    Summary

    “We’ve made a trade,” Coach announces. “For Shane Hollander.”

    It’s like the ground drops out from beneath Ilya, and his heart falls from his chest. It tumbles past rock bottom, down to the cavern that shattered open inside of him on that night five years ago. The night when Ilya walked away from Hollander for the last time.

    He can’t breathe.

    (Or: Shane doesn’t get hurt, they break up, and they don’t talk for five long years. Until Shane is traded to Ottawa.)

    Summary

    “Shane,” Rose says gently. “I don’t think Eva is good for you.”

    Shane sighs into his water glass. This again. You get one shoe thrown at you during an argument, and suddenly everyone thinks you’re being abused.

    Or: Shane ends up dating Rose’s co-star rather than her, and soon finds himself in an abusive relationship. Ilya and Shane's friends need to put aside their differences in order to keep him safe.

    Summary

    “I want one day,” Shane interrupted Ilya’s inner meltdown with, really, the only acceptable response. “And then we can…” Shane trailed off. “Then we can, I don’t know. Reset.”

    “Reset,” Ilya repeated, unconvinced.

    “Yeah.”

    It was another few moments of stunned silence before Ilya spoke again.

    “We could go somewhere.”

    or, what if Shane decided to stay, that night… and then decided to miss his flight home the next day.

    Summary

    “Rozanov needs a place to stay. His visa won’t allow him to go home to Russia over the break, and we don’t have the cash to put him in a hotel.”

    Did the Harvard dorms completely shut down over the winter break? What about the dining hall? Shane supposed he didn’t really know. He’d never stuck around to find out, when he was younger. 

    “Okay?” 

    Coach raised his eyebrows. “So, he’s staying with you.” 

    Shane’s eyes went wide. 

    “What?” 

    “Come on, Captain,” Wiebe looked down his nose at Shane. “Try not to look too thrilled.”

     
    *

     
    or, Shane's a senior captain with an empty house over winter break. and Ilya's the freshman who will be crashing his Christmas.

    Summary

    “Promise me you’re going to break up with him,” Ilya says, the teasing edge in his voice fading into something more serious. “I am very selfish, Shane. I do not want to share what is mine.”

    Shane nods almost immediately. “Tomorrow,” he breathes out. “I’ll break up with him tomorrow.”

    OR

    Shane has never been completely certain about his relationship with his boyfriend. There’s always been a sense that something is missing. But when he meets his boyfriend’s coworker, Ilya Rozanov, he finally understands what that missing piece is, and realizes he’s found it in Ilya.
