Summary
“They are so pretty. Pretty freckles on pretty boy and I want….”
Shane can’t breathe. Holy fuck he can’t breathe, every fucking fantasy he’s had since he was seventeen is right in front of him and he doesn’t know what to do.
“What…” licks his lips and watches as Rozanov leans forward, like he can’t help but try to be closer, “What do you want?”
A smile, slow and wicked, sharp canines that Shane wants at his throat.
“I told you, to be boyfriend.”
Or: Shane has come out as gay, and Ilya isn't going to let that opportunity pass him by.

What the future holds for us. by Spooky123

Summary
I’m really bad at summaries, but basically this takes place after Tuna Melt Gate. Shane and Ilya are still denying themselves any chance at happiness and refusing to admit how they really feel about each other. Everything is canon up until that point, but afterward Ilya falls into a really dark place and almost follows the same path as his mother. (Nothing graphic is described, but please take care of yourselves.)
Before that future can happen, their children somehow travel back in time and show up on Ilya’s doorstep, terrified and desperate to stop it. While Shane and Ilya are trying to figure out how these kids even exist, it slowly becomes clear that the future they come from seemed like one of those fantasies that you felt wouldn't come true lucky for them this isn't the case :)
first fic ever lwk nervy..
(This is not discontinued, I've been extremely busy lately, I will try to get the new chapters out by Wednesday! Thank you for your patience.)

Summary
“You know, I don’t think we’ve actually said more than five words to each other since, um… since the last time.”
“The last time? I don’t think I remember. I guess it’s been so long.”
Ilya was lying straight through his teeth. He remembered every moment of that afternoon like it was yesterday: remembers the elation of letting the cry of “Shane” pass through his lips and the crack in his voice as he begged “Hollander”. He had been sitting on that couch, with the taste of tuna and cheese stuck to the inside of his mouth and a puddle drying on his stomach, for the last thirteen years. But he couldn’t say that.
He needed Shane to tell him. Needed somebody — the only other person in the world who knows what happened that day — to confirm he wasn’t crazy, that he didn’t imagine the whole thing. That there had been something real, even if just for a millisecond. He needed somebody to tell him back the story he’d been picking apart with a magnifying glass for the better part of two decades.
—
The tuna meltdown was really, truly the end — until a series of unfortunate run-ins force Shane and Ilya to face the memories that have been torturing them for nearly fifteen years, and face each other.

Summary
Ilya let out a quiet laugh, shaking his head. “I want to be perfect for you, Shane. To make up for all the time we lost.”
“I don’t want perfect,” Shane said quietly, stroking Ilya’s cheek. “I want something real. Something that we fight to make work, because we want it so much. Because being together is so much fucking better than being without each other.”
***
Ten years ago, Shane and Ilya loved each other in secret and let each other go anyway.
Now Shane, captain of the Ottawa Centaurs, is a single dad to four-year-old Ollie, and good at pretending he doesn’t think about the man he lost when they were younger and terrified of the fallout of being caught. Then one chance meeting turns into drinks, lingering looks, old feelings, and suddenly Ilya Rozanov is everywhere again.
Some things, it turns out, never really leave you.
As Shane and Ilya fall back into each other’s lives - and into something softer, steadier, and openly theirs this time — they realise maybe they’re finally ready for the life they used to dream about.
Or: two hockey players who were each other’s first love reconnect ten years later and slowly build the family they always wanted.

Summary
When hockey legend Shane Hollander is traded from Montreal to Boston in a middle-of-the-night deal, the entire NHL is shocked to their core. The news makes national headlines, and if Dr. Rozanov had time to read the news, then he would’ve seen it. Then maybe he wouldn’t have been so surprised when a concussed Shane Hollander rolls into his Boston ER.

The Loon Call by addict_writer for Thelibrarian (Wadjilicious)

Summary
In the summer of 2017, Shane discovered his body could carry a baby.
In the autumn of 2017, fear pushed Ilya out of Shane’s life.
In the spring of 2018, Shane lost himself.
Also in the spring of 2018, Ilya fled the country under unknown circumstances.
In the summer of 2028, life brought Ilya back to where he least expected to find himself.
But now he has a secret, he has to guard with his life and his freedom.
Secrets, lies, buried truths come to light slowly. The loon calls never sounded lonelier or scarier.
---
This story features mature themes, mental health issues, suicide attempt, delicate context around birth problems, and yes, male pregnancy mentioned with complications.
The idea of the story was inspired by a post from our Spreadsheet Queen (Wadjilicious), who mentioned a crossover between Heated Rivalry and Wuthering Heights. You need to see the vision and the general idea for this to make sense. I hope you see it.
I’ll be the first to say that I had a different approach in mind, but Ilya took over and chaos ensued.Bookmarked by Imaginary_reader

Summary
“You like this.” Ilya said more like a statement than a question.
“Like what?”
“When I said that this is something serious.”
Shane blushed and looked away.
Ilya gently grabbed Shane's chin and brought his face up to meet Ilya’s eyes.
“I like it too.”
OR
Shane and Ilya don’t hook up until a little later on in their story, but not for lack of trying or interest. When they do finally get together, things move faster and feelings are expressed sooner. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t difficult moments to overcome on the path to their happy ending.
This story is an exploration of a completely alternative timeline in the Hollanov love story—using a combination of the show and the original Heated Rivalry and Long Game books. There will be pining, yearning, big emotional moments, and angsty roadblocks. With, of course, a very happy ending for our boys.

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 to come here? It’s not like you couldn’t have gone anywhere else.”
Shane remembered his surprise at Ilya’s commitment. The calm of Boston College didn’t exactly fit Ilya’s predisposition.
Ilya looked thoughtful for a second, underneath the tumult on his face. “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. After all, he’d felt the same way.
Ilya gently nudged him with his elbow. "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 shrugged again. “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.”- Language:

Summary
“I’m late,” Ilya finally says.
“Oh! Yeah, of course, I’m sorry. It was good to see you, man.”
Man. It’s patronizing.
“You too.”
Shane searches his face for a second, eyebrows creased slightly, face an open book just like before. Ilya tries to push past him, tries to see how fast he can forget that this encounter ever happened, but Shane stops him at the last second.
“Can I give you my number?” he asks, already digging in his pocket for his phone. “We should catch up.”
Ilya doesn’t want it. He really doesn’t want it. Shane is being polite. He’s being a good boy. He’s saying exactly the type of things you’re supposed to say when you run into someone you haven’t seen in years.Nine years after Ilya decided to end things with Shane, he runs back into him. Shane is working as a hockey commentator, while Ilya is married to Svetlana and living in the US as a retired hockey player. Although he knows he shouldn't, he allows himself to get to know Shane again.

Summary
“I’m tired,” the little girl complains, skating from the group to hug Hollander’s knees.
Hollander huffs a quiet laugh. “Grandma will be here soon,” he says, picking her up, sitting her perfectly on his hip. She lays her head on his shoulder, and they look so alike, it's startling.
“Is that—Hollander,” Ilya says with disbelief. Hollander freezes, turning to look at Ilya. His brown eyes are wide, and he looks just as surprised as Ilya feels. “Is that your daughter?”
__Shane abruptly quits hockey and disappears off the face of the earth without a trace. When Ilya moves to the Centaurs, the last person he expects to see is Shane teaching a bunch of kids how to skate and play hockey with his daughter in tow.
