Summary
“Russians don't get sick, Hazy” Ilya says.
Wyatt doesn't laugh. If anything, his eyes narrow further, tracking the way Ilya’s hands are trembling slightly as he reaches down to tighten his skates. “Yeah, well, this Russian looks like he's about to faint."
Or Ilya Rozanov is fine. He is completely fine. It doesn't matter that his limbs feel like lead, his throat feels like sandpaper, or that he had to swallow two Advil dry just to get out of the house. He can handle a morning practice. But his body doesn't care about his stubbornness, and when the rink begins to tilt beneath his skates, Ilya realizes that maybe russians do sometimes get sick.

Summary
“Mmf.” Ilya rolled over, digging up from the blankets. “Shaanee..”
He sounded more nasally than he did on the norm’. Shane walked over to the bed, stepping over some crunched up tissues to get to it. “Hey, hey… how are you?”
“I am dead.” He grunted, pushing himself up against the headboard, just slightly. He reached out and took Shane’s hand, bringing it to his face that was molten to the touch.
Or: Ilya Rozanov bails out on going to one of his home games… that’s how you know it’s bad. Shane takes up the duty of taking care of him.

Summary
Being a professional athlete in a contact sport is an exercise in enduring pain. Sometimes you get benched for three weeks because you have a broken cheekbone after you get hit in the face with a slap shot. Sometimes you play through a strained quad, a bruised shoulder, a mild fever. Most times, it’s just the constant, unending soreness that comes with pushing your body to its limit every single day. Every athlete had an injury they hated most, though, one that’s particularly painful or recurrent or just annoying.
Ilya fucking hated injuring his ribs. There is almost nothing you can do with your body that doesn't involve moving your torso, and the pain is deep, throbbing, and gets just a tiny bit worse every time you breathe. Sitting up hurts, lying down hurts, walking hurts, and worst of all, coughing fucking hurts.
or
Ilya is sick and injured in the off-season. Luckily, Shane loves him so very much and is there to take care of him.

What happens when the body releases years of tension?

So why does he suddenly feel like he’s dying?
