Summary
"You are very pretty you know. I like your...what are these called?" He reached out to touch Shane's face, and Shane flinched, lurching backwards in surprise. Only Rozanov's hand on his wrist stopped him from crashing into the people behind him. Rozanov's hand was warm on Shane's cheek, fingers softly tracing the lines of his cheekbones. Shane swallowed, the motion difficult - all the saliva had seemingly vacated his mouth. He felt himself blushing furiously.
Barely able to stammer out an answer, he responded, "Do you mean...you mean my freckles?"
"Ah yes, freckles. Very pretty. They look like stars."
Shane gets signed to the Boston Bears. Everything's great, except for one of his teammates - an annoying, stuck-up Russian man with a huge ego and habit for irritating the hell out of Shane. Can Shane learn to get along with Rozanov, and navigate the confusing and complicated emotions that swirl up whenever he is in his presence?
(also Hayden's there because it wouldn't feel right without him)
((Idk anything about hockey so ignore the fact that half of this is just not how hockey works at all lol. Just go with it))Series

Summary
In theory, Shane and Ilya have everything - they are living together, playing for the same team, have wonderful friends and a great support system...things should be perfect, right?
However, reality is rarely that simple.
There is still Russia to contend with, the challenges of navigating being in a relationship while still in the closet, the great beast that is the overly homophobic NHL. Can the pair manage to build a life together when the whole world seems against them?
Sequel to ...and they were teammates
