Title: Liars
Author: Swan_Secrets
Prompt: MCU: Maya/Pepper - lies
Fandom: MCU
Pairing: Maya/Pepper
Rating: G
Word Count: 100
When she says she's okay Pepper knows she's lying.
When Maya says nothing's wrong her eyes tell the truth. There's something wrong. Something deep and eating her up on the inside. A parasitic misery that was feeding on her soul.
Pepper had no idea what to do. Give her a crisis. A financial snafu, a production shortage, a legal catastrophe. But Maya... She felt helpless.
One night Pepper wakes and realises Maya's crying.
In the morning Maya asks "Did I wake you? I was pretty restless last night."
"No," Pepper smiled. "I slept right through"
She was a liar too.
