    Summary

    Hayden wanted to apologize but wasn’t even sure what to apologize for. “If you’re so embarrassed about your choice of boyfriend, maybe get a better one?”

    It wasn’t any worse than anything Hayden had said before. In fact, it was probably fairly tame as far as insults went, but it didn’t matter. Hayden could see the moment something inside of Shane detonated. One minute Shane was standing only a handful of feet away, his suit jacket clutched in his hands, and the next the jacket was dropped to the floor in a heap, and Shane’s hands were fisted in Hayden’s shirt, his back slamming against the wall.

    Holy fuck, he thought. Shane is going to fucking hit me.

    -

    or, Hayden makes one too many shitty comments about Rozanov and Shane finally snaps. And while he never actually lands a blow on his best friend, the defeated way he talks about ending their friendship has Hayden rattled. After the Centaurs plane makes an emergency landing, Hayden knows he needs to do everything in his power to make it up to his best friend, with Jackie's help of course.

    Summary

    Scott remembers what it felt like to have Kip ripped out of his hands by fear and silence and a world that insisted love like his had to be hidden. Remembers the hollow space it left behind, the way he couldn’t breathe around the pain, and he wouldn’t wish that kind of loss on anyone.

    Not even on Rozanov.

    And somehow, for the first time, Rozanov doesn’t look like an asshole at all. Just a man holding the person he loves like the world might try to pry him away.

    Or: After a brutal playoff press conference, Scott follows Shane into the hallway and accidentally witnesses something he was never meant to see.

    It changes the way he understands both Hollander and Rozanov.

    Summary

    After retiring, Shane and Ilya built a peaceful life for themselves at the cottage.

    Until Ilya was diagnosed with dementia.

    From that moment on, as everything else begins to blur, Shane remains the one place Ilya can always come back to, the only thing he can still know for certain, the one truth he keeps believing in even when everything else slips away.

    Summary

    Alexa Rhodes @Alexa_Rhodes

    Big Bears fan btw ;) @TheIlyaRozanov

    Shane frowns. Alexa Rhodes. He’s heard the name before. The memory of a particularly obscene locker room chirp from J.J. suddenly flickers through his mind. Shane navigates to her account, and his stomach sinks when he sees the details of her profile. 

    She’s a model signed with IMG, has 1.2 million followers, and looks exactly like the type of woman Ilya was often photographed exiting clubs with not that long ago. She is undeniably and painfully gorgeous — the type of person you see in the airport or grocery store and have to pause to admire. There’s a Russian flag emoji in her bio that seems to stare back at Shane tauntingly. 

    Shane immediately decides that he hates her. 

    Or,

    Ilya films a collaboration with Porsche and goes viral for being hot. Shane’s solution? Surprising Ilya with lingerie, naturally.

    Summary

    I’m sorry for wanting more from you.
    I’m sorry for being mad at your happiness. I want nothing more than for you to be happy, even if it isn’t with me.
    And I’m sorry for saying this, but if I die without letting you know, I’m afraid I’ll spend the afterlife regretting it.

    OR

    What if Ilya’s plane scare happened earlier, two months after the tuna meltdown, when Shane is still with Rose?
