    Summary

    Shane doesn't know how long they sit there in silence.

    He isn't counting seconds or minutes as the time passes by, quiet and heavy in the dim light of the hotel room. Instead, he counts Ilya's breaths—the ones that tremble and shake against the skin of Shane's neck, the ones that are buried in the fabric of Shane's shirt, the ones that become steadier the longer that Shane holds him as tight as he can.

    Summary

    Ilya is recovering after the brain surgery but recovery rerely is a straight line. And Ilya, done with hospitals, is up to mischief. Fortunately, Shane is there to make sure Ilya stays alive.

    ***

    This is set between "Hold On (I Still Want You)" and "Come Back (I Still Need You)" and focuses on Ilya's recovery after the brain surgery he underwent. It can be read as stand-alone but I think it's probably best to read at least first part of my series to get some context!

    Summary

    The morning is here. Shane is here. And for the first time, as the day begins to bloom around them, Ilya allows himself to believe that what happened in the dark between them did not disappear with it.

    Ilya lifts his head slowly from Shane’s chest, careful not to disturb him. Shane makes a small sound in his sleep, something soft and unguarded, and Ilya freezes for half a second, breath caught in his throat. But Shane settles again, his breathing evening out, and Ilya lets himself move.

    Now that he knows it’s real, now that the panic has quieted and the words from last night have survived the light of morning, there is one last thing he needs to do. And he needs to do it alone.

    OR

    After the tender confession of love the night before, Ilya sneaks away for a few moments alone, seeking out the one person he needs to thank.

    Summary

    “Hi Irina.”

    Ilya feels his blood still in his veins. His vision almost immediately blurs at the sound of his mother’s name falling so gently from Shane’s lips. Shane rambles something, almost to himself, before:

    “I’m Shane. Shane Hollander. And I’m in love with your son, Ilya.”

    Ilya’s breath catches, heart lurching in his chest, fluttering almost painfully as the realization hits him: He’s introducing himself to her.
    .
    .
    or Shane talks to Ilya’s mom, Ilya overhears.

    Summary

    After the miracle recovery, Ilya Rozanov and Shane Hollander are back together. One day, Shane gets a phonecall from Ilya's doctor. She asks Shane to come in immediately, alone. He is scared shitless.

    Turns out, there is no need to be because Captain Rozanov is clearly back in the game. And he can skate again.

    ***

    This is a part of my on-going "Hold On (I Still Want You)" series and cannot really be read as stand-alone, therefore I strongly recommend getting the context from the first fic!
