Tell the Truth
AN: I understand that there isn't a huge fan base for the Josef/Beth pairing so I'm not expecting a lot of reviews although I do appreciate them. I borrowed the first sentence from an icon and ran with it from there. I hope you like it. There will be a sequel.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything that you recognize here. I don't own Moonlight and I didn't make the icon that inspired this drabble.
Sometimes when I say 'oh I'm fine' I want someone to look me in the eye and say 'tell the truth.' Although, today was not that time and that someone was not supposed to be Josef Konstantin. I've told several other people, people who I'd expect to say 'tell the truth,' that I'm fine and none of them told me to tell the truth. Then, when I run into Josef Konstantin, the one person I would never expect to say 'tell the truth,' he tells me to tell the truth. I don't know what to do. I know I should just tell him the truth, but then again, why should I. I mean, he hasn't cared before when I've lied, so why now. Why today when what I'm lying about concerns him. Couldn't he just leave me alone and go hang out with his other vampire buddies, it is supposed to be poker night.
He must be able to read minds because he then tells me that poker night was canceled and once again tells me to 'tell the truth.' I don't know what to do, do I tell him the truth or do I insist that I'm fine and hope he doesn't push the issue. Of course I could always use the classic 'I've got to go,' line. I think that's what I'll do, but before I can even finish he has grabbed onto my arm and told me to 'tell the truth.' You know what fine, if he wants the truth he can have the truth.
"I love you."
