Summary
Maybe if the video ended there, Shane thought, it would be okay. Okayish. Still incriminating. Still a fucking disaster. Still embarrassing, to have his breakup with this beautiful actress filmed and disseminated on Reddit of all fucking places, but not a nail in his coffin, burying him alive. But the video didn’t end there.
“Can I ask if you’ve ever been with another guy?” she had to ask.
And he, tears visible in his eyes, had to nod.
Just once. Just a single nod.
Why did he have to nod?
“Have you ever told anyone that before?” He shook his head. “Was it different? With a guy?”
“Of course.”
Of course.
“Was it better?”
“Yes.”

Shane’s conversation with Rose is secretly recorded. Months later, after the All-Star game and Ilya’s confession in Russian, the video gets leaked online. Shane is outed to the world while Ilya is in Russia, and must now finish the 2016-2017 season with the entire world in on his secret.

Summary
Shane wears glasses to one of Ilya's games and achieves exactly what he set out to do.
“You know exactly what you are doing, Hollander. Playing dirty is not like you.”
Shane gives him another virtuous look. “I don't know what you are talking about, Rozanov. Hayden and I just wanted to see how you guys were playing before our game.”
“Oh, and that is why you wore your slutty little glasses? To see the game better, huh?”

Summary
Ilya knows he shouldn’t text. He told himself he wasn’t going to. What was the point? Have Hollander reject him directly again? This time in writing so he can reread it constantly instead of just replaying it back in his head? As fucking if.
And yet. And yet, he scrolls through his messages to find his thread with ‘Jane’.
Lily: It was not meant as a suggestion.
Jane: ?
Jane: What are you talking about?
Lily: When I said I never hear about you with women. Was not intended as a suggestion to change.

Summary
Shane pulls back, carefully cradling Ilya’s face. “Maybe we shouldn’t.”
“You don’t want to?” Ilya’s eyes are bottomless; swimming with grief. He says it like he really means, You don’t want me?
“That isn’t what I mean,” Shane says gently, brushing his thumb over Ilya’s cheekbone. Ilya’s eyes flutter shut, as if being treated so tenderly causes him physical pain. Like he isn’t used to it. “You’re hurting. I don’t want you to regret it in the morning.”
Ilya’s eyes open. “I have never regretted a moment with you.”
