t stop loving you.” Nolan said and you nodded. He always knew what to say.
“Can I stay here for a while? Just until I have enough guts to go home and face him.” You asked and he smiled and nodded.
“Of course, stay as long as you like.” He said 
“Thank you.” You said 
“It’s not a problem.” He said as you both went into the kitchen “Hungry?” He asked and you smiled at him.
“Maybe just a little.” You said 
“Food coming right up.” He said and started to fix something to snack on. You two talked about anything to just take your mind off of everything. It wasn’t 10 minutes later there was another knock on the door, this one more authoritative. Nolan went to answer it and you listened. 
“Is Y/N/N here?” Your dad’s voice came through.
“Yeah, she is. Come on in. She’s in the kitchen.” He said and when you heard their footsteps coming closer you looked up and eyes met your dads. 
“Can we talk?” He asked you and you looked hesitant and you looked at Nolan and he nodded giving you encouragement.
“Yea.” You said quietly the feeling of defeat and disappointment still there.
“I’ll be no here.” Nolan said and awkwardly made his outside and you chuckled but turned serious when you looked at your dad.
“I’m not changing my mind on the career field.” You said getting defensive.
“I’m not going to ask you to.” He said and you looked confused.
“But you want me to be a cop.” You said 
“That is true and I still do but I had a very stern talking done by Angela. I was angry and let my emotions take over when I heard you wanted to be a lawyer from Lucy and not you but I’m over it now. I’m sorry I reacted like that. I want you to do what you want to do and if that is to be a lawyer then so be it. I will love you and be proud of you either way. When I heard that you were scared to tell me it killed me, I never want you to be scared to tell me anything. I want you to come to me for anything. I’m so sorry for making you feel like I wouldn’t love you. I will always love you. I will always be proud of you. You could never disappoint me, Y/N/N. You being my daughter makes me so proud. I really hope you don’t go out of state. I don’t want you to stop talking to me. I want you to come home for the holidays. I don’t want you to stay away, I want you closer.” He said and you started to cry “Come here.” He said and brought you into a hug. “I’m so proud of you every day. I will always be proud of you even if you become a lawyer, hell you’re already good at arguing.” He said chuckling and you chuckled too. 
“You really don’t care if I become a lawyer?” You asked and he shook his head.
“I wouldn’t care if you became an FBI agent. I would be so proud of you.” He said
“You know that was a consideration.” You said and chuckled.
“I wouldn’t put it past you. Which part?” He asked as you both pulled away.
“The Behavioral Analysis Unit.” You said “I know some of them there.” You added.
“Do I wanna know?” He asked and you chuckled.
“It’s nothing bad.” You said and he looked at you. “I promise.” You said and he nodded.
“Ok, just making sure. So what college were you thinking in state?” He asked
“Stanford. Wesley said it was the best one.” You said
“Wesley knows what is best when it comes to law.” He chuckled and he nodded and after a beat of silence he added “I love you and I’m so proud of you, you know that right?” He asked and you nodded.
“I love you too dad and I know.” You said and then Nolan was awkwardly popping his head in.
“Do I still have a daughter?” He asked and you smiled.
“Yea, you still have a daughter.” You replied
“Good because I love her so much and am proud of her.” He said and you smiled and hugged him. It was silent for a minute. The only sound you could hear was his heartbeat, a sound you loved now and have since you were a baby, until Nolan was knocking on the now opened door as his head popped into the house.
“I don’t hear anymore talking or yelling and I got concerned that you both have killed each other but I see you both haven’t killed each other which is good.” He said and you both chuckled and smiled at his antics. “Everything ok?” He asked and you nodded.
“Everything is ok.” Your dad said.
“More than ok. Everything is great.” You said and they both smiled.
“Well on that note. Anybody hungry?” Nolan asked and you along with your dad smiled.
“I have to get back to work.” Your dad said.
“But I can stay.” You said and Nolan nodded.
