Number Four
By: Face_of_Poe
Info: General Audiences, 2,014 words, Gen Fic
Characters: Roy Kent & Ted Lasso, Roy Kent & Jamie Tartt
Summary: It’s familiar, parking himself a few seats down from a grumpy Roy and staring out over an empty pitch while he waits him out. It’s just different enough to make him cautious, this isn’t coach and captain, gaffer and skipper, they’re peers. They’re friends.

And even so, Ted has zero idea – nil idea – what to offer in this moment.

“You ever just feel fucking… stuck?” Roy finally grinds out.

“Oh boy,” Ted chirps, and settles deeper into the seat to get comfortable. A wild night in Amsterdam flashes through his mind, but even Beard, he suspects, would deem this particular problem beyond the reaches of Kenneth’s special brew.

By: AuntieClimactic
Info: Teen+, 9,954 words
Pairing: Trent Crimm/Ted Lasso
Summary: “Hello? Yes, this is Trent Crimm, The Independent. I’ve got a bit of an emergency and need Coach Lasso’s mobile.” Trent paused, brow furrowing in irritation. “Well, his son is currently standing in my office, in my newspaper building, which is filled with bloodthirsty journos. Could you make an exception for that?"

divorce club
By: wellprince
Info: Teen+, 7,397 words
Pairing: Trent Crimm/Ted Lasso, Trent Crimm/OMC
Summary: “Well,” Trent said, and smiled self-deprecatingly. “He accused me of having an affair.”

“Oh come on now. That’s bull shit.” Now Ted was angry; you could tell because he dragged the word bullshit out into two long pulls, like a mouthful of licorice. “Who the hell would you be having an affair with?”

“Ah.” Trent kept the smile in place. “Well, that’s the part you won’t believe.”

i wanna hold 'em like they do in texas
By: immordelle
Info: Explicit, 6,864 words
Pairing: Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: “Oi,” Jamie says. He snaps his fingers and then looks inordinately pleased when Roy glares at him. “Guess it’s down to you and me, grandad. Honestly, I’m surprised a fossil like you can still keep up.”

He’s leering a bit as he says it, eyes sparkling behind colored frames. Roy doesn’t think highly of players who rely on sunglasses to conceal their tells, figures that if you’re going to sit at the table you ought to be able to look a man in the eyes and lie to his face. But Jamie’s sunglasses are bright fucking orange, not even dark enough to hide his eyes, so it’s clear the only reason he’s wearing them is to be a prick. It makes Roy’s blood boil.

fuck it up
By: jedusaur
Info: Explicit, 1,800 words
Pairing: Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: "So you get off on beating me up, do you?" Jamie's nose is starting to bleed again. He licks it off his lip. "Is that why you've been bullying me all this time? Getting your rocks off?"

He tilts his cheek up, daring Roy to slap it again, and gets what he's asked for. Roy keeps to the same cheek, wanting to see the difference between the two as it pinks up. It's fucking sublime, it's fucking art, like a torn-up rose, like that painting that shredded itself right after being sold, like Roy's fucking knee. Nothing's perfect until it's not anymore.

Blow Jobs and Positive Reinforcement
By: dont_take_me_home
Info: Explicit, 4,292 words
Pairing: Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: If he ever allowed himself, guiltily, to picture something happening with Jamie, it wasn't this -- not Jamie just falling to his knees like he'd been waiting for this for ages, melting into him, trembling with pleasure at the first sign of dominance from Roy, all his fight and pride and all their miserable, difficult history together thrown aside boldly in the service of having a damn good time.

Beware of Darkness
By: Face_of_Poe
Info: Explicit, 4,877 words
Pairing: Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: Sometimes it feels like the universe gave him Jamie. A mirror into his younger idiot self. A chance to learn some hard lessons and be a better person, usually, for them, a chance to pass on some hard-won wisdom and set Jamie up, hopefully, for avoiding some of Roy’s old mistakes.

A budding generational talent to prop up Roy’s first season as manager, the glue that binds the team together, and he’s spoiled for it and taking still more because Christ, how is he supposed to turn away what Jamie’s so eager to offer?

He’s a brute, the worst sort of sleaze in professional sports, but it’s just so fucking easy.

How Hard a Broken Heart Can Swoon
By: pepperlandgirl4
Info: Explicit, 4,540 words
Pairing: Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary:Roy took the last bite of his kebab and pushed the basket away. “Well, what the fuck do we do now?”

“I already told you.”

“What?”

“Rebound fuck.”

“And I already told you…wait, what the fuck, Jamie?”

“What?”

“Are you suggesting my rebound fuck should be with you?”

“I’m not suggesting it shouldn’t be with me.” Jamie licked the tahini sauce off his thumb. “I’m a great lay. It won’t be a one-night stand.”

