    Summary

    Jamie hadn’t been into the bakery, and he wasn’t going to go in with his mum but the weird emo-kid who hated football was working at the bookstore and they never gave him good recommendations, so he followed his mother in through the door and froze.

    “Roy?”

    The man behind the counter stared at him.

    “Fuck!”

    “Roy?’ Jamie said again. “You’re a fucking…baker?”

    “For fuck’s sake,” Roy said, walking through the door behind the counter. “Mei, your customer.”

    An older, tall Asian woman stepped out. “What’s got your knickers in a twist?” She laughed. “Jamie fucking Tartt, he bitches about you all the fucking time.”

    Jamie gaped at her. “That was fucking Roy Kent, wasn’t it?”

    Mei nodded. “What can I get you?”

    “You can get me that dusty old fart.”

    Mei laughed. “Roy, your customer.”

    Or the bakeryAU that I just had to write.

    Summary

    “You ever feel like you’re stuck?” Roy asks.
    “Stuck?”
    He doesn’t imagine they’ll believe him, so he can’t outright say what he thinks is going on. “Living the same day over and over again.”
    Ted hums. “Like in Stranger than Fiction?”
    “More like Groundhog Day.”
    Both Ted and Beard turn to look at him. “Expound,” Beard says.

    Roy worries his one-on-one time with Jamie might be done with soon. The universe finds a way to make him realise what that actually means.

    Summary

    Just as Roy was finally thinking of himself as someone capable of having a deep, meaningful friendship--with Jamie Tartt of all people--he had to mess it up by wanting more. He was going to have to worry there was something wrong with his definition of intimacy soon, if getting close to people always made him want to kiss them.

    Summary

    "You've been going out with a guy for like two months and I didn't know? What's happened to our friendship?" Keeley scoffs, and Roy just shrugs.

    "They've probably been busy." Jamie adds, raising his eyebrows suggestively.

    That prick.

    "Fuck off." Roy grunts, and Jamie and Keeley giggle incessantly.

    Keeley schools herself and slows her laughter. She does her best to keep a straight face again.

    "Last question, I promise. Does he make you happy?"

    ---

    Jamie and Roy have been dating for months, but their relationship is kept a secret (as far as they know). Shenanigans ensue, and then also lots of compliments from Roy about Jamie when they spend the evening together.

    Summary

    Jamie Tartt is a natural with kids.

    Even at his prickiest he still knew how to make little ones feel like they were special. It was one of those things that had made Roy furious.

    Back then he hated anything that made Jamie seem like maybe he wasn’t such a dickhead. And seeing him with little lads and lasses definitely gave Roy feelings he wasn’t prepared to have.

    Roy has to admit that wasn’t the only time he’d seen how comfortable Jamie was with kiddos. And he also has to admit that it always leaves him feeling some kind of way.

    5+1 Times Roy sees just how great Jamie is with children.

    Summary

    Roy sighs again, a put out upon sigh that Jamie can see right through. He steps forward without another word, coming nearly toe to toe with Jamie, taking his hands in his own.

    “What are you doing?” Jamie is barely aware of his mouth forming the words, too focused on the feel of Roy’s hands on his own.

    “I’m warming up your hands because you’re an idiot who forgot his gloves and didn’t fucking say anything.”

    Summary

    It’s got a typical tropical beach scene with the standard “Wish You Were Here” in cursive over the aqua blue of the ocean. When Roy turns it over, he feels like the writing is vaguely familiar, but it isn’t until his eyes drop to the bottom that he sees it’s from Jamie.

    Hey Coach,

    I know you said you didn’t want to tag along with the lads and me, but figured you might still want to see just what you’re missing out on.

    Can’t believe I’m saying this, but I actually miss seeing your grumpy face every day. See ya soon!

    Xx Jamie.

     

    Roy and Jamie fall in love with the help of souvenir shops and the postal service.

    Summary

    When he had the chance to fix his mistake with Keeley, to take it all back, to start over and get it right, it felt like he’d been given a second chance at life. Rectifying this mistake would be a balm over the pain of his other regrets. He never expected it. When he drove Jamie to Keeley’s house after their stupid little fight, he half believed she would choose Jamie, half expected she would choose neither of them.

     

    Six months after Keeley chooses Roy, Roy realizes he'd make some different choices if he could.

    Summary

    - and then they suddenly break into another well known melody, one he hasn’t heard in ages and he wheels around and there’s Roy Kent, the Roy Kent, Roy fucking Kent, in his black shirt and jeans, with that face chiseled out of stone and the vibe of a thunderstorm that could wreck a country, striding onto the pitch, to the dugout and the other coaches.

    Well.

    He’s fucked.

    some things go differently than they did during Season 2.

    Summary

    “Is it okay to like girls?”

    It takes him a second to understand the question because, of course, it’s fucking okay to like girls; he’s liked girls all his life, but then he catches up to the actual question: is it okay for her, a girl, to like girls. This is still a dumb fucking question because Phoebe still spends time with Keeley, who has had girlfriends in Phoebe’s lifetime, and–Roy stares out the window to Jamie’s cubby, he’s not there, but Roy has a perfect view of Tartt 9–of course it’s okay.

    He growls, unable to keep his frustration in check. “Of course it’s fucking okay. Did someone say it isn’t?”

    Summary

    Roy can hear his mother frown over the phone and he drops his head onto his desk with a thunk. “I could’ve sworn you were dating someone new,” she says. “Who’s that girl you’re always talking about…Jamie, right?”

    At that, Roy snaps back up to attention, his heart thundering up against his chest. “Jamie’s a man, Mum.”

    “Oh! Well, alright,” Mum says slowly, her voice carefully thoughtful. And Roy knows, he knows deep down to his bones, that he’s an idiot to hope that will be the end of it. There’s a long enough pause that the feeling begins to swell in his chest, when, “Well, I think that’s wonderful, Roy. I can’t wait to meet your boyfriend at the wedding.”
