Summary
It all started in stupid Milan.
It was meant to be the tournament to finally put him on the map, the Next-Gen Finals. Alex didn’t believe in fate or anything, but it had all gone his way somehow.
Or
Alex is pretty sure Jannik Sinner exists only to haunt him.

Summary
“I think about you, when you win. How you talk. People like it.”
Carlos lets out a breath, slow. Not quite annoyed. Not yet. But the signs are there, and his voice sharpens just a touch.
“Jannik, I’m really not sure what you want to say.”
Or: After the final, Jannik shows up. Carlos opens the door.
Set between Wimbledon and Cincinnati. -

Summary
It’s always been like this between them. Opposites in every way. Carlos, all instinct and raw energy, making the impossible look effortless. Jannik, methodical, precise, his game built on discipline and careful construction. For years, Jannik had envied him—how he played with a kind of freedom Jannik could never quite grasp
Or
After 15 years of tennis careers, Jannik and Carlos meet by chance and talk.

Summary
Five percent. Nothing, really. But when you’re teetotal, when two fingers of anything knock you loose, five percent feels like free fall. Like forgetting—until it isn’t. Until thoughts shove back in. Loud. Too loud.
"Do you like it?" Jack’s voice is close. Too close.
Or Jack and Jannik get drunk in London.

Summary
“I speak with everyone. I am friendly with all players.” He answers in kind.
Novak’s mouth turns down, something unreadable pulling at the corner. Disappointment?
“Not everyone is the same, though. Right?” A rhetorical question—he doesn’t leave Jannik space to answer before continuing. “Some people matter more.”
Or
Jannik and Novak have a chat.

Summary
The first person who calls him after the news breaks isn't Mark or Matteo or Jack or—don't think about him—anybody else he might have suspected of harboring feelings of friendship and protectiveness towards him still.
The first call that lights up his phone when he drops his bags in his dark, silent living room—is Anna.
Jannik finds his way back, with a little help from the people who love him.

Summary
Carlos knows he isn’t subtle. His obvious adoration is laid out on his face as he gazes into Jannik’s face, or the way his touch lingers when they hug across the net, or when he cannot stop himself from gushing about the Italian at every opportunity he gets. He’s reconciled himself to this feeling within himself.
Carlos is used to the longing. The jealousy is new.

Summary
"Are you staying tomorrow?" Jannik asks as fireworks go off overhead, the stadium illuminated red and violet and gold. The adrenaline of the final is starting to fade, but enough remains for him to say: "If you are—tomorrow, we're going to the coast. If you want to go with us?"
Carlos leans closer, brow wrinkling slightly as he tries to hear over the noise. "Tomorrow? Go where?"
"There's a beach, a little north of here. It's very beautiful. They have jet skiing." Ba-boom. Brilliant fiery flowers spiral across the night sky. The explosions of smaller fireworks syncopate with the suddenly rapid beating of Jannik's own heart. "If you're still here tomorrow, do you want to go? With us?"
Colors in the sky reflect in the smiling eyes looking up at him. "Yeah, of course." Carlos sounds as happy as if he were the one holding the winner's trophy. "Let's go!"
Jannik, Carlos, and a life-changing day in 2022.

Summary
Jannik is sitting across him, with scrumptious food served on their table. Well, this is definitely not how Carlos expects his post-QF-loss-evening will end. On non-post-defeat evenings, he'd never thought that Jannik would ask him to a dinner. They're close, good pals, but dinner just feels odd.
Too intimate. Like a date. Not that Carlos does not want it.
