    Summary

    Ilya pulls back first, breathing hard, eyes blazing down at Shane. He drags a thumb across Shane’s swollen lips. “Is your first time with a man?”

    Shane huffs a wrecked laugh, chest rising and falling fast. “Definitely not.”

    Ilya’s grin is sharp and almost feral. “Good. I want to hear you.”

    Shane is a year younger than Ilya and they play for the same team.

    But what if Shane was a bit wilder, less afraid to experiment sexually, and a bit more of a typical ice hockey guy?

    Get ready for teammates to friends to friends with benefits to lovers.

    (Please note that while Shane/Hayden are tagged it’s not because they’re dating, it’s because they’re 18/19 and a little bit curious and I’m a believer in over-tagging. Also from Ch4 out it’s full of explicit sex so if that’s not for you then I am sorry.)

    Summary

    “There is a girl here I like very much. Svetlana.”

    Shane tries not to react to that. “Oh.”

    “She’s old friend. From Russia. Her father was famous goaltender of Soviet team. She knows everything about hockey,” Rozanov continues.

    “Cool.”

    “She likes you very much.”

    His patience snaps. What kind of fucking game is Rozanov trying to play? He was the one to enforce this casual relationship to begin with, and then he goes and invites Shane over to his house, tells him to stay over, and then wants to talk about women he likes? No, Shane can take a lot, but he doesn’t want to be jerked around like this.

    So before he can convince himself out of it, he says, “Can I have her number, then?”

    Rozanov blinks a few times. “What?”

    Gotcha, asshole. “You said she likes me, so.” He shrugs as casually as he can manage like it’s no big deal. “Unless you two are…?”

    “No, no, nothing like that,” Rozanov says quickly. “We are old friends, but nothing like that now.”

    “…So I can have her number?” Shane pushes. He probably shouldn’t. “Unless it’d be weird—”

    “Okay yes, I can—I will text to you,” Rozanov says.

    Summary

    Summary

    The light in Jean's eyes was familiar this time, and growing more so by the day. Jeremy had been right on the mark with his initial assessment of satisfaction and pride; But if what he saw in Jean stroking over the detail of a brand-new motorbike was hunger? Then the expression faced towards him now was that of a starved man in front of a feast he had zero intentions of sharing. And God, did it look good on him.

    Or- Jean is finally allowed to own things, and it's no secret that he's relishing in it. Jeremy happily considers himself one of those things, and indulging his boyfriend's possessive streak gets him railed on Jean's new bike, wearing nothing but Jean's new leather jacket, and professing exactly who he belongs to over and over.
