    Summary

    What if Shane Hollander got on his knees in a dirty club bathroom in LA, and got more than an orgasm out of it? What if he also made a friend who helped him stand up for himself?
    What if Ilya Rozanov had his very own pet dinosaur?
    What if Scott and Kip met differently?
    What if the queer NHL hockey players found each other sooner, and had each other's backs?
    What if they didn't have to navigate self-discovery, queer love, and homophobia on their own, and what if they all got to come out on their own terms?
    ___
    A funny, sweet, and (briefly!) angsty story about unexpected connections and the power of queer friendship. Told through characters' POVs and text history.

    Summary

    His shirt, his shirt was—

    “You can’t—“ Shane blurted, “you can’t—you’re not supposed to wear a see-through shirt to Wimbledon. There’s a dress code. There are rules. Like, actual rules that actual people follow.”

    The man turned, his eyes sweeping over Shane’s face, down his chest, to the hands clutching the gift bag in his lap.

    Shane’s skin prickled. God, it was so hot out here.

    “Is not see-through.”

    Not see-through? Who was this guy kidding, with his barely-there shirt, tight pants, wild curls, and deep voice?

    Maybe this guy didn’t own a mirror.

    “What do you mean it’s not see-through? It’s obviously transparent. A blind man would notice.”

    “Is not transparent. No blind men here to ask.”

    Shane’s mouth dropped open. He looked away, squaring his shoulders and sitting up straight. Just his luck to be seated next to a lunatic.

    ***

    Shane’s mom said it would be fun, to sit next to a Swedish princess.
    What Shane got instead was a Prince with a pinkie ring, a nipple piercing, and zero respect for the Wimbledon dress code.

    Summary

    Did you figure anything out? Shane writes, and flips the page around for Ilya to read it.

    Wont like the answer, Ilya’s written, in his quick hand.

    So he doesn’t have to take the pen back, Shane just shrugs. What?

    Ilya sits down at the desk for a steady surface to explain.

    3 things
    1 its curse. if true we can break it
    2 its spell. if true we can break it
    3 we are soulmates. if true we are fucked

    “No,” Shane mutters, before he can stop himself. Immediately, he slams a hand over his mouth.

    or: Ilya and Shane are soulmates, and their bond prevents them from both talking and being apart. Unfortunately, the only thing that’ll make the pain stop is confessing the one thing they can say: that they’re in love.

    Summary

    June 2010. Ilya Rozanov is delayed after the CCM shoot. By the time he gets to the locker room, Shane Hollander is out of the showers and Ilya’s entire plan is ruined.
    Only not quite fully ruined. Hollander invites him to dinner with his parents as a thank you for arranging the shoot and Ilya, in a burst of insanity, agrees. He hits it off with Yuna and David. They all exchange numbers. He and Hollander become friends.
    At no point does Ilya stop wanting more from him.

    June 2016. Ilya Rozanov is a superstar. A Cup winner. An MVP. Women want him, men want to be him. He’s fucking miserable.
    He’s in love with his best friend. He can’t deny it anymore. Only now Shane is dating a movie star and happier than Ilya’s ever seen him. Ilya can’t ruin that for him, can’t ruin their friendship by asking for what he knows Shane can’t give. No matter how much it kills him.

    A charity event in San Francisco. A catastrophic computer failure. A fateful decision to drive, not fly. Two days in a car, just the two of them. Alone. Together.
    Ilya’s sick with excitement and with dread, because how can he keep his secrets with Shane so close for so long?

    What he doesn’t know is that Shane has secrets too.
