    Summary

    “What is there to talk about?”

    “What’s there to talk about?!” Hollander scoffed, shaking his head. “You’re playing for my fucking team!”

    “I know.”

    “Why did you have to go and get traded?! You realise we’re going to have to see each other every day from now on, and play together, and-”

    “Yes,” Ilya interrupted. He didn’t want to know how long Hollander’s list was. “I know.”

    Hollander took a deep breath. “Okay, listen,” he said. “Just so we’re clear - we don’t know each other outside of playing against each other, right?”

    “Right.”

    “And we can’t- can’t hook up anymore.”

    OR: Ilya gets traded to Montreal in October 2014. He's lonely, and angry, and he misses Boston. He doesn't know if it helps that Hollander is there or not.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander was perfect; the perfect son, the perfect boyfriend, the perfect friend. He had spent years refining perfection, making sure he was the picture of it. It was second nature after all these years; a suit that didn’t quite fit, but that he’d gotten used to.
    Enter Ilya Rozanov.

    Summary

    “…You want to?” he asks.

    Shane blinks. “What?”

    “Kiss someone.”

    The question makes Shane’s brain short circuit.

    Shane swallows. “I mean—yeah.”

    “Then why haven’t you?”

    “I don’t know.” Shane shrugs again, shoulders tight. “Timing. People. It’s just… not something I think about like that.”

    That’s not entirely true.

    He does think about it. Just in a different way. Abstractly. Like something other people do, but not he himself.

    Ilya watches him for a long moment.

    “I could show you.”

    Summary

    Shane Hollander lands his breakout role opposite Ilya Rozanov in a buzzy rivals-to-lovers adaptation. Their on-screen chemistry is electric & their off-screen “practice” is supposed to be no strings attached. When the show airs, the internet starts paying attention & all the lines start to blur.

    Or…what if Shane & Ilya were actors who met on the set of a TV show, have to deal with fame & semi-unhinged fandom, and are still idiots falling in love.

     ——————————————————

    “Can I ask you something?” Ilya said.
    Shane’s stomach flipped. “Okay.”
    Ilya hesitated, then said, “Have you ever been with a man?”

    “But,” Ilya added, studying him, “I know you, Shane Hollander.”
    “You do?”
    “You want it to be perfect,” Ilya said simply. “You want to be the best one in the room. Every time.”

    “For authenticity,” Shane said, clinging to the word.
    Ilya’s mouth curved. “Exactly,” he said. “If that helps.”
    ...
    “I’m not saying you need to,” Ilya added. Then the smirk slipped back in to place. “But if you ever decide you want to...I’m here and willing.”
