   Summary

   I already chose you, Hollander.
   Shane should have fought for them. Shane should have—
   As his vision went black, the last thought in his head was Ilya is going to be alone now. His chest felt hollow as his breathing slowed down.
   Ilya, I'm sorry, he thought.

   [Or: Shane gets stuck in a time loop of their worst fight. Somewhere else, Ilya gets trapped in a loop of his own.]

   [Alternatively: a Hollanov Russian Doll AU]
