Summary
"'Ilya,' Shane says then, having decided right then and there, 'Will you come to my cottage? Maybe just for your recovery, or maybe longer?'
Ilya pulls back and looks up at him with wide, watery eyes, 'You want me there?'
Ilya’s voice is soft with hope, and Shane would do anything to protect each and every tender emotion in Ilya’s heart.
'Yeah, I can’t think of anyone else I’d want to spend my summer with.'
[...]
'Okay, you win,' Ilya says, his good hand coming up to cradle the side of Shane’s face, his thumb stroking along the freckles on the tops of his cheeks, 'I will come to the cottage.'
Shane’s resolve cracks and finally gives way, his elation is a flood washing away the usual scaffolding of his anxiety. Uninhibited, he leans in close to Ilya until their noses brush, with every intention to kiss him, memories be damned, they can make new ones."
--
AU in which instead of Marlow hitting Shane, it's Drapeau who hits Ilya, fracturing his collarbone, and giving him a concussion which causes him to forget everything since the draft. Luckily, Shane has the perfect place for him to heal, and hopefully recover his lost memories. Only the most precious ones, of course.

Summary
“Game is over,” he says. “You won. I lost. I was annoying. Normal.”
“That’s not—” Shane starts, then stops, because he actually doesn't know how to finish that thought without sounding like an idiot. His jaw works, teeth grinding together.
That's not what I meant. That's not the point. You said I was boring and you were right and I need you to say it again so I know where I stand, so I know what you think of me, so I can stop waiting for the other shoe to drop.
He settles for: “You were kind of an asshole.”

Summary
Nothing’s wrong. It’s just that Shane Hollander’s standing here in his kitchen, barefoot and dressed in Ilya’s softest, ugliest clothes, ready to help him cook dinner. It’s just that, after nearly a decade, after so much pain and heartache and distance, Shane Hollander is here in Ilya’s kitchen, looking at him with such obvious love and care and worry. It’s just that, after everything Ilya’s done over the years to deter Shane from loving him, Shane’s stubbornly, doggedly refused to stop.
It’s just that Ilya kept that stupid, ugly t-shirt—wore it by himself in his big empty house, wore it smoking on his balcony, wore it to sleep, packed it with him when he went back to Russia for his father’s funeral—because he thought that it might be the only bit of Shane he ever got to keep.
And he was wrong. God, he’s never been more grateful to be wrong in his life.
OR: Shane wears Ilya’s ugliest, most embarrassing t-shirt, and Ilya reacts like Moses at the burning bush.

Summary
“Am I too boring for you?”
He doesn’t mean to ask. Doesn’t mean for those words to come out. They fall from his lips before he has a chance to stop them, and the second they’re out there he wants to take them back. He wants to swallow them down so they can’t hurt anyone but himself.
Because Ilya…Ilya flinches.
“What.”
