Beams of the glistening sun shone across the youngest Silvas face making her squint as she opened her eyes, she rolled over onto her back to avoid the rays of light before promptly looking at the ceiling and sitting up, making her feet touch her soft wool carpet which was still very cold due to the lack of heating in the old castle-esque base, but luckily for her the comfy texture of her flooring compensated for that.
"Aaaahhhhh" Noelle yawned as she stretched her arms out as far as she could before kicking her legs up to jump onto her feet, Noelle balanced herself before taking a few steps forward so she was in front of her full length mirror with gold plating surrounding it. Money wasn't a problem for Noelle being in a family like the Silvas so things like this and the carpet would come easy, but something that definitely didn't come easy with her family was love and relationships... especially love for the lower classed commoners...
"I can't believe that I fell for that idiot Asta but... I wish I could actually say something to him... sincerely, without having my family or any of the other damn royals judge and shame us... heh, like that'll happen " Noelle said to herself with annoyance plastered on her face before starting to put her hair into the usual pig tails she has, BANG, a loud knock on her door jolted her forward before she answered,
"Yes?" Noelle asked while starting to put on her usual royal clothing and slipping into her black bulls robe, assuming that, whoever it was, wanted her down for something
"Oi, it's Magna, are you up ?" Magna answered with a question, "the only reason Magna would come to my room would be to play a prank or that he was chose for the morning rounds to get everyone for breakfast" Noelle thought to herself
"Yeah, just about why?" Noelle replied while slipping into her small shoes and looking back in the mirror again
"Well get downstairs, breakfast is nearly ready!" Magna replied once again before quickly walking away from her door and further down the corridor, "I knew it!" Noelle thought to herself once again
Noelle then walked up to her door before unlocking it and then slightly turning the door knob before stopping halfway, "Is that everything?" Noelle questioned herself while feeling her pouch to notice her grimoire wasn't there, she quickly walked back to her bed and picked it up off the nightstand that she had left it on,
"Phew!, imagine someone attacked and I didn't even have my grimoire heh... I'm such an idiot... " Noelle laughed at herself, trying to hide her frustration with herself before then opening the door and leaving the room to go downstairs
/
Noelle stared down the empty corridor as she exited her room, only to have the emptiness stare right back, "I should hurry downstairs, this base is always creepy as hell when no one's around!" She thought to herself before hurrying to the other end of the hallway and down the stairs towards the main hall of the base
CRASH
As Noelle entered the main hall she was greeted with Magna throwing his fireballs around the room as Luck taunted him for being a bad shot
"Hahahahahahaha- want me to teach you how to properly throw you idiot!" Luck shouted in hysterics knowing for a fact that it would get Magna pissed
"Shut the hell up you bastard!, I'll kick your ass!" Magna responded now riled up and ready to fight his close comrade for real until,
"Sit down!, Breakfast is ready La!" Charmy exclaimed before moving bowls of food to each of their seats, making all of the squad present move to their seats quickly, clearly showing that they were starving already
"Good morning Everyone!" Noelle said calmly as she moved over towards the table and took her seat, her seat being coincidentally opposite Asta, the man she must hide her feelings from no matter how much she may not want to
she received many 'good mornings' back before she saw Asta enter the room and take his seat and almost immediately begin digging into his meal
"Shangk Yhou Charmy shenpai!" Asta shouted as he stuffed his food into his own mouth before putting his cutlery down onto the hard wood table and then standing up as if to say something
"Right well I'm off to do some training, I'll see you guys later!" Asta stated before walking out of the room, "As IF he needs to train anymore, he nearly more buff than Captain Yami!" the squad all collectively thought before Noelle stood up and followed Asta out of the room,
"I'm going to do some training as well, even us royals need to practice every once in a while!" Noelle stated in a superior tone before flicking one of her pigtails back over her shoulder and then leaving the room, "Even though I only need to hide it with Asta, doing this scumbag act to all of them is the only way it would ever even be believable to those royal dicks!" Noelle thought to herself with hatred coursing through her veins, every time she put on this act, it hurt her not being able to show her true self to any of her beloved friends, the thought that all of the people she was closest to may hate her hurt her deeply as well... but Noelle knew that she had to keep her feelings inside like usual.
