    Summary

    And then, shakily but no less firmly, Shane honest-to-god sticks out his hand for Ilya to shake. In the middle of a dim, sticky, tacky bar. In front of a display of cowboy-themed knick-knacks, like they’re at an important meeting. 

    And judging by the look on his face, he’s completely serious, face set and eyes earnest. 

    “Ah, formal.”

    Shane jiggles his hand mid-air, waiting for Ilya to take it. He does, finding Shane’s palm to be warm and soft all over, save for a callous along the outside of his thumb that scratches pleasantly over Ilya’s hand. 

    “Ilya Rozanov,” He purrs, grinning wide when Shane flushes at the tone. “You are very young, Shane Hollander.”

    “Not that young.”

    “Younger than me.”

    Summary

    Ilya snickers, shakes his head, and mutes the television again. He pulls out his phone. Shane should be calling any minute now. 

    Ilya: Gossip channel is saying you have a new girl

    Ilya: Who you are buying jewelry for

    Ilya: Fancy Italian boutique jewelry

    Ilya: You are cheating on me? With beautiful Italian girl?

    Ilya slides further down the couch cushions and tips his head back, eyes falling closed. Facedown on his chest, his phone is a heavy, anticipatory weight. His lips twitch into a grin. 

    He knows, of course, that there’s no one else. He knows who the jewelry is for.

    Summary

    “What is grailed dot com?” Shane reads out loud from the computer screen.

    “How have you spent almost fifty grand on it in the last year?”

    Ilya doesn’t reply.

    “Is it a-” it’s like Ilya can hear the gears turning in Shane’s head, “Is it a porn website?”

    Ilya laughs lightly, endeared by Shane's choice of words, “As if you would know.”

    “Fuck you, I’ve watched porn.”

    Ilya turns to face him, a look of pleased incredulity painted on his features. He watches as Shane processes what he just said and then shakes his head as if to rid himself of the trance. Shane both hates and loves these moments when Ilya gets him to say ludicrous things in his own defense. As if he even needs to defend himself.

    Shane and Ilya talk about personal finance, porn and they are in love.

    Summary

    “Hollander, did you hear about this shit?”

    Shane glanced up from his phone. “What?”

    “Come here, look.”

    Shane crossed the locker room to stand beside Hayden. J.J. tilted his phone screen towards them to show a news headline. ‘Iced Out’ Is Catching Fire: Russian Rap Song Goes Viral Thanks to Hockey Star Ilya Rozanov

    “What the hell?” Shane heard himself ask. “Wait, they just asked me about this.”

    “I fucking hate this guy,” Hayden groaned. “I swear to God he did this purposely to fuck with all of us.”

    aka

    the one where Ilya's featured on a viral rap song, and Shane can't figure out why he keeps getting hard in the middle of games.

    Summary

    Ilya knows firsthand that the world isn’t comfortable. It’s loud, bright, demanding, a harsh place in direct opposition to everything he’s recently learned about autism.

    Is it so wrong that he wants Shane to feel safe here? To carve out a space where, even if only for a few hours, he doesn’t have to grin and bear anything? He can just be?

    Or: Ilya Rozanov has a lot of good ideas. Telling his fuck buddy that he should consider getting an autism diagnosis isn’t one of them.
