    Summary

    “I could marry Svetlana,” Ilya says in one breath, like the sentence bores him with its mundanity.

    Shane feels like he’s been pushed from a cliff, left to fall and break his bones, like the lungs just got ripped from his chest, like a bullet was shot on his shameful, stupid, desperate heart.

    He likes her. She makes him happy. In the rare times he said her name in Shane's presence, it brought a smile soft as cotton on the Russian’s face.

    She was there first. She's a woman. She's perfect for Ilya, his lifestyle, and his career. Why would he bother himself trying something more with Shane? Why, when he could have that more with someone who would be so much less complicated?

     

    _______

    Or Shane thinks his love has to be selfish for it to have any worth. Ilya disagrees but that man is circling around the subject from so far away it might as well be from space.

    Ilya had never regretted anything more in his life.

    Summary

    When Ilya finally made it back to their table, the air between them was toxic. Shane didn't look at him. He kept his eyes fixed on the stage, a frozen, fake smile plastered on his face that Ilya knew was a lie.

    “Shane—” Ilya started, his voice low.

    “Not here,” Shane snapped, his voice a jagged edge. “Do not make a scene here"

     

    ***

    One year into marriage, Shane and Ilya realize that love isn't just about the easy days. It's about what happens after the cameras stop flashing and the wet towels start piling up.

    Summary

    An 'innocent' video of Ilya and Shane is posted, and their lives are abrutply turned upside down. Forced seperation, security detail, no-contact and broken hearts ensue.
    ____

    He knows who it is without having to turn around. Even in silence, in darkness- in the dim corner of the world, Ilya has always had a way of commanding a space and making his presence known.

    “Made it five minutes before running. Is new record, no?” Ilya says behind him, voice low and cruel.

    Shane’s laugh comes out wrong, hollow and sharp, because of course Ilya would follow him just to be an asshole. He turns slowly, because part of him wants to see if this is real and part of him wants to rip the reality out by the roots.

    “Fuck you,” Shane snaps, voice shaking with rage he didn’t realize he had. “After five months of silence, that’s the first fucking thing you say to me? Fuck. You.”
