    Summary

    He wished he could just once pull and that Kevin wouldn’t push, but would just follow and let himself be dragged down to where his dress shoes would get muddy and his hair would be unkempt. So that he could match the mess that Jean was, so that they could be equal, so that Jean’s feelings wouldn’t feel so silly and lonely anymore.
    He squeezed a bit more.
    Please, please, just take the leap.

    Or: Jean Moreau thinks that it would be easier and faster for his boyfriends to learn how to read his mind than for him to muster up the courage to confess.

    Summary

    Shane has always had a complicated relationship with his own body.

    It’s his biggest tool to success as a hockey player. He wouldn’t be where he is without the trust and care he puts into this own body. So he takes care of it as much as he can. He exercises regularly to keep himself fit and strong, fuels it with the best food and nutrients he can, does his best to listen to the cues his body gives him to rest. It’s a careful balancing act as a professional athlete, stretching his body to its limits while also caring for it deeply.

    Still, he can’t deny that he feels let down by it often.

    Some days it feels very unfair.

    And then some days something even worse happens and that already strained relationship he has with his own body gets even worse.

    Summary

    “Listen, I know the sweater is ugly, but it’s rude to stare,” Shane said peevishly. He was overstimulated and wanted to go home, the last thing he needed was some dickhead staring at him.
    Ilya took a long drag of his cigarette, eyes still not leaving Shane.
    “Maybe staring is not bad thing,” Ilya said. “Maybe I stare because you are very pretty.”
    Shane floundered before he could form real words. “Well. That’s stupid.”
    “The staring? Or you being very pretty?”

    Or: A meet-ugly turned friends with benefits frat boy college au. Shane is convinced he’s nothing more than just another hookup on Ilya’s extensive roster. Ilya’s spent his whole summer plotting on how best to lock Shane down. Misunderstandings, emotional constipation, and terrible communication skills have nothing on Ilya Rozanov's persistence when it comes to getting his man.

    Summary

    "Listen, Mr. Rozanov." The general manager is talking out of the side of his mouth, his cigarette dropping ashes all over the hotel table. "We like you. We want you. We understand you are putting yourself under a fair amount of risk here, meeting with us like this. I hope it's obvious that if you play for us, we will set you up for a good life in Canada."

    He pauses, looks Ilya in the eye. "But you have to understand, if you agree to this, you have to be prepared to leave with us right now."

    Summary

    Neil is the most attractive person Andrew has ever seen in his entire life. Too bad that Andrew can't express that fact (not opinion) properly to him. It all should be fine, it's not like Neil doesn't know he's hot, right?

    Summary

    It's Matteo's first year of college, but he'd rather smoke weed in his dorm room all day than drag himself to class. He tries to sign up for what he thinks will be an easy arts elective and ends in a serious acting workshop. Here he sees the Boy he's been admiring from afar all over campus: David, who's directing the end-of-quarter production of Hamlet.

    David thinks Matteo's a slacker who's gonna ruin the production he's worked so hard on. Matteo thinks David's just another pretentious artist-wannabe who thinks he's better than him.

    And yet somehow, their faces keep ending up at such a kissable distance.

    (Or, a hate-to-love College AU in which there's not so much "hate" as misunderstanding, presumption, and a whole lot of sexual tension).

    Summary

    “My undershirt?”

    Hollander looked up from where he was scratching his shoulder, lazily laying on the mess they had made of the bed.

    “What?” he mumbled, sitting up against the pillows. The silken sheets fell into his lap, a soft unnecessary expensive luxury for an apartment Hollander kept insisting was just an investment.

    “Lost my shirt,” Ilya clarified.

    -

    Where Ilya loses some clothes and then finally puts together 1 + 1 and realizes Shane is not an alpha and where Shane is living through the slow realization that society's perfection does not fully exist.

    Summary

    Alphas aren't supposed to want other Alphas.

    For Shane Hollander, that unspoken societal rule doesn't ring true. It's fine, though. He has everything under control, and the people around him are none the wiser.

    Unfortunately, he never counted on Ilya Rozanov seeing right through him.
