Team Chaos
THIS DOESN'T LEAVE THE GROUP CHAT
I don't want to dox my own location online
This is JUST for us, okay?
You're sworn to secrecy.
You know how I live in the same building as Ilya Rozanov?
I just saw Shane Hollander of the Montreal Metros walking out of the building as I was walking in.
Casey
Omg Annie!!!
What's he even doing there???
Morgan
Are you sure it was him?
Montreal played in Boston tonight! I'm sure!
Casey
So, what, they're friends?
Morgan
Hmmm. Maybe. I dunno
He left at like 11
Morgan
That’s kinda late
I KNOW
Casey
Did you actually see them together, Annie?
No, but there's no one else in this building he could be here for
Casey
Okay so
They're probably secretly friendly
But let's keep an eye on it
Morgan
Loooooord that would be so hot
I'm going to spontaneously combust at the mere suggestion
Morgan
Quick let's look at every hockey highlight we can find of Montreal and Boston
Casey
That'll take a while.
They've been in the league for 5 years already!
Morgan
Really?
Casey
Yeah. Came up the same year. They were drafted together, 1&2.
Morgan
Omggggg
That's so cute
Morgan
Only would have been better if they were drafted to the same team
I knooooowwwwww
Casey
Nobody ever gets the #1 and #2 draft picks.
Morgan
Yeah yeah, we get it, you're the one who actually really knows hockey in this hockey group chat
Hey, I do too!
I'm in it for the hockey but also for the chaos
Morgan
Hahahaha fair. I'm in it for the chaos, but the hockey is growing on me
When's the next time Montreal plays in Boston? You could just camp out in the lobby chairs lololol
Casey
Not again here for more than a month. Know anybody in Montreal?
We've gotta get Montreal girlies in this group chat, STAT
Morgan
yeah but like the chaos girlies
Not just the hockey girlies
Obviously!!
I’m changing the name of the group chat!
But don’t tell anybody where I live. I don’t want people to know that
Morgan
Of course!
Casey
Yeah, it’ll be all about hockey and hollanov.
Hockey and Hollanov!!! That’s it!

Three weeks later
Hockey and Hollanov
Are you guys watching this game?????
Sammy
What game?
The Montreal-Boston game!!!!
Morgan
I told you, I'm in it for the chaos more than the hockey!
Alexis
This is the Rozanov vs Hollander game. This IS the chaos!
Morgan
What channel Annie?!!
ESPN!
Casey
I'm watching!
Sammy
I just turned it on!
Ella
I'm at the game!!!
Omg!!!
Ella
*photo*
NICE VIEW
Casey
Are you in the first row??????
Ella
Third!
Sammy
Can you hear them talking through the glass????
Ella
Not talking, but definitely when they yell!
Rebecca
I'm at the game too! Opposite side, way high up
Rebecca
*photo*
Casey
Perfectly centered, NICE
Rebecca
Always! My favorite seats, the birds eye view
Ella
We should meet up later!!!!
Rebecca
Yes! Between the periods!
Wow
Morgan
They're just staaaaaaaring at each other
Casey
Loooooong drawn out stare
Sammy
That, my friends, looks like foreplay
Alexis
The announcers are still talking like they're rivals who hate each other, they so don't get it!!!
You don't undress someone you hate with your eyes like that
Casey
Enemies to lovers AU????
Morgan
IT'S NOT AN AU IF IT'S REAL
no way they're enemies though! They're probably like at least best friends if not secretly in love
Ella
Ommmgggg they're talking at center ice!!!
Rebecca
What do you think they're saying???
Casey
Rozanov is smiling
Such a sexy smile
Sammy
What I wouldn't give to be that close to that smile
WHAT WAS THAT
Morgan
DID YOU SEE THAT
OOMMMGGGG
Morgan
WHAT DID HE JUST DO WITH HIS TONGUE
WHILE LOOKING AT SHANE HOLLANDER
Casey
WHAT DID WE JUST WITNESS
Rebecca
I missed it!!!!
Ella
I couldn't see it from here, what happened????
Rebecca
Omg I need to watch the TV feed later!
He took his mouth guard out and ran his tongue like along his teeth
Morgan
The chokehold that man has on me
Like that was so sexy
The chokehold that that man has on SHANE HOLLANDER
Casey
we can only wish we knew what it felt like to have Ilya Rozanov look at us like that.
SHANE KNOWS!
Morgan
I bet he knows a hell of a lot more than that

