40. A Special Day

It was a very important day, not just for you or your family, but Kid. It had been about two years since the war back then. Your father had recovered as well as Ace and you began to learn more about your devilfruit. You joined forces with both Kid and your father despite having your own crew.

You could only smile at everything. Such hard times you went through, all the pain and crying. It led to such a joyous moment. Recently, Kid had taken you out on your two year anniversary to the casino you worked at. Just like Kid, you had your own gang to manage but you also worked at the casino as a bartender still.

Your crew consisted of the strongest men you could gather as well as the toughest women. Similar to Shanks, the women on your crew not only worked in sex, they also sold illegal alcohol and were the party planners of large gatherings.

The men in your crew were your blacksmiths, they were the ones to fetch the materials for your weapons and produce them. Each category has its own commander. For the sex work, the commander of that unit was a tall woman with short blonde hair and emerald-like eyes. She dressed in scandalous clothing but she was respectful of when Kid would visit. She had her partner, a tall skinny man with long black hair tied into a ponytail most times with an undercut. They were the ones in control of the prostitution.

For the weapons. It was commanded by a tall muscular man with dreadlocks that were usually styled in a ponytail or a bun. He wore star sunglasses and had a large-spiked septum piercing. He dressed in dark colors with hints of gold and green. His partner was a man with long luscious hair that was half blue half white; he wore half of a moon mask and he dressed in suits.

For deliveries and trades, you were the one usually in command, but when you couldn't take over or were busy, your two second in commands was a light-brunette woman with pink streaks throughout her hair and snake-like eyes; her accomplice being a dark-skinned man with a cobra around his neck and a black afro that faded to a light blonde at the end—he wore a mask that covered only his mouth and his eyes were that of two different colors.

Your highest authority other than you was Kid and his crew. If you weren't able to lead, Kid and his crew would take over for you. Despite this, you left your two second in commanders to leader while you were out on your anniversary. Kid had taken you to the rooftop of the casino where you got a beautiful view of the city at night.

It was full of lights and was the most gorgeous thing you had ever seen. That was until you turned around, seeing him on one knee with a rose. It was the happiest moment of your life, better than when he first confessed. Now you were getting ready for your wedding.

You sat there as Thatch did your hair nicely. It was curled and he was pinning it up accordingly. There were pearls and flowers all pinned in your hair. It was overwhelming but you felt so happy at the same time. You and Kid decided to do a non-traditional wedding.

He would be wearing white and you would be wearing black. Your dress was one that had no straps and had sheer sleeves with black speckles on them. It went up your neck like a turtle-neck and the dress hugged your figure but was long and flown at the end. It came with a black-sheer coat with a hood. You wore basic stiletto heels with red and goal accents.

You felt your prettiest. The dress was everything you wanted, your makeup was done how you wished and Thatch was styling your hair just how you pictured. It was going to be yours and Kids perfect wedding. Everything was going to feel like a dream, all because of that one fateful night.

"I have a surprise for you." He said with a grin. You laughed as you took his hand. He was always full of surprises for you. Some were extreme, some were small. No matter what, it always managed to amaze you.
