Summary
Will Graham has always loved the water. True, he feels more at home swimming in lakes, rivers, and bayous, but his skills are also useful on the high school swim team. It seems like this school year should be different: better maybe, especially when a fellow swimmer -- Hannibal Lecter -- wants to get to know him better.
But Will has a dark secret. He was expelled from his previous school. But why? And what will Hannibal do when he finds out?
From DB: "This is my first collab with ADreamWithinADream" and I will have them added as a co-creator as soon as Ao3 decides to cooperate!"

make me sweat, make me hotter by bisexualbuckley

Summary
Getting a text from Ilya after games was far from out of the ordinary.
Even still, Shane had never gotten a post-game text from Ilya quite like the one he got today:
'Do not shower. Not even deodorant. Go straight home. I am waiting for you.'
Shane isn’t sure what to say. But. This is his fiancé’s order. And his fiancé is basically never wrong about anything (not that Shane would ever let him know), especially when it comes to sex. The fact that Ilya is demanding he come home right away makes Shane smile to himself. Ilya is so sexy when he’s possessive and impatient. They haven’t seen each other in three whole weeks.
So, despite the fact that Shane pushed himself incredibly hard tonight, sweating up a storm as he won his team the game in OT, Shane doesn’t shower.
OR; ilya has a thing for the way shane's sweat smells. lucky for him, shane is kinda in love with this freak.

Summary
“What are you doing here?"
He’s thankful his voice doesn’t shake, but he’s trembling. And he knows Ilya notices. Even all these years later, he’s sure he can still read Shane like a fucking book.
Ilya’s smile softens and he points to the ice, where the player whose eyes had brought Shane back to Before lines up with the other boys.
“My son."
Ilya never goes to the cottage. Nearly two decades later, they meet again.

Summary
“Listen, I know the sweater is ugly, but it’s rude to stare,” Shane said peevishly. He was overstimulated and wanted to go home, the last thing he needed was some dickhead staring at him.
Ilya took a long drag of his cigarette, eyes still not leaving Shane.
“Maybe staring is not bad thing,” Ilya said. “Maybe I stare because you are very pretty.”
Shane floundered before he could form real words. “Well. That’s stupid.”
“The staring? Or you being very pretty?”Or: A meet-ugly turned friends with benefits frat boy college au. Shane is convinced he’s nothing more than just another hookup on Ilya’s extensive roster. Ilya’s spent his whole summer plotting on how best to lock Shane down. Misunderstandings, emotional constipation, and terrible communication skills have nothing on Ilya Rozanov's persistence when it comes to getting his man.

Emergency contact by heartsmadeofbooks

Summary
“Why are you here?” Ilya asked, very quietly.
It still felt like a slap.
Shane must have let out a sound of some sort, because Ilya turned to look at him, finally.
“Did not mean it like that,” Ilya said. “Just… surprised.”
Shane shifted awkwardly from one foot to the next, as if he was suddenly coming to the realization that he had no right to be here at all. “I got a call from the hospital,” he explained. “They told me I’m your emergency contact.”
“Sorry,” Ilya said, in such a quiet voice it was almost impossible to hear him. “I forgot to change it.”
Shane could only frown. That did not make him any less confused. “I guess I just… I don’t understand why you put me down as your emergency contact in the first place. It’s not like we…”
Ilya took a couple of deep breaths. It looked like they were painful. His eyes slid away from Shane, like he couldn’t bear to look at him. “Did not have anyone else,” he admitted, and now his voice was the smallest Shane had ever heard it, like Ilya was trying to disappear as the words left him. “I’m sorry.”--
Or: Ilya has a car accident. Shane is his emergency contact... even though they're no longer seeing each other.

Concussion Protocol by cjr2

Summary
Instead of Shane, it is Ilya who suffers a concussion during the Boston-Montreal game in April 2017. Dazed and agitated, Ilya briefly starts speaking and responding only in Russian and the medics can’t calm him down. Luckily, Shane started studying Russian after Ilya spoke to him in Russian on the phone from Moscow. For no particular reason. Certainly not because he’s fallen in love with Ilya Rozanov.
In Montreal with lingering concussion symptoms, Ilya is advised not to fly home for a few days, and the hospital won’t release him without assurances that he has someone to stay with him until his symptoms improve. Luckily, Shane conveniently has a condo in Montreal no one knows about and a few days before he has to travel again.
But Ilya’s symptoms don’t resolve after a few days. Which is okay; Shane can handle it. He can take care of Ilya, study Russian, lead his team into the playoffs, and keep Ilya’s continued presence in Montreal a secret. He can do everything, no problem. He is Shane Hollander after all.
