A love story on the seas (Eustass Kid x OC)

Stolen kiss.

POV: Mey.

Run away. It was the only way to escape the mad captain who was chasing me ...

"What have you done yet !?" I was running so fast that I could barely see Wire in the hallway.

"Wire my friend save me!" Without another word I hide myself behind the man and started to pull him back. Fortunately we were right outside the weapon room.

"What do you want to do ?"

"Tell me when the way is free!"

"And why..."

"Please ..." I said, making my puppy eyes.

"You will cause our loss, you know that?" Without another word we entered the room, I hid in a crate of arms while Wire pretended to train. I heard the captain's heavy steps, stop just outside the door.

"Wire, have you seen Mey?"

"... She was running." Damn it ! You couldn't be more convincing Wire!

"And where was she going ?"

"I think I saw her ... Go to your room ..."

"Oh really ?" Oh no ... I don't like that tone.

"And how could you have seen her when you were here with the door closed?" The room had been silent for a few moments before I felt something shiver under me. The chest where I had hidden began to shake more and more until it opened and the weapons catch me in a awkward metallic hand of the captain.

"Hello..."

"Looks like I found a vermin in our things ..."

"A VERMIN !?"

"Okay ... I'll leave you ..." Wire walked out of the room muttering words I preferred not to hear.

I expected everything now, we were alone in a room, he could do whatever he wanted with me. I closed my eyes when I felt his hand start moving again, my feet touched the ground again and his warm breath passed over my face.

"Kid?" I opened my eyes, he seemed to contradict himself.

Come on Mey ... Take your courage in both hands, we need to talk about what happened this morning ...

My heart was beating so hard that it was surprising that he couldn't hear it. I separated the gap that separated his body from mine, my chest was glued to his chest, I felt so safe by his side.

"Kid ... About this morning."

"No it's good. You were right."

"This ... that's not what I meant ..." He grabbed my arms, tenderly and lifted my chin to look at my eyes.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"How ?"

"Like you see something that I don't see in me?"

"Maybe ... It's the first time someone really see you ?" His gaze narrowed.

"Don't do that." He walked away from me, and turned my back on me again.

"Why? Why don't you want someone to see who is behind the cruel and terrifying Captain Kid?" He hit the wall next to me before facing me. I never took my eyes off him, he knew I was right and I was not going to run away.

"Because I have to be feared and respected by anyone who cross my path. No one will laugh at us more when they see that I have become the king of pirates!"

"Is ... Becoming the pirate king the most important thing? Is it the power you're looking for?" The streak of a smile appeared on his face.

"No, it's not power. But to bring down those who always believed themselves to be the strongest. When I find the One Piece, the world will be free from all those who wanted to bring us to our knees ..." There was something in his voice ... He was sure of himself, I had no doubt that he would do everything in his power to achieve his goal.
