Prussia's POV

I've become really good at lying.

I've become a master at faking a smile.

I've practiced so much, sometimes I forget to feel the pain in my chest when I tell you: I'm happy for you.

Sometimes I don't even notice how my laugh comes out halfway broken.

Sometimes I believe I really wanted to smile as you laugh about something he did.

But, usually I don't.

Usually the pain becomes so bad, I can't even remember what breathing feels like.

Usually my laughs shake so much I wonder how you don't worry.

Usually forcing a smile is all I can do to ignore the way my eyes begin to sting.

I got the announcement today.

I have to say it looked rather expensive.

At first I smiled at how nicely they wrote your name, but then I remembered no one else is in the room.

I guess it's rather un-awesome of me to cry.

I thought I heard someone at the door.

I stop the tears as fast as I can.

They ask if I got the announcement.

I laugh and tell them how stupid I think it is that you wasted all the money to buy something this extravagant.

They get mad at me, but I don't mind.

They ask me if I'm going.

I tell them: Of course. You're my best friend. I wouldn't miss it for the world.

I've become really good at lying.

I've become a master at faking a smile.

I've practiced so much, sometimes I forget how much I loved you.
