    Summary

    Shane pulls back, carefully cradling Ilya’s face. “Maybe we shouldn’t.”

    “You don’t want to?” Ilya’s eyes are bottomless; swimming with grief. He says it like he really means, You don’t want me?

    “That isn’t what I mean,” Shane says gently, brushing his thumb over Ilya’s cheekbone. Ilya’s eyes flutter shut, as if being treated so tenderly causes him physical pain. Like he isn’t used to it. “You’re hurting. I don’t want you to regret it in the morning.” 

    Ilya’s eyes open. “I have never regretted a moment with you.”

    Let's go skating by

    Summary

    Ilya gets his skates on and tests the ice underneath him. It feels nothing like their professional rinks, which are always perfectly smooth. Each little imperfection in the ice creates a bump that shocks up his legs, and he almost feels clumsy. Ilya hasn’t felt clumsy on ice since he was four years old.

    “Have you ever skated outside before?” Shane asks, noticing Ilya’s reaction. 

    “Maybe, once or twice,” Ilya lies. “But I am city boy, remember.”

    “Well, there’s no Zamboni.” Shane grins, and skates confidently past Ilya, further out into their small rink.

    --

    or, Shane and Ilya make the most of their Christmas break.
