    Summary

    “No loopholes,” Wyatt says. “No ‘technically that was a forehead’ nonsense.”

    Ilya gasps. “No, no no. . .” he starts.

    “Deal.” Shane says.

    He glances at Ilya and there’s a flicker there; challenge accepted. Ilya’s grin turns sharp. “Fine. No kissing. All day. Is easy.” he shrugs.

    (ie. shane and ilya make a bet with their teammates but end up having an unexpected turn of events during the day)

    Summary

    Anyway, Shane didn't remember exactly what was in the folder ... But he knew they were all good shots of him.

    He hastily clicked open the folder, his eyes barely glancing through the dozen or so shots there, vaguely registering a picture with a sunset background from his condo balcony, something of him laughing, a picture of him working at his laptop with his glasses on...

    The director called him again, and he shook his head, the photos blurring. Whatever. It would have to do.

    He clicked "select all," then the messages icon, then Rozanov's name. Hit send.

    Summary

    Ilya’s lips purse, and he gets that look on his face that means he’s about to say something terrible.

    “You are waiting for me to give you chocolate?” he asks, one of his eyebrows even more arched than usual. There it is.

    In which the Boston Raiders are playing the Montreal Metros on February 15th, and it's totally normal for Shane to spend Valentine's Day with his very casual situationship.

    Omg. I love tje writing. Almost understated, my favorite style and Shane is so (unintentionally) funny and relatable in this.

    Summary

    When Lindsay, the team operations manager, had pulled them into a meeting to discuss the rooming arrangements for the season, he’d been expecting Shane to get flustered, and turn bright red, and stammer out something like we wouldn’t want to make anyone on the team uncomfortable. Ilya, in fact, had just opened his mouth to say as much to her, but Shane beat him to the punch.

    “If it can be arranged and doesn’t throw off anything, that’d be great,” Shane said.

    Ilya gaped at him. “You want to room together?”

    Shane just looked baffled. “What do you mean? We’re married. Of course we’re rooming together.”

    --

    Or: Shane says he wants to room with Ilya on the road. He tells the team he wants to room with Ilya on the road. He tells Ilya he wants to room together on the road. But Tanner Dillion is an idiot, and now Ilya can't stop thinking what if Shane gets sick of me?

    Summary

    “-can’t see each other again,” Ilya says, looking only at Shane’s hand, holding it so, so gently and stroking over Shane’s skin so, so softly. The soothing feeling of it makes it very hard to focus, but Shane tries very hard to do it anyway. “I tried-we tried, but this can’t happen again.” It takes a moment, but Shane finally manages to make sense of the words, and he lets out a soft noise of understanding.

    Ah. He’s apologizing that he won’t be able to see Shane in the hospital again before he leaves.

    “I understand,” he says, and he does. It was probably really hard for Ilya to get here even once, and it can’t be very long before his plane leaves. He’s sad, of course–they didn’t even get to spend time together, really–but it’s not like this will be the last chance they ever have to see each other. He gives Ilya his best attempt at a smile, and if it comes out a little sad, too, all Ilya does is reach out to stroke the backs of his fingers gently over his cheek.

    (ilya goes through with his plan to break up with shane in the hospital) (the problem? shane is too high to understand that he's being broken up with)
