    Summary

    Shane Hollander was perfect; the perfect son, the perfect boyfriend, the perfect friend. He had spent years refining perfection, making sure he was the picture of it. It was second nature after all these years; a suit that didn’t quite fit, but that he’d gotten used to.
    Enter Ilya Rozanov.

    Summary

    There were things about Shane Hollander that existed only in the dark, and those things were most of him.

    or; a moment of vulnerability at a team gathering turns into a viral scandal overnight when a video of Shane coming out is leaked to the press.

    Suddenly, everyone is watching. Everyone is talking. Everyone is judging.

    It all goes to hell—until maybe it doesn't.

    Summary

    Instantly, Shane sat up, pulling his phone away from his ear and switching to his messaging app. He opened his texts with Noah, hoping against hope, and—fuck

    “No, no no no—”

    Just like he said, a picture of a vanilla protein shake stared him right in the face. Shane’s heart nearly dropped to his stomach and he swallowed hard. Shane’s only saving grace was that it was still marked as delivered, but that was once again short lived when it switched to read before a typing bubble appeared, then disappeared. Then Ilya’s text came in, and oh, he was fucked. 

    Whoops. Shane’s eyes were glued to his recent message, and there it was, the picture that was intended for his boyfriend. 

    Shane accidentally sends a pic of himself in lace panties to Ilya, instead of his douchebag of a boyfriend. And, well.. Ilya and Shane fuck about it.

    Summary

    “The specific area that was damaged in the fall is what we refer to as the GAF center of the brain.” 

    “GAF?” Ilya asks, puzzled. “Doctor Matthieu, English is not my first language. Can you please speak plainly.”  

    “GAF stands for Give A Fuck.” 

    Ilya’s eyebrows shot to the top of his hairline. “...What?” 

    “I’m afraid that Shane is no longer able to give a fuck.” 

    OR

    After Shane's collision with Cliff Marlow, Shane damages the part of his brain where all of his fucks are stored. No longer able to give a fuck, he confesses his true feelings to Ilya, and says some things to his parents that he normally never would have dared.

    Summary

    Heat spread across Ilya's face. His mouth fell open slightly. He let out a short, stuttered laugh of disbelief. This couldn't- he was straight, he wasn't-

    “Finally got you at your own game.” Shane's smirk widened to a smile, his hand clapping down on Ilya's shoulder to squeeze it slightly. For once in his life, Ilya was unable to find his voice.

    “Damn.” Shane laughed, jostling him a bit. “If I had known this was all it took to get you to shut the fuck up, I would have started flirting back years ago.”

    ----

    When old college friends Ilya and Shane show up to their mutual best friend's wedding, they are ready to fulfill their duties as bridesmen. Even after years of not seeing each other, they fall right back into their usual banter.

    Ilya loves to flirt with Shane. Shane loves to tell him to fuck off. It's a running a bit. Nothing more than a joke between two friends; because Shane is gay and Ilya is straight and it doesn't actually mean anything…until Shane finally decides to flirt back, and Ilya's world suddenly tilts on its axis.

    Summary

    “Sorry to keep you waiting,” Ilya said, striding across the hotel room as if he owned it.

    Shane looked up at Ilya through his eyelashes, pausing a moment before responding, “Who said I was waiting for you?”

    “Hm, I know you’re an impatient slut,” growled Ilya, inching closer to his boyfriend for a kiss. Shane turned away from his kiss. Ilya’s eyes darkened.

    Shane stood up, meeting his boyfriend’s gaze. “You’re the slut. Why don’t you tell me more about Mary, or was her name Maria?”

    Ilya’s eyebrows raised. “You remember her name, but I would be happy to tell you about Mary, but which one…”

    “Shut up.”

    “And how could I forget about Michael…”

    Shane moved closer. “I said shut up, slut.”

    “Make me.”

    Or

    Three weeks apart was too many for Shane Hollander, and Ilya was about to find out exactly how possessive Shane could get.

    Summary

    "Never have I ever checked out my teammates in the locker room." Comeau said, looking directly at him.

    Shane left his beer exactly where it was and met Comeau's gaze without saying a word, waiting for someone else to break the silence, because surely that had to have been a joke.

    "Come on, Cap. It's no fun if you're just gonna lie." Drapeau let out with a quiet snort.

    Shane frowned, genuinely confused. "What?"

    "You really expect us to believe you've never taken a peek at us in the showers?"

    Summary

    “How long?”

    Shane was shaking.

