Summary
Draco fought to keep his expression neutral, though it was difficult under Harry’s intense gaze.
“Don’t do that,” Harry said, his voice low.
“Do what?” Draco asked again.
“Modify your reactions around me. Or coddle me, or whatever, because you think I’m being emotional or I can’t handle it or you’re worried about upsetting me. Everybody does it, and I hate it.” Harry exhaled harshly. “I can’t handle it from you, too.”
Draco sighed, twisting the ring around his finger. “You are my client, remaining neutral and unbiased is my job, Harry. So is making sure you’re in the proper state to handle-”
“Oh, screw you,” Harry interrupted.
OR
Harry comes home after a long absence and Draco is still learning of old ghosts. What follows is a slow, rediscovery of what it means to belong.. both to the world, and to someone else. Or.. Harry and Draco are doing their best.

Summary
2014: Ilya Rozanov shocks the world and breaks Shane Hollander’s heart by disappearing without explanation, and without a goodbye kiss.
2024: A devastating injury forces Shane to retire early, so he moves to a small town to coach girls hockey and figure out what the hell to do with the rest of his life.
When recently divorced Ilya Rozanov walks into the rink with his twin girls, Shane has to decide if he’s brave enough to risk a second chance on a broken heart, and a rekindled romance with the first and only boy he ever loved.
***
“So.” Ilya cleared his throat. “Should we tell the girls their Daddy and their coach used to date?”
“We didn’t date. We hooked up a few times, then you disappeared.” Shane looked away to hide his heartbreak as he lied, “It doesn’t even matter. It’s not like I loved you or anything.”
“No, of course not.” Ilya tried to smile through a lie of his own, “I didn’t love you either.”

Summary
Shane Hollander is a man who thrives on structure, routine, the solid ground of a ten-year plan. Ilya likes that about him, likes the embracing squeeze of having a life organized in tandem with Shane.
No one would call Ilya a man who thrives on structure. But it’s there, if not in his DNA then in the patterns of his brain. A call-and-response of: they do this, I do that.
When Ilya’s life is flayed open for the world to dissect, how will they push-and-pull their way back towards what was once a well-organized life?
“I thought we could go through the schedules and figure out what days we’ll be in the same cities this season, or when either of us have a couple of days off in a row. Maybe make a shared calendar, so we c—”
“A sex calendar? Your parents are arriving in thirty minutes, and you are proposing making a sex calendar?” Oh, this was delicious. He’d be able to eat out on this for years, if Shane was willing to give him that long.
“It’s not a sex calendar! It’s just … when we might be able to see each other,” he finished, already sounding defeated.
“And what are you planning on doing when we are seeing each other? Not fucking?”
