    Summary

    Every Boston Raider knows that although their captain has a girl in every port, he’s got a soft spot for the one in Montreal. Dr. Shane Hollander knows it’s better to have a semi-regular source of casual sex than try to make a relationship work during residency. Ilya Rozanov knows that the doctor he’s fucking in Montreal is unaware that he plays hockey, and in fact probably thinks he’s Bratva.

    Summary

    Ilya ignored the request from the NHL twice. The first time they asked through his agent, the second time the director of marketing called his personal number directly. He never got along with the league as a player, and he certainly didn't need to make them happy now.

    The next attempt to reach him was harder to ignore. A phone call from an unknown number. A voicemail that made his blood run cold.

    "Hi Ilya. This is Rose Landry. We've never met, but Shane speaks so highly of you. I think the NHL has been trying to get in touch. Shane said you probably wouldn't talk to them. But...think about it, ok? I know it would mean a lot to him."

    The final request crumbled his resolve. The caller ID blinked "Jane," and Ilya stared at it.

    ***
    Canon divergence, Shane and Ilya are estranged for a decade. Shane finally reaches out to Ilya when he retires.

    Summary

    “Uh, actually,” Shane says. He clears his throat, picks at something on his shirt. “Actually, I’m…”

    “Daddyyyyyy! Make Ruby stop pushing me! Daddyyy!”

    “I’m, um…” Shane says.

    Hayden thinks maybe he can’t hear Shane over the girls screaming, because he keeps missing the rest of that sentence. “What?”

    “I’m gay,” Shane spits out. “So.”

    -----

    Shane comes out, first to his best friend, and then, in the first regular game of the 2017-2018 season, to the rest of his team.

    Summary

    Women flock to Rozanov; he’s the gravitational centre in every room. Shane gets it. He’s felt it, the shark pull of his orbit. He’s been swallowed up into the belly of desire. What he doesn’t get is how easy it is for Rozanov. Even with Shane’s teammates pooled around him on the dance floor his hands get clammy when a girl in a sequined skirt makes a move on him. Shane used to think maybe he was just awkward; maybe he needed a couple of beers in him to loosen up, but he couldn’t do that during the season.

    Then Ilya Rozanov kissed him and the craving was so clear in Shane’s mind he was able to visualise every sharp edge of it, and he knew he wanted to be on his knees.

    2013. It’s been two years since he and Rozanov hooked up in Nashville and exchanged phone numbers. It’s a month till Boston comes to Montreal and Rozanov’s promise of ‘next time’ could go into fulfilment. Shane Hollander wants to play hockey. He wants to play it well. The other thing is a thing he cannot allow himself to want.

    Summary

    “See you at the draft,” Rozanov smirks.

    “Uh,” says Shane. “Maybe?”

    Rozanov whips his head back to look incredulously at his new Canadian rival, only to meet the back of a black helmet as they’re both swept away by the handshake line.

    What the fuck?

     

    ---

     

    Fresh out of a loss against Russia in the 2008 Prospect Cup, Shane Hollander decides to take up a scholarship with McGill instead of getting drafted. It changes everything and yet nothing at all.

    Or, the story of how Shane chose the rigours of academia (for the loons) and Ilya is still a hockey player for Boston: a love story.
