    Summary

    “Can I come to Russia with you?”

    Zhenya’s brain fritzes out for a second. “Sorry?” he asks, thinking he’s misheard.

    Years of pining can do that to a person -- make you believe that the object of your affections wants something more than they really do. Sid’s gone bright pink and is staring at the floor, so maybe it’s not pining-induced insanity. Sanja will be pleased.

    Summary

    He was just a kid, just like Sidney, and far away from home. When Sidney didn’t look away, Evgeni mimed swinging a baseball bat, and Gonch was right; it was clear he had no idea what he was doing.

    That was the first time Sidney thought they could maybe be friends.

    Summary

    “Sid, I’m so—I’m sorry,” Geno said. “My stupid—I’m ruin everything, I—”

    “Shut up, Geno,” Sidney said, already intensely weary of listening to Geno’s self-recrimination. “You’ve barely even done anything.”

    Geno’s voice dropped what sounded like an entire octave. “But I want to.”

    Summary

    The jumble of weird letters on Sidney’s wrist are different than everyone else’s—different than his mom’s, or his dad’s, and when Taylor gets big enough for the whole name to show up on her wrist, it’ll be different too.

    Summary

    “So I say, before I’m thinking through, I say am getting married,” Geno says and glances up at Sid and then back down again. “They say to American?” Geno seems reluctant to continue. Sid’s stuck on trying to figure out who Geno is marrying and why he didn’t tell Sid about it. “I say, ‘no, to Canadian.'”

    Sid makes a face. Because seriously, Sid feels like he would’ve heard if Geno was dating someone that seriously. But then again, he had no idea Geno had a kid until he was sitting in a hotel room in fucking Finland.

    “Who?” Sid finally asks when Geno seems like he’s not going to continue.

    Geno takes a deep breath and lets it out slowly. “You.”

    “Me what?” Sid asks stupidly.

    or

    The summer Russia invaded Ukraine and Geno had to marry Sid: a love story.
