   Summary

   "I do not know how to say what I mean." Ilya said, staring past Shane, willing himself to look tough and one-dimensional and not like he was wilting away. Shane rubbed a thumb over Ilya's cheek and tilted his head so that he was in Ilya's line of sight. 

   "You don't know how to say it in English?" Shane asked curiously. Ilya shook his head. 

   "No, I don't know how to say it at all. Even in Russian. Is... Is hard." Ilya said, hopelessly. He was certain that no matter what he did, Shane would leave him again. 

   Or: What happened after Shane and Ilya talked in the hotel room after the All-Star game, and what happened moments after the "marriage" discussion.
