Summary
When they reentered the real world next week, Ilya’s guard would go back up. No one would know how deeply he loved this man. He would return to playing hockey, assimilating to a new team, and spending every spare moment working towards The Irina Foundation with Shane and Yuna. Ilya was grateful they were announcing the Foundation in a few months - he was tired of acting as though he and Shane were nothing but rivals. It wasn’t sharing everything with the world, but maybe a public friendship would ease the ache he felt every time he couldn’t speak openly and truthfully about Shane. He couldn’t show his love, but he could show his respect, and maybe that would be enough.
It didn’t have to be enough right now, though. They were alone, on the water at their cottage, and Ilya couldn’t help himself.
