    Summary

    Shane Hollander wants to date Rose. But he is 18 and has never even kissed a girl.
    Rose thinks he should practice first. She practices with her best friend, Daisy.

    Shane wants to be a good boyfriend.
    Which means learning to kiss.
    Which means practice.
    Which means asking the person he trusts most.
    Ilya Rozanov has never said no to him before. He doesn’t start now.

    It’s practical.
    It’s actually smart.

    They already spend all their time together.
    They already share a bed.
    It’s just practice.
    Even if it happens every night.
    Even if it keeps.. escalating.

    As Shane and Rose continue their relationship, it makes sense to practice each step.
    With people they trust.
    (Even if those people don’t have the correct body parts for it to make sense.)

    This is normal.
    They are absolutely not gay.
    This is just practice.
    Ilya is exactly where he wants to be.

    Or:

    Shane Hollander practices kissing with his childhood best friend to be a better boyfriend.
    It works so well that they keep practicing.
    Every new step.
    Every base.
    Shane and Rose think this is a normal system.
    Ilya and Daisy do not correct them.

    Summary

    Shane’s heart dropped. He nodded once and sat up straighter, shoulders rolled back. “It is. I’m sorry if this is too far or whatever, but it’s what I want and I have to ask for what I want. It’s okay if you don’t want to. I’m not going to break up with you over this.” Or anything, really. Even if Ilya said he couldn’t stay a secret and wanted to fuck other people, Shane would let him.

    Ilya’s own heart split in two at that. He turned, metal scraping wood on the deck, and took both of Shane’s hands in his. Time and trust linked their fingers together automatically.

    “I’m not saying I do not want this,” Ilya began. Shane let out a small breath, shoulders relaxing. “But you must know, the things you are coming up with for sex are not things I have done.”

    Something about the cottage made him be honest. Maybe it was the promise last summer of being honest and saying how they really felt. Maybe it was the distance between that unknown precipice and the leap of faith they took together. Whatever it was, Ilya had to come clean if he was going to keep giving Shane whatever his brain and body wanted.

    Ishiguro and Dostoevsky inspired."
