    Summary

    Ilya’s mouth fell open a little. “It is 2017 Shane and your father has no idea I am here. I should hide.”

    “No!” Shane reached out and took Ilya’s hand. “Wait, if you really think it’s 2017-”

    “It is 2017, Shane,” Ilya interrupted him.

    He’d forgotten what he was going to say because Shane’s left hand was suddenly in his field of vision. He stared at it, stunned. There was no ring on his finger. There wasn’t even that little tan line that was always there when he took it off. How had he not noticed it was gone? Shane always noticed when his ring wasn’t there. Could feel its absence acutely, whenever he had to take it off which was almost never.

    “Ilya when did we first say ‘I love you’ to each other?” Shane asked slowly.

    “Yesterday,” Ilya replied. “What is going on Shane?”

    Shane sank to his knees on the dock, his head in his hands. They weren't married. His parents didn't even know about Ilya yet. They were still rival hockey players who lived in different countries and Shane felt like his heart was breaking.

    Summary

    "I can only hope that Kent realises how immature he is when he resorts to such obvious attacks." Still boring, but a good response. Shane seemed content with it, not noticing his slip at the end.

    " "Obvious attacks"? Are you saying you are part of the gay community?"

    Ilya watched as Shane's face drained of colour. He sighed and seemed to gather himself. Shane gave his golden boy smile, and turned to face directly at the camera. Ilya's heart skipped a beat in his chest.

    "Yes."

    The next pop was almost deafening in the aftermath. The energy in the stadium shifted in an instant. The screaming turned terrified.

    Those were shots, Shane realized, a second too late.

    "Get off the ice!" someone yelled.

    All hell broke loose.

    Summary

    Shane leaves Ilya on his couch in the dark, and they spend the next year and a half learning how to live without each other. Shane behind a relationship that isn't real, Ilya inside one that's all too real and slowly killing him. It takes getting outed to the entire world for them to find their way back.

    ----

    “You will be very angry. With me.” Each word came out weaker from the one before it and by the time Rozanov was done speaking LeClaire had to strain his ears just to hear what the other man way saying to him. “By morning. Is going to be everywhere.”

    LeClaire muted the television. Whatever Rozanov was calling about was going to require his full attention. It didn’t sound like there was any way this was going to stay in Boston or be something the Bruins could cover up. He ran through the possibilities in his head: vehicular manslaughter, Kent-esque accusations, Rozanov finally deciding to jump off the Storrow overpass. He honestly wasn’t sure which one of those would be worse.
