Lil letter from Mihawk

[M/N][L/N] P.O.V

"I'm fine Marco, uh they didn't hurt me. It's just uh some paint"

"Sure? Being smeared in red paint is a bit worrying, (M/N)-yoi. Good job on the less filler words though, I'm glad you're comfortable around me."

Keeping quiet, I let Marco worriedly fret over me before I nervously told him I would just go shower. He nodded and turned to Ace and Thatch to lecture them. I had to go to Izo's room to borrow his shower after I grabbed my clothes. The shower was really quick and Izo was perfectly fine with it so that's what I did. My bedroom was pretty trashed right now with paint so I guess I could stay with Marco till it was better. Once, I got out of the shower and put on some clothes before sitting in the carpeted floor with the bag Killer had given me. Slowly, I started pulling out the items and rearranging them into different categories. Izo watched curiously as he did his makeup.

"What's that?" Izo poked

"A bunch of items uh someone gave uhm to me" I mumbled

"A suitor?" Izo suggested

"S-Suitor? No uh no way" I rejected the idea, my face getting heated

"Doesn't seem that way if they got you jewellery too" Izo pointed out.

Blushing brightly, I shrugged. I'm sure it wasn't like that. We only met recently and he had been really hostile the time before that. I tried explaining it to Izo and he started dreaming about the possibility of me getting together with killer. He described it as a tragic love story between two factions while I sweat dropped. Sighing, I tried explaining it most likely wasn't like that but Izo was now lost in the dating aesthetic of a cinnamon roll with a gothic angel. I think Killer was an angel but I wasn't sure.

"Anyways, who's room are you staying in?" Izo asked

"Uhm Marcos I think... his isn't that messy uh unlike Ace's uh" I trailed off

"Told you Ace was trash, one look at his room can tell you that" Izo scoffed

"N-No, he's fine uh I mean uh" I tried explaining

"You need not justify reasons for such trash" Izo stated.

Giving up, I let Izo rant about everyone while he applied make up to my face. He did remove it afterwards so I went to see Marco and ask about staying in his room. He was agreed without a second thought and since it was already late, I just climbed into his bed. Exhausted, I fell asleep quickly while Marco did paperwork from him desk. It felt like a good while later when I felt the bed dip quite a lot under Marco's weight. He went under the covers and hugged me from behind while I tiredly dozed back off.

When I woke back up, I found Ace and Thatch next to me. I wondered if Marco let them in. I saw a letter addressed to me at Marco's bedside table so I got up to read it. It was an invitation that had a sticky note on it. The sticky note was from Marco about how he was asked to deliver this letter to me from someone. Tiredly, I sat up properly and stretched my arms before reading it.

"A letter from...Mihawk?? Uhh?" I mumbled.

"Hm, what's that babe?" Thatch asked in his deep morning voice as he woke up.

"B-Babe?!" I said shocked

"Cmon babe, don't be shy over a nickname, we already sleep together a lot-(M/N)?! Did you just pass out again"

I did pass out.

A/N: Really short but I wanted to update. Thatch was trying to tease (M/N) but it backfired. Sorry I don't update often, technically I've been updating almost every single day since 2020 but it's hard to tell when it's spread across many different stories. Thank you though for sticking with me and have a lovely 2021. Stay safe
