    Summary

    Galina stopped writing to look at Ilya. "Do you think he'd be willing to talk to you next time it happens, even if it's late?"

    Ilya's stomach turned over. He didn't even want to consider it, but he knew the answer. "Yes. But he silences his phone at night."

    "Most phones these days have an option to let certain numbers ring through, even on Do Not Disturb. Do you think he'd be open to setting that up for you?"

    Imagining that conversation made Ilya nauseous. Yes, no fucking doubt, Shane would be open to it if Ilya explained the reason. "I'm not going to ask him to do that."

    Set during The Long Game, an alternate version where the plane scene doesn't happen. Instead, there's this: a car crash, a therapist's duty to report, and an urgent reckoning with priorities.

    Summary

    And really, he would’ve preferred if it was nothing. But no, what he sees is a string of incoming messages.
    Shane, you are the best thing in my life.
    It’s romantic. It should, by all means, make his heart stutter. But for some reason, it plummets instead. Ilya is still typing.
    I love you. Always. Maybe from the first time I saw you.
    Now Shane is really worried. Why is he-
    I am thinking only about you right now. A million memories. Thank you for those.
    Whatever happens, I am with you. Safe in your heart. I believe it.
    Shane suddenly finds it impossible to breathe. Something is wrong. Very, very, wrong.
    The plane-
    No. Absolutely not. No. He’s just freaking out, that’s all. Ilya isn’t in danger. He can’t be.
    Ilya? He texts back. I love you too. Please tell me you’re alright.
    No reply. Ilya isn’t even typing. Shane can’t possibly handle this.
    Please, Ilya, you’re scaring me.
    Still nothing.

    or

    The plane crash but angstier and fluffier (Ilya's phone shatters after he sends those texts so Shane crashes out properly)

    Summary

    At a quiet hotel bar in Boston, Yuna Hollander unexpectedly runs into Ilya Rozanov while watching Shane’s Montreal game. Their initially awkward conversation softens into something surprisingly easy, especially as Yuna notices the unmistakable tenderness in the way Ilya watches Shane play.

    Summary

    Maybe together they could figure out a way to make sure Ilya was never afraid of David again. He really didn’t want to be afraid of David.

    “Is… silly.” Ilya said. “Maybe not silly, but now that we are here and not there, I see it was silly. I broke the wine, and I thought - maybe everyone will be angry. And…” Clearing his throat, Ilya pushed past his discomfort to spit out the next part. “Well, angry back in Russia is not the same as angry here, I think.”

    “What was angry like back in Russia?”

    OR

    Ilya drops a bottle of wine, and it's fine. Really, it's fine. If only someone could tell Ilya's brain that.
