    Summary

    "Ilya had loved him through his worst moments. Ilya had helped him find a therapist when he’d collapsed on the floor of their hotel bathroom after losing a particularly brutal game, scratching at his chest. Ilya had held him, even when Shane yelled at him because there was panic crawling under his skin and he felt as though it might claw its way out. Ilya had told him it was okay; that it didn’t make him a bad player to resent the spotlight sometimes, that it didn’t make him a bad teammate to hate the team when they were too loud and too drunk and too physical, that it didn’t make him a bad person to need space to breathe. Ilya saved him.

    And look what you give him in return. You’re a shitty husband, Shane Hollander.

    You don’t deserve his last name."

    Summary

    “Um, okay,” Nicky says. Stops. Thinks. Looks at Aaron with too much urgency, like he has to entertain him fast or he’ll disappear into thin air. “Uh—Andrew! Yes. Andrew and I are having a fight right now.”

    Andrew shakes his head at Aaron. “Completely one-sided.”

    “He thinks his gaydar is better than mine. Can you believe that?”

    “Never said that.” But it’s probably true.

    or: Nicky and the twins bond about gay shit

    Summary

    Aaron turned to his brother and switched to speaking in German. “The fuck do you want?”
    “He wants a tattoo.”
    “You’re a tattoo artist last I checked.”
    “He was some some fucking quote written on his ribcage like he’s a 19 year old woman. I’m not interested. Overcharge him and send him on his way.”
    “Why the fuck did you let him come in here half naked if you weren’t planning on doing it?”
    “The fuck?,” a third voice spoke up in German. Andrew and his carbon copy turned to Neil. “I didn’t walk in without my shirt on.”
