    Summary

    In another timeline, Shane and Ilya hook up in Room 1410, Ilya slips out unnoticed, and they spend the next seven years trapped in the situationship from hell we all know and love.

    In this one, Yuna Hollander walks in just as Ilya goes to leave and—through the combined power of misunderstanding, miscommunication, and a frankly alarming lack of follow-up—Shane and Ilya start dating in 2010.

    Given the chance to grow up with rather than against each other, Shane and Ilya build a life thats steadier, safer, and far less frightening than their canon. Their rivalry fizzles before it ever has the chance to fully ignite, replaced by hockey’s most beloved “bromance", and in 2015, they find the courage to do the one thing their canon counterparts never got to do: tell the NHL and the world.

    There is just one problem: No one believes them.

     

    OR: Despite Shane and Ilya being out for two years, Scott Hunter is still considered the first openly gay player in the NHL, much to Ilya’s indignation.

    Summary

    "Are you Russian?" Shane turned and said, a little too loud.

    Ilya laughed and lowered his head to the bed. That was a very cute laugh. "What gave me away?" He straightened up and looked at Shane.

    "The accent. I'm sorry, um... It's hot, actually." Fuck, why would he say that?

    "Is okay. Are you gay?" Ilya crossed his arms and looked at Shane with a smirk that went straight to his dick.

    "Uh... I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to ask me that." Shane turned red in an instant. "I didn't mean anything when I said it's hot. I'm sorry." He was messing this up so badly he should just pack and go back home.

    "Stop apologizing. I know I'm hot, yes." Ilya finished making the bed and got closer to Shane, leaning on his desk. "You are hot too. We can tell each other that, since we are both straight." He lowered his head back and winked. Fucking winked. What an asshole.

    "I'm... I'm not—"

    "So, gay?"

    —————————

    Freshman year was supposed to be simple: get out of Ottawa, get drunk, get laid. Then Shane met his hot Russian neighbor, who very helpfully announced that he was straight.

    Shane believed him right up until he walked in on Ilya with another man's mouth on his dick.
