Change of hearts

Attach to you

"Mind telling me what happened?" He said with a hint of annoyance in it.

I gulped trying to make up any excuse. But deep inside I knew he figured it out.

"And don't try to lying because I'm in not in the mood for these games".

Urgh. Aurthur knew this was going to happen. I hadn't respond to his questions I stayed quiet. His hand still at my jawline. He ran his fingers ran down my neck slowly tracing the faded scars.

Shivers went down my body feeling warm inside. He grunted out of impatience.

"My patience is running low today Elizabeth so I'll ask again" he moved closer to my ear and whispered. "What happened". With him being so close to me my Brain didn't function. I can feel him breathing on my neck.

"I-I....." I stuttered debating if I should say or not. He moved closer to me if that's even possible. "I did them" I whispered back with a shaky voice.

He moved his other hand to my waist holding me firmly. While the other moved my hair away from my neck. He slowly placed a kiss on one scar making me gasp in surprised.

"I may not show it now but.." he placed another kiss on another scar. "I've grown quite attached to you" he whispered in my ear. My heart was racing and my face was red. Not even a blush but completely red.

"And it's eating me inside to see you hurting yourself" he then moved away looking at me. Caressing my cheek with his hand. His expression never changed. He still looked mad and annoyed. But is wasn't towards me if not by the scars he saw.

Soon the bell rang indicating it was time for class again. He grabbed me by my waist and left. I was still a blushing mess so I tried to hide it.

For the rest of the day meliodas kept looking at me. Or to be more precise the faded scars. He glared at them which I found kind of fun but didn't show it. I didn't want to piss him off even more.

It was the end of the day so we all packed our bags and left. Of course meliodas made sure that I made it home safe.

"Um you know you don't have to come with me" he raised an eyebrow and sighed.

"I don't trust you" he said plainly

"With what?"

"Your body." He grabbed my wrist and pushed my sleeves up show even more scars. He hissed at the sight then looked at me.

"When did you do those" he said not wanting any false information.

I stayed silent again. This time I didn't to those.  Father did. But i could tell him that so I tried to change the subject. Key word 'tried'

"Soo have you been staying out of trouble. I'm supposed to help you remember?" I giggled nervously. He tisked and looked away.

"How are you supposed to help me when you can't even help yourself" to be honest he had a fair point. I sighed in defeat. My eyes turned dull remembering all the horrible things my father did.

"I didn't to them" I said making his eyebrows furrowed in confusion. "Not theses ones anyways"

"Then who?"

"My....father" he was taken back in surprise. Rage fueled him up. I looked at the ground to not see him. He grabbed both my arms shaking me to look at him.

"Your father did that?" He yelled. I nodded slightly biting my lip. In the distance we can see my house. There was a car that pulled up grabbing both our attention.

There was 2 figures that stepped out of the car. 2 figures I thought would never come back. For a split second I thought my mind was playing tricks on me. Until I got a message from Veronica.

Bad news. Zenari is back.
