Denial {Eustass Kid x Reader}

Prologue

(Y/n) pov

I was sitting on a rock watching the waves gently sway in and out from the island just lost in my thoughts.

The wind was blowing my (h/c) hair out of my face.

"Ugh, Im never going to get out of here why does my life have to be so boring?"

I sighed a few times before pushing myself off the rock and brushing my butt off.

"Well I guess it's time to go to work" I said, grabbing the little basket I brought with me for my lunch. I then slowly walk back to my house.

I live in a one bedroom small sort of run down yellow house just on the outside of the town. My parents died when I was 14, and they left me with nothing.

Im all alone in this miserable world. I walk inside and sigh heavily, wallowing in my pity. I quickly shower and change into my work clothes.

Just a simple pair of black shorts and a white tank top with black boots that go just above my ankle. I also have three daggers strapped to each thigh.

I brush my teeth and grab my bag not bothering to lock the door because I have nothing worth of any value anyway. The only thing I have that means anything to me is the necklace I wear. Its a (f/c) locket on a silver chain with a picture of my parents inside. It's all I have left of them.

As I get to the bar and walk in there's only a few customers, Pirates of course, drunk off their ass and being way to loud

"Looks like it's going to be another long day" I murmur to myself.

--------------

I only have about an hour left of my shift and I can't wait for it to be over I've been groped by way too many disgusting guys today and my patience is wearing thin.

I start hearing screams outside, a few explosions and some gunshots. That's kinda normal for an island like this, since there's no Marine base here. Pirates kinda do whatever they want. I basically just ignore it and continue on with picking up the empty bottles and cleaning the dirty tables they left behind.

I may be stuck on this island but I keep up with the news enough to know about all the strongest pirates out there. So I've been training for the last eight years to protect myself since I'm alone. I used to train with my best friend Kevin but unfortunately a pirate killed him last year.

Flashback

We were celebrating me finally kicking his ass for the first time. He was way too drunk as we were walking down the street back to his house so he could sleep it off.

He suddenly ran straight into Eustass "Captain" Kid himself. Eustass seemed to be particularly ticked off when he looked down at Kevin, and the only word I heard out of his mouth was "Attract".

Me not being nearly as drunk gave them a confused look.

"I'm so sorry" I begin to say, but the only word that came out of Eustass mouth next was "Repel"

I didn't even notice the jagged piece of metal fly by my face until it struck Keven right in the heart. He died instantly.

I instantly sobered up and dropped to my knees and grabbed his lifeless body, sobbing as loud as i could. Eustass just looked at me smirked and said "come on killer we don't have time to waste" and walked off.

I never did see him again after that. He should probably be happy because the next time I see him I vow to kill him. Kevin was all I had in this world, my best friend and he was gone just like that.

End flashback

I was standing behind the bar cleaning glasses lost in my thoughts when the door was slammed open, jolting me from my thoughts. My eyes went wide and my blood ran cold when I noticed who it was.....

Eustass Kid!