/
"Hey!, Asta wait up!" Noelle shouted as she left the base and started fast walking towards him
"Hi Noelle, What's up?" Asta responded as he stopped in his tracks and turned towards the girl running at him, "Noelle actually looks really hot today... Asta!, now's not the time, not that she would even like you anyway." Asta thought to himself as he admired the royals beauty
"Just wondering that, maybe we could train together? Since I'm a royal it would help you out too!" Noelle stated keeping up her facade by adding her usual royal comment on the end of her question
"Of course!, then I get to see your Awesome Valkyrie amour in action!" Asta replied as ecstatic as ever to be training with his comrade and close friend before then taking the demon slayer sword out of his grimoire and gripping it tightly in his hands
"Well then, You ready?!" Noelle shouted trying her best not to blush at the compliment she just got and then putting on her Valkyrie amour and getting in a somewhat battle stance ready to fight
"Hell Yeah!" Asta exclaimed as he also got him self into a position ready to fight while simultaneously activating his demon form
The two then charged at each other with a look of both Joy and Focus engrained into their faces before Noelle jabbed her water spear forward only for it to miss as Asta side stepped out of the way before then swinging his large sword down towards Noelle only for that attack to also miss as Noelle dashed behind Asta elegantly
FSSHHH!
Noelle let out a Sea Dragons Roar towards Asta's back for it to hit him slightly before he pulled his smaller demon dweller sword to swipe the incredible attack spell away while skidding backwards a large amount due to the sheer force of Noelle's attack, the grass that they were fighting was completely ruined to that, even though they were only fighting for a max of two or three minutes, it looked like a full scale war had been waged upon the land
"hahh... hahh, you're really tough!" Asta stated with a smile of excitement on his face while catching his breath from being hit with such a dangerous spell
"I could say the exact same thing!, Again?" Noelle replied wanting to keep training with the boy she likes and because she knows she can go all out with an opponent like Asta
"Let's do it!" Asta exclaimed before the two charged at each other once again, this time Asta came in with both of his swords, to which Noelle easily avoided the first but just skimmed the second sword due to the quick increase of speed Asta outputted in his right arm which held the demon dweller sword, Noelle and Asta went at it for a good few hours before both were so worn out they could only just stand and their forms had also disappeared from their severe use of mana and stamina in that short match
"Wanna... go get... a drink?" Asta suggested while still recovering from their intense training session and making his way over to Noelle to help each other walk back to the base by grabbing her arm and putting it over his shoulder
"Sure, Let's, cause I'm really tired!" Noelle stated while smiling in her head cause of what his suggestion sounded like, her reply slightly shocked Asta as he was surprised she wasn't having a go at him for 'touching royalty'
Asta also realized what his suggestion sounded like and started to panic in his thoughts while going red in real life, which was luckily masked by him sweating and being exhausted, "That sounded like-, wait, wait did she think I meant it that way?, No, No, No Noelle wouldn't dare even consider it like that- Just calm down Asta it didn't mean you were asking her out, you were just offering her a drink...calm down"
/
The two then arrived back at the base and opened the large front door with nearly all that remained of their strength while slowly dragging themselves inwards to the main room where all the rest of the black bulls were chilling out
"You two look like zombies and shit mixed together, what the hell were you doing out there!?" Asked a vulgar Zora who was lying down across one of the many tables that were there, not knowing why they were out there as he only recently got up
"Well if you'd actually get up on time, you would know we were training, Peasant" Noelle stated harshly while sitting herself down as Asta went to get them both a glass of water
"Don't get funny with me royal bitch, I'll kick your ass noble or not!" Zora replied as he stood up and took out his grimoire, eager to fight her due to his immense hatred of the higher ups of the country
