    Summary

    Shane felt a rushing in his ears as everything in him dropped. Ilya was hurt.

    The world tilted, lurched sideways, and he grabbed onto the sink for balance as his phone went clattering to the tiled floor.

    He couldn’t breathe. Something vice-like had clamped around his lungs and was compressing the air out of his body, closing up his throat. Someone somewhere was gasping, an ugly wet and rattling kind of sound that echoed in the high-ceiling room.

    OR
    Ilya gets jumped outside the ep. 4 nightclub and Shane is Ilya's emergency contact. He doesn't handle it well. They both have a lot of feelings.

    Summary

    It's 2016.

    Shane Hollander. 25. Fresh off his second, consecutive Stanley Cup win. Captain of the Montreal Voyageurs.

    An omega, too, though Hollander would never verbally express how much the media ticked him off whenever reporters bring up that fact despite the hard look in his eyes. The first known omega in the NHL. He was a trailblazer, but not by choice. 6 months prior to the second Stanley Cup win, his team rallied around him when some nosy nurse leaked his medical records to the internet.

    Ilya Rozanov, 19, a rookie with the Boston Bears, and an alpha, can't wait to play against his hero. They say never meet your heroes, but Shane Hollander has always been an exception.

    Summary

    “I can lock anyone down, anytime. Would be no problem for me,” Ilya huffs.
    “Anyone?!”
    “Yes, Bood, anyone. I would bet on it.”
    “Oh now that could be interesting!” Hayes interjects, sitting forward, “would you really bet anything?! Even if we got to pick the person?”
    “Yes, of course. Will be easy for me,” Ilya drawls.
    “It’s a deal,” says Barrett, “we’re confident you won’t be able to win this.”
    Hayes turns his head and points, “and there’s your target, now, Roz!”

    Or, Ilya enters into a bet with his team that he can get Shane Hollander to ask him to be his boyfriend within a month.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander spends twenty years learning to survive masculinity. This is the record of what it takes from him.
    Three parts, covering minor hockey through the outing: the system, the performance, the collapse. And Ilya Rozanov, who was there through all of it.

    Summary

    TL;DR: It's like Friends meets Almost Famous with HR incidents and better oatmeal continuity.

    Shane Hollander is a freelance concert photographer with a day job at a camera shop, a bank account in active distress, and a long-standing professional fixation on Ilya Rozanov, front man of the Russian rock band Rozanov. Professional. Definitely professional.

    For years, Shane has shot Ilya from the pit: first three songs, no flash, get the shot, get out. Then Rozanov’s lead guitarist gets arrested at the border, the tour starts rearranging itself around disaster, and Shane finds himself getting closer to the machine than any photographer is supposed to get.

    A photo pass becomes a backstage pass. A backstage pass becomes a job. Access becomes proximity.

    And proximity, unfortunately, has consequences.
