Summary : Written for Primeval100 Challenge 200, Past Prompts - Challenge #50, Desire

It was there, every day, living behind his eyes. His first thought was of her, his last thought her smile. He never thought twice when life demanded he sacrifice, so long as at the end of the day she was tucked safely in her bed, their only separation a thin wall.

He knew he lived in deception: friends, buddies, nothing more.

She thought they were happy: best mates, movie night, nothing more.

Harmless lies closed the circle they cycled.

But every day it lived behind his eyes, and he waited for the day he’d see it reflected in her own.