“Great! I’ll get snacks started.” He said and walked into the kitchen. You turned to your dad. 
“Be safe and I love you.” You said.
“You know I will and I love you too.” He said and hugged him one last time before he had to get going. When he left you turned your attention to Nolan who was turning around with food in his hands. As you spent the rest of the time with Nolan until you had to go home for supper and because of school the next day. When you got home your dad was already there and when you parked beside his truck and turned the engine off and got out after grabbing your bag and locked it you walked into the house. 
“Y/N/N, that you?” He asked as Kojo ran and greeted you.
“Yea, it's more.” You said as you kicked your shoes off and dropped your bag. You walked into the kitchen where he was making dinner. 
“Good. Food is ready. You wanna eat at the table or the couch?” He asked
“Couch.” You both said at the same time and you both chuckled. You grabbed a plate and filled it and then he did too and then you were both headed to the couch and sitting down. He turned on the show that you’ve both been watching together. As you ate you got to thinking of how lucky you were to have him as a dad and he was thinking of how lucky he was to have you as a daughter. After you ate you cuddled into him and he snuggled you. 
“I’m so proud of you each and every day. I love you so much.” He said and you smiled.
“I know, Dad. I love you too.” You said and he smiled into your hair as he kissed the top of your head. That is how you spent the rest of the night, cuddled in the protective and loving arms of your father.

Broken Skies (Bradley Bradshaw x Mitchell! Reader) Chapter 1
Note: I apologize for the long long wait. I was really lacking motivation and just on a long writer's block for the past few months. But here is Chapter 1 for Broken Skies. The Sneak Peak is linked below for those that have not read it yet. And also thank you @justabigassnerd and @callsign-dexter for motivating me to write more! ❤️
This is a redo of my Bradley Bradshaw Part 1. This is more of a prequel rather than a sneak peek this time. Mel - “one who is fearless and daring.” Canon characters are out of character. Iceman will be healthy in this fic. 
Warnings: Nothing big, maybe angst, other than a brief mention of death, and military inaccuracies. NOT grammar/spelling checked. Some switching between first names and callsigns.
Masterlist | Sneak Peek | Chapter 1
Tumblr media
In the room with Cyclone and Warlock, Maverick looked at the screen and saw 2 very familiar faces. Cyclone looked at Maverick and asked, “Is there a problem, Captain?” Maverick looks at him, “You know there is sir.” Cyclone signed and zoomed in on your picture, “Lieutenant Mitchell, callsign Mel, one of the best pilots I have seen in years. She was top of her class. Two confirmed air-to-air kills. You must be very proud. Captain.” Maverick smiles, “I am, sir. I’m proud of her every day.”  
Maverick was indeed proud. Starting from the second you were born, he knew you would be a mini him the second he got called for a parent-teacher meeting for you not following directions and being a bit rebellious. There was also the first time he took you on your first little joyride, instead of being scared like  most people that are thousands of feet up in the air going hundreds of miles per hour, you were so excited. You had the time of your life. You especially loved when he did aerobatics. You kept on asking him to do another one, he often wondered how you never got dizzy or felt nauseous. As you grew older, you went on to be just like him.  If not, maybe even a little better. Now here you are, getting called back to Top Gun to be a possible candidate for a special detachment. This isn’t like the past missions you’ve been on. This is life or death. He knows there is a chance someone isn’t coming back. 
Cyclone then zoomed in on another person. Rooster. “Bradley Bradshaw aka Rooster. I understand you flew with his old man. What was his call-sign again?” “Goose, sir” “Tragic what happened.” Warlock cuts in defending Maverick. All Maverick could do was nod. Memories of what happened replaying in his mind.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
“Dad?” You saw your dad sitting by the bar alone. You thought he’s in the desert working on the Death Star. Why is he here?  He turned around and you smiled excitedly going over and hugging him as tight as possible. You felt him hug back just as tight. “Hey sweetheart.” You always loved the daddy-daughter hugs. It made you feel safe and relaxed. You haven’t seen him in person in almost a year. 
