    Summary

    “We could’ve had everything,” Shane admitted softly.

    The confession hurt more than he expected.

    “A real relationship. A family. A future.” His eyes drifted toward the planes outside again before he exhaled slowly. “But dreams eventually end.” A small, tired smile pulled at his mouth. “And this is me waking up.”

    Summary

    Shane Hollander didn't mean to become a gay icon, he meant to become a hockey player. The gay thing was just...incidental, or whatever. Who better to help him cope with this mixed bag of deeply complicated emotions and inadvertent responsibility while introducing Shane to the joyous parts of Queer Culture than a group chat with queer hockey players and the substantially better halves?

    Summary

    Ilyas face softens, but he remains quiet. When he doesn’t respond, Shane takes it as his cue to keep talking, words spilling out of his mouth before his thoughts can catch up. “Maybe I was ok keeping this from them when we were just hooking up, but now you’re here and I told you I love you and they don’t know their only son is in love, they don’t even know I’m gay or that this guy I’m in love with—this asshole hockey player—*my* asshole hockey player is actually so kind and funny and sweet. I want them to know you. And I want them to know the real me.”

     

    Or: What if Shane's dad never walked in on him and Ilya kissing at the cottage, but they still end up coming out to Shane's parents anyway?
