But Rejoices With the Truth
He wore a mask so often, hiding truths and emotions within himself.
The mask couldn't fool her.
She could tell when he was thinking about past loves, past deaths, or past anything. His eyes turned inward and distant…
She could tell when he was thinking about the future- whether he would have to leave or if he'd be welcome to stay at the dojo. His lips would curl into a wistful half-smile…
And she could always tell when he was thinking about her.
His expression carried so much warmth…
She loved the truth he showed her when his mask slipped.
AN: Hope that tides you over until my beta can type up the edits to the next Shockwaves chapter... ;
