    Summary

    Ethan finally turned away from the game and made his way over to Shane to press up against his back as Shane slipped his shoes on. Shane turned in his arms to kiss Ethan, but as he brought his face closer, Ethan laughed and pulled back to look at him.

    “Wait, you’re not really gonna wear those ugly reading glasses to dinner, are you?”

    Shane’s face flushed as he reached up and took his glasses off before setting them on the side table next to the door. A loud noise startled him and he looked over to see that Ilya had tossed his game controller onto the coffee table haphazardly. He stood up abruptly, nostrils flared and mouth pinched into a tight line as he stalked off to his bedroom, muttering something in Russian along the way.

    or, Shane has a shitty boyfriend that Ilya can't stand because he's in love with him and everyone in the house knows but Shane.

    Summary

    “What are you doing here?” Shane asks Ilya.

    “Svetlana set me up on a blind date,” he responds, doesn’t bother lying. Curious to see what his reaction will be. “What are you doing here?” He throws back.

    Shane’s eyebrows do something complicated. They’re interrupted by a knock on the door.

    “Babe? You okay in there? You’ve been in there for a while,” a voice comes through.

    “I’ll be right out, just washing my hands,” Shane responds stiffly. They hear footsteps walk away from the bathroom.

    “Babe?” Ilya repeats. Watches as Shane’s cheeks turn pink again.

    “That’s Jackson,” Shane states. “My boyfriend. It’s our one year anniversary.”

    “Ah.” Is all Ilya can say. Tries to smile, “Congratulations.”

    Summary

    “What is there to talk about?”

    “What’s there to talk about?!” Hollander scoffed, shaking his head. “You’re playing for my fucking team!”

    “I know.”

    “Why did you have to go and get traded?! You realise we’re going to have to see each other every day from now on, and play together, and-”

    “Yes,” Ilya interrupted. He didn’t want to know how long Hollander’s list was. “I know.”

    Hollander took a deep breath. “Okay, listen,” he said. “Just so we’re clear - we don’t know each other outside of playing against each other, right?”

    “Right.”

    “And we can’t- can’t hook up anymore.”

    OR: Ilya gets traded to Montreal in October 2014. He's lonely, and angry, and he misses Boston. He doesn't know if it helps that Hollander is there or not.

    Summary

    Shane is in love with Matt. They're in love and it's fine. It's better than fine really, Shane loves just about everything about Matt and he loves all of Matt's friends. Except for the big tall Russian one that wont stop staring at him like he knows something Shane doesn't. Like he's waiting for Shane to snap. Like he's begging Shane to do something.

    And Shane won’t, obviously. Because Ilya is the type of man to reel you in and the leave you high and dry. Leave you looking for pieces of him in every new person that you meet, leave you looking for signs you didn't just make the whole thing up, like some wild fantasy that was born of monotony.

    Oh, and he fact he has a boyfriend who he loves. A lot. It isn't monotonous. Its love.
