waltzing back into rekindled flames

Summary:

Shane Hollander, world-famous singer and superstar, appears to have it all, especially with his new album coming out in just under a month. His fans are obsessed. With his music, with his style, with his straight-out-of-a-movie romance with Mateo Gomez, Hollywood darling.

Too bad it’s all a lie.

Ilya Rozanov has everything he wants except the boy he loves. It would be fine, except Shane got big right after the two of them broke up, and now he sees his stupid ex on every fucking billboard in Boston. Fuck Shane and his perfect fucking life, honestly.

Or, Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov dated for 2 years back when Shane lived in Boston to start his music career of all things and Ilya was a rookie for the Bears. Then they broke up, and Shane moved to LA, and now both of them are as happy as can be living their life 3,000 miles apart. At least, that’s what they want the other to think. Everything stays the same until Shane releases his new album loml, and Ilya is forced to reconsider.

Told almost exclusively through social media.

Notes:

MUSIC IS FOR EVERYONE

 

Podcast transcript, 4/19, 4:05 pm EST 

 

Jana: Welcome back to Music Is For Everyone! I’m your host Jana Daily..

 

Bridget: And I’m your other host, Bridget Metcalf. 

 

Jana: Now, dear listeners, if you haven’t kept up with the tea this week, well…I honestly don’t know what to tell you.

 

Bridget: Girl, you’re nicer than me. I’d say: What rock are you living under? On Saturday morning, at 3 AM EST–

 

Jana: Which, let me tell ya, is honestly really out of character for him–

 

Bridget: Bitch, let me finish. At 3 AM Eastern, Shane Hollander announced his next album, titled–and I’m not even joking–LOVE OF MY LIFE 

Jana: I could scream! This is the cutest shit I’ve ever seen. Oh. My. Fucking God. 

 

Bridget: Now, this release was abnormal for a few reasons. First of all, 3 AM?

 

Jana: No, that part was honestly SO weird. Isn’t Shane like notorious for going to bed super early every night? I think I saw it on that Vogue video, and I’ve definitely watched that a few times. 

 

Bridget: Ok, let’s come back to that. To me, I think the bigger issue is that he literally did it with no warning? Everybody knows that Shane leaves like a million easter eggs and hints before he drops an album release date, but this time there were like none?? 

 

Jana: I totally agree!! Normally I at least see speculation on Twitter or something, but this time there was literally nothing. So odd. 

 

Bridget: Yesss. And then there’s also the thing about how he literally hasn’t done anything official in nearly a year, and his first time back is when he announces an album will be dropping in less than a month. Suspicious if you ask me. 

 

Jana: To be honest, I really do think maybe he, like, bypassed his management or something to release this album? It’s just way more spontaneous than our king is usually known for. 

 

Bridget: I could definitely see something like that happening. Maybe Mateo proposed or something like that? Hahaha, I just know this is going to be his sweetest album yet. 

 

Jana: Now that’s one thing we can agree on.

ESPN NHL Playoffs Broadcast: Round 2, Boston Bears vs. Buffalo Sabres 

 

Steve: Well, starting the third period of this game, I can certainly tell ya it’s been electric if you haven’t been watching at all. 

 

Jim: I couldn’t agree more, Steve. Honestly, both teams are looking just phenomenal out there. It’s just some great hockey. 

 

Steve: It’s also some rough hockey, tonight in Boston, as Captain Ilya Rozanov sends a third player flying over the boards into his own bench! 

 

Jim: Oof. That one’s gotta hurt. Rozanov’s been playing some just breathtaking hockey so far in this series and especially against Montreal. 

 

Steve: I mean, he always plays some great hockey, Jim, but it has definitely been on another level the last few games. 

 

Jim: In both his roughness and his aggression. I think he’s gotten into nearly as many fights and power plays goals, and that’s hard to do for someone of his caliber! 

 

Steve: It really is, Jim. Oh! And there he goes again, off on a breakaway. Roz shoots and HE SCORES! 3-1 Boston early in the third here folks. Stick around for some more great hockey.
