⠀⠀꒰ 🍨 ꒱ notes: based on that one audio i heard from somewhere—and, hey lmao. still remember me? oh well, here's something after months of absence. 🤷‍♀️

your husband, zoro, was heavily injured after fighting enemies off when they attacked—and you, his wife, is beside him on the bed he's resting on, and your hand was gently stroking his hair, down to his cheeks, and then his chest.

“my wife...” zoro began, letting out a groan as he attempted to push your hand away from his chest, but having not much energy to do so.

“my wife, she'll get upset if.. if she sees you touching me like that, especially there on my chest..” he says as he looked down at his chest that you're stroking, a small frown on his face, obviously still under the drug chopper gave him. “don't touch me.. you're not my wife...”

“but zoro,” you whined, sighing as you smiled at him, still caressing his chest in that same gentle and loving manner, almost laughing at zoro's words.

“i am your wife...” you whispered, chuckling and smiling at zoro and his reaction—but he didn't reply just yet, just staring at you with his cheeks slightly dusted red, his heart rate noticeably increasing in the background.

“oh,” he gasped, looking at you with his eyes slightly wide as of a deer in headlights, cheeks flushed as he wore a soft smile on his face, also chuckling as he held your hand, a contented sigh leaving his lips. “right.. my wife. you are my wife. y/n.”

Headcanons + One Shot: Crush {R.Z}

Scenarios/Headcanons + One Shot: What Zoro is like when he has a crush on you

Pairing: OPLA Roronoa Zoro x Gn!Reader

Warnings: N/A

Words: 1.5k (Headcanons ~400 ; One Shot 1.1k)

Zoro is well aware of his feelings, BUT he does not portray them in the way he thinks he does.

When he realized he had feelings for you, and that they were not going to go away anytime soon, he decided to embrace them.

You noticed a slight change in his behavior towards you.

He would talk to you more often, listen to you more closely than before.

He could compliment or encourage you more often, even if it was in a 'Zoro' kind of way.

'Hey at least you didn't fall off the ship this time.' 'Good job, next time you might actually succeed.' 'That was an improvement from last time at least.'

Though you noticed the way he changed, you were not aware it was because he had feelings for you. You assumed he had just accepted you as a friend.

Not that you were complaining, you weren't. You had a crush on the green haired swordsman from the beginning.

So any improvement was great.

In Zoro's mind, the meaning behind his actions were obvious.

So when you did not reciprocate, or seem to acknowledge them, he was afraid you did not feel the same.

His nonchalant behavior, slowly became more desperate.

Especially when you seemed to be growing closer to Sanji.

Zoro hated the idea of not receiving your affections, but not receiving them because of him, almost infuriated him.

And just as quickly as Zoro acted more friendly towards you, he was suddenly more withdrawn, though, you noticed the way he would silently hang round you.

Now you were even more confused.

There were no more compliments, no more casual conversations. But he always went with you wherever you went.

If you split up on an island, he would go with you. If you were hanging out in the kitchen with Sanji, Zoro would be sitting at the table, often glaring at Sanji, though this was no different than before. During a fight Zoro would remain close to your side.

His behavior constantly threw you through a loop and you weren't sure what to do about it.

"So what did you do to Zoro this time?" You asked Sanji as you leaned against the railing of the ship.

Sanji huffed as he reeled in his fishing line.

You glanced over to Zoro, who was lying on the railing of the ship across from you, his eyes glaring at Sanji as if he was trying to push him into the water with just his mind.

"I don't think it's me who did something."

You gave him a quizzical stare and he smirked. You pointed at yourself "Me?"

He nodded as he chuckled. "He only glares at me like that when you are around. Otherwise he usually leaves me alone."

You furrowed your brow as you looked back over at Zoro, catching him looking away like he had been caught.

"I don't get it, what does he think is happening?"

"Maybe he thinks I am harassing you. He does seem particularly protective over you."

It was your turn to laugh. "Protective of me? Zoro?"

Sanji nodded with a wide smile, "Don't tell me you didn't notice how he follows you around everywhere."

"Wh- well yeah but...I didn't really think much of it I guess."

"Well you should start."

Sanji's words lingered with you throughout the day, and more and more, you noticed Zoro's attention on you. You had noticed it before, but never to its actual extent.

Even though he had withdrawn from talking to you as much, his eyes followed you everywhere, and he was always within earshot of you. Anywhere you looked, he was nearby, napping, drinking, sharpening his swords, lounging.

And now, as you were fixing a tear in one of the sails, he was lying about ten feet away, appearing as though he was asleep, though you knew better now.

Distracted by your gaze on him, you let out a hiss as you stabbed yourself with your needle. Zoro's eyes shot open at the sound as he looked over at you.

As you looked at the small hole in your finger, a shadow crossed over you. Looking up you saw Zoro staring down at you and your heart skipped a beat.

Crouching down, Zoro took your hand as he looked at your finger. Butterflies swirled through your stomach, "It's just a small poke."

Zoro looked up and met your eyes, "You should still be careful."

You nodded silently, your eyes locked with his. Clearing his throat, he let go of your hand and rose to leave.

"Zoro."

He stopped in his tracks before looking back down at you. Your gaze made his heart flip.

"Did I do something?"

He frowned as he looked down at you, wracking his own brain to understand what you meant.

"What?"

