"What are we going to do?" Shane whispered.
"I will tell them it was me." Rozanov said, interrupting them both.
"You would do that for Shane?" David asked.
"Is only way."
"Ilya, don't be stupid."
"Tell me other way then, Hollander."
Shane's eyes went glassy again. "But - you won't be able to go home. Russia. It won't be safe for you-"
Hayden exchanged a look with J.J. This whole situation was so fucked.

"God, you're such a fucking asshole," Shane said, but his breathing was beginning to even out.
"You love it." Rozanov's voice filtered through the phone.
A pause.
"You feel better now?"
"Yeah... thanks,"
"Good. Listen to me properly, Hollander. Scott Hunter doesn't know shit about us. And if he does, why has he noticed it, hmm? Think about that."
Shane let out another laugh, almost hysterical sounding. "You can't seriously be suggesting that Scott Hunter is gay? You're fucking crazy, Roz."
Oh my God.
The pieces clicked together. Shane and Rozanov?
(shane calls ilya after he fights scott hunter. hayden & jj overhear)

Summary
“No, Ilya, stay.” The last word came out as a whine.
“Why is he calling you Ilya?” Pike asked.
"Why is he asking you to stay?” Hollander’s mom followed.
Ilya shrugged. “How would I know?”
Hollander lifted his arm out, as if reaching for Ilya. “Because I want him to stay.” It was said in a tone that seemed to say, 'obviously'.
“Shane,” Hollander’s dad started. “Um- what’s going on? I thought we hated Rozanov.” He seemed to realise what he’d said and glanced at Ilya. “Sorry.”
“Is fine.”
"No, I don't hate him. I love him."
Cliff's jaw was firmly hanging open, and he didn't think it was going to move anytime today. He felt as if he'd been punched in the stomach, all the air ripped away from his lungs.
"Am I dreaming?" Cliff muttered to himself.
Pike let out a strained laugh. "I think someone spiked my coffee this morning."

“Just hang up.”

What the fuck?

“We’re lovers.” Rozanov offered.
“What the fuck?” Hayden said.
Shane groaned. “Stop saying that, oh my God!”
“What? Is not true?”
“You two. You’re like- together?” Drapeau asked, his eyes flickering between the two of them.
“Christ, I’m gonna be sick.” Hayden said faintly.
Shane’s head reared back and Rozanov immediately stood. “Then fucking leave, Pike.”
Hayden realised what he’d said and held his hands up, a look of panic on his face. “No. No, I didn’t mean- Shane I’m fine with you being gay, I swear-“
Rozanov rolled his eyes. “Someone give this man a medal-“
“For fuck's sake, Ilya-“

Summary
"Whatever. Just don't let yourself get distracted just to get your dick wet, Hollander." Cormeau sneered.
Roz interrupted him. "It has been seven years and it has not distracted us yet. I do not know if you remember this, or maybe your brain is all fucked up from all the hits you take, but me and Hollander are captains and we have both gotten our teams to Cups. So mind your fucking business."
Cliff sucked in a breath.
Surely that wasn't true. It couldn't be true.
7 years.
That would mean it had been going on this entire time. The entire of Roz's career. The entire of Hollander's career.
7 years.
What the fuck.
(flipping my fic love and other drugs on it's head. ilya gets hurt and is high when shane goes to visit)

Summary
A little frantic, she grabbed a knife off the chopping block. Yes, she was aware this was a somewhat dramatic reaction to what she was sure was just her son cancelling his plans, but she wasn't going to find out empty handed like a fool from some budget slasher movie.
She yanked open the door to find… Ilya Rozanov?
He was naked.
She screamed.
“Ah!” Rozanov screamed back, grabbing a pillow from the bed and holding it to his crotch. “Blyat!”
Ilya Rozanov was in Shane’s bedroom. In Shane's apartment. Naked. Wearing nothing. Naked.
“Err-“ Rozanov broke the silence.
“Erm-” Yuna repeated, suddenly feeling flustered.
Burglars she could handle. Ilya Rozanov naked? Not so much.
(yuna goes to shane's apartment and gets the shock of her life)

Patrick Colt: [laughing] I don’t think the opposition know what to do with themselves against Rozanov and Hollander.
[Ilya Rozanov skates round to where Shane Hollander is standing. Hollander has a wide grin on his face after the recent goal.
Rozanov collides into Hollander, hugging him jokily and leaning to plant a wet his on Hollander’s helmet. However, at the last second, Hollander turns to look at Rozanov.
Their lips meet in a kiss.
The two break apart instantly and stare at each other in horror.]
Jack Saad: Oh. That’s… Hmm.
John Cook: [spluttering] Erm-
Patrick Colt: [faintly] Huh. Well. That’s not something you see everyday.

“You have a message from: Lily.” The automated voice read out.
Shane almost swerved into the other lane trying to press the mute button on the dashboard.
”Woah, eyes on the road, dude!” Hayden yelled.
“Ayyy!” J.J cheered. “The famous Boston Lily! Let’s hear what she has to say.”
The automated voice continued. “Can’t wait to have my [tongue emoji] in your [peach emoji].”

Summary
Then, a body slipped under the covers.
Then, lightning quick, a strong, muscled arm wrapped around Hayden’s waist, and he was pulled into a warm, male, and very naked body. A hand moved down quickly to his ass before he could make a sound.
He screamed, and shoved the body away.
The man shouted back.
Hayden froze. That was definitely not Shane's voice.
Hayden ripped the covers off his head. “What the fuck-“
His voice cracked as he took in the face of the man behind him.
No.
Why the holy hell was he seeing Ilya Rozanov's face right now?

Surprisingly, Rozanov seemed to understand completely. “Long distance is hard, yes?”
Wyatt saw Bood’s eyebrows raise. “You talking about your girl, Rozy?”
Rozanov shrugged. “We know what it is like. I have had years of practice. Was complicated. Long distance is shit. It is better now I am here, in Ottawa.”
“What?”
“Yes, uh- she is from Ottawa.”
Bood’s mouth dropped open. “That’s why you moved teams? For her?”
