    Summary

    “You know what that sounds like, baby?” Yuna said carefully. “You could lose—”

    “I don’t care!” Shane snapped. “Let everyone think I’m a slut, a whore—I don’t care! I don’t fucking care about my reputation—or, or endorsement money! Don’t tell me I need to represent—”

    “No, baby,” Yuna interrupted softly. “I meant hockey. You could lose hockey.”

    Hockey.

    Shane froze.

    Hockey had run in his blood since he put on his first pair of skates at four. Hockey shaped his brain. Hockey was why he ate, why he moved, why he dreamed. Hockey was how he made a living, how he found joy when he was free. Hockey connected him to everyone he loved. Hockey was what he was good for. Hockey was his name.

    Hockey was the purpose of Shane Hollander’s existence.

    Tears ran silently down his face.

    Inside, he felt strangely hollow.

    “I… want him back,” he managed to choke out. “I need Ilya back here with me. I NEED him safe.”

    OR.

    Ilya was outed at the worst possible time – when he was in Russia. There was nothing they could do to save him. Except one.

    Summary

    “You want to talk to people about me?” Shane asked quietly.

    There was something small and confused in the question. But Ilya was still furious and raw.

    “Well I would,” he sneered, “if there was anything about you that was fucking interesting to talk about! It would be nice to not be so fucking bored and miserable!”

    The second the words left his mouth, he watched the pain roll across Shane's features like a thousand fractures shattering through glass.

    Ilya had seen Shane nearly break ribs. He had seen him miss game-winning shots, take hits that left bruises blooming purple and black across his skin. He had never seen this.

    Shane closed his eyes for a long moment. He shook his head slightly, a tiny movement, then nodded once as if agreeing with something only he could hear. His face twisted briefly with a fresh wave of pain before he forced it to still.

    ---------

    What if Shane and Ilya don't make up so easily after the Boxing Day fight? The Centaur's plane never malfunctions, so Shane never proposes. Instead, Ilya gives him an ultimatum on coming out and going public. It backfires spectacularly.
