It hurt, every part of his body felt like it hurt along with his heart. The heartbreak has been resonating from his mind for days, ever since he found his crush locked in a loving hug with his older brother.
That day, Estarossa no longer felt the pain from his arm, but his very soul.
It was haunting, enraging, heartbreaking, he could've sworn Meliodas promised to sort things out with him and Elizabeth. It was going to be some way to get them together. It should've been some way to get them together.
You were a bit concerned for him, even as a goddess. You and Elizabeth are friends, so that was the only reason Estarossa tolerated being around you for more than three minutes. You were all kept up on Estarossa's very feelings for your friend, along with the fact that she was taken by the leader of the Ten Commandments.
Although you had no complete impression of Elizabeth and Meliodas's love for one another, their love was sweet yet painful enough to make Estarossa go silent for days.
Across a vast field of golden grass, you found Estarossa sitting nearby a tree where he first met Elizabeth, presumably deep in thought. You didn't want to fully disturb him, so you softly called out for his name. But the result... wasn't expected.
"Eliza—!" Estarossa flinched, his head whipping around to look at you faster than you can gasp. Once he realized it wasn't his crush, he froze. The wide-eyed look on his face was almost unidentifiable. Was he shocked? Scared? Angry?
His hand twitched at his side, his breathing slowed down as the look on his face calmed down when it was just you. "...what are you doing here?" He mumbled, looking away from you again. The demon was almost ashamed at how he looked at you.
You were only a friend of Elizabeth, so why... why did he feel so scared to look at you?
