DAFTPLAY

instead of david seeing shane and ilya making out against a window, both of shane’s parents find them wrapped around each other asleep on the couch. and they were already trying to be quiet out of respect for shane’s silent retreat, but now they’re truly speechless. until yuna breathes out an involuntary “oh,” and shane wakes up and sees them and sits up so fast he hits ilya in the face. ilya says “OW shane what the fuck?” and his nose is bleeding and shane holds his face and says “fuck i’m sorry are you okay” and yuna says “oh let me grab some ice,” and then suddenly shane is holding an ice pack wrapped in a towel to ilya’s face, still sitting in his lap, and ilya breaks the silence with a slightly muffled “hello. i am ilya.” david says, “um. two minutes for roughing?” and shane chokes out, “jesus fucking christ”
