    Summary

    They had so many years of love and joy, so many tender, vulnerable moments that they were never allowed to capture - never allowed to keep.

    “We don’t have any pictures together, Ilya,” Shane repeats, his voice frantic and desperate and almost pleading. “We’ve loved each other for a decade and all we have to show for it is-“

    “-us, Shane. We have us to show for it. Our life, our love, our home that we have built together.”

    Summary

    Shane gets called ‘boring.’ Ilya makes it worse by playing along. Shane tries to pretend it's fine. Ilya calls his bluff.

    Cue in a fight, a stubborn silence, a slammed door that never closes, and a tiny, broken sound that changes everything.


    “You say you’re boring, fine. You can be boring for the whole damn world. I’ll still kiss you senseless and drag you home after every game. I’ll still make you moan loud enough to shake the walls. None of that changes.”

    Summary

    “Yeah,” Mickey asks, just as slow, as quiet. “What did you lie about?”

    It could be anything. Something private, something old. He turns his head to watch the breath that fans over Ian’s lips. Sees him sitting there, like a statue, marbled and cold. And he wonders, just fleetingly, just for a moment, a slither of one—if even—whether or not Ian understands how pretty he is.

    Summary

    When he makes it back into the kitchen, what’s left of his ice cream is completely melted. There must be a metaphor in there somewhere. Deep down Mickey knows that this whole thing had just been blown out of proportion, to put it fucking mildly: Ian doesn’t care that much about whatever happened at Dottie’s yesterday. Still, as he throws away what’s left of his Chocolate Caramel Cookie Dough pint, he knows that it’s definitely too late to backtrack now. Not that he was going to anyway. Pig-headed, remember?

    He spots Ian’s forgotten phone on the kitchen island and audibly groans.

    Being married to Ian Gallagher is like being married to a California King sized, ice-cream-dropping toddler.

    There’s your fucking metaphor.

     

    (In which Mickey puts their neighbor in her place and won’t apologize for it, Ian learns a valuable lesson about compromising and Lip just needs everyone to check their fucking phones for a change.)
