    Summary

    To be clear, Ilya is grateful the rookies aren’t growing up the way he did in the NHL. Ilya took the hazing to the chin – humiliation rituals, beat downs, grueling practices to prove he could “hang” with the big guns on the team.

    That being said, there’s still some part of Ilya that balks at the request by the gaggle of rookies to watch The Iron Giant, a veritable children’s movie at the team’s latest movie night.

    OR: Five times Shane and Ilya were the support system for the Centaur rookies they dreamed of having when they were younger.

    Summary

    “If the plums are good, we will get them,” he assures her and she smiles in relief.

    “Kay Daddy.” She goes back to looking at the numerous, colorful brands of cereal around them in the aisle. Shane sighs, one hand pressed against the underside of his swollen belly as a barrage of movement steals his focus momentarily. 

    He’s so distracted by the movement of their baby within, that it takes him a second to realize the gentle presence of his daughter has disappeared from his side. He turns, so quickly that it makes his hip muscles pull uncomfortably, trying to spot her in the aisle.

    His heart lodges in his throat when he realizes she is no longer even in the same aisle.

    “Ren?” he chokes out, feet moving in the direction of the aisle’s edge, hoping to god she’s somewhere extremely nearby and he’s just missing her. The hurried waddle to the end of the aisle feels like it takes an eternity, his heart racing, sweat beading on his forehead, pulse stuttering.

    Fuck, what is she wearing right now? What color is her shirt? Oh, fuck, what if he has to tell the police what she was last seen in? What if he- what if she’s-

    Would you chose me over hockey, Hollander?

    Summary

    “Roz is lucky to have you.” Marleau says after a while. Shane frowns at him, Marleau giving him a shy smile.

    “He’s like my brother, we kinda grew up together in a way… He’s really lucky that he’s got you.” Shane gives him a small smile.

    “Thank you, I’m lucky to have him.”

     

    Or, Ilya has epilepsy and Shane will look after him whenever he needs, and Cliff is just a good friend.

    Summary

    Then Ilya reached over and gently tapped Logan’s nose. “You never told us what you wished for.”

    Logan’s eyes widened immediately. “Oh.”

    Shane smiled softly. “You know, when you blew out your candles?”

    For a moment Logan looked suspicious, like perhaps wishes were classified information. Then he leaned closer dramatically. “I wished for Isla.”

    Silence.

    Shane blinked. “…Who’s Isla, baby?”

    Logan looked at him like this should’ve been obvious. “My baby.”

    Or Shane and Ilya give Logan the sibling he wished for on his third birthday.
