Description:

Does it feel like agony for you too?

Being in love with a guy that everyone is obsessed with, most of all you? Shane and Ilya have that in common. The difference is in how they deal with it.

Part 1: Ilya
Part 2: Shane

Notes:

Series title comes from Romeo and Juliet, Act 2.

These violent delights have violent ends, and in their triumph die, like fire and powder, which as they kiss consume. The sweetest honey is loathsome in its own deliciousness, and in the taste confounds the appetite.

This line is about overindulgence, but it’s always made me think about having something that’s t o o good, that wrecks you when you want it but wrecks you anew once you have it.
