Summary
Maybe he was naive, but Ilya always thought he had time. Time with Shane. Time to tell him what he truly meant to him.
That, somehow, one way or another, Shane would always be there.
But a text message late one night threatens to destroy the future that Ilya has spent the time carefully constructing in his mind.
Maybe Shane wasn't always going to be there. That Shane would be cruelly snatched away from him before he had a chance to be honest.
That he would be left behind. Alone.

Summary
"Then Ilya had an idea. After all, he was a man of great ideas.
“Mm, what do you think about me teaching you to ride?”
Shane didn't even take his eyes off the TV—which was showing a Montreal versus Boston game—to reply:
“I think you already taught me. I'm great with Clipclop and—“
“That is not the kind of riding I meant.”
Shane's cheeks reacted before he could: they turned that flushed shade that drove Ilya crazy. But the best part was when Shane finally turned to him, with those bright eyes that looked like two blackberries.
It took a great effort from Ilya not to jump on the other man right there."
Or: They are cowboys. Ilya teaches Shane how to ride.

Summary
Ilya's face split into a wide grin. It made his eyes sparkle. Shane wanted to kiss him very badly. "Oh. Oh. You are very drunk."
"I wouldn't say very drunk. I'm normal drunk." Shane corrected, stepping closer to Ilya until they were barely centimeters apart. Shane reached up and wrapped his arms around Ilya's neck. They were so close and he smelled so good. Shane breathed him in for a second. Fuck, he had missed him so badly. It had only been two weeks, but it felt like forever.
"I missed you too." Ilya whispered. Wait, had Shane said that out loud? Oops. Maybe he was very drunk. "More than you know."
Or, the transition from friends with benefits to lovers is far from seamless.

What Happened Last Night Wasn't Okay... by purplepenguin87

Summary
“Let him live, Roz,” Bood slurred. “Season’s over.”
Embarrassment burned hot. Shane’s face flushed. He glared at Ilya, a look that said back off.
Ilya’s jaw tightened. He stepped back and put his hands up. “Okay.”
Shane stared Ilya down, maintaining eye contact as he defiantly chugged the remainder of the beer in his hand. Ilya fought to keep his expression unchanged, not wanting to feed into any drunken game Shane might be trying to play. He stood quietly, a few steps away.
But he watched. He always watched.
---
OR: Shane has a bad week sending him into an autistic shutdown and self-destructive path that finally sends a typically patient Ilya over the edge – requiring some hard conversations and punishment to move on. (Happy Ending)