"Do you want to bet on it?" Noelle said while also taking out her grimoire just in case he was to attack her despite most of her magic being already used up
"Zora knock it off, Noelle's part of our squad so don't be a dick!" Asta stated defending the girl as he gave the glass of water to Noelle
Asta and Zora stared at each other with intent to fight each other while the entire room went silent with all of the other squad members looking on at the charade in either amusement or worry
"Now, Now let's not get ahead of ourselves shall we?" Vanessa interrupted snapping both of the lads out of their intense stare
"Tch!, I'm going out, And don't ask me when I'll be back!" Zora sulked like a moody teenager before walking out of the door to the base and slamming it behind him
"Sorry, you're right Vanessa, I got ahead of myself!" Asta said apologetically as his angered face soon turned to his usual smiling one while he scratched the back of his head, but meanwhile Noelle was blushing at the fact that Asta stood up for her then, reminding her of the time when they were younger and her family had made fun of her and Asta had shut them all up, "if only I could speak the truth..." Noelle thought as she then rested her head onto her hand while pouting in frustration
"I'm sure Noelle will be very happy that YOU stood up for her!~" Vanessa leaned over and whispered into Asta's ear, trying to give him a hint, to which Asta only replied with a simple "Eh?" showing of his denseness in it's full glory
"God you two are hopeless!" Vanessa exclaimed in frustration before picking a bottle of wine up and going back to laying on the couch, "Come join me you two!" Vanessa added with a shout after laying down to which the two decided that they shouldn't considering they were completely worn out, drenched in sweat and covered in muck
"Actually, it's probably best if we get a bath instead" Asta replied as he and Noelle started to walk out of the room towards the bath before being interrupted by Vanessa teasingly saying
"Together?" making both of them go bright red in embarrassment and start flailing and stuttering to try and say otherwise to which Vanessa, Finral and many others simply giggled at
"Stop, I'm joking I know what you meant haha" Vanessa stopped them both from going any further while still laughing at their embarrassment, to which the two simply sighed at her annoyance and walked away out of the room
/
"Hey Noelle, that training was really fun, let's do it again sometime, yeah?" Asta questioned as they made there way down the corridor towards the baths in hopes to not only just to train more, not that he needed to, but to spend more time with Noelle
"Yeah you're right it was fun and... I want to do it again too!" Noelle stated in her normal calm voice, trying to ignore her earlier worries for once as she thought to herself "Maybe I could tell him... No I can't he's so dense he'd end up telling everyone or blurting it out at the worst time, I'll just keep it in for now..."
"Right well, I'm going in the bath now so I'll talk to you later or tomorrow, See ya Noelle!" Asta exclaimed as he walked into the men's bathing room closed the solid wood door behind him
"Yeah, See you later..." Noelle said quietly as he closed the door before she then made her way into the lady's bath room and started getting undressed
After taking off her clothes, Noelle stepped down into the very hot bath giving her a jolt from the warmth, she stayed still for a minute as to get used to the heat before stepping further in, Noelle then walked further into the large body of water before resting up against one of the corner walls of the bath
"Aaaahhhhhh" Noelle let out a large sigh of relaxation as she laid her back against the wall and slid down it leaving only her head still sticking out of the water, "I wonder what Asta's doing in the other room..." Noelle thought to herself before
"Asta..." She whispered as she lowered her hand down down her body until she reached her vagina while she moved her other hand onto her left breast, "Should i really be doing this...? oh well fuck it!" Noelle thought to herself before she started massaging the parts of her body which her hands had reached, she started to softly moan before all of a sudden
"Noelle, You in here!?" Vanessa shouted as she opened the door, "Goddamn it, what now of all times!?" Noelle thought in frustration as she moved her hands away from her private parts
"y-Yeah, what's up?" Noelle replied, her voice slightly cracking from nearly being caught doing such a thing