You swallowed nervously, "Well, before, you were so talkative to me, and nice, and then suddenly you stopped. I was just wondering if I did something."

Zoro hadn't realized you noticed he withdrew from you and guilt washed over him. "You didn't do anything."

"Then why? I thought we had finally gotten closer."

He let out a soft sigh before he stepped forward and knelt back down in front of you. He tilted his head to the side as he gazed at you, making your ears and neck grow hot.

"I-" as he hesitated, uncertain of what to say, you gaze patiently at him, only making him feel more nervous.

He let out a sigh as he hung his head, "I don't know what to say."

You smiled softly, "You've never really been good with words. So let me help."

Looking up, his heart flipped at the sight of the soft smile on your lips.

"You started treating me differently, more friendly than before. Then, all of a sudden you stopped. Yet you still seem to always be around me."

The more you spoke, the more unevenly his heart raced.

"And, any time I'm with Sanji, you look as though you could throw him overboard. Though, that is not entirely out of character, it seems to be for a different reason then usual."

Zoro swallowed nervously as he looked around, glad it was still just the two of you on deck.

"Zoro."

His eyes shot back to yours and he could see you repressing a smile.

"Why is it so hard to tell me you like me?"

Zoro seemed to freeze for a moment as he took in your words. Why was it so hard? You obviously figured it out, and you didn't seem to be repulsed by it. So, would it be okay?

"I- I don't know."

His comment was an admittance in itself and your heart raced painfully fast. You bit the inside of your lip, waiting for him to say more, hoping he would.

"I've never felt this before."

You saw the way he was wringing his hands nervously.

"This?"

He let out a soft sigh, you really weren't gonna give up till he said it clearly huh? His lips curled as he met your eyes again.

"When I see you my heart races, quicker, more painful than even when I'm in the middle of a fight. My hands get sweaty, I forget my words. When you enter the room I feel my breath vanish, and when you leave the room I feel the overwhelming urge to follow you. I want to be around you all the time, I want to watch over you, protect you, keep you safe and sound. I want to see you smile and hear you laugh, and I want to be the cause of it. I want-"

Realizing the bright look in your eyes and the way you were repressing a grin, his chest tightened and a smile spread across his own face.

He let out a soft sigh. "I want to keep feeling these things. They scared me at first, but I want to keep feeling them. I want this. I want-... I want you."

Allowing the grin you had been repressing to stretch across your face your eyes were shining with excitement and emotion. "If you were feeling all of those things why did you distance yourself?"

He sighed, "You seemed to be getting close to the waiter."

You giggled softly, "We're friends, crew-mates, but I don't have feelings for him if that's what you were worried about."

"You don't?" You shook your head, "Any?"

You shook your head again with a soft chuckle, "None at all. Any feelings like that are reserved for someone else."

Zoro swallowed as he cleared his throat. "Anyone I know?"

"You might! Tall, swordsman, green hair, quiet, not great with words or emotions."

Zoro chuckled, "Sounds like a catch."

"I think so."

Zoro moved closer to you, his eyes scanning your face, "And if this guy finally get's his head out of his ass and asks you out?"

You grinned at him, "Then I would gladly say yes."

"Well it's a good thing he has then."

"Yes, it is."

xx End xx

Kind of an odd ending, but whatever lol its my first time writing anything on this blog for a while.

“Mon dieu…”

The breathless whimper that left Sanji would’ve been inaudible, had they not been greedily soaking up every single noise that escaped his kiss-swollen lips. Pulling back just half an inch, they looked at him through their eyelashes, trembling with effort and loaded emotions as they did.

He looked perfectly ravished, with hooded eyes and mussed tresses of blonde hair. The faint dusting of freckles of his was almost invisible underneath the blush on his flaming cheeks. His glossy lips were parted, breathing out heavy puffs of air as his chest heaved with the exertion. It was true that he always made it a point to say just how badly they’d ruined him, but seeing the results of said ruination always had pleasure shooting down their spine.

Maybe he’d gotten a little greedier over time, because now his hands were desperately clinging to the fat of their hips, tugging them even closer to him. “Easy there,” they languidly chuckled against his mouth, a sound he quickly swallowed into another open-mouthed kiss, kneading their soft skin as he did. Their teasing was all for naught, as they both knew that more was what they truly wanted.

Time was a concept lost to them. After all, this had all started when Sanji had called them to the aquarium bar, with the excuse of wanting them to taste-test a new mocktail he’d made while staying up at night. Since it was alcohol-free, they couldn’t really blame their impulsiveness on intoxication. In fact, even the mocktail was mostly untouched on the countertop, long-forgotten.

But really, were either of them surprised? When it came to their little midnight rendezvous, they never knew if it was going to be ten minutes or a few hours lost in each other’s eyes and entwined with each other’s bodies. Sanji was all lithe muscle and sharp edges and rough stubble, but he somehow carried all the world’s softness and warmth in him. It was no wonder they could barely think of anything else when tangled together.

His tongue was warm sliding against theirs, and his chest was solid underneath their palms. The lingering scent of cigarettes, musky perfume, and expensive aftershave chased after him. Every kiss felt like it would consume them whole; burn them alive down to the tips of their fingers and burrow deep into their chest. Every time their mouths met in a searing chase, he’d push up into their core, their back arching a little despite themself.

