    Summary

    What if Ilya answered the phone call from his brother when Shane was at his house. What if Shane could be there for him and how would it have changed their relationship moving forward?

    ------

     

    Shane didn’t hear from Ilya again for the rest of the day.  He had just crawled into bed, and was about to slip on his glasses on to read the book from his bedside table when his phone buzzed

    The message he found when he opened their thread was not what he expected

    Lily:  I think you packed wrong shirt by mistake.

    The photo was Ilya’s hands holding Shane’s white t-shirt.  He stared at the picture as heat rose to his cheeks, biting his lower lip as he tried to figure out what he should respond.  Before he could start typing another message appeared.

    Lily: This one is too small for me.

    Shane scowled, his embarrassment quickly turning to annoyance.

    Jane: It is not.  We are the same size.

    Lily: Uh, no.  We are not.  I am bigger than you.

    Jane: Asshole. You are not.

    Lily: You have seen me without shirt.  Do not pretend.

    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 Papa 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

    Five hockey players, one blizzard, and a shared wardrobe full of Russian labels that Shane is desperate to keep hidden. It turns out that forced proximity is a lot harder when your boyfriend is Ilya Rozanov and he’s being an ass just to keep the act up—and because the bed is little too cold and little too big for Shane to sleep alone.

    (There was a comment saying I should mention that you have to click on things, which is fair. So guys, click on everything — it’ll end up being something.

    chapter 8 is CSS I used to format this fic.)
