Summary
“Why do you smell like violets?”
Unfortunately, the question makes Maria sit up in surprise, pulling her away from his chest enough so that she can turn and face him. “How the fuck did you know it was violet?”
He laughs at her clear shock—he fucking loves when he can manage to surprise her—and attempts again to pull her closer. “What, a guy can’t know his flowers? Am I too macho to know my flora and fauna?”
“No, no, I just—I thought it was lavender.”
“Lavender? You don’t know what lavender smells like? Lavender’s way stronger!”
“Oh, excuse me. All my years in law, and I didn’t know it was a crime to not know the fucking difference between violet and lavender.”
“I’m just sayin’! They ain’t even related.”
“Oh, fuck off, they ain’t even related.” Maria’s imitation of his accent, as always, makes him huff out a laugh. “That’s what you sound like! They’re both purple!”
“The fuck does that gotta do with how they smell?”
“Fuck off, Tommy Miller,”
(maria and tommy discuss flowers, remember sarah, and say i love you for the first time.)

Summary
Maria pushes aside any positive feelings she’s had about this day and this man, meeting his eyes coldly. She tries not to think about how not even ten minutes earlier, Tommy was watching her scream for her life, dangling from a goddamn tree.
“This isn’t an invitation,” she starts, voice unyielding and stern. “We’re talking you to somewhere where our people can make a decision on you. So you’re officially on probation, Tommy Miller. You steal anything, you’re out. You fuck with anyone, you’re out. We find out you’re still with the Fireflies, and you’re dead. You do anything at all to put my people in danger, and I will make sure to shoot you myself. Am I understood?”
Shockingly enough, Tommy just smiles—it’s a small, soft grin, boyish aimed straight at her. Either he was left deranged from his injuries or a tried-and-true adrenaline junkie, because her threats only seem to intrigue him. “Yes, ma’am,” he says, voice deep and charming. “I understand you clear as day.”
(in which Maria meets Tommy, and Tommy meets Jackson)

Summary
Her father sat up even straighter, looking her straight in the eye. She remembers feeling that she would need to keep these next words with her forever, so she did:
“It doesn’t matter to me whether or not you’ll be great. You hear me, babydoll? I just want you to love it. Life’s nothing but hard work and other people, so you need to love what you do and who you do it with. You need to love how you live. If not, what you do just isn’t worth it.”a glimpse into Maria’s life Before and After 2003

when the world sees (we run toward each other) by pucksandpower
Fandoms: Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid

Summary
One security camera. One leaked video. One choice that changes everything.
Ilya Rozanov loses his country, his team, and his shot at Olympic gold in a single night. But he doesn’t lose Shane, and that makes all the difference.
A story about finding home in a person, not a place. About choosing love over legacy. And about winning the medal you never knew you needed, standing next to the one person who matters most.

Summary
"My point is that Rozanov, like, talks Shane down before he even realizes he’s panicking. He makes him snacks with fucking buckwheat in them and he even gets Shane to take a day off once in a blue moon. He’s an asshole,” Hayden says. “He’s obnoxious and rude and frankly, unpleasant. I’m not saying he’s a good guy. But he is a good husband.”
Or: 5 times Hayden defends Ilya behind his back, +1 time he defends Ilya in front of him

Summary
As Hayden stood up, Rozanov did too. “I will help him,” he said. “You relax, enjoy not going outside in the dark.”
Jackie sat back down with a smile. “Thank you, Ilya.”
As Hayden and Rozanov went outside, he couldn't help himself. “What, are you afraid of the dark?”
Rozanov made a sound similar to a scoff, leading Hayden to the car. “Try harder next time, Pike.” He dismissed the jab, but he didn't come up with one of his usual quick comebacks so Hayden counted it as a win for himself.
--
a year following the long game, the pike family heads to shane and ilya's cottage in ottawa to spend a week with them. hayden is forced into totally mundane situations with the man he can't stand, rozanov. during his time at the cottage, he begins to understand his best friend's husband

Summary
“You are early—”
Ilya stops dead in his tracks. Shane is standing there in the hall, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed.
He’s wearing Ilya’s Centaurs jersey. Not much else.
“Solnyshko,” Ilya says hoarsely. “What are you doing?”
Shane pushes off the wall and comes to greet Ilya with a long, filthy kiss, wrapping his arms around Ilya’s neck. Ilya’s hands seek his waist in return.
Shane’s voice is low against Ilya’s mouth. “Reminding you,” he murmurs, “of who the fuck you are.”
It was a tough loss in Boston. Shane knows how to make Ilya feel better.
