Summary
If only—if only Shane can slide back to bed, to fall asleep beside Ilya and wake up beside him, to just pretend that the outside world does not exist. Shane would like to learn the shapes of Ilya’s routines, the things that make him laugh when he is tired, the expression he wears first thing in the morning before he remembers to hide himself from the world, yet safe in the knowledge that he doesn’t need to hide it from Shane.
Somehow, without meaning to, his mind has leapt much further than that, to tomorrow, and every tomorrow after tomorrow, all the same with Ilya in his arms. Shane realizes, with a careless certainty like a dream, that he can do this forever.
And oh, isn’t that a terrifying thought? To look at another person and discover that your mind and your heart have begun to create pieces of the future around them without your permission?
Or: Shane confronts the truth that he has spent years running from, following the aftermath of his disastrous night with Rose. In the stillness of Tampa, he shows Ilya just exactly how much he means it.

Summary
They are lounging together on Ilya’s couch and basking in the post-sex glow, Ilya eating matcha ice cream while Shane has some sliced apples and melons, when Ilya throws the question out of the blue.
“Remember when I asked how many times you can come in an hour?”
Shane rolls his eyes. “Yes, you sexted me right before an important game, how could I ever forget.”
“Soooo,” Ilya licks the spoon and swirls it around, nudging and tickling Shane’s socked feet with his own bare ones. “I’ve been thinking, we should test it out. See who can do better. For science.”
---
| Lily: Ok, here’s the rules
| Lily: You can choose how you will come, but you cannot do the same thing twice. Other than that, everything else is under my control
| Lily: The same rules go for me next time, I make the choices on how I come, then you can take charge if you want to
| Lily: Sounds good?Or: Shane and Ilya compete on who can come more in an hour. Neither of them seems to be able to follow the rules.

Summary
Ilya looks directly at blue eyes identical to his own—so intimately familiar and somehow also dazedly distinct—as he tightens his grip and growls into Shane’s ear.
“We will both fuck you at the same time. Show your current husband and your future husband how desperate you are, how you are made just for us, yes?”
He can feel Shane shiver underneath his palm, one hand rising up to caress reverently at Ilya’s fingers around his neck, his words trembling and broken into a shallow, breathless rasp.
“Yes please… Make me take it, Ilya.”
Or: On July 10th 2025, to celebrate the 15-year anniversary of their first night together, Shane and Ilya re-enact their CCM photoshoot and stay in the exact same hotel at room 1410. When they find a confused, nineteen-year-old Ilya knocking on their door, they proceed to make the best use of him.
