Summary
Flowers. There were goddamn flowers—a whole bouquet of lillies—sticking out of Shane’s locker for the whole team to see.
“Hollander, you fucking beauty!” Mitty whooped. Someone slapped him on the back. A chorus of hoots and wolf whistles filled the room as everyone took turns peering over shoulders to get a better look.
Hayden turned to him, wide-eyed and a little bewildered. “You and Lily are that serious, man?”
Shane opened his mouth to reply, but before he could find the words, J.J. cleared his throat exaggeratedly, readying to read something, and oh god, was that a note he’d just pulled out of Shane’s locker?
He was going to kill Ilya, seriously.
Ilya decides to surprise Shane with a bouquet after their game against each other, posing as Lily.

There is no words to describe how when Shane wakes up in Ilya’s arms, it feels like he’s taking his first breath of life, over and over and over.

Summary
Ilya’s feeling a little silly about the thought in and of itself, because everyone owns black t-shirts. This is a perfectly normal, ordinary article of clothing, and there is no reason for Ilya to be so magnetized by it that he is now reaching inside Shane’s suitcase to remove what is a completely innocuous black cotton tee that is clearly something Shane has always owned. The same kind that Ilya also owns, and ‘casually’ tossed at Shane when Shane was lying delectably shirtless in his bed a few months ago that godforsaken day in Boston Ilya can't bring himself to stop thinking about.
Chert, Shane hasn’t just infected Ilya with his boring, his never-ending stream of consciousness mind-babble must be contagious, too.
Ilya picks up the folded shirt and immediately forgets to be concerned about The Hollander Effect on his nervous system, because - yes, that’s definitely the scent of Ilya’s fabric softener lingering on those cotton fibers. He knows that for a fact because he can’t ever find his favorite brand in the US, so he always brings a case from Russia when he returns from a visit.
Okay, so Shane kept Ilya’s shirt.
And neglected to wash it.
That’s hot, right?

i-
He ignores the clench of his chest that always appears whenever Shane uses his first name, especially when he says it like this - carefully, like the word itself is precious. As if the man he is naming is someone to cherish.
ahh he deserves the world

Summary
Jane: We didn't even kiss.
The words stare back at him. They fucking taunt him, the same way Ilya does with that wink of his, with his smirk and his deep voice.
Abruptly, Shane feels pissed off and a little like he’s grasping for something that’s slipping away. He feels the way he did in that bathroom, the first time he had Ilya’s attention for months and didn’t want to let Ilya escape without stealing more of it.
The elevator door opens. Shane does not get off.
Instead, he presses the button for Penthouse 1 and hits send on We didn’t even kiss.
He watches the floor numbers increase as the elevator carries him back to Ilya. Shane has no idea what he’s going to say to the asshole but he knows he has so many words that are about to burst out of his mouth.
Fuck you being the first two.
OR Shane goes back for that kiss.

And to be loved like that, to be wanted like that, to be taken care of like that, ignites him in ways that leaves him breathless and wanting more. Not afraid to ask for more.
AHHHH
