    Summary

    “You heard me. Truth or dare?” Hollander asks, crossing his arms over his chest. His breath ghosts over Ilya's ear, causing a shiver to run up his spine despite the heat inside.

    Ilya is not often surprised. He doesn't like surprises. He is usually the one who is causing chaos around him, bringing a tornado of mayhem with him wherever he goes. If he is the one starting shit then it can't sneak up on him. Then he can't be caught off guard. Can't be caught gaping like he is now, like an idiot.

    He tries to regain what's left of his composure. Save some face, if he ever had any.

    ---

    Or, a bunch of tipsy hockey players play a slightly homoerotic game of Truth or Dare and Ilya becomes very jealous at the idea that Shane has sent nudes to someone who isn't him. Both men proceed to crash out into a spiral of possessiveness and jealousy.

    Summary

    Shane huffs out a breath, a faint, helpless smile pulling at his mouth. “I know.” His thumb brushes along Ilya’s cheek. “I just think this is taking a lot more out of me.”

    “What is?” Ilya frowns, kissing the inside of Shane’s palm.

    “This,” Shane says quietly, gesturing between them. “Keeping it a secret. I thought it would be easier. Just don’t talk about my love life, right? Avoid the questions. But it’s not like that. Every time something good happens, something funny, I think of you. I want to tell them about you. And every time I don’t, every time I hold that back, it hurts. And then I get angry, too, because no one else has to do this. No one else has to filter their life down to hotel rooms and fake names. I think what JJ said wasn’t really about him at all. It just reminded me that I can’t even brag about you.”

    OR

    After two blissful weeks at the cottage, Shane and Ilya return to their lives back in Boston and Montreal. As the season begins again, Shane is consumed by a loneliness so profound it pushes him to grasp at anything that might ease the pain.

    Summary

    In Vegas, after they’d said everything right up to the edge of I love you, Shane and Ilya came up with a plan. It was long term, with many, many steps. There might be a spreadsheet somewhere that Shane won’t admit to.

    But it’s a plan, nonetheless. Over the summer of 2014, they tweak it and add things important to the both of them. There are even many, extensive, contingency plans.

    OR

    Thanks to Shane's small lie the first time they hooked up, Shane and Ilya are together years earlier. Now, they have to figure out what to do about it.

    Summary

    Ilya is not going to steal Shane Hollander's dog. That would be illegal. And wrong. And someone would probably find out and make Ilya give him back.

    So. Not stealing.

    But there is nothing wrong with giving Chernysh all the pats and treats that he deserves, is there?

    Nothing wrong with encouraging Chernysh to spend more and more time at Ilya's house until he doesn't even remember who Hollander is.

    Because Hollander is stupid and boring and does not deserve a dog as good as Chernysh. No, he doesn't, does he? Because Chernysh is the best boy in the whole world, yes he is.
