    Summary

    Ilya chuckles. “You don’t know why the team might be scared of you? You cannot think of any reason?”

    “Scared? Of me?” Shane says.

    “Yes. They adore you. But they are terrified.”

    “But – but why? What did I do?”

    Ilya pretends to think. “Hmm. What did you do? Maybe it was the first Stanley Cup. Or the second. Or the third. Or your MVP wins. Or every single fucking game you have ever played in your life. You are Shane fucking Hollander. Did you forget?”

    ---

    Or, five times Shane scares the Centaurs, and one time he (accidentally) terrifies them.

    Summary

    Cardiac tamponade: pressure on that heart that prevents it from filling and beating adequately.

    Shane thought he knew two things: his move to Ottawa would cause chaos, and that the Ottawa Centaurs were nice.

    As it turned out, he only knew one of those things.

    (Or: the Cens are still a team of professional hockey players. They're going to fuck up.)

    Summary

    "Go away. You’re scaring off paying customers.” Shane almost laughs — Hayden has no idea how true that statement is.

    “What if I am the paying customer, Pike?”

    Shane looks up, startled, and finds Rozanov’s eyes boring into him. The intensity of it is too much, he needs to look anywhere else, so naturally, he chooses Rozanov’s lips. They’re full, pink, a bit chapped, and Shane wonders what that would feel like against his own lips. Or his tongue.

    No. He can not be thinking these things. Especially not about Rozanov. He looks down, fiddling with the zipper of the money bag.

    “In fact,” Rozanov says, and Shane can hear the smirk in his voice. “I will pay the rest of the money you need. How many kisses does that get me?”

    The Montreal High Metros need to raise money. They start a kissing booth. Naturally, Ilya Rozanov gets involved.

    Summary

    As a straight man, Ilya Rozanov has never had a gay roommate before, but it’s going pretty well. Shane Hollander is kind, silly, and an even bigger hockey nut than Ilya.

    So when Shane starts bringing men over, and Ilya begins to want to bash their fucking heads in, Ilya comes to a startling conclusion: He must be homophobic.

    (He’s jealous.)

    Summary

    "Now, now," Ilya calls to the room, walking in from the shower, hair still dripping wet. Shane can see the dark spots from where the droplets landed on his shirt. The idiot hasn't even dried off completely, the wet of his body making his shirt stick. He wants to take a towel and smother him. "Do not stress Hollander out. Is bad for baby."

    Luca makes a confused sound from where he's lacing up his sneakers. The angel that he is, he spares Shane the irritation of not joining whatever nonsense the rest of the guys are cooking up. "Huh? What baby?"

    "Him," he goes to his cubby, starts messing around with his bag, his back to the room. "Hollander is baby."

    "Rozanov." Shane is at the end of his rope. This entire team can burn to the ground for all he cares.

    5 times Shane obliviously sits through Ilya’s affection + 1 time he realizes it
