Summary
Ilya is slammed into the boards with a viciousness that pulls his shoulder right out of its socket. Normally, he would pop it back in and knock his opponent flat. Normally, he would dismiss it without complaint, scowl, and move on. He's Russian in a way that's proud, and he's a man in a way that's stupid, and he's a hockey player. This time, he does not get up for several minutes. Dizzy. Disoriented. And pulled off the ice for the rest of the final period. Then the hospital calls her, his “emergency contact.”
Two words like that are enough to rearrange something inside her instantly and permanently. She goes to him without thinking. There is no version of herself that does not go. It’s a little different after that.

OR: How Svetlana and Ilya's relationship evolves over the years, eventually making space for Shane Hollander.
