Intro
Since their rookie season Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov have been pitted against each other. They’re the faces of the NHL, arch rivals. But behind closed doors… they’re more than that. The complete opposite, actually. They haven’t put a label to what’s going on between them, but they have something real. Even if they can’t tell the public.
After a 3-1 loss against the Boston Raiders on January 12th, 2015, Shane is… not that upset. He’s a little frustrated, sure. But Guest is on the way to Shane’s apartment, and he’s buzzing with anticipation and something he refuses to identify as love or happiness. He rearranges the throw pillows, dims the lights until he finds what he thinks makes the setting perfect, and changes his shirt three different times. Then, the doorbell rings.
