    How Does One Flirt with Neil Josten? by

    Fandoms: All For The Game - Nora Sakavic

    Summary

    Over the course of a few weeks, the Foxes get a front row seat to witness the obliviousness that is Neil Josten. So, in true Fox fashion, they decided to make a bet on whether or not he’d be able to tell if Andrew, his own not-boyfriend, was flirting with him as well.
    Andrew didn’t like making bets, and especially not on Neil. However, that didn’t mean his own intrigue and curiously didn’t prevent him from testing out this little theory of theirs.

    OR

    5 times Neil is oblivious to other people flirting with him, and the 1 time it was Andrew.

    Melt Down (go for it, luca haas!) by

    Fandoms: Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid

    Summary

    Luca Haas has a meltdown on the ice in the final five minutes of the game.

    Confidence scarred, he throws himself into a summer athlete campaign with the Centaurs to outrun the fear that he’ll never be as skilled, confident, or sexually expressive as Ilya Rozanov was at his age.

    But when “polite” Luca Haas snaps and shocks everyone by starting a fistfight with Filipino-Canadian youth athlete Angelo Perez, summer quickly derails into a dilemma to be seen as mature, living up to the expectations of the team, and these newfound, guilty urges for the very guy he fought on day one.

    Centaur matchmaking. Missing home. A messy summer fling. A mean article. An exploration of what sparks are supposed to feel like. And Ilya catches Luca buying condoms.

    And a “bad influence” that makes Luca feel—maybe for just one summer—that it's okay to be a little selfish.

    OR; Practically a character study of Luca Haas' insecurities + his foil to Rozanov disguised as a fan-made imitation of Rachel's scrapped Haas book

    When he was seven years old, Shane Hollander was briefly lost at an airport. Luckily, the kindness of a stranger ensured he made it back to his parents safely, putting an end to a terrifying three hours for the Hollanders. It takes twenty years (and one heated rivalry) for Shane to learn the name of his rescuer. It takes twenty years for Ilya to learn his wish had already come true.
