    Summary

    The two-hour ride from the airport to the cottage and the conversation, or lack thereof, that takes place.

    "But it would take longer on the road," he responds, testing the water with the tip of his toes.

    Would you still like me even if it meant inconvenience?

    "I don't mind," Shane answers without thinking too much, "I like being on the road with you."

    Summary

    Finally, Ilya exhaled hard, shoulders slumping just slightly as he turned around. “I don’t like sharing you.”

    “I’m not shared,” Shane said softly. “You’re my boyfriend, he is my bestfriend.”

    Ilya turned back, eyes still stormy. “I see the way he looks at you. Because he looks at you the same way I look at you.”

    Shane’s mouth fell open, half grinning with amusement. Did Ilya really think Hayden was in love with him?

    “Ilya, Hayden has a wife and four kids, what are you talking abo-”

    “How could he not?!” Ilya cut him off. “You are perfect. Perfect son, perfect hockey player, perfect boyfriend, perfect friend!” He spits out, using air quotations to exaggerate the friend part.

    Summary

    In a timeline where Scott never worked up the nerve to kiss Kip, Ilya and Shane still make their relationship official but he never decides to play for Ottawa. Instead, they stick to a long-distance relationship which leads to Hayden hiding in a bathroom while his best friend crawls into bed with the most abhorrent man in the entire league.

    “He did not hit you on purpose,” Shane defended. “And you attacked him after he helped you up, remember? If the medic didn’t bench you, starting a fight would have. You probably got the better end of the deal.”  

    Good, Hayden thought to himself. At least he wasn’t going to throw JJ under the bus for what was clearly an accident.  

    Ilya tsk’d in annoyance. “Don’t act like he didn’t take the opportunity to throw a punch,” he replied. “I saw you go after Marleau, too.”  

    “Well, I had to go after someone. I couldn’t just stand there why everyone was fighting and look like an idiot,” Shane responded with a shrug. “Besides, it was mild payback for him sending me to the hospital.”

    “He said you fight like Pomeranian,” Ilya retorted with a straight face. “Puppy mitts that barely hurt.”

    Summary

    "So, Shane-y boy, how long are you gonna be out with Boston Lily?" Hayden mumbles to himself –

    – just as the tv says "...for the rival captains, Montreal's Shane Hollander and Boston's Ilya Rozanov."

    Boston Lily. Boston's Ilya…

    No way.

    Summary

    “Yeah, what the hell?” Comeau echoes. “Since when do you go around defending Rozanov?”
    “I – I’m not,” Hayden says, starting to carefully fold his clothes so he doesn’t have to look anyone in the eye. Maybe Shane is onto something, always folding his things instead of throwing them into his bag. Gives you a moment to concentrate on something manual, to think before having to respond to questions and comments.
    “You literally were defending him right now,” J. J. points out.

    ---

    Four times Hayden defends Ilya Rozanov to other people, and one time he defends Ilya from himself.