Info: Explicit, 2,476 words
Pairing: Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: Jamie knows the exact date of the last time he got off thinking about Roy Kent spanking him red. It was the night before he met Roy Kent. He knows this because before they met, he'd been getting off to that fantasy every night he'd spent by himself since age fourteen.

Upside Down
By: MoreThanSlightly
Info: Explicit, 17,674 words
Pairing: Keeley Jones/Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: “You should come with us,” Jamie says, and when Roy stares like he’s been punched in the face so hard it rattled his brain and he forgot how to speak English for a minute, Jamie adds, “To Brazil.”

“No.”

“What? Why?” Jamie bounces on his toes, getting his breath back after the morning run. It’s early enough that the air’s still cool. He sucks it down and feels alive. Buzzing, happy, the way hard training and easy goals and good sex always make him feel. He grins at Roy and demands, “What have you got to do that’s better than going to Brazil with me and Keeley?”

In Better Hands
By: Mare_Adamantis
Info: Explicit, 2,707 words
Pairing: Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt, Keeley Jones/Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: Jamie ran his hand over the cool sheets he lay on, smooth and crisp, expensive. Keeley and Roy's, she'd said they'd bought them together, and there was a knot in Jamie's belly when he remembered it now. He didn't give a flying fuck about sheets, but the idea that he was on them like some mangy stray getting up where he shouldn't be stuck in his head, and his cheeks got hot.

It was hot, wasn't it? It was the same kind of heady pulse and adrenaline rush as when he'd nicked candy bars and earbuds as a kid–he wasn't supposed to be here, but he was, mucking things up, dirty and cheap and loud, having a grand old time until–

Until he got caught.

offside
By: swordguy
Info: Mature, 1,441 words
Pairing: Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: The disappointment was forgotten entirely by 1:47 a.m., when he found himself pressed against the mirrored wall of a lift in the Gran Hotel Melia Torre Melina. It wasn’t his first time kissing a man, or even his second – but it was the first time it was Roy Kent, his manager, and he was watching it over Roy’s shoulder more than feeling it on his lips, repeated all around them in an ascending, dimly lit box that he prayed didn’t have a camera – and it must’ve been the hundredth time since Amsterdam that he felt confused about what something between them meant, what they were to each other.

(with your boots beneath my bed) forever is the sweetest con
By: instantcaramel
Info: Mature, 15,664 words
Pairing: Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: Jamie is truly a fucking enigma. Last night he’d shown up to Roy’s looking like he just needed anyone to be there for him, with no explanation. Today he’s just acting like a fucking twat again, and he’s honestly confusing and messy and Roy doesn’t need it.
Jamie is a 23 year old twat, and Roy is way too fucking old for this.

we'd break the things we like
By: howdyrowdypartner
Info: Explicit, 7,080 words
Pairing: Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: It’s the first drink Jamie’s had in - well, in long enough that he’s not really sure when he last had a drink. It’s some sugary thing, overly sweet, makes his throat dry and sticky with traces of vanilla, the half empty glass sitting damp in his hand. It’s made all the sweeter by the fact that Roy bought it for him, a low command of 'just one' pressed right against Jamie’s ear as Roy slid past him to order up at the bar. It’s hard to know which has him feeling drunker - the alcohol, or the way Roy is staring at him from across the booth, eyes dark and looking straight at Jamie as he takes another sip.

He can blame it on the booze when he speaks next.

“Sometimes,” he says, and he knows Roy hears him, can tell in the way that his eyebrows shift slightly - and isn’t that a thought, that he can read Roy Kent that well. “Sometimes, I think about - you hurting me."

By: liesmyth
Info: Teen+, 4,747 words
Characters: Roy Kent & Jamie Tartt, AFC Richmond Players & Jamie Tartt, James Tartt Sr. & Jamie Tartt, Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt (pre-slash)
Summary: “Did you sprain something saying that?” Jamie is pretty sure he wanked to this exact fantasy, like, ten years ago. He feels heat on his face, but somehow it isn’t a big deal because Roy looks kind of pink around the edges, too. “Roy. Roy, did you practise that? Did you write it down? Roy, mate, did you write a speech about me?”
Or: Jamie’s call-up, and the aftermath.

Heart Trouble
By: MoreThanSlightly
Info: Explicit, 6,844 words
Pairing: Keeley Jones/Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: “I tore his shirt after he hit me,” Jamie says, fucking unbearably helpful. He shrugs and tucks his hands into the bottom of his light blue hoodie. “I’m not sure exactly how it went after that.”

“He pushed you against a wall,” Keeley says.

“Er… no?” Jamie says, puzzled. He twists his hands, stretching the fabric over them. His brows draw together like he’s thinking really hard about whether their stupid, embarrassing, ineffectual fight in the middle of an alley involved any walls.

