    Summary

    “I want to speak with my brother.”

    Shane doesn’t give a single shit about what Alexei Rozanov wants, frankly. He crosses his arms over his chest. “Pretty sure your brother doesn’t want to talk to you.”

    Alexei grits his teeth, blowing a frustrated breath out of his nose. “Is, uh, family. Family thing.”

    “Ilya’s my family,” Shane says coolly, raising both brows challengingly, “not yours. Not anymore.”

    Or: Ilya's brother shows back up after more than a decade of silence. A happy family reunion looks very different.

    Summary

    Wyatt was not, like, nosy. For sure, he was interested. He was curious. He engaged with people, obviously, because most people were interesting and engaging and had cool thoughts and said neat stuff if you asked.

    So, no. Wyatt wasn’t nosy, but he wasn’t stupid, either.

    Summary

    “You didn’t like it the last time we tried it,” Shane said.

    Ilya gave a one-shouldered shrug. “Was years ago. Maybe it is an acquired taste, like licorice.”

    “You also don’t like licorice,” Shane pointed out.

    “Yes, but I keep trying it because Luca likes it so much.”

    “And then you make a face and tell him how awful it is.”

    “When have I ever told you your dick is awful?” Ilya said, looking mildly offended. “I am its number one fan.”

    Summary

    They lapse back into a comfortable silence. Shane looks at Ilya as he is and thinks about Ilya as he was at seventeen, smoking in the back of a Saskatchewan parking lot. The image is almost unbearably tender for Shane, where his own seventeen year old thrill at seeing Ilya Rozanov meets all the things Shane knows about that lonely boy now.

    Shane thinks: Do you love number 81 more than you love this man?

    "Hey," Ilya says, brushing his knuckles over Shane's cheek. "Whatever I do, I will be there when you come home."

    Ilya decides to retire. Shane is very normal about it.

    The road to the Stanley Cup is fraught with expectations, injuries, and worst of all, conversations about feelings.
