Summary
“Shane you have…you have felt like you just did before in the past, da?” Ilya says softly. Shane hums, looping one of his arms around Ilya’s neck. Ilya takes his free hand, grazing a thumb across the back of it like Shane is something precious. “Shane?”
“Yeah,” Shane finally says, his voice grating out of his throat like it hurts him to say it. “Yeah, I’ve felt like that before.”
Ilya immediately feels bad for asking at all, let alone pushing Shane after he’d already given a non-answer. Shane had said it like he was confessing to one of things he’s the most embarrassed about, something that’d made him feel his lowest and most pathetic, and Ilya knows that it’s because that is what this is. It makes him ache.
--or, Ilya sees up close and personal just how much Vegas had affected Shane during his first summer at the cottage, they acknowledge that Vegas was fucked and take steps to prevent it from happening again
