Summary
A Jax/Reader story where you are your own character:
You've been in the circus for about a week and have settled in surprisingly well. The others are... strange, but mostly likable. Jax, however, is another story entirely.
After spending a week as the target of his endless torment, you want nothing to do with him. Unfortunately, an adventure forces the two of you together. Along the way, you begin noticing small cracks in his usual smug demeanor; glimpses of something hidden beneath the jokes and insults.
As time passes, you grow closer. You learn to see the person behind the mask instead of the asshole wearing it. But the closer you get, the more fragile that mask becomes. For every step you take forward, he seems to take three steps back.
