    Summary

    “You are having sex really loudly. Actually your girlfriend. She’s really loud. I have an exam in the morning, or 6 hours from now and I really can’t live under a bridge so please can you guys keep it down?”

    “Not my girlfriend,” his neighbor said, smiling at Shane’s 2AM word vomit.

    “That makes sense,” Shane says without thinking.

    “Why does it make sense?,” his neighbor asked with curiosity sparking in his eyes.

    “She’s moaning like she has something to prove,” Shane said bluntly.

    Summary

    After the Boxing Day fight, they don't talk it out. There's no crash, no final words over instagram. Just a letter on a coffee table saying "I'm done" and a blocked number.
    Shane's world crashes around him.
    Now it's 7 years later. Shane is retiring, reminded of everything he and Ilya planned. After an off the cuff comment at his retirement press conference he hears from Ilya, for the first time since the fight, asking to go out for drinks.
    How bad could this be?