“What are you doing here? I thought you’re supposed to be somewhere in the desert.” You saw the look he gave and you couldn’t help but grin. “You pissed off another admiral, didn’t you?” He chuckled at your response. “You could say that.” You sat next to him. “So… what are you doing here at North Island? Did Uncle Ice tell you I was here?”  You asked him. 
“Well uh…. in a manner of speaking.” You noticed the look your dad had. There was worry in his eyes. You hadn’t seen that look in a long time. “You’re here for the detachment… aren’t you? That’s why you’re here.” He gave you a look. You knew the answer. “How bad is it going to be?” You looked to your dad. “I can’t say too much yet, but … this is something no one’s ever seen.” All you could do was nod. Before you can react you felt him rub your shoulders. “It’s going to be okay. I promise. You’re the best fighter pilot I know.” You let out a little chuckle, “don’t let Uncle Ice hear you say that.” You heard him let out some chuckles.
You talked with your dad for a little longer to catch up on everything. He told you that the Kazansky’s invited you both over for dinner tomorrow night. You were excited, as you have seen your Uncle Ice and Aunt Sarah in a while. You heard your name being called, looking over you saw Jake and Javy calling you over. You heard your dad’s voice, “go on, go catch up with them.” You looked over to him. “Are you sure?” “I’m sure. We have plenty of time to catch up more.” You smiled and hugged him one last time before going over. 
“What’s Pops doing here?” Jake asked after pulling you into a hug. You didn’t want to ruin the surprise. “He’s here visiting old friends.” You responded as Javy pulled you in for a side hug. 
As you talked, you caught up with Phoenix, you met some new members: Bob, who was so sweet, Payback and Fanboy who both were really nice, although you felt a little competitiveness between them and Jake and Javy. Jake would not stop teasing Bob, you had to nudge him a few times hoping he’d stop messing with the guy. 
Maverick watched as his little girl bonded with her teammates. Despite Jake's reputation he trusted him that he wouldn’t leave his daughter behind, but he is unsure if he would do the same for the rest of the team.
You looked over and saw a familiar face entering the Hard Deck. Bradley Bradshaw.
Bradley walked over to the group. “Bradshaw.” “Hangman… you look good” “Well, I am good Rooster, I’m very good. In fact, I��m too good to be true.” Hangman responds, smirking. Bradley then looked over to you. “Mel.” “Rooster.” “Why am I not surprised you’re here?” You rolled your eyes, scoffing at his remark. You knew what he was thinking, he still believed the reason  you made it this far is because of your dad and uncle. “Well who else did you expect?”  
Before Bradley could say another word, Jake cuts in, “you’re just jealous Bradshaw, admit it, you will never fly like Mel here. She takes risks unlike a certain someone. She’ll make a great mission leader, but anyone that follows you will just run out of fuel. Waiting for the right moment that never comes.” You felt Jake’s arm snake around your shoulders. 
Jake is your best friend, you could say. Sure, during training he would leave his wingman and fly off, but during the missions he was never like that. At least not to you. He saved your  life; that’s how he got his first confirmed air to air kill. If it wasn’t for him, you would not be standing here right now.
Bradley suddenly felt a ping of jealousy growing inside him. Since when were you and Hangman so close? But Bradley being Bradlet, he chose to ignore it. “And anyone that follows you will just end up in a grave.” That ticked you off a little. You wished Jake would let you tell everyone what really happened that day. You don’t get why Jake wants to keep it a secret, he loves to show off. Only a few people know the exact details. 
“They’re on me! I can’t shake them!” you said with a panicking voice. With an enemy aircraft chasing after you at full speed. Trying different maneuvers, you dodged as many bullets that you could. That’s when you heard a beeping sound; the enemy got a lock on you. Just as  you started accepting your fate, there was an explosion sound. You looked over and saw the enemy fighter jet blowing up into pieces. “You owe me a drink, Mel.” Y/N looked over and saw Hangman giving her a grin. He just saved your life, for once not living up to his callsign.
