Summary
Shane’s heart drops into his stomach. “Ilya,” he breathes. His vision goes blurry, throat tight. He tries to swallow it down and focus, shove his swirling thoughts into a neat little box, but it’s impossible. He feels—he might throw up, actually. “Are you seriously telling me you tried to fucking kill yourself?”
“Yes,” Ilya agrees blandly, “It did not work.”
Ilya calls Shane from the hospital. Shane handles it very normally.

Summary
“No one is going to kill me. Except maybe you,” says Ilya, sprawling in the chair across from her. “I didn't need any of the other bodyguards and I don't need this one.”
“You're going to have to talk to him sooner or later.” Svetlana turns her attention back to Hollander. “Ilya doesn't take the threats against him seriously.”
“He's not my first client to feel that way,” he says. He has brown eyes and freckles, a spray of them across the bridge of his nose. “Can you tell me more about the threats?”
“Of course.” She gestures to the chair next to Ilya and pulls out a binder for Hollander. “He came out as bisexual last year and the threats started not long after.”
“I receive a lot of good mail too,” says Ilya. “DMs, letters, even photos. Very nice ones.”
“The binder for dick pics you've gotten is ten times as thick,” says Svetlana. Ilya opens his mouth to crack another joke, but she holds up her hand. “Yes, yes, like your dick. Get some new material.”

Summary
“Fuck you,” Marleau says, through breathing, wheezing laughter. “I didn’t almost die—”
The flat of Shane’s tongue presses, hard, against the head of Ilya’s cock. Ilya narrows his eyes. Oh, I see, he thinks flatly. To the extent that there had been anything to forgive, Ilya is fairly certain that Shane had immediately forgiven his little stunt during the call with Pike. He had neglected to remember, however, that Shane’s mind tended to plan on a scale of weeks, months, or years, and that forgiven did not necessarily mean forgotten.
Shane gets payback for the phone call with Hayden.

Summary
Ilya hears the door opening before he sees it. He sits up sharply, already angling his phone towards his chest, thumb hovering over the End Call button. Shane doesn’t speak, though Ilya watches his expression shift into something grave and concerned. They both know the routine at this point; it wouldn’t be the first time this week Ilya has ended a call abruptly to avoid interruption.
The head that appears in the doorway is far lower than he expects it to be, and it takes him a moment to fully register.
“Zhenya?” he asks, frowning. “Are you alright?”
The girl nods, her little hand still clutching the door handle. “Can I come in?”
Or: Shane and Ilya speak often, while Ilya is in Moscow for his father's funeral. Tonight, Ilya has company.
