    Summary

    “Ilya Rozanov,” Shane repeats slowly, letting himself taste the words. He grins. “Wow. You’re, like, a really good player. How come you’re in Canada for summer camp? Is that weird to ask? Sorry if that’s weird. I just meant-”

    Shane is cut off by a hand on his mouth. He flushes.

    “Too fast,” Ilya says. “My English… not good.”

    “Sorry,” Shane mumbles into Ilya’s hand. Ilya grins and shakes his head, curls dancing, as he pulls his hand away.

    “Is okay. Slow words. Okay?”

    This year marks thirteen year Shane Hollander's third summer at Coach Marakov's elite hockey training camp. In attendance for the first time: Ilya Rozanov, visiting from Russia. Shane isn't the most sociable, and Ilya's English isn't the greatest, yet the unlikely duo soon become the best of friends.

    It's just one summer, but it makes a world of difference.

    Summary

    What if everything in the MLH Awards rooftop scene had.gone completely differently?

    "I feel like I'm home. I don't know what that means. I have never felt at home anywhere in a long time. But right now. With you inside me. Your hands on me. I am home."

    A canon divergence from Heated Rivalry Episode 1 "Rookies." The MLH awards rooftop scene, rewritten - what Shane and Ilya truly feel about each other, and about the award, when nobody walks away. A character study on how Ilya's scars impact him, on how deeply and freely Shane loves him, and the start of something beautiful. Two boys. One trophy. Zero words big enough for what they feel for each other.

    Summary

    Maybe it was the alcohol. Maybe it was the month of silence, of sleepless nights and unsaid words piling up inside him. Maybe it was the simple, terrifying certainty that if Shane walked away again, it could be for good. That if he didn’t say something now, he never would.

    Resolve settled heavy in Ilya’s chest.

    “Shane Hollander,” he breathed unsteadily. “Running away from me again. Starting to hurt my feelings.”

    or, things go a little bit differently, starting at the club. ilya has spent his whole life afraid, and he's tired of it.

    or, this is not a love story, but a story about love. featuring crossword puzzles, phone calls, anger, joy, grief, hospitals, first dates, burning houses, ill-timed reveals, sunsets, christmas, birthdays, and excessive use of the word 'boring'. not specifically in that order.