"Hate to be the bearer of bad news but, well your brothers and sister are her-" Vanessa started to reply anxious of Noelle's reaction before being cut off by
"WHY THE FUCK ARE THEY HERE!?" Noelle screamed before jumping out of the bath and starting to dry herself off as quickly as she could before getting changed into some of her more casual clothes, once she was ready, Noelle stormed out of the bathroom and towards the base's main room, "Oh boy, this'll be a sight to see alright, not that I'm happy they're here either!" Vanessa thought to herself before following Noelle through to the main room
/
"Why the FUCK are you all here!?" Noelle questioned angrily as she burst through the door with a anxious, to see what happens, Vanessa right behind her
"Mind your tone BRAT!, We're here to talk to Captain Yami, so there is no need for Scum like you or the other peasants that live here to get involved, and I'm talking to all of you when I say this, RIGHT? YOU RATS?!" Solid shouted with disgust while wiping his uniform and staring at Noelle with eyes of pure hate to which all of the black bulls simply just looked away or ignored his remarks knowing getting into an argument with a royal was a bad idea and definitely wouldn't end well, even if Yami was on their side
"insult me all you want, i couldn't care less, BUT DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE INSULT MY FRIENDS YOU PIECE OF SHIT!" Noelle screamed with Hatred rushing through her veins, making Solid and Nebra take a step back from never seeing their younger sister so angry before, also shocking all of the black bulls that were in the room from Noelle sticking up for them so hostilely
"It'd be wise to shut up Noelle, or We'll shut you up!" Nebra and Solid stated while taking out their grimoires in hopes to fight their little sister before being interrupted by
"You're not shutting anyone up Assholes!" Asta shouted as he entered through the same door that Noelle and Vanessa entered through earlier and then pulled out his grimoire ready to defend his close friends to which Noelle blushed from having Asta stick up for her and the others
"I think that's quite enough now" Nozel stated as he moved in-between Asta and Noelle and his two other siblings to which all of those with their grimoires out put them away, knowing it would be very stupid to try and argue with a squad Captain
"What's going on and why are you here weird hair?" Yami asked as he entered the room from another entrance
"Nothing's going on, we were just here to get you to sign some papers, then we'll be going" Nozel stated bluntly wanting to get this over with
"Why the rush home, need to get some slaves to braid your hair again?" Yami remarked with a huge grin on his face knowing he'd anger the silver eagles Captain to which he responded with
"Just sign the papers Yami!" Nozel stated, growing ever impatient and angry
"Ok, Ok I will... slave braid," Yami replied signing the paper, egging Nozel on even more before handing the papers back over to him
"Yami, I swear I will kill you" Nozel replied while making his way out of the front door, meanwhile Noelle was giving death stares to Solid and Nebra as they also walked out of the door alongside their Captain before the door slammed behind them
/
"Thank fuck they're gone!" Noelle exclaimed while taking seat at the built in bar that was in the base
"Amen to that!" Vanessa also exclaimed before taking the seat next to Noelle at the bar and pouring them both a drink with the wine that was already on the bar
"Well I'm going to bed, I'll see you guys tomorrow!" Asta stated giving a wave to all of the black bulls
"Good Night Asta!" Noelle shouted as he left the room before swiveling around on her seat to face the bar. After Asta went to bed many others soon followed until the only ones left downstairs were Noelle and Vanessa, who had both been drinking together for a little while now, making Noelle quite a bit drunk
"No offense Noelle, but your Brother and Sister are massive dickheads, then again most of the royals are aren't they?" Vanessa questioned before taking another drink, and it barely affecting her due to her being such a heavy weight
"Yeah..." Noelle quietly replied while also taking another drink before a tear ran down her face
"Noelle, Are you okay?, What's up?" Vanessa questioned worryingly before Noelle slowly turned her face towards Vanessa
"You... you all hate me don't yOu ?" Noelle sobbingly questioned with tears streaming down her face as her voice cracked
"No, Not at all, none of us hate you... where did that thought come from?" Vanessa asked confused while putting her arm around Noelle's shoulders
