    “So you learned all about the stars?”

    Shane hums an affirmative. “Not all of it. Just the basic stuff. The Big Dipper, Orion, that sort of thing. I always looked for the North Star any time I was outside at night.”

    “I used to do that too,” Ilya murmurs. “We call it something different, but I know the one. Funny to think we have always looked for the same star.” Shane looks up at him with suspiciously shining eyes. God, that face. No wonder he has always been defenseless against him.

    “That’s a nice thought,” Shane says softly. He takes one of Ilya’s hands and lays it palm up, tracing the lines with his fingers. Love line, life line, fate line, he hears his grandmother’s voice again. He has crossed every line Ilya has ever had.
