    “Ilya,” he whispers. “I want this. I want to know when you’re hurting and when things are hard, because I want you. I want you when you’re sad, and lonely, and messy-“

    “-you hate mess,” Ilya teases, drawing a hard-earned smile out of Shane.

    “But I love you.

    Summary

    “Ilya,” Shane whispers. “Ilya, baby, can you open your eyes?”

    He’s met with silence, and the frantic tremor of his heart turns into an earthquake. The ice beneath him seeps into his veins and freezes his blood. Panic claws at his chest, scaling his ribcage like a ladder and lodging in his throat. He can barely breathe around the terror.

    “Ilya, you need to open your eyes. You need to look at me.”

    Summary

    It feels like he’s holding the entire world inside his heart.

    Ilya loves him so much. An impossible, unbelievable amount. It swells inside of him, warm and cozy, like a little pocket of sunlight lodged beneath his ribs.

    This love is the most gentle thing Ilya has ever known, and he can’t believe he gets to keep it.

    (Or, a perfect afternoon at the cottage.)

    Love is not always a helpful word. For them it means 'where you go, I will go, for the rest of our lives'. It might mean something else to other people.
