Once Bitten, Twice Shy [[Kid X Reader X Ace]]

Awkward Turtle

READER POV

'OH. MY. FUCK.', you thought to yourself as you heavily pulled yourself up from your bed.....wait..bed? How did you get here? Last thing you remember was passing out on the kitchen floor with......

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!" you groaned, dragging your hands down your face, pulling at your features. Dammit.....you had been so good not to fall into that fucking (a/n: pun intended) trap. 'Ugh...well, so much for that. Lay off the whisky for a bit. Everything and I mean, ev-er-y-thing hurts,' you cursed at yourself as you stood up to go to the restroom.

As you hobbled your way into the hallway you remembered your kitchen. What time was it even? Ace is going to be here at any moment!!! FUCK!!!

Ignoring the searing pain between your legs, you ran to the kitchen to discover a very  hastily wall with your kitchen door in pieces as the centerpiece of it all. "Whelp, that'll do pig. That'll do." you said mimicking a childhood favorite film, Babe. A small smile curled in the corner of your mouth. "Not a bad job, Kid, but you so could've done better," you paused, "Hell, I could've done better."

You turned to look at the clock on the microwave... 12:45pm....god dammit!!! You hurried through the motions and just had to give yourself a hooker bath* and cinch your (h/l)(h/c) into a ponytail before the door bell rang.

You were still hopping into your pants when you got to the door. You opened it up to the familiar freckled raven and smiled. "Ace, you beautiful ray of sunshine!," you beamed giving him a huge hug.  He squeezed you back and you two walked inside. You went and made some coffee and scrounged through your barren pantry trying to find something to eat. "Cookies?" you questioned flipping over the package, "Ha! Still got another two days!" you snickered looking at the expiration date.

"What happened to your kitchen?!", Ace practically screamed walking in.

'Shit....Think. Think. Think. THINK......ha! got it!'

Ace looked at you while you were mentally screaming at yourself, he was going to say something, but you interjected. "Remember that storm that blew in last night? Well, it was pretty late and I heard a loud crash. I came running into the kitchen and noticed this huge tree branch had fallen off and gone right through my door!"

....'Don't think hes buying it....'

You could see the crease marks start to form between his brows and he had crossed his arms but still listened to your blatant elephant of a lie. "I got it cleaned up and then had someone haul the shit away early this morning." you continued. "This is just  temporary patch." you whispered out the last part and looked down.

"Alright, but I mean, c'mon, this is shit!" Ace blurted out taking his cup of coffee and close-to-expiring cookies from you. "I've seen you do way better work than that before." he chuckled stuffing a cookie in his mouth.

"I hope you choke." you sneered at him with narrowed eyes.

"Hey, no need for low blows." he said feigning being hurt.

The doorbell rang again. You both looked at each other. "I'm not expecting anyone else." you stated. "Did you have someone else come with you to drop off your stuff?"

Ace shook his head no, unable to communicate with a mouthful of cookies. 'Cute idiot.' you thought as you walked to the door.

"Good Afternoon, (y/n)-ya", Law smiled. You deadpanned....why was he here and fuuuuuck, why did he bring Kid and Zoro, especially Kid...
