    Summary

    “You want to talk to people about me?” Shane asked quietly.

    There was something small and confused in the question. But Ilya was still furious and raw.

    “Well I would,” he sneered, “if there was anything about you that was fucking interesting to talk about! It would be nice to not be so fucking bored and miserable!”

    The second the words left his mouth, he watched the pain roll across Shane's features like a thousand fractures shattering through glass.

    Ilya had seen Shane nearly break ribs. He had seen him miss game-winning shots, take hits that left bruises blooming purple and black across his skin. He had never seen this.

    Shane closed his eyes for a long moment. He shook his head slightly, a tiny movement, then nodded once as if agreeing with something only he could hear. His face twisted briefly with a fresh wave of pain before he forced it to still.

    ---------

    What if Shane and Ilya don't make up so easily after the Boxing Day fight? The Centaur's plane never malfunctions, so Shane never proposes. Instead, Ilya gives him an ultimatum on coming out and going public. It backfires spectacularly.

    Summary

    Ilya’s dad dies right before the 2017 All-Star Game, so he never learns that Shane and Rose broke up. While he’s in Russia, a threat from his brother makes him ask Svetlana for help and marry her so he can get a US green card—it’s meant to be a discreet, simple thing, but the Boston tabloids get a hold of it and then it’s all over social media. Three months later, Shane Hollander holds a press conference to share two things: he's leaving Montreal to play for the Ottawa Centaurs, and he's gay.

    Summary

    “Yes,” Ilya says carefully. “We’re friends.”

    Which is true. Technically. In the same way the sky is technically blue. Troy nods, like he’s confirming something he already knew. He takes a sip of his beer, then exhales, a quick huff of air that might be courage.

    “Do you think-” he says, and then stops, grins awkwardly. “This is stupid.”

    “Just say it,” Ilya replies, a little too quickly.

    Troy laughs. “Okay. Do you think I could get his number?”

    The words land wrong. Hard. For a second, he worries his heart has stopped. Ilya turns slowly, fixing Troy with a look that’s supposed to be neutral. Captain neutral. Inside, something hot and sharp twists in his chest.

    ---

    Troy asks Ilya for Shane's number. Ilya does not cope well.

    Summary

    An 'innocent' video of Ilya and Shane is posted, and their lives are abrutply turned upside down. Forced seperation, security detail, no-contact and broken hearts ensue.
    ____

    He knows who it is without having to turn around. Even in silence, in darkness- in the dim corner of the world, Ilya has always had a way of commanding a space and making his presence known.

    “Made it five minutes before running. Is new record, no?” Ilya says behind him, voice low and cruel.

    Shane’s laugh comes out wrong, hollow and sharp, because of course Ilya would follow him just to be an asshole. He turns slowly, because part of him wants to see if this is real and part of him wants to rip the reality out by the roots.

    “Fuck you,” Shane snaps, voice shaking with rage he didn’t realize he had. “After five months of silence, that’s the first fucking thing you say to me? Fuck. You.”

    Summary

    It happens in an instant.

    Over Ilya’s shoulder, Shane sees the doctor and Wiebe give each other a look, and in a sudden bout of impatient anxiety, Shane ends up saying the words that come to ruin everything.

    “Don’t touch me.”

    The effect is instantaneous. Ilya’s hands fly to his sides, and Shane gets a front row seat as Ilya’s heart breaks before his very eyes. Eyes dimming and lips trembling in slow, painful technicolor.

    It causes Shane’s heart to break, too, and he vows, immediately, never to see such a look cross his husband’s face again.

    OR Shane embarks on a mission to heal his husband’s heart, one PDA at a time.

    Summary

    Shane tries to remember, peering into the darkness surrounding the car with a furrowed brow. It hurts to move, and he feels something warm and slick sliding down his cheek.

    More blood, his mind supplies rather unhelpfully.

    He was driving after dark, but he shouldn’t have been. He wasn’t supposed to be. They had all night together, so why is he here?

    I already chose you, Hollander.

    Shane inhales sharply as his mind slowly fills in the gaps in his memory. They fought. Ilya told him to leave. Shane did.