It took all the mental fortitude and strength they had to pull away with a gasp, earning a groan from Sanji who looked desperate enough to keen. “You’re cruel,” he somehow managed to whine out, “Mon amour, I’ve not yet had my fill of you—“

Pressing a single index finger to his lips was all it took to silence him. Perhaps as a sort of punishment, they even leaned in to nip at his jutted lower lip, teasing his pout. “Just a second,” they promised him, clambering off his lap before he could protest too much. “I promise I have a surprise for you.”

Smothering a laugh behind their hand knowing the disheveled state they’d left him in, clothes all messed up and so clearly aching for them that he couldn’t even bother to adjust himself, they pranced away to their room to get the box they’d hidden in their set of drawers.

It had been a hassle hiding it from any possible interlopers. After all, you never knew when Nami was about to sell off half their possessions for more cash, or if Luffy was feeling particularly curious that day and wondered if it would sink in the ocean, consequently jumping after it and nearly drowning.

At the very least, they were glad that they had the chance to get back to their sweet man, a forlorn look on his flushed face from having waited for them (what was, in his opinion) for too long. That needy expression of his could melt them with uncontrollable need. They just wish he’d never ever come to know that, or else he’d become insufferable.

Settled back in his lap, Sanji was all too eager to have them ontop of him, a curious look now on his face. “What’ve you got behind your back, my love?”

“A little gift,” they vaguely said, before thinking for a few moments. “You know how you like to wear rings?”

“Not when I’m cooking, but generally speaking, yes.” He hummed, eyes lighting up as he tried to take a peek behind them. “Oh, you really shouldn’t have, ma chéri—“

Interrupting his little rant with a kiss, that shut him up enough for them to wag a finger at him. “I’m not finished yet, you impatient man.” At that, they shifted a little in his lap. “I’d noticed that you always kept your ring finger bare. Knowing you as well as I believe I do, I think I know why that is.” Carefully, as steadily as they could manage, they pulled that small box from behind their back, popping it open with one hand while the other rested over his shirt. “But would you consider changing that now?”

A choked gasp left Sanji’s parted lips, and his eyes had turned large and glassy. The sparkling ring set into the velvet was not just impossibly gorgeous, but looked ludicrously expensive as well. He was certainly taken aback, though they hoped that it was because of him having not seen this somewhat-impromptu proposal coming, and not as a precedent to being rejected.

All that he could do was stumble over his words, his thoughts getting all jumbled up and his heart pounding furiously against their palm. “Is this… are you asking me to—?”

“Marry me, Sanji, yes.” Their laugh came out a little strained, nerves finally getting to them a little. “If you’ll have me.”

“You say this as if I’m not currently and always painfully wanting you,” he breathed out, briefly closing his eyes, before tugging them into his chest. Collapsing against him, they pretended not to know the reason why he’d hid his face into their neck, and pretended not to notice his half-sniffles. “Yes. Fuck, of course, yes.”

“That’s settled then,” they quietly said, surprised to find a lump in their throat themself. All they could do was just squeeze him back twice as tightly, their hands patting his back fondly as the embrace filled every single nook and cranny in their heart with love.

And if they happened to waste a few more hours holding each other so tight lest they break, locking the door to the aquarium bar behind them as they shared tender touches and pleasured sighs that were lost to the quiet night, then no one was to blame.

Bliss & Care

Pairing:  Sanji x Fem Reader

First time writing for Sanji so I hope I did well!

Summary: Training with Zoro ends up leaving the reader sore from the intense session and when Sanji comes to check on the reader, he learns that she needs some care and then some…

Warnings: SMUT! (18+ ONLY! MINORS & AGELESS BLOGS DNI! YOU WILL BE BLOCKED!) Foreplay, Pet Names (Dear, princess, love, Angel) oral F receiving, slight swearing, praise

“Urgh, damn it!”

Trying to build up some strength by training with Zoro ended up being a regret. I was so sore that I could barely tolerate it.

I thought a hot bath would help loosen and relax my tense muscles, but it didn’t make much of a difference.

Sitting in bed, only in a robe, I was trying to rub my back, not hearing outside the door:

“Y/N! My dear! I brought you a snack! I’m sure you need it after your workout!”

“Shit!” Getting a sharp pain and letting out a loud yelp, Sanji came running through the door concerned:

“Are you okay, my dear?!”

Turning and noticing him, I was pouting at the pain in my shoulders and back:

“Zoro trains like a maniac and now I’m super sore. My back hurts like hell.”

“Damn that Moss head, hurting my princess,” He puffed, sitting the dish tray down on my dresser, “Maybe a good massage would help? I hate to see you in pain.”

He was being his lovesick self again, heart eyes and jaw about on the floor as I lowered my robe to expose my back, asking kindly as I was desperate for relief:

“Please? Only if you don’t mind.”

“Of course I don’t mind!” He squealed, jumping and sitting behind my back, starting at my shoulders and the first deep rub from his fingertips had my head dropping back.

“Thank you so much,” I whined, the pain hitting then fading away as he hit all the right spots, slowly working down my back.

“No need to thank me, love,” He cooed, taking his time in a rough spot that had me whining again, moaning at the relief I felt after:

“Shit, that’s good.”

Suddenly, he grew quiet and with my eyes closed, I rested back against his chest while he massaged my shoulders again, opening an eye when I felt something poking my lower back, seeing him staring over my shoulder at my breasts that was nearly exposed.

