Summary
Shane Hollander was boring. Or at least that is what his ex-boyfriend told him when he unceremoniously dumped him. Now, six months after the last time he spoke to Johnathon, he was finally beginning to feel alright. He had a good job, a good side-hustle, good friends and (most importantly) good health. He didn't have to deal with Johnathon's mess left lying around his house, nor did he have to put up with his boyfriend's creepy preoccupation with another man.
So when he agreed to privately teach yoga to a famous client, he definitely didn't expect it to be his ex-boyfriend's parasocial obsession. He may resent Ilya Rozanov, but he's a professional who can keep it together. It's only a few months. He'll make it out of this alive. Definitely. Probably.

Summary
What if Troy Barrett met Shane Hollander first?
____
By the second period, it was clear even to fans in the farthest, cheapest seats that something unusual was taking place on the ice.
“This Centaurs lineup has been playing some pretty solid hockey lately, but tonight they seem to have slipped back into old habits,” one commentator said.
“Rozanov and Barrett do not look like line-mates, that’s for sure,” the other commentator agreed, disbelief in his voice.
“Seems like Rozanov’s forgotten which team he’s playing for.”
[...]
It went on like that well into the final period, until Barrett finally had enough. One more snub, one more chirp, one more empty lane Rozanov should have covered, and Troy was on him. Gloves hit the ice.

Summary
Finally, something dawns on him, a way to handle two goals simultaneously. He’d seen Hollander’s mother flipping through papers rapidly when they first got here, seeming calm and in control and more than a little frightening in a way that made Ilya mildly glad he wasn’t one of the people responsible for a clipboard. If anyone can tell him if the long list of “Prohibited Items” he’d been sent in his email a few days ago is just standard practice for big shoots, it would be Yuna Hollander.
Or, hopefully, her son.
“Crazy we cannot even have peanut butter, eh?” He asks. “You also got giant list?”
Hollander stiffens, almost imperceptibly, and Ilya tilts his head, just slightly, confused, wondering if he’s stumbled somewhere unexpected.

Summary
**TRIGGER WARNINGS**
*Internalised homophobia and conversion "therapy" are the main parts of this story (there are also elements of self-harm). I promise a happy ending - Ilya is going to get a queer and allied posse together to fight this, but it's going to be a rough road getting there*
Afraid of hurting Ilya, the disappointment of his mother, the embarrassment of the league and his teammates finding out, Shane makes a radical decision - he admits he's gay, and decides to stop. He embarks on a treatment of conversion therapy to make everything better for everyone.
Or
Shane understands only four words in Russian: Svetlana - I - love - her.
