    Summary

    “I can always play poker,” Hollander says, far slower than he’d recited the stats. “What are you playing?”

    “Durak,” Ilya says when the others just look expectantly at him.

    After a beat, Hollander seems to muster up his courage. “Can I join?”


    Or: Five times people learn the still waters of one Shane Hollander hide a veritable card shark, and one time Ilya gets to see a different side.

    Summary

    “My angel,” Mike murmurs. “My baby. I’ve got you.”

    And look, Mike knows, okay? He knows he’s sappy. Knows that he maybe overdoes it a little with the soft, syrupy names. But Will is the best thing that has ever happened to him. Mike doesn’t know how not to love him like this: loudly and over-the-top, all sweetness and gentle hands in the dark.

    Summary

    April 7th dawns like every other day, and it's not until Will throws a Kit-Kat at him that he realizes there's something amiss. He blinks the sleep from his eyes and stares up at where Will's standing, watching him with something like expectation in his face.

    "Happy Birthday," Will says. There's the faintest hint of a smile on his face, barely reaching his eyes.

    Mike blinks. Once, then twice, and when the third time brings no more clarity, he manages to force out a "What?"

    or

    Three birthdays where Mike's life is vastly different, but one thing always stays the same.

    Summary

    “You are my friend, Hayden, but he is the man I am going to spend to rest of my life with - he is the man that I love. I will choose him over you, every fucking time.”

    Over anything and everything, Shane would choose Ilya. Even over hockey, if it came to that. There’s no doubt in his mind, no question about it.

    Losing hockey would hurt, and Shane would grieve it, but it wouldn’t kill him. It would be an ache he could live with. Losing Ilya is not something that Shane could ever survive. They’re so tangled together - so intertwined - that to lose Ilya would be to lose himself.

    Summary

    Later, he’ll blame it all on a momentary lapse of judgement.

    He’ll blame it on the loneliness maybe—on the fact that, despite never having been physically closer to Shane this consistently in his entire life—that despite regularly getting dinner with Shane’s parents—that despite finally having found what he’d spend his entire life searching for he’s also, somehow, never felt more alone.

    He’ll blame it on Cliff not texting him back since he’d signed with Ottawa. He’ll blame it on Sveta, face pulled into a perpetual frown during every facetime call.

    Or maybe he’ll blame it on Anya—sweet, beautiful Anya—who’d been just a little too cute not to share.
