I’ll Believe in Anything (Except That) by Vardic

Summary
In another timeline, Shane and Ilya hook up in room 1410, nothing goes wrong, and everything plays out exactly as we know it.
In this one, Yuna Hollander walks in before Ilya can leave—and the seven-year situationship never gets the chance to start. Instead, through the power of miscommunication, Shane and Ilya start dating in 2010. With better support, they make better decisions. Their rivalry fizzles out before it ever has the chance to fully ignite, replaced instead by a beloved “bromance". In 2015, they come out to the NHL and the world.
No one believes them.
Or: Somehow, despite Shane and Ilya being out for two years, Scott Hunter is still considered the first openly gay player in the NHL, much to Ilya’s horror.

Bookmarker's Notes
“I always wanted..." Ilya paused and swallowed roughly. "You showed me Ottawa. I have dreamt about showing you Russia. Taking you to restaurants, eating food, and bringing you to places I liked growing up. You will not be in Moscow, and Sochi is… it is very different from the city I grew up in. But…” Ilya trailed off, not quite sure what he was trying to say.

Summary
At home, the earthy scent of beets, and sunshine filtering through the Venetian blinds. Ilya at the stove and Shane passed out on the sofa, both glistening with perspiration: three fans, however strategically placed, could do only so much to keep the scalding heat at bay.
***
By conventional standards, Scott Hunter was an accomplished individual - crème de la crème of ice hockey, top one percent earner, three times winner of the Lady Byng trophy for gentlemanly conduct and co-founder of two charities. His pride and joy, however, were Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov, the latest addition to the New York Admirals’ roster. They were also, incidentally, his lovers. And since they’d decided he was theirs, he’d do everything in his power to be deserving of their affection. Anything, facing his worst fear.
But how can he live in the present when the past and the future are stacked against him? And how can he keep loving them if it might harm them?

Summary
“I’m sorry, but my answer is no. Someone else might be willing to switch if you ask.”
“I can’t believe—this is unacceptable! I’m going to call the flight attendant over and get this sorted out right now!”
Flustered and cornered, Shane injects his Captain Voice into the conversation. “Ma’am, I understand that you’re upset, but I paid for this seat and am going to stay here. You’ll have to find someone else willing to change places or just fly with the seat you booked. I’m sorry I couldn’t help you.”
She hisses like a goddamn tea kettle, and starts to say, “You are the most selfish man I’ve ever—” when another voice behind her says, “You are blocking my seat. Move.”
Shane and the woman turn to assess the new arrival. It turns out that his seat partner is well above six feet tall, ripped as hell, and knows how to deliver an excellent bitch face. He’s also the hottest man that Shane has ever seen in real life, including a chance run-in with Jensen Ackles at a Stars game.
Or, still!famous Shane meets non!famous Ilya on a cursed flight from Ottawa to Boston and kind of (totally) falls in love with him at first sight (and first chirp)

Summary
Four months ago, when Shane Hollander agreed to tattoo a tramp stamp on Boston’s star center, Ilya Rozanov, he certainly wasn’t expecting to get an almost-boyfriend out of the ordeal.
Good thing Ottawa is just a short drive.
