ilya rozanov casually scrolling his ig reels one day and comes across a couple edit of him and shane to honeybee. it’s scenes of them during games, during harris’ videos, the foundation footage, and public sightings. nothing new, really, except the fucking lyrics are like a knife stabbing into his chest and rip out his heart. when it gets to “here’s to hoping” it’s a montage of all their kisses on the ice after a goal and winning a cup.
shane found his husband sobbing holding his phone in his hand and a video playing over and over and rushes over to make sure ilya’s okay and ilya just looks at him and goes “i hope i never see what your face looks like going” and okay now shane wants to cry too ilya’s scaring him what’s going on?? and ilya shows him the video and yeah okay that’s so fucking gut wrenching shane couldn’t do anything but clutch ilya’s in his arms and whispering sweet nothings
