Fire And Flame

Chapter 11

MONKEY D LUFFY was written in bold letters on the official wanted posters of the marines. People chatter all around you about this rookie pirate. The stories you were hearing were quite fascinating to say the least.

"HEY ACE!!" Thatch yells over the crowd to a man sitting at the bench reading the poster.

Marco, Thatch and you run over to Ace to confront him about the letter only to be met with the loud snores coming from him. Sighing Marco throws him over his shoulder and the three of you head back to the ship.

"I swear, this man can never go at least thirty minutes without passing out," Marco said slightly sweating from the man upon his back with the artificial body heat.

Y/N followed behind the two men as they chatted, observing the sleeping male. His rosy face was pressed up against Marco's back. His freckled cheeks slightly poofed out. Ace was really cute when he was asleep. The only time you could truly admire his gorgeous face. Y/N blushed at the thought.
You really did wonder what he had written on that piece of paper.

Timeskip

I awake to a soft warm light peeking through my curtains. I sit up and rub the tiredness out of my eyes, putting my reading glasses on. I had been fascinated with learning geography recently So I read maps and books in my spare time or moments like these that aloud me to appreciate the small moments like these. As I move to the next chapter I hear a light audible knock on my bedroom door. I look up from my book, as they enter. It was Marco. I had a fever going on when we had arrived back to the Moby Dick last night and the pineapple head insisted I stay in bed and rest.

I still have training to do. It's a week left until next month and I feel like I haven't
learned or improved one bit! You thought to yourself quietly as Marco made his way over to your resting form. Marco feels my forehead with the back of his hand, and slightly frowns.

"You haven't gotten better, Y/N," Marco says looking down into your eyes, " Do you feel okay?"

"Yes, I feel fine," you reply swatting his hand away.

"You're still pondering on that note, huh?" Marco says.

"Was it that obvious?" You chuckle lightly to yourself, gracing your soft post sleep face.

Marco chuckles and messes up your hair, "I'll have him come in here when he gets up." Marco said walking towards the door, before falling to the floor.

Marco looks beside him to see the geography you held in your hands that had been thrown at him. He gets up slowly rubbing his bare head and gave you a 'What the fuck' look.

"Don't mess up my hair." You said with a glare.

Marco slowly backed up. A sweat drop visible amongst his temple. Marco reaches the door handle and slowly exits the room, scared he would have another book thrown at him. You chuckle to yourself. Getting up slowly you go and fetch the book on the floor. Another hand lands on yours. You look up to be met with those oh so familiar onyx orbs staring into yours. A slight tint of pink was visible on his freckle stained cheeks.

"Been a little bit hasn't it?" Ace said smirking.

You smack his head.

"Ow! What the fuck, Y/N?!" Ace whines rubbing his now sore head.

"What the fuck did that note say!!" You ask the sulking man in front of you.

"What do you mean?" Ace said with a curious look.

"There was a note left on my bed. I couldn't read it due to the really bad hand writing" You sigh, rubbing your temples.

"Hm a note..a note...note..OH!!" Ace thinks aloud, "that silly piece of paper! You must've found the note I was sending to my brother, Luffy!" Ace said.

"Monkey D Luffy?" You ask, shock gracing your features.

"Yeah! Do you know him or something?"

"We went into town looking for you and we came across a wanted poster for him. He sure is worth a lot for a rookie," You say the last part to yourself.

"My kid brother sure is a handful, I'll tell ya that," Ace says laughing.

"If it was for Luffy, then why was it in my room?" You ask, getting back to the main topic of your encounter.

Ace thought for a moment, "Oh, that was probably because I went into your room to take a nap on your comfy bed," Ace says with a cat like expression on his face.

"You. Did. WHAT?" You yell.

Without letting Ace explain, you use your devil fruit powers, creating a giant water hand, and throw him the roof of your room, aka the deck of the ship.

Marco and thatch slowly approach the puncture on the deck, peeking through the giant hole Ace flew out of moments ago. They peek down at you making eye contact with your teal orbs.

"Oh shit." They say in unison.

Marco and Thatch were then sent flying. They just so happened to land right on the recovering Ace, dog piling on top of him.

"ARGH GET YOUR ASSES OFF ME!!" Ace screeches.

Marco being sandwiched in between the two men was knocked unconscious.

Whitebeard enters the deck and falls down the hole into your room, breaking your floor and falling into the food cellar.

"Oh fuck my life." You said knowing you would get it from your father.

Vista sat with his crewmates chucking with them at the ruckus. Becoming a Whitebeard pirate really did have its perks.
