    Summary

    “Boys, I appreciate the thought you’ve put into this so far,” Yuna said. “But there’s no way you're hiding this for ten years. It is going to leak. We need an actual reasonable plan for you to come out safely and be happy so you can do this on your own terms and not be miserable.”

    --

    The ten-year plan was never going to work. Fortunately, thanks to Yuna, Shane and Ilya now have a new and improved plan that could have them safe and happy in just a year or two's time. They just have to want it bad enough.

    Ottawa a year early. Support from friends and family. Therapy. Rebranded images. A more confident and secure Shane. A public friendship hard launch. A relationship soft launch.

    There's a lot to do. It's time to put in the work.

    Summary

    to celebrate their first wedding anniversary, Shane gives Ilya the most dangerous gift imaginable: for the next twenty-four hours, Shane's answer to every request will be...

    YES.

    the first few requests are exactly what Shane expected.

    the others...

    not so much.

    Summary

    “Is that really why you're single? You're afraid you'd let your partner down?”

    Ilya took a sip and tried to battle the urge to be honest, but it was useless. He had developed an Achilles heel, and it came with beautiful brown eyes that were currently piercing straight through his soul.

    “I think I am single because I have fun being single,” Ilya started with the easier part of his answer, and he saw Shane nod. That part was expected.

    Ilya took a shaky breath before he admitted the rest. “And I have not met anyone that I wanted to be with, enough. One time, maybe. But was not possible.”

    ***

    Shane and Ilya stop hooking up during their rookie season after their secret is almost exposed. Six years later, Scott Hunter comes out and changes everything. Ilya and Shane decide to forge an unlikely friendship as they navigate the league, coming out, and Scott Hunter's annoying queer group chat.

    And they accidentally fall in love, obviously.

    Summary

    Shane can't believe what he's seeing. Did this guy seriously just post publicly on the student Facebook page asking for someone to act as his fake boyfriend?

    Okay. Well. Shane is a helpful guy. He's just going to quickly message this idiot, tell him to take his post down, and move on with his life.

    The other ten chapters are almost certainly about something else entirely.

    Summary

    “Why is he dating when he has me?”

    “I mean… you’re not with him,” Cliff said carefully, and Ilya sat up, glaring at his best friend. “Oh come on, Roz, you know that’s true. Maybe you’re friends now or whatever, but he’s not agreed to be with you or anything.”

    Ilya sniffed, his eyes welling up in that way they only tended to after too many drinks. “I… I would be perfect for him, Marly. I would treat him soooo good, I would kiss his little freckles, and fuck his pretty little hole-”

    “Okay, that’s enough,” Cliff said, cutting Ilya off in his prime.

    Shane Hollander is tired of men who can't keep up with what he needs without being taught how.

    So, one drunken night, he sends a tweet into the void:
    I’m done with training men to be what I need. Where can I find a man who doesn’t need instructions?

    Ilya Rozanov sees it and decides this is finally his chance. Because if Shane wants a real man - someone confident, someone capable, someone who can give Shane exactly what he wants - then Ilya is more than happy to volunteer.

    All he has to do is prove to Shane that the man he's been looking for has been right in front of him all along.
