    At the end of 2014-2015 MHL season, the Boston Raiders end up with the second pick in the 2015 draft. They draft Shane Hollander. Cliff Marleau proceeds to spend the 2015-2016 MHL season trying (and mostly failing) to figure out why his best friend and captain, Ilya Rozanov, is so fucking weird about their new rookie.

    “Well, I guess you got what you wanted from me already,” Hollander continued. “Whatever. Fuck you.”

    “Wait, no, Hollander.” Ilya turned, throwing an arm into Hollander’s path. “That’s not—”

    “No, it’s fine. Stupid of me to expect anything else.” Hollander shook his head, gaze downcast, the barest hint of angry pink tinging his freckled cheeks. “Thanks for making it good, at least.”

    It. His first time.

    Ilya was the worst sort of asshole.

    ---

    In Sochi, Shane isn’t shy about calling out Ilya for ghosting after getting what he wanted. Once they’re safely away from Russia, Ilya forces himself to be honest with Shane about what that first time meant.

    The photos leak on a Wednesday. Ilya sets his life and career on fire on Sunday, mostly out of spite. On Monday, he is the first out queer player in the NHL.

    Nobody handles the ensuing circus well, least of all Scott Hunter.

    Life feels so chaotic for Shane sometimes, with all the loud noises and the unwritten rules he’s expected to follow, even though no one ever taught them to him. It’s why the bookstore feels more like home to him than anywhere else in Boston. It doesn’t ask Shane to be anything other than himself. Doesn’t ask for any more than he can give.

    He can just exist here.

    Shane likes slow, likes taking his time. And Ilya - without saying or doing anything in particular - makes Shane feel like that’s okay. Like he isn’t doing anything wrong by standing still sometimes.

    (Or, Shane works in a bookstore, Ilya plays hockey, and they both go to the same college. They fall in love in every universe.)

    Once upon a time I was a reluctant Ottawa fan (passed down from my dad) and then the most wild UFA signing happened in 2018 now I’m scrolling thru twitter reading posts about my captain not sleeping with people mixed in with highlights of my team kicking absolute ass. I love life

    It’s a good thing our mother is dead. If she were alive, she’d be so ashamed of what her son has become. Of course Alexei had to open his big mouth and give a statement to some shitty gossip site, and of course the entirety of the internet is posting it now, because Shane and Ilya took the internet and pop culture by storm a few Marches ago, and keeping them in headline stories keeps people engaged. If it were a random comment, Ilya knew it wouldn’t sting as much as it does, and he would just let it go, but it’s Alexei, and it’s Alexei talking about their mom. Their mom, who Ilya puts on such a pedestal, a woman Ilya and Shane dedicated their charity to, a woman that Ilya strives to do the best for every day. It doesn’t just sting, it’s a shot that’s blasted through his heart. AKA: Alexei opens his big mouth, and the Hollanov Defense Squad responds.

    “And that’s why you’re our favourite son.” Shane manages to hide his flinch, just barely, and mostly because Ilya is being pulled into a hug by Yuna. Shane bites the inside of his cheek as he watches the way his husband and mom embrace so easily.

    At some point in their lives, everyone has had at least one favorite stuffed animal or comfort item that they felt an emotional attachment to. It just so happened that their daughter was attached to a stuffed lion that they had picked up from the zoo gift shop. It was a generic stuffed animal, one that wouldn't catch a second glance otherwise but to Sofia Hollander Rozanov, it was her best friend in the whole wide world and heaven help them if anything were to happen to Leo. Or the one where Sofia loses Leo and her papa saves the day.

    Ilya locks eyes with Shane, a small smile playing on the corner of his mouth. “I… what?” “I want a baby,” he says again, his voice just as definite as it had been the first time. “Any one in particular? Harris and Troy’s is very cute.” Shane lets out a small laugh as he rolls his eyes, “Yours preferably.” or, that time Shane and Ilya decide to have a baby.

    Shane was in the last weeks of his pregnancy. He only wanted to spend a couple of days in the cottage alone with Ilya, just the two of them before the baby arrived. Everything would be alright. Nothing could go wrong, could it? They had been so naive. Everything that could have gone wrong did go wrong, putting them through one of the scariest situations of their lives.

    Trouble in paradise? First Husbands of Hockey, Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov, spotted having a tense-looking debrief in their sprinter van right after leaving a fundraising event for the Ottawa Children’s Hospital. The couple appeared strained, sitting with quite a distance between them despite giving the appearance of being all over each other earlier in the night. Fans are wondering, is this the end of their chaotic “love story.”

    - or -

    Shane's getting really tired of people talking shit about his husband.

An already ominous prospect, before he even realises how hard it will be to survive the night and help Shane keep his secrets intact. Which, as the alcohol flows, is getting harder and harder.

    “So. That’s it? Those are the rules?” Hayden asked. “Don’t go through your texts or photos, keep up with your workouts and diet, and listen to everything Yuna says, without question.”

    Shane seemed to be thinking about it, pausing a second. All of a sudden, he looked up at Hayden, again with that intense anxiety face.

    “And most importantly, do not talk to Ilya Rozanov. Ever. No matter what.” Shane said, “Avoid him. Don’t even look at him. OK?”

    Hayden nodded, and resisted the urge to roll his eyes. Like he even needed to be told that. Besides, Shane had been avoiding Ilya Rozanov for his entire career. How hard could it be?

    OR a well-meaning witch bodyswaps Shane and Hayden (to teach them about the power of friendship) the day before the 2017 All Stars Game.
