Summary
Ilya ignored the request from the NHL twice. The first time they asked through his agent, the second time the director of marketing called his personal number directly. He never got along with the league as a player, and he certainly didn't need to make them happy now.
The next attempt to reach him was harder to ignore. A phone call from an unknown number. A voicemail that made his blood run cold.
"Hi Ilya. This is Rose Landry. We've never met, but Shane speaks so highly of you. I think the NHL has been trying to get in touch. Shane said you probably wouldn't talk to them. But...think about it, ok? I know it would mean a lot to him."
The final request crumbled his resolve. The caller ID blinked "Jane," and Ilya stared at it.

Canon divergence, Shane and Ilya are estranged for a decade. Shane finally reaches out to Ilya when he retires. -

Summary
They met at thirteen in a locker room that smelled like sweat and cheap detergent.
Shane thought he'd forget the loud Russian boy with the crooked smile.
He didn't.
Years later, they're drafted to the same team. Teammates. Strangers.
Except Shane still knows exactly where Ilya is on the ice without looking.
Some habits never die.

Summary
Shane is stooped over to strap on his shin guards when his phone buzzes once in Hayden’s hand.
He doesn’t mean to tap the notification.
And oh god, does he wish he could un-tap the fucking notification.
Because why the fuck has Lily, Shane’s mysterious Boston hook-up of several years (no matter how fervently he denies it), sent him a picture of a fucking sonogram.
Black and white, blurry, and undeniably baby-shaped.

Ilya makes a joke, Hayden breaks Shane’s phone, and a comedy of errors ensues.

Summary
They then ask Shane to move his fingers and lift his arms. He does both no problem and the medics tell him good job. The medic takes off Shane’s skates. They ask him to wiggle his toes.
Nothing happens.
A play on a line from Heated Rivalry following Shane's injury “Oh god what if I’m not ok? What if I never walk again." A story of loss, growth, and love.
(Disclaimer: This is my first fic, I'm not a doctor, I don't speak Russian, and I don't know anything about hockey. Don't think too hard.)
