I think that I just got more gay

Summary

“Okay. Is bisexual panic,” Ilya confirms as if diagnosing a medical condition. “You came to right person.”

-
Rose has the feels for another woman for the first time and seeks advice from Shane. Ilya quickly takes over and plays matchmaker.

Notes

Set during TLG while they’re doing Ottawa/Montreal long-distance. The movie Rose and Gloria are making together (and their special acting choices) are mentioned by Carter in Common Goal and I actually have no idea how that ties into the timeline, but we’re just gonna roll with it here.

Rose [06:03]: help I need your gay advice!

Shane blinks at his phone. It’s a rare two days off in a row for both him and Ilya, so he’s currently enjoying the luxury of waking up together and being spooned and kissed and nuzzled to his heart’s content. It seems kind of early for life advice. Or really any activity that doesn’t directly involve his mouth and Ilya’s dick. However, Rose sounds…stressed.

[06:04]: I may have the option to hook up with another woman

[06:04]: Should I do it?? How do I know if I should do it?

Shane grumbles to himself and, like any reasonable person, puts his phone aside in favor of more snuggles.

“What?” Ilya asks.

“It’s just Rose,” he replies sleepily. These days, Ilya doesn’t tense at the mention of her name anymore. They’ve talked on the phone a few times and, as Shane predicted, get along very well. Rose thinks Ilya is hilarious, which Shane finds debatable, but - at least they like each other. And with Rose being one of the very few people in the world to know about their relationship, it makes things a lot easier.

“Some….gay panic.” He yawns and pulls Ilya’s arm closer around himself.

“Is not gay panic if she is not gay.”

“No, I mean, there’s a girl. I don’t know, I haven’t asked yet. She wants my advice.”

“Your advice for girl? You know nothing about girls.”

“Yeah, I’m aware, thanks Ilya.”

“Is bisexual panic then.”

“Maybe.”

Ilya, seemingly a lot more intrigued by the situation than Shane himself, reaches for Shane’s phone to look at the texts. Before Shane can protest, he hears the line ringing on loudspeaker.

“What are you doing?” Shane whines. He doesn’t want to talk to Rose on the phone. He wants to wiggle his ass against Ilya until he gets hard and then pretend he had nothing to do with it.

“Ohmygod, hi. Thanks for calling, I know it’s kinda early. I’m on set and – yeah. Hi.”

“Hi Rose.”

“Rozy!,” she exclaims happily. Rose loves that they kind of have the same name. She made fun of Shane endlessly when she first found out, about how at least he never ended up saying the wrong name in bed. Shane didn’t think it was that funny.

“You need advice for girls, do not ask Shane.”

“Okay, fair.”

“Which girl you want to fuck?”

“Right to the point! Uhm. Backstory later, but do you know who Gloria Grey is?”

“Yes.”

“So. Her.”

“Very hot,” Ilya says and Shane kicks his shin under the covers.

“Oh, please tell me you haven’t –”

“No. No. Is dating Admirals hockey player. Who is not very hot.”

“I think he’s – anyway. Okay. That’s the problem, actually. He’s cool with it, but…I don’t know.”

“She want you?”

“Yeah so, we did this movie together and the characters were like, enemies turned allies, ha, I guess you know that one, and we thought it would be fun to play it like they’re secretly super hot for each other? And uhh, I guess we did that because…”

“Because you are secretly hot for each other?”

“Yeah?” Rose sounds kind of small suddenly, very unlike her usual self.

“Okay. Is bisexual panic,” Ilya confirms as if diagnosing a medical condition. “You came to right person.”

“So what do I do? I think if I sleep with her, I’ll, like, really fall in love. And her and Carter are very serious.”

“Not good. You need different girl, without boyfriend. Not so complicated. To calm panic.”

“That’s your advice?”

“Yes. I will help you find.”

“Wait, what?”

“I know many bisexual women. I can make recommendation for you.”

“Ilya,” Shane hisses and elbows him into the stomach.

“Oh hey Shane,” Rose says. “Didn’t know you were on the phone too.”

“I‘m not,” Shane replies. “I’m sleeping.”

“Okay, sorry. You do that.”

“What girls you like?” Ilya asks, undeterred by Shane’s grouchy mood.

“I don’t know! I just like Gloria.”

“Different type maybe. Do not want to think of her while –”

“Yeah,” Rose interrupts, “yeah, that sounds good.”

“Okay. I send you list on Instagram later, you look. I will introduce you.”

“Okay, wow. That sounds great actually. Wait – is that gonna be all girls you hooked up with?”

Shane huffs out a breath and tries to roll out of bed, but is stopped by Ilya’s absolute death grip on him.

“Long time ago.”

“Huh.”

“Shane does not want to hear. I can tell you other time.”

“Yeah, I can see why he wouldn’t wanna hear that, Jesus. You guys are so weird, you know that?”

“I’m not weird,” Shane says, which is met with frighteningly similar little cooing sounds from both Rose and Ilya.

“Well anyways, thanks for your advice? And I’ll let you guys go. Sorry again for the early-morning drama.”

“Is okay. Bye, Rose.”

“Are you serious?” Shane asks, turning around under Ilya’s arm so he can hit him with the full power of a disapproving look that has just the right amount of sad eyes thrown in.

“What? I want to help your friend!”

“By getting back in touch with your – exes, I guess? That you’re all still friends with on Instagram?”

“There is no friends on Instagram, you follow –”

“I really don’t care, Ilya!”

“You are friends with Rose. She is your ex.”

“I mean, not really.”

“Shane,” Ilya says a little more seriously and Shane can’t help but tilt his face up just a little, signaling that he would maybe accept a kiss now, even if he is annoyed.

“Shane,” Ilya repeats softly and kisses him so gently and slowly that it turns Shane’s heart into goo despite himself. “I love you. Only you.”

“I love you, too.”

“You know it was not serious, all those girls.”

Yes, Shane knows, but does he need to say all those girls like that? Like there were hundreds of them? Maybe there were. Maybe Rose will get a very long list.

“It was not serious for me, and not serious for them. I never –“ Ilya makes a gesture with his hand that could mean absolutely anything.

“You mean you didn’t lead them on?” Shane tries. “Didn’t make them think you were gonna be their boyfriend?”

“Yes,” Ilya agrees empathetically. “It was fun for me, it was fun for them. Sometimes, like friends. Like Svetlana.”

“Oh,” Shane says, a beautiful vision suddenly forming in his head. “Are you gonna introduce Rose and Svetlana?”

Ilya looks thoughtful for a moment, considering. “I think…maybe. Maybe is good idea.”

“See, I do know girls.”

“You know one.”

“Yeah yeah, and you know many,” Shane sighs, hooking his leg over Ilya’s and pressing their bodies closer together. He is ready to let this go now if Ilya agrees to provide a good distraction. Which he usually does.

“I think maybe list for Rose can wait. After breakfast.”

“Uh huh. And what’s for breakfast?”

In lieu of an answer, Ilya flips Shane over onto his back and kisses him so wildly that it almost makes Shane dizzy.

“Guess.”