It didn’t. Roy doesn’t know much but he knows that. What the fuck is Keeley doing?

“That’s where you went wrong, then,” Keeley says, and amends, “One of many places you went wrong, mind. Let’s get it right this time.”

By: silverhelme
Info: Mature, 4800 words
Pairing: Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: “You’re Roy Fucking Kent,” Jamie says at last, waving a helpless hand at Roy’s… everything. Big muscled chest, scratchy-looking beard, chocolatey brown eyes. Like a leading man in the romcoms his mum loves, all tall-dark-and-handsome or whatever.
But he ain’t in a fucking romcom, is he. He’s in Amsterdam, sat across a bistro table from his childhood hero and spilling his heart on their takeaway.
“I mean. How could I not fancy ya?”

It doesn't take him too long to change his mind about that.

Pairing: Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: Rebecca lifts one perfect eyebrow. "Those aren't exactly the objections I was anticipating. You don't want to deny it?"

"That I've gone and bagged Roy Kent?" Jamie stares at her like she's mad. "I want that on the first line of me Wikipedia page."

"I don't fucking care if they think we're fucking married with fucking kids and a fucking shih tzu as long as you tell them it's fucking consensual," Roy grumbles. "Taking advantage, Jesus shitfucking Christ."

"Well." Rebecca sits down at her desk. "I really should set up a meeting with the PR team to talk some sense into you, but frankly I find this far too entertaining to stand in your way. They're waiting in the press room, go on down and tell them whatever you like." She picks up her phone. "Higgins? Bring me popcorn immediately."

Summary: “Yeah,” Jamie drawls in that soft voice, and if Coach Ted’s voice is peanut butter, she thinks Jamie’s must be honey. “It ain’t your fault, Phoebe. And I don’t think your Uncle Roy meant for you to hear what he said ‘bout your dad. But it’s kinda like that, see. No one wants me dad to come to our matches either.”
“But you want him to show up sometimes too?”
Jamie looks down at their clasped hands. “Sometimes. It’s complicated.”

Sowing Time
By: Face_of_Poe
Info: Mature, 43,334 words
Pairing: Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: “I want to be better than him,” Jamie sulked at Ola’s, and that –

That was something Roy could reach for, seize on, anchor himself in the turbulent sea of bullshit that had been figuring out just who that fuck even is Roy Kent if he’s not playing the game.

Deep down, he supposed he’d known since Tottenham last season that the answer spun somewhere in the orbit of Jamie fucking Tartt.

“I could train you,” he offered.

A More Judicious Prick
By: jedusaur
Info: Teen+, 2,343 words
Pairing: Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: Jamie's behaviour changes dramatically after they start doing the one-on-one training sessions. He used to be such a brash little bitch when he and Roy played together, and since his return to Richmond he's been more of a whiny little bitch, but now he's hardly acting like a little bitch at all. Roy doesn't know what to do with it.

"Is it just me, or has Tartt been almost tolerable lately?" he asks one day in the coaches' office. "Fucking weird."

No one says anything for a minute, and Roy has mentally moved on to planning next week's drills when Beard says, "Roy, everything that kid has ever done was to get your attention."

By: AshWrecksEverything
Info: Mature, 26k words
Pairing: Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: They fucked drunk, Roy on half a case of 8% and Jamie on his disgusting flavoured spritzers. Roy couldn’t even remember how it happened, afterwards. Not at first. He remembered snippets, like Jamie taking off his shirt, and unzipping Roy’s trousers with his teeth. He remembered laughing a lot. He remembered being almost dizzy after he’d come, and his vision swirling back into focus to see Jamie raised up on his knees straddling Roy’s hips, stripping his cock fiercely with one hand while he gripped Roy’s wrist so hard he could feel the fucking bones grinding together, and Jamie’s hungry gaze on him the whole time. The way Jamie’s eyelids fluttered, and the pinkness of his open mouth that had just had Roy’s fucking cock in it.

He remembered kissing Jamie, when it was all over. The strange lurch in his belly as he realised they hadn’t done it before, not properly. The way Jamie still tasted of raspberry and vanilla, and kissed like he wanted to devour Roy whole.

They didn’t talk afterwards for a month.

the speed of your slowest traveler
By: jedusaur
Info: Teen+, 2825 words
Pairing: Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: "Are we..." Jamie starts, and then discovers that he doesn't actually have words for the question. Flirting? If that's what this is, they're beyond that. Dating? They definitely aren't, except for how it feels like they kind of are. Ever going to fuck? He can't say that.

"Oh," says Roy, before he can make a decision. "Yes."

Jamie wrinkles up his forehead. If he's that calm, he must not understand what Jamie is trying to ask. "Romantic," he decides. "Are things between us romantic?"

"Yes," Roy repeats.