“Sorry,” He chuckled nervously, nearly in a drool as he kept admiring me, “You’re just so beautiful.”

“It’s okay,” I blushed, heating up at his wondering hands, whispering in my ear:

“I can’t help but want to hear you making those angelic noises.”

He worked magic and made my pain disappeared like nothing happened, grateful and turned on as well, offering:

“Why don’t you keep making me feel good then? You’ll surely hear those angelic noises.”

Since he had the green light, he didn’t hesitate to fight any temptations, untying my robe and cupping my breasts with a squeeze.

“So beautiful,” Brushing my robe to the side and revealing my nudeness, I’d never seen his face so red, giggling at it till I moaned at the kiss he left at my neck.

Soft and tender, one hand kept fondling my breasts while the other crept between my thighs, effortlessly finding my clit, instantly making me melt against him with my moans growing.

“I know you trained hard today; I’ll take care of Moss-Head for that later, but now? You just lay back and relax, Angel.”

Gently laying me back, I gladly did as so, breathing in deep as his lips found my nipple, his hums already filled with so much bliss as he sucked a little, hands rubbing my thighs and gripping tighter as his sucks grew a little harder.

A swift swirl of his tongue around my nipple over, not realizing how sensitized they were till he flicked over them softly, watching how my head dipped back into the bed and my body squirm.

“Relaaax,” Massaging my sides and leading his kisses downward, his head nudged my leg and spread them open, lips tenderly finding my inner thighs, “I promise I’m going to take good care of you.”

“Sooo good, Sanji,” I praised, shaking at the wet kisses along my thighs, my chest heaved with a gasp as his tongue dragged through my folds, “Sanji!”

“Fuck,” He breathed in, kissing my clit and quickly getting lost in the bliss we were both feeling, “Delicious you are, angel.”

Burying his head between my legs, his hot breath fanning over my clit while licking up every drop of my slick had my thighs closing his head in, his hands pressing them harder against him as his tongue pushed inside me, upward flicks making me squirm more than before.

I only grew more soaked and wet, my gasps and whines making him glance up till my hand ran through his hair, begging;

“Please keep going, Sanji? I’m close!”

“Don’t need to ask, dear,” He chuckled, licking up through my folds, tongue swirling around my clit before sucking, gently adding a finger and pumping softly but hitting deep to get me closer.

His eyes didn’t leave my body, burning every move and noise I made into his memory to last forever, high pitched gasps from above making focus more on the work of his tongue, gasping and opening his mouth wide with a kiss, a satisfied groan intensifying my orgasm as I kept his head buried with my hand:

“Yes, Sanji! Ngh, that’s; Ah, ah!”

“You taste so so good,” He smiled while lapping up my slick, kissing over my folds, massaging away the shakes I still had, “You feel better, yeah?”

“Never felt this good,” I panted softly, trying to regain my breath, tired but smiling down at him, “Always taking such good care of me.”

“Always,” He smiled back, coming up to kiss my cheek, “I will always give you the best, my dear angel.”

obsession ; black leg sanji

↻ stalking, established relationship, umm... its unsettling?, a bit violence?, grammatical error

↻ pairing ↬ sanji x fem!reader!

a/n i like the idea of sanji being overly obsessed with his lover. also havent write anything in a long time and i got an idea from reading the book "the obsession"

the day that you had met sanji was the day that your life brightens. you had just broken up with your boyfriend that day and got kicked out of the apartment that you had bought.

and you were practically disowned by your family for dating your now ex-boyfriend.

it was a rainy day. you had sat patiently under the bus stop, not particularly waiting for a bus to show up but just for a shelter. you hadn't managed to actually get anything. just your personal belongings and a few bunch of clothes. it was the day that sanji had met you and fell for you.

he was a chef. a very damn good chef. he couldn't ignore the hungry look on your face across the street. the restaurant that he was working in was just across the bus stop. how much of a destiny could any of this be?

like the gentleman he is, he get himself to cooking and packed it up in his lunch box. it was an unpaid meal like always. though his father, zeff, was too tired of telling him the same thing.

with an umbrella in hand, sanji walked acrossed the street and sat down with a good distance between you two. like a shy cat asking for attention, he slowly pushed the lunch box towards you, not saying a single word until you take notice.

"eat up. you need energy if you're going to wait for the bus in this weather. they always shows up late because of some excuses," sanji rambled on.

from afar, he hadn't got a good look on your face. but when he finally turns to get a look at you, he was baffled. you were so so ethereal in his eyes. a beauty who had just cried her eyes out possibly due to hunger. there was just no way that anyone would hurt you. there would be no way. he was sure of it.

"i'm not- not waiting for a bus," you cracked a small smiled. that made his heart skipped a beat. sanji had saved you that day. in your eyes, he was your savior.

.

sanji had made it his job that he would help you make decisions for everything. you were so dependant on him. it makes him feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

even when you were a trembling mess in front of him, scared of his very existence. he relish in your fear. "please, i just want to take a break with you," you begged, your voice coming out pathetically higher. "you know i can't do that sweetheart," he caressed your cheek. it made you flinched from the way he was doing it.

his eyes had a crazed look. you don't understand why it took you so long to realize that your boyfriend is a fucking psychopath.

his hands cupped your cheeks and he pressed his forehead against yours. "we can't do that. we're meant to be together," he smiled at you. "n-no. please, i just want a break. not a breakup," you shook your head.