After that, it was Hangman and Mel. Jake and Y/N. You became best friends and each other’s wingperson.
Other than Rear Admiral Jackson, Javy, Maverick and Iceman, no one knew it was Jake that saved you. Jake wanted to keep it a secret. With the help from Iceman, no one knew what really happened. Because the mission only needed 2 pilots, it made it easier to hide the truth.
Maverick was watching the whole scene play out in front of him, feeling the guilt bubble inside him knowing he was the reason his daughter and Bradley are no longer friends. He remembers how close they were as kids, how they never left each other’s side. He hopes this mission will bring them together again.
The night went on, he ended up being broke after not realizing the rules at Penny’s bar. Jake and the others had the joy of “throwing” him out of the bar. You knew it was all fun and games. You knew your dad took a liking to him after he saved your life that day. Even you let out a little laugh watching it all play out. 
You heard a familiar tune starting to play in the background, you looked over to the piano and saw Bradley sitting there. The tune that your uncle Goose, Bradley’s dad always plays. You remembered how you and Bradley would sit on the piano with your dad, Uncle Goose and Aunt Carole gathered around singing “Great Balls of Fire” together. Your eyes wandered around and noticed your dad outside staring towards where Bradley is. You knew he misses them too. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------
You sat next to Jake and Javy waiting for the debrief to start. You had this feeling that something was going to happen today and it was not the good kind of feeling. You know Bradley will not be happy knowing who the instructor for the detachment is going to be. You also know he will be mad that you didn’t warn him. But he has no right to feel that way. After all, you two were basically on no speaking terms. Cyclone’s voice disrupted your thoughts. “Good morning aviators.” 
At morning debriefing, Cyclone and Warlock went over the details of this mission. Just from hearing the details about what is going to happen, you knew this was going to be a detachment like no other. As he introduced who the instructor was going to be, you knew exactly who they were talking about, even though you already found out last night. You only know one person that fits the description so perfectly. 
You couldn’t help but look over to Bradley, wondering how he is going to react when he sees your dad. You can see him tense up as he sees your dad walk in. This is going to be a very long day. Bradley made eye contact with you and he was not happy, just as you had predicted minutes ago.  After the debrief, you and everyone else waited to be selected to go up in the air. First ones up were you, Phoenix, Bob, and Rooster. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------
As you walked towards your fighter jet when you heard your name being called. “Why didn’t you tell me he was going to be the instructor?” You knew he was going to ask this. “How am I supposed to tell you if all we ever do is argue when we talk?” “Yea, well you’re the one that always starts it” “Are you serious Bradley? Look at us. Besides, would it really make a difference if I did?” “Yea, it actually would have.” 
As the training session went on, no one has been able to get a lock on Maverick. not even you. You were close but he is always steps ahead. And thanks to the little bet, everyone was punished with 200 pushups.
Now it is time for Phoenix, Bob, Hangman, and Roosters turn. You listened to the radio as Jake asked Bradley some personal questions. There was one secret you never told Jake, it was the exact details about you, your dad, and Bradley. All he knows is you and Bradley had an argument, he left and that was that. 
You heard your dad’s voice. Encouraging Bradley to take a little risk instead of playing it safe. Jake’s voice came in warning them about getting below the hard deck level amd telling Rooster to take the shot. Soon through the radio, you head the alerts going off telling them to pull up. You are holding your breath at this point. No matter how upset you were at Bradley, you didn’t want to lose him and your dad.  A few seconds later, you heard your dad’s voice. He got a lock on Bradley. What on earth were they thinking?
--------------------------------------------------------------------
You stormed up to Bradley angry. “What was that Bradshaw?! Are you trying to get kicked out?” “Oh like you care, you probably would love to see me off this mission.” You couldn’t believe what you were hearing. It’s like he never changed. “I worked hard to get here and you know it!” “Well not everyone is lucky enough to have their dad and the Commander of the Pacific Fleet as their teacher!” He snapped back. You froze, not believing the words that just came out of his mouth. Not wanting to continue this anymore, you shook your head and walked away in silence. You knew if you stayed longer, you would end up saying something you’d regret, and possibly escalating the argument.
