    Summary

    “Taking a study break, Hollander?”

    Fuck, that voice. He couldn’t get it out of his head. Maybe he was imagining it even now. Orgo-induced psychosis.

    Shane kept his head down at the table, pretending to be asleep. Or maybe he was pretending to be pretending to be asleep, just to get a rise out of his tablemate. It was hard for him to keep track of his emotions and motivations at times like this.

    The man across the table cleared his throat and started speaking with his deep Russian accent. “I am taking a study break too. I keep getting all of the answers right, so I thought I would go on a walk to see if I could find something more interesting to do. Unfortunately, I have run into the most boring person on campus, so maybe I will keep searching.”

    Shane chuckled under his breath. He heard the chair move again before he felt hot breath right next to his ear.

    “Or maybe you can think of something more fun for our study break, yes?” A pause and a breath. “Study room 1221.”

    ------

    Medical school AU starting with Ilya and Shane as high schoolers and following them through their rivalry against each other in undergrad, medical school, and residencies. Very slow burn, lots of angst.
