Summary
Ilya glances at Shane, at the way the dying light is catching in his hair, refracting. At that spiderlily mouth, slightly open and curling coyly, two teeth peeked through the dark gap like an American Girl doll. At that shoulder, bare and pale and close enough to touch if Ilya just leaned forward, if he just reached out and took another liberty.
To touch another person is to say: I know you will die, and I am doing this anyway.
His mother used to say something like this. About painting.
Every portrait is an act of faith, Ilyushenka. Faith and futility both.

contrary to personal preference, ilya gets a roommate.

Summary
“If you start out by talking about your weekend of golfing I swear to god I will stab you with a pen,” Louis said by way of greeting. “You’ll have to give me a few minutes though so I can see if I even own a pen. But the warning stands.”
“Hello to you too, dearest Louis,” Niall yelled from where he still sat on the couch next to Harry.
There was a clunk on the floor and what sounded like shoes hitting the wall as Niall announced, “We have a guest. You might want to save stabbing me until you don’t have a witness.”
“Well if they are obsessed with golf then…” Louis trailed off as he made his appearance in the living room.
Harry’s mouth dried up. This was not the alpha that Niall had described.
When Harry loses his passport after a weekend trip to see Niall, the inconvenience of being stranded in America becomes a little more bearable after meeting Louis. Or a lot more bearable.

“This is genuinely, like, the worst customer service experience I've ever had,” Harry muttered.
“Glad to be someone’s first.” Louis snipped back with that same smile.Bookmarked by xrainberry
