Summer Days (AcexReader)

"Let's go on the roller coaster. Oooo look corn dogs let's get some. Look at the drop of doom, it's so high! Let's go come on!" Luffy pointed at everything that caught his eye as soon as he stepped out of the car.

"Hold it. We have to buy the tickets first yoi." Marco grabbed the back of his energetic brother's shirt to stop him from running off.

A small pout made it's way to Luffy's face at the thought of not going on the rides right away.

"Relax. The rides aren't going anywhere, we have the whole day to ride each one of them as many times as we want." Sabo reassured his little brother. Standing next to him was Koala, the all too adorable couple holding hands.

Sabo and Koala were a great match for one another. Sabo was already a kind and sweet guy that treated Koala with the utmost respect. And Koala was adorable and bubbly. The two complimented each other well. Something you were jealous of.

Why am I jealous?

I don't like relationships anyways.

That's a lie.

No it's not.

Is it?

You shook your head and walked beside Ace as you guys got in the short line up to pay for the tickets to get in. You gently slid your hand into his.

A bright smile decorated Ace's face as he held onto your hand tighter. This action didn't go unnoticed by his brothers.

As much as they wanted to tease him about it, they thought it would ruin the moment. Something they didn't want as they thought it would cause you two to progress backwards instead of forward into your blooming relationship. If they could call it that.

Honestly Ace's brothers didn't know what to think of your's and Ace's relationship. They wanted you guys to work out, but at the same time the fact that you were a flirt worried them. They didn't want Ace to get hurt.

"C'mon let's go!" Luffy hollered, he ran off as soon as Thatch finished paying for the tickets.

"Luffy wait for us." Ace walked a little faster to catch up with his little brother. The freckled male was just as excited as him to be at the amusement park. Especially since he gets to spend the day with you.

You held onto Ace's hand as you followed along side him. You said a few 'sorryd' and 'excuse me's' to people as you pushed through the crowd with Ace to catch up to Luffy.

The young boy was at the front of the line to the roller coaster with a giddy smile on his face. Your smile almost vanished when he grabbed onto Ace's free arm, indicating he wanted to ride with his brother.

"You can ride with me." Thatch came up behind you guys and grabbed onto Luffy's shirt so he wouldn't run off again. The older male shot you and Ace a subtle wink as he followed Luffy to the front of the roller coaster.

You just smiled back in appreciation. Let's face it you couldn't actually be mad at Luffy if he wanted to ride with Ace, but you did want the freckled cutie to yourself.

You and Ace got into the second cart, right behind Luffy and Thatch. Sabo and Koala were behind you two, and Marco was sat next to some guy that looked like he was gonna barf before the ride even started.

The rides operator came by and made sure everyone was buckled into their seats properly. The rules were explained and then the ride was started.

"I hate this part." You referring to how the carts were slowly pulled to the top of the track.

"It's not that bad. Here you can hold my hand." Ace held his hand out to you which you gladly excepted. "Isn't the worst part of the ride all the loops and being upside down?"

"No. Slowly being pulled up and watching as the ground gets further away is the worst part." You looked over the edge of cart, shuttering at the sight of the people below getting smaller and smaller.

"Then just look at me." Ace's voice was gentle as he gently tilted your head towards himself.

A pale blush came to your cheeks as you stared into Ace's warm brown eyes. Your own (e/c) eyes looked away for a second before looking back, just from the gaze he was giving you, you could tell how much he loved you. And it made it hard for you to look at him. It made you feel conflicted.

Someone like me has no right loving him back.

These thoughts were ripped out of your head as the carts finally reached the top and went whipping down the track.

A loud squeal left your mouth, while Ace let out a loud laugh. You could hear Luffy laughing loudly in front of you as well. After the intial shock of the drop you started to let out little giggles as the coaster went through some loops.

"Holy shit yoi!"

You couldn't see it but Marco had just been barfed on by his companion for the ride.

~Le Time Skip~

"The workers gave you a change of clothes why can't you just stay?" Thatch was trying to convince a grumpy Marco to stay at the amusement park with you guys.

"Because I feel gross yoi. You would too if you were the one that got puke on you." Marco growled at his older brother, you could sympathize with the blond. You would want to take a shower after a stranger puked on you.

"Well we only took one car here. So you can either take a taxi home or stay here with us." Thatch huffed, he wasn't about to cut his day short just because his brother got puke on him.

What a caring older brother.

Marco grumbled something under his breath before pulling out his phone. Seems he was going to call a taxi to take him home.

"I'm gonna go to the bathroom quickly." You told Ace, might as well while you guys were taking a short break.

"I'll join you." Koala said as she followed you. It would seem it was time for some girl talk. You two were lucky there wasn't a line up for the women's washroom.

"So I saw you and Ace." Koala smirked as she was washing her hands. You were washing your hands at the sink next to hers.

"Saw us what?" You grabbed some paper towel to dry your hands. Then returned to the mirror to put on some lip gloss.

"Don't play dumb with me. I saw the way the two of you were looking at each other. You were totally having a moment!" Koala chimed, she finished drying her hands and waited for you to finish fixing up your makeup. "I know Ace likes you. But the question is do you like him?"

"Um, yeah I like Ace he's a nice friend." You put you lip gloss back in your bag and turned to face a smirking Koala.

"You sure a nice friend." Koala teased but she left it at that and you two left the bathroom to join back up with the guys.

Marco was gone when you two got back, Thatch was holding on to a giddy Luffy, stopping him from running off to on more rides without you guys.

Sabo wrapped his arm around Koala's waist as soon as she was close enough, she whispered something into Sabo's ear which caused the males face to light up.

She better not be saying what I think she's saying.

"Ready to have some more fun?" Ace came beside you and lazily rested his arm on your shoulder.
