"Y/n. Would you like to go to to the coffee shop in town with me when you're better?" Yuno asked

"Like a date?"

"If you'd like to call it that."

"I'd love to Yuno!"

"It's a date then."

Y/n had recovered quickly during her stay at the infirmary after the incident. She had at least 30 people visit her each day. The most frequent visitors were Julius and Nozel (for obvious reasons), Yuno and Leopold

Y/n was surprised to see Leo visiting her almost every day, but since he had been spending a lot of time visiting Fuegoleon, he decided to spend some time with Y/n too since the two injured magic knights were only a few doors away from each other

The two young mages never got bored of each other's company. In fact, Leopold had a new story to tell every day from his adventures with the Crimson Lion Kings and their new captain, Mereoleona Vermillion, the older sister to Fuegoleon and Leopold

Y/n couldn't imagine being in a squad with Mereoleona as a captain. Not that the h/c haired girl was scared of the oldest Vermillion sibling but she didn't like the idea of her being a captain

When Y/n was released from the infirmary, she immediately ran to Fuegoleon's room to visit him. She pushed open the door and ran straight to his side. The stump of his arm had been bandaged up and he was sleeping peacefully

"I can't believe they did this to you," Y/n spoke softly. "And why you of all people? One of the nicer magic knight captains."

Soon the door swung open and in walked Mereoleona. "Oh hello Y/n. Didn't expect to see you here."

Y/n stood up and faced the current captain of the Crimson Lion Kings. "Hello Captain Mereoleona. You're looking well."

"Hah. Please Y/n, no need to call me Captain," Mereoleona said, walking up to Fuegoleon's side

Y/n was completely taken aback. Not only by what the female Vermillion said, but her tone of voice while saying those words

"But ma'am. You are a captain, so I must address you with the proper title," Y/n stammered

"Ah yes. I am the captain of my foolish younger brother's squad now aren't I?" Mereoleona sighed, looking down at her younger brother

"I apologize for stepping out of line ma'am but  Captain Fuegoleon is not foolish. He is one of the nicest magic knight captains I have met. He judges others based on their strength and character rather than their social status," Y/n stated. "He defended Asta from Nozel and his siblings duing the Distinguished Service Ceremony Banquet by saying he was invited by the wizard king himself, therefore he is trusted by Julius.

Mereoleona watched as the young girl went on her little speech about the male sleeping beside them. One Y/n was finished, Mereoleona placed a hand on the younger girl's head

"You've got fire in your soul kid. Don't let anyone burn it out!" she said before taking her leave, but once she arrived at the door.....
