    Summary

    Out of anyone, Mack probably picked the wrong guy to bite his lip and bat his eyelashes at. Tom is nice, but Mack has watched him snap to violence several times. For some reason, right now the thought sparks heat in his belly. Maybe he wants to hurt, maybe he wants to do something reckless and futile and get shoved up against a wall—in passion, in disgust—Mack doesn't really care right now.

    Nothing will hurt more than losing today.

    or; mack and tom in the aftermath of the gold medal game

    Summary

    The photo of Connor post his morning workout, hair curling at the ends from sweat and one arm raised in a way that pulls his shirt up just enough for a glimpse of his abs to show, disappears from Macklin's screen as he contemplates what to write.
    As he thinks, he absentmindedly licks at his lips. His mouth is oddly dry, but Macklin doesn't think too much of it, attributing it to the hard practice they've just had.
    He really needs to rehydrate.
    gross haha, he eventually texts back, send that to your puck bunnies bro

    (Macklin is an idiot until he's not and Team Canada collectively agrees that Connor has the patience of a saint, now with a follow up chapter to explore the aftermath of the gold medal game)

    Summary

    Will loses a bet. Mack loses his mind.

    He realizes now, in retrospect, that perhaps all of this was a mistake on his part. Because the reality of Will being pressed all along his side, laughing into a Sprite, looking comfortable as anything amongst their teammates and the WAGs while wearing a slinky, strappy black dress with a high slit that shows off his fucking shaved legs....

    Mack may have underestimated what this would fucking do to him.

    Summary

    A rookie's bad hit sends Ilya into the boards during the Boston-Montreal game. Shane's three weeks of broken Russian are barely enough to calm him down, but it's something.

    But when the scans reveal something much worse, Shane and Ilya have to figure out how to be there for each other in ways totally unforeseen.

    Or: nothing like facing mortality for two idiots in love to be honest about how they really feel!

    Summary

    As soon as his agent picks up, Macklin spills the tea while it’s still piping hot.

    “Is there anything in my contract about… physical relationships with staff or, like, people in the organisation?” Macklin blurts out.

    There is a very pregnant pause. “People in the organisation?” His agent repeats slowly. “What did you do, Mack?”

    “Nothing,” Mack says, too quickly to sound convincing. “Just… hypothetically.”

    ___

    Or, Macklin spends the hottest night of his life with a pretty boy whose blond curls are nothing short of gorgeous. The next morning, he finds out that he just slept with the son of the man who owns the San Jose Sharks. He does not handle it well.