By: emelinelou
Info: Not Rated, Chooses Not to Use Archive Warnings, 14,871 Words
Characters: Jamie Tartt, Roy Kent, Ted Lasso, James Tartt Sr., Leslie Higgins
Summary: “It’ll take two seconds,” Higgins says. “I like to keep up to date with all the players, you know. I just thought, well, you moved recently. And your emergency contact.”

He pauses here, and Jamie raises an eyebrow. His emergency contact? He’d probably filled out some joke response last time, hadn’t he. Fucking Queen of England, Boris Johnson’s wife, something good.

“Oi, let’s see it then,” and Higgins passes over the paper like it’s a live bomb, and Jamie scans down to where he sees his own handwriting sitting over a few dotted lines, and, well. It sure ain’t the Queen.

or: Jamie goes through a series of unfortunate events, changes his emergency contact a few times, and considers the possibility that maybe, actually, letting other people help isn’t all bad after all.

Summary: Jamie bursts into the changing room and for a second Roy thinks it's Dani, he comes in with so much enthusiasm. "Everyone high-five me! Right now!" He runs a tight circle around the room, slapping every hand offered and all but skipping. When Jamie has finally high-fived everyone at least twice, he bounds into the center of the room, jumps on the bench, and yanks open his jacket to present a much-too-small pastel blue t-shirt, still adorned with price tags, and declaring in big sparkly letters that its wearer is a "Future Big Brother".
     "My mummy's pregnant!" he all but screams, before throwing his head back and crowing a loud, "Woo!"

By: ReinventAndBelieve
Info: Teen+, 6,729 words
Characters: Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt
Summary: The absolute worst person Roy can imagine meeting the yoga mums is Jamie Tartt. Roy spent far too many hours drinking rosé and glaring daggers as Jamie fucked his way through the cast of Lust Conquers All to explain to them all now that actually, Jamie’s been his coworker for the past three years and actually, they spend most of their days together and actually, Roy doesn’t completely hate the little prick.
     Not to mention, then Jamie would inevitably pick up on how many hours Roy spent drinking rosé and glaring daggers as Jamie fucked his way through the cast of Lust Conquers All. And that sounds fucking exhausting.
-
     Or, five times Roy successfully keeps Jamie from meeting the yoga mums, and one time he fails.

By: booksplease
Info: Trent/Ted, 6.3k Words, Teen+
Summary: Trent doesn’t realize as he’s writing the article. He writes and deletes, writes and deletes, and deletes, and deletes, and writes, and doesn’t ask himself why this article is any harder than the hundreds (thousands) he’s written over a long and hard-fought career. He swears at himself plenty when he picks up the phone and texts Coach Ted Lasso (America) and divulges his source — Trent does respect him, after all, and the poor man doesn’t need to be wondering which of his inner circle betrayed him — but he doesn’t realize.

Wordcount: 5,753
Pairing: Trent Crimm/Ted Lasso
Rating: Teen+
Summary: Trent smiles. “Oh yes. Second row, left side is ideal. Why do you think you called on me first so often?”
    Ted swallows. He thinks of seeing Trent in that first press conference, the streak of silver in his hair, the smile that seemed to always be tugging on one side of his mouth. He thinks about the way it always felt like he was starting something when he called on Trent, like they were entering their own little field of play, a game all their own.
    “Gotta be honest, Trent. I don’t think it was the chair.”
    Or: Ted wants to know what Trent got up to in Amsterdam, but all the people flirting with Trent keep getting in the way of his questions...

Offside Offence
By: straydog733
Wordcount: 3,255
Pairing: Trent Crimm/Roy Kent
Rating: Teen+
Summary: It’s not like Cartrick has a lot of fucking choice, in the empty-as-fuck press room, but it still annoys Roy that he starts off with Crimm. There’s no one up here but Cartrick, the Welsh rookie, and him, so of course he’s going to have to answer most of the inane fucking questions and he hates setting the tone with Crimm. It puts a smarmy prick smear over everything that comes after it.
    (Roy absolutely isn’t thinking about how it’s been seven months since the last time they fucked. They’ve gone longer than that plenty of times over the last fucking decade, they’ve gone years without touching each other before. So there’s nothing different this time.)
    (It absolutely doesn’t matter that the last time was a week before Crimm’s fucking daughter was born.)

Summary: Newcomer Roy Kent is an overhyped, so-called prodigy whose unbridled rage and mediocre talent rendered his Premier League debut a profound disappointment.
It had been a lie. Almost twenty years since and Trent still remembers. Roy Kent had indeed been full of unbridled rage, but even to Trent’s young, cocky, hyper-critical eye, there was no way he could fairly be called mediocre. Not then. Not ever.

“Trent,” says Ted.
“Is this a date?” says Trent stupidly.
“Trent Crimm, bringing that heat.” Ted still hasn’t withdrawn his hand.
