    Shane exhaled sharply. "I want you to chase me through the woods." Ilya's fingers stilled in Shane's hair. "Like a race?" His voice was calm, but Shane could feel the way his chest tensed beneath his cheek. Shane shook his head. "No." The word came out breathless, half swallowed against Ilya's collarbone. or Shane proposes a fantasy and something about it hits too close to home for Ilya. How will they get past it?

    When Lindsay, the team operations manager, had pulled them into a meeting to discuss the rooming arrangements for the season, he’d been expecting Shane to get flustered, and turn bright red, and stammer out something like we wouldn’t want to make anyone on the team uncomfortable. Ilya, in fact, had just opened his mouth to say as much to her, but Shane beat him to the punch.

    “If it can be arranged and doesn’t throw off anything, that’d be great,” Shane said.

    Ilya gaped at him. “You want to room together?”

    Shane just looked baffled. “What do you mean? We’re married. Of course we’re rooming together.”

    --

    Or: Shane says he wants to room with Ilya on the road. He tells the team he wants to room with Ilya on the road. He tells Ilya he wants to room together on the road. But Tanner Dillion is an idiot, and now Ilya can't stop thinking what if Shane gets sick of me?

    Shane blinked at Rose. "What," he asked, voice flattening. His fingers twitched against his glass, condensation dripping onto the tablecloth. The words didn't compute. A relationship dynamic sounded like something from a psychology textbook, not whatever chaotic, magnetic pull existed between him and Ilya. "What dynamic? Nothing like that is going on."

    Rose’s fingers froze against her glass. She studied Shane’s face. Watching the furrow between his brows, the way his jaw tensed like he was bracing for impact. He genuinely didn’t know. The realization hit her then. “Shane,” she said slowly, “you seriously don’t see it?”

    or

    Shane realizes that he and Ilya are in a very under negotiated D/s relationship
