    Summary

    “That’s the thing,” Shane says, taking his glasses off and propping them on his forehead. It’s novel enough, and sexy enough, that Ilya lets the action pass without comment, even though he really prefers the glasses in their proper spot on Shane’s face. “I don’t think you should get anyone. Like, a housekeeper, or anything.”

    Ilya can't tear his eyes away from the glasses. "What?"

    "I don't think you should get a housekeeper in Ottawa," Shane says again. "For privacy's sake."

    -

    Or: Shane and Ilya get rid of their housekeepers as part of their plan to keep their relationship secret. Ilya discovers that keeping a house clean is easier said than done.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Shane is a sneaky liar that lies about his housekeeping skills. Like he probably doesn't know where his washing machine is let alone be pedantic about separating whites and colours or towels from woollen jumpers.

    Ilya is just as hopeless but you know Orphan and stuff.

    Summary

    “Is why I say when, Pike, keep up,” because of course Ilya Rozanov would have time for snark amidst his own mental breakdowns. “I am scared. I don't want him to leave me when he sees I am— this.”

    Fuck. They were doing this.

    Ilya needed water and around three kilos of grease if they were doing this. Hayden himself probably needed a lobotomy.

    Summary

    “Ilya, hey, hey,” Shane says, setting the plates down and hurrying around the table to Ilya’s side. “What’s wrong, why are you crying?”

    Ilya hiccups. “Is fine. Is nothing. I am just crying because Pike is so ugly,” he blubbers. “And it is so sad that these beautiful children have to look at his face every day.”

    Pike waits until Ilya’s got his hands over his eyes to meet Shane’s gaze and mouth 'what the FUCK'.

    Or: after Shane moves to Ottawa, Ilya develops a habit of randomly bursting into tears.
