    Summary

    “I do not want to make you uncomfortable. With how I talk about us. To others. Like . . . reporters. Or how I treat you in front of others, like the guys on the team.”

    Something like understanding settled on Shane’s face now, and it immediately made Ilya’s heart stop racing. “You think I don’t like PDA.”

    “First time I held your hand in public I thought you were going to have a panic attack,” Ilya admitted.

    --

    Or: Shane's first season on the Ottawa Centaurs, as told through five times Ilya initiated PDA (and one time Shane did).

    Summary

    “It’s true,” Rose says. “Shane was an amazing boyfriend. See, that’s what I miss. I just need to find someone who’s an amazing boyfriend and actually wants to sleep with me.”

    “Okay, Rose,” Ilya says. “You have come to right place. I will solve your problem. We will go out and find you straight or bi or pan guy to fuck.”

    Shane groans. “I am not going out to find Rose a guy to fuck.”

    “I know you are not,” Ilya says. “I was not inviting you.”

    ---

    Or, Ilya and Svetlana take Rose out to find her a boyfriend who’s into women. Ilya and Rose are photographed leaving the club together, leading people to speculate that they’re dating.

    Summary

    “Yeah, what the hell?” Comeau echoes. “Since when do you go around defending Rozanov?”
    “I – I’m not,” Hayden says, starting to carefully fold his clothes so he doesn’t have to look anyone in the eye. Maybe Shane is onto something, always folding his things instead of throwing them into his bag. Gives you a moment to concentrate on something manual, to think before having to respond to questions and comments.
    “You literally were defending him right now,” J. J. points out.

    ---

    Four times Hayden defends Ilya Rozanov to other people, and one time he defends Ilya from himself.

    Summary

    “Shane,” Ilya whispers.
    “Yes?”
    “What is wrong?”
    “Nothing,” Shane says. “It’s great.”
    “Hollander. You look like you will throw up or cry into fire. Both will ruin mood.”
