    Summary

    Those first few moments, though… the rigidity, the preparation for the worst, the clear expectation of rejection and coldness, felt too familiar to David. It was the stance of someone who was ready to be demeaned and have to respond “Yes, sir. Sorry, sir.”

    It was a posture David knew too well from his own youth and teenage years, and he couldn’t stomach that anyone, never mind a guest in his own home and the man who looked at his son with such open adoration, would assume David would require that. He couldn’t allow that to stand.

    Summary

    “The twins are having some big feelings about being disappointed,” Jackie explained. “We tried to get tickets for Taylor Swift in Toronto next year. But Ticketmaster was… Ticketmaster.”

    “Ah,” Shane said, wincing in immediate sympathy. “Bummer. Aren’t there resale ones, though?”

    Hayden dropped onto the opposite end of the sectional with a beer in hand and snorted.
    “Yeah, for like, the price of a small car. I am not paying that much for a concert.”

    “Why not?” Ilya drawled, turning his head toward Hayden. “You do not have money for resale?”

    Hayden didn’t even look at him. “I have money. I just also have sense.”

    “Ah.” Ilya nodded thoughtfully. “So Montreal paid you so little you must budget carefully. Makes sense. Fifteenth best player on team, yes?”

    “Hey,” Shane said. “Maybe don’t start a fist fight in our living room.”

    Ilya looked up at him, entirely unrepentant.

    “I am helping,” he said. “He says he cannot afford tickets. I am investigating.”

    Hayden scoffed. “You wanna help? You buy them, then.”

    “Okay.” Ilya reached for his phone. “Done."
