    Summary

    A second, then a blur. Ilya knocking over one of the kitchen island stools to engulf Shane. His shaking frame holding Shane so tight, Shane felt himself shaking back. He could only hold on back, just as tightly.
    “Please.” Came the strangled voice by his left ear. “Please, tell me.”
    And who was Shane to ever deny a wish of Ilya Rozanov.
    “I’m signing to Ottawa. Tomorrow. If you would want to come with.”
    And then Ilya was shoving him back, holding him close to his face. “Of course. I drive. Of course I come.”
    Or
    Shane, fed up with Montreal, signs to Ottawa before their relationship is revealed. While he doesn't plan on keeping that a secret for long, he asks Ilya to let him get to know the team first, before they come out. To maybe have a normal season. Meanwhile, the rest of the Centaurs are going crazy trying to figure out what is going on between their captain and Shane Hollander and why they keep showing up in the same car??

    Summary

    In 2016, Shane walks out of Ilya’s house, ending their years-long situationship.
    In 2024, Ilya watches ESPN as hockey legend and 5-time Stanley Cup winner Shane Hollander comes out and retires.
    -
    It has been sixteen years since they met as teenagers in that cold, grey parking lot. It has been eight years since they last kissed. It has been four years since his phone last buzzed with a message notification from Jane.

    Ilya is 33 years old, he has only been in love once, with the man who is currently on his television screen, and he still has no idea how to be fucking normal when it comes to Shane Hollander.

    Summary

    In 2006, the Hollander family billeted a player to the Ottawa 67s - Ilya Rozanov, a 15 year old Russian Bostonian with a hockey talent to rival Shane's.
    Years later, they’d once again share a team, and a home: Boston College.

    “Why did you choose Boston? It’s not like you couldn’t have gone anywhere else.”
    Shane remembered his surprise at Ilya’s commitment. The college didn’t exactly fit Ilya’s predisposition.
    Ilya looked thoughtful for a second, underneath the tumult.
    “Other than the obvious? I don’t know. I think I just felt like this place was where I was meant to go.”
    Shane understood that.
    Ilya nudged him. "Now you. Why are you here, Canadian boy?”
    The corner of Shane’s lip raised, and he shrugged.
    “I wanted to be more than hockey. At least, for a little while longer.”
    Ilya’s eyes locked on him, and a small smile reset the lines of Ilya’s face. “You couldn’t have done that in Canada?”
    Shane laughed lightly. “Sure, but Canada didn’t have you.”
    Ilya looked down at the ground, and didn’t look back up as he spoke.
    “The NHL didn’t have you.”
