An Early Christmas

by joan_waterhouse

It had been so easy to not do anything about his feelings for Jimmy. Jimmy had always been there and would always be a part of his life in some capacity. But now Alastair couldn’t shake the thought this might be their last Ashes tour together and that it might all just slip away if he didn’t act soon.

remember this feeling

by bananas

This was it. This was the highlight of Joe’s life. He felt giddy and drunk and everything good that you feel when you're just past that level of tipsy and nearing the piss drunk stage. He snaked an arm around Jos's waist who smiled at him, pulling him closer.  -21st century London. Jos and Joe are together and in love.

Whiskey Wickets

by jiminyneesham

The usual composure at the crease gone in favour of giggles and unsteady feet. He makes the motion of tapping the ‘bat’ on the ground, the way he does before he cuts an unsuspecting bowler for 4.

Eyes Wide Shut

by tiredgayloser

"Mate," Ben says, looking way too victorious for what the situation calls for. "You're fucking with me." Joe groans into his hands. "I'm not!" "You've got a thing for Jos," Ben continues anyway, and Joe kind of wants to punch him in his insufferable, handsome face. "Oh my god, you have such a thing for Jos." OR: Joe Root may have an eye for knowing how his mates are feeling, but that does not guarantee that he's any good at noticing his own.[Across England, 2013.]
