Summary
“Why are you out here alone?” Ilya asks. “Who left you here?”
Hesitantly, Shane’s eyes cast up at the apartment building. Ilya follows his gaze, confused.
“I’m sorry,” Shane says softly, “I went home with someone.”
Ilya’s head snaps in his direction. “What?”

Summary
Through the fog, he can see Ilya’s lips moving, but all he can hear is “sex with other men” on repeat over and over and over in his head. Ilya’s lips stop moving and form a concerned pout. The silence fills the room, stark and vast. He feels so far away from Ilya, like there’s a chasm between them now.
“What?” he croaks. His heart is racing now and his body has gone cold, but he can feel beads of sweat starting to form everywhere. His stomach’s churning. He’s going to be sick. His legs feel numb, the tingling sensation slowly making its way up his body. He uses all his strength to focus on what Ilya is saying.
“We spend many months on the road. It is a long time to go without…” Ilya trails off, waving his hand vaguely, letting Shane fill in the blanks. “If you want to sleep with other men when we are apart, I understand.”
A wave of nausea hits him and he has to clutch at his stomach to dull the sensation. He doesn’t understand what's happening.
He knew this conversation would be serious as soon as he sat down. He thought maybe someone had found out about him or them. He had been preparing to go into crisis mode. He supposes this still qualifies as one.

“What, do they think I’m not checking my phone when I know they’re planning to be here around five?” Shane asks. “I wanted them to text once, not to spam me.”
“Is good for them to do,” Ilya points out. “Imagine if they had planned being one hour early. You were not checking then.”
Shane blushes and Ilya smirks at him. “Well, that was your fault,” Shane says.---

Summary
“I don’t want to smell that place again,” he says. “I don’t want to hear that language around me like that. I don’t want to be small again.”
His chest tightens. His breathing gets shallow. He hates this part. The moment when the past stops being something he remembers and starts being something he feels.
“I can’t,” he repeats. “I really can’t.”
There’s a long pause. Then Ilya exhales shakily and adds, quieter now, almost breaking,
“But I can’t leave her alone.”
