Fics like two steps from glory

In the midst of the fierce, desperate fight for the World Cup, two men rise to the occasion: a weary captain carrying all of England’s expectations on his shoulders, and a beautiful, bright-eyed midfielder with more talent than anyone had ever imagined. “I just—I just want to be—” Jude choked on his words, and Harry felt the tenderness he had always harboured for the boy grow. He wore his heart out on his sleeve, Jude did. “—Loved.” “I know, my boy, I know.”
