Title: The wall will win
Pairing: Ilya Kovalchuk / Dany Heatley
Rating: R
Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction, it is untrue.
Dany’s idea of seduction is to be drunk. He’d sit in hotel bars not making eye contact, ripping apart coasters, counting the lights over the scotch. Ilya’s idea of foreplay is to pick a fight.
Dany was too open, Ilya could crawl into his body and slither around until he was behind Dany’s lips. Dany was scared silent, afraid every time he opened his mouth Ilya would be there, not smiling but bearing his teeth.
Ilya smiled like the world was setting up a punchline for him.
Dany broke first, didn’t book a return ticket, didn’t look over his shoulder.
