    Summary

    While their little game started after Jamie's knob incident, the red string that bound them had been spinning a tale for decades. It wasn't as though neither of them realised they were obsessed with one another, oh no, they knew that, but this was different. The game they played now, of teasing hands and soft mouths was the foundation of something else entirely...

    (Or Jamie and Roy are obsessed with each other and don't fuck until they do.)

    Summary

    Maybe it was just simple force of habit from all the times he’d done the same for Phoebe, but whatever the reason, Roy leaned over and fucking kissed Jamie’s knee better.

    Summary

    "Jade... what's the worst thing you've ever done?"

    Nathan is horribly anxious throughout his first real date with Jade, and at the end of the night, back at his place, he tells her the reason why. He's afraid of her reaction when she finally knows the real him, warts and all. But maybe all he needed to do was give her a chance to surprise him.

    Summary

    Padding to the doorway and pausing to be acknowledged, Ted can hear Trent stand in the doorway for what feels like an eternity. He eyes Beard, still out like a light, and squeezes his eyes shut until he sees stars behind his eyes. Ted is not rude. Ted isn’t unkind. Ted is hyper aware at all times. When Ted couldn’t find Trent in the Press Room after the Brentford match…because Ted somehow always knows where Trent is…

    Oh. Well now that’s a bell that can't be unrung.

    Summary

    “Would you like any dessert?” the waiter says. “We have a couples’ special tonight. It’s a caramelized walnut tart with habanero chocolate shavings and a drizzle of-“

    “Oh, we’re not a couple,” Keeley interrupts. “But that does sound tasty.”

    “We were a couple, and then we broke up, which was the worst mistake of my life, and now she’s dating a billionaire investor and I’m happy for her,” Roy says, because it’s the truth, and he sees no point in lying to a waiter they’re never going to see again in their lives.

    Summary

    Roy couldn’t sleep. Every time he closed his eyes, all he saw was Jamie on the pitch, moving the ball, moving the defenders, setting everything exactly as he wanted it to score the goal. No matter how many times he replayed it, he couldn’t find a single flaw. Jamie did exactly what he was supposed to do and everybody was exactly where they were supposed to be and it really was as impossible and effortless as a symphony. And it was Jamie. And it was doing things to him.

    Summary

    He was trying. Jamie had fucking meant it. He wasn’t trying to waste Roy’s time, but the nasty little voice at the back of his skull wondered whether he was wasting it anyway. It was a habit of Jamie’s, wasting his chances.

    Summary

    Roy isn't sure he expects Jamie to shows up at four am this time.

    Jamie shows up.

    ***

    “The next time you want to tie my dick up,” Jamie spits, voice ragged, “just fucking ask, yeah? Don’t drag bloody practice into it!”

    The quiet between them yawns years-wide.

    Jamie’s eyes blaze into Roy’s, hot, wet, and vulnerable. The tight coiled thing inside Roy’s claws at his restraint, his shame, his fear.

    “Fuck you,” Roy hisses, as natural as breathing. Jamie’s brow arches. His lip twitches into that bitchy, arrogant, insufferably handsome half-smile.

    “Fuck me yourself, you fucking coward.”

    Summary

    Jamie confronts Roy about that insane rope exercise. Roy admits it's maybe, sort of a kink. And that he maybe, sort of, maybe might want to tie up Jamie. Jamie likes this idea very, very much.
