    Summary

    Everyone knew that AFC Richmond was notoriously insular. Ted Lasso was very reluctant to sign any new players lest they mess with his carefully constructed changing room cult. It was the Lasso way or the highway. Jan Maas was one of the few exceptions. Coming from a season long loan at Ajax, he was in the prime of his career and ripe to break into England’s top flight. Well that’s what the press was saying anyway.

    The lads on the team were excited to meet their new teammate and friend. What they weren’t ready for was someone so resistant to friendship. It wasn’t that he was antagonistic, he was a delight to have around. Jan never made a fuss, just got on with his job and helped the team. He was polite and brought baked goods on people’s birthdays, even the members of the back room staff which made Ted like him immediately of course. He seemed to be a genuinely nice guy.

    But he was so secretive.

    Summary

    Jamie had tried to make everyone believe he was lying when he'd said he's hurt. And now he was standing in the middle of the room with his shirt rolled up, the most nasty, ugly bruises staining his skin. But what Ted couldn't come to understand was what could’ve happened to the player for him to feel the urge to hide it so fiercely.

    In which Jamie is seriously injured in Two Aces, Ted can't wrap his mind around the idea of someone hurting his own son so badly, and also some relationships develope earlier than they were intended.