    -

The two rival captains are forced to choose between everything they've spent years building and the person they never quite learned how to let go.

    Summary

    "I'm coming to the cottage."

    What was the rest of the conversation? And a little scene added at the cottage. Mostly based on the show.

    ***
    Shane felt almost giddy. Disbelief pulsed through him at the confirmation that this was actually happening.

    “Holy shit,” he said quietly, and then shaking his head when he realized that wasn’t the answer to Ilya’s question.  “Yes!  Ottawa International Airport.  Just wear something inconspicuous, and I’ll text you where I park.” 

    “Oke,” he heard Ilya’s hesitation and felt apprehension tighten its claws into his chest.  

    Was this the moment it all became too real for Ilya?  Would he back out?

    “What is inconspicuous?” Ilya finally asked, and Shane almost doubled over in relief.

    “It means don’t stand out,” Shane explained without hesitation or reproach.  “Just wear something that blends in.”

    “Ah, yes,” Ilya murmured his understanding into the phone, his voice taking on a playful lift for his next words. “Do not worry, no one will notice me, Hollander.”

    Summary

    Ilya widens his eyes, moves his hands in an impatient “get on with it” motion. He has the urge to say it for him, end both their misery. Shane blinks rapidly a few times, takes another deep breath. “I want to stop,” he says simply.

    Ilya lets out one humorless laugh, “Stop what?”

    Shane ignores him. “At the All Star Game, I told you I liked you. And you said about Russia and your family. And I looked some things up. I get it. I get it better now. I know we can’t but I can’t stop wanting to be…more. Unless we stop.”

    OR

    Shane just wants to be friends and Ilya is, like, fine with that or whatever

    Summary

    What if Shane doesn't go back to his room after the infamous Vegas penthouse suite night? What if he finds himself at the bar with other hockey players and what if Ilya gets a call from Marly telling him this.

    What if they both realize how much they've been hurting each other? What if they actually talk?

    ______

    “Rozy!” Cliff shouted through the phone and Ilya winced. “Where did you go? You have to get back down here.”

    Ilya sighed, rolling his eyes. “I have flight in the morning, Marly. I know what you look like drunk. I do not need to come see.”

    “Come on, Roz,” Cliff almost whined. “Even Hollander is down here holding up the bar or maybe it’s holding him up. Kinda hard to tell at this point. Gonna let him be the life of the party when you won the fucking award?”

    The fog in Ilya’s brain shifted and scattered at the name.

    Ilya’s stomach sank.

    Fuck.
    Fuck.
    Fuck.

    “How many has he had?” Ilya asked, pushing himself up from the bed, glancing around the room until he saw his dress pants and shirt still on the floor by the end of the bed.

    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov is many things—a pain in Shane Hollander’s ass, hockey’s biggest playboy, a better chirper in his second language than most people are in their first, the only player who can challenge Shane for the title of “best of his generation.” But when Shane and Ilya get stuck next to each other on a long-delayed flight to the MLH Awards, Shane realizes something else about him: Ilya Rozanov is hot.

    ***

    Shane and Ilya never hooked up at the CCM shoot. Seven years later, they end up on the same flight from New York City to Las Vegas.

    Summary

    Ilya says nothing for a long minute just watching him, drinking him in, and then he leans in and whispers, "You come to my city wearing those glasses and I do not get a call, a text, a fucking email..."

    Shane's body freezes and then he turns, eyes wide and bright in the club lights.

    "Ilya."

    And then a slow, almost sloppy smile creeps across his face.

    "You found me."

    Ilya cocks an eyebrow, "You thought I would not?"

     

    or

    Shane ends up in Boston during the off-season later in their situationship for a Bachelor Party. He doesn't tell Ilya, but Marly spots him at one of the clubs and sends Ilya a picture.

    When Ilya shows up at the club and finds Shane, he learns Shane wanted this all along.

    Summary

    “Ilya, what are we gonna do?” Shane says.

    Ilya finishes whatever he has been doing on his phone, and tosses it gently to the bed beside him. He crosses the room to Shane, stands in front of him, squeezes into his shoulders with his big hands, rubbing them like he means to warm them up.

    “Looks like we will have a little vacation,” he says, with a big obnoxious grin.

     


     

    Boston and Montreal are sent to Paris to play against each other in an exhibition series in January 2017. Ilya and Shane decide to stay in Paris for one more night. Just one more night, so they can talk. Maybe finally understand each other.

    They aren't expecting a volcano to erupt in Iceland and close all the airspace in Europe, leaving them stranded there. Together.
