Summary
When the unsentimental financial imperative of the NHL sees Shane traded to the Boston Raiders, he and Ilya are thrown into closer extended proximity than ever before. As they adjust to life as teammates, they are forced to contend with the nature of their relationship -and must answer for themselves: is it even a relationship at all?
____Sliding down the wall, Shane hunched over his untied sneakers, shoved on hastily when Coach had called him in for a meeting after morning skate.
“Boston wanted you specifically. I’ve already spoken to their GM. You’re flying this evening or tomorrow morning: I’ll confirm once the paperwork clears.”
“Mom,” Shane managed.
“Oh sweetie. I know, okay. Those fuckers, how dare they do this! Two fucking cups! Now all of a sudden they decide they want a reset and you’re going to fund it.”
Shane put his head between his knees and tried to breathe. God, Boston. They hated him there; it was so far away; he was fucking their captain.

Summary
Shane Hollander's world revolved around hockey. From morning practice, to midday lift, to the evening skate, his world narrowed in on the ice, his thoughts only ever quieting as he focused on the puck's movement to the back of the net. And yet, he wasn't ready for the pros. It had nothing to do with skill or ability, Shane knew he could play for some lower ranked NHL, but he wanted to make more out of his life. When Boston College's head coach contacted him, giving Shane a chance to move to the states for four years, study, and play hockey, Shane would have been a fool to turn him down.
Ilya Rozanov needed a change of scenery. He was good at hockey, this he knew was the undeniable truth. So why not use that skill to get out of Russia for a little bit and try some place new? Some place that was also freezing cold with blunt people and bitter winters. Why not try Boston?
The two top college hockey recruits drafted into the same conference on teams with a historic rivalry. What could possible go wrong?
Or
A college hockey AU where Ilya gets recruited to play for Boston University and Shane gets recruited to play for Boston College.

Summary
And oh, Ilya was a weak, weak man.
Because Shane had clearly gotten the wrong advice from someone along the line.
And as his RA, his mentor and guide in the first year of Shane's college career, he was meant to correct that. Steer his charge clear of such horrible, terrible ideas as asking their “straight” RA to teach them how to kiss behind their boyfriend's back. Say no, malysh, you really don't need to worry about this, your first kiss should be with someone you love and trust and really want to kiss.
“Okay,” he said, instead, and thought that at least he wasn't going to be sent back to Russia.
He was going to be sent straight to hell.

Summary
Svetlana: Ilyusha, I have a proposition for you.
Ilya: What?
Svetlana: I have a friend - he is very sweet, very handsome. Realized he’s gay but is too nervous to date because he’s inexperienced in bed. Up for giving him some lessons? He’s not out. Would be DL.
Ilya: No.
Shane’s breath hitched. Why did he feel so disappointed? This was the best case scenario. Getting sex lessons from his hockey arch rival was the worst thing he could do. This was good. This was how it should be. And his name had never been said, so Rozanov was none the wiser–
He yelped when he saw what Svetlana had responded with.
Svetlana: It’s Shane Hollander.
Ilya: Da. I will do it.
Or; Ilya Rozanov gives Shane Hollander sex lessons. What could go wrong?

Summary
Ilya starts calling Shane boring regularly after that, not cruelly but persistently, the way you press a bruise you know is there just to confirm it still hurts. Shane's cereal is boring, Shane's training schedule is boring, Shane's shoes lined up by the door are boring, and Shane responds with variations of "fuck off" and "you're an asshole" that become increasingly creative and occasionally surprising. They do not talk about anything that matters. They talk about groceries and whose turn it is to take out the trash and whether Ilya's music is too loud at midnight, which it is.
On the ice, Shane is someone else entirely. Ilya watches him from the upper stands every morning with vending machine coffee going cold in his hand and doesn't tell anyone.
Or: Shane asked Ilya once how you know when it's the right person. Ilya described Shane to him, and Shane didn't recognise himself.
