An hour had passed and you could hear Ace snoring, now it was time to come out. Slowly you slid out from under the cupboard. You got up and breathed in the fresh air, tight spaces aren't comfortable at all.
"I'm not doing that again.." You told yourself, you were kinda sweaty and it felt gross, not caring that Ace was in the room you got changed out of your shirt but stayed in your shorts and bra, you needed fresh air.
"OI, Y/N"
You jumped a little at the sound of his voice.
"I thought you were asleep.."
"I was now who's that guy you're meeting tomorrow at Lousa Motel?"
He must have found the box..
"An old friend, we haven't seen each other in a while.."
"You don't mind if I come along then?"
"Ace this is something I'd like to do on my own"
Ace sat up from his laying position, his face turned red as he saw what you were wearing.
"Damn...."
"Pervert.."
He got up and made his way over to you.
"How about I get our navigator to turn this ship in a different direction?"
Your eyes widened.
"You wouldn't"
"I would.."
You crossed your arms and looked up at him annoyed, you saw him lick his lips hungrily as his eyes trailed down to your breasts.
"My eyes are up here"
He completely ignored you and continued to stare, drool started running down the corner of his mouth.
"ACE THATS GROSS!"
He snapped out of it and wiped away the drool.
"It's not my fault, it's like you're putting out a donut infront of a dog that hasn't eaten for a week"
"Baka!"
"Could I get a hug?" Ace asked out of nowhere.
"No way you weirdo, get out of my room!"
"No"
"Yes"
"No"
"Yes"
"No"
The Next Day
Ace followed closely behind you as you made your way to the motel.
"You didn't have to wear that dress just to impress me Y/N" Ace said as he chuckled.
You rolled your eyes and shook your head. You could see the motel not just too far away.
"I can see the motel" you told Ace.
In one swift movement Ace was next to you, with his arm wrapped around your hip as you walked.
"Oh yeah I can see it" Ace replied
"ACE WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"
"Nothing why?"
"Why are you doing this?"
"Doing what?"
"Don't play dumb with me Mr Portgas"
He turned away and started to whistle innocently like nothing was going on and it was all fine and dandy.
"Ace let me go please"
"No"
You stopped walking and tried getting out of his hold.
"Seriously Ace, please!"
"Stop struggling you're going to cause a commotion Y/N"
"I don't care let me go"
"Y/N?"
You turned towards the voice, Ace let go and he paced towards the man.
"The names Ace, Fire Fist Ace, I'm her boyfriend, what do you want?" Ace said sternly.
"Ace dont be a dick! That's my friend"
"I don't care, what's your business with her anyways huh? Because if you're trying to get with her well that's not happening anytime or anywhere, and I'll make sure of that" Aces hand turned into a flaming fist.
"N-no way, we're just childhood friends I swear! I haven't seen her in a few years!"
"Leave Coby alone! Baka!" You punched the back of Aces head.
"Coby!" You walked past Ace and pulled Coby into a tight hug.
Ace glared at the two of you darkly.
"It's been so long Y/N"
"Yeah it has"
"I can see you've grown in all the right places" Coby chuckled as he blushed a little. You laughed. Ace stood behind you, his eyes stared into Coby's soul as he clicked his fingers to reveal a small flame in between them as a warning. Coby swallowed down some saliva that was stuck in his throat.
"Are you okay Coby?"
"Y-yes of course I am why wouldn't I be okay? Hah.." Coby coughed out nervously.
"Hmm okay then if you say so"
"Also I joined the Marines!"
"Woah! That's amazing it's nice to see you're fulfilling your dream Coby, and I guess you've seen me in the papers?.."
"Yeah...but that doesn't mean we still can't be friends"
You both smiled and fist pumped each other. Ace put up another flaming fist behind your back.
Coby chuckled nervously.