"what if your feelings change? we can't have that, love," his hand trailed down to your neck.

.

you didn't mean to go through his stuff. but you were so curious of him. sanji had never told you about himself and he would always forbid you from entering that one room by the end of the hallway.

in the beginning, you didn't feel curious at all. but you had seen him going in and out of the room too many times a day that it piqued your interest. you had tried asking him what was in the room. but he just shrugged and said that it was work stuff.

it was weird since he was working as a chef. not an office worker or anything that he would need an office.

so when he went out to buy groceries, you decided to went inside the room. you knew that sanji didn't lock the door. he never did because he trusts you. or maybe he wanted you to see what was inside the room after you saw the content inside.

your eyes moved around the room quickly, scanning every picture that was hanged, every notes about your daily life. even a few notes about your personality. it was everything about you.

the room had overwhelmed you with how much... of you are in there.

you stumbled back, only to be met with sanji.

"sweetheart, didn't i tell you not to enter this room?" his hand rests on your shoulder, giving it a light squeeze.

"Did you hear? The Warlord system's been abolished."

"Of course, I've heard," He looked offended at your words, eyes darting up from the wine bottle he was holding to peer at where you sat near the fire, shrouded in blankets. "Does it make you nervous?"

"Hardly." You told him, putting your hands up to the fire, "The world government's never known what they were doing, I doubt that's changed."

He only hummed in response as he poured himself a glass, his calloused hands sliding gracefully across the white marble countertop of his bar. You watched curiously as he tipped the glass back, taking a sip of the red liquid. Everything he did always seemed so calculated, his movements always blurring together so seamlessly to form such refined motions.

"Is that all the news had to say?" He asked, coming to sit down in the velvet seat positioned to face the mantle.

You shrugged, "It's all I cared to read. Take a look, if you want." You passed him the paper that was open, and slightly crumpled, on the ground beside you.

It was silent for a moment, the only noise being from him turning the pages, which wasn't rare for this castle. Ever since Zoro left, this island has felt a tad empty, although, Mihawk hadn't agreed. He thought it was much nicer now that the brute was gone.

"Hey!" Perona shouted, shattering the silence as she floated toward the both, fear evident on her face, "The marines are here!"

You looked over at the former warlord in surprise, "I guess they're even less competent than I initially thought. They don't actually think they could beat us, do they?"

Mihawk only nodded, visibly annoyed before he went to get Yoru and head outside to deal with the island's new guests.

𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐊𝐓𝐎𝐁𝐄𝐑 𝟐𝟑 DAY 15: WEDDING NIGHT Basil Hawkins 𝘹 F! 𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘳

Requested by: @lady-winter13 ➡ Sorry I completely forgot to add the gender so let’s try again! 🙈 Could I please ask for kinktober 15. wedding night 🤍 with basil Hawkins from one piece? With female she/her. Thank you a sorry! 💗 tw: mdni. very romantic sex after the wedding. oral. penetration. mentions of pregnancy. wc: 924 𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭

Long locks grazing your face, there was nothing but him and you that night… Both have said “yes, I do”. Both have decided to start a new journey, piracy would not suffice by itself if there wasn’t a person with whom share the One Piece with. The wedding had been amazing. You all drunk, partied, ate, and had fun.

Hawkins slowly peeled you off your white dress, with delicacy and love. Something like a wedding dress should be kept safe, but your skin is what mattered to him the most.

His permanent serious frown had been replaced by soften eyes, adoring, praising, your special lingerie. The finest white lace, a sexy second skin Basil is dying to rip too.

A sweet love, but still so passionate you couldn’t wait no more. His lips reached for yours, impertinently. And melted in one lustful kiss, you slowly walked back until your shins hit the bed.

Him and you fell to the mattress, where rose petals abounded. Your husband took your arms over your head, kissing after your exposed neck. In a delicate motion, he also plastered the pleasing pain of little bites.

“I love you, my wife…” he murmured, tickling your chest with his blonde wavy locks. “I love you, my husband…” you purred, caressing his cheek with loving and protective touch.

Though having made love uncountable times, that time felt absolutely different. The ring adorning your fingers shone the brightest with the warm dancing lights of a thousand candles in that room. And the sound of the waves crashing on the shore so close to your love nest mixed perfectly well with desperate panting.

Hawkins kisses travelled the mountains of your breasts and the holly valley in between them. Down, down he reached your belly button where he stayed long enough to whispers how much he was dreaming of listening to a new heartbeat inside you.

“Soon, my love…” you murmured, trying to hold tears. It wasn’t necessarily urgent nor a reality, but how could speak louder about his love than wanting to bring new life with you?

The magician that enchanted your heart, with whom he only could let his guard down, kept lowering his kisses until your mound of Venus… he made you tremble with just breathing closely to your sex.

Slow pecks over the lace of your panties, that soon turned more and more see through… your wetness was taking over all of it. But as much as he loved how the lingerie looked on your beloved anatomy, he still preferred the natural taste of your skin.

Taking all of his time, Basil pulled your coverings down. Slowly, enjoying the graze of his hands from your hip bones to the bridge of your feet, he undressed you completely.

