Positive (Ace X Reader)

It's Done.

As you walk in Luffy notices the tension and speaks up "DID YOU GUYS BREAK UP??? WHAT HAPPENED? ARE YOU GETTING MARRIED? ACE WHY ARE THEY CRYING? Y/N SHOULD I KICK HIS ASS???" the youngest questions, bouncing around the two of you as Ace sighs. "Yeah Luffy, we broke up. Where's Pops?"

Luffy points to the kitchen as Ace drops your hand and makes his way there, you take a seat on the couch and pull a soft blanket over you as a couple men walk in. You recognize them from your childhood, Thatch being the dad like older brother, Marco being the second oldest who loves to encourage Luffy and his shenanigans.

   Marco takes a seat next to you, handing you a soda and smiling lazily. "Hey there Y/N, it's been a while huh? How are ya? You look great." he says softly as he chuckles a little. You smile sadly and look at him, taking the soda and sipping it. "I've been better but i'm glad I at least look pretty while I suffer." you laugh and lean your head against his shoulder. He had always been supportive of you and what you did and how you felt, even before you and Ace had gotten together.

   "Was it Ace? Did he do something?" he turns to you suddenly, his entire attitude becoming serious and concerned. You hesitate, you should've talked to Ace about how to tell everyone about the break-up. You look down at your lap and the cola in your hand, sighing. "Yeah, we broke up. He got a bit touchy and I freaked out and just kinda blurted feelings out like I always do. It ended on mutual terms I guess but still."

   You wait for a response but get nothing until two tattoo ridden arms pull you close, stroking your hair. Marco knew you that you could never talk about shit right after it happened so he did the only thing he knows and just held you. As he ran his fingers through your hair he whispered sweet things about you and talked about good memories you had with his family. The soft feeling of his finger tips lulled you to sleep in his arms.

  As you drifted off everyone starting coming into the room, Marco informing each newcomer of the situation as he held you close. Newgate was the last to come in, his cheerful expression turning cold as he saw you pitifully curled up in his sons arms. Regardless the party continued as you slept, Marco missing out on it all just to hold you.
