Summary
Hayden looks up and catches sight of Shane, thumbs hooked in his belt loops to leave the logo on his chest clear. “No. Shane. No. Get out.”
“You like it?”
“Please, please tell me that’s not—”
Shane spins to show off the back. “Authentic.”
“No,” Hayden says, drawing out the word plaintively. “In my house?”Shane wears Ilya's jersey to watch the game at Hayden's.

Summary
“What do you need?” he asks, because he doesn’t know what else to do. “Tell me what to do. I got you, brother.”
Shane swallows hard. His chest feels like it’s collapsing inward.
“Call Ilya?” he manages, voice thin. “Please?”
(ie. set during the long game - shane has a panic attack after a game and ilya helps him)

And I'll never go home again by Ampersand24

Summary
“What do we do?” Shane mumbled, the words spoken into his lap, “They’ll terminate my contract, they won’t let me play again,”
Regardless of what he said, the footage remained, living behind his eyes— a relentless, looping image that haunted his peripheral vision. It haunted him like a bad replay on arena screens; blown up, pixelated, and stripped of all context.
The original, quiet intimacy was gone, replaced by a voyeuristic nightmare, where every single frame flattened something sacred into something cheap and consumable.
─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───
What if Shane hadn't been seriously hurt in that game against Boston and Ilya had ended things? What if 3 years later, Vegas footage was leaked?

Summary
His next thought was irrational. Stupid, really. But maybe… maybe it was alright if he took just one. A real picture. Besides, no one would ever see it but him, and Shane would never have to know. Not if Ilya never told him about it.
Knowing he can't have Shane the way he wants, Ilya keeps a secret picture of him, soundly asleep in Ilya’s bed after a hookup.

Summary
Shane rested his forehead against Ilya’s, closing his eyes. “I’m gonna ride you, is that okay?”
Ilya nipped at his bottom lip. “I don’t know, let me think. This is same as asking me, is Shane Hollander the best hockey player in the world? Obviously yes.”
And oh, the honest praise was all worth it for the private smile that lit up Shane’s face right then. He kissed Ilya once, slow and sweet. “Shut up,” he murmured, smiling into it. “You’re an asshole.”
Ilya was a little achy with how happy he was, such a wild contrast to his overwhelming grief only moments ago. “I finally admit you are better than me, and now I am an asshole? I think not, Hollander.” He gripped Shane’s hips and flipped them over, the sound of Shane’s breathy laughter while Ilya kissed him into the mattress like medicine for his soul.
Episode 5 in depth: the beach, the all-star game, and if Shane and Ilya made love in that hotel room before confessing their love.

Summary
“Why do I taste blood in your mouth, solnyshko?”
“I told you, my ex said it’s annoying when I’m too loud during sex. I guess it’s a habit. I bite my tongue sometimes so you won’t have to hear me that much.”
“And I told you, I need you to give me the name of this ex so I can kill him with my bare hands. Is very serious matter.”

Summary
Ilya Rozanov's in a little bit of a rut; juggling culinary school and his job at the pizza place leave him very little free time and excitement. He begins to get intrigued, however, when a strange order gets called into the pizza shop every Friday. Even more intriguing? The order is private with no name attached to it. As you might guess, the order belongs to none other than star Detroit Red Wings center Shane Hollander. And when they meet, sparks fly.
So does a glass of ginger ale. And so does Ilya.
It's not the prettiest start to a relationship. But not everything worthwhile is easy. Maybe Ilya can show Shane there's more to life than ordering the same weird pizza every week. And maybe Shane can show Ilya a thing or two...too.

Summary
Ilya loved the closing shift.
Until this fucking guy started coming in a 7:55 pm. Almost every single fucking day.
The first time it happened, Ilya was annoyed. He had just cleaned the espresso machine, and now he would have to redo it. 8:30! Ilya got out thirty fucking minutes late because of one guy!
But, it was fine. It was fine. Getting out late one time wasn’t that big of a deal.
Until it happened again. And again. And again. Until-
“Why the hell do you come in here so late?”
or
Ilya is a barista at a small local coffee shop. Shane is a doctor that annoys the fuck out of him. The annoyance turns into fondness; the fondness turns into lust. They fuck in the shop.

Often, Lately by AngelWithoutAShotgun

Summary
“Shane had been used to being alone. He'd never thought of himself as lonely. He honestly often craved the solitude, found it grounding. But that was before he knew what it was like to have someone to call, someone to touch. He was never lonely before Rozanov, but he'd been lonely ever since.”
April 2017: Shane does not get laid out on the ice.
Ilya goes through with ending it.
Shane lets him.
What follows is eleven months of distance, denial, and a quiet kind of devastation neither of them knows how to name, let alone fix.
They learn how to live without each other.
(Or at least, how to pretend.)
And then, almost a year later, the infamous collision happens and Shane goes down cold.
And suddenly, neither of them can pretend it doesn’t matter.

Summary
Hi. This is Ilya. I will never listen to your voicemail.
The greeting wasn’t a joke or an exaggeration—it was the truth. Shane leaves messages anyway, confessions to a digital void that will never judge him, and never push him away.
At least, that’s what he thinks.

Summary
"I just—I should be thankful we haven’t seen this side of him on home ice, eh?”
Ilya frowned at the comment. “What do you mean?”
“Shane’s captain voice is very different from his teammate voice.” Wyatt shrugged simply. “He’s a lot more proactive here. And louder. He sees everything and he doesn’t hesitate to point it out. But at home, he leaves that to you and Wiebe and Bood.”
OR
Shane has some scars from his time with Montreal that still linger. It takes Ilya a hot minute to stumble onto the fact, and just a little longer to confront it head on.

Summary
Shane is heavier than he used to be; his weight bears down on Ilya in a new way. He’s put on pounds of muscle since Ilya last touched him like this. Ilya flattens his palms, skims them under Shane’s undershirt, feels the flat solidity of his abs, the bulk of his lats, the swell of his chest. It’s the same and it’s new, this body; it’s the boy he couldn’t stop thinking about when he was 18 and the man he loved enough to let go at 26 and the person who somehow always comes to find him when he’s lost.
A stranger, and the love of his life.
—
or, Ilya's father doesn't die in 2017; Ilya breaks up with Shane instead of confessing his love. They get older, but not any less stupid about each other. Shane gets a boyfriend; Ilya gets on medication; they work on becoming whole people. And they always find their way back to each other.
OR a story for those who love Shane and Ilya's baby love but ALSO think it's hot when people in their thirties make active choices about who they are and what they want in their partner!!
Note: the "cheating" tag refers to the relationship between Shane and his aforementioned BF, not to Shane and Ilya cheating on each other.
