This was requested by Cwhip 1994. I hope you like it!

Meliodas smiled as he looked at the sleeping beauty next to him. Of course he was used to waking up to her, but seeing her snuggled down while cuddling with a blanket brought back memories of when she was younger.

"What's wrong Ellie? Why are ya shaking so bad?"

"I-I'm.. f-f-fi-ine..."

He chuckled at the girl with a button nose as red as a cherry and a poster stiff and shaky.

"Are you getting cold? I thought you liked the snow?"

"I-I'm n-not cold! I-I'm g-gonna be a knight just like you! K-Knights don't g-get c-cold!"

The small bean was only about six or so but deeply looked up to the blond. She idolized him and dreamed of being just like him when she grew up, something he found adorable.

"Well knights sometimes get cold too. Besides, why would you want to be a knight? You can stay here in the nice warm castle full of toys and fun things. Being a knight is boring."

"B-But you're a k-knight. I w-want to be like y-you."

Those simple little words made his hearts melt.

"Come here little bit."

He picked her up and snuggled her up in his jacket to help keep her warm since they were a ways away from the castle.

Walking slowly so he didn't jostle her around, he lightly coiled his darkness around her to help keep her warm and as a form of affection.

"Ya know kiddo... you don't have to be like me. You already make so many people smile by being you, so just keep doing that. Kay?"

"Okay."

She yawned and snuggled into the crook of his neck while he smiled and continued walking towards the castle.

It doesn't matter how many times I see her as a child. She's always so adorable at this age...

He smiled at the pleasant memory before carefully getting out of bed so he didn't wake her. It wasn't uncommon for him to think about those little memories of her youth as they were always some of the most peaceful in his mind. Especially when in most cases, her childhood was always very lighthearted.

He was reminded once more of another memory as two days passed and she came running up to him with a paper in her hand and an excited sparkle in her bluebell eyes.

"Look sir Meliodas! I stayed under budget today and they had everything you needed at the store! I didn't drop anything on the way back and I was extra careful!"
