Summary
Having narrowly escaped relegation, AFC Richmond dreams of rising to the very top, Jamie and Roy struggle to navigate their new secret relationship, and Jamie’s dad threatens to destroy their fragile happiness. Jamie has to learn the hard way that he’s not alone anymore, and needs to find the strength and courage to ask for help.
~*~
“He’s my dad,” Jamie says weakly, trying to explain what he knows is irrational behavior. He knows he doesn’t owe his dad anything, not his time or money or respect. “It’s easier this way.”
Roy slowly wraps his arms around Jamie from behind, pulling him back against the warmth of his chest. Jamie rests limply there, letting Roy take some of his weight. “I don’t fucking understand, Jamie.”
Jamie nods miserably. “I know. But he’ll leave me alone for a while now.”
Roy sighs heavily, his breath warming the side of Jamie’s neck. “What would he have done, if I wasn’t here?” he asks, clearly choosing his words carefully.
Jamie shrugs again. He wraps his hands around Roy’s arms, keeping him there. Roy leans his head against Jamie’s, holding him tight.

Summary
When Jamies walks in to the locker room, head down, shoulders stiff, arms tightly by his sides; Sam immediately clocks something might be up. It could be nothing. A bad mood. Something as trivial as a bad hair day knowing Jamie. But something.
Two weeks ago Sam wouldn’t have thought much of it at all. Two weeks ago Sam was still undecided on Jamie Tartt. He liked him well enough and he knew Jamie was making a real effort with Richmond and the boys. They were friendly and played well as a team, but he was getting to know a person all over again. That takes time.
Then Wembley happened.

Two weeks after the Wembley locker room incident Jamie comes to training, looking not so hot. Everyone has to take it into their own hands to show Jamie that he is cared for. Roy will do it, even if he has to kidnap the muppet and force him to rest.
Hurt/comfort Jamie, caretaker Roy Kent.
