    Summary

    “Shane. You know you are my baby. My soulmate, my reason for living.”

    There are many reactions to being called such sweet things, but a wail is definitely not one of them. The sound Shane makes is unmistakably upset. A lamenting groan loud enough for the whole table to hear, a sound sober Shane would never make on pain of death.

    “How is that the wrong answer?” Bood asks, bemused.

    Or, Shane is jealous that he isn't Ilya's best friend (even though he is).

    Summary

    Yuna slides a folder on the table closer, pulling out two packets of paper. She’d gone all out with the contracts. Mainly, Shane suspected, to ease his nerves about the lines of the relationship. Plus, she was always nothing if not prepared.

    She hands one contract to Shane, then another to Rozanov. “As a reminder, this is not legally binding. If either of you wants out early, can’t meet obligations, or wants to change things down the line, that is perfectly fine, and we can work with that. This just lays out the exact timeline of the relationship,” she begins, “down to the start and end dates."

     
    - or, Shane and Ilya never start hooking up in 2010. So eight years later, after they both come out on their own, Yuna Hollander (momager of the century) decides that a PR relationship would be very beneficial for her son and his infamous rival. And everything definitely goes exactly according to plan... or something like that.

    Summary

    “Unlock the door, Hollander.”

    Even though Shane couldn’t hear the exact words, he knew what Ilya said. He shook his head.

    “Unlock the door, or I will break the glass. Your choice.”

    Shane’s eyes widened again and he briefly hung his head as if regretting all of his past life decisions, and Ilya heard the resounding click of the unlock mechanism.

    He felt wild, his mind in violent turmoil as he threw open the door and his palm clutched the back of Shane’s head, his fingers finding purchase in the coarse hair. “Are you listening to me?” Shane ducked his head in acknowledgment. “I’m going to call off my driver. You will not move. I am going to sit there-“ he pointed at the empty passenger seat. “-in this boring car of yours and I am going to find out why the fuck you are alone and who the fuck made you cry.”

    *************************************************************

    Inspired by Shane’s confession in The Long Game (*mini-spoiler*) about his whereabouts after leaving a certain Montreal nightclub in January 2017, Ilya leaves the club shortly after Shane only to find him pulled over on the side of the road, devastated.

    Summary

    "What?" Ilya mumbles, trying hard to keep his eyes open. He knows they'll have an entire day tomorrow — they both had an off day following their game, so they took advantage of it — but he still wants to pack in as many conscious seconds as possible before they're separated again.

    "Nothing," Shane whispers, eyes like chocolate in the warm light of the lamp. "You're so pretty."

    Ilya's eyebrows furrow, only to be quickly smoothed over by Shane's finger.

    "No," Ilya hums. "That is you."

    - or, Ilya has weird feelings about Shane calling him pretty
