"Meliodas!" The young girl yelled running towards her best friend. She really wanted to tell him the exiting news, she had already told her sisters, her sisters' boyfriends, Howzer and her father and Diane had likely told a few people of her own by now.

"What is it, Elizabeth?" Meliodas asked her, turning around to face the exited silver-haired girl. His friend seemed like she was going to burst if he didn't let her tell him whatever it is she wanted to tell him.

"Diane and I are getting married!" Elizabeth exclaimed happily, spinning around in a circle. She and Diane had been dating for a couple of years now

"That's great, Elizabeth." Meliodas told her, returning the hug she gave him in her excitement. "When's the wedding?" Meliodas asked her once she let go.

"Oh! We don't know yet." Elizabeth told him, having suddenly calmed down, a blush now painting her cheeks. "Diane and I just got engaged so…"

"I see, so nothing's been planned, yet." Meliodas stated, chuckling at the somewhat embarrassed look on his childhood friend's face.

Elizabeth shook her head before going silent as she thought of something. Meliodas gave her a confused look at her silence, but at this point Elizabeth wasn't really paying any attention.

"Oh, please help me with this!" Elizabeth exclaimed all of a sudden before covering her mouth and looking around them, her face flushed in embarrassment from the outburst and the people giving her weird looks.

Meliodas blinked, slightly confused. "Help you with what?"

"With the wedding" Elizabeth told him in a much quieter voice than the one she had used just a moment before. "Diane and I decided to split helpers as well, I choose who helps me with my side and she chooses who helps her with her side."

"Don't you find asking your ex to help you with your wedding a little awkward? For both you and your Fiancée?" Meliodas asked his childhood friend, he already knew the answer on her part but he did want to know what Diane felt about it.

"No, why would I find it awkward?" Elizabeth asked him, not really getting why he seemed to be expecting her to.

"Hmm, well, does Diane know about this?" Meliodas asked her, deciding not to tell her what made this situation awkward, not wanting to make this situation unnecessarily awkward.

"Oh, yes, I asked Diane if I could ask you and she said I could." Elizabeth told him. Elizabeth had known who to ask to help almost as soon as Diane had brought it up and (in order to avoid mixing) had told Diane about it. Diane had acted a little strange once Elizabeth had mentioned asking Meliodas but, once Elizabeth suggested for Diane to ask King, she seemed to have realised something and had gone back to normal. "Besides Diane is asking King to help her and he's her ex."

Meliodas shrugged at this and gave the silver haired girl a smile "Sure, I'll help you out. So long as you help me out when I get married."

"Deal! Thank you, Meliodas!" Elizabeth pulled her friend into a hug after briefly wondering who Meliodas was planning to get married to, since he was currently single, but decided he may just want to get married someday and didn't actually have anyone in mind.

Releasing him from the hug, Elizabeth decided she should probably go tell Diane that all the people she had wanted to ask had agreed to help her out. "I'm going to go find Diane. Bye Meliodas." Elizabeth said to him before excitedly running away from him in search of Diane.

"Bye, Elizabeth."

It was before the wedding and if Elizabeth was nervous before, it was much worse now. She couldn't stop thinking about what could go wrong in the wedding, things tended to happen when they were least convenient. That was just a general fact of life really, but it tended to go doubly for Elizabeth, Diane and their friends.

Elizabeth paced around the room, trying to calm herself, while Meliodas tried to catch her so he could finish helping her get ready. He hadn't helped her with the dress of course but he was helping her with hair, make-up and jewellery and he couldn't exactly do that with her pacing around like that, he really wasn't sure how her sisters had kept her still long enough to help her with the clothes.

"Elizabeth calm down. Nothing's going to go wrong." Meliodas told her, trying to calm her down.

"But, what if something does go wrong? What if someone doesn't want us to get married? What if Diane changes her mind? What if-" Elizabeth asked firing one panicked question after another at him, knowing that Elizabeth would keep doing that if not stopped and wanting to help calm her nerves, Meliodas interrupted her.

"Elizabeth. Nothing is going to go wrong and even if it does, what will that really change? You and Diane would still want to get married, despite the setback, right? Even if someone doesn't want you to get married, you still would anyway, right? It doesn't matter what they think, what matters is your happiness and if marrying Diane is what will make you happy then you should do that and besides everyone invited are people close to either you or Diane, if they don't except your decision then they don't deserve to be close to you. And as for Diane, she's not going to change her mind, she really loves you after all, marrying you is going to make her happy too. So everything's going to be okay, all right."

Elizabeth stopped in her tracks at Meliodas' words and had turned to face him, her eyes widened and her mouth dropped. Slowly a smile took over her face, her eyes sparkling in her happiness (in fact she was practically glowing). "You're right Meliodas. Everything's going to be fine."

"Good. Now let's get you ready, shall we?"

"Yes!"

Elizabeth and Diane kissed and they were wed. They smiled at each other and the room was filled with the cheers of their family and friends. Meliodas was right, nothing had gone wrong.

And, even if something had, Elizabeth was sure it wouldn't have really changed anything. Because Diane loved her and she loved Diane, they were in love with each other, they were happy together and they were both certain that nothing would ever change that.

"Hey, Diane"

"Hmm?"

"I was kind of worried about today. I thought something would have gone wrong. I thought you might not want to marry me anymore. I'm glad that I was just being paranoid, I don't know what I'd do if you didn't want to do this anymore, Diane." Elizabeth confessed, happily snuggling into Diane's neck.

"I'm glad too." Diane told her "I was worried about YOU not wanting to marry ME. I… don't know what I'd do if you didn't want to do this anymore, either." Diane nuzzled into her new wife's hair and pulled her closer to her, if that was indeed possible.

Needless to say, they both decided to thoroughly thank everyone that had helped out and even those that had simply shown up and shown their support for their relationship before they went off to spend a wonderful night together to end of their wonderful day.

Well, that's the end of this oneshot. Despite, having been to a wedding, I still have no idea what a wedding would actually entail. Forgive me if some things were off. I'm pretty proud of this chapter. I'm planning to make another Eliziane fic in the future but first, a Melizabeth fic requested by TheAngelofOblivion-DarkMadness.
