    Summary

    Shane was never going to forgive himself for leaving, for hearing Ilya sob from the otherside of the door and still walking away. Ilya told him to leave and it broke something in Shane. He stared down at the container of meal prep, eyes wet and his chest caved in, and threw it in the garbage.
    This was moment things truly spiraled out of control.

    Summary

    They’re only standing like that for about a minute, if even, when Hollander decides to make conversation, “So, uh, are your parents here with you?”

    Ilya just nods. His mom is here with him, of course she is. She wouldn’t want to be anywhere else and Ilya doesn’t think he appreciates her enough for that, but he tries. As best as he can, at least.

    “That’s nice, mine are too,” Hollander says quietly with a smile and they fall back into that earlier silence, listening just to those same sounds.

    Skates on ice.

    Sticks hitting pucks.

    Each other’s breathing.

    After a few minutes, Hollander awkwardly clears his throat and takes a step back, “Anyway, uh, I should probably go. My parents, they’re waiting on me, but um…” He trails off and Ilya notices the hesitation in his voice before he takes his hand out of his pocket and holds it out to Ilya again, smiling, “good luck in the tournament.”

    OR, Grigori is the one to die when Ilya is 12, Irina lives, and this fic is how that's changed the plot.

    Summary

    Shane heard the blade coming down right by his ear. The schlick of it as it sliced through the ice, echoing in the arena, the place eerily silent in a way Shane had never witnessed before.

    Then, a gasp.

    Or, Shane Hollander takes a blade to the throat.
