    Summary

    Ilya knows that, between him and Shane, he's the more affectionate of the two. He's not sure if it's because he's from Europe, where everyone greets each other with a hug and a kiss on the cheek, or if it's because he grew up so starved for love and affection that he can't do anything except show Shane how much he loves him at any chance that he has.

    So, yes, he knows that he's the one most likely to kiss Shane on the cheek when he skates by him at practice or come up behind Shane when he's cooking dinner just to wrap his arms around him or fall on top of Shane while he's reading on the couch, desperate to have his skin touching Shane's.

    But, Shane… Shane loves Ilya differently. It's quieter. More intentional.

    ---

    Or, five times that Shane loved Ilya in his quiet way, and one time that he loved Ilya loudly.

    Summary

    “If we are burning jerseys,” Ilya begins, eyeing the massive blank space on Shane's side of the room where his Montreal sweaters used to live, “I would have gone to the store for marshmallows.”

    “Burning polyester smells like shit,” Shane replies, scrunching his nose.

    OR: The one where Ilya is attracted to Shane an absolutely normal amount, the Centaurs go 1-1 in their first two games against the Metros, and Shane reckons with Montreal as a concept.

    Summary

    He glances at the window. Nobody is looking. Their cards are down. All of their cards are down. He’s still looking over his shoulder. “You are out, you are on a team with potential -”
    “We,” Ilya corrects. “We are all of those things.”

    The start of the season marks Shane’s first year with the Centaurs and playing with his husband. He’s got a lot to prove now that the honeymoon is over.
