Summary
In 2003, Shane Hollander is assigned a PenPal, and gains a friend. A friend who smokes, calls him boring, and gives him ridiculous nicknames.
Across the world, Ilya Rozanov practices his English with a curious Canadian boy whose name he can't fucking remember.
Or, before they were Canada's Shane Hollander and Russia's Ilya Rozanov, they were Cat and Elijah. Shane has no reason to suspect his childhood PenPal is his hockey rival, and Ilya has never even considered that the man he's falling for is also the boy he already fell in love with through letters and postcards.

Summary
"Are you Russian?" Shane turned and said, a little too loud.
Ilya laughed and lowered his head to the bed. That was a very cute laugh. "What gave me away?" He straightened up and looked at Shane.
"The accent. I'm sorry, um... It's hot, actually." Fuck, why would he say that?
"Is okay. Are you gay?" Ilya crossed his arms and looked at Shane with a smirk that went straight to his dick.
"Uh... I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to ask me that." Shane turned red in an instant. "I didn't mean anything when I said it's hot. I'm sorry." He was messing this up so badly he should just pack and go back home.
"Stop apologizing. I know I'm hot, yes." Ilya finished making the bed and got closer to Shane, leaning on his desk. "You are hot too. We can tell each other that, since we are both straight." He lowered his head back and winked. Fucking winked. What an asshole.
"I'm... I'm not—"
"So, gay?"
—————————
Freshman year was supposed to be simple: get out of Ottawa, get drunk, get laid. Then Shane met his hot Russian neighbor, who very helpfully announced that he was straight.
Shane believed him right up until he walked in on Ilya with another man's mouth on his dick.

You Would've Been the One by broccolicheddarchicken

Summary
Shane would always be yearning for something with a man who didn't want him, wouldn't he? A little positive attention and he'd folded like origami. Pathetic.
"Stay," Rozanov said. It sounded like pleading. That trick had worked on him, once.
“Why?" Shane's tone was more biting than he intended. "What do you think is going to happen if I stay? Are you gonna make me a goddamned tuna melt?”
Rozanov, to his credit, took the words like the blow they were. His eyes widened, then he covered his face with his palms and muttered something in Russian.
Shane had never seen shame written across those features before.
In April 2017, Shane Hollander suffers the most painful not-breakup he’ll ever experience. Months later, he's outed. Two years after that, a broken knee ends his career.
When Rozanov unexpectedly crosses Shane's path four years later, Shane resolves to be courteous yet keep his distance. But Ilya is just as beautiful and charming as he ever was, and he’s determined to give what they'd once shared a second chance. A real chance.
It's a bad idea. Shane knows it's a bad idea.
The terrifying thing is that it doesn't feel like one.

Summary
“You shouldn’t be smoking here.” Shane can’t help turning on his “Captain” voice.
The man’s eyes flick up to Shane’s face. And holy shit he’s hot. Curling blonde hair, flashing eyes, and a jawline that could cut glass. He’s also clearly pissed off. He takes another drag from the cigarette and blows smoke from the side of his mouth, away from Shane and the entrance.
Or
Irina and Ilya Rozanov leave Moscow when he’s 13 and move to Boston. Ilya stops playing hockey and becomes a doctor of emergency medicine.Shane Hollander was the number one draft pick and is now the Captain of the Boston Bears.
One night, they meet.
