    Summary

    Hi Ilya,

    My name is Shane! I don’t speak Russian, I hope that’s okay. I’m also 25 years old and I love hockey too! So we have some things in common.

    I’ve never written an inmate before. I don’t really know why I’m doing this. I guess I’m lonely. I’m not very good at making friends or dating. I think maybe I can be a bit awkward in person, but I’m good at writing. So I hope that’s okay.

    or Shane Hollander finds Ilya Rozanov on WriteAPrisoner.com and sends him an email.

    Summary

    “Ilya has been… I’m not sure. Working through something?” he starts. “Maybe he thinks he’s trying to work me through something.”
    “Go on.” She takes a delicate sip from her glass of white wine, and it makes Shane wish he’d ordered something more than sparkling water with lime. Stupid performance diet. Stupid hockey.
    “He keeps asking me for details about the sex we had.”
    “Like you and me?” Rose asks doing a little finger dance between them as she does.
    Shane nods.
    “Is he jealous?”
    “Maybe, but like he knows it was bad and wants to know why it was so bad and all that,” Shane explains. “He won’t really say why he’s asking all these questions about it. I’m not even sure he knows.”
    Rose gets a contemplative look. “Is he like floating the idea of a threesome?”

    OR

    Ilya (and Rose) talks Shane into a threesome. It's... a process.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander wants to date Rose. But he is 18 and has never even kissed a girl.
    Rose thinks he should practice first. She practices with her best friend, Daisy.

    Shane wants to be a good boyfriend
    Which means learning to kiss.
    Which means practice.
    Which means asking the person he trusts most.
    Ilya Rozanov has never said no to him before. He doesn’t start now.

    It’s practical.
    It’s actually smart.

    They already spend all their time together.
    They already share a bed.
    It’s just practice.
    Even if it happens every night.
    Even if it keeps.. escalating.

    As Shane and Rose continue their relationship, it makes sense to practice each step.
    With people they trust.
    (Even if those people don’t have the correct body parts for it to make sense.)

    This is normal.
    They are absolutely not gay.
    This is just practice.
    Ilya is exactly where he wants to be.

    Or:

    Shane Hollander practices kissing with his childhood best friend to be a better boyfriend.
    It works so well that they keep practicing.
    Every new step.
    Every base.
    Shane and Rose think this is a normal system.
    Ilya and Daisy do not correct them.

    Summary

    It’s like they’re in a fucked up game of relationship chicken now, increasingly doing things together that Shane can’t describe as anything other than domestic and romantic and boyfriend-like. They text constantly, detailing their days and sharing everything from complaints about teammates to jokes about other players in the league to the kind of quiet worries about family that don’t need to be responded to, just heard by another person.

    Or maybe it’s like Schroedinger’s cat. As long as Shane doesn’t ask, doesn’t speak out loud, he can have this. It can exist, and it cannot exist at the same time as long as Shane doesn’t press too hard. Doesn’t want too much.

    It feels increasingly like agony now that he’s realized that he loves Ilya.

    ...

    Tunameltdown AU where Ilya makes him tuna melts and says his name and Shane doesn’t freak out and run away. Well, he does freak out, but he also stays. Or the one where Shane doesn’t realize that Ilya’s his boyfriend for a solid three months.
