Prompt: Smile
Pairings: HamaIzu, ?Izu
A/N: Bored. Bad day. Wanted to write. My HamaIzu Desktop told me to smile. You can pick your own narrator. ::hearts::
XD
I gave you that knife for your birthday.
You're using it to tear me apart.
Yet you smile all the while as you stab ever deeper still.
I want to scream.
I want to cry.
But my body has gone numb.
You ask how I like it.
I say, "Just fine."
I lied. I hate it.
It hurts more than the time I got burned with my mother's cigarette bud.
Or the time I caught you under the bleachers.
The Cheer Captain had your tongue, and he's had your heart for far longer.
I realize now, you've never looked at me.
You are now, confused, but it's not the same.
"I'm glad."
You smile. It's rare, and real. More real than anything else I know of.
More real than my broken heart—I can't hold it, but I feel it.
Though I can't hold you, either.
Because he does, when I'm not around.
And sometimes, just to be cruel I think, he holds you tighter when I am.
He's probably gloating.
You're his. He's yours.
Where do I belong in there?
"I almost forgot!"
You take another stab.
I take it back.
You're killing me.
