    Summary

    Ilya might never step foot in Russia ever again. Might never walk the streets that watched him grow up or hear his native language roll off the tongues of everyone around him. Might never get another chance to visit his mother’s grave until the day his bones are laid to rest beside hers.

    Russia used to be home, where he thought he felt the most like himself.

    But now?

    Ilya knows, as Shane holds his gaze with stars in his eyes and those beautiful freckles gleaming in the sunlight, that his home will always be right here in front of him.

    * * *

    Back at the cottage after coming clean about their newfound relationship, Shane starts to feel guilty for making Ilya choose between him and the only home he’s ever known. For Ilya, though, it was never really much of a choice at all.

    (Or, Shane learns how to make Ilya’s favorite childhood meal, and Ilya has a lot of feelings about it.)

    Summary

    Ilya simply smiles, “Moya Lyubov, good to see you too.”

    Shane opens his mouth to continue his rant before seeming to remember that he is still in the middle of the showers, where a few stragglers are furiously scrubbing soapy suds off their chests, rushing to finish and get out of Shane’s warpath.

    “For fucks sake,” Shane groans, “Get the fuck out of here already! I’m trying to yell at your fucking captain!”

    Ilya watches, delightedly, as his defensemen run out of the room with their tails tucked.

    Shane doesn’t even wait for the last man to cross the threshold into the locker room before he is whirling on Ilya again.

    “A hands-off rule? Who the fuck do you think you are?”

    ~

    Campus nerd and golden boy Shane Hollander breaks up with Hockey captain and notorious fuckboy Ilya Rozanov because he wants to pursue other options. Ilya issues a campus wide hands off law to make sure that doesn’t happen. When Shane storms into The BU hockey’s teams showers to tell off his ex, Ilya is determined to get the truth out of him for why they really broke up, because he knows deep down he’s the only one Hollander truly wants.
