  1. The first text arrives on a warm night, late. He sees the banner notification drop down with Kip’s name. The message preview hovers long enough for him to read it.

    It’s been six months since he made Kip walk out.

    Or: The long, winding road back.

    After months of nursing what he thought was a broken heart, Kip finds himself waking up in an apartment he never thought he'd see again, with a man he thought he'd lost for good, and an irritated friend on the phone.

  3. Ilya is…he’s Shane’s entire heart. The air that he breathes, the reason for everything he does. None of it would matter without Ilya. This is the closest he’s ever come to losing him, and the thought of it - the possibility that everything they’ve been fighting for could just be lost - had struck Shane so acutely, so agonisingly.

    He’d once thought that losing hockey was the worst thing that could ever happen to him. He knows, now, that isn’t true.

  5. Eventually, they have to talk about it.

    The world resumes its spins. The sex runs out. They kiss until their lips are bruised and they make up for lost time in any way that they can, and Ilya only leaves the hotel room to get food for them both. It is the middle of the night and their heartbeats have returned to normal. The silence has finally sunk in.

    Shane whispers, “Talk now?”

    Ilya kisses him on the forehead. “Talk now.”

    ~*~*~*~*~*~*~

    They talk about Shane’s divorce. They have a lot to say.

  7. College AU. They say you should ring in New Year's Eve with who you want to spend the rest of the year beside. Shane is trying to make peace with the likelihood he’s going to spend it alone…until a knock in the middle of the night changes everything again. OR: a Hollanov one-shot where Shane gets into multiple law schools; Ilya gets into vet school somewhere else and is too scared to ask for what he wants; and months later, he admits he fucked up. Even in a foreign place, surrounded by the detritus of Shane's unfulfilling life, Ilya still fucking fits. Throat closing up, Shane leans his head against the door to look at the ceiling. If he can keep his eyes off Ilya for a bit, maybe he can dredge up old anger and let it fuel him into turning Ilya away. That's what everyone would encourage him to do. Everyone would say he shouldn't… "I'm sorry is so late." …that he shouldn't be drawn to look back at Ilya. That he shouldn't be affected by the hesitation in Ilya's voice, or his hands balling at his sides, or his light eyes shining under the moonlight streaming through the cracked blinds. That he shouldn't have already let Ilya in.

  10. Through the haze of darkness and body heat and drunken partygoers, all Shane could see was Ilya. His eyes were fixed on Shane and Rose: the way she touched him, the way she kissed him, the way they moved together. And the look on Ilya’s face - the agony in his eyes - pierced Shane like a blade through his heart. It made him want to peel his skin off; made him feel ashamed for having a body that had been touched by someone other than Ilya.
