Ace's Sacrifices of Love (Hiatus)

Chapter 13: Broken Secrets

No one can look me in the eye and say both shanks and ace aren't hot! So together their fucking sexy! (My opinion) so enjoy

"So let's make a deal tell me what I want to know and I might tell you something you want to know." shanks then gave a clearly lustful look at the black-haired man. Mihawk smirked he knew shanks didn't mind sleeping with someone to get what he wants.

"Look shanks theirs a few things you need to know about what's going on." shanks then listened to everything he had to say.

~little later~

"hunnn..." ace moaned as he slowly got out of bed. He looked and surprisingly he was dress already. Well just a t-shirt some olds jeans. He heard the door opened.

"Hey ace..." shanks looked at ace and ace could clearly see that shanks eyes were clouded with a feeling ace have never felt from shanks before. It reminded him of Makino eyes when she figure out aces secret.

"Hey shanks is everything ok? Also...you dressed me right?" ace toke a moment to look at what he was wearing. Shanks giggled. They both knew ace was clearly joking. Ace knew it was shanks. But ace couldn't figure out why shanks was so quiet. Normally shanks was a bit of a talker and joker. Ace hated to say this, seeing as it was a girly thing to say, but he figured at least he would know.

"Did I do something wrong last night?" ace tried not to blush but to no prevail. Shanks was a bit surprised. Shanks gave a small chuckle and went and sat next to ace.

"No not at all..." he then looked at the boy with a serious look. But ace thought there was a bit of an ashamed look in his eyes.

"Ace we can't ever do that again. Also I don't think we should ever push our relationship past that as friends at the office." ace felt angry. This was the second time he was rejected. First luffy then shanks of all people. Ace felt like he was going to cry. Ace just gave up. He felt so broken he couldn't even describe his emotions. He was just saying whatever he felt at this point.

"Ya...I mean you're a play boy from what I hear. So it figures this would be a one night stand. I mean it's not like you really loved me or anything." ace forced a smile playing it off as if it was ok. Shanks pretended not to notice the clear look of sadness. Shanks bit his lip.

"Ya your right I always do this kind of thing. You need to be with someone who really loves you like luffy. Not someone who just wants sex." ace was shocked and angry with himself. Ace really thought shanks loved him. Like...like how luffy loved him.

"Come on let me just take you home..." shanks walked to the door. He didn't hear ace following. He turned to see ace seating on the edge of the bed crying. Shanks knew anything he said wouldn't help. But damn no one in this world and beyond could ever understand shanks feelings and why the man ever did what he did. Shanks clenched his fists and forced these words out.

"Come on you knew this would happen. I mean yes first time we had sex I'm sure any human would consider it rape. Sorry but I think I worked too hard on this. You can keep the job if it's not too much for you. But I'm done with that body of yours. Your brother can have you." shanks walked out.

Ace had never wanted someone by his side more. But luffy was dating someone else. Luffy even told him ace could date someone else and let him go and do it! Ace just wanted nothing more than to go and drink away this whole night. Ace felt the room to see shanks drink the hell out of some rum he had in the kitchen. He looked at ace. His face broken. No emotion and the clear wanting to cry. Shanks toke ace home and not another word was spoken.

"You have the weekend off I think you need It." shanks then slammed the door to aces apartment and left. Ace went and looked to see if luffy was home. It was noon and ace forgot when luffy said his date was. Or even if luffy was going or what was going on really. Ace figured he pushed it out of his mind then. He wasn't as in touch with Luffys other life as he was before that red-haired bastard was put in the picture.

Ace went and sat down on his couch. He found a hidden bottle of whiskey that he hid away for older company. Ace looked at the clock. It was noon. Ace tried to figure out his feelings. Ace felt broken. All of his emotions were jumbled up. Ace thought that if he could figure out how he felt and about who then he could figure out how to heal. Instead it just confused him more. Ace just turned on the TV and played a drink game. He had to take a gulp every time someone said and. ace didn't really play it that much he just drank the entire bottle. He then went and found a secret bottle in his closet of vodka. Soon he heard luffy come home smiling.

"Oh ace I thought you had work?" luffy smiled as he ran over and hugged his brother. Ace smiled and through the liquor bottles under the couch. Luffy then told his brother excitedly about the date he had tomorrow. Ace just sat in listened about this boy luffy seemed to be in love with.

Luffy talked all about this Trafalgar law boy. Luffy told ace how he confessed his love to luffy and how he wanted to be a doctor. Ace just smiled as he listened. For some reason ace was happy that luffy felt loved by someone else other than ace. Ace was simply happy luffy was happy.

"But don't worry! Now that I was law you can move on and have a relationship with someone better suited for you like shanks." luffy smiled innocently at the smiling ace.

"Ya...hey luffy I think it’s time I told you everything..." and so ace did.

About the first time shanks slept with him all the way to getting drunk, and what hurt him the most, he also told him about how he felt the entire time. Luffy cried in his brothers arms. Luffy felt torn that ace was through so much. All for him. The money, safety, the making him happy. Ace put up with so much trying to keep luffy happy and safe. Luffy then confessed that he heard everything in smoker’s office and how he and shanks talked when he told luffy about the man. Once all the talking was done luffy and ace hugged each other quietly on the couch just trying to comfort each other letting everything that was said set in.

~with shanks and mihawk at shanks house~

" BASTARD!" shanks threw a shot glass at mihawk standing in the living room. Shanks was on his knees.

"This couldn't have been the easiest way to do this! I mean..." shanks was cut off by mihawk.

"You know as well as I know that everything will work out. Just as long as he loves that brother of his." mihawk walked over to shanks and grabbed him by the back off his shirt. Mihawk threw the drunken man on the couch and pinned him down.

"Besides...I find it hard to believe the play boy shanks can be this vulnerable." mihawk kissed shank. He traced his lips with his tongue and slowly kissed him all the way down to his neck.

"If this is what you’re after I hope that plan of yours isn't a lie!" shanks glared at him eyes clearly drunk.

"No. the plan is full proof. Ace will be a good brother and act accordingly." mihawk then continued to play with shanks body till the next morning when shanks could hardly remember where he was.
