OMG I FORGOT HAWK IN THE PROLOGUE! Also I apologize for using "Wandering Tavern" instead of Boar Hat bar... Told y'all I'd mess something up. I fixed it
Elizabeth is dead. She died a few days after she talked with Meliodas and the funeral is being held inside the royal castle. She is being places in a mausoleum next to her father and other family member. Everyone from the area is there including all the sins. Hawk was silently crying. And eventually the ceremony ended and every one left with heavy hearts.
Ban's point of view
Diane, King, Merlin, Escanor, Gowther, Meliodas, Hawk, and I are walking back to the Boar Hat. We were all silent except for the sniffles and tears that are coming from Hawk and Diane. We got to the bar and we all just kinda chilled and sat around, talking on occasion. However Meliodas shut himself in his room to probably be alone I assume. Soon I felt that its about time for some dinner, so I started cooking up some spaghetti and come cake for like, ya know, comfort food. I served everyone and looked over at Meliodas's door and I walk to it. I crack open the door and look at Meliodas laying on the bed "Meliodas, I made some food if you want some." I said to which I got no response. So I assume he wasn't hungry or he's sleeping, either way I can't imagine being in the mood. The day goes on; small talk, catching up, all that jazz. Eventually it got dark and was getting late so everyone fell asleep except me. I quickly get bored and walk to Meliodas's room. "Captain?" I asked and opened the door. There was no answer so I let myself in. Meliodas is laying on the bed.
"Hey Ban." Meliodas says quietly, obviously not sounding like himself. Distant and monotone.
"Hey bud.' I say and sit on the ground next to him, grunting alone the way. "Enjoy your nap?"
"Oh I wasn't sleeping.. I was just thinking." He replies.
I looked at him. He looks broken. He looks lost. He looks vulnerable. "About Elizabeth?"
"Mmhm. Just... Thinking about all the good times.. The bad times.." He started to tear up. "The beautiful times... All of them." He says and started crying softly.
Wow.. Seeing Meliodas like this bothered me. I've never seen him like this. I wanted to protect him and to make him feel better, because I know how it feels. So I climbed up onto the bed and pulled him onto my lap and into my embrace. He lays his head against my chest and I rub his head gently. He cries softly and hugs my waist. I sigh quietly and continue to rub his head and hold him. Time went by; seconds turns to minutes, minutes turns into an hour. The crying has stopped and nothing was making a sound
"Thank you Ban." Meliodas says suddenly. He looked up at me. "Elizabeth said to be happy.. And if I didn't have you I don't think I could be."
I feel flattered a bit so I smile. "Happy to help captain." I say softly as I'm rubbing his shoulders, looking down at him with a small smile. "So if you're feeling better I can just go to my room and let you sle-"
"No, uh.. Please stay." Meliodas says looking away quickly then looking back at me. "I'd like to have your company." He says. It sounded like he was a bit nervous but I shrugged it off.
I chuckle a bit and nod. "Sure thing captain." I say and lay down, letting him lay on top of me and put my hands behind my head. He got off and lays down perpendicular to me, laying his head on my stomach. We both lay there in silence and I occasionally glance at Meliodas. He seemed like he had something to say but he was too nervous to say it or something. Eventually I fall asleep. I don't know when but when I wake up Meliodas is laying against me with one arm and one leg. I chuckle softly and look at his face. He looks so calm and peaceful. I gently stroke his head and wrap an arm around him. He seemed to like it as he cuddles closer to me. 'Aww." I say under my breath. Suddenly I feel an urge to kiss his head. I never felt that before and it was interesting. Fuck it. I gently plant a kiss on his forehead. His skin felt flawless and warm, and I liked it. I think about the smooch for a while, and those thoughts go from a innocent kiss on the head, to a peck on the lips. Then the peck turns to a full on kiss, then a frenchie. I groan softly over my own mind. The thoughts progress to touching and finally to I'm sure what you can guess. "Dammit..." I say quietly and rub my eyes. I mean.. I didn't mind the thought. My body didn't seem to either. I clear my head and look over at the sleeping Meliodas and smile softly to myself.
