    Summary

    “You’re strong.” Someone comments from behind him.

    Caught off guard by the knowledge he is being watched, Shane turns around.

    Ilya Rozanov is standing there, one hand tucked in the jacket of his pocket and the other holding a cigarette. He lifts it to his lips and takes a drag. It should be illegal for anyone to look as good as Rozanov does while smoking, Shane thinks, it’s detrimental to the country’s health.

    “Yeah.” Shane agrees, for a lack of anything else to say.

    “Hockey player.” Ilya comments.

    Summary

    Shane gets in the car and slams the door shut.

    “What was that?” his dad asks, voice slightly worried.

    “Nothing,” Shane says unconvincingly, looking down at his hands, tearing at the skin around his fingernails.

    “Didn’t look like nothing, bud. It’s unlike you not to say bye to your friend like that. Or slam the door.”

    “Ilya Rozanov is not my friend, Dad.”

    ***

    Shane Hollander thinks he's ready for 8th grade. For the most part, he is.
    Enter: Ilya Rozanov.
    Shane is not ready for the way his life is about to change.

    Summary

    ”Shane Hollander of the Montreal Metros has been accused of homophobia after making an insensitive joke regarding gay marriage. This is especially hurtful due to its timing — following a shutout game against the New York Admirals, where Captain Scott Hunter resides as the only openly gay player in the MLH. Our insider source confirms this is not the first time Hollander has expressed his negative opinion on the LGBT+ community.
    Our team has reached out to Hollander’s representative staff and is awaiting a response.”

     
    Or: Five times Hollanov tries to come out only for nobody to believe them, and one time it sticks.

    Summary

    Shrugging one shoulder far more casually than he possibly feels, Ilya says, “I like both. Is secret, okay?”

    “Okay,” Hollander says, voice cracking.

    He doesn’t say anything else. The air’s so heavy around them that it feels like being in the middle of a scrum, the weight and heat of all those bodies pressing down on you. Danger always feels like hockey; it’s the most dangerous thing Ilya knows, except for this. Everything dangerous in his life involves men’s bodies and just how close he can get to them. Closer than he probably should.

    A year after mysteriously dropping out of the 2009 draft, Shane Hollander is signed by the Boston Raiders, right behind Ilya Rozanov. Having the two biggest stars in the league on the same line is great for Boston — but playing alongside their worst rival was never exactly in Shane or Ilya's plans. Especially not when staying away from each other starts to feel just as impossible as getting along.
