A/N: I had to watch Ace's death way too many times to prep for this one. So you, yes you reading this right now, you better enjoy the angst, the death, the destruction!! Or else I'll.. idk cry?
The thick summer air clung to your skin as you sprinted through the dense trees of Mt. Colubo, your breath coming fast and shallow.
The sounds of snapping branches and hurried footsteps echoed behind you, Luffy, as usual, was struggling to keep up, his shorter legs working overtime.
"Ace! Y/N! Wait up!" Luffy whined, stumbling over a root but catching himself before he could faceplant into the dirt.
You glanced back just in time to see Ace snicker, leaping effortlessly over a fallen log. "If we wait for you, we'll get caught, dumbass!" he called, grinning wildly.
"We wouldn't be running if you didn't steal the old man's sake!" you shot back, narrowly dodging a low hanging branch.
Ace just laughed, unfazed. "He's too drunk to catch us". A distant yell reminded you of why you were sprinting through the jungle in the first place.
The old man from Foosha Village, Makino's customer, had been livid the moment Ace swiped his sake bottle and bolted. You had been sitting next to him at the time, just minding your business, when Ace grabbed your wrist and dragged you along, and, well, you weren't going to pass up a good chase.
Your lungs burned as the three of you finally burst out of the treeline, reaching the safety of the cliffs. Below, the Blue Mountain River stretched into the ocean, its waters shimmering under the afternoon sun.
Ace skidded to a stop and popped the cork on the stolen sake, chugging down a swig before sighing in satisfaction. "Totally worth it". You bent over, hands on your knees, trying to catch your breath. "You're such a pain in the ass".
Ace just smirked and held the bottle out toward you. "C'mon, have some. You deserve it for keepin up".
You rolled your eyes but took the bottle anyway, tipping it back just enough to taste the burn of alcohol before handing it off to Luffy. He pulled a face after his first sip, coughing violently. "That's nasty!"
Ace burst into laughter, and you found yourself laughing too. It was always like this, the three of you running wild, stealing food, dodging angry towns folk.
Even though Ace was a brat, even though he pushed your buttons like no one else, you wouldn't trade this life for anything.
The laughter died down, and Ace flopped onto the grass, arms crossed behind his head. "Hey" he said, staring up at the sky. "One day, when we're pirates, we're gonna love this stuff".
You grinned. "I'm not so sure Luffy will". Ace hummed in response, his expression unreadable. The wind ruffled his dark hair as he shifted, tilting his head toward you. "But you're not like Luffy" he muttered. "You're smart enough to know what kinda life that is".
