Y/N P.O.V

The next day, my head hurt like crazy. I groaned as I walked down the stairs to join everyone else outside the Boar Hat.

Everyone tried to force a smile on their faces, but deep down, we all knew about Meliodas's condition.

"Alright! Today we're doing a supply run for new foods and ingredients so get pumped up!" Meliodas exclaimed.

"Okay!"

"I'm so excited that we're finally working together again!" Elizabeth exclaimed. "Believe me, I am too," Elaine smiled.

Diane held my arm tightly, trying to drag me over to where the other girls were, but I hid inside the Boar Hat. "Noooo!! I can't go out there!!" I whined, trying to release myself from her grip of steel.

"Come on, Y/N! You look so pretty! You'll be fine!" I whined as Diane pulled me outside, me loosing the battle.

A blush covered my face as Diane pulled me out of the Boar Hat. Somehow, Meliodas had convinced me to wear the tavern uniform.....and now I'm regretting it.

"I feel exposed," I deadpanned. Diane sighed and pulled all four of us into a group hug. "Let's all have a good time, okay?!" Diane smiled.

I didn't say much the entire trip. I was way to embarrassed. I put my face in my hands and whined.

Soon, we returned to the same small town we traveled to in the beginning of our travels, where we met King, and where I reunited with Ace.

We all walked around the shop market to stock up on Vanja Ale for the Boar Hat. Most of it was gone because of the previous night.

Elizabeth held onto Meliodas's shoulder happily. I puffed put my cheeks and walked over to Gowther. "I don't know how any of you can wear this in public," I muttered, a bright blush on my face. "It's really revealing and quite scandelous-" I muttered.

Gowther laughed and turned to me. "I recall you never wanting to ever put the uniform on. Meliodas would beg you continuously. So why did you say yes this time?" Gowther hummed. "I was still half drunk and I never go back on my word," I sighed.

"I never put it on before to save Meliodas from Zeldris's wrath. Zel would either a: pass out from a nose bleed or b: beat Meliodas to a pulp for seeing be in such an outfit. Zel's a lot more protective than he seems," I laughed.

"You're feeling single again, Y/N," Gowther stated simply. "S-shut up!"

......

Not long after, the girls and boys split into two groups. Us ladies, had a picnic in a field while the boys went hunting.

We all sat down on the blanket as we talked to eachother.

I looked up at Merlin and puffed out my cheeks. "How come you don't have to wear it Merlin?!" I whined. Merlin sighed. "Meliodas could never get me to ever wear such a thing,"

"I bet you'd love to have Zeldris see you in that outfit though, Y/N~" Diane teased. I covered my red face with my hands. "S-shut up," my muffled voice came.

"Oh! Speaking of which, do you think al our kids will get together in the future they way we did?" Diane wondered. Elizabeth laughed. "Don't get ahead of yourself Diane," she laughed.

"Speaking of which, I'm sure Captain and Elizabeth's child will be adorable," Diane cooed as she played with her hair. "If she looks anything like you Elizabeth, the Captain will dote on her like crazy!" Diane continued.

"When do you think Ban and the boys will...." Elaine blushed at tbe very thought of marriage.

"Wait- since you're a princess will the Captain become the King? Although....I can only imagine the Captain as the Captain or the Tavern Keeper....we'd all be able to see him...any time at all..." Diane suddenly began to cry.

"So...Captain...won't go away? Will he?" Diane voice broke as the tears fell. Elaine comforted Diane and gave her a hug. "It'll be okay," she reassured her.

"Sorry- I just can't help it....I'm so worried-" Diane attempted to wipe her tears.

I looked down at the ground. I already had my suspiciouns that Meliodas was going to be leaving us soon.....it hurt to think about....

If he leaves.....I'll never be able to see him again....because.....I'll-

"Sissy, there's something we need to tell you about the Captain," Merlin started. "Oh I already know," Elizabeth's reply even shocked Merlin.

"Meliodas is going to dissapear from this world....but it's okay," she smiled sorrowfully.

"So you knew all along Elizabeth...but how are you okay with this? The one you love the most is going to dissapear from this world, knowing that- how are you able to stand there and be so calm?!" Diane's words made me think.

During that last battle, Zeldris made a deal that he wasn't sure would work.....but he did that for me. He went through all this pain....for me...becuase he wanted to save me....Diane's words- is that how Zeldris felt?

"If it were me, I could never bear it! We have to think of something fast!" Diane continued to cry. "If Meliodas's forces himself to stay, then the whole world will be at risk. It simply can't be helped...." Elizabeth spoke softly.

"Elizabeth, that's cold hearted..." Diane mumbled to herself, letting her tears fall.

Slowly, I stood up and let out a small sigh. "I've made up my mind," I looked down at everyone's confused expressions.

"I'm going to go find Zel. There's things I need to discuss with him. Merlin-" I turned to face her sad expression. "Please.......keep our secret for a little longer," I smiled softly.

"Secret?" Elizabeth's eyes widened. "I don't think now is a good time....to explain my secret...but-"

"-I have a feeling that Zel is no longer in this world, but I'll find him, no matter where he is and I'll be at his side," I unleashed my wings and smiled. "I'll be staying at the Boar Hat for a little longer. But my tommorow morning, I'll be gone," I flew back to the Boar Hat without any warning.

The sun set and slowly, everyone returned to the Boar Hat. I slowly opened the door to see Meliodas gaze out the window sorrowfully.

"Hey Mel," I smiled. He looked at me and smiled sadly. "Yo!" He greeted cheerfully before his mood changed. "Merlin told me....that you were going to go look for Zeldris," I nodded.

"I am," I smiled. "I've heard that you are going to be heading to the Demon Realm. I just came to say goodbye," I whispered softly.

"What do you mean?" Meliodas asked, his green eyes showing worry.

"I won't be able to see you again, Mel, if you go there," I sadly addmitted. Tears welled up in my eyes. "I'm really sad that our journey has come to an end," I cried.

"I'm so happy that I got to be with you and Elizabeth the entire way. You two can be happy now. I won't be shocked if she ends up going with you," I chuckled softly.

"You've been my closest friend. You brought me and the Seven Deadly Sins together. I'll forever me grateful," I smiled happily. I ran towards him and engulfed him in a hug.

I cried into his chest, but still I kept a smile. I looked down at him with a determined gaze. "I'll find Zel and I'll bring him back. He deserves to be happy," I smiled. Leaning down, I kissed Meliodas' forehead.

"Consider that, a good luck charm. I suppose that this is where we say goodbye, Meliodas,"

His eyes began to tear up, but he managed to pull out a smile. "I suppose so. You better go and make my brother happy!"

I almost was out the door until Meliodas had hugged me from behind. "You'll always be my dear friend. Never forget that,"

I turned to face Meliodas and nodded. "I won't!"