"It- It's just t-that i act like a-an asshole to y-you all but... i d-don't mean it, I love you all!, but i have to do it... c-cause if the royal scum in the government f-found out that i liked a c-commoner then who knows what they would d-do... Ha I'm s-sorry i shouldn't be crying like this... I'm pathetic..." Noelle apologetically sobbed before Vanessa pulled her closer in to hug her
"Hey, you are NOT pathetic at all! and we all know you don't mean it when you act like that, and I know you like Asta, but why listen to what some royal asshole says, make your own choice, and if they really have a problem with it, then they'd have to go through all of us black bulls!" Vanessa said smiling reassuring Noelle as she wiped away the tears from her face
"Thanks Vanessa, You're right, who cares about them I'll make my own choice!... wait you know I like Asta?!, How?!" Noelle exclaimed now more sure of herself, before going bright red from realizing what else Vanessa had said
"Hahahaha, Well It's kind of obvious to us girls but the boys well, They're just too dense too realize!" Vanessa stated humorously while also smiling from seeing Noelle more confident with the whole royal thing, A silence pierced the two for a while as they drank a little more before
"So... uh since you know I really like Asta, can you like, you know, give me some help...maybe?" Noelle asked while going bright red once again
"Of course, not that I know about relationships, but I do know flirting if that's what you mean?" Vanessa asked ready to help the younger girl
"Y-Yeah I do, Thank you Vanessa!" Noelle shouted, thankful for Vanessa's help
"Well let's go up to my room, so we can sober up a bit and talk even more privately" Vanessa stated as she quickly went and grabbed her and Noelle a glass of water each and then walked towards the door leading to the staircase with Noelle following close behind her
/
Vanessa locked the door behind them as they entered her room before then sitting onto the bed and quickly downing the glasses of water to sober up as quick as possible
"Right then!, Where... to... start...?" Vanessa questioned herself as she rested her head against her hand in a thinking pose before turning to look at Noelle
"Actually, I know, How about this..." Vanessa stated as she went on to have a long discussion for about two hours about what Noelle should try and how Vanessa could try to help her out herself before then,
"Thank you so much Vanessa, But what should we do now?... Cause I'm not tired, like AT all" Noelle stated thankful for Vanessa helping her out
"Don't sweat it!, And I have an idea..." Vanessa answered with a mischievous smirk on her face. Vanessa then grabbed Noelle's arm and started pulling her out of her room after quickly unlocking the door and then running down the corridor and down the stairs like they were school girls skipping class and being chased by a teacher, once they got downstairs Vanessa immediately started pouring both of them huge unproportioned glasses of wine before turning to Noelle with a huge gleam on her face
"Let's Get Fucked UP!" Vanessa exclaimed as she started drinking more, Noelle sighed at Vanessa before her face then turned into a smirk as she started drinking aswell
"Let's Do It!" Noelle shouted as the two of them then started drinking heavily and slowly became louder and louder as time went on until finally silence breached the room with Noelle and Vanessa both passing out in the early morning...
/
The next morning, Asta woke up earlier than usual, not that he didn't wake up early enough anyway, and made his way downstairs in just his pajama pants to get a early drink and then a shower before anyone else woke up, but as Asta entered the downstairs room he was greeted with a sight that he couldn't imagine ever seeing
Vanessa and Noelle were both lying on top of one another on the large couch in only their panty's and bra's, both of them in very suggestive positions with Noelle's legs over the couch headboard and her body lying over Vanessa's stomach and Vanessa who had her legs over the side of the piece of furniture with her ass parked against the arm rest. As oblivious as Asta is, this still gave him a huge nosebleed, sure, he was used to seeing Vanessa in similar states but he had never seen Noelle in such a position nor had he ever seen her sleeping so contently and cutely, to which he thought to himself "I wish I could hug her and kiss her and- Oh Come on Asta, you know a royal would never even think of dating you!"
