Figuring it Out [Whitebeard Pirates x Child? Reader]

12. Doctorine

-March 2cnd

Once Marco had treated most of the outside wounds he started checking for any internal damage. Finding several broken ribs and Some Bruised parts of his chest and Back... Just who the hell did he fight. Not to mention M/n also had a concussion, So nothing too much for some time. It'd take a minute for the concussion to fully settle in though. For now, Marco let M/n sleep. placing an Icepack on his ribs and some of the bruises.

M/n always seemed to get himself into some sort of trouble that involved getting himself hurt. He was a walking Hazard... Though had he not hid Luffy he doubted either of them would have returned at all. Lidia paced in the other room, running a hand through Luffy's hair, calming him down. Haruta walked downstairs, seeing what happened, having the whole situation explained to him. He took a glance at M/n, Frowning lightly. 

They were all worried for him, what was going to happen? Marco let M/n sleep in his hold, knowing the boy would probably wake if he set him down. Pop had made a few phone calls to some old friends, Specifically Dr. Kureha. The woman was an Amazing Doctor, but old as Shit at the ripe age of 131. Pops was confident in Marco's capabilities as a Doctor but still felt as if a more experienced person could help just a bit more. Luffy was starting to calm down, still processing everything that happened. Though the family wanted the full story and Luffy couldn't give it to them except the very beginning and what he had heard. Seeing as M/n had told him to keep his eyes closed and hid him from the attacker.

Thatch was in the kitchen, making some food for Luffy seeing as he probably hadn't eaten at all yet. Namur was in his room, still asleep unaware of what was going on. Ace was sitting on the couch next to Marco, watching M/n carefully, and Sabo was internally freaking out... not doing a good job at hiding it either.

Once Pops got off of his phone call he walked into the living room, gently taking M/n from Marco despite the protests. Pops then sat down in his chair, Like, His Chair. Had his own specific chair no one else was allowed to sit on. M/n stayed asleep, only moving a little. Pops took the blanket off the back of the chair, setting it on M/n, covering him up. Pops turned on the Tv, putting the History channel on.

(You can't tell me Pops wouldn't watch war documentaries, ~ Author Guy)

Keeping the volume on Low Pops waited for Kureha to arrive. M/n fast asleep in his arms, If M/n was awake the Family was sure he'd be fighting Pops right now, Luffy walked into the living room clutching Lidia's hand, his eyes still red and puffy from crying so much. Pops looked at Luffy, motioning for him to come closer, Luffy obliged. Pops picked Luffy up, Letting him fall asleep under the same blanket as M/n. Both boys looking utterly exhausted. Soon Ace walked over, silently standing there. Pops chuckled, gently moving Luffy over a bit, letting Ace lay next to him. Sabo soon joined on the Other Side of M/n, Haruta laying next to Ace, On top of the blanket. It was more of a quilt though.

Lidia smiled, taking a picture, Definitely not planning to get it printed and hung up in the house...

M/n was still asleep by the time Kureha had gotten there, giving her plenty of time to work without struggle... that was until M/n woke up mid-check-up and called her a hag. She didn't take that too well, almost hitting M/n over the head until she remembered he could have a possible concussion. She bit her tongue just this once. Now M/n sat all the way across the room glaring at everyone But Luffy. 

Pops sighed, rubbing the bridge of his forehead. 

"Lad. She isn't going to hurt you." Pops tried poorly to convince M/n.

"Hell no, I'm not letting that Old Hag touch me any more than you've already let her!" M/n argued back

"M/n she's here to help!" Luffy exclaimed, his friend Chopper next to him agreeing...while also hiding the wrong way behind Luffy.

"Fuck That! I don't need help!" M/n flipped them off, sticking his tongue out and pulling his eyelid down.

Kureha Gritted her teeth, biting her tongue. Though her expression faded, That move seemed familiar. shaking it off she stood up.

"Listen Here, Brat. Get your Ass over here so I can finish up and take my payment." She growled, M/n stood up,

"Been through worse. I can handle it." He shoved his hands in his pockets.

"M/n. Just let her do her thing, She's almost done." Sabo took his turn trying to convince him.

"You get 2 minutes..." M/n mumbled, letting Kureha do her thing, staying true to his word, He backed away after two minutes. Thankfully Kureha was done as he backed away. 

"Bedrest. Nothing too physical. His ribs are fractured, severe bruising on his back and stomach, Stay away from solids just in case. And Look out for symptoms of a Concussion, I don't know who the hell took a hit at him but whoever it was didn't punch him. They kicked him like a goddamn ball. Put some Ice on his Ribs and some Ibuprofen to Relieve the pain, Take deep breaths to Avoid Pneumonia, and Don't wrap anything tightly around them." Kureha took her 'Pay' and left with Chopper. The young boy waving goodbye to Luffy as he walked out.

M/n shoved his shirt back down, leaving the house despite the protests of literally everyone. Sabo and Ace tried grabbing him and forcing him to stay inside but He still refused, almost electrocuting them. Despite not like the old Hag he did what she said, taking deep breaths, and he was literally just walking. He didn't consider that too physical.

Luffy moved the hat on his head above his eyes, taking it off and looking at it. Finally noticing his hat was gone and now he had M/ns on. He finally qued in when his hat fell off... While they were rolling down the hill. Shoving M/ns hat back on his head he went upstairs to his room, changing into a fresh pair of clothes at Lidia's request.

M/n walked west of the house, looking around the area he thought he had gotten beaten up at. Retracing his steps looking for the stupid straw hat. Checking where he hid Luffy and in the area. Spotting the Brim peek up from under some snow. Hiking up the Hill he grabbed it, Cursing when he felt something tug back when he had it fully in his hands. 

"Mingo." He hissed, pulling out a shitty pocket knife Milo had gotten him for his birthday one year, Cutting all around the sides of the hat until it Caught on a string. Forcefully Cutting the string and tearing the brim of the hat a little. He'd sew that up later. Walking back down the Hill he dusted the hat off. Going back towards the house. 

Some birds had begun to migrate back into the area, and some had stuck it out for the winter. Chirping away, M/n took a look around, Seeing the tree he pretty much got stomped into...

-

"you shouldn't stick your nose into things you don't want to" ? Growled gripping the Collar of M/ns shirt

"Not My fault you don't know how to keep your business private-" M/n spit back, looking ? dead in the eye

A Vien on their forehead made itself known, Tossing M/n somewhere on the ground.

"You really waste my time~" ? hummed, Kicking M/n into the Nearest tree...

M/n shook his head, walking the rest of the way back to the house...
