Be My Bad Boy. {Eustass Kid x Reader x Marco}

School Gossip.

"O-Oh, right!" You nervously blurt as you try to straighten yourself up, silently scolding your tongue for allowing you to stutter like that as you press a palm to your reddened cheek in attempts to come off more thoughtful and not like you've just been listening in on conversations. "Well, no...I don't really think I am scared of anything."

Hell, I might be a stuttering moron but at least I'm not a liar.

Your words surprisingly bringing a smile to Mr. Marco's lips as he sits on the edge of your desk, his orbs fixated on your blank page and a quiet hum leaving his lips. "There must be something yoi, maybe you just haven't experienced it yet."

Now he mentions it.

"Well...I wouldn't call it a fear but I hate seeing people get bullied, does that count?" You hesitantly ask with uncertainty lacing your tone and Mr. Marco raising a brow but nodding his head slowly at least.

"If you dread the sight, I'll count it yoi." The blonde chirps kindly before he down from your table, instantly making a beeline to Ace. Naturally his features darken as he approaches his younger brother, though you'd assume this is because the freckled male had fallen asleep face-down in his sketchbook. "Seriously, Ace..."

A thump noise reaching your ears as Mr. Marco kicks his brother's chair leg harshly. "Wake up, ya lazy ass! Anyone would think it was you that had to rate test papers all ni--ACE!!" The male barks loudly when the kick fails to wake the freckled boy, causing most of the class to snicker and Ace to shoot up immediately with pencil smudged across his cheek.

"N-NOT THE BALLS!" The raven yelps in terror as his eyes spring open wide, sweat visibly trickling down his face. The comment only causing the entire class to burst into fits of laughter and Mr. Marco to simply tilt his head to the side questionably, his brows knitting together.

"Not the what...? Damn it yoi, will you invest in some energy drinks or something! Always falling asleep in class, how is that even possible with all the sugar you eat and drink?!" 

While Mr. Marco's distracted you take it upon yourself to try and listen up for Nami's voice again, hoping to catch what she was trying to say about Kid before. It's just as typical of your luck that she's no longer speaking about him though.

Though, this conversation is interesting itself...

"Apparently Boa Hancock has a massive crush on a student here but no one has actually witnessed her swooning over him so she gets away with it for now." Nami informs, trying to be quiet but considering how close her face is to the desk while she draws, her voice simply bounces off of it and makes it extremely easy for you to overhear.

Boa Hancock, huh?

"No kidding!" Bonney snorts with a mouth full of chocolate, it's no secret that this girl has one hell of an appetite and for some reason the teacher's let her get away with it. Maybe because she works hard despite her constant eating habit. "Who's she meant to like?"

 "Luffy, apparently~" Nami giggles playfully, clearly not believing what she had heard and judging by the expression on Bonney's face; you'd assume she doesn't buy it either. "I mean, she might get fired though, even if they're just rumors~"

"I doubt that considering Ms. Nico was in a relationship with that Zoro guy last I heard."

Well, I didn't know that either.

"Oh no-no, that one is a lie, Bonney! He only stopped her from tripping over in the hallway and everyone took it the wrong way!"

With a roll of your eyes, you continue on with your work since you have no interest in rumors that aren't true. They've clearly finished speaking about Kid and whatever information they had, whether it be big or small is gone now. 

Although, it was probably something stupid anyway. Like the rest of the rumors in this place...

Your phone catching your eye when another whistle sounds, a new text appearing on your screen from Kid saying 'Sorry :(' but it only manages to draw an irritated sigh from your lips.

If he was truly sorry, he would have just stayed out of trouble for once!

You end up deciding that you're not going to text him again, you wouldn't know what to say back to 'sorry' anyway and you'll just speak to him at Lunch time. A smile spreading across your lips when you feel a familiar presence behind you.

Good thing I didn't try to text back if Marco is watching...

"You're putting too much pressure on the lines yoi, you'll regret that when you make a mistake. It'll be harder to erase." Mr. Marco advises calmly as he leans over you, loosely cupping your hand with his, lifting your pencil tip from the paper slightly and making your strokes lighter. "If you hold the pencil this way, the lines will be finer. You can always go over them again later if you want them thick but for the first layer, it's best to keep them light."

A small shiver running up your spine as the blonde breathes against the back of your neck, your face sure as hell heating up though and your heart uncontrollably pounding against your chest. "Ri-Right, thanks..." Again you stutter like an idiot, this time causing Mr. Marco to chuckle softly at your expense.

Please kill me.

"Don't worry, you don't have to do it that way if you don't want to yoi. Just thought it would be easier for ya." The male chimes sweetly, his warm hand leaving yours as he moves onto the next desk. "And what about you, Killer? How are y--?! W-Why are you drawing breasts? Why do they scare you?!"

"Nothing scares me, they just make me nervous..."

Admittedly this surprises you also, Killer is friends with Kid and you hadn't thought that boobs of all things would make the guy anxious. Although, it would explain why he stiffens up when you hug him and refuses to look you in the eye most of the time.

I bet Mr. Marco will have fun marking his work later...
