- Spent an entire conversation cutting an Apple into slices and handing them to J.J. without even noticing (J.J. is a bit confused but he does like apples so who is he to complain)

- Pats Shane on his back after he finished his meal. "Hayden...dude are you trying to fucking burp me-" "Shit fuck sorry! It's a habit!"

- One of the girls put a nightlight in his duffle bag (because obviously their Dad needs one to sleep if they do!) and Hayden plugged it in without really thinking about it. Shane just side eyes him like, dude if that's what you need to sleep well before a game against New York fine but that is a choice??

- Grabbed both Shane and J.J.'s hands when the Airport was particularly crowded. Got teased about that for the next three away games.

- Notices Shane's shoe is untied and gets on his knees and tying his laces for him before realizing what he's doing. "Uh, Hayden?" Shane asks, wide eyed, having not even noticed that his shoe was untied. Hayden blushes.

"Sorry, dude. Habit. I'll try not to do it anymore so you don't have some guy falling to his knees in front of you out of nowhere"

My handwriting is the same style as the teacher’s who I had when I was nine. I’m now twenty one and he’s been dead eight years but my i’s still curve the same way as his.

I watched the last season of a TV show recently but I started it with my friend in high school. We haven’t spoken in four years.

I make lentil soup through the recipe my gran gave me.

I curl my hair the way my best friend showed me.

I learned to love books because my father loved them first.

Scott just lets out a long sigh everytime and counts to ten in his head.

He ends up on the same flight to New York as Shane after an away game in Ottawa, with Scott going back home and Shane travelling for the launch of a new Rebook store in New York.

And Scott can't help but laugh when he sees what the in flight movie options are. At Shane's curious look he waves at the small tv screen and explains the bit Ilya has going on. And Shane, just for a second, gets this weird glint in his eyes before offering Scott one of his earbuds with a smile.

"Want to rewatch the game with me instead?", he asks, holding up his IPad. And, why the hell not, Scott thinks, there are worse things than reviewing their game with Shane (even though he doubts Shane will share any of his strategical thoughts with him).

ned remembering the handshake with peter, causing something to click for him about who peter was.
