    Summary

    Ilya made his way over to the kitchen to find Shane hunched over the counter, his elbows propping up his own weight. He stopped short, surprised. It was 9:40 on a game day, and Shane hadn't even started his smoothie yet.

    "Are you alright, malysh?"

    Shane straightened, wincing. "I'm cramping a little."

    Ilya frowned. "Where? Did you pull a muscle at practice yesterday?"

    "No, it's not a muscle. It's just my stomach." Shane pressed experimentally around his abdomen. "Maybe it's something I ate. It's not too bad, Ilya, I promise."

    Ilya filled a glass of water and brought it over, watching as Shane drank slowly, one hand settling warm and flat between his shoulder blades. "Are you sure? We have a game tonight."

    Shane huffed a laugh. "I'm sure. I'll be okay to play — it's not even that bad. Maybe I'll do some extra stretches with my yoga and see if that helps."

    Yoga did not help. Not even a little bit.

    Summary

    And yeah, Shane knew that Ilya hadn’t been okay last time he was in Russia, but Ilya had had the very real excuse of a funeral to blame things on. Ilya had downplayed it as much as he could, and Shane hadn’t been there; he’d heard the fatigue and he’d seen Ilya’s tired smile, but he hadn’t felt the way Ilya’s hands were cold the entire time he was there, hadn’t seen through the screen the way Ilya dropped eight pounds in three weeks, hadn’t kept time when there were twenty hours in Ilya’s day instead of something closer to sixteen. Or, on the flip side, for the week or two after, when there had been approximately ten conscious hours in a day.

    It was one thing to see something. It was another to feel it in your hands.

    Ilya and Shane are so, so happy for their first year married. They’re playing in Ottawa together, they’re fucking winning, they’re together and out.

    So now, after a year, Ilya should be fine. He should be great. He should not be flinching at small noises or nearly punching people off the clock or feeling like he’s drowning whenever he’s not on the ice.

    Or: Ilya Rozanov, meet your PTSD.

    Summary

    “How’s your head, baby?” Shane asks, his voice soft and steady despite the lingering fear.

    “I have never had any complaints.”

    “Jesus Christ,” Shane sighs, pinching the bridge of his nose between his finger and thumb. He’s smiling behind his hand, though. The relief in his body is still a palpable thing.
