Elizabeth's Pov

"Elizabeth, Please meet me in the staff room at lunch time." Ms Rhea waved and walked away, Everyone stared at me, I looked away.

I feel someone still staring at me, I just closed my eyes and The next teacher went in. The Lesson started, I was just quietly taking notes.

I decided to go to the bathroom, I asked for permission and left. When I was In the bathroom, There were two girls talking about Meliodas. I went in one of the stalls unnoticed.

"I heard he's next to That lonely girl, Elizabeth."

"Yeah, But she wont have any chance with him, He wont even smile at her!" The other one laughed, I frowned. After a while, They left and I went out of the stall. I went to the mirror, I had some tears in my eyes. Why am I even crying? There's no reason that I should be,

I Cleaned myself up and left, when I was on my way to the classroom, There was a junior probably lost.

"Um, Hey, Are you lost or something?" I asked, She looked at me, Then it hit me. It's Elaine.

"Elaine?" I asked, She smiled. "Oh, Hi Elizabeth!"

"Where are you going?" She looked at the piece of paper, "The science room for Juniors."

"Oh! It's on the floor below us, It's the first door you see when You go down those stairs." I smiled pointing at the nearby stairs.

"Thanks!" She nodded and gave me a hug and left, I started to walk back again and suddenly saw Meliodas, He had his hands in his pockets.

I stared at him, He still had his poker face. "Sir Gil Wanted me to find you, You were gone for a while, But I guess you had an excuse. C'mon." He turned around, I followed him. Why did he come? Couldnt Diane just go? Did Diane to do this on purpose? I kept asking questions in my head.

When we went back, Everyone was silent. I had my head down, Meliodas explained why I took a long time. I looked at Diane, She just shrugged. I got confused.

when the bell rang, we left the classroom. I had to go to the staff room, "Why did Meliodas go after me and not you? What if I was still in the bathroom? He's a boy."

"I was supposed to but he suddenly suggested it, Since I was um, Actually talking with King." She blushed, I understood.

"I see, That's a great start for your plan!" I smiled, Passing the fact that Meliodas was the one who suggested he would just go look for me and not my own bestfriend because he saw that Diane was talking with King.

But then again, He might've just went because He saw Diane and King having a good time so didnt want their time together be broken by an order from a teacher. So in short, There was no reason Meliodas looked for me.

"Well, I have to go to the staff room. See you later, Maybe you should talk more with King." I suggested running away, When I got the staff room, I was greeted by Ms Rhea.

"Ah, Elizabeth, I need you to carry these recipe books to the Home Economics room for the juniors to use." I looked at the stack of thin books.

"Okay." I balanced the books and my footing, "I can just call someone else If you cant do it dear." She stated, I smiled.

"No, It's fine. I can deal with this." I walked out and was carefully walking to the Home Ec. room. I couldnt see who was infront of me but I could tell that everyone was walking at the sides since It was visible I see nothing but papers.

"Need Help~" I heard Ban's voice from behind me, I look back. "Yes Please."

He took half of what I was holding and we went to the Home Ec. room.

"Why did you agree when You coulndt carry all of these?" He asked, I shrugged. "I couldnt say no, I was already there."

"I see~"

There was a moment of silence until he broke it, "Do you know why Cap'n wont smile at you?" He suddenly blurted out, I almost lost my footing.

"What?"

"You havent noticed?~" He asked and looked at me as if it was the most impossible thing in the world.

"Noticed What?"

"He doesnt smile when you're around." He stated, I looked down.

"I notice everything he does."

"Look, Im sorry about that. I dont know why he does that either. But I do know you like him.~" He chuckled, I went red.

"You know?" I asked, He nodded.

"Ever since the day you smiled at him years ago, After that I'd notice you'd stare at him from afar, Smile to yourself, But then after he speaks to you when he doesnt smile. You frown. I'm one of the people who know next to Ms Rhea and King~"

"Well, Sitting next to him is the only thing I can get." I shrugged, He pushed open the door and we put the books on the table.

"Maybe he'll turn up, sometimes King and I make you as a subject on purpose~" He chuckled, I went wide eyed and stared at him.

"It's true~ We actually think you'd be a cute pair. We asked why he wouldnt smile when you're there, He doesnt respond and just shrugs~"

When we were done fixing them, We went to the cafeteria.

"He'll probably turn up before graduation, But why not try confessing? It's better to tell someone what you feel rather than getting bottled up~" He opened the door and I smiled, "I'll think about it."

He waved and walked away and I went to the table where Diane was.

"Hey, What were you talking about with Ban?" She asked, I groaned in frustration.

"King and Ban know, and so does our Adviser. Im so screwed."

"We could help you know." She offered, I shook my head. "No, You have to do something about your confession with King. Anyway, What were you two talking about?"

"Nothing really, He was just telling stories." She laughed, Then started blushing.

"How cute."

Ban's Pov

"That's unusual, You came in with Elizabeth." Cap'n stated, I shrugged and sat down.

"She needed help with the books Ms Rhea wanted to let her carry~"

"Ms Rhea could've called me instead of her, I dont think she could carry all of the books." He stated, looking at his food and slowly eating it. King looked at me and I looked at him, we both nodded and had tiny smirks.

"Eh, I Helped her anyway~"
