Your POV | Moby Dick

I smiled to myself as I looked down at the present in hand, it was (something you thought Marco would like). I saw him looking rather dreamily at it for a while and literally burst my piggy bank for it, but I didn't regret a thing since seeing his smile is enough for me. 

I looked around to see Ace was nowhere to be found, maybe out with Izo to distract Marco since the whole ship was literally busy with decorating the Mess Hall for Marco. 

Marco, oh how whispering his name is enough to make the butterflies in my stomach flutter, he was always the protective among all of us, since we all looked up to him as our older brother but to me? He was my boyfriend, my soulmate, my blue sunshine. 

"(Y/N)? Can you help me out?" I looked over to see Thatch smiling sheepishly at me, one hand holding onto a bag of icing while the other was holding the miniature figure of a pineapple, I chuckled while shaking my head as he still insisted to tease the blond male even on his birthday. 

"Sure, what do you need?" 

"Help me decorate this can you? I need to make sure the others didn't ruin the decorations!" he stated as he shoved the icing back into my arms, making my eyes widened. Sure, I can cook but decorating? Not in my list, at all. 

"B-bu-"

"Thanks!" my protest was cut short by Thatch's running off as I sighed, I looked over to the yellow-ish cake with a smile before sighing. At least there's another thing for me to do for now to let time goes by anyway. 

I held the icing bag with great firm grip as I began decorating it, not even realizing that Thatch had set me up for this. 

Third POV | Later that night

Marco was literally gritting his teeth as he dragged an already fallen asleep Ace back onto the ship, he wanted nothing more than to drown himself into his workplace or at least cuddle with his (Y/N). He sighed, thinking that he can't spend his whole birthday daylight with them as his eyebrows lifted at the noises coming from the Mess Hall. 

As he grew closer to the door, it suddenly became quiet as he started to worry about the once rowdy crew. He literally kicked the door open as lights were switched on, followed by a chorus of celebrating his birthday making him sigh in relief to see his fellow brothers and sisters only planning his birthday. 

He rubbed the back of his neck as he approached the beautiful decorated cake in the middle of the room, he could see his beloved (Y/N) standing at the sight with a grin on their face as he closed in to blow the small fires on the candles with a wish in mind. 

The crew shouted along with Whitebeard as they saw their beloved commander's smile, as he approached the person he loved with all his heart. 

His heart made a flip as they revealed the nicely wrapped present in their hands as he took it with great cautious, he pulled onto the wrappings gently as his eyes widened at the one thing he needed, and for it to be given by someone he loved? 

Made him fall in love with them even more. 

Honestly, this is a nice way to celebrate his birthday, after dragging a narcoleptic Ace around all day. 

By the way, where's Ace?
