Summary
“I feel really good about this kid, I think he could be great on your wing, he just needs some help settling in. Someone to show him the ropes.”
“Yes.”
The line went silent for a moment. Ilya wasn’t really sure why his coach felt the need to run this by him.
“Rozanov,” his coach said at last. “I want him to live with you.”
Ilya blinked, then nearly shouted into the phone. “What?”

Summary
Shane returns from the showers to find the locker room far more animated than when he left it. Everyone has their phones out, and when he sees Shane coming, JJ says, “Câlisse, Hollander, about fucking time! Ilya Rozanov got caught kissing a man.”
After the tuna melt debacle, but before Rose, Ilya makes the reckless decision to go to a gay bar to take his mind off of Shane. When photographs get published, Shane has a realization and devises a plan: he's going to ask Ilya Rozanov to marry him.
Ilya's going through enough without things he can't have being dangled in front of him. He needs to figure out a different way to avoid going home, because eventually Shane Hollander will realize what Ilya already knows: Ilya isn't worth what Shane wants to do for him.

Summary
Ilya drops to his knees and finds a sleeping baby in a tiny pink bunny patterned onesie. It feels illegal for something to be this small. Who would do something like this? Surely a mother somewhere would be sick with worry. Then he sees a folded square of paper tucked into the side of the car seat. He unfolds it to a note – Ilya, I can’t keep her. She’s yours.
Ilya undoes the car seat buckle as fast as his shaking hands will allow. Slowly, carefully, he lifts her from her car seat and settles her in his arms. The baby stirs, and when she opens her eyes, they’re the clearest blue he’s ever seen – a mirror image of his own.
He is so fucked.
Or, Ilya very suddenly stumbles into parenthood, Shane isn't a step dad he's the dad who stepped up, and Hayden Pike might not be so bad after all.

Summary
If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away. ~ Thoreau
