    “The whole world knows about you and Shane! Did you not hear me?”

    Or: Shane's phone is stolen in Sochi. They're outed and and have to go on the run together to get out of Russia before being caught by the Russian authorities.

    Summary

    Shane was fourteen the first time a number felt like safety.

    The nutritionist worked out of an office in Kanata, framed certificates, a calm voice, laminated charts with columns. She explained it simply: fuel in, output required, timing of each. She said it was a starting point.

    Shane took notes in the margins the way he took notes on everything—completely, past what was required. Yuna had found the nutritionist herself, sat beside him, and took notes too.

    Like mother, like son.

    -

    Or: Shane’s system works until it doesn’t; Ilya notices first.

    Summary

    “I feel bad, Shane. I want you to be able to sleep, if that is with twenty blankets, there will be twenty blankets. If that is with your duck, is okay, I can share you. Is not important, not as long as you are there with me.”

    “I don’t need them. Not… not when I have you. When you hold me or lie on top of me and let me hold you, it’s like I can finally relax. Like, um,” Shane's voice was gradually getting quieter, and he turned his face away from Ilya. “It’s like I can maybe just be… just Shane.”

    --

    In the years that follow their first summer at the cottage, Ilya notices that Shane likes to sleep a certain way. As the years go by, he learns it was always about more than just sleep.