“Why are you such close friends with Hangman? You know what type of person he is!” You stopped in your tracks. Why did he change the conversation to this? Was he jealous? You turned around facing him once again, letting out your anger. “You’re right, I know what type of person he is. You don’t! You let your judgments get clouded too easily, you’ll just assume the worst in people!” You saw the look Bradley had on his face, hearing him let out a scoff, “all he ever did was leave his wingman behind! Everyone knows that! Why won’t you believe me?!” 
You don’t know what came over yourself. You’ve kept it in for years. Coming up with reasons why Bradley cut off contact with you, why he barely said anything to you during your time at Top Gun, why he treated you like you were nothing. He didn’t even believe you told him that you had nothing to do with his application being pulled. And now all of a sudden he cares about who you’re friends with. You knew what Hangman was like to others. That’s just a character he built up; he doesn’t want to seem weak or soft, easy to push around. Sure he messes around during training, but when it comes to the real thing, he takes things seriously. 
“You want to know why? Fine. He never left me hanging! He didn’t cut off contact with me for something I didn’t do!  He trusted me! He never assumed I got in just because of my last name! He didn’t hurt me the way you did!”
You were mad at your dad too, especially at first. But after a lot of begging, he finally told you why he pulled Bradley’s application; you understood, it was an extremely difficult decision. Adding on to it, it was his best friend’s dying wish.
You quickly walked away going to the locker rooms. You heard Bradley call out your name, but you chose to ignore it. Today did not turn out the way you had expected. It hasn’t even been 24 hours since the first time you saw Bradley in years and he is still the same.

hiya lovely! glad to hear you enjoyed New Relationship!
as I stated in the author note for that fic, I will be doing a follow-up fic and continuing on the Hangman Junior Universe :)))
I would've delved into Jake and Bradley's reaction to finding out about the relationship had I not become aware of how many lengthy fics I've put out recently so out of guilt I cut it off there so I could explore Jake's feelings properly

Hello c:, do you still write about the lil’Hunt Universe? I really liked it, and you’re the only one who writes about it, could you do another one? 😭 if not it’s okay, but I just want to know
hiya lovely!
I do still write about the Lil' Hunt universe, it's just as of late I've not had much motivation to write for it as of late with the lack of Mission Impossible content so my motivation hasn't been great for it.
but I have been spending A LOT of time planning Lil' Hunt's future that will begin to come out after the next Mission Impossible film comes out (I just need some of that lovely last minute canon information before I write anything that regards her future).
much love <3

Sending you love and hugs for whatever you need it for.
How about the entire squad reminding the reader about how smart they are because they are upset about an exam score they received after study their ass off for it?? (I recently took like five exams over the past 3 days and I’m not feeling confident about the potential scores for any of them).
P.S. from all I have read so far I love your writing💜💙
thank you so much for the love and hugs, the same right back at you my dear <3
oh the Daggers would be the best support after a bad test. they'd sit with you and tell you all about how that test doesn't define anything and that they don't think any less of you because of it. I could see Mickey suggesting a group movie night or something to cheer you up and get your mind off everything. they're just the best group to be around 100%
blimey 5 exams over 3 days would kill me off then and there I am so proud of you no matter the results and I know the Daggers would be so proud of you too!
aw bless I'm glad you enjoy my writing, stuff like that makes me very happy to hear
much love <3

how would reacher handle lil reacher having a nightmare??
firstly, I am so sorry for taking so long to respond to this, life has been all over the place y'know?
secondly, I think Jack would definitely take some getting used to with the whole handling nightmares thing
I imagine Little Reacher would have a fair few nightmares after the whole kidnapping thing and would often wake up upset which in turn would wake Jack up
while he's not a man of physical affection, I could picture Jack sitting down alongside Little Reacher and encouraging her to tell him what her nightmare was about and let her know that while it was scary for her, it was just a dream and that he'd always be around to protect her. and I also imagine that with a bit of time he'd be a bit more open to letting her snuggle up against him for some comfort (and he wouldn't complain if she ended up falling asleep against him either)
feel free to send in more questions about my fics/universes :)
much love <3

For the Hangman Junior universe...maybe YN and like Javys kids possibly become a thing.
