    Summary

    Rough palms slip past his coat, under his sweatshirt, to his skin. “So it’s not serious then? Your upper body injury.”

    Shane almost laughs. “I don’t know.” He almost cries.

    A hand slides up towards his chest. “Hollander—”

    “Stop.”

    He holds on to Rozanov’s wrists even as they pull away.

    “Did I hurt you?”

    “No,” but the cardiac monitor would’ve been palpable under his skin.

    In September 2010, Shane suffers a cardiac event during training camp before he ever plays a single game with Montreal. Medically retired, he goes to college, returns to hockey through coaching, and, even without the heat of rivalry, finds his way to Ilya, too.

    Summary

    What if the Vegas bathroom conversation happens instead in Sochi Airport?

    What is Ilya is a little braver and a little more honest?

    “Hollander. I do not reply to your boring texts. I tell you to go away. Not because I am asshole…”

    The next words get caught in Ilya’s throat, he feels heat rising in his face as tears prick at the corners of his eyes.

    “Because this is Russia. Because I never forgive myself if something happened to me… if something happened to you. If..” Ilya sniffs, clearing his throat in a vain attempt to regain what little composure he has left, unravelling in the mens bathroom of the departure gates of Sochi airport. The acrid smell of piss and toilet cleaner and stale cigarette smoke lingers in the air. This is not the place to be having this conversation. Not this room, this airport, not this fucking country.

    ‘If what?” Shane asks. His voice trembling, barely above a whisper.

    Ilya opens his eyes. Fuck it, he thinks. If this is how it crashes and burns, if this is how it ends, not with a bang, but with a whimper, in a disgusting, reeking, mens’ bathroom in Russia. So god damn be it.

    “If I lost you.”

    Summary

    When Shane takes a hard hit on the ice, he wakes up three days later to find his reality has been shattered. But the truth is, it wasn’t reality at all. Just an elaborate set of false memories conjured by a brain injury. 'False memory syndrome' they call it. Shane calls it a nightmare he couldn't have imagined.

    Or

    Shane doesn’t have amnesia. Instead, he wakes up wanting his boyfriend only to realize his brain concocted a bunch of fake memories of a nine year situationship and Shane has no idea how to live in his actual reality that Ilya hasn’t been a part of. Luckily, Ilya is…curious.