"Ahem!" Asta turned to look away from them with a slight blush from seeing such a sight and signaled over as to wake them but to no avail, "AHEM!" Asta shouted a lot louder this time, waking both of them from their slumber giving them both a shock from the loud noise
"ugh...my head... , Yeah what?" Noelle asked slowly as she sat up with a ever growing headache giving her a lot of pain, and due to the headache she had lost all concentration of who she was talking to and what she was wearing, Noelle then climbed over the back of the couch and stood up, meanwhile Vanessa had woken up at the same time but, luckily for her, she had no such headache so took note of who she was talking to very quickly
"Oh Hey Asta!" Vanessa exclaimed to which Noelle looked at her in confusion, "What do you mean Asta's not her- , Eeeekkk!" Noelle began to deny before looking to her side to see Asta standing right there and then ducking down behind the couch as quick as she could to hide from him with embarrassment flowing through her body, her recollection of last nights discussion with Vanessa then came back to her like a flash making her even more embarrassed than she already was, if that was even possible
"One second Asta!" Vanessa stated before jumping over the couch and ducking down to Noelle's level as to reassure her, "Hey, remember what I said, you'll be fine, and I'm pretty sure that Asta would be flustered and blushing like mad to see you in such an outfit, or lack there of" Vanessa calmed her down before Noelle quickly replied. "But what about the roy-" Noelle began to state with all her anxiety's from the royals coming back again before Vanessa interjected quickly, "Oi!, We talked about this last night they aren't going to do fuck all ok!?, Just go for it!" Vanessa reassured her once again, "Yeah you're right, Thank you again!" Noelle thanked before the two stood up together
"What were you two whispering about?, and can I turn around now?" Asta asked curiously wanting to turn around to face them, but inside secretly wanting to see Noelle like that again
"Oh nothing, just girl talk... and yeah you can turn around-" Vanessa stated while smirking at Noelle
"Oh good, I'm going to go in the show- uh I, sorry I though you both would be dressed" Asta began to state before his face went bright red from realizing that both of them were still just in their underwear, this then making Asta have yet another nose bleed, but he did not turn away this time and instead finished what he was going to say
"Well um, I'm going in the shower now but I think we have some missions to do today later with Finral and either Zora or Charmy, so uh..." Asta explained rushing his words before stopping mid way through and staring at Noelle like a dog staring at a ball, "Uhmm... Asta? you ok?" Noelle asked as she blushed from the clear compliment of having Asta stare right at her
"huh? , oh yeah- wait I wasn't!- sorry, I'll get a shower and then we can do that mission whenever we're ready ok?, See you two bye!" Asta finished his sentence panicking before rushing out the door and then rushing down the corridor in embarrassment and stopping just outside of the shower rooms, which was very unlike Asta completely, "What the hell was I doing?!, I looked like a right perv, One: now Vanessa will probably find me weird or at least tease me about it, and Two: Noelle probably hates me even more than she already did which, to be honest, I don't even think is possible, Oh God damn It!, I'm a fucking Idiot!" Asta though to himself with humility and self hatred coursing through him
Back at Vanessa and Noelle, the two girls were laughing there heads off at Asta's embarrassment and Noelle was also blushing as well from the very obvious compliment he just gave her even if he didn't even realize it himself, "See?, There was nothing to be embarrassed about!" Vanessa stated with cockiness from being right about filling her head, "Yeah, you're right... Anyway let's go get washed as well, we fucking reek of alcohol!" Noelle stated as she made her way to the door to the girls showers after picking up her clothes and Vanessa did just the same not far behind her.
