-Elizabeth's Pov- 

 "P-Princess...you...a-are pregnant" Lady Merlin spoke getting my eyes to widen. Miss Diane shouted 'what' in fear and shock while Lady Merlin had another sweat droplet go down her face. I didn't know what to think or do. I noticed my arms starting to shake as I looked at the ground. "Elizabeth" Miss Diane spoke worried as I heard her rushing to my side. Lady Merlin was muttering to herself in thought while Miss Diane was trying to get me to look at her. She was in front of me, bent down to look right at me. 

Her hands going on top of mine as they gripped the ends of the pink dress. "Elizabeth...are you alright?" Diane soon asked as I was able to hear the pure fear in her voice. I-I didn't know how to really answer. I-I didn't even know how I felt myself. My eyes started watering as my grip on the dress ends got tighter. "I-I don't even know how to feel" I whispered while I closed my eyes tightly. Miss Diane whispered my name, her grip on my hands getting tighter. Lady Merlin gave out a deep breath before walking over to sit next to me.

"From my spell your only about four days along, being so early along...I can offer you a chance to abort this child" Lady Merlin spoke as I felt tears starting to form. My whole body shaking as I wasn't sure what to think. I wasn't sure what to do. This unborn child...was mine...was Meliodas'...most woman would dream of having children...I've never bothered really thinking about all that until I met Meliodas. Now...now that I really am...really am pregnant...w-what was I to really do? 

Part of me was scared...I was so scared but yet I was able to somehow feel some joy. Being a mother...having a child and family... "Elizabeth, if you want to keep this child...I'll help you in whatever way I can!" Miss Diane nearly shouted getting me to look up at her, my eyes slowly opening to see her smiling at me. Lady Merlin placed a hand on my shoulder getting me to look at her. She was agreeing with Miss Diane...I still wasn't sure...then again...in a way, I was sure about it deep down. I took some deep breaths. 

"I-I want to keep it" I answered in fear of Lady Merlin's response. I was shocked to see that she just smiled at me brightly. She was stating how she and Miss Diane were going to support me no matter what. That was when Miss Diane jumped up to stand up straight. "We're going to need to build a nursery, this is going to be so much fun!" Miss Diane spoke in excitement. Lady Merlin then stood up getting both of our attention. Miss Diane getting quiet in seconds yet again. Lady Merlin lost her smile, a serious look on her face.

"We must keep this from everyone until Elizabeth shows signs we keep this between the three of us" Lady Merlin then spoke harshly but yet sounded like a true leader. Miss Diane was shocked but soon nodded, I following her by giving a nod. I then asked if I could lay down for a bit. Miss Diane and Lady Merlin nodded, informing me to call them if I needed anything before leaving. Once the door closed, I laid down fully on the bed, on top of the quilt. I wasn't sure what to think much. Being a mother...

I wasn't sure on any of that. I closed my eyes taking deep breaths. "Elizabeth..." I heard Meliodas' voice in my head getting me to smile slightly, a tear finally going down the side of my face. I wanted him here. I wanted to be with him. "I'm nearly there, just wait a little longer" his voice echoed as I moved my hands. One to be over my eyes, the other on top of my stomach. What was this really going to mean? I still wasn't sure at all. I was scared but small amounts of joy and excitement started to grow...

D-did I really want to be a mother?
