Birdie's POV ~ Lemon

A few hours after You left and the crew came back on the ship, Kai leaned uncomfortably close to the cabin’s door.

He knew better than disturb his captain on a night like that.

The men had a little habit, when Kid was in his worst days: someone stayed close enough to his room or his workshop, so he could warn the others in time if Kid got out in murdering mood.

Being a particularly bad moment, the top ranks took a random younger member and placed him in front of the captain’s cabin. Plus, most of the pirates wanted to be alone, that night.

That was some bad luck for Kai.

He sighed.

Honestly, he felt bad for his captain, but there was nothing he could do.

Something cracked, in the darkest corner of the isle.

He jumped, senses immediately tense.

Nobody was supposed to be there.

Was someone trying to sneak-attack their ship? Some Marines maybe? They were on the island, after all.

An indistinct figure moved closer, and Kai lost no time: he tackled it, pointing a dagger on their throat.

«Who the hell…»

His roar faded in a low mutter when he found himself staring at a known annoyed expression.

«You’re a very efficient guard dog, Kai.» you mumbled from the ground.

«Y/n!» he choked «I though you… wha-what are you doing here?»

You were wearing a bunch of dark civilian clothes, too large for you, and a hat that covered most of your face. At least before Kai straddled you, sending it flying somewhere.

You quirked an eyebrow at him.

«Do you want to sit on me for the rest of the night or am I allowed to stand?»

«Oh, of course!»

He jerked up, blushing lightly, and you did the same, quietly dusting your big coat.

«What are you doing here?» he asked, now in a lower volume.

«The official excuse is that I’m here to put a good word for F/n.»

«Are you going to st–»

You placed a hand on his mouth before he could finish.

«No. It’s just for tonight.»

Realization entered his eyes and he nodded, so you released him.

You hinted at the cabin’s door.

«Now go, I can take it from here. And don’t tell anyone that you saw me.»

Kai sighed and briefly rubbed your arm, before disappearing below deck.

You took a deep breath and approached the door, knocking twice. Then, you slipped in without waiting for a reply.

Once inside, you immediately dived on the floor to avoid the flying knife.

«WHO THE FUCK–»

«Always a pleasure.»

Kid's mouth snatched closed when his blazing eyes landed on you.

Trying to ignore the heart pounding in your chest, you forced your lips to bend in a cocky smirk.
