Summary
He goes to the fridge to look for the bell peppers, and while he’s in there, he says, “It was a good first kiss. As far as I could tell. I hadn’t really kissed anyone before.” He takes an orange bell pepper from the bag his mom brought over and brings it over to the counter. “Not anyone I really wanted to kiss anyway.” He cuts the top and bottom off the pepper and then works on cutting out the seeds. “Ilya’s a good kisser,” he adds. And he can’t believe he’s just said that out loud to his mom.
Shane and Ilya's dinner with Shane's parents at his house following the end of episode six.

Summary
And then his prayer from before the kiss was answered in the form of a soft knock.
Shane had barely made it up five steps. He paused for a second, wondering if he had hit the metal railing somehow, leaving behind a knock-like reverberation echoing in the stairwell. He shook his head slightly, as if shaking out the thought that it could be anything else. He continued up the steps more slowly.
Then there was a second knock, and a buzz in his sweatshirt pocket.
There was no mistaking either of those sounds. He practically snapped his wrist yanking his phone out of his pocket.
LILY: the car is not here, and is cold. can i keep waiting inside?
OR: What if Ilya's cab in ep2 is late?

Summary
“I was trying to be cool about it.” Shane's confession is a quiet whine, muffled into his palms. “Go with the flow, y’know?”
It’s almost unbearable, how much Ilya adores this perfect, neurotic man. “Hollander,” he says patiently. “You have never once gone with flow. Not ever in your life.”
There is only one grey cloud in the perfect blue sky of Ilya’s summer.
His two weeks at the cottage are almost over, and Shane still hasn’t asked him to stay.

Summary
Shane shrieked. “Ilya!” He toppled sideways on his mat, glaring, his cheeks flushed pink. “What the fuck!”
“What?” He said, innocent. “You were showing it off for me.”
“I didn’t even know you were here!”
“You must have known I would feel it in the air, like mating call.”
Shane laughed and threw his forearm over his eyes. “You’re impossible.”
Ilya is obsessed with Shane saying his name.
