I did my best to make this fluff, fluff.
---------------------------------------------

Y/n stood at the edge of the bed. Her hands reached around and searched for one of the most important things in the world. "Where are my glasses." You mumbled as a feeling of unease made it through your body. After realizing you won't find them in your room, you set a course to the bathroom. Navigating through your own house was easy, but the unease and irritation grew.

After searching around the whole place, you gave up. "Ugh, where is it." You whined, lying down on the table. You hoped you had your normal breakfast on the table, not something else. Squinting with your eyes, you tried to read on the package. This is either milk or yogurt. . . . It's the milk.

Ace stood outside, preparing himself to see you. "Alright, I'm ready." He knocked on the door and waited patiently. After a while, he knocked again. "IT'S NOT LOCKED, OPEN IT ON YOUR OWN!" You yelled as you searched for the butter in the fridge. Ace opened the door carefully. You had never yelled at him before.

He made his way to the kitchen and found you slamming the fridge shut and walking to the table holding the small butter box. You finally looked in his direction, and he nervously prepared to tell you his excuse for coming so early.

Squinting your eyes, you looked at the blurry silhouette of a person. "Who are you?" You asked, pointing a finger at the person who you suspect to be a guy. A heavy and shocked feeling filled Ace. Sure, he had tried to avoid you when he realized his feelings and got scared cause of it. But just yesterday, you had been at his place working on a project with Sabo. Had he avoided you so much that you forgot about him?

"Dude! I wanna eat my breakfast in peace, and I can't do that unless I know who the flip it is standing in my kitchen." You mutter out a clear irritation in your voice. "Sorry, it's me, Ace. You know Sabo's and Luffy's brother." He said, hiding his disappointment. "Ace? I knew you before both Luffy and Sabo. Why would you tell me something so obvious." You asked as you began to eat.

"Well, you don't seem to recognize me." He answered as he reached into his pocket for the keys you forgot yesterday. "Ace, I lost my glasses. You need to help me find them." You whined, taking another bite of your most likely failed sandwich. "Why are you here anyway?" You asked, knowing Ace had been distant to you now and then.

"Oh, well I, I mean, Luffy found your keys after you left yesterday, and I came to bring them back." He answered doing his best not to stutter. "Oh, yeah. I had to use my reserve, just put them on the table, I might not find them anywhere else."

"Sure, so, can you like, not see me, now?" Ace asked as he annoyingly swung his hand in front of your eyes. "I'm not blind. I can still see, but everything is blurry." Upon hearing your explanation, Ace sat down at the table. "That must be quite hard and annoying. I see if I can find them." Ace declared. "That would be great."

Ace smiled and blushed as he had an excuse to hold your hand. "So today you're supposed to buy food at the store, right?" Ace asked, remembering your routine. "Yup, can you take me to ________? It's the best food store." You smiled, holding Ace a little harder. If I pretend that I suck at navigating the town, he and I can hold hands.

"I need quite a lot, but are you sure you're not busy?" You asked as you felt on the fruit wanting to find a fresh and good one. "Don't worry, I'm free until tomorrow." He laughed as he too, began looking at the fruit. "Do you need some refill on snacks?" He asked as he looked at the aisle. "I think I do."

"Can you make out the bench over there?" He asked, making sure it was in your line of sight. "Yeah, I see it. Kinda, at least." You answered. "Wait, there with the food, while I run to the restroom for a second." You did as he said and then sat there feeling bad for making him do all this. He had saved you from stubbing your toes into a lot of stuff. And from having to spend hours in the store.

"Hey, little lady, are you waiting for your boyfriend?" A voice asked from behind. You recognized Ace's voice easily, even though he used another tone. Deciding to spare Ace the embarrassment, the answer became. "What if I do?" You heard the man move around a little, like a happy dance. I'm not deaf, you adorable strawberry. You thought, knowing Ace most likely had a crush on you.

"Then I won't bother you." The man, aka Ace, said, walking away. You focused on the footsteps and listened as he walked around. "Hey, Y/n, did I make you wait?" Ace called out, failing to hide his excitement. "Not at all." You answered a smile growing upon hearing how happy he was.

Walking hand in hand through the center of the town, the two of you got closer to the stairs. Ace didn't realize the problem until you let his hand leave yours as he stepped down. "I can't make out where the steps start nor end." If it was something you hated while not having glasses, it would be stairs. Ace flung the food bag up on his shoulder. "I can carry you down." He offered, sounding smug, but you could make out a quite red face.

"Won't that make it hard for you to get down?" You asked as that weird warmth filled your body. "No." He answered, picking you up bridal style. Ace easily carried you down the stairs. He was gonna put you down, but---- "Ace? We're down the stairs now." You said as you lightened the grip around him. "And?"

"You can let me down." You said, trying to hide the blush. "Nah, we're soon at your house anyway." Ace took a better grip around you and then walked comfortably, completely ignoring the people watching. "Ace, there must be people staring at us." You whispered, feeling embarrassed. "There's no one staring." He declared. Though that was a lie, and you knew it since peoples silhouette seemed to stop in your direction. You gave up with a sigh and got yourself comfortable.

"This is more comfortable than I thought it be." You mumbled to Ace delight. "Ace, we should be at my place by now." You stated, looking around from his arms, only to see the blurry world. "Well, I tried to take a shortcut. But, eh, I guess I took the wrong way, and it became a longer shortcut." You translated his sentence to, 'I loved seeing you in my arms so much I skipped going to your place and just walked around in circles.'

"You're really obvious, you know." You said, leaning into his chest. "Obvious? With, with what?" He stuttered. "You like me, don't you?" You asked, taking a good grip on him, waiting nervously for his answer. He stooped in his tracks and sighed. "I've fallen a bit harder, so like, isn't really strong enough." He confessed, beginning to walk again. "Well then, I love you back." You also confessed snuggling into him. Ace looked down at you. A smile grew on his features.

Ace put the food in the fridge and then poured some of the snacks into a bowl. He settled down on the caugh, and then you two snuggled for the rest of the day.

"Ace, I found my glasses in the laundry." .:.:.
