“Freckles?” He askes and points to the dots on his cheekbones. Ilya nods in agreement and commits the word freckles to memory. “You like my freckles.” The blush is back when Shane realizes what he said.
Ilya has the sudden thought that this moment is important, a voice in his head that might sound like his mother, or might be his own that says, don’t fuck this up, not this one. Ilya decides very suddenly that he is going to listen, and against every instinct ingrained in him, decides to be honest.June 27, 2009

Cliff hates the waiting game, mostly because it goes on way too long. A year. A year of trying to find a moment to bring up the ring, casually mentioning Jane where it won’t push Roz away, making exasperated eye contact with his teammates with each failed lead.

All of a sudden, she sees it, all of it, laid out in front of her. Every darkened corner was hiding brushed hands, stolen looks across crowded rooms, the infectious energy at every rivalry game, every question from reporters and peers alike designed to make one of them break, to insult, degrade, hate.
