   Summary

   A retelling of what would have happened if Shane and Ilya hadn't immediately started sleeping with each other, due to Shane's self directed homophobia and fear of his own sexuality.

   This is angsty, raw, and will deal with some heavy themes, but in the end.. It's about two men who will learn to love each other, hardship and all.