A kiss in your inner thigh, a bite then. You flinched, smiling. A kiss on your entrance, then the tip of his tongue on your labia. You moaned, louder this time. And from the tip to his whole mouth, devouring you so deliciously, with taste buds rejoicing on the ambrosial taste of your intimacy.

Your hands reached for his hair, grabbing a fist full of it and pulling it along with your arching back, the more he indulge in your sex.

Several times you whined his name loudly and so lustfully, and perhaps bad words you couldn’t quite remember abandoned your lips too.

Basil, whose heart he could swear was about to jump from his chest, smiled the more you quivered and tried to close your legs trapping his face in between them. If the chances of surviving to such deadly pleasure, were no more than 1%, he would have taken them without a doubt.

And the closer you were getting to climax, the more you pleaded for him to kiss your lips. You wanted him, once and for all, inside you. So deep, and for the rest of the night…

“Come here, come here please” you begged.

Basil stopped; he couldn’t say no to his magical wife’s desires.

“But my love… you haven’t finished, yet” he murmured, still touching your sex but crawling on top of you.

“I only want to finish if I have you inside of me tonight, Basil…” you said, causing that man to shake. None of his predictions could have told him how magical your wedding night had turned…

He sighed, in pure need, in pure desire. And your toes helped his black trousers to slide down his legs. Your hands, to unbutton his ruffled white shirt.

Many were the scars his battles had left on his chest, and you loved each and every single one of them. And while you waited for him to finally bury in you, you traced those scars with the tip of your index finger.

He got greedy, though, and didn’t immediately penetrate you. He played with the wetness of your femininity, mixing the sprouting honeys one with the other’s.

You were burning; he was already moaning without even going deep into you. And your heels carved on the small of his back, because you couldn’t wait no more.

“Please…” “Yes, my magic star…”

Slowly, steadily, securely, and lovingly, he let himself slide in. Both moaning at the first sensation of the intrusion. Your walls spasming, milking, getting tight around him. Him throbbing, getting harder, pushing against the pressure of your womb.

And maybe, just maybe and for the first time… his eyes filled with tears, of joy, of love… because that night had been the first of the rest of your lives living them as one… 💖

One Piece oneshot: Sleepover on the High Seas

Just a lil headcanon idea I had of the Straw Hats having sleepovers on the Thousand Sunny whenever they were out at sea heading to their next destination as well as me enjoying slapping modern stuff into fandoms I'm in. Also this is the first piece of work I've uploaded onto here, so enjoy everyone! My OC Tatsumi Mirai belongs to me while One Piece and its characters do not!

----------------------------------------------

Night had rolled around fast in the New World, the stars twinkling above in the darkened skies. The infamous vessel of the Straw Hat pirates, the Thousand Sunny, slowly drifted across the waters as the Straw Hat crew all headed to the main deck with sleeping bags and pillows. Mirai had hosted yet another sleepover for the crew to attend to, and this had been the first sleepover the crew had in ages! The first time they had one was when they still had the Going Merry and when Chopper and Nico Robin first joined. Everyone had a blast that first sleepover Mirai held, and Luffy loved it so much to the point that he wanted to do it again one night. They did while they were on their way to Water Seven, the final one they would have on the Merry before the day the crew parted with her.

Even after when they obtained the Thousand Sunny and when Franky joined as the team's shipwright, Mirai hadn't even thought of having another sleepover. Heck, not even after Thriller Bark and when Brook joined. But now, Mirai could finally host another sleepover after two full years of the crew being separated after a long time period of training. Everyone had indeed gotten stronger over the past two years, but it made her happy just to see that everyone was together again. "Yeah!! Sleepover time!!" Luffy exclaimed happily as Mirai chuckled in response. Luffy hadn't changed a bit, and that was a good thing. Heck, no one had changed at all after two years, not even Chopper's old habits.

The others were looking forward to it, not just Luffy. Nami and Robin were both excited, Zoro and Sanji didn't even fight and were happy to have some relaxation, Usopp was just as eager as ever to have some fun again, and Chopper's eyes were beaming brightly over the fact that he would get to have a chill night with his Mirai again as he held onto his own bag in his normal form while Mirai carried his pillow. She had to explain the whole point of a sleepover to Franky and Brook, since the two weren't with them when they had the previous two sleepovers, yet the two men remembered hearing Mirai ramble about one during their voyage to the Sabaody Archipelago.

Once they understood, the two men joined the others. "Can you believe it? Our first sleepover after two years!" Chopper exclaimed happily. Mirai smiled in response and replied, "You know it! This also gives me the perfect chance to improve them too now that we have a new ship! I mean, I did enjoy the two sleepovers we had on the Merry, but with the Sunny, I feel like we can spice things up a bit!" The reindeer smiled and laughed. What his student/assistant said was true, and he couldn't wait to see what she had in store this time.

Both Chopper and Mirai placed their bags side by side once they reached the main deck of the Sunny, since the two always tended to sleep together since they still shared that powerful sibling bond. In fact, Luffy had given Chopper permission to sleep with Mirai on some nights whenever he felt like it, since even though he could sleep on his own, there were some nights where he would head to the women's room so he could sleep with his assistant, since he tended to feel safer with her sometimes whenever he couldn't sleep or when he recalled a bad memory or had a bad dream. She always called Chopper her stuffed animal/cuddle buddy whenever that happened.

