    Summary

    “You are my friend, Hayden, but he is the man I am going to spend the rest of my life with - he is the man that I love. I will choose him over you, every fucking time.”

    Over anything and everything, Shane would choose Ilya. Even over hockey, if it came to that. There’s no doubt in his mind, no question about it.

    Losing hockey would hurt, and Shane would grieve it, but it wouldn’t kill him. It would be an ache he could live with. Losing Ilya is not something that Shane could ever survive. They’re so tangled together - so intertwined - that to lose Ilya would be to lose himself.

    Summary

    Shane pats Parker’s shoulder, such a genuine gesture that Ilya wonders where he’s going with this. “Do a favor for me?” He leans in a little closer, physically blocking Parker from seeing Ilya.

    “What?”

    Shane’s smile fades away. His voice is stern, final when he answers. “Get back to your team, and step the fuck away from my husband?”

    He doesn't bother to mince his words. Not tonight, with Ilya being as exhausted as he is, and not with Ilya being uncomfortable. He rarely gets to see him this outwardly protective. He expected Shane to come over, grab his hand and lead him away from the booth with some random excuse. But this—this is Shane losing his patience for all of those manners. His only concern is Ilya.

    —a collection of moments where Shane takes care of Ilya during a depressive episode.

    Summary

    “Okay,” Shane interrupts his train of thought, and Ilya blinks back to reality. They’re standing in a gaudy little gift shop, nowhere near their terminal. “You need to tell me what’s going on. I can’t help you if you don’t tell me, Ilya.”

    Fuck. Shane is looking at him so expectantly that Ilya can’t even scramble for a lie, can’t find a joke to put his husband at ease. And so, because they both signed the marriage certificate and they both made promises, Ilya makes the impossible decision to be honest.

    ”I don’t know,” He says, pursing his lips, looking stubbornly at the floor. “I am scared, maybe. Anxious. I don’t know why. Or for what.”

    Shane doesn’t say anything, not for a few seconds; Ilya can feel his brown eyes boring into him, searching him for some unspoken answer, even as Ilya himself keeps his gaze square on the scuffed-up floor of the gift shop.

    Or: Ilya is suddenly scared of flying. Shane wants to find out why.

    Summary

    “We’re just, well-“ Choui hedges, then glances round as if he’s looking for back up.

    “We’re worried that you’re a bit too controlling,” Hayes blurts out. “Of Rozanov.”

    Shane opens his mouth to respond, but he closes it again when he realises he has no fucking idea what to say. He’s - what?

    "Please, Rozanov, just tell me what's going on." It is so earnest, so gentle, and Ilya does not deserve it. "Don't leave without—"

    "Hollander," Ilya pleads for him to stop, puts out his hand as a peace offering.

    "Ilya.
