    Summary

    A memory springs to mind: two weeks ago, drunk on Hayden's couch, curled up with Jackie. His voice, soft and quiet, heartbroken with desire, wavering through words about the impossibility of wanting. About the greed that rises in him. About how he clings so badly when he's around Rozanov that all of his common sense falls to the wayside.

    Jackie's voice, rising through the dim gray, as Hayden had snored next to them. All it takes is one of you to make a move, she'd said, their hands laced together, her head on his shoulder. Something's gotta give eventually.

    “I—” Shane starts, before pausing. He thinks he's going to throw up. He thinks that they got it right all those years ago, with it's the hope that kills you. He thinks he has to be brave enough for the both of them, to actually ask, and he's so fucking scared, but he can't let Rozanov's quiet offer of something go unanswered—he'll regret it for the rest of his life if he doesn't take a chance. “Ilya.”

    OR: Shane wants, despite how badly he pretends otherwise.

    Summary

    “Your freckles,” Ilya murmurs, soft enough that Shane almost misses it.

    Shane stiffens. “What about them?”

    Ilya is quiet for a beat.

    Then, “Nothing.”

    “Isn’t that your type?” The words spill out of him, tongue loose from the alcohol earlier. He can feel the heat crawling up his neck again as the seconds tick by without Ilya answering.

    Shane turns around, panicked as he scrambles to explain when the silence is practically unbearable. “Not me. I meant, girls. Just the —you’re always surrounded by a certain…type and they always have freckles.”

    or: shane and ilya are roommates and bad at feelings.