Everyone took the time to get situated as Mirai straightened out her pj shirt and lounge pants. In fact, her, Usopp, and Chopper were all wearing matching pjs for the night! It was a little something the three liked to do to show their friendship as a trio. Mirai walked in front of everyone as she held a notepad and pen in her hands as everyone sat on their bags and looked at Mirai. "As you may all know, this is the third official sleepover of the Straw Hat pirates, this being Franky and Brook's first one. I feel like we can spice up our sleepovers now with our new ship. See what features she has for these occasions," she explained to all of them.

Mirai began to list some things on the notepad she had with her. Card and board games, a movie to watch for the night, bringing out some snacks while telling stories of their past adventures, and finally, one of her performances. Mirai had always enjoyed entertaining the others with her powers, often performing small shows on the main deck of the Sunny as Brook played his tunes in the back(or other times both Brook and Franky playing a tune)for her to dance to. Luffy and Chopper always got amused by her shows and enjoyed them very much.

"These sound like wonderful ideas, but my question is, how would we even be able to watch a movie?" Usopp then asked when Mirai was done. It was true that they couldn't watch movies on the Merry, but was their actually a case with the Sunny? Franky smiled and pushed a button, freaking Mirai out as her wings jerked out of her back in shock. She gasped as her eyes lit up over an outdoor TV screen being rolled down. "Woah ho ho!!" Luffy exclaimed as his eyes too lit up. "An outdoor TV screen! Here!" Chopper added as his eyes lit up too. Even Usopp had the same expression as well as Robin and Nami both smiled in advance.

As for Mirai, she was speechless. She couldn't believe that Franky actually added an outdoor TV screen to the Sunny for them to watch films on. "You added one of these?!" she exclaimed as soon as she turned to see Franky, who chuckled in response. He happened to explain everything to her as the hybrid began to scan the screen from top to bottom. She looked back at him and returned the smile in advance.

Once that was done, Luffy was clutching onto his pillow like the bubbly captain that he was, exclaiming, "Come on Mirai let's start this!!" She chuckles and said, "The third official sleepover starts now!", everyone cheering in advance. Of course a card game was first on the list to do. Sanji happened to whip up some snacks for the team too while they played, even remembering to make some boneless spicy ranch chicken wings for Mirai, her favorite. She thanked Sanji for remembering as he smiled and welcomed her.

Luffy got a bit upset when Nami won the first round, but he then let off his iconic toothed grin as he chuckled, almost making Mirai laugh as well. "Again!" he exclaimed with pride. With the next round, Zoro and Sanji joined in along with Chopper playing with Mirai. He sat next to her and often peeked up from under the table or form shifted to see her cards. The hybrid would tell her sibling figure to minimize the peeking and form changing, for it could make the others suspicious.

They played for a third round(Luffy actually won the second round)before switching over to a board game Mirai happened to buy from a store they were at during their travels back in the Grand Line. It was a four player game, so everyone all took turns with Luffy being the one who stuck around the most of the rounds, sometimes annoying the others. Zoro and Sanji often argued with Luffy, but he didn't mind. He just wanted to have fun and such.

That was then all said and done, so it was time for the movie next. "So, what did you choose? I'm rather curious!" Luffy exclaimed as he walked up to Mirai's side with a smile and chuckle. Mirai happened to chuckle back, telling him to be patient. Eventually, Mirai pulled out a DVD she had in store as she stood in front of the fully rolled out outdoor TV screen. It happened to be one she watched during her travels, yet she'd been meaning to get the others to watch it as well.

Chopper was the last to leave the main room as he walked up to Mirai and form shifted to where he was around her age and height. It was the appearance of a human teenager as he called it. She smiled at him as he peeked over her shoulder, gasping at the sight of the film. "You still have that DVD?" he asked her in surprise. "Sure do! It's time we all watched it together shall we?" she replied with a smile. Chopper nodded in advance, forming a small fist as he joined the others, sitting to the left of Mirai's bag with Usopp sitting to the right.

Mirai had gotten into some Marvel movies during her travels and really wanted her friends to watch one. It was just that they didn't exactly had the time to do so and all. Now this was her big break to finally pull out one of her favorites and watch it with everyone. The Avengers happened to be the first one she watched, and she had the DVD still with her. Once she placed it in a pushed play on the menu screen, she sat in between Usopp and Chopper, both of them laughing in advance. "Looks like you made that DVD of good use now!" Usopp joked. Both Mirai and Chopper laughed in advance, still enjoying Usopp's fun loving jokes.

Luffy had to use the bathroom halfway through the film, and Nami told him what he missed afterwards as Robin chuckled in advance. Zoro couldn't help but look over at Franky and Brook, who were having a good time watching the film Mirai had put in. Chopper's eyes happened to light up at some parts of the film, and Nami and Robin could tell that Mirai's first friend was really getting into the action. Mirai looked over at Chopper and asked him if he was enjoying the movie, and he nodded in advance with a smile on his face, the moonlight hitting his reindeer nose that stayed in his human appearances.

The big climax to the film started afterwards, and everyone was actually cheering on the ship during this part of the movie. Since no one was around, they didn't drag the attention of other pirate ships or even Marines as well. Luffy was yelling at the top of his lungs and Usopp and Mirai both cheered for their favorite characters in advance. Chopper's eyes continued to light up in advance as he watched the madness happen on the screen in front of him, eventually joining into the cheering madness with the crew.

