Summary
The first time that Jamie watches Phoebe, it’s because Roy is desperate. But Jamie is infuriatingly good at it – like he is at most things – so it becomes a regular occurrence, much to the delight of both Phoebe and Jamie (and Roy, not that he’d admit it).

Summary
Roy, in that soft little part of him that cares about his best fucking friend quite a lot, wants nothing more than to comfort him, tell him he'll be alright.
"Tartt," he snaps. It turns out comforting is a difficult note for Roy Kent to hit. "Stay the fuck awake if it fucking kills you. No fucking passing out on the pitch."
"M'not... not gonna...," Jamie slurs, his hand resting limply across his face now. He gags, like he's holding back an upsurge of vomit, then swallows thickly. "Just... fuckin' dizzy."

Summary
After the locker room disaster in Manchester, Roy drives Jamie home. The chaos they find when they arrive at the house swiftly proves it is not a safe place to spend the night, forcing a change of plans and a reroute to Roy’s own home.
The following day Jamie experiences, in this order:
The most bewildering breakfast of his life, a penalty kick clinic with a seven-year-old, and an overwhelming display from his teammates that brings him face to face with the fact that not only has he been accepted back in Richmond it’s also possible he might be, in a way he can’t remotely process or understand, loved here.

Summary
“Babe, what’s going on?” she asked softly, rubbing her thumbs over his cheeks soothingly.
“Nothin’,” he tried again, but his voice cracked right in the middle of the word.
“Why are you so upset?” she asked again. “You know we meant it as a jo—”
“Well, it wasn’t fucking funny,” he exclaimed, pulling away from her. “It’s not—I’m not a fucking prostitute, I can’t—you can’t make me shag someone just ‘cause they’ve paid money to spend an evening fucking chatting at me—Rebecca can—she can send me fucking back to fucking City, I won’t—I won’t do it—I’m not—”
—A rewrite of season one, where Keeley (and Roy, eventually) find out about Amsterdam much earlier. OT3 endgame, plenty of RoyJamie freak4freak, but they're burning slow, babes, I'm warning you.
