    Summary

    "Rozy," Brian, the team doctor says, "talk to me, buddy. That puck clipped you pretty good, how’s the pain?"

    Ilya blinks. He clenches his jaw against a wave of nausea. He rests his cheek on the ice, and the cold helps a little.

    "Bad. Very bad." He swallows. "Is Shane here?"

    -

    or, in the final MTL/BOS game of the year, ilya takes a puck to the head.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander is the number two overall NHL draft pick and a newly minted Montreal Voyageur. He’s also laser focused on his goals: being the best by beating the best. For him, this means a continued rivalry with number one draft pick—and new Ottawa Centaur—Ilya Rozanov. But when a problem with Rozanov’s immigration paperwork threatens his future in the NHL, what does that mean for Shane’s own career? He can’t risk finding out…so they get married. Just for immigration. A fast, practical, mutually beneficial solution.

    No one will ever suspect, let alone find out, that the NHL’s greatest rivals are secretly married. And there’s certainly no risk of feelings getting involved. They have a game plan.

    Summary

    Ilya wanted so badly to just tell Svetlana: It’s Shane Hollander, it’s always been Shane Hollander. He wanted to invite her over after the game so he'd know it was possible for her and Shane to exist in the same room without the world collapsing.

    He was calling Shane back before he even thought about it, his heart in his throat. 

    “Ilya?”

    “Can I invite Svetlana?"

    He could never have expected what happened next.

    Or: Only a few months after the cottage, Shane meets Svetlana—and goes to great lengths to defeat his jealousy.

    Summary

    “We’ve never met, but I’ve seen you before. Not in pictures, but in his face. In his smile. In his laugh,” Shane continues in Russian, slow and careful with each word as he looks out over the water. “On his good days. On the bad ones, too.”

    Oh, Ilya realizes distantly. His grip slackens on the mug in his hands. This is not for him.

    Summary

    “Oh my god,” the intruder says, voice coming faster and higher-pitched. “Shane, what the fuck? Oh my god.”

    “Eeleeyah, come to my cottage,” Ilya mocks, voice muffled by Shane’s skin. “Don’t go to Russia. Come to my house instead. Is so private. No one will know…we will be completely alone. Together.”

    “Oh my god, is that Ilya Rozanov?” the intruder yelps like he's about to start hyperventilating. “Why is Ilya Rozanov half-naked in our kitchen, Shane?”

    “Okay, I know how this looks,” Shane tells Ilya, “But I mean, technically, we are still alone. Together.”

    or,

    At the cottage, Shane and Ilya meet eighteen year old Shane Hollander. This is really only a surprise for one of them. Everyone handles it as well as can be expected.

    He was used to being without her. 

    The pain never went away but the sting became manageable; something he could tuck away and avoid ever thinking about. 

    Except when he couldn’t.

    Summary

    Ilya groans as he pushes himself off the couch, popping his back before padding toward the door. He opens the door with the bitchiest expression he can muster, ready to yell at whoever is disturbing his time to mope.

    Until he realizes he is looking at Shane fucking Hollander.

    ~*~*~*~*~*~

    Ilya does not go to the cottage.

    (Shane goes to him instead.)

    Summary

    "And so, like, Roz is never at these things?" Barrett had asked.
    "Well, he's come once or twice." Bood had answered, a thoughtful face on. "We always invite him, though I know at this point he's going to be busy."
    "But what's he doing?" Barrett asked, his face crunched up.
    "It's an Ottawa Centaurs mystery." Harris was sitting next to Barrett and was grinning at him as he elaborated. "Just like how NHL star Ilya Rozanov gets traded, willingly and by his own choice, to Ottawa and yet, no one knows why he chose the team."
    Or
    The Ottawa Centaurs have their own theories about what their captain gets up to in his free time. Wyatt Hayes organizes a bet about it. If only getting an answer out of Rozanov would be easy.

    Summary

    "You see that?"

    "yea," Ilya breathed, and he absolutely did see that. He'd been seeing that for months now, catching glimpses of Shane across campus, in the library, at the campus coffee shop where Shane always ordered the same thing; green tea. Ilya had maybe (definitely) developed what could only be described as a massive fucking crush, not that he'd admit it to anyone.

    "No one," Jake said, drawing out the words like he was making a dramatic announcement, "has ever bagged Hollander. Not once. The guy's basically allergic to giving anyone below his iq level a chance. But you—" he jabbed a finger into Ilya's chest, "—If anyone could do it, it's you."

    Ilya's alcohol-drawned brain was already latching onto the challenge before Jake even finished. "So what is the bet exactly?"

    "One month. You get Hollander to go out with you, really go out with you like proper dating and I'll give you a thousand bucks."

    It was the most idiotic idea he’s ever heard come out of Jake’s mouth (and that's saying a lot), so like any sane person; Ilya should just say no and move on with his life–

    "Deal."

    Summary

    He doesn’t remember any part of that night that didn’t involve Shane. He doesn’t remember the woman’s name, or what she looked like, or even why he didn’t go home with her. All of that was insignificant, a blur that faded into nothingness.

    He only remembers Shane, and then the absence of him.

    (They finally talk about what happened at the club.)

    “Ilya,” he whispers. “I want this. I want to know when you’re hurting and when things are hard, because I want you. I want you when you’re sad, and lonely, and messy-“

    “-you hate mess,” Ilya teases, drawing a hard-earned smile out of Shane.

    “But I love you.

    Summary

    "Ilya," Shane says, voice lilting and Ilya might fucking cry.

    "Hey," Ilya says, magnetized and moving towards him. Shane looks — soft, he looks fine, so fucking breakable but not broken.

    "There's my man," Shane says, in a small voice, musical. Ilya closes the distance between them, needing to touch him and needing him to lower his voice in equal measure.
