    Summary

    Contrasting with the clench of his jaw, the rigid line of shoulders, the dark scrunch of anger on his face, when Ilya brings his hand up to cup Shane’s cheek, thumb very lightly brushing against his injured bottom lip, the touch is as gentle as ever.

    "Who did this to you?”

    Shane swallows, heart soaring painfully at the touch. He was convinced he’d never warm up, the chill of tonight just too strong especially with how poorly he’d dressed himself. But the press of Ilya’s palm against his skin has his insides flaring to life. His own hands tremble uselessly in his lap, lips unconsciously protruding into a small pout as he leans just a fraction into the contact.
    ________________

    Or, no matter how much Shane tries to convince himself they’re no good for each other, he and Ilya are the only ones who truly know how to handle one another.
    They bring out the best and the worst in each other, at the same damned time.

    ----
    Shane and Ilya are married and playing together for the Centaurs. As Shane recovers from a violent attack, he and Ilya try to find their footing again... on the ice, in the media, and inside their own relationship. But with panic attacks, PTSD symptoms, and public scrutiny still shaping their lives, even small moments of normalcy feel hard-won. As the world weighs in, Shane and Ilya have to decide what healing looks like when nothing about their life is private anymore - and they may find they have more support than they realized.

    Summary

    Shane should be here right now, should be in Ilya’s house. Ilya should be teasing him about being picky while going through delivery options for food on his phone. Shane should be discovering that Ilya has ginger ale in the fridge and the protein bars Shane mentioned liking in an interview in his pantry. He should be making out with Shane on the couch, sneaking a hand into his pants, teasing him about whether they can beat the deliveryman and arrive before he does. Shane was supposed to spend the night tonight, the Montreal team not set to leave until tomorrow afternoon because of potential bad weather in the morning. Shane should be fed and showered and ready to curl up in bed with Ilya tonight.
    But Shane is in a hospital.

    And Ilya is here.

    He pulls up Jane in his phone again. He presses call.

    “Hey, you’ve reached Shane Hollander-”

    Ilya closes his eyes and lets Shane’s voice roll over him.
