Hayden took a bite, chewed pensively, then asked, “So, where are you going?”
Shane felt his lips twitch into a small smile. “New York.”

“You need to calm down,” Ilya says. “You will wear out your fancy sneakers.”
“Is this a joke to you?!” Shane snaps, turning so sharply that his Rebooks squeak against the warehouse’s cement. “It’s not fucking funny. These guys could fucking ruin everything.”
Ilya clenches his jaw. Shane is scared and he hates that there’s nothing he can do to fix it. Ever since the video landed in both their inboxes, neither of them has had a good night’s sleep.
or
One year into their relationship a video risks exposing Shane and Ilya’s relationship. To protect their secret, they will need to do as the backmailers demand. But how far are they willing to go? And what if there’s more going on that meets the eye?

It’s Ilya who brings it up. He’s in his kitchen, making himself some kind of soup that Shane is already searching for recipes of—it’s called rassolnik. Leaning with one hip against the counter, he asks, “What about your sex dungeon?”
“I don’t have a sex dungeon,” Shane says, both grossed out and intrigued by the idea.
“The apartment, moya lyubov,” Ilya replies, fondness sheathed in annoyance. He slurps loudly, laughing when Shane makes a face at him over their video call. “What will you do with the apartment?”
“Sell it, maybe.”
--
Or, Shane doesn't sell the secret-sex-apartment building. He starts renting it out, and somehow ends up with a gaggle of Russian tenants-turned-friends, several stray cats, and one very spoiled hamster.

We Dem Boyz
Vaughny added J.J, and unknown number.Vaughny: Fellas, I just spoke with the rookie in Ottawa, Boodram, and we realized there is no safe space in the league for minorities for us. I would make a big group chat, but I think the four of us is good enough.
J.J: Ahhh, shit. Sounds good to me. Welcome to hell – I mean welcome to MHL Boodram!
Vaughny: No, you were right J.J. Welcome to hell.
Boodram: 😂😂. Thanks guys. I appreciate it.
Shane: Yes welcome!
Shane: Also, what does the name of the chat mean?
J.J: Ahhh Captaine….Or Carter Vaughn creates a group chat with Shane, J.J and Zane and they become each other's support system.

Outside, bugs swarm around the porch light. A half-moon hangs over the dark swath of lake, spider-spun white daubed across the oil-spill surface. That perfect day on the water was less than a week ago. The scabs on Ilya’s ankle haven’t even healed. He knew the rest of their lives would be an uphill battle; he just hoped they could lie in the grass for a little longer.
There’s a hitch in Shane’s breath, a catch that brings Ilya’s attention back to him. He’s seen the ice tilt, analyzed the offense, and realization freezes across his face.
The whistle blows. Ilya’s been caught.
“You don’t want to figure this out,” Shane says finally. “You want him to billet with you.”
Last season, Ilya broke his jaw. Next season, he'll break from Boston for Ottawa and a shot at making an impossible relationship work. This season, he breaks every promise he’s ever made.

“So. The plan,” Ilya says eventually. “What should we do? Should you request a trade to Ottawa?”
Shane pulls himself back, just enough so he can meet Ilya’s eyes. He had considered that, on the car ride over. Considered waiving his No-Movement Clause for the Centaurs.
But then, he began to consider waiving it for a different team in a different city. A city that already has a house for them to share.
Ottawa made sense before, when it seemed like the only option for the two of them to be closer together.
But now?
“I could,” Shane says. “Or, I could request a trade to Boston.”
Or: it’s the Spring of 2018. A locker room incident disguised as a prank outs Shane, and his teammates discover his relationship with a rival NHL player— a player that Shane refuses to disclose the identity of.
In the following months, it becomes obvious that Montreal can no longer be a home for Shane.
Boston, however, just might be.

They’ve been struggling a lot with time zones recently.
They’ve always texted each other no matter where either of them are, or what time it is. It used to just be sexts and hotel room numbers and deleted messages. Now, it’s also funny videos and articles about hockey and long, rambling threads, only messages with their names deleted. They video call nearly every night. Nothing is really specific to the time.
Except.
“Good morning,” “goodnight,” sappy and saccharine, sent as soon as they wake up and right before they go to bed. That’s been a thing since the cottage, especially on nights they can’t call. Good morning, goodnight, easy when they’re both on the same continent, easy when there’s no time difference versus a 7 hour one, but Shane keeps sending the wrong one by accident lately, and Ilya teases him because -
“Shane?”
“He’s in Russia,” Shane rasps.

"Never have I ever checked out my teammates in the locker room." Comeau said, looking directly at him. Shane left his beer exactly where it was and met Comeau's gaze without saying a word, waiting for someone else to break the silence, because surely that had to have been a joke. "Come on, Cap. It's no fun if you're just gonna lie." Drapeau let out with a quiet snort. Shane frowned, genuinely confused. "What?" "You really expect us to believe you've never taken a peek at us in the showers?" ⎯⎯⎯ Or: A game of Never Have I Ever with the Voyageurs turns ugly, it's a good thing Ilya is not too far way.

Shane has his cornerstones of control: Ilya, food, and hockey.
He can keep them all discrete and harmonious - a well-oiled machine.
Hockey belongs on the ice. Shane and Ilya belong at the cottage. Hayden belongs at a distance where Shane doesn't have to explain himself.
Except Hayden really should know about Ilya, shouldn't he? And surely telling him can't blow Shane's life up too much. Ilya doesn't think so, but Ilya routinely asserts that his skates are "too American and trying to humble him", so maybe Ilya's opinions aren't always to be entirely trusted.
OR: Hayden Pike loves Shane a lot. Enough to tolerate the Russian shitbag that is Ilya Rozanov? Well...

“Wait,” Haas finally chimed in, holding up a hand. “You were so afraid of being caught you bought a building to hook up in?”
“…Yes?” Shane answered.
Haas went a little pale. “You must have been so scared.” The mood had suddenly changed. No one thought it was funny anymore.
Shane sat up a little. “…Yes? It could have ended both of our careers. Almost ended both of our careers. And not to mention, Ilya still had a Russian passport. It was fucking terrifying.”
Luca’s face fell. “That is so sad. I’m so sorry.”

Replying to @AndyJColeman
oh so we’re at that point in the off-season where you just start talking out of your ass huhOr: It’s the summer of 2018. To the disbelief of the public, rumors claiming that the Montreal Voyageurs will be trading Shane Hollander begin circulating online.
As is often the case with professional hockey, Montreal’s loss is Boston’s gain.

Hayden stares, the sight in front of him not quite computing.
There is the couch. There is Shane on the couch. There is Shane on the couch, sleeping on his back with one arm wrapped securely around the waist of another person sleeping on top of him. The waist of another man sleeping on top of him.
A man.
As in, not Boston Lily.
As in, not a woman at all.

Kip grabs Scott's thigh as he watches Shane lick his lips before tucking his smile back between his teeth. Rozanov meets Shane's eyes from across the room, heated and promising something. Kip feels crazy looking at it being reminded of the tension of their face offs. Shane's eyes drop back to the bland chicken on his plate, and Kip is ready to write this off as a figment of his imagination, when Rozanov catches his eye now and winks.
Scott is going to have five tiny bruises on his thigh. But that doesn't seem to bother him. "Everything okay?"
