    Summary

    What if Ilya answered the phone call from his brother when Shane was at his house. What if Shane could be there for him and how would it have changed their relationship moving forward?

    ------

     

    Shane didn’t hear from Ilya again for the rest of the day.  He had just crawled into bed, and was about to slip on his glasses on to read the book from his bedside table when his phone buzzed

    The message he found when he opened their thread was not what he expected

    Lily:  I think you packed wrong shirt by mistake.

    The photo was Ilya’s hands holding Shane’s white t-shirt.  He stared at the picture as heat rose to his cheeks, biting his lower lip as he tried to figure out what he should respond.  Before he could start typing another message appeared.

    Lily: This one is too small for me.

    Shane scowled, his embarrassment quickly turning to annoyance.

    Jane: It is not.  We are the same size.

    Lily: Uh, no.  We are not.  I am bigger than you.

    Jane: Asshole. You are not.

    Lily: You have seen me without shirt.  Do not pretend.

    Summary

    He’s standing across from Ilya in his kitchen. Their feet are almost touching, Ilya’s in black socks that Shane also has multiple pairs of, Shane’s in his favourite soft striped ones. The rain is getting louder outside, moving from a drizzle to a downpour. And Ilya is looking at him like he loves him.

    Summary

    Five times Ilya lied (but not really) to his teammates about Shane, and one time he didn’t have to.

    Inspired by two Cliff Marlow lines: In the airport, when their game with Montreal gets cancelled and he tells Ilya, “Whoever she is, she’s gonna get over it,” and the scene in the locker room when he says, “Wow, this Montreal girl works you up, brother—you’re straight up blushing, Roz.”

    Or, the Boston Bears’ perspective of Ilya and Shane’s “secret” relationship over the years
