(Ace x Male Reader)

You lied on his chest. Drawing circles on his chest. You looked to Ace who had fallen asleep towards the end of your. Session.
His snores halted as he snapped his eyes open and looked to you. Ace groaned rubbing his face. You chuckled cupping his cheek and kissed him softly.

"I'm sorry. Ugh it's-"

"Relax. It's rare. So don't worry about it. I'll just finish for the both of us okay." You winked.

He chuckled kissing you softly.

You and Ace had been together since he joined the crew. You were the first person he opened up to. And. You both fell in love.

But. You both held a secret.

"Hey (Y/N) I wanna talk to you about something." Ace sighed.

"No your not breaking up with me." You chuckled.

"No not that. I wanna tell you about where I came from."

You smiled rested on his chest as he went on about Luffy. And Dadan, and his passed brother Sabo. He told you about the little island he grew up on and all the trouble he caused. He even went on about his gramps Garp.

"Well I mean he's not really my grandpa." Ace chuckled.

You chuckled with him too. His smile soon faded as he ran a hand through your hair.

"But. My father is Gol D. Roger."

You laughed rolling onto your back beside him. You turned to him as he looked serious.

"Wait are you serious?" You asked.

"I wish I was joking."

You gave a soft oh before climbing out of bed. Ace sat up on his elbows and frowned.

"Oi where are you going?"

You chuckled turning to him. Pulling on your clothes.

"I have my own room to get back to." You hummed.

"Your not gonna stay with me tonight?" He whined.

"Ace. Marco would have your head."

"But."

You stepped up to him and kissed him softly. Then stepped out of the room. Ace sighed with a smile and flopped back against the bed.
While you slumped against your door and cried softly.

Ace weaved through his brothers looking for you. He held a small shell like box in his hand. Cause it was time to make you his. But. He couldn't find your face in his sea of brothers.

"Hey Marco?" Ace called.

He turned to Ace holding a clipboard and put it on his hip.

"What is it Ace? I'm busy." He grunted.

"Have you seen (Y/N)? I need to talk to him."

Marco blinked in surprise. He figured you were with him. Yet alone being alone somewhere.

"I'll keep an eye out for him. Don't worry I'm sure he just over slept or went to get something for Pops."

Ace grinned patting his shoulder. Marco watched him slip the box into his pocket and step away. He frowned turning to the doors to below deck. Marco hopped down and headed down. His eyes narrowed to your door and stepped closer.

He knocked softly on the door. Before pressing his ear to the door.

"Yoi it's me."

After a minute the door opened slightly. Marco stepped back to see you hiding in the darkness of your room.

"I'm fine. Don't worry the others."

Then slammed the door shut. Marco frowned.

"Oi oi! Open the door (Y/N)! What the hell are you doing hiding in your room!" He hissed.

He huffed crossing his arms but you didn't respond. Marco sighed and leaned against the door.

"Does it have to do with Ace? I don't care if you see him I know you two sneak off at night. Ace is a strong man who-"

"Just. Go Marco."

He sighed knowing he tried. So he stepped away to do his morning routines.

But it has been days since anyone had seen you. Marco knew about Thatch giving you your dinners at your room. But. Why were you locked away?

"Pops." Marco called.

Whitebeard perked up to Marco fluttering into his palm. He perched himself there as his flames disappeared.

"(Y/N) is barricading himself in his room." Marco said.

"Do you know why?"

"I don't but. Ace might. Could you talk to him?"

"Thank you my son."

He set Marco down. And that night Ace met Whitebeard in his room. He sat on the corner of his bed resting on the palms of his hands.

"Hey pops I-"

"My son has barricaded himself in his room. A little bird has told me you might know why." Whitebeard asked

"Marco." Ace hissed.

"Ace. Why is (Y/N) in his room?" He grunted.

"Well. I told him who I was. He seemed okay that I was Roger's son."

"Ah. I see. Well. That is my fault. Roger is my enemy and the stories I told (Y/N) about how I hated him. I guess. He doesn't want to betray his father."

"Why should that matter? It's not like your his real dad." Ace chuckled.

"I am."

Ace pursed his lips and clutched the sheets of his bed. Whitebeard cocked a brow to this and gave a small chuckle.

"Ace. You love my son don't you?"

"Maybe a little."

"Lemme see what you have in your pocket."

"HOW DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT?!" Ace snapped to him.

"Don't lie to me boy."

Ace grumbled shoving his hand in his pocket. He pulled out the shell shaped box and opened it. Whitebeard held the small box in his hand.

"I love him with all my heart." Ace grunted.

Whitebeard chuckled handing back the box.

"Tomorrow. I will have a talk with my son."

Keeping his vow. Whitebeard was able to get Vista and Thatch to drag you out onto the deck. Then flopped you down onto the deck.

"(Y/N)!" Whitebeard grunted.

"Hey pops." You sighed.

"It's been brought to my attention that you've been locked in your room. Because you feel like a traitor to me."

Tears formed in your eyes as you hung your head.

"Ace is not Roger. As you are not me. I blame Roger for his stupid decisions. Not Ace. Ace is not an enemy and I bless your relationship."

You perked up to him then turned to Ace. Grinning you stood as the two of you and embraced. Ace pulled back a hair away from your face.

"Marry me, whadda say?" He grinned.

"What?" You chuckled.

"Be my partner and crime and save me from the ocean."

"Alright, I'll marry your narcoleptic ass." You chuckled.

He grinned kissing you. The crew wolf whistled and hollered.

"This calls for a party!" Teach howled.

The two of you pulled back and grinned. You leaned over Ace's ear.

"Meet me in your room in ten minutes. I think some, makeup sex. Is in order." You purred.

Ace rumbled as you stepped away to mingle in the sea of your brothers.

"Well, look at that. My son and your son Roger. An overdue alliance you old codger." Whitebeard muttered with a smile.
