    Summary

    Ilya was used to hazing. He had been subjected to it, he had participated in it, and, as a captain, he had stood guard over the rookies and protected them from anything truly harmful. But if he had been asked, Ilya would have approved of this prank. He would have authorized it, given Cliff and Vicky his seal of approval, perhaps even helped orchestrate it.

    Any other day, Ilya might have been happy to play along.

    But, in perfect dramatic irony, it had not happened any other day. It had happened today. And, cherry on top, of course the rookie had to walk in when Shane was already freaking out about Ilya saying his name.

    +++

    A prank-gone-wrong leads to the Boston Bears finding out about Shane and Ilya’s relationship in 2016. The day Ilya first invited Shane into his house. Right after they say each other’s names for the first time. Fuck his life, honestly.

    Summary

    “Sounds boring,” Ilya comments, unable to stop himself. “Okay, so what is the emergency, Sveta? You said the guy dropped two days ago.”

    “They’ve already tried three different professional doms and nobody managed to take him out of it, so–”

    “Who's they?” Ilya interrupts her.

    “The hockey team. Montreal Voyagers. They are flying him in to us now.”

    The Behavioral Education & Authority Relationships Services (B.E.A.R.S. for short).

    Summary

    Shane and Ilya navigate playing on the same team while pushing through the emotional challenges of casual hookups, personal problems, and the bittersweetness of falling hard for each other while reaching for the Stanley Cup. Will their little rules help, or make them crash and burn on their way to the top?

    -

    “I need to know that you'll follow the rules.”

    Ilya could barely hear Shane, too focused on his hand. “I will.”

    “We'll both get what we want this way. Other than the Cup.”

    Shane redirects his gaze again, and Ilya's breathing hard, trying his best to be normal right now. All Ilya wanted was to kiss those lips, not talk. He thought they were done with the talking.

    “Tell me you understand.” Shane says.

    “I understand.” Ilya manages to say. He wants to complain and be dramatic about how badly he needed Shane to make him come right now.

    “Okay.” Shane says with a small smile.

    “Nothing is funny, Shane.”

    “It's very funny. How long have you been wanting this?”

    “Stop talking.”

    “How long, Ilya?”

    “Every fucking night.”

    Summary

    Shane groaned and walked to the living room where he dropped down in the armchair beside the couch. “No, it’s not a crisis.” He glared at Jackie. “There’s a guy in our lecture that keeps looking at me, but when I make eye contact with him, he just smirks and looks away.”

    “You didn’t tell me he was smirking, Shane!” Jackie gasped from her spot on the arm of the couch. “Oh, he totally wants you!”

    Shane glared at her, “Again, no he doesn’t. Looking at me and smirking when we make eye contact does not mean he wants me.”

    “Yes, it does,” J.J. and Hayden chimed in at the exact same time. They both chuckled and glanced at each other before fist-bumping.

    “Whatever,” Shane stood, “I’m not talking about this anymore. I have work to do on that research paper for lab on Friday. Jackie?”

    --

    OR: Shane is a university student who keeps catching his classmate staring at him during lecture. Of course he's in denial about what that means.

    Summary

    “Alright.”

    And then after a beat and a slow nod.

    “Okay. Let's do London. Maybe it could be fun.”

    Shane was tired of the conversation all at once. And if he really thought about it, he had run out of excuses.

    After the worst day of his life (aka Tunagate), Shane Hollander agrees to spend two weeks at Wimbledon as a guest of Rolex. His mother is convinced he'll hit it off with the Swedish princess. Shane is just trying to get away from the memory of Ilya Rozanov.

    Unfortunately for both of them, neither of them knows they're headed to the same place.
