Guardian Demon (A Nanatsu No Taizai Fanfic)

Kiss, My Lady?

Elizabeth POV

Meliodas sat on the edge of Hawk's mom's nose, flicking his legs back and forth. His emerald eyes sparkled, waiting for the future coming up. His smile echoed pure excitement, his lips stretched out like a rubber band.

"You look especially happy today." I said, walking over and sitting next to him. I nervously tuck some hair behind my ear and avert my glance to my feet. My feet also start to rock back and forth, and my shoulders rise to my ears. I can feel my lips pursing together in annoyance. He's never looked this happy around me before.

Before I knew it, his face was directly in front of my face, and his eyebrows were furrowed in anger. "I hate seeing you like this." He snapped. "It's just plain ugly."

My hand snapped to my chest in surprise. My face grew red and steamed up. "W-w-w-what?? What do I l-l-look like?"

"Silly girl," He sighs, grabbing my hand and moving towards me. "You look beautiful- you just look so much better with a smile!" His face beamed with positivity.

My face turned scarlet and I looked away. "Stop it," I laughed. "You're embarrassing me!"

"No one's here, just me." He said, stroking my jaw with his hand. I was a little surprised by this, and my hand touched his.

"Meliodas...." I whispered, almost scolding him, but wanting the upcoming events all the same.

"Yes...?" He softly replied.

"Do you-----want to-------" I stuttered as my face became redder and redder.

"Kiss, my lady?" He says, coming closer and closer to me. His head turns to the side, and his eyes soften. My face goes back to its paler state, and the muscles in my face relaxed.

"Ooooh, look at YOU!" Ban snarls. Without us noticing, he slipped himself into the doorway. He leaned against the side, crossing his arms, smiling like a murderer.

Meliodas and my face became red again as we marveled in surprise that Ban had been watching nearly everything. I pushed him off of me, and scooted to the side. He did the same, averting his glance from my eye contact.

"You lovebirds. I can't believe y------" The boar beneath us shook and nearly fell on its side. It muttered a loud grunt and kicked at something at his back leg.

I fell to the side, unhurt, but when I looked beside me, Meliodas was gone.

"Umm, Meliodas!?" I nervously shouted. I looked around for him, but he was no where to be seen. My hand nervously gravitated to my mouth, worrying something terrible had happened to him.

"Don't worry, I'm down here!" Meliodas shouted, waving upwards. I looked down to realize he was sitting on Hawk's mom's nose.

"What?" Ban snapped, running towards the back leg.

"Meliodas, do you need help up?" I asked, reaching out my hand. He took it, and jumped up without me having to pull.

"Now..."He sighs, picking me up. I let out a small shriek, but he puts a finger to my lips. "Let's go see what all the ruckus is about."
