You're currently scouting out a town, looking for any evidence of Holy Knights lurking around. Being a wanted fugitive, you can't afford to be caught by those pesky people.

Meanwhile, your friend and former colleague, Ban, is strolling alongside you. He doesn't seem to have a care in the world, a fact that sometimes ticks you off.

"Ban, couldn't you at least try to blend in?"

He rolls his eyes to glance down at you, since he's super tall. "Why bother? No one here cares."

"I care."

"Aw, you care about me?" He teases, bopping your nose as you scowl at him.

You huff and turn away from him, "As if. I just don't want you dragging me down with you. Just stay out of trouble."

As you walk down the semi-busy street, you sneak a pastry from a table and begin to nibble on it.

"Tsk, what happened to staying out of trouble?"

Caught, you shrug your shoulders, "It's not trouble as long as I don't get caught. Besides, who are you to judge? You have the moral backbone of a chocolate eclair!"

He laughs as you shake your head and storm off.

Following behind you, he takes you by surprise, lifting you into his arms.

"What the-"

Before you can wiggle from his grasp, he sets you on his shoulders, "Would a person without a backbone do this?"

"I didn't say you didn't have a physical backbone, you idiot!" You yell down at him, bending over so that your face is in front of his. "Put me down."

His signature sly smirk spreads across his lips, "No."

Crossing your arms, you pout, although you secretly enjoy this. Seeing the town from this height makes you feel bigger than any obstacles opposing you.

You slip your fingers through his soft hair, a fact that makes his grin widen.

"Ban..."

"Hmm?"

"You've lived a long time."

"Tsk, I guess."

You think for a second, "I have too."

His steps never falter and you can't see his face, but you can feel his interest. You've never really talked to anyone besides Meliodas about your past before, so none of the other Sins really know the real you.

"I'm not immortal, I will die one day," you continue. "But, I've been around for millennia. I won't get into the details, but it's because of a terrible crime I committed in my youth... I must now walk the earth until my time is up. Until that set date, which I have no knowledge of, I cannot die."

You pause, trying to judge his reaction, "Well?"

"What, your past is your past. I'm not one to judge the life choices of someone. Everyone screws up at some point in their life."

You consider his words, "I'm not really sure why I even told you that."

"I don't know why either."

You frown a bit before he continues, "But I'm glad you feel comfortable telling me."

"We're friends Ban," you smile, "And I can tell you anything. But if you don't let me down right now, I will hurt you."

"Ha, I'd like to see you try!"

You fall out of his grip, leaping away from him, "Is that a challenge?"

Without saying anything, he smirks and gets into a fighting stance. You follow suit.

Safely out of town by now, no one is around to watch the epic battle between the two of you, which is quite a shame, really.

In the end, neither of you win.

You collapse to the ground, huffing and puffing, Ban doing the same.

"That was fun," you exhale.

He agrees, "Yeah. You know what'd be more fun?"

You turn to face him, now lying on your side. He mimics your actions, looking into your eyes.

"What?"

"This-"

He quickly presses a chaste kiss against your lips before falling onto his back, "Whew, I underestimated how tired I am. I can hardly move."

Meanwhile, you cannot move, frozen in place by the unexpectedness of his actions. You finally rest on your back, still shocked.

"You okay?"

You manage to release a squeak, heat flooding your face. Believe it or not, you've never felt like this before.

He chuckles, snaking his hand into yours.

No more words are exchanged.

Instead, you simply lie next to Ban, staring up at the sky as the daylight fades to black.

Peaceful bliss envelopes you as you hold his hand and enjoy the moment.
