Summary
In January, 1929, they meet for two days in Corby, Lincolnshire, a village Thomas had never heard of before finding it in the passenger services pamphlet — there's a railway station, some churches, and not much else, if you don't count farmland.
It rains the whole time.
It's perfect.

Summary
Shane's biggest nightmare came true in a way that he could never predict. After losing his phone, his messages with Ilya became public. Everyone would find out he is gay, that he's dating his enemy. But it wasn't his messages with Ilya that became public, it was with Lily. And no one was talking about Shane being gay. They're talking about how misogynistic he is.

Bookmarker's Notes
“That’s not how you joke with a woman, Shane. Have I taught you nothing?” His mother was his mother once again and her tone made tears well up his eyes.
“Mom… she's not..”
“Not what? Not your girlfriend? Because that’s even worse”
“Not a girl! Lily is not... a girl. I’m gay.”
There. He said it. The tears finally fell and his shoulders dropped.
“Mom, what should I be? Gay or a misogynist prick?”

Summary
Hayden had texted her from practice that afternoon: oh my god Jackie you won't believe what happened today, this is fucking wild, I'll tell you all about it tonight and Jackie had panicked a little that he was getting traded or something, but no, he was telling her his best friend was gay.
Which... yeah? Of course?
In the epilogue to Heated Rivalry, Shane tells us that about a month after he comes out to the Metros, Hayden guesses that he's in a relationship with Ilya Rozanov. What this fic supposes is, what if Hayden never figured anything out, Jackie did.

Summary
To his right, Zane Boodram was methodically taping his stick, calm and unhurried. Across from him, Troy Barrett quiet and steady as always, Wyatt Hayes sat already in his pads, was half-sprawled on the bench, grinning like he was waiting for something to explode.
And Shane. Shane was leaning back against his stall like he hadn’t just signed a contract that changed both their lives.

Bookmarker's Notes
As Shane stepped back into his shoulder pads, Ilya rose and helped guide them into place, fastening the straps carefully this time. When he reached for Shane’s helmet, he settled it onto his head and secured the chin strap with steady bare fingers before stepping closer.
“You are mine,” he murmured.
Shane met his eyes steadily.
“I’m mine too, Ilya,” he replied gently.
The possessiveness did not flare.
It settled.

While Ilya is typing, Hunter has been staring at his phone as his eyebrows slowly move closer and closer together. Ilya is tempted to make a joke about Hunter getting wrinkles.
“Does your phone work?” Hunter says, looking up from his own phone. For a brief, panicked moment, Ilya is worried, but then, the three dots of Shane typing, and then Shane has responded: Are you joking??
Ilya types back quickly: No. Elevator stopped. They say 20 minutes.
Shane responds immediately: Please don’t kill Scott Hunter
