Moonlight entered through the curtains illuminating lightly a small room occupied by a young, vivid boy. Said boy had messy, spiky, gray hair, green eyes, and was entering adulthood -in the Clover Kingdom, you were considered an adult at 15-.

The boy, Asta, couldn't get any sleep, he was too nervous for that. Tomorrow the Magic Emperor held an exam to select the members of the Royal Knights party. Magic Knights of every squad would participate in the selection, some of them were very strong and experienced, but Asta was confident he could make it. He trained everyday as hard as he could, as he used to do in his natal Hage. That didn't stop him from feeling tense though. The exam was another cornerstone he had to overcome in his dream to become Magic Emperor.

Asta started at the sound of knocks in his wooden door. It was really late in the night, and he wondered who could be. He walked dressed in his white shirt and black pants, and pulled the handle.

"Mimosa?". The young boy scratched his head in surprise.

"Can I... come inside?", she asked coyly.

Many people considered Asta to be a dense, and they were right, he was that, but even him was wary of letting in a young maiden, who was also royal, at night in his private quarters, and what it implied. However, Asta dismissed the idea, Mimosa was too sweet and innocent for that, surely there was a reason for her visit.

"Sure"

Mimosa smoothed with her hand the blankets before sitting down in the modest bed while blushing slightly. Asta quickly followed up and sat next to her, staring into the walls.

"Umm Asta... Are you... nervous for tomorrow?", her amber eyes looked at him. They were beautiful.

The young boy nodded. "I guessed you would. I couldn't either. That is why, um... I came here", although still shy, the young female Knight was quickly gaining confidence.

Asta nodded again, deep in thought. "You know, Mimosa... I am all worked up because I don't want to fail tomorrow. I want to get stronger everyday, be acknowledged by the captains, the nobles, the country... And show them that everyone can follow their dreams, even if they are nobody, orphans like me".

Mimosa was amazed at the sudden confession, but she managed to smile.

"That is amazing, Asta. On the contrary, I only became a Magic Knight because it is what I was supposed to be, as a Vermillion. It is only now that I see the good we do, the help and protection we give to the people".

While she said that, Asta saw the passion behind the young lady's eyes. He already liked Mimosa, but know, he looked at her with closely. She had always been a sweetheart and now that they were alone, the moonlight made her look absolutely beautiful.

Mimosa caught him staring and blushed.

"Do you feel better know?", she sweetly asked.

"Yeah... Thank you, Mimosa".

At that, she smiled again. Then, she regained a fiery blush, and closed a bit the distance between them.

"You know, Asta... I can do much more for you...".

She went down on her knees positioning between his legs. They locked eyes for a while, Asta shivered when he felt her delicate hand brush his hand against his knee, swallowing loudly at her hand traveling further, up to the tightness in his pants.

"Mimosa... Are you sure of this?". As much as he wanted it happening, he still had to ask her.

"Yes. I have wanted for some time", she reassured him confidently.

He gulped again, but nodded. That was all she needed to grip his member through the thin clothes. Mimosa gasped at the hardness, making Asta moan. Even if she had gathered up all her courage to do this, she actually had zero experience in sexual matters. His moan, however, told she was in a good path.

With his help, she unbuttoned the black trousers, followed up by removing his underwear. She yelped when his member hit her straight in the face. Mimosa looked astonished at the large, veiny tool. Even a girl as inexperienced as her would know she had an impressive cock in her hands.

Mimosa was drown to the erect cock, so she wrapped her right hand around the hard flesh. The warmth and thickness impressed her. With the other hand, she massaged the entire length, up to down, Asta growling in pleasure as a result.

"Mimosa!"

His growl startled her but she smiled slightly at the thought that she was making him feel good. That was her goal, after all. And she wanted to make him feel even better. With a curious look, she licked the tip of the mushroom head. She hummed, it didn't taste bad at all, a bit salty but that was it. So Mimosa smiled and leaned again, tacking the full head in her mouth.

Asta moaned once again. Her soft lips and wet mouth, along with the curious glint of her eyes made him twitch in bliss. This was without any doubt the best he had ever felt. He felt the anxiety melt away from his body. But, as first times went, he was already reaching his climax. It came so fast he couldn't warn Mimosa of it.

Mimosa felt him twitch and his seed fill her mouth. She swallowed it, it also tasted salty but strangely good.

Asta panted heavily. "I am very sorry, Mimosa... It felt so good, and then you... I am sorry". He was shocked when she giggled,

"It doesn't matter. But, the next time, please, tell me Asta". The implications of what she just said wasn't lost to Asta. She said next time, without an if, so she wanted to do it again. It filled him with anticipation and want.

Mimosa had achieved what she wanted to do when she knocked on his door, except the last thing. So, with new confidence she leaned and pecked Asta's cheek, almost touching his lips. She felt herself redden.

"I hope I relieved you of your worries a bit, Asta. Good luck tomorrow in the selection!", with that, the Vermillion stood up and walked to the door. She was cut by Asta,

"Yeah, Mimosa! We are going to kick ass tomorrow! You will see!", his enthusiasm made her giggle again.

The next morning, when the Magic Emperor told they were in the same team, they looked to the each others eyes and blushed, keeping to themselves the events that transpired the previous night, Yuno and Noelle questioning why the sudden shyness of the pair.
