    Summary

    Hayden: Jackie is very jealous of your manny.
    Hayden: Says he’s incredible and that a bunch of the school moms are trying to get play dates with Violet.

    Shane: He is great.
    Shane: Kind of a menace, too, but Violet loves him, so I overlook some things.

    Hayden: Oh, I’m sure.
    Hayden: She also said he’s super hot.
    Hayden: Like he missed his calling as a model hot.

    Shane: Geez, Hayd. You want to marry him or something?

    Hayden: NO.
    Hayden: I just thought maybe for you, ya know?
    Hayden: You haven’t dated anyone like…ever.

    Shane: I’m not going to get involved with my daughter’s manny.
    Shane: That would be irresponsible.
    Shane: Even if he is stupid model hot.
    Shane: And obnoxiously charming and funny.
    Shane: Plus, he cooks, and has the best accent.
    Shane: And is amazing with my daughter.
    Shane: God. Fuck my life.

    Summary

    Lily:
    Are you busy this weekend?

    Jane:
    I’m always busy

    Shane doesn’t consider how that might sound until his phone buzzes again less than ten seconds later.

    Lily:
    You have girlfriend now?

    Jane:
    No
    No I don’t have a girlfriend
    I’m just busy

    Summary

    They sat in silence for a few seconds and watched the surf rolling in and out, in and out. Shane eased one knee up and rested his arm across it, watching Ilya out of the corner of his eye with infinite patience.

    “You wanna talk about it?” he asked, voice soft enough that the wind almost stole it.

    He did want to talk. His chest was full of words. Too full. But the idea of opening all that up? Of watching Shane recoil, or worse, watching him care? It was unbearable. The thought of being comforted by Shane, of feeling that warmth and knowing he couldn’t keep it, nearly crushed him.

    Ilya kept his eyes on the water and his jaw tight.

    Shane reached out slowly and carefully and let the tip of one finger trace the outside of Ilya’s forearm. Just a whisper of contact. A question, not a demand.

    Ilya looked at him. Shane gave a small tilt of his hand, beckoning him closer.

    “Come here.”

    ****

    A deviation from the All-Star weekend in Tampa:

    Instead of finding Shane on the bench, it’s Ilya alone with his ghosts and falling apart in ways he never lets anyone see.

    Until Shane sits beside him.

    Summary

    “You are so pretty, Hollander. Your freckles err— take my breath.”

    Shane glares. “Rozanov, you can’t say that here,” he says through gritted teeth. “They can hear us.”

    “Who gives a fuck?” He declares with a careless shrug. “Whole world knows we are lovers, so what?”

    The world most definitely does not need to know that he’s on Ilya’s extensive fuck buddies roster.

    Or

    According to Ilya, Shane is the best boyfriend anyone could ask for. If you ask Shane, he’ll tell you they are just fuck buddies.

    Summary

    Because even now, as they eat and David and Shane and Ilya all talk, she is trying to figure out the details of the whole thing, trying to pass her mind back to all those years, figure out if she had missed something along the way. There’s something like grief sitting heavy in her chest, the realization that she had missed every moment of her son falling in love, still can’t understand the how of it all.

    OR

    Dinner, the day after. Yuna gets her chance to sit down and hear from Ilya Rozanov.

    Summary

    "Panic attack," Shane corrected.
    "Yes, that. So." He tapped the bottom of the can. "Cold. And sugar. And," he squeezed, tight but not sudden, "this. Pressure. Warm."

    In which Shane panics just a little harder, post tuna melts. Ilya responds well to panic.

    Summary

    It is possible that Shane has miscalculated.

    The Montreal Metros are down bad – not in points, thank god, but definitely in players currently able to breathe through their nose.

    Shane is pretty confident it started with Hayden sniffling last week, but he’s too loyal a friend to bring that up, especially now that half the team is down with whatever cursed germs have entered their locker-room and decimated their starting line-up.

    Still, Shane was very confident. Shane eats well and exercises regularly. His body is finely honed. He is a professional athlete. He would not, he repeatedly assured everyone in his life, get sick. 

    It is possible that science has failed him.

    Summary

    “You’re like,” Merlin tries to explain it, if only so Arthur stops looking at him with that strange, unsure look, “a toothache.”

    The new look on Arthur’s face is not a better one.

    “A toothache?” he says, dead calm, “Are you serious? Are you honestly saying that you think being married to me would be like having a toothache? Merlin!”

    “I’m going to bed,” Merlin says, bailing out now and ignoring all protesting sputtering, because this conversation is clearly a problem for future Merlin. He will soothe Arthur and make sure that he knows anyone would be lucky to be married to him, but in a really annoying way. Merlin will figure it out. Future Merlin, that is.

    Not this one.

    This one is already drooling onto his luxurious down pillow, blissfully unaware of what he has wrought.

    Summary

    Merlin looks up at him. His blush grows as Arthur spoons more soup into his bowl. Arthur. Serving him. He can feel the worry seeping off Arthur. He wants to kiss the worried pout off Arthur’s lips, to reassure the prince that he’s alright.
    Oh.
    Oh.
    Oh no.
    Merlin is so royally screwed.

    Summary

    Arthur doesn’t think about it, because it's a weakness. The knights pat each other on the back, and sometimes they roughhouse for a bit. Arthur is above that, and he only does it when he really wants to cheer up one of his men. That’s initially what he wants to do to Merlin, too, when his idiot of a manservant’s face droops and he can’t quite make his smile meet his eyes. But he doesn’t, because the thought of touching Merlin—his lungs constrict, and there’s no reason for him to be touching Merlin, no excuse that would make it proper.

    Touching Merlin would be because Arthur wants to, and he shouldn’t.

    Or: Five times Arthur is a touch-deprived mess who really wishes he could touch Merlin without an excuse, and one time he learns he doesn't need one.
