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?

Summary
Anyway, he thought as he drove to the rink. We were never together, and we’re extra not together now. He would not be letting that man see every inch of him and carry him to bed from his shower floor. He would not let him kiss his earlobe, which he liked to do every time for some reason. He was certainly not going to let him scan every inch of his body anymore. So whether there was something under the surface, spilled out messy guts getting stains on everything, Ilya wouldn’t know about it.
