i‘m the one that you love & the one who loves you

Shane never gets drunk. But Ilya wanted one thing for his birthday, and it was a night out with his boyfriend. Now that they don’t have to hide anymore, Ilya just wants to be out with Shane. His teammates caught wind of the idea, rented out an entire nightclub, and threw a surprise party for him.

There was food and cake, booze and dancing—Ilya even got Shane to dance with him. Granted, he was several shots in and holding onto Ilya for dear life, but it worked. Overall, Ilya has had a perfect night surrounded by all their friends.

He knew it was time to go when Shane started to get shamelessly flirty, clinging to Ilya for an entirely different reason.

“You do not usually drink this much,” Ilya muses while they wait for their driver to pull up. Shane is leaning heavily into his side, their arms wrapped around one another.

“You said you wanted me drunk,” Shane slurs.

“When did I say that?”

“A few weeks ago. You said you wanted to take me out and get me drunk for your birthday.”

“I was joking, milyi.” Ilya laughs. He was half joking. Tipsy Shane is one of Ilya’s favorite versions of his husband. “You do not need to get drunk for me, you know this.”

“Yeah, but I had fun,” Shane replies, smiling softly. “Plus, I know you wanted to dance, and drinking helps me dance with you. I want to give you everything you want for your birthday, Ilya.”

Ilya’s heart swells, pounding in his chest like it does every time he is reminded how much Shane loves him. He presses a kiss to Shane’s forehead.

“I want everything you have to give me,” Ilya says, dropping his voice a bit.

“Yeah?” Shane’s eyes are fixed on Ilya’s lips.

“Yes.” Ilya slides his hand down Shane’s back to grab a handful of his ass.

The car pulls up, as if on cue. 

Pairing: Shane Hollander/Ilya Rozanov Rating: Teen and Up Word Count: 9047 Summary: “Well, it’s nice to do nothing,” she says, swiftly moving past the awkwardness. “You two have such busy schedules; it must be nice to relax together.” At once, both of their postures seem to deflate a little and she watches as Ilya’s expression melts into a smile. “Yes,” he agrees softly, eyes entirely on Shane. “For once.” Shane glances at him and he looks…well. She doesn’t know if love-struck is the word but she doesn’t think it’s far off. Shane settles a hand on Ilya’s knee and their smiles miss each other by a fraction of a second. It hits her then just how much of themselves they’ve been hiding. It’s one thing, keeping their romantic relationship a secret; it’s an entirely other thing to not even be allowed to act friendly towards each other in public. It has to have taken its toll over the years. It sits uncomfortable in her sternum that she might have inadvertently played a part. * Five times someone realises Ilya is good for Shane + one time someone realises Shane is good for Ilya.
