#Sam Obisanya

(The one with 😬 was an accident!)

“Is the water warm enough?” Sam asked, eying his friend wearily.

Jamie nodded as the chattering of his teeth slowly decreased.

“And your knee feels okay like this? I could put a towel under it in the bath or I could hold it up or-”

Jamie encircled Sam’s wrist with a still too cold and now wet hand, stilling his excited energy and nodded again.Sam briefly wondered if Jamie was too tired, too upset, too overstimulated to speak but then he said, “Yeah, yeah it’s good. Thanks, mate, I can manage if you want–”

“I want to help,” Sam said, cutting him off, maybe too quickly. He was prepared for this, prepared to personally fight Jamie’s demons to allow the kindness of a friend, but suddenly he was feeling his position as tenuous. “Unless you don’t want me to.”

Sam was well aware Jamie had issues accepting help for things he had been conditioned against lest he look soft to his abusive father. Everyday he was greeted with something new this world had conditioned men to view as other, and Sam was never more grateful for the love and support his father and his family had raised him with, never instilling any of the toxic masculinity traits he and his teammates so often tried not to conform to. Jamie had not been lucky enough to have a father like Ola, and so while Sam wanted to do everything he could to help his friend, he also did not want to force him into doing something he would feel uncomfortable with and make the situation worse when he was injured.

“No, this is nice,” Jamie said, releasing his wrist and giving Sam a small smile. “Thank you.”

Relief and optimism flooded through the length of Sam’s body as he returned the smile.

This happened in Richmond! They say in the caption that it happens once a month in the summer. So:

I didn't include Ted because he doesn't have a car but to me, if he did, he would total at least three like this during his stay.

No. Jamie, I think that you might be so sure that you're one in a million, that sometimes you forget that out there, you're just one of eleven. And if you just figure out some way to turn that "me" into "us"...

And that was the last time anybody on the team attempted polite small talk with Beard.

I’ve been working on this since eurovision and got it done just in time for the s3 finale 🥲 speaking of eurovision, if you look really really closely at the interval show you might just be able peep Beard in the background…

no because jamie wearing sam’s number while playing for england’s national team is so important like he’s come so far from wanting his name on his kit to be bigger to wearing his teammates number instead of his own and also sam breaking out into the biggest grin when he realized jamie was wearing his number was so goddamn cute i cannot see through my tears
