    Summary

    The sign above the door reads ‘Kent Auto Repairs’ in a slanting hand painted font, the red letters faded from time. Right below, in a smaller print, sits the words ‘Est. 1964’. The sign, like the shop itself, was inherited from Roy’s grandfather - sitting in the quaint backstreets of Richmond.

     

    -

    When a pretty boy and his fancy car turn up to the garage, Roy’s expecting to begrudgingly fix it up and send him on his way. Except Jamie keeps coming back with new problems and new cars, determined to drive Roy crazy.

    Summary

    "Hello," Roy says, giving the kid a little wave, unsure of what else to do with himself.

    The kid stares, wide-eyed.

    "You're Roy Kent."

    Roy nods.

    "I am."

    The kid stares at him a moment longer... and promptly starts crying.

    "Oh, fuck..." Roy breathes, before his common sense can catch up to the fact that he shouldn't be swearing in front of an eight year-old. "Jesus Christ. Are you okay?"

    Summary

    Patrick Brewer had never set foot in a craft store before. He’d had absolutely no reason to. His mother was into crafts but he wasn’t an artsy person—he didn’t paint… or crochet or… do whatever it was people did with felt. Visual art had never been his thing. Other than music, a hobby he’d effectively dropped when he started university three years ago, Patrick had no creative outlet. He needed a creative outlet.

    That’s what his therapist said anyway.

    “Why don’t you take an art class?” She’d suggested during their second meeting.

    “An art class?” he asked.

    -

    Or: Patrick and David are both college students and they meet when Patrick decides to take an art class.

    Summary

    It wasn’t supposed to go this way.

    He doesn’t realise he’s said it out loud until Roy says, too loud: “What wasn’t supposed to go this way?”

    Jamie just stares at him, mouth opening and closing, and this is - there’s so much he could say. So much he could tell the great Roy Kent about the way things were supposed to be - the way they should have been friends, the things he wanted when he was a kid—

    Roy’s mouth - Roy’s mouth is so close to his.

    “Nothing,” he says, voice suddenly flat - and turns, and runs away.
