honey, tell me, are you good at staying still? by justhockey

Summary
Life feels so chaotic for Shane sometimes, with all the loud noises and the unwritten rules he’s expected to follow, even though no one ever taught them to him. It’s why the bookstore feels more like home to him than anywhere else in Boston. It doesn’t ask Shane to be anything other than himself. Doesn’t ask for any more than he can give.
He can just exist here.
Shane likes slow, likes taking his time. And Ilya - without saying or doing anything in particular - makes Shane feel like that’s okay. Like he isn’t doing anything wrong by standing still sometimes.
(Or, Shane works in a bookstore, Ilya plays hockey, and they both go to the same college. They fall in love in every universe.)

Or,
Shane Hollander runs a bookstore and keeps getting his packages misdelivered. By coincidence (or not), the packages belonging to Ilya Rozanov – the owner of the sex shop across the street – always seem to show up at his store. Shane is determined to resolve the situation. Ilya, not so much. -

Shane leaves that Vegas penthouse suite feeling wretched, and like an idiot, and like he never wants to see Ilya Rozanov again.
Except, well. Then there are zombies.

Summary
Logically, Shane isn’t stupid, logically, part of his brain is frantically trying to pull him out of the shock. Of trying to rationalize what he is seeing. But it just doesn’t feel real. Not even as he’s watching the torso of someone still crawling along the pavement. Not until he watches one of the soldiers in the footage turn the gun around onto himself and–
Rose screams.
Shane sucks in a broken breath, the trance snapping free and one name slams into his head- Ilya. Ilya. Ilya.
