    Summary

    Sometimes life came at you with a clenched fist and Ilya had never figured out how to duck.

    So here he was, twenty-eight years old, single, dealing with the fallout from injuries given to him by the game he loved, and the second youngest assistant coach in the league to one of the worst teams. Stability was hard to come by, but he was managing.

    Then along came Shane Hollander to knock him on his ass, one more time.

    Summary

    Wyatt was not, like, nosy. For sure, he was interested. He was curious. He engaged with people, obviously, because most people were interesting and engaging and had cool thoughts and said neat stuff if you asked.

    So, no. Wyatt wasn’t nosy, but he wasn’t stupid, either.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    As the lights turn green, the car in front of them stays stationary for a few seconds too long, and TK wonders whether he should let Isa get out of the car to berate them for being distracted and dangerous. As Carlos bites his lip and looks hesitantly at the steering wheel, making an assessment as to whether or not to beep, TK hears an exaggerated huff from the backseat.

    “Oh my god,” Hugo says, in an absolutely perfect imitation of TK’s exasperated tone, “just fucking go!”
