Ah, Valentine's Day.

A day where romance is in the air, roses being picked and placed in baskets with pink laced bows wrapped on the handle, and the occasional sayings of 'I love you' from various people. To many kingdoms in the land of Brittania, the day of love was celebrated as usual, but in the kingdom of Liones was a special occasion for the citizens.

A place where love blooms, many people from all over the land would often visit the kingdom since Liones is special with its Valentine's Festival. It's a special day indeed, very special too for the third princess in line of Liones, the young and beautiful Princess Elizabeth. As a princess, she had many suitors, the same goes to her two older sisters who often wear disguises in the streets at Valentine's Day to avoid staring eyes of men, just so they can be with their guards or lovers, Griamore and Gilthunder.

Back then she didn't really have a Valentine to be with, so much so it took a small toll on her, making Elizabeth think that maybe she'll never have a special someone to be with. Margaret and Veronica, her two sisters would comfort her when she would show signs of loneliness, even asking her to accompany them. Elizabeth declines their offer every single time, worrying that she might end up being a burden.

Her hope for a Valentine's seem to stuck, until she had met and encountered a notorious ex knight after the Holy Knights' coup, the legendary captain of The Seven Deadly Sins, Meliodas the dragon sin. Never had she thought she would fall hard for someone who looks like a young boy with an adult man's heart and mind. After her many adventures with Meliodas and the Sins was the time she had real friends who stuck by her side, people who are there for her and tend to her when she is hurt or in pain, especially Meliodas.

The thought of him alone makes her whole face turn red in an instant.

All of those events are now in the past now that it's been a year since the defeat of the Demon King and Valentine's Day is closing in once more, the people of Liones never felt more alive. Since the Sins' last mission was successful many citizens has high hopes and cheered for the Seven Deadly Sins, this includes Elizabeth.

Tonight, for their victory the team had many drinks at the Boar Hat while laughing as Ban rid on Hawk a couple of times to the point where Elaine has to resort to restraining Ban. Elizabeth giggled and laughed along with them, her hands holding a tray with drinks on them, "Here you are! " She said, placing the tray down on the table in front of Ban, Meliodas and King.

"Thank you, Princess Elizabeth. " King thanked her, calling her formerly and grabbed a mug, chugging down the booze while Ban almost smacked Meliodas with a bottle, laughing and swinging in his chair wildly.

"You don't have to call me princess, Sir King. I'm perfectly fine being called Elizabeth. " She kindly replied, swiping away Ban's bottle from his hand and placed it on the now empty tray.

King smiled and nodded, placing his mug down and ruffled his head in pain, he must've drank too much.

"How about you Elizabeth? You look a little down, is something the matter?" Meliodas cuts in, looking sober and didn't seem to be affected by the alcohol, and he had ten drinks tonight, which didn't exactly surprise Elizabeth since learning of his alcohol tolerance.

"Oh nothing to worry about Sir Meliodas." She then took the tray and walked away to the counter, while Meliodas being the pervy captain everyone knows watches Elizabeth swing her hips as she walked away. Ban then swings his hand towards Meliodas, which the latter dodged by ducking.

"I saw how you looked at her Captain! Haha seriously, just ask her out on a date already! " Ban cackled grabbing his cup and drank his drink in one go, making Meliodas chuckle and cross his arms. King fell asleep on the table, bonking his head in the process while he snored quietly.
