    Summary

    One particular comment had caught his attention.

    @ballista : three sure things in life: death, taxes and Sinner absolutely crushing Carlos in his articles lol!!!!!!

    Carlos’ curiosity had taken over, and he had found the article again, just to check the author.

    Jannik Sinner.

    So that was the stranger’s name, then.

    His thumb had flown over the name, before clicking on it.

    According to his profile, Jannik wasn’t only a tennis journalist. He had many contributions for the Formula 1 section, and also a few for the downhill skiing one. Most articles he had written, though, were about tennis, seemingly regularly for a few years. Carlos had taken a quick look over them, and had realized a few of those articles were about him- or, at least, talking about him. He had clicked on one of them, reading it quickly, before realizing they had been written with the same tone: always laudatory of his opponents, always harsh on him.

     

    OR. Carlos meets a red-haired stranger in an elevator. Little does he know it's going to change his life forever.

    Summary

    Carlos opened the hotel room door, thinking he is in his own room, just to see Simone standing there, demanding to see Jannik.

    It goes downhill from there.

    Summary

    On December 24th, the eve of both Christmas and the first ever “A Very Tennis Christmas in Vienna” exhibition, Jannik is reminded of three truths about himself:

    One, he’s a planner.
    Two, he’s not good with words.
    Three, he is a stupid, stupid man.

    ****
    Or: Jannik decides to do something about his growing feelings for Carlos.

    Summary

    Jannik has a fairly simple life, working shifts at his father's restaurant, running orders and clearing tables. But when an unusually attractive man comes in to eat, suddenly everything's not so simple anymore. And what's this about him being the world number one?

    Or, Jannik works as a waiter at his father's restaurant and Carlos is immediately in love (so is Jannik)

    Summary

    A simple, familiar, quotidian gesture can turn your world upside down in only an instant. Upon further reflection, they hold so much more meaning, so much more affection when done for the right person. Through these actions that represent such a strong sentiment, Jannik and Carlos realize they love each other (while it is obvious to everyone else).

    or

    3 times Carlos thinks the words “I love you.”
    3 times Jannik thinks the words “I love you.”

    And the one time they actually say it.
