    Summary

    Ilya knows it’s a bad idea. Of course it is. But everything he’s ever done in regards to Shane Hollander has been a bad idea.

    So he sends the text, even though they’re playing against each other in just a few hours. Even though it’s reckless, and it’s breaking all their rules. Even though he’s supposed to be rebuilding the distance that Tampa tore down, instead of letting it shrink even further.

    But he just can’t seem to help himself.

    Summary

    Good riddance, he thinks. Or maybe feels obligated to think. He’s not sure. It feels like a natural thing to think about a brother who hit you and insulted you and extorted you for most of your short, miserable time together. He’s thought about it before, Alexei dying. The life he lived had not been conductive to longevity.

    I am the last Rozanov, he thinks, and that is an emotion he can parse, finally: closure. Like setting the last piece down in a puzzle.

    It’s only after the first puff of smoke escapes his lips that Ilya remembers Alexei’s daughter.

    Or:
    Two years after he gets married, Ilya Rozanov receives the news that his older brother has died.

    Summary

    It made Shane's head spin sometimes, thinking about an alternate version of life where he wasn’t in the room with them. That somewhere in the wrinkle of time, it was just Ilya and Svetlana. The way it was meant to be. They might have even gotten married, like Ilya once suggested. He couldn’t help but feel like it was a fluke of the universe, an impossible streak of luck, that made Ilya his.

    As they continued to talk, Shane couldn’t help but wonder if Svetlana ever felt the same.

    Or, Ilya books a birthday cottage trip for Shane with Rose, Hayden, and Jackie. Shane can’t shake the feeling that someone important is missing. Over the course of an eight hour road trip to the cottage, Shane and Svetlana come to understand each other.

    Summary

    Shane releases what feels like his first exhale in forever—Ilya Rozanov, taken out by the common flu. Not ignoring him. Not ending anything. Still, the knot in his chest doesn’t ease completely with the vision of Ilya unwell and alone in Shane’s head.

    JANE

    Are you at your house?

    LILY

    Where else, Jane?

    JANE

    Don’t fall asleep. I’ll be there soon. 

    LILY

    No, am sick. I told you. 

    JANE

    I heard you. I’ll be there soon.

    Or, Ilya’s sick and Shane wants, and wants, and wants.
