Summary:

Shane works hard, almost too hard. It feels strange for Ilya to complain about his lover working hard and being good at his job that he's constantly so busy but he can't help as he feels bad for Shane. But you have to understand Ilya, Shane is not great at managing his stress levels which usually ends in the man being worn out. He's seen Shane after a hard day of work– he's quiet, his voice soft as he speaks to Ilya, his voice light and kind even throughout his sluggish movements. Ilya knows Shane isn't someone who's usually very loud, opting for a more relaxed voice but even then, it's not usual for Shane to speak so low and murmured– like now.
