Unsettling
There is something about her eyes that annoy him. No not annoy....unsettle. They unsettle him. It takes him a while to realize why this is. And when he does, he quickly wishes he hadn’t. When he looks in her eyes, he can see the absolute trust she has in there for him and that unsettles him more than anything. She shouldn’t trust him; she shouldn’t want to trust him. They’re both Anti-Fairies after all; they were born to be bad luck and just general annoyances to the world in general.
The world they deal with is full of fairies that represent everything that is wrong and horrid. Counterparts to the good and noble fairies that reside in the next world over. And he is head of it all, leader of all the traitorous, back stabbing and malevolent Anti-Fairies that he can find. And yet...she trusts him above anyone else.
He tries to tell himself that it’s because she’s an idiot. The only reason she trusts him is because he wants her to trust him. He’s the one with the power. He can manipulate her to do whatever he wants.
But then she’ll smile at him and kiss him affectionately as they fly down a corridor and he admits to himself that this isn’t true. He admits to himself that he likes being trusted by her. He needs to be trusted by her, even if he won’t admit that to himself. He won’t admit any of this to anyone. Just mull over it silently at night when he should be sleeping or working on another plot.
And so she continues to look at him with those trusting eyes and he continues to pretend that he doesn’t care. Just keeping these thoughts in the back of his mind, wondering if someday he’ll do something unforgivable that will make that trust disappear and what he’ll be forced to realize if it does.
