Summary
“Can I ask you something?”
There’s a flash of what looks like fear that crosses Ilya's face before he sits back, his posture slightly closed off as his arms cross in front of his chest. “Depends on what it is,” he says, eyes somewhat steely.
She gets why people are intimidated by him on the ice.
“Why Ottawa?” She knows it’s something everyone has been asking, but she feels like it’s a legitimate thing to ask. “I mean, I get maybe you’re not happy in Boston, but you could have gone anywhere.”
“Not anywhere,” he says with an almost pout.
“But almost anywhere.”
He lets out a long breath of air through his nose. “I know it does not make sense, but it should not have to make sense to anyone but me.”
Kate tilts her head to the side, appraising him from across the table. “That’s not an answer.”
Ilya shrugs, but he holds her gaze steadily. “Maybe one day you will understand. But for now, know I am where I am supposed to be.”
And who is she to argue with that?
__
Or, everyone asks 'why Ottawa?' Ilya's neighbor, Kate, just happens to figure it out first.

Summary
“Oh fuck,” Hayden cursed, looking at the mess within the case. Most of the clothes weren’t folded nicely, just flung inside, and it looked like a mess. “What the hell?” Hayden reached in and picked up a floral shirt, frowning at it. It didn’t look like one of Shane’s. Shane was not a floral shirt kind of guy.
Unable to stop himself, Hayden started to pick up and fold some of the clothes within, absolutely certain by now that this wasn’t Shane’s case. He wasn’t sure if it belonged to someone else on the team or if there had been a mix up at the airport or what, but he knew Shane was going to be pissed when he found out. When the top layer of clothes were out of the way, everything suddenly became horrifyingly clear. Yellow text on black fabric that Hayden would know anywhere, that left little doubt in Hayden’s mind who this suitcase belonged to.
“Holy shit.”
*****
When his best friend Shane is injured on the ice, Hayden jumps into action to support him.
When he's asked to fetch some of Shane's things to bring to the hospital, he agrees easily.
What he doesn't expect is to find out some startling truths...

Summary
“It’s not fooling around. It hasn’t been that for a long time. We’re… in a relationship. I love him, Mom.”
Yuna’s eyes flitted between the two men, back and forth, until they rested on Ilya’s. His heart was racing but he was determined to make Shane proud in that moment. “And you love my son?”
“More than anything,” Ilya replied honestly, feeling Shane tangle their fingers together between them. “I did not mean for you to see that.”
“I know, I think we all wish that, Rozanov,” Yuna said with a wry smile.
******
5 times Shane and Ilya are caught out by unsuspecting people around them.
And the 1 time they're caught and don't give a shit.

Summary
His entire body felt tense as the door was pushed open. He trained his eyes on the floor, monologuing before he could stop himself,
“Just so you know, my buddies paid for this dance for me and I’m sure you’re very nice and very pretty and good at what you do but I’m actually gay so you can just- Do what you need to do but I don’t want you to be offended because I’m not as into this as you’re probably…usually…used to…”
He trailed away as he looked up, and met the eyes of the very tall, very broad, very handsome man leaning against the doorframe.
They stared at each other, and Shane blinked, struck dumb.
Or, the night of JJ's bachelor party, Shane is forced into a lap dance he very much does not want. Until he does, and everything changes.
