Portgas D. Ace X Reader - The boy from the church

3

Your intention wasn't to drink a lot that night; in fact, you even said to yourself before you arrived, that you're gonna be the most innocent person at this party, however, you couldn't hold your urge in after the fight between Luffy and Marco. You didn't even know if it was serious or not, since the black haired boy isn't the type to get involved in arguments like those. The first gulp had you feeling accomplished, and after this one, the count has began. When you reached the sixth bottle, the door opened and there appeared Izo. By that time, you already began feeling dizzy, as when you got up to greet the man, you slowly made your way up to him, almost passing out with every step you took.

"You son of a bitch." you screamed, completely ignoring what everyone else was telling you.

"Hey, y/n, you came... And you're already drunk." the long haired man smirked, leaving the groceries on the kitchen table. "You look like shit, what happened?"

"What is your problem, may I ask?" you mumbled. "What was going through your mind when you told Marco... my secret?" you hiccupped.

"You keep it as a secret? Damn, y/n, I didn't know you cared that much about it. If I'd known that, I wouldn't have said a thing, but I already knew that Ace goes there as well, and, after his disappearance, I made some connections, you know? So what's the big deal? You don't wanna help us find him or what?" he crossed his arms. "And by the way, do you even understand what I'm saying? You look flushed out of the toilet."

You listened as carefully as you could, but your sickness stood in the way. All you could see was a blend out Izo, slowly spinning in front of you, while you rotated your head in order to follow his unrealistic movements. After you stared at him for a little while, there appeared two clones of the long haired man, and that was when you started panicking and your heart began beating a bit too fast. You also felt your cold sweat, dripping on your forehead and palms, while Izo carefully grabbed your waist and led you to one of the bedrooms to put you to sleep. When he turned off the lights, you finally realized where you were, but, by that time, you could only see a straight line of dim light coming from the door, which had Izo's silhouette in the middle.

"I don't wanna go to sleep... I wanna finish the game with Nami and the others..." you moaned, moving your legs under the heavy blanket which was covering you.

"You're sick cause you drank too much, go to sleep or else, you're gonna regret everything you want to say right now."

"But I need to go home... I wanna see Luffy... and Ace... where's Ace?"

"He's not coming here because of you."

"Hey, you're lying!" you yelled. "He's not coming because of Marco, he's the jerk, blame him. I'm the one who befriended Ace after he ran away anyways."

"And you're proud of that, seriously? Do you think this is a good thing? I actually know Ace pretty well, and he wouldn't do anything like this. He wouldn't just disappear all of a sudden and hate on his brothers for no reason while flirting with a random chick. But I swear, this church experience has ruined both of you."

"You're just mad, fuck off, trans woman." you groaned, and Izo just slammed the door, leaving you in complete darkness. You cursed under your breath and you shifted through the bedsheets, wanting to get out of that room to just beat the crap out of everyone at this party. However, your dizziness stood in the way, so all you could do was to lay down and wait for someone else to find you, or to just sleep until morning.

You thought about Ace again, and you somehow still hoped he would show up, but you instantly regretted inviting Marco. There were a few lights reflected on the ceiling from the driving cars from outside, and you could even hear everyone's footsteps downstairs, yet, you couldn't go check them out, or else, you felt like you were gonna throw up. You glanced through the darkness of the room to look for a bathroom, but there was none, so you had to think really hard about something that would make you feel a little bit better, something that would make the vomit go away. While you began searching for Ace through your thoughts, when you were close to falling asleep, a door slamming and the sound of multiple people cheering, made you wake up from your reverie. Luffy's voice was sounding all the way throughout his house, greeting someone you've heard of before, but didn't quite know who it was.
