    Summary

    Shane thought about it, a lot more than he should've. And it showed. It showed in the way he'd begged Ilya to sell his Ducati the summer they got married. It showed in the number of times he'd had to calm his racing mind when Ilya took twenty minutes longer than expected at the grocery store.

    It showed in his heaving breaths, now. He was sitting up in his bed, his husband sleeping peacefully next to him, and he felt like he was on the edge of a panic attack.

    The plane didn't crash, and Ilya didn't die.

    Shane still feels the aftershocks.

    Summary

    There had been a tragedy. The Ottawa Centaurs' plane had crashed in northern Georgia, during the course of their flight from Carolina to Tampa. They didn't know much else yet. All NHL activities were suspended for the next seven days.

    Wait, what?

    At seventeen, Shane Hollander met the love of his life. At twenty-nine, gravity took him away.

    Shane wishes he’d died, too.

    Summary

    “What? Hollander too scared to face me?” Ilya chirps, because if he goes another minute without at least mentioning the man that has been consuming his every thought for two weeks he might go insane. He needs someone else to acknowledge his existence, his absence, to fucking tell him what’s going on so he can finally get it off his mind. It’s just a stupid mystery. That’s why it bugs him.

    And then Hayden Pike looks up. Dark bruised circles under his eyes, face pale like a sheet, eyes red rimmed and puffy like he has been crying all day. The face of a man mourning.

    Ilya feels like the ice might crack under him. Something’s wrong with Shane.

    ***

    Set pre-Tuna melt: something has happened to Shane Hollander, but of course no one is telling his life long rival what happened.

    Beautiful short story. Pre tuna-melt. Shane gets kidnapped, shennanigans ensue. Very fun, light angst.
    Was a good fun time.

    Summary

    In the months between Sochi and Vegas 2014, Shane Hollander decides he’s done watching Ilya from a distance.
    He stops waiting.
    Told through alternating POV, this fic explores what happens when Shane moves on, and what it does to Ilya to realize he doesn’t get to decide where Shane stays.
    It was never just sex. It was never just a game.
    And when Shane finally chooses steadiness, it changes the rules.
    And who is that man?

    OR

    Shane is trying to build something honest.
    Ilya is trying not to lose him.
    And the silence they used to live inside is no longer an option.

    filled with angst. slow burn.
