Summary
There are five miles left on Shane’s commute when his car stalls on Route 136. A litany of swears light up the inside of his luxury vehicle at the same time his check engine and coolant lights blink.
When he is dropped off at Rozanov's with a broken down car, he realizes that the head mechanic may do more than just tune up his engine.

Summary
“Cliff,” Rozanov said.
Interesting. He only ever used his first name when he wanted something.
“I need a favour.”
Called it.
“What can I do for you, Roz?”
“I need you to punch me.”
Cliff stared. He stared some more.
"Why?"
“Shane hasn’t let me fuck him since the bar, it’s been too long and he always rides me when I have to see the medics.”
A beat.
Another beat.
Then Cliff absolutely lost it.
------------------------------------------------
or5 times people clocked Shane and Ilya being absolutely unhinged about each other and the 1 time it was encouraged.

Summary
“Game is over,” he says. “You won. I lost. I was annoying. Normal.”
“That’s not—” Shane starts, then stops, because he actually doesn't know how to finish that thought without sounding like an idiot. His jaw works, teeth grinding together.
That's not what I meant. That's not the point. You said I was boring and you were right and I need you to say it again so I know where I stand, so I know what you think of me, so I can stop waiting for the other shoe to drop.
He settles for: “You were kind of an asshole.”

Summary
When the unsentimental financial imperative of the NHL sees Shane traded to the Boston Raiders, he and Ilya are thrown into closer extended proximity than ever before. As they adjust to life as teammates, they are forced to contend with the nature of their relationship -and must answer for themselves: is it even a relationship at all?
____Sliding down the wall, Shane hunched over his untied sneakers, shoved on hastily when Coach had called him in for a meeting after morning skate.
“Boston wanted you specifically. I’ve already spoken to their GM. You’re flying this evening or tomorrow morning: I’ll confirm once the paperwork clears.”
“Mom,” Shane managed.
“Oh sweetie. I know, okay. Those fuckers, how dare they do this! Two fucking cups! Now all of a sudden they decide they want a reset and you’re going to fund it.”
Shane put his head between his knees and tried to breathe. God, Boston. They hated him there; it was so far away; he was fucking their captain.
