    Summary

    The bubble had to burst. Every fucking bubble in his whole fucking life has burst at one point or another.

    He remembers the game during his last season at Chelsea when the bubble burst and reality set in — he was slow; he was old; his career was going to come to an end sooner rather than later.

    He remembers Keeley freaking out on the couch when the bubble burst and reality set in — he was smothering her; he was too much; they weren’t as “perfect and compatible” as he thought.

    So, yeah. He knows it will burst. He know this thing (cause there is no way in hell he’s putting an actual label to it) that’s started to be the fucking bright spot of his life will have to burst at some point.

    He doesn’t expect it to burst on a random Tuesday evening in early July, with Jamie laying next to him -- sprawled out, naked, and with that post-orgasm blissed-out gaze that Roy’s become all to fucking fond of.

    ***
    While in the midst of figuring out their relationship, Roy and Jamie must handle the sudden passing of Roy's sister.

    Summary

    At some point in Jamie’s life, he is going to have to admit that he doesn’t know what the word traumatizing means. Sure, he could look it up in a dictionary or whatever, but a dry definition from some dead prick isn’t going to explain where the boundary lies between something normal that just felt bad and something that traumatized him, something that shouldn’t have happened at all—if the world was nice and fair.

    Really, he’d prefer not to have to figure it out. He’d prefer to just focus on footie and his team and the weird, intense, wonderful thing that might be happening with Roy, and he’d be allowed to have that—if the world was nice and fair.
