“Easy for you to say,” Shane grumbled. “Your mom hasn’t been texting all week with stressful details about this damn camp.”
Ilya’s hands dropped to his sides. “No,” he said quietly. “She has not.”
Shane FUCK YOU

These were the guys who were supposed to have his back. They’d won a cup together last year and fought like hell all season for another one. Some of these men had played with Shane for over ten seasons. It made him sick that they were so quick to believe him to be a traitor.

“I’m the same friend you’ve always had. And I’ll still be the same when I’m Ilya’s husband. I swear I’m normal.”

“I have no one,” Ilya said. “No one I can talk to about us”
“You wouldn’t even choose me, would you?” Ilya said. “If it is between me and hockey.”
“Of course I would,” Shane said, though not as confidently as Ilya would have liked.
💔💔SHUT. THE. FUCK. UP.

Ilya’s jaw clenched. He knew all too well Shane had no intention of going public about their relationship, but if there had even been a chance and Crowell had crushed it...

Then, he went inside, closed the door, and burst into tears.

“Hayden said I look at you with heart eyes”
“I look at you and I am just...” Ilya opened and closed his fist several times in front of his chest. “My heart goes crazy, you know?”

Shane was so sure Ilya was going to die in a crash. It was annoying.

He was loved. But he wasn’t sure he deserved to be. He couldn’t make himself believe that. Not right now.
He wished Shane was with him. They’d only been apart for two days, but Ilya would give anything to have Shane in his arms right now.
Early the next morning, Shane woke to find a missed text on his phone, sent after one A.M.
SHUT UP💔💔 my baby Illya

Kiss me, Ilya wanted to say. Kiss me and hold me in front of all these people. Pull me onstage and do it. I don’t care anymore. Please. I’m dying.
