Fics like before you cross the street, take my hand

November, 1985 "You have a light?" David Hollander looks up from rummaging in his hockey bag and sees the most beautiful woman he has ever laid eyes on with an unlit cigarette between her fingers. Her long black hair is tied up in a ponytail but her bangs frame her face, which is golden tan against her white turtleneck. She arches an eyebrow after a moment and he realizes he's been staring with his mouth hanging open. "I… no, sorry. I don't smoke." "Ugh. Athletes," she sighs, putting her cigarette back into the pack. She leans back against the brick, her breath visible in the cold air. She surveys him with eyes the colour of coffee and he has never been more awake in his life. "You're Hollander, right? Left winger?" "That's me, yeah. You a big hockey fan?" "The biggest." Her mouth curves up into a smile. David feels like he's been jolted into the boards. _____ Shane was never meant to be an only child.
