    Summary

    Shane made it back to the living room right as he clicked on Ilya’s contact, placing the phone against his ear and practically collapsing back onto the couch as the line rang.

    “Come on, come on, pick up, pick up, pick up,” he begged under his breath.

    Hayden watched him with silent concern.

    There was a beep over the phone, “Hi, this is Ilya; I will never listen to your voicemail.”

    Shane hung up and checked the time. It was barely early evening in Moscow; Ilya should’ve answered.

    He hit the call button again. This time, the beep was practically immediate.

    “Hi, this is Ilya-”

    He called again.

    “Hi, this is-”

    Shane hung up and buried his head in his hands. This couldn’t be happening.

    or

    Ilya is in Russia, instead of in bed next to Shane, when the FanMail video makes it to Twitter. The days that follow are filled with waiting, fear, running, and hope as both of them fight different battles, but with the same goal in mind: to be able to keep loving each other for years to come.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander has built himself around routine, his life blood is hockey. Struggling to understand his team off the ice and the people around him, he carves out a few silent hours to himself. It's just him and his skates. But the hard fought peace is fragile, like cracks in too thin ice. It only takes a slight impact to shatter. Shane is fighting to hold his team and himself together as everything comes crashing down around him.

    Someone hacks into Rose Landry's phone in a club, they then release the images of Shane's texts online and all hell breaks loose. Shane is left to pick up the pieces. Ilya makes some choices in the aftermath that change everything where as Shane decides to stop hiding and Ilya is a possessive asshole who makes it everyone else's problem. With far less reason to hide himself anymore, Shane begins to show more of who he really is behind the polite, media worthy façade. Maybe he can have both Hockey and Ilya. The world will just have to deal with it.