    And then he crashed.

    Summary

    “I’m right here. And you are okay, and you are safe, and healthy, and you are at home, yes? It is quiet, and nobody is there, nobody is bothering you. And the world is full of stupid idiots, but you are not one of them. And I am here. When you need me, I am here.”

    ---------

    or: The whole world thinks Shane is gay because of some stupid internet rumors, and he doesn't even have to confirm it. He's losing control of his entire life and he needs somewhere to put what little he does have.

    Ilya has open hands.

    Summary

    ...I guess I should just say it. I was wondering if you'd—”

    “I think we should stop seeing each other.”

    “—like to come to my cottage this summer.”

    The plate slips from Shane's hand and shatters on the kitchen floor.

    Or: Shane doesn't get injured that night Montreal plays Boston. Ilya follows through on his plan to break things off with him. Well, he tries, at least.

    Summary

    "Why are you not scared?"

    "I am scared," Ilya admits. "I just am tired. Of hiding me. Of hiding you. Of hiding how much I love you. I want to go to the rink— how do you say it? Authenti."

    "Authentically," Shane supplies, automatically.

    "Yes. Authentically. I want to go to the rink authentically, as me," Ilya confirms.

    Ilya looks at Shane, pauses until Shane meets his eyes. "I want to say: I, Ilya Rozanov, love a man, and that man's name is Shane Hollander."

     

    -

    Or, sometimes it takes a little more time, and some courage, to be with the one you love.

    Summary

    “Ah,” Ilya said, grinning, going for the joke.

    Shane looked up, curious.

    “So being boring is genetic?”

    He expected laughter. Or the way Shane would roll his eyes even as he melted, the way that made the teasing feel welcome.

    Instead, Shane’s smile disappeared completely. It wasn’t dramatic. It just… went. Like a light switched off.

    “Yeah,” Shane said, clearing his throat, forcing the word out before it could crack. “I guess so.”

    He took a step back, creating space that felt suddenly necessary, like he might suffocate if he drifted any closer. Every instinct in him screamed to leave. To put distance between himself and this feeling and the source of it before it swallowed him whole

    Summary

    Shane stands there, framed by the hallway light, looking like he’s walked straight out of a bad dream. His face is bruised, there's a gash on his cheek that's bleeding, his lip is split, eyes too dull. One arm is tucked in close to his side, and Ilya knows, knows, it's because his ribs are hurt.

    Shane’s expression is raw and vulnerable in the way prey is when it knows it can’t run anymore.

    “Sorry, didn't know where else to go.”

    Summary

    Months of patterns that have excluded him finally come to a head. Shane makes a decision that detonates across the league — and his life.

    A two-shot of Shane being ready to burn it all to the ground and finally choosing himself!

    Summary

    She’d never say anything, of course, because she could be wrong. In fact, most days Yuna was certain she was wrong. Shane had only ever dated girls, and had never shown any outright signs of liking… anything else. But that didn’t stop her from wondering, occasionally, whether her son was entirely straight.
    But the last hour or so had certainly put paid to that suspicion. Because Shane was receiving a frankly alarming number of texts from someone named ‘Lily’.

    Or: Yuna and David meet Ilya Rozanov at the hospital after Shane’s injury.

    He’s already in the room, shutting the door behind himself as quietly as he can before he realises that not only is there someone other than Shane in the room, but there are three someones other than Shane.

    Summary

    “Say something.” Ilya asks “in Russian. For me.”

    Then softly, carefully, he does. “Я всё ещё скучный.“ I’m still boring. He tried to add humour to it. But he doesn’t know if it reached.

    Still, Ilya's breath catches.“Oh.” He says like he’s just been handed something precious. “You’re perfect.”

    Or, Shane had been learning Russian the whole time.

    “Did you like them? My parents?”

    Ilya squints at him. “I love them,” he says simply, like it should be obvious. “They’re your parents.”

    But, Shane thinks idly, there's a difference, isn't there, between loving them and liking them?

    (5 times Shane thinks Ilya doesn't like his parents and 1 time he finds out the truth)
