Deep Misunderstanding by some1_around
Fandoms: Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid, Heated Rivalry (TV)

Summary
“Am I a bad friend?”
Hayden has always been the guy Shane joked with, the guy he trusted to feed him without mocking him, the guy he roomed with on the road, and Shane is the only man who has ever seen Hayden cry, and Hayden loves Shane. He fucking loves him. They are like brothers, and they have been for almost ten fucking years. He’s always been Shane’s guy, Shane’s best friend.
Except all along, maybe that wasn’t true. Ilya Rozanov, apparently, had been the guy. Before Hayden had ever met Shane, Ilya Rozanov had been there. And Hayden had never even noticed.
Shane is all over every inch of Hayden’s life. Hayden thought that was reciprocal.

“You know I think about you all the time,
And my deep misunderstanding of your life,
And how bad it must have been for you back then,
And how hard it was to keep it all inside.” -

Summary
"I have been thinking."
Shane lifts his head off the pillow only as much as necessary to turn his face toward Ilya. Ilya continues to trace nonsensical lines and shapes on Shane's bare back, leaving a trail of tingles in his wake.
"Hmm?"
"I have been thinking. I think I will retire at end of season."
Shane and Ilya are turning 40. Things are changing. Shane's not handling it well.

Summary
Wyatt was not, like, nosy. For sure, he was interested. He was curious. He engaged with people, obviously, because most people were interesting and engaging and had cool thoughts and said neat stuff if you asked.
So, no. Wyatt wasn’t nosy, but he wasn’t stupid, either.

Summary
Bleeding in the car of his long-lost father’s wife, who has taken a shine to him, Shawn West reflects on what got him to this moment – and how things are not what they seem within the Buckley family.
Everything seemed cosmic to him in that moment, the sea swelling and crashing out when Adam grabbed his face and kissed him. They were on the Ferris wheel, and the Ferris wheel kept turning even as the world stopped.
But when they came down to Earth, and were all out of tokens to go around again, they found themselves surrounded by a familiar group of eight who still smelled of locker room and too much Calvin Klein Obsession body spray.
“If you can’t run, you have to fight,” his mother told him when he was thirteen and bloody-faced. Gently, she’d pressed a cold washcloth to his split lip while he sat on the edge of the bathtub, shivering from the shock of being punched. “But if you can run, always run. Run, run, run.”
