Summary
There’s no excuse when he shows up at Coach Lasso’s. No excuse when he knocks on the door, just the words Coach said to him months ago, filtering through the muck in his head. My door’s always open, Jamie.
Which ain’t true, is it, ‘cause Jamie’s standing on his doorstep and he’s knocked twice now, and the door’s still closed. And he starts to wonder, hey, maybe Coach was just saying that, yeah, to make him feel better. Maybe Coach says that to everyone, just doesn’t mean it. Maybe this is another one of those things that’s normal, but that Jamie doesn’t get. Too slow on the uptake, too dumb to get it without an explanation.
But then suddenly the door is open, and it’s replaced by Coach Lasso’s smiling face.
Or
Jamie Tartt and figuring himself out.

Summary
Roy Kent is having an absolutely miserable start to his summer. For one thing, he's lying in a hospital bed, having just been told that his knee is done for and his career is over and his life is essentially fucked.
Far worse than that, he keeps getting text messages from Jamie fucking Tartt.

Summary
Jamie has never been particularly good at science, but he doesn’t think time loops are supposed to be normal, or, like, even possible. He wonders, vaguely, whether he’s maybe lost his head. Too many hits, too many rough tackles, something like that. Maybe he’s lost his shit, and none of this is really happening.
That might actually be the better option.

Summary
That night at the Crown & Anchor was one for the history books. Mae kept the drinks endlessly flowing, and Roy had been unabashedly giddy and not afraid of anyone knowing it, especially Jamie. He hung off of him most of the night, except for when he’d stood on a barstool to do a slightly slurred, off-balance toast about how bloody proud he was of all of them, almost as gooey as a speech from Ted but with a hell of a lot more swearing. He’d led a round of shots with Beard. He’d chanted Richmond ‘Til We Die louder than any of the rest of them. He’d called an uber at the end of the night, and told Jamie he was coming with him.
Of course Jamie had gone.
Years after Ted’s departure, Jamie is nominated for a major award. It brings to the surface feelings he’s longed since buried, and a night from the past he hasn’t been able to forget.

Summary
According to the article, the seven-year-itch could describe any long-term relationship that had reached a point of no return; a series of small hurdles, or one big moment of reckoning, and you either had to accept your relationship for everything that it was, make the necessary changes, or leave it altogether.
She hadn’t read it closely, but she probably should have. Maybe then she’d remember what exactly the article said to do about it, when your boyfriend went and started having his breakdown-reckoning-itch without you. Especially when your other boyfriend wasn’t even bloody there to help you talk him down from his mountain.
Or, three years into their relationship, Roy, Jamie and Keeley reach a crossroads.
