A Not So Lonely Christmas by acb132

Summary
Eric loves Christmas in New York, but this is his first Christmas since the divorce, and the normally bright holiday has him feeling lonely. Lucky for Eric, he happens to have really great friends who recently set him up to meet a very cute bartender at the Kingfisher. Deciding there was no time like the present to pursue his interest in men, an interest that had long lain dormant for the duration of his marriage to Holly, Eric sets out to woo Kyle and maybe, just maybe, not feel so lonely for the holidays.
This is based in the It Takes A Village AU universe. It is a stand alone and you do not have to have read ITAV to understand what is happening, but I highly recommend reading ITAV anyway!

Summary
‘David, is Ilya. Have suddenly got upset stomach. Sorry.’
Too cliched.
‘David, have broken both legs. Do not send ambulance. Will walk it off. Regards, Ilya.’
Too melodramatic.
‘David, do not want to go. This is Ilya.’
Too cruel.
‘David, I cannot embarrass you. You mean too much to me. Love, Ilya.’
Too true.
Fifth time’s a charm and Ilya sent ‘On my way!’ instead. David’s reply was immediate, ‘We’re gonna make a night of it, bud!’Or: Ilya is David's plus one for a function and is utterly unprepared for how David has been talking about him at work.

Soulmates (or Shane and Ilya winning the Love Game) by Justaromanticfool

Summary
He knew it stung Ilya, people not understanding. It stung him too. Because to Shane, loving Ilya was like breathing and also like standing on solid ground after years of drifting. It flooded him and steadied him at the same time. It hurt, knowing the world reduced them to a rivalry, a strange story, a piece of scandalous gossip when what they had was so much more. He wanted to be by Ilya’s side for everything, the mundane, the bright and the hard. And maybe not everyone who was in love felt like this, so overwhelmed and so steadied all at once. But Shane did. And if love was a contest, well… he is the winner.
Best couple. Number one. Most epic love story ever.Or 4 times Shane told people him and Ilya were practically soulmates and the 1 time the universe told him.
