Madness Melody.[Discontinued]

Back to work.

-AN-
Sorry I've been kind of neglecting this story, guys. I was getting caught up in my Questions book and my Ace x Reader. Anyway, I'm here! So, let the Sabo-ness commence! Also, the outfit is what I describe later on. (Minus the bag)

Sabo: *blinks rapidly*

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

-Normal POV-

A gentle huff of warm breath was what woke the (h/c) that morning. The air ghosted over her ear, waking her with a shudder as her eyes cracked open. The first thing she noticed was she had turned over in her sleep, and now had her back pressed firmly against a toned stomach.

The warm breath continued to fan out over her ear, and she turned her head to see Sabo still sleeping. His lips parted gently as he took in even sips of air, before releasing it seconds later.

He looked so peaceful like that. Bordering on vulnerable. Turning over again, she trained her eyes on the closed lids of her companion... What were they now? After yesterday's encounter, she couldn't continue to call him a brother. Were they partners, or just two people fooling around?

Either way, she didn't actually mind.

Azure blue gems were revealed to (e/c) orbs as long-lashed lids slid open. She wanted to gasp at the intensity behind those eyes. This close to him, she could see the different shades of blue dancing within his irises. Contrasting beautifully with the orange his devil fruit leaked into the mix. She could almost see the flames dancing behind his pupils.

His smile crept up his cheeks in a gradual way, making her smile in turn at the sleepy blond before her.

His blond hair stuck up in a mess around his face and angular jaw. For a brief second, (Name) was convinced he was an angel. Flawless skin, blue eyes and blond hair. Stereotypical by all means, but it was the truth.

"What are you thinking about?"

His husky morning voice inquired, passing tweaked up lips as a playfully-curious smile pulled at the flesh.

A smile of her own curled her lips as she hummed in response, propping her head up on her elbow.

"Just how handsome you are."

He chuckled, eyes casting down in un-hidden embarrassment as a small strip of pink coloured his cheeks.

"You're so shy."

She cooed, eyes locking with his again. This only made his cheeks turn pinker. The coy smile on his face made him look adorable. Squealing a bit, she giggled.

"Kawaii!"

She kissed his nose,making his eyes widen as the pink turned red. Squealing again, she began to feather kisses all over his face. He wasn't complaining. She stopped just before his lips, shooting him a small smirk, before slowly leaning in and capturing the flesh.

Sighing contentedly through his nose, the blond allowed his eyes to close once again. He shifted his, slightly asleep, arm and placed a hand on her cheek. Thumb caressing the rosy skin.

Their moment was cut short by a knocking on the door, and Sabo had to contain a near feral growl. Giggling at his irritable groan, which he released instead of a growl, (Name) stood up. Opening the door, Koala was revealed, smiling cheerfully.

"Ohayo, (Name)-Chan!"

She leaned her head past the (h/c) and grinned at the male.

"Sabo-Kun."

Straightening up again, she adjusted her hat.

"Ohayo Koala-San."

The brunette grinned and slipped into the room, leaving (Name) to chuckle and shut the door. Koala plopped onto the girls bed, smiling at the (h/c).

"We've missed you, (Name)-Chan. We've been at quite a loss without your guidance."

The (h/c) smiled. For the army, she was quite important. Not only was she the primary sense of navigation, but was also a valued strategist. Without her on board for four days, the vessel will have no doubt been weakened significantly.

"Dragon-San says he wants you to get straight back to work! We need you on top form ASAP if we're going to reach the next island in the required time."

Nodding, (Name) grabbed some clothes and slipped into the bathroom. She decided upon a sleeveless leather jacket, which was decorated with studs. A simple,plain black tank top and black skinnies, along with a pair of heeled boots. She quickly brushed her hair, and headed back into the room.

"Let's not waste time, then."

Koala nodded and grabbed her hand.

"Sabo-Kun, meet us in the map room!"

The blond barely had time to register how attractive the (h/c) looked in the outfit before she was tugged from the room.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

The second the two females were in the map room, (Name) was attacked with a barrage of 'welcome backs'.

She smiled at the familiar faces, before heading to the front of the room. Maps were spread over every surface, log poses and eternal poses scattered everywhere. The one that stuck out the most to (Name) was the eternal pose labelled as,

'Lavender town'

Couldn't think of a name, so I stole it from pokemon! :)

"Alright, Koala, can you fetch me the pose for the island we're headed to?"

Giggling, the brunette pointed at the pose (Name) had been staring at.

"You're looking right at it."

(Name) felt her very heart stop in it's tracks. Her blood ran cold, and in the moment, she was sure she was going to faint. Swallowing thickly, her (e/c) orbs scanned the pose over and over.

"Ne, (Name)-Chan? You ok?"

Snapping from her shock, she nodded and began working out the coordinates of their location on the map, as well as how long it would take before they arrived.

"We'll be arriving in three days."

She breathed quietly, and Koala sighed.

"Finally, laaaanddd!!"

Chuckling dryly, (Name) grabbed the pose and glared at it.

Looks like I'm going home....
