Summary
Neil met Andrew in juvie when he was 15 after his mother died and the cops found him staring at a burning vehicle. He was wary of him at first but eventually, they became friends which then led to a little bit more than friends. When Andrew eventually left to go live with Aaron, they kept in touch, until Neil got out of juvie and returned to his life on the run, where their contact was scarcer. One day, Andrew got a call from +44 20 number. London. When he answered it was the same boy he missed, calling to tell him that he gave up on running and was seeking refuge with his uncle Stuart in London. And he went by Neil now. Neil Hatford. Andrew was just happy to hear that he was all right.
That was 3 years ago. Now Andrew is a sophomore at Palmetto State University, playing exy for the Foxes. And Neil… Well.

Summary
Rozanov cocked his head. “You speak Russian? Or just the curse words?”
“Yes, I speak Russian,” he snapped, defensive and angry. He knew that it had been a mistake to even try to be friendly with Rozanov. “Why? Do I not look Russian to you?” He scoffed.
“No, not really,” Rozanov said. Some of his teammates laughed, although they mostly looked surprised that Shane was speaking to them at all. Rozanov didn’t laugh, though. “Are you Russian?”
“Go fuck yourself.”
+++
Despite an inauspicious start, when Russia’s Ilya Rozanov learns that Canada’s Shane Hollander is fluent in Russian at their first World Junior Championships tournament, it changes everything and sets them on a different course. Instead of being branded as rivals from the very beginning, Ilya and Shane start off as friends.
And, after all, a little friendly rivalry never hurt anyone, did it?

Andrew absolutely should not be interested in Kevin's protege.
For one thing, he's too young.
For another thing...
Nope, that's it.

Summary
Andrew would not call himself obsessed with Neil Josten.
He would say he has a healthy fascination with his way of teaching, his apparently deep-reaching expertise on the intricacies of crime, and the way his tight little ass looks in those expensive slacks he wears to class.

Summary
"You won't if you want to fuck me tonight." Hollander had said in Russian. “Maybe I make you wait a whole week. Maybe I wear your jersey around and nothing else, but you still won’t be allowed to fuck me.”
Dmitry glanced up, pausing from where he was unlacing his skates. What the fuck could in the conversation possibly have possibly led to this?
He glanced at Rozanov, who'd been smirking and teasing Wyatt only a second earlier. Now, his mouth was firmly shut. All the rest of the team stared at Rozanov.
Wyatt laughed. "Oh my God, Roz I don't even know what he said but you are so damn whipped!"
"One word from the husband and he shuts up!" Bood crowed.
Chouinard jumped in. "Yeah, what the hell did you say to shut him up that quickly, Hollzy?"
(4 times shane was less boring than people thought. including hickeys, never have i ever, being in the room next door to them at a hotel, and a russian rookie)

As he walked past he caught a brief exchange between the two.
“Thanks for cleaning up out here, I know there are things you’d rather do than clean up after us,”
Rozanov laughed and kissed Shane. “Yes, I do not like playing maid for Boiziau and Pike. But I know you will stress if it is not done, so I do it. Go, relax.”
In response, Shane melted into Rozanov. Shit, JJ could understand why. That was actually romantic as fuck. Damn, Rozanov.

Surprisingly, Rozanov seemed to understand completely. “Long distance is hard, yes?”
Wyatt saw Bood’s eyebrows raise. “You talking about your girl, Rozy?”
Rozanov shrugged. “We know what it is like. I have had years of practice. Was complicated. Long distance is shit. It is better now I am here, in Ottawa.”
“What?”
“Yes, uh- she is from Ottawa.”
Bood’s mouth dropped open. “That’s why you moved teams? For her?”

Summary
The NHL's power couple has a new hobby: using Scott Hunter as their emotional (and chirp-related) ping-pong ball. He’s not mad, he’s just… profoundly done.
Or,
Two games, two losses, two infamous knuckleheads. Only, one is a ragebaiter. The other is ragebaited. Scott Hunter is just the poor soul standing between them.

Summary
The batch of horses that had been brought in were wicked, so there was no chance for a lucky draw. As the crowd itched for the fourth ride, the announcer spluttered. “Tonight, the next boy out of the gate is a rookie. Tonight’s his first ride under these lights,” He doubled back again, staring at his script as Dan nodded. “From out East in Maryland, make some noise for Neil Josten on Lady Macbeth.”
OR
Neil Josten is running. He leaves Maryland with nothing but a pickup truck and a duffel bag. Neil finds himself stranded in Western Montana, and enters a rodeo competition on a whim. Suddenly, he’s offered somewhere to stay. A place to hide from his past.
OR
Neil ends up on a horse ranch and suddenly finds out that he never knew what family was.

Summary
Shane blinks his eyes open to find Ilya hovering above him. “Let me make you a burger for dinner.”
“Ilya,” he smiles. Translation: Diet.
“I will make you bird burger, the way you like it. Bean patty. Fake bread bun.”
“You think they have my bean burgers and weird bread at this thing?” Shane had been expecting to just survive on veggie platters until they got home.
Ilya scoffs like he said something stupid. “Yes, Hollander, I told Dykstra to order them last week.”
Shane and Ilya attend the 2019 Dykstra-Pike collaborative Canada Day cottage party.
