Summary
When the unsentimental financial imperative of the NHL sees Shane traded to the Boston Raiders, he and Ilya are thrown into closer extended proximity than ever before. As they adjust to life as teammates, they are forced to contend with the nature of their relationship -and must answer for themselves: is it even a relationship at all?
____Sliding down the wall, Shane hunched over his untied sneakers, shoved on hastily when Coach had called him in for a meeting after morning skate.
“Boston wanted you specifically. I’ve already spoken to their GM. You’re flying this evening or tomorrow morning: I’ll confirm once the paperwork clears.”
“Mom,” Shane managed.
“Oh sweetie. I know, okay. Those fuckers, how dare they do this! Two fucking cups! Now all of a sudden they decide they want a reset and you’re going to fund it.”
Shane put his head between his knees and tried to breathe. God, Boston. They hated him there; it was so far away; he was fucking their captain.

Summary
Shane knew himself well enough to admit it, there were real feelings there. Complicated, messy, painful feelings.
And despite everything, despite the rejection, the distance, the confusion, he still craved him.
Craved the intimacy.
Craved the softness he had seen in flashes but never fully received.
Why couldn’t Ilya open up like this?
Why couldn’t he just… talk to him?
Because this, this right here with Hayden, was easy.
Shane looked at Hayden and couldn’t believe how natural it felt.
Why was it so hard to be like this with Ilya?
---
OR: Hayden finds Shane after the MLH Awards in Vegas where Ilya left him sub dropped and hurting. Hayden makes Shane feel better, and then things get complicated. Ilya's jealousy soars. He pushed Shane right into Hayden's arms, now he's gotta fight for him back. Ilya gets super possessive and there's some pretty spicy scenes.
*No threesomes, some Shayden and Hollanov action - gets VERY messy but happy ending!
