I am pulling up their email right now. Shane Hollander hates immigrants who speak bad English.( like his English isn't bad because he thinks it's a stupid language and particles are a waste of effort. )
[ But he's smiling like an idiot. He can't help it. ]
I mean your English is bad but that's not why I hate you.
[ The photo Ilya gets a minute later is of Shane, swallowed up in the sheets and blankets of his bed, wearing the sweater with bare thighs showing at the bottom of the frame. His face is mostly cropped out at this angle. He's clearly only wearing his briefs underneath, if anything, but there's something distinctly non-sexual about the way it's been taken.
Shane just did as he was told and took at picture of the sweater. He just also happened to still be in bed. ]
I know it is because I will always be better player than you statistically.
( because he was ahead in goals scored last season and is sure he would have been if Shane hadn't been plowed into by Marleau.
then he gets the photo and he forgets about anything else. there's Shane, wearing his hoodie, and Ilya misses him. he reaches out, runs his fingers over the phone screen as if he can caress Shane's jaw through it. it's been a week since he's returned to Boston and for the first time since he moved, the city that has become his city doesn't feel complete.
Ilya swallows the tightness in his throat away. )I have second request.
[ But there's a pause after he sends the photo and Shane waits through it impatiently, on the edge of fidgeting, acutely aware of how much the space around him is lacking Ilya as the chat bubble hovers. ]
