    Summary

    "If this is it," Shane whispered, so quietly only Ilya could hear, "you won't face a single second of it alone."

    Ilya closed his eyes. His fingers tightened around Shane's hand with everything he had left.

    He saw the fear in Ilya’s eyes.

    Then he saw nothing.

    *******

    It was supposed to be an ordinary flight. Instead, it becomes the worst day of their lives.

    They were never meant to be on the same plane. Then the unthinkable happens. It goes down.

    As terrified passengers flee the wreckage, Shane refuses to abandon the man he loves, even as rescuers and survivors alike order him to get out. Trapped beneath twisted metal, Ilya is running out of time. And while they wait for help, the secret they've spent years protecting slips into the hands of strangers with phones.

    In an instant, the whole world is watching. Hockey can burn. The headlines can wait.

    Shane Hollander has exactly one job: keep Ilya alive.

    Because if they survive this, he'll have to protect more than Ilya's life. He'll have to protect everything they've built together against impossible odds.

    Summary

    «A safe space, somewhere he could breathe. I know things didn’t end well between the two of you - but did they actually end at all? I’m not supposed to tell you this - I know I’m not - but he asked me to, so… I’m just trying so hard to be a good friend: when they asked him what he’d miss the most, he said ginger ale. Hollander - Shane, I have never seen my man Roz drink a ginger ale.»

    The room spins around him at full speed and Shane needs to hold on to the kitchen counter not to fall flat on his face.

    “That better just be ginger ale, rook.”
    “There’s ginger ale in the fridge.”
    “Ginger ale cold enough?”

    Fuck, Rozanov.

    or: Shane comes out to Ilya in Tampa, but terrified of what loving him would mean, Ilya walks away.
    After Grigori Rozanov’s death, the loneliness Ilya has carried his whole life becomes too heavy to survive alone. Months later, he attempts suicide.
    While hiding away at his cottage in Québec, Shane receives a phone call from Hayden Pike.
    This story begins eight minutes later.

    Summary

    Shane and Ilya haven’t spoken to each other since they broke up over a misunderstanding at the 2017 All-Stars game. Ilya was traded from Boston to LA and they both tried to move on. But, in December of 2019, when Ilya ends up on injury reserve, he decides to make an unannounced trip to Montreal. He could have never foreseen the global pandemic just around the corner of that decision, and as the world crumbles around them, they find themselves isolated at the cottage for the longest offseason of their lives.

    OR

    What happens when the systems you have carefully built to keep yourself hidden and emotionally regulated are no longer available to you? What happens when the identity you built your life around becomes the thing you must let go of? What happens when isolation exposes the truth about yourself and everyone around you and there’s nowhere else to hide? What does Shane do then? What does Ilya do then? What ripples does that create beyond their relationship? What shape does their life become when honesty is no longer optional?
