    Summary

    Maybe if the video ended there, Shane thought, it would be okay. Okayish. Still incriminating. Still a fucking disaster. Still embarrassing, to have his breakup with this beautiful actress filmed and disseminated on Reddit of all fucking places, but not a nail in his coffin, burying him alive. But the video didn’t end there.

    “Can I ask if you’ve ever been with another guy?” she had to ask.

    And he, tears visible in his eyes, had to nod.

    Just once. Just a single nod.

    Why did he have to nod?

    “Have you ever told anyone that before?” He shook his head. “Was it different? With a guy?”

    “Of course.”

    Of course.

    “Was it better?”

    “Yes.”

    +++

    Shane’s conversation with Rose is secretly recorded. Months later, after the All-Star game and Ilya’s confession in Russian, the video gets leaked online. Shane is outed to the world while Ilya is in Russia, and must now finish the 2016-2017 season with the entire world in on his secret.

    Summary

    “Lily,” Hayden says automatically. “You know about Lily?”

    Something flickers across Rozanov’s face. His jaw twitches. “Yes, I know about Lily.” He raises his eyebrows.

    Hayden feels like a complete asshole, all of a sudden. There’s just been too much going on to even think about Shane’s mystery girlfriend. “Shit, I should probably, like, call her, or something? I don’t know this girl at all, but Shane’s been obsessed with her for years. If she was watching the game, she would have seen him get hurt.”

    “You don’t need to call her,” Rozanov says, and when Hayden glances at him, he still looks fucking miserable but now he’s rolling his eyes, a much more familiar expression of disdain on his face. “She’s sitting right here.”

    Chapter 2: Ilya and Shane talk about what it means, now that someone knows their secret.

    Summary

    “You and Scott,” Ilya says. “What was the fight about?”

    “Nothing serious. Just… shit-talking.”

    But Ilya has insulted Hollander on that ice in every way known to man. He has never gotten that under Hollander’s skin, not in the way he wanted to.

    He wanted to be the person Hollander got angry at. They were supposed to be the rivals. The two of them. Now tabloids were asking him about his rivalry with fucking Scott Hunter of all people.

    -

    Ilya gets jealous that Shane lost his temper at someone who wasn't him, so he edges Shane about it until he tells him what happened.

    Summary

    Just some nice post curse-breaking fluff to keep us going. Rated T for some making out, getting drunk in a haunted cabin, and accidental streaking. :)

    ==

    “How are you doing…really?” Ryan asked.

    “Not great, dad.” She leaned her head on his shoulder. “I saved Ace’s life by breaking the curse, but I completely abandoned my friends in the process. They’ve all moved on with their lives."

    "Hmm," he acknowledged resting his head on hers.

    "How is it that whenever I do the right thing…the hard thing…I always end up more alone then when I started?”

    “Do you regret it?”

    Nancy sighed. “No. I saved Ace’s life. Even if they never talk to me again, he is safe. That’s all that matters.”

    “Then that is your answer. And I know your friends. You just need to give them some time. And yourself.” As he finished, he clicked off the television.

    “Hey, I was watching that,” Nancy whined.

    “Maybe instead of living like a vampire, you can go out and check on your friends. You know, instead of waiting on them to seek you out, you can do something to rebuild that connection. They’re your best friends. Just give them some time.”
