I had started making an AOT story before, years prior and couldn't follow up because a lack of inspiration, talent, and creativity. So in order to rectify that because I have gotten some inspiration from a new anime I just finished watching and waiting for more of, I decided to create one-shots for it. Since you clicked then you already know it's black clover. The pairing is mainly Asta/Nero/Secre or Asta x Secre/Nero. Quite frankly I saw great potential in these characters and have not found a single story or even one shot with this pairing. This is going to be a collection of one shot pairings so be sure to review what pairing you'd like to see next. As for those who came from my Attack on Titan: Bonds story, I am sorry that the story went from good to just smut and I will learn from that to find a balance. Well that's enough of that, hope you enjoy.

Sometime after the war with the elves

"Wow! Magna-sempai you're so amazing!" Asta exclaimed as Magna showed Asta his new spell.

"Yeah, I'll catch up to you and Luck in no time!" Magna yelled with a fiery aura around him with Asta the same way while the rest of the Black Bulls were doing the usual.

Yami was on the toilet in the middle of a war, Grey was in some hole having a panic attack saying something about being embarrassed, Vanessa was drunk, Gauche was…being Gauche, and Charmy was eating mountains of food.

Unfortunately for Asta, he had Noelle being a tsundere and confusing him while Nero was sitting on his head.

"*yawn* I'm getting tired, I'm going to bed guys, see ya tomorrow!" Asta said as he waved everyone goodnight.

I'm glad I made it to where I am now, everyone seems to be happy. Even Nero I think…now that I think about it, I never really talked with her except with silly interaction we have now and then. Asta had thought to himself.

"Man am I glad Henry decided to keep some bedrooms in the base in case we just want some peace and quiet, Nero." Asta said relieved with a hand behind his head. After that being said Nero had flown down and transferred into her human form.

"It's never quiet in the morning because you're always snoring too loud," Nero deadpanned and playfully pinched Asta's cheek.

"Ah-gah-ouch-ouch-" Asta was comically freaking out while Nero giggled with a smile.

Nero let go of him much to Asta's relief as they entered the room.

Asta looked around the room and seen that it was not very different than before. The window was right across the opposite of the door with a desk with a chair and lamp to the right of the window and a single bed to the left. The dresser was right next to the door and had some of Asta's belongings with the window holding Nero's nest.

"Nero, I wanted to talk to you." Asta stated as he sat down on the bed.

"Oh, really?" Nero was surprised by this, and at the very least can say she didn't expect him to say that, "What would you like to discuss? I know not a lot about the devils and their powers or much of what you'd probably be interested in…" Nero said the last part quieter and pouted cutely as she sat in the chair at the desk and turned it to face Asta.

"I actually wanted to know who Secre Swallowtail is," Asta said as the moonlight shone in on them to illuminate the room with Nero's eyes glistening from tears starting to form "Trust me that I see right through you, you try to hide your pain of losing Lemiel and think it will go away."

"H-How..." Nero was at a loss for words, this boy had seen right through her act. She didn't know it but tears were falling from her eyes when she felt a hand on her should and she looked up. When she looked up she saw a comforting smile, she saw Lemiel's nature in Asta.

Asta then closed in for a hug, then said the words that broke her last defense…

"You're not alone anymore… Secre. You were there since I got my Grimore, and helped me through my journey even when I didn't know it. You were alone for 500 years, I'll seize the chance to ensure it won't be 501!" Asta said the last part with resolve, but not explosive since after all the two were still in the middle of a hug. Nero cried loudly and shamelessly as Asta comforted her while he cooed her and picked her up bridal style.

Nero just snuggled into Asta's chest and started to get comfortable until Asta slowly put her on the bed and covered her up.

"But it's your bed…" Nero started to say but was interrupted by Asta.

"That may be so but you probably haven't slept in a bed in over 500 years!" Asta exclaimed comically much to Nero's amusement "I can sleep on the floor from now on."

Nero stared at Asta thoughtfully before pinching his cheeking with a blush of her own and tears stained on her face "Asta-kun, w-w-why don't we both sleep in the bed? O-Or are you afraid?" Nero teased though her embarrassment.

Asta smiled kindly "Not sure why I didn't think of that in the first place, that's usually how me and my family used to sleep all the time back at home…" Asta said the last part more quietly "But, we're finishing me getting to know you better some other time!"

Nero nodded with a gentle smile and patted the spot next to her. Asta then got into the bed and found himself facing the window and looked off in the night sky as he heard Nero fall with soft snoring and with himself eventually succumbing to slumber.

To Be continued?

Thank you for reading this far, if you would like more one shots with this pairing then please leave a review or with any general feedback. I'm still unsure if people enjoy stories like this, so if you would like it to be continued then say so and I'll work on it for sure. My problem with when I was writing AOT fanfiction was that it felt more limited and stuck myself in a hole on that one, I feel like I won't for this story.