Two months later
HOLLANOV IS LIFE
Lily
I am the biggest hollanov shipper. I promise.
Morgan
No it’s meeeeee
I shipped Hollanov before you knew who they were Morgan!!!!
Casey
That’s true she did!
Lily
No I shipped them before any of you had heard of them
Maybe 2008
NO YOU DID NOT
Sammy
Had they even met then?!
Casey
They met at the World Juniors that year.
But how did you even know about them well enough to ship them then?
Lily
I told you
I am the biggest hollanov shipper
Casey
Was there even any information out there about them yet then???
Like I thought I knew everything about hockey, but I didn’t know that much about them in 2008!
Lily
I read everything about Shane
Every article
Before anyone else knew anything
I wanted to know eveeeerything
I NEEDED them to get together
I was dying for it
Alexis
I’m dying, of course you were XD
Every article about Shane?? Not Ilya?
Lily
I read those too ;)
Casey
But you love Shane best.
Lily
I love Shane very best
Morgan
The OG shipper I bow down
And I thought I was the OG shipper, I started the group chat
Lily
Thank you for group chat
I had no one to talk to about this before
Sammy
You were ALONE thinking about it for all those years?!
Well we know she read every fanfic!!!
Lily
Yes I did
Casey
All of them?!
Morgan
Did you read the one where they were secretly in Hayden Pike’s backyard?! That one KILLED ME DEAD a few years ago
Lily
;) ;) Oh yessss I liked that one. Was very funny and sexy.
Sammy
Of course you did
Morgan
What’s your favorite fanfic?
Lily
I like fanfic, but I mostly like the videos on youtube
The editors are so good!!!
Morgan
Ooohhhh then which is your favorite of those?
Lily
I like this one [link] because it’s set to Boston’s win song XD
Casey
You are the weirdest Shane stan I have ever met
Sammy
No, I love it
Alexis
I can’t believe that’s your favorite
Lily
Yes I am Shane’s #1 fan
But I also like Boston
It is our win song and Shane what’s not to like
XD XD XD
I CAN’T
I’ll watch though for real
Lily
Here’s my playlist of my favorite videos of Shane [link]
Morgan
Excited to watch!
Sammy
Do you have one for Ilya?
Lily
No, but I watch sometimes because he’s better MVP of hockey
I STILL CAN’T BELIEVE YOU SAID SHANE HAD A WEAK BACKHAND
Casey
Right?! One of the best players there is!
Lily
One of the best, yes. But not perfect. Has weaknesses.
Morgan
You tell em! (I don’t know enough about hockey to know hahaha)
Nothing about Shane’s game is weak Morgan!!! Don’t listen to her!
Casey
Are you overcompensating to try to pretend you don’t worship at Shane’s altar an unhealthy amount?
Because we already know, you can’t hide it!
Morgan
And we’re right there with you!
You don’t have to pretend to us!
Lily
Hahahaha I know
Okay, he is perfect
I like him very much
Casey
We know you do <3
Lily
No weak backhand
I KNEW IT
Lily
It was just fun to say
I knew you didn’t really think that!
Morgan
That’s my girl <3
Sammy
Okay good Lily remembered she loves Shane <3 <3
Lily
I did not forget!
I do not forget something like that
Casey
We all know you love Shane.
We all do!
Lily just loves him best
Lily
Yes <3

Alexis
So fucking glad it’s finally against Montreal!
Morgan
I wish every game were against Montreal
Where’s Lily, I bet she’s dying watching this one finally seeing Ilya play Shane
Casey
Lily never watches the Boston-Montreal games
Morgan
You’re right but she shooouuuld
Sammy

They’re the MOST FUN, I swear!
Ella
Some day you’ve gotta watch one with us
Morgan
HE JUST WINKED AT HIM
Rebecca
I swear he does it on purpose to drive us insane
I just KNOW he knows about the fanfic but I can’t prove it
Casey
Ilya Rozanov will be the death of all of us
Morgan
But what a sweet, sweet death it’ll be
Morgan
I’ll be happy to go that way
Sammy
Dying as I lived, in love with Ilya Rozanov
Except Lily, she’ll die over Shane
Morgan
LILY GET IN HERE
Ella
After the game we have to grill her on what death by Shane Hollander is like
Rebecca
I bet she’d go just as happily
Casey
Death by hollanov is the best way to go
Morgan
So who’s gonna win the game then?
Right!! The game!!!

Three months later
HOLLANOV IS LIFE <3
I can’t believe I live in Ilya’s building but I’ve never met him, life is so unfair
Lily
You live in Ilya’s building?
Uh yeah haha I do!
Casey
That’s how the group chat started!
Morgan
Back when there were only three of us!
Yeah, I saw Shane leave the building once after a game
Only once. Never saw him again.
Morgan
Maybe you don’t stay up late enough lol
Rebecca
They could be going aaaalllll night
Lily

Two days later
SECRECY ON PAIN OF DEATH
MORGAN. CASEY. THIS DOESN’T LEAVE THIS GROUP CHAT
Morgan
Omg Annie WHAT you made a new group chat like the original?!?! What’s the news!?
Casey
Do tell!!
So a couple of days ago I told the group chat I lived in Ilya’s building. I never said that before except to you two because I didn’t want to give away where I lived
But I fucking forgot it was supposed to be a secret
And I said it
Casey
Yeah, you told everyone.
Right, so after that I got this message from Lily
She wanted to meet up
I asked her before and she said no
So I was like awesome, FINALLY, we’ve been in the same city for like a YEAR and never met
Casey

So she wanted to meet at my apartment
Morgan

Casey

Casey
Okay!
So I wait in the lobby like we plan
It’s late, like 9:00. So it’s dark outside
Morgan

Morgan

Casey
SHE’S FUCKING OBSESSED WITH HIM

And sh once said “he’ll forgive me if I do the thing he likes with my tongue” LIKE IT WAS ALREADY SOMETHING HE LIKED
Morgan

Morgan
