How did we end up like this?

All he was meant to be was a weapon. 

Your nails dig into Kid's damp skin as your legs tightly wrap around his waist, pleasure fogging your mind and desperate moans of pleasure escaping your lips.

Your half-lidded eyes barely taking in the smug grin on the handsome redhead's face as he toys with your much smaller body.  

You were using him.

He was just there to make Ace jealous after the raven had broken up with you, but that was fine because Kid was also using you, he wanted to make his ex-girlfriend hurt after she left him.

It was a mutual understanding. 

There was to be no real feelings involved. 

Well, that was the plan anyway.

Your back arching as your climax hits, a jolt of pleasure shooting through your core as an uncontrollable squeal erupts from your throat, you can feel the redhead releasing inside you but you're far too dazed to even care by this point.

He feels too damn good. 

Your breaths ragged and eyes still blurred as they stare up at the ceiling, a small fluttery feeling tingling inside your chest as Kid slumps against you briefly, his nose softly brushing your cheek as he attempts to regain his strength, he definitely went all out on you tonight - likely because he wanted everyone enjoying the party downstairs to hear. Ace included.

A dark chuckle rumbling in his throat as he rolls his tongue along your cheekbone, his voice laced with playful spite as he murmurs in your ear; "You're not at all bad, [F/n]. For a rebound."

Yes, no feelings involved.

Then why does that word hurt so much?

"Sh-Shut up...Eustass..." You tiredly huff between breathes, swatting him against the chest but judging by his lack of reaction, you'd wager he barely felt it. 

"Heh." The man doesn't seem to care much for your short response, lazily sitting himself up and scooting over to the edge of the bed before reaching for his clothes, seemingly finished with you for the night. God, you hate this part. 

The proposal he made sounded so good at the time, getting revenge and having fun at the same time...admittedly, you were drunk when you made this pact with Eustass Kid but you still loved the idea. 

"It's such a shitty thing he did, the way he said goodbye. You can take it out on me if you like, fuck away the pain, erase him from your brain." 

The local badboy, the fiery-tempered asshole that every girl wanted a piece of, but he wanted you. 

Because you knew the pain he felt better than anyone else, I guess you fooled yourself into thinking it could be more than just a fling. 

"You hate the way Portgas fooled around behind your back? A slave to him, but not with me, no strings attached."

Yes, Eustass had a devilishly good argument.

"You'll be pleased to know that you may not need to do this shit anymore." The redhead voices, drawing your attention once again as a curious hum rumbles in your throat. "I think she wants me back." What?!  "Besides, I saw Portgas staring at you before we came up here. I think we've finally achieved our goals."

Our goals?! But my goal has changed! But...has his? 

All he wanted was to hurt his ex-girlfriend, but now she wants him back, he has no more reason to harm her. So...you've outgrown your usefulness to him.

You can't quite find the words your looking for, instead all you can do is watch him get dressed in complete silence. Your eyes must surely be the size of whale pools, your mouth hanging ajar and your heart feeling as if it's being squeezed within your chest. 

"What..." The word comes out as a mere whisper but it seems to interest Kid nonetheless, the male glancing back at you with those amber orbs and waiting for you to elaborate but you just can't seem to bring yourself to do so. 

"Huh? Why are you lookin' at me like that?" 

And just like that, you burst. "Wh-What if my goals aren't the same as yours? Did you even consider that?! You think I'm only interested in being a fuckbuddy? WHAT THE FUCK, EUSTASS?!" Your voice is practically just sobs by this point, one hand pulling the duvet up over your bare chest whilst the other is balled into a fist, pounding into the redhead's chest but he doesn't seem too phased...no, more confused, if anything.

"What the fuck are you talking about, woman?!" 

"I don't want to get back with Ace, I want what we have!" You silently curse yourself as you feel a couple of tears rolling down your cheeks, your hand grasping at the redhead's shirt desperately as you attempt to recollect yourself, failing miserably in the process. "Why would I want to get back with him when you've been so good to me?!"

It is true, in attempts to keep up the ruse, he attended so many parties and events with you. There was a carnival in town and he took you there, you saw so many people you knew and you both got photographed together, he took you to parties and always stayed by your side - even going as far as to scare other guys away if they spoke to you for too long. There's photos online of you sitting on his lap at these parties and making out. 

This was in heinsight, an awful idea. Of course you would get attached. 

You just thought it would at least be mutual. 

The final revenge was carried out in this room, on Ace's bed, during a party that you were invited to but Kid wasn't. You took him as your plus one and Luffy was luckily the one who answered the door, he didn't care about relationship issues between you and Ace, besides he likes Kid so the redhead was more than welcome.

Sabo frowned at Kid once or twice and Ace coldly stared but nobody said anything, you were to have sex in Ace's bed and then your revenge would be done but in reality, your revenge was over the second you started falling for Kid. 

You should have told him that.

"You knew what this was, we were never serious." Kid coldly points out but you can't quite miss the slight look of worry in his eyes, he's an asshole sure, but he cares about you to some extent. You can see it. 

"Please--"

"Let go." He speaks over you, watching as your hands helplessly drop from his shirt and into your lap, your entire body feeling as if it were in the process of shutting down - you feel sick, crushed and embarrassed all at the same time - like your world had just come crashing down for a second time.

Except, despite the fact that you were with Ace for 2 years, this pain somehow feels worse. 

It hurts far more than Ace ever did. Why? 

You can feel that Eustass's eyes are fixated on you but you dare not look back at him, your head still reeling as you weakly attempt to grab ahold of yourself, trying your best to hold in your sobs as your hands timidly wipe away your tears, although several more just take their place.

Please stop crying in front of him, you look pathetic enough!

A sigh sounds just as Kid finally begins to speak again, his pale hand reaching out and roughly grabbing your jaw, forcing you to look him in the eyes. "You're a real pain in my ass, you know that?" He bluntly states, not even attempting to hide his wild smile though. "Get dressed, I'll look pretty stupid if I'm standing around by myself down there." 

 "Huh?" You honestly have at least 50 more questions but that one simple word is all you could muster through your crying, the redhead brusquely rubbing the wet skin below your eyes with his fingers, lazily attempting to dry your tears. 

"I was fucking with you, I'm not really getting back with Bonney. I just wanted to see if you'd give a shit." The redhead boldly states, a deep pout etching itself into his features as more tears roll down your cheeks, the male swiftly drying them with his thumbs. "And stop crying! People will think I've assaulted you!"

"You were...fucking with me? Why didn't you just ask me h-how I felt?" 

"I don't fuckin' know! Why didn't you tell me you liked dating me?!"

"I didn't..." Taking one last attempt at recollecting yourself, you inhale a deep breath, blinking away the tears a couple of times before finding the guts to finally finish your sentence. "I didn't think you'd want me." 

Your answer causes the brute to huff but he doesn't argue much, instead just rolling his amber eyes before mumbling under his breath; 

"I wouldn't have had sex with you if I didn't want you, dumbass!"
