    Summary

    Shane stares at it, uncomprehending. It’s impossible. He’s not in love.

    And yet, right there on his bathroom floor, announcing his doom like it’s not delicately beautiful, is a small light pink petal, rounded at the bottom with a sharp tip.

    Or: After Shane runs out of Ilya’s house post tuna melt, he develops Hanahaki.

    Summary

    Shane doesn't eat much—he attributes it to watching his carb intake and needing to stay light and speedy, and for no other reason at all.

    And definitely not because of the flowers that keep him full these days.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander is just trying to survive NYU biochemistry, hockey practice, and the graveyard shift at 7-Eleven. He's too exhausted to notice that his new regular customer is Russian mafia, or that Ilya's interest in him goes beyond terrible coffee and cookies.

    When Ilya hands him a $10,000 designer scarf and matching gloves, Shane doesn't panic. He sells them for next month's rent. Any normal person would be terrified. Instead, Shane uses the leftover money to buy a Hello Kitty watch, pastel pink, childish, utterly incongruous with the danger circling him. He wears it to his next night shift without irony or apology.

    Ilya notices immediately. He is fascinated.

    (Currently under major editing. Can still be read.)
