Summary
“You want to talk to people about me?” Shane asked quietly.
There was something small and confused in the question. But Ilya was still furious and raw.
“Well I would,” he sneered, “if there was anything about you that was fucking interesting to talk about! It would be nice to not be so fucking bored and miserable!”
The second the words left his mouth, he watched the pain roll across Shane's features like a thousand fractures shattering through glass.
Ilya had seen Shane nearly break ribs. He had seen him miss game-winning shots, take hits that left bruises blooming purple and black across his skin. He had never seen this.
Shane closed his eyes for a long moment. He shook his head slightly, a tiny movement, then nodded once as if agreeing with something only he could hear. His face twisted briefly with a fresh wave of pain before he forced it to still.
---------
What if Shane and Ilya don't make up so easily after the Boxing Day fight? The Centaur's plane never malfunctions, so Shane never proposes. Instead, Ilya gives him an ultimatum on coming out and going public. It backfires spectacularly.

Summary
This has an MCD—but I promise I would never let them die in vain. I believe that beauty can be born from tragedy, and this story comes with the promise of a happy ending.
If you can’t put your faith in me, please put your faith in them:
“This was, hands down, the most heartbreaking, soul destroying, gut wrenching piece of writing, that is also simultaneously breathtakingly beautiful, to possibly ever exist.”
“Your views on life that you able to impart on your world is also incredible, with some of them making me stop and genuinely consider.”
“The way I look at life and love and endings...you changed that for me.”
“This story is so steady and comforting, even through the pain because you face it head-on, without flinching, with love and care and a gentle hand.”
“It is a beautiful and honest portrayal of how they cherish every moment, and make the most of every day.”
“I feel this story, with all its iterations, is inherently human. And that touches people who yearn for this kind of connection and family.”
“So many words in this story have comforted me, and honestly I don't think there are any words that could describe how much this story has helped me.”

Summary
An 'innocent' video of Ilya and Shane is posted, and their lives are abrutply turned upside down. Forced seperation, security detail, no-contact and broken hearts ensue.
____He knows who it is without having to turn around. Even in silence, in darkness- in the dim corner of the world, Ilya has always had a way of commanding a space and making his presence known.
“Made it five minutes before running. Is new record, no?” Ilya says behind him, voice low and cruel.
Shane’s laugh comes out wrong, hollow and sharp, because of course Ilya would follow him just to be an asshole. He turns slowly, because part of him wants to see if this is real and part of him wants to rip the reality out by the roots.
“Fuck you,” Shane snaps, voice shaking with rage he didn’t realize he had. “After five months of silence, that’s the first fucking thing you say to me? Fuck. You.”
