Ilya is…he’s Shane’s entire heart. The air that he breathes, the reason for everything he does. None of it would matter without Ilya. This is the closest he’s ever come to losing him, and the thought of it - the possibility that everything they’ve been fighting for could just be lost - had struck Shane so acutely, so agonisingly.
He’d once thought that losing hockey was the worst thing that could ever happen to him. He knows, now, that isn’t true.

“I wasn’t waiting for you!” Shane says, irritated. “No? You answered the door like you were standing on the other side of it when I knocked.” “Well, you did text. You told me you were coming,” Shane huffs. He steps back from Rozanov to glare at him. “I didn’t want you waking up my neighbours. It’s late.” Rozanov looks amused. “Hmm, if you say. But I do not think you have to worry about that tonight.” “Why?” Shane asks. Rozanov raises a brow. “Did you not know that tonight is New Year’s Eve?” “Oh. I guess I forgot.” OR Ilya visits Shane in his hotel room on New Year's Eve, set during their hookup years.

His phone reads 12:05am when the call comes through. Lily appearing on his screen. Smiling, Shane swipes to answer the video request, something in his chest settling when Ilya’s face appears. “I thought you were busy partying.” Ilya wrinkles his nose, adjusting the phone so the light from whichever darkened corner he’s found illuminates his face, “Doesn’t mean I would not call. Happy New Year.” “Happy New Year.” Shane echoes, shimmying down into his pile of pillows.

“I'm serious. We can’t just—what, you want us to dress up and wander into Times Square like idiots? To celebrate the New Year?

With a sudden growl of frustration—only half-fake— Ilya sweeps the cards off the couch in one dramatic motion. Before Shane can even protest, Ilya’s crawling across the cushions, pushing Shane onto his back and settling over him. Shane yelps, laughing. “Hey—!” But the sound cuts off with a soft gasp when Ilya dips down and starts kissing along his neck, slow and thorough. One of Ilya’s hands braces next to Shane’s head, the other slides under his Henley, palm against the soft skin of Shane’s stomach. Shane drops the remaining cards instantly, his hands flying to Ilya’s waist. His breath stutters as Ilya noses along the curve of his neck, lips brushing just beneath his ear. “You’re such a sore loser,” Shane breathes, but he tilts his head anyway, baring more skin, welcoming him in. Ilya grins against him, victorious. -- Or, the one where Ilya and Shane get to ring in the New Year together for the first time.

The Russian New Year tradition of "burning wishes" involves writing a wish on paper, burning it as the Kremlin clock strikes midnight, putting the ashes in a glass of champagne or other drink, and consuming it before the chimes end, all within seconds, to make the wish come true. It's a popular ritual symbolizing releasing intentions for the coming year, often accompanied by toasts and family gatherings as the new year begins. Ilya Rozanov has everything he's ever wanted. He has Shane Hollander. What the hell is he supposed to wish for now?

2025-12-27
Troy Barrett comes to Ottawa wanting stability. He tells himself he wants the team, the routine, the structure, the safety of fitting in without needing too much from anyone. This is his clean start, and he needs to do whatever it takes to keep it.
What he finds instead is Shane Hollander, amazing perfect Shane Hollander, and the uncomfortable realisation that the thing he’s been trying hardest not to want might be the only thing that actually feels like what he needs.
As lines blur and tempers rise, Troy learns the hard way that wanting to belong can turn into wanting to keep, and that some things aren’t up for negotiation, especially when there’s a Russian captain who’s already decided what’s not on offer.
or
“Hey, Ilya?” Troy asks, already regretting it. “I was actually going to ask you about someone.”
The moment he says Shane Hollander’s name, the locker room goes quiet, and Troy knows he’s crossed a line he didn’t fully understand.
Or
