-Meliodas POV-

I woke up, but Elizabeth wasn't in the room. The blanket was covering her side of the bed. I sat up and tried to get free from the tight rope without breaking it.

I accidentally fell off the bed while doing so and I also pulled the blanket with me on the floor when I fell. At least, I made it out of the rope.

Standing up and stretching, I saw Elizabeth's bed side. It was bloody. Out of worry, I ran around the boar hat. I saw everyone except Ban and Elizabeth. Ban was surly sleeping still like every morning. I continued to look, but didn't find her before I heard a noise from the toilet.

In a hurry, I ran to the toilet.

"Elizabeth? Are you in there?" I asked in a worry. Then I felt a tap on my shoulder.

"What are you doing?" I heard Elizabeth's voice. I turned around immediately and saw her.

"Oh, Elizabeth." I said and felt a bit embarrassed, but didn't show it. Then I realized, if it wasn't Elizabeth in there, that means that... Ban is in there. He will be so annoying because of that.

"Elizabeth! Explain!" I commanded, trying to think of something else instead.

"Explain what?" She asked.

"When did you hurt yourself and who hurt you?" I asked.

"No one have hurt me, sir Meliodas." Elizabeth said.

"Then what is that bloody puddle in the bed?" I asked. She looked confused until she understood what I meant. She blushed a bit.

"I-I'm so sorry. I didn't me-" She was cut off by the door slamming open.

"Whatcha talking about?" Ban asked.

"I'm a bit hungry, will you make breakfast sir Ban?" Elizabeth asked.

"Sureee, princess." Ban said and we walked downstairs to the boar hat to see everyone else in there too. They was all talking as Ban walked to the kitchen.

I sat down beside Elizabeth while Ban come out again and gave us food.

"So, Elizabeth, where were you?" I asked.

"Outside." She said.

"Where outside?" I asked.

"Do you need to know that?" She asked. That was... different.

"Yes, where were you?" I asked soft.

"Nowhere." She said.

"Please tell me, where were you?" I asked again. She stood up and slammed her hands to the table.

"I have already told you NOWHERE! You don't need to know!" She said and stamped upstairs.

"Captain? What did you do?" King asked.

"I... don't know." I said. We all sat down in silence and ate until Diane slammed her hands in the table and stood up.

"If none of you will go and talk to Elizabeth, then I will do it!" She said. I nodded and she walked upstairs. Just some minutes later, she come back down.

"She isn't herself." Diane said and sat down. We all eat in silence a while and after that, we opened the boar hat. I walked up to Elizabeth to inform her. Hope she's better now.

"Elizabeth, the boar hat is opening. Are you okay?" I asked.

"Yes, I am, thank you for asking." Elizabeth said and walked downstairs. A bit more at ease, I walked with her. We all worked a while, me mostly watching, before something happened.

Someone touched Elizabeth's butt. I was about to go up and say to him to stop like every time something like that happened, but something else happened. Something much, much more horrible.

Elizabeth slapped away his hand.

"What do you think you are doing?! How dare you touch me like that?!" She yelled. Everything went quiet. This feels very familiar.

"B-" The costumer couldn't talk.

"Don't you talk back to me! If you do that one more time, I will kill you!" Elizabeth yelled. Now I know why it was so familiar.

~Flashback~

"If you touch me one more time, I will kill you!" Liz yelled at me.

~Now~

I know what's wrong.

As fast as possible, I walked up to Elizabeth. Hopefully, she won't kill me. It's always the sweetest Elizabeth's that is like this.

"Elizabeth, come on, we will go back ups-" she cut me off.

"No! I won't until he understands that he can't just do that!" Elizabeth yelled. That shocked me even more.

"Elizabeth, I will take care of it, just go upstairs and rest today." I said. She did as I said and walked upstairs.

"Please, don't do anything like that again or I will need to kick you out." I said to that costumer. He nodded scared. Suddenly, a shoe was thrown at that costumer, but I caught it before it hit him.

Then I walked up to Diane who was closest to me.

"I will walk up to Elizabeth, make sure no one will skip without their bill. Tell the others too." I ordered before walking up to our room.

"Elizabeth, why did you throw your shoe?" I asked and gave her the shoe.

"He deserved it." She said and sat down on the bed. I walked up and sat beside her too.

"He was one costumer Elizabeth. He was drunk." I said.

"That's no excuse!" She said.

"Elizabeth? Do you have that monthly week now?" I asked.

"What monthly week?!" She asked.

"You know what I am talking about, but you never acted like this before." I said. Not in this life anyway.

"Because it's my first." She said and looked away embarrassed.

"Tell me if your stomach hurt or you want something." I said. She nodded.

"I will be downstairs." I said and walked down again. It didn't take long before the boar hat closed for the day. We all walked upstairs to go to sleep.

When I walked in my and Elizabeth's room, I saw her sleeping in bed. That exhausted huh?

With a smile on my face, I walked to lay down beside her and drifted off into a slumber. Dreaming of Elizabeth like every night. It was a nice sleep until I woke up by yelling.

Shocked, I sat up and ran downstairs, probably knowing what it was about.
