    Shane’s whining beneath him, head thrown back, exposing the long column of his neck and rutting up against Ilya. Ilya licks up his throat, nibbling at Shane’s jaw, before his lips brush the shell of Shane’s ear.

    “Tell me what you want.”

    The reply is instant.

    “You.”

    Summary

    “Your space is nice,” Hollander whispers back, leaning in, breath warm against Ilya’s chest. “Smells like mint.”

    Ilya stops breathing.

    Hollander’s eyes are half-lidded, dazed, soft in a way Ilya has never seen. “Ilya,” he murmurs.

    And Ilya nearly chokes. The first name. His actual first name. Whispered like something intimate. Sacred. They’ve never called each other by their first name. Always Hollander. Always Rozanov. Ilya is so stunned he almost doesn’t process the next words, almost can’t translate them despite living in the States for almost four years now.

    Summary

    “Alright, hold onto your underpants. Vacuuming is not hard work.” Ilya gestured widely in exasperation, communicating that wasn’t what he meant. “I’m just showing off our domestic bliss,” Shane responded.

    Ilya smiled, realizing that Shane shared a moment online. Shane walked over to him and Ilya wrapped him in a hug.

    Then, “At least, that’s what Troy said when he noticed how little noise you were making.”

    Summary

    "Yes. Stay, talk. Tell me about yourself." Ilya says. Takes another drag from his cigarette.

    "Introduce yourself, Shane Hollander." It's funny, the way the name feels foreign, like an odd shape in his mouth.

    OR

    Ilya has the best day of his life. Then wonders if he could do it all over again. Better. Faster.