Maybe the relationship was always awkward as for that their dad's were best friends but they hated each other.
Maybe one day Jake and Javy were supposed to pick them up because they live a bit away from school and neither of their dads pick pick them up so even though they hate each other they actually decided to walk and talk to each other maybe Bradley is out the dog and he knows that Jake was supposed to pick her up so he didn't call or be at home. They walk back and Bradley sees her cross the road away from Javy son and ask her where's her dad where she's like pissed and tells him that his husband forgot about her. Maybe when Jake gets home this is a reason and the argument starts.
The next few days coyote's son and her become closer like an enemies to lovers and their parents start to pick up their habits and maybe like some confrontations and everything but they deny everything because they still hate each other.
Maybe later on their parents walk in on them making out or something, totally fine if you don't like the concept!
Love to see this universe make a comeback😘
hiya lovely,
firstly I want to thank you for giving me this request which inspired me to reenter the Hangman Junior universe
secondly, I hope I did your idea justice (I apologise in advance for the changes I did make along the way)
you can read 'New Relationships' here
much love <3

Ooooo what if the reader boyfriend is joining the military in the Hangman Junior?

Oooo I love the concept of Hangman Junior having a boyfriend. We just know that Jake will be in extreme dad mode. Like "I like him but I don't like what he does" mode towards boyfriend
oh I agree 100%!
I mean I am in the process of planning the story at the moment and I'm definitely looking forward to implementing some protective Jake (and Bradley of course but mostly Jake)
much love <3

omg
imagine Ethan hunt with a daughter!!!!! she would be the most loved and protected child ever!!! She would have the IMF wrapped around her finger
don’t even I was thinking about this the second I left the cinema!
like we already know Ethan would do anything to keep his friends safe but his daughter would be on a whole other level he’d move heaven and earth to keep his daughter safe
she’d obviously never go in the field (at least when she’s young) with Ethan bc he wants to keep her safe, people are already after him he doesn’t need them to know he has a kid or she’ll become a target to get to him by anyone who wants to hurt/kill him, so most of her time would be spent in the safe houses while Luther & Benji do their stuff and so she’s very close with them as well (and if they ever got found in a safe house Luther & Benji would do anything to make sure lil’ Hunt was safe before anything else)
Ethan would probably often wonder as well if he should’ve brought a kid into this life but she has no one else and Ethan couldn’t find it within him to give her up when he first held her.
after tough missions Ethan would return to whatever safe house they were in and spend some time cuddling with his little girl, reassuring her that he’s okay and she’s safe as long as he and the rest of the IMF are around
sorry I kinda went off on one there but these thoughts have been stewing all night and this was the perfect opportunity to get them out
much love <3

comfort ideas game on!!!!!
imagine Ethan comforting his daughter the first time she had to shoot someone in order to protect him (or herself because he wasn’t there).
ohh I love this!
Ethan would be so quick to comfort his little girl after it happened. he can see how terrified she is of the fact that she shot someone (even if it was someone trying to hurt her or her dad).
I could see him carefully taking the gun from her and just calming her down by talking to her and reassuring her that she did what she had to and that they were safe now. and I can imagine he'd get her away from everything as soon as possible and would spend the rest of the day in a calm and quiet environment to make sure she fully calms down so he can then make sure she's okay
I actually have this as a request in my inbox as well so again these are kinda condensed thoughts but it's a general gist of things
much love <3
