    Summary

    Shane finally takes it upon himself to get Ilya to quit smoking. (completely and for real this time) Shane’s not the most convincing person on the planet, but he does know how to speak Ilya's language and that language involves his body. He just hopes he can be more addictive than cigarettes.

    “I had an idea, though. An idea you might like…you might also hate it.”

    Ilya cocked an eyebrow, “Okay?”

    “What if, if you really need a cigarette, instead, you use your favourite distraction?”

    Ilya scrunched up his face, “What is my favourite distraction?”

    “Me…I mean…I thought…right?” Shane instantly second-guessed himself and got embarrassed.

    Ilya had a beaming smile, “Yes, you are very good distraction, definitely my favourite.” Ilya brushed a hand against Shane’s cheek and gave him a quick peck on the lips.

    Shane beamed at the gesture, “So instead of smoking…if you’re craving a cigarette, instead you can do anything to me you want.”

    “Anything I want?” Ilya's eyes widened at the notion.

    “Anything you want, but if you fail and you do have a smoke…then you don’t get me at all.”

    Summary

    “It won’t stop,” Shane said to the floor. His hands slid down and grabbed at his crotch, rubbing frantically over his boxers. “I can’t make it stop.”

    They were still in the fucking hallway, and yes, it was six in the morning, but it was not private. Anyone could walk in, from their own apartments or the elevator. And Shane wasn’t exactly being quiet, gasping and groaning as he massaged himself. Viagra didn’t do this. It didn’t make you lose all sense of space, of boundaries, of… yourself.

    This wasn’t normal. This wasn’t natural.

    ***

    The morning after Ilya watches Shane and Rose together at the club, he gets a call from Shane. Something is wrong, and Shane says Ilya is the only one who can fix it. Ilya knows it's a bad idea, but that's never stopped him before.

    Summary

    “You’re very pretty when you cry.”

    “Oh my god,” Shane breathes, squirming, but Ilya holds him tight until he looks back at him. “After all of that, that’s all you have to say?”

    “I’m sorry,” he says, voice low and honest. “But you are.”

    “You’re sleeping on the sofa.”

    “No, I still have to make it up to you.”

    Shane’s nostrils flare, but in the way they do just before he smiles. “Do you do this to every man you’re trying to seduce? Make them cry?”

    Ilya hums, amused, and lets his face drift close to Shane’s again. “Just you.”

    Or: Ilya doesn't let Shane walk away after his offer to let Shane "explore sex beyond Ilya," (pg. 217 of TLG).

    Summary

    Ilya's face split into a wide grin. It made his eyes sparkle. Shane wanted to kiss him very badly. "Oh. Oh. You are very drunk."

    "I wouldn't say very drunk. I'm normal drunk." Shane corrected, stepping closer to Ilya until they were barely centimeters apart. Shane reached up and wrapped his arms around Ilya's neck. They were so close and he smelled so good. Shane breathed him in for a second. Fuck, he had missed him so badly. It had only been two weeks, but it felt like forever.

    "I missed you too." Ilya whispered. Wait, had Shane said that out loud? Oops. Maybe he was very drunk. "More than you know."

    Or, the transition from friends with benefits to lovers is far from seamless.

    Shane Hollander is young and struggling. With people, with money, with life. He’s just started a new job and he’s working his hardest to be able to afford college and work towards his lifelong dream of becoming a film director.

    So what happens when a beautiful older man comes into the restaurant where he works and changes Shane’s entire life?

    -or-

    Ilya is Shane’s fucking sugar daddy.
