Summary
“Board games,” Ilya said, kneeing them higher up his chest.
Shane stared at him. “You travel with those?” he asked, trying to go for scathing. It never quite got there. He didn’t have Ilya’s skill.
Ilya smiled wide and shark-like. “No,” he said. “I got them from Emily. Mrs. Lansow.”
Shane felt even more baffled.
“The owner of the hotel,” Ilya said.
“I know,” Shane said. He just couldn’t imagine Ilya interacting with that sweet woman. Or her asking him to call her by her first name. “Why? I mean, why did you get them?”
“You have better things to do?” Ilya asked.
“I have a phone. And a laptop. And there’s a television,” Shane said.
Ilya squinted dismissively. “Screen is bad. Melts your brain.”
“You sound like my mom,” Shane said, a little softer than he intended and smiling reluctantly.
Ilya tilted his head. “This does it for you?”Shane and Ilya learn what it's like spending time together with their clothes still on.

Summary
“Adventurous,” Ilya said, smiling sharply.
“Shut up.”
“This is unlike you.”
“Shut up.”
Ilya did, pulling open the sealed cardboard slots instead and upturning the box over his palm, not all that careful considering its contents were glass, letting the bottle fall into his hand.
“Shit, Rozanov,” Shane said, exasperated. “I was going to return it.”
“Oh, no, you will go broke now?" Ilya popped the cap off the perfume and sprayed it at Shane.Shane Hollander finds a hobby.

Summary
Never mind the next two weeks, the next eight hours stretched endlessly in front of him. He had no idea how to occupy his time. His house was basically empty, which sounded sad but was really a good thing, evidence he’d built himself the life he wanted – where he always had something to do, outside and with other people. Ilya had been restless for as long as he could remember, had never been able to sit still. He’d gotten in trouble for it as a kid at the dinner table and he got in trouble for it as a full grown man on the team bus. He’d gotten in trouble for it when the doctors had been trying to take the x-ray, his leg jumping without his permission.
Ilya gets injured, stops leaving the house, loses his mind, learns to read tarot, and sends Shane Hollander a lot of photos.

Summary
“I was thinking about the honeymoon phase thing.”
“Yes?” Ilya said.
“I think it’s different for us. I don’t want us to be all blissful and then only start fighting when we’re back to barely seeing each other. I think it’s good if we figure things out now, when we have the time. Whatever needs figuring out. So we have a solid foundation going into the season. Sort of like training camp.”
“So this means you will keep getting mad at me for things,” Ilya said.
Shane smiled, rolled his eyes. “Yeah, exactly,” he said.
“Good, I find it very hot,” Ilya said, and kissed him.An insecure over-thinker and a self-destructive thrill-seeker walk into a relationship.

If Shane had had a good, close friend, a confidante, somebody he could talk to about whatever was happening between him and Ilya Rozanov, and that good close friend got it in their head that maybe Shane liked Ilya, had feelings for him, one of the first things Shane would say to refute it would be: but he smokes.
Shane, Ilya, cigarettes - a love triangle for the ages.
