Human in the underworld

Talk

-Elizabeth's POV-

Me and Meliodas walked down to the dinning room to see my parents sitting and waiting for us. Meliodas dad was sitting and talking with them.

"Oh, Elizabeth. I assume you are Meliodas? Elizabeth have talked so much about you, even though she didn't say the big details like you being the prince." Mom said. That is embarrassing!

"Yeah, I am. Nice to meet you." Meliodas said and stretched out his hand for them to shake. They shook it and introduced themselves. Then we sat down beside each other.

"So, why are you here?" I asked.

"That was actually what we was talking about." Meliodas dad said. Mom and dad nodded.

"We are here to talk to you Elizabeth." Dad said. Making me ask them confused "About what?"

"It is family business, so we need to talk alone." Dad said.

"We will let you discuss it by yourselves." Meliodas dad said. Meliodas nodded and kissed my cheek before they all walked out of the room.

"What did you want to talk about?" I asked concern. Mom was the first to speak "First, we want you to know that we are so proud about you and that we love you."

"You are scaring me now." I said. Then dad spoke "The war between the giants, fairies and humans have ended and the king of Liones wants to adopt you."

"If the king do adopt you, you don't need to have anything hidden and people will understand you better. You will also have a kind family." Dad said, but then continued with "But"

"But?" I asked.

"But it's a chance we won't be able to meet anymore or that you meet anyone in the demon realm. You won't return and it's a small chance that we even get to visit you." He continued.

"It's your own choice to go to the human realm or not, but we won't be able to take care of you anymore. It's because... soon, we will have a small pain running around again." Mom said with a smile and held her stomach.

"You will have a child?!" I asked in disbelief. Mom and dad nodded.

"Yes, a little sister to you." Mom said with a smile. I smiled back and said "But I don't know what I will choose. Human realm or Meliodas."

"If you choose to stay, you can never tell anyone about your race. Okay? It's important." Dad said. I nodded, but responded with "But I want to tell him. It feels wrong to not do so."

"It's your choice, but it can mean the end of your relationship." Dad said. I nodded.

"We should head back home. Bye my princess." Mom said and kissed my forehead. Dad did the same before they both walked out of the room and Meliodas walked in.

"So, what was you talking about?" Meliodas asked as he sat down beside me.

"I need to think." I said. He nodded and said "Take all the time you want, my beloved queen."

-Meliodas POV-

We ate breakfast and walked to the library. From there, we read. I wonder what Elizabeth and her parents was talking about? Elizabeth have been thinking about that non stop.

The rest of the day was like that. Elizabeth space out time after time, just thinking about what she and her parents talked about.

Right now, me and Elizabeth laid down in bed, ready to go to sleep.

"Elizabeth?" I asked and pulled Elizabeth close to me as I stared up the ceiling.

"Y-yes?" She asked.

"Is something bothering you? You act like something is." I said. She responded with "I am just thinking about what mom and dad told me."

"What did they tell you?" I asked.

"I have a choice." Elizabeth said, making me a bit more interested instead of worried. I looked at her and asked "What choice?"

"Mom and dad said that it was a adoptive family that wanted me. They said that I could either go to the adoptive family where people would understand me better, but I won't be able to see you anymore or stay here. With you." Elizabeth said.

I looked at her worried and asked "You gonna stay with me, right?"

She looked down and said "I actually don't know. I really love you and want to be with you, but-" She cut herself off.

"But?" I asked.

"But I would also like to be with people who understands me and like me. I didn't have any friends before I meet you and I won't have any either. You are the only one here that understands me." She said.

"But I want you to stay. I don't want you to leave." I said and pulled her closer in a hug.

"Meliodas? I have something to tell you." Elizabeth said. I simply responded with "What is it?" As I started crying. I don't want Elizabeth to leave.

"N-never mind. I will tell you another time." She said and kissed my cheek. The rest of the night, I cried myself to bed as Elizabeth tried to comfort me.

-Elizabeth's POV-

I woke up and walked got up from bed. I made me ready for the day as Meliodas woke up and did the same. He looked very off today.

He was oddly quiet too.
