Summary
Shane Hollander has spent years watching Ilya Rozanov take care of everyone in the room except himself. He loves him for it. He's also, if he's being honest, desperately curious what Ilya looks like when someone takes that from him completely.
Their friends Scott and Kip are spending two weeks at Shane's Ottawa cottage for the off-season. It's warm, it's easy, and somewhere between the dock and the dinner table, Shane and Kip have a conversation that changes the shape of the whole summer.
Scott Hunter. Who is, according to Ilya, attractive in a very boring, reliable way. Like a golden retriever. Not interesting. Not interesting at all.

Summary
At the corner store, the guy asks what brand of cigarettes Shane wants. Shane has never paid enough attention to Ilya’s cigarettes to notice a brand name; he asks for Marlboro, because at least it’s a name he knows.
At home, on his balcony, he cracks the pack and lights one. The smell curves towards him slowly, diffuse in the city air.
He closes his eyes. If he focuses, it’s three months ago and he’s sitting in Ilya’s bed and Ilya is resting his chin on Shane’s shoulder. Stay, he’s murmuring. I am not done with you yet.
