    Summary

    “Hey,” Hollander says softly, settling a hand on Ilya’s back.

    Ilya turns away and fixes his gaze on a spot of chipped paint on the wall, trying to will the moisture trailing down his cheeks back into his tear ducts. “Sorry,” he whispers, shaking his head.

    He can’t actually remember the last time he felt so utterly mortified. This is not at all what he’d envisioned happening when Hollander asked for his room number. He’d guessed that a conversation was on the horizon; Ilya had just imagined it happening after he reminded Hollander exactly what he’d been missing while he was off being Rose Landry’s boyfriend. But no, Hollander always wants to clear the air, always needs to fucking talk, even though Ilya never has the right words for him.

    “Hey,” Hollander says again, somehow even more tenderly.

    The bed shifts, and suddenly Hollander is crawling into Ilya’s lap and cradling Ilya’s face in his hands and kissing him.

    (or, filling in the blanks between Ilya crying in Shane's arms and the bed being absolutely wrecked in the last shot of that scene)

    Summary

    “I can always play poker,” Hollander says, far slower than he’d recited the stats. “What are you playing?”

    “Durak,” Ilya says when the others just look expectantly at him.

    After a beat, Hollander seems to muster up his courage. “Can I join?”

    Summary

    Up to this point, Svetlana had simply assumed Jane had a good mouth, or big tits, or let Ilya do unspeakable things to her. Ilya never spares her the details when they discuss their sex lives—he can get quite crude with it, actually. Sometimes Svetlana wishes he’d tone it down.

    Ilya doesn’t get quiet about the people he fucks. He gets crass. He gets specific.

    So when he doesn’t say something distasteful along the lines of you should see how she bounces on it, Sveta, you’d get why I don’t mind keeping her around, alarms start blaring in her head.

    There’s something he’s not telling her.

    (or, Svetlana suspects who Jane is. Then she thinks she knows. Then she knows for sure.)

    Summary

    Hayden hated the guy. Hated him.

    Hated his stupid, smug smirk and the myriad of insults he threw Hayden’s way and the way he made fun of Shane like it was a funny game then looked him up and down like a piece of meat and his reputation of sleeping with everything that fucking moved and the memories of being slammed into the boards by him and quite literally everything about this Russian dickhead.

    And he hated that he was now going to have to do everything in his power to learn how to tolerate Rozanov because Shane was inexplicably and hopelessly in love with him, and Shane was his brother in every fucking thing but blood, and Hayden was not going to keep being responsible for that sad puppy look on his face every time he realized how poorly they got along.

    So far, Hayden sucked at it. Big time.

    ---

    It bothers Shane that Hayden and Ilya don't get along, so Hayden is putting in the effort to try and see these redeeming qualities Shane claims the guy has. Over the years it becomes easier and easier, until one day, he realizes he doesn't have to actually try anymore.

    or, 5 times Hayden realized he was starting to tolerate Ilya + 1 time they acknowledged they were actually friends now

    Summary

    “Okay,” Shane interrupts his train of thought, and Ilya blinks back to reality. They’re standing in a gaudy little gift shop, nowhere near their terminal. “You need to tell me what’s going on. I can’t help you if you don’t tell me, Ilya.”

    Fuck. Shane is looking at him so expectantly that Ilya can’t even scramble for a lie, can’t find a joke to put his husband at ease. And so, because they both signed the marriage certificate and they both made promises, Ilya makes the impossible decision to be honest.

    ”I don’t know,” He says, pursing his lips, looking stubbornly at the floor. “I am scared, maybe. Anxious. I don’t know why. Or for what.”

    Shane doesn’t say anything, not for a few seconds; Ilya can feel his brown eyes boring into him, searching him for some unspoken answer, even as Ilya himself keeps his gaze square on the scuffed-up floor of the gift shop.

    Or: Ilya is suddenly scared of flying. Shane wants to find out why.
