Summary
“This is just crazy,” J.J. said. “Give me that, Pike, I’ve got one he absolutely can’t pass.”
“Oh, so you’re saying it’s my fault?” Hayden asked.
“Skill issue.” J.J. paused. “Ok. Pedro Pascal.” His voice was smug.
A long silence stretched while Shane Hollander looked at the camera, seemingly deciding whether it was worth it to lie.
“No!” J.J. said, horrified.
“Pass… I—What?”
“The entire internet wants to fuck this man!”
“Okay?!” Shane Hollander said, throwing his arms out. “I don’t know what to tell you!”
“Jesus Christ, okay.” Hayden shuffled behind the camera. “Ilya Rozanov.”
A flush bloomed across Shane Hollander’s freckled face, intensifying so fast it looked like his face was on fire.
“Uhm.” He pressed his lips together before his shoulders dropped in resignation. “Smash.”
Or: A clip of Shane Hollander playing smash or pass goes viral and Ilya wants to eat him alive.

Summary
He doesn't mean for it to be a secret.
Or, well. That's his story, at least. It sounds convincing in his head. He practices the words in the mirror, over and over again, at first with a flat affect and then growing into a wearied sort of pleading, an uncomfortable honesty soaking into the lines of his face as he imagines the expressions of his teammates.
Fuck.
He doesn't know if he can do this.
But he knows—he knows—it's a matter of time.
OR: Shane has a secret. It's a really, really big one.

Summary
Ilya let out a quiet laugh, shaking his head. “I want to be perfect for you, Shane. To make up for all the time we lost.”
“I don’t want perfect,” Shane said quietly, stroking Ilya’s cheek. “I want something real. Something that we fight to make work, because we want it so much. Because being together is so much fucking better than being without each other.”
***
Ten years ago, Shane and Ilya loved each other in secret and let each other go anyway.
Now Shane, captain of the Ottawa Centaurs, is a single dad to four-year-old Ollie, and good at pretending he doesn’t think about the man he lost when they were younger and terrified of the fallout of being caught. Then one chance meeting turns into drinks, lingering looks, old feelings, and suddenly Ilya Rozanov is everywhere again.
Some things, it turns out, never really leave you.
As Shane and Ilya fall back into each other’s lives - and into something softer, steadier, and openly theirs this time — they realise maybe they’re finally ready for the life they used to dream about.
Or: two hockey players who were each other’s first love reconnect ten years later and slowly build the family they always wanted.

“Daddy, who is Lily?”
“I don’t know sweetie. Do you mean your friend from school?”
“No Daddy, I thought it was her, but when I texted her, I got a really weird reply.”
Shane knew giving a phone to an eight year old might not have been his best parental move, but all the kids in her class had one, he’d felt guilty. Besides, it was only his old phone. It couldn’t do much more than text.
Wait… It was Shane’s old phone. And Judith was texting someone named Lily.
“Oh no.”-
After Shane Hollander's career ending injury in 2014, he lives a quiet life at his cottage with his two daugthers. His life is turned upside down when his youngest accidentally texts Ilya Rozanov, Shane's former lover and secret crush. Can Shane find a place for Ilya in his new life?

YOUNG: This makes us sound like a YouTube dude-bro house.
LEVIN: The hottest men in the league.
JONES: We all know it’s Shane. You know it’s Shane based on the fact you have a [BEEP]in’ poster of him on your door.
LAPOINTE: The Ottawa Foals is the name of the young core on the Ottawa Centaurs. It is mostly rookie players still on Entry Level Contracts but I am on my extension contract with the Cens. So I’m not a rookie anymore.

Summary
Shane knew the right answer. He knew the media-approved answer. He should have said the media-approved answer. He almost did. Hell, he thought he was saying it until he heard the words coming out of his own fucking mouth.
“I hate pride night. It’s just a distraction and we just don’t need it.”
Now, Shane sat in his stuffy, uncomfortable suit in front of dozens of cameras and as many reporters, about to tell the world that he wasn’t homophobic, he promised.
He promised.

Summary
“So we’re keeping the baby?” He asked, trying to keep his voice steady even as tears welled in his eyes.
“Well,” her voice broke, “yes. If you want it too. I know the timing is terrible but with everything…we might not be able to again.” He walked to her, dropped to his knees burying his face in her soft, flat stomach and kissing her warm skin.
“Of course I want it. I want everything with you.”
In a universe in which Shane is conceived while his parents are in college much stays the same, but much changes too:
David Hollander is a professional level goalie, but gives up that dream to raise Shane, instead becoming the Centaurs’ emergency backup goalie.
Shane is diagnosed with autism, trusts Ilya with his diagnosis, and they get together sooner.
OR
One fateful night, David Hollander is called to take the ice and discovers his son’s secret relationship.

"Would you still want me if I was a woman?" Ilya gasps.
Shane freezes, fists still clutching the lapels of Ilya's jacket, thigh wedged between Ilya's, pupils blown and nostrils flaring. "Are- are you a woman?"

But Ilya Rozanov is beginning to wonder if maybe, just maybe, there is a lot more about gender that needs to be explored.

Summary
“Ilya, what the fuck?” Shane exclaimed, his wide eyes locked onto the kitten now wriggling in Ilya’s grip. “Tell me that’s not what you’re talking about.”
“Surprise,” Ilya smiled, holding the kitten up in front of him one hand and setting his tote bag down with the other.
“That’s a kitten,” Shane said.
“Da, excellent observation, moya lyubov.” Ilya smiled as that familiar flush made its home on Shane’s face.
—
Or the one where Shane Hollander struggles with the secrecy and time apart and Ilya Rozanov thinks he knows exactly what he needs (and he’s right, as always).
