Summary
“How do I work the coffee machine,” Ilya says tonelessly, more plea than question.
“You don’t work the coffee machine,” Svetlana tells him, words coming slowly. She looks confused, sounds bewildered, and Ilya does not have time for this.
“I need to make a coffee,” he hisses, gaze flicking back to the man at the counter, lost in his phone, “for the love of my life.”
Svetlana’s eyebrows jump up. “Excuse me?”
Or, Ilya just wants a break. Shane just wants a coffee. Somehow, they find each other.

Summary
The first time they hooked up, Rozanov had kissed him before Shane got on his knees. They kissed when Scott Hunter was in the room next-door. And they kissed slowly and sweetly, on his apartment stairway, after Rozanov had taken his world apart and put him back together again. Hell, even in that bathroom, where he felt as if the Russian was trampling on his bared soul, Rozanov had kissed him.
So why was it different this time? What did he do wrong?
Shane aches with how much he wants—needs the other man. There is a hollow numbness in his chest every time he thinks about those golden curls and ocean eyes, and he hates himself for wishing he could have more.
---
Wanting Hollander is dangerous, because Ilya is wanting more than he’s allowed to have. But Ilya keeps wanting more and more, because he is vain, selfish, undisciplined. He wants to have Hollander in his arms, sweet, warm, and gorgeous.
And he will always regret it later, in the quiet moments that come in the aftermath, in the small and lingering ache that follows him once they are apart.
Or: Shane spirals and avoids Ilya post-Vegas. Ilya chases after him, and they talk.

Summary
Shane Hollander is the number two overall NHL draft pick and a newly minted Montreal Voyageur. He’s also laser focused on his goals: being the best by beating the best. For him, this means a continued rivalry with number one draft pick—and new Ottawa Centaur—Ilya Rozanov. But when a problem with Rozanov’s immigration paperwork threatens his future in the NHL, what does that mean for Shane’s own career? He can’t risk finding out…so they get married. Just for immigration. A fast, practical, mutually beneficial solution.
No one will ever suspect, let alone find out, that the NHL’s greatest rivals are secretly married. And there’s certainly no risk of feelings getting involved. They have a game plan.

Summary
“You were drunk. I know it didn’t mean anything. Everything’s alright.”
Buck visibly winces. “That’s not — Eddie.”
There’s a suspended moment where Buck looks torn, standing on the edge of something, eyes fixed on the horizon to avoid looking at the drop, the precipitous canyon below. But then Buck, who can’t lie, who would tear his own chest open to a complete stranger on the street because the truth of him spills so loudly out of every jagged edge, sighs out:
“It meant something.”
There’s a ringing sound somewhere in the distance, getting closer. “What are you…” Eddie trails off.
“I wasn’t — well, I was drunk. But that wasn’t what. Wasn’t why. Not entirely, or — god.” Buck shudders in a breath, steeling himself. “I have feelings for you.” He closes his eyes. “I’m so sorry.”
~
Buck confesses his feelings. Eddie’s straight. If he spends all his time thinking about Buck and looking at Buck and wanting to be around Buck, well, that’s just being a good friend, isn’t it? He’s being so normal about this, actually.

Summary
"If Buck had stumbled upon Some Like it Hot a year ago, he would probably have either been arrested for loitering without buying anything or in massive credit card debt by now. As it stands, he’s been in enough in the last three months to get a double eyebrow raise from his accountant.
When Kevin had asked why Buck had spent the equivalent of a small country’s GDP at a random coffee shop at least five miles out of the way of the studio, his gym, or the homes of anyone he knows, Buck had said the coffee was just that good. Which wasn’t strictly a lie, if you only count the first time he’d gone in."

Summary
“I’m not having someone over,” he cuts in with a scoff.
A scoff.
Like the mere idea is preposterous.
“Then why do you want me to leave?”
“Because you’re gay!” Buck exclaims, accompanying his high-pitched statement with a hand gesture.
Eddie blinks.
Buck blinks back.
“I’m gay therefore I can’t… stay in?” Eddie asks, eyebrows raised in utter confusion.
or, Eddie comes out, Buck's a good friend about it.

Summary
It’s a disaster. There’s nothing for Eddie to do now but rip the Bandaid off.
“I’vebeenlookingatyourGooglehistory,” he says, all at once.
Buck blinks. “You’ve been what?”
“I’ve been—” Eddie breaks off with a huff, and then forces his eyes back up to Buck’s. “I went to the Google home page,” he starts again. “To search the thing about the coupling nut. But then when I clicked on the search bar, the recent history was not mine, because—”
A look of comprehension has begun to dawn on Buck’s face, suddenly.
“Because I was logged in on the iPad,” he says slowly.
- in other words: the slow-moving catastrophe of buck and eddie sharing a search history.

Summary
“Okay, Buckley, you’re laughing a little too hard at that,” Eddie says, sounding offended. “You don’t think I’d be a good boyfriend?”
“I didn’t say -” Buck tries to defend himself, but Eddie barrels right through it.
“You saying I wouldn’t treat you right?” Eddie stands and puts his hands on his hips, because apparently it’s that serious. “Let me tell you something, Buck, I’d blow your mind.”
When Buck jokingly says he wouldn't date Eddie, Eddie sets out to prove he'd be an amazing boyfriend. Platonically, of course, because they're just best friends. And nothing more.
or, Buck and Eddie are both deeply in love and deeply stupid

Summary
"Your belly…" Eddie sighs.
"God, Buck. At the barbecue, when your shirt rode up and you laughed like you were glowing from the inside out, beer in one hand,I couldn’t take my eyes off you. I didn’t want the party. I wanted this. I wanted to press my face right here…" He does exactly that, lays a kiss just beneath Buck’s navel, then another, then licks a broad, wet stripe across his lower stomach. Buck trembles.
"…And kiss the sunlight off you." Eddie grinds down, his cock still trapped in shorts, Buck’s skin hot beneath him, and moans into the contact, overwhelmed.
"I could come just like this." He breathes. "Grinding on your belly, tasting your skin, feeling you under me. You make me lose every fucking thought, Buck. You make me ache."
Or, Tommy makes remarks about Buck’s body, which leads Buck to start skipping meals, hoping to slim down. But Eddie steps in and shows Buck just how much he truly loves the way Buck looks now.

Summary
Buck cautiously peers into the small opening, catching a glimpse of Eddie staring at himself in the mirror, fingers gripping the edge of the porcelain sink as he shakes his head and says, “I can’t believe I’m in love with a Buckley.”
It's a miracle Buck doesn’t pass out on the spot.
He takes a stumbling step back into Eddie’s room, somehow managing to close the door quietly in his haze. Although it’s entirely possible that he just slammed it because he can’t hear anything over the whooshing in his ears.
He doesn’t know how he didn’t see it before.
Eddie is in love with Maddie.

Or, 5 times Buck thinks Eddie is in love with Maddie, +1 time he's sure he's not.

Summary
He’s so close. But Buck’s face sways even closer, eyes laser-focused on Eddie’s mouth, like he wants to ensure that what he whispers next make its way inside:
“The quiet, closeted catastrophe of Edmundo Diaz—performed nightly for an audience of none.”
Eddie flinches like the words hit skin. For a second, all the noise in his head goes silent, leaving gaping awareness and the awful, naked feeling of being seen.
“W-what—” Eddie’s voice cracks and he’s trying to frown, trying to be mad, but he feels exposed, so his words come out broken, quiet and confused. “What’s that supposed to mean?”
