    Summary

    Every time Shane asks Ilya to translate his sweet Russian murmurings, he lies to avoid revealing what a softie he is. But Shane is catching on and after learning some Russian, he's determined to catch Ilya in the act.

    Some beginning-of-established-relationship fluff between Seasons 1 and 2 AKA Books 2 and 6.

    Summary

    Ilya’s eyebrows shot up. “Are you hurt?” He asked, halfway across the kitchen already. 

    Shane shook his head, getting up and away from Ilya before he could touch him. “I’m fine, just overstretched yesterday.” It was a big fat lie, and both of them knew it.

    Ilya, obviously, caught on to it. “You don’t overstretch.” He was following Shane to the fridge. The panic inside of Shane rose until his whole body felt like a live wire. New tactic. Think. Think. Think…

    “It was a new yoga position,” he blurted out. He knew how much Ilya liked to watch him do yoga, that would most likely distract him enough for Shane to leave. He had a plan, damn it.

    OR

    Shane gets a tattoo and doesn't want to show Ilya (yet).

    Summary

    “It is the worst day of my life,” Ilya declares, throwing himself dramatically onto one of the kitchen stools. “I went to go get lunch at Russian place I like, the one with lamb pelmeni? They had sign on the door. They are closing. Forever.”

    -

    Or: Ilya’s favorite Russian restaurant in Ottawa is going out of business. There is only one thing Shane “Mr. Real Estate” Hollander can do.

    Summary

    “This one is almost full,” Ilya said from across the living room. He was holding something up.

    They’d both ditched their jackets and rolled up their sleeves, so Shane’s eyes followed the line of Ilya's arm: shoulder, to bent elbow, to bare forearm, to wrist, to hand. Ilya’s fingers were wrapped around the neck of a champagne bottle. Shane wasn’t really certain how many there had been lying around–Yuna and David had been in charge of handling refreshments–but an open, nearly-full bottle indicated that perhaps there had been too much.

    “Bring it here and I’ll dump it out.”

    “Dump it out?” Ilya frowned, crossing the living room towards the kitchen. “And waste it?”

    “What would you rather do?”

    Ilya set the bottle on the counter and came up behind Shane, strong arms slinking around his waist, Ilya’s lips just barely brushing against his ear. It wasn’t surprising–they’d both been a little clingy ever since the ceremony.

    “I want to share it with you.”

    Shane and Ilya's wedding night, after the guests have gone home, and a bit of the day after.
