    Summary

    He closed his eyes briefly and felt Ilya’s hand lightly shake his own. “Shane?”

    He looked up at Ilya. Beautiful Ilya. Who had been so excited that the news was out. Who was ready to go public all these years while Shane had been a coward. Who was looking at him like he was a good person.

    Shane slowly unbuckled his seatbelt. The bubble had popped; a new reality was beginning. He offered Ilya a tight smile, and let himself be pulled from his seat.

    He didn’t want to leave the car.

    Or, Shane flees to the cottage after his and Ilya's relationship goes public.

    Summary

    “Shane, honey, I need you to take a breath, okay?” Yuna sighs through the phone. There’s a steady beep of Ilya’s heart monitor next to her and she watches it like a hawk as she listens to Shane break apart on the phone. She can hear him sobbing and gasping, wiping at his face but she knows there’s no stopping the tears at this point.

    When she looks at Ilya in the hospital bed it causes a pain in her chest. His blond curls were pushed back from his face and the sterile hospital lighting made him look pale and expressionless. Yuna ran her thumb over where she held his hand as she kept listening to Shane.

    “I just can’t believe it.” He cries and groans.

    (ie. ilya is in a bad accident while in ottawa and shane is out of town and not able to be there for him and it really puts things into perspective. set post-engagement during the long game.)

    Summary

    “You are my friend, Hayden, but he is the man I am going to spend the rest of my life with - he is the man that I love. I will choose him over you, every fucking time.”

    Over anything and everything, Shane would choose Ilya. Even over hockey, if it came to that. There’s no doubt in his mind, no question about it.

    Losing hockey would hurt, and Shane would grieve it, but it wouldn’t kill him. It would be an ache he could live with. Losing Ilya is not something that Shane could ever survive. They’re so tangled together - so intertwined - that to lose Ilya would be to lose himself.

    Summary

    Ilya always loved watching his mother skate; even years after retiring from the competitive circuit, she floated across the ice like there was no gravity. He learned axles and salchows under her graceful guidance, and once he'd learned everything Irina had to teach him, she passed Ilya on to the professionals.

    To move across the ice like it was effortless, fast but not aggressive, to throw himself through the air and pretend for a moment that nothing could bring him back to the ground; there was nothing like it.

    Sometimes he thought if he jumped high enough, turned his body just right, he'd figure out a way to hang there, caught in the moment between gravity and air; maybe, just maybe, he could stay airborne, never to return home.

    Sometimes he wonders if he could have found that height, if he could have saved her.

    Irina Rozanova died on a cold Wednesday.

    He'd found her lying there, cold hands curled around an empty bottle of pills.

    He quit hockey the next day.

    (Or: Ilya Rozanov is an Olympic figure skater. Shane Hollander is a professional hockey player. Somehow, they still figure it out.)
