    Summary

    “There you are,” Ilya murmured.
    Shane exhaled shakily through his nose. “I’m sorry.”
    “For what?”
    “For showing up like this.” Shane swallowed. “For being… weird.”
    Ilya frowned immediately, almost offended by the suggestion. He slid one hand higher along Shane’s thigh, grounding him there.
    “You got hurt,” he said softly. “Someone hit you very hard and your team lost and your brain is still running around in circles because you care too much about everything. Not weird.”
    Shane laughed quietly at that, though it cracked in the middle. “You make me sound exhausting.”
    “You are exhausting,” Ilya replied. “But I like exhausting.”

    OR

    After a CCM shoot that neither of them can forget, Shane and Ilya begin an anonymous email exchange that becomes more real than anything they’ve said face to face. Together they explore where communicating emotions gets you. When Ilya disappears, his emails stop—but Shane keeps writing. One year later they are forced to confront everything they left unsaid and unsent.

    Told through snippets of emails and intimate moments, they explore longing, learning how to be seen, and choosing someone—not just in the moment, but over and over, on purpose.

    Summary

    One night, half-asleep, Shane says to Ilya, “You make everything easier to exist in.”

    The words slip out gently, unguarded, like something he’s carried a long time and finally lets fall.

    It steals the breath out of Ilya. He goes liquid against Shane and turns his head just enough to brush kisses along the line of his jaw.

    Shane drifts under like that, held there by the knowledge that love can be quiet and spacious, that it can move through him in a way that is kind to his nervous system.

    -

    Tenderness looks a thousand different ways. This is theirs.

    “You don’t have to do that,” Shane said.
     
    “I know.”
     
    “I mean it.”
     
    “I know.”
     
    Shane went quiet.
     
    Ilya’s thumb moved once against his wrist.
     
    “I am doing it because I want.”

    Summary

    Based on a tumblr post from @notahungrywish, ending with:

    Just Shane casually assuming he'll always have to share and never be enough for Ilya and Ilya horrified to realize just how resigned Shane is to assuming Ilya will never be satisfied with him the way Shane is with Ilya.
