    Summary

    Kevin Day does not know what to do next.

    It’s such an unfamiliar feeling, this uncertainty. He always knows what to do. Where to strike next. Who to pass to. What to say to the nosy reporter. What sore spot he has to poke for his teammates to scoff and leave him alone. What celebrities he should date next.

    Here, in the hospital room, with IV bags attached to him like strings to a puppet, he has no idea. He doesn’t feel like he’s narrowly escaped a career-ending injury. He doesn’t feel lucky. If anything, he’s a little disappointed. He’s pretty sure that’s a bad sign.

    Something needs to change.

    Maybe he’ll start with his hair.

     

    Or: Kevin Day getting his hot girl summer by hooking up with Shane and Ilya(seperately)

    Summary

    Six months ago, Shane’s intimate conversation and break-up with Rose Landry was recorded and leaked. In those six months, his life had completely upended and everything had changed, for better or for worse. Except for Ilya. He still has Ilya, and he’s beginning to understand that he always will.

    It’s 2018. Shane Hollander has to figure out his new life, in a new city, on a new team, while being out to the world but not by his own choice. Ilya, along for the ride, also has to learn what it means to be connected to a place, to a person, and to his own inner truth.

    (Sequel to “something you can fix,” set post-Heated Rivalry, pre-The Long Game)

    Summary

    Ilya glances at Shane, at the way the dying light is catching in his hair, refracting. At that spiderlily mouth, slightly open and curling coyly, two teeth peeked through the dark gap like an American Girl doll. At that shoulder, bare and pale and close enough to touch if Ilya just leaned forward, if he just reached out and took another liberty.

    To touch another person is to say: I know you will die, and I am doing this anyway.

    His mother used to say something like this. About painting.

    Every portrait is an act of faith, Ilyushenka. Faith and futility both.

    contrary to personal preference, ilya gets a roommate.

    "You have to come to the locker room. Now."

    Shane frowns. Holds up his notebook. "I'm busy."

    Summary

    “It’s not something we’ve discussed too much,” Shane admits reluctantly. “I mean, I think we talked about it once or twice, after being around Hayden’s kids. But…I was afraid…I don’t know if you want…” His sentence falters and he presses a hand to his stomach, inhaling slowly like he’s trying to soothe more nausea.

    It takes Ilya’s brain a few moments to process, to catch up, to piece together this half-filled puzzle Shane’s laying out for him.

    “We talked about having babies,” Ilya supplies, arching an eyebrow, “are you trying to say we are…having a baby?”

    Shane sucks in another slow, controlled breath. “Um, yeah. That’s what I’m trying to say.”

    “You are pregnant?”

    Wincing, the shorter man nods. “Mhm.”