The movie ended afterwards, and everyone had calmed down, Chopper now back in his normal form as he laid on his back, gasping for air after all of the cheering he had done during the entirety of the film. "Chopper looks worn out," Usopp told Mirai. She looked over at the reindeer and laughed, seeing that Usopp has spoke the truth. After awhile, the reindeer woke up right off the gate, exclaiming, "THAT WAS SO GOOD!!" at the top of his lungs. "And he's back," Nami said to herself with a laugh.

Sanji had gotten snacks readied and prepared for everyone as they all began to tell a few stories of their past adventures, Mirai telling about the time she first met Luffy and the crew as well as the time she had helped Chopper with his Rumble Ball experiments back in the days when he was just getting started. Everyone had a fun time until they set the stage for Mirai's grand performance. Usopp acted like a stage act as he said, "And now ladies and gents, I present to you Winter Dragon Mirai and her blazing performance tonight!"

Everyone clapped as Mirai stood in the center of the ring and began to put a show on, Brook playing a tune in the back and Franky trying not to cry in advance. The sparks of flame that flared from Mirai reminded Luffy of his brother Ace, a person he still missed very dearly. Luffy and Chopper were always fascinated by Mirai's shows, not just the whole crew.

Chopper's eyes would always catch the flares from his student's pyrokinetic powers as she danced to the music. Sometimes he would remember those times the two would have a small dance together on the ship's main deck whether he was in the teenage form or in Heavy Point. Mirai soon took to the skies and doing some tricks, even flying through some rings of fire, making the crew clap.

"It's impressive seeing how Mirai can do all of this without any hassle," Robin told Nami as she nodded in advance. Zoro happened to smile, since he also enjoyed Mirai's shows. She finished it off with some "fireworks", and then landed and smiled as Brook ended the tune. The Straw Hats clapped again, Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper all hooting and hollering over Mirai's show. "Now now, hold your applause everyone! I'll be back with another show soon, so stick around!" the dragon joked with a grin across her face.

Now everyone was worn out after that. By the time the show ended, everyone was out(Luffy was the first to fall asleep). It really was a fun sleepover night, and Mirai was happy that she got to share another one with her friends after so long. Two years that is. Chopper had himself pressed up against Mirai's chest as she looked at the moonlight, smiling to herself as she turned the lights off. I'm happy everyone had fun tonight. I'm so glad I got to hold the third official Straw Hat sleepover. Here's to more in the future! her mind happily said.

Her sleeping bag was still in between Chopper and Usopp's, and she tucked Chopper into his bag and laid his head on his pillow, the reindeer smiling in his sleep as Mirai smiled back. She then got into her own bag, looking at the others who were sound asleep. Usopp mumbled something, but Mirai couldn't tell what it was as she giggled to herself. Once she tucked herself into her bag, she let sleep take over her as the beautiful and glowing expanse of the night struct both the Thousand Sunny and the waters of the New World.

⠀⠀ੈ♡˳· love is a good thing, isn't it? but, isn't too much a little too.. sickening? you know, lovesick?

⠀⠀➧ unlabeled | yandere!t. law × gn!reader | oneshot

⠀⠀➧ requests are closed until further notice!

⠀⠀➧ warnings — this fic will contain yandere themes and behaviors, dark themes, and toxic relationships. mistakes and swearing are gonna be present too ofc, so do ignore them, thanks!

⠀⠀꒰ 🍨 ꒱ notes: welcome to “lovesick!,” which is a writing special i made just because, and maybe for this valentine's season.. made crazy.

wooww... i finally decided to write a fucking oneshot after so long. welp. enjoy, i guess. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

warning ! this fic contains yandere themes, behaviors, dark themes, and will portray a toxic relationship. do not read if you find any of these warnings uncomfortable. i warned you.

It's Valentine's day.

How nice. The day of hearts. And even nicer, you received a love letter for valentine's day, along with your favorite bouquet of flowers, and...

Your lost lipbalm.

“Why is this here?” You asked yourself as you reached out for the gifts on your work desk, grabbing the lipbalm and inspecting it.

“I lost this.. Like, a few days ago. Didn't I?” You murmured, opening the lipbalm container for further inspection, and upon doing so...

Strange.

It's untouched—the amount it had when you lost it is still the same.

Well, in your eyes.

“Ah... Well, this person must've found it, and decided to return it to me. A nice person, really.” You said with a smile on your face as your eyes landed on the bouquet and chocolates on the desk, then to your lipbalm, and finally, to the letter.

“I wonder who sent these?” You asked yourself, setting the lipbalm down, and then taking the letter, opening it to see a handwritten note..

An awful handwriting, and with a rather creepy content that made the hairs on your arms stand.

I got a taste of your lips on this lipbalm that you used last Wednesday at 3:21 PM, when your lips were dry because of the AC. Sweet. Just like you :))

Reading it, you dropped the note on the floor in shock, as your lipbalm rolled down the floor, too.

Of course. It would be tainted. How naïve of you for thinking otherwise.

But before you could react any further...

A hand was placed on your shoulder, startling you and almost making you scream, if not because of the hand on your mouth, preventing you from doing so.

And looking back, you saw...

“D-Doctor.. Doctor Law.”

You stammered out, your eyes locking with his that pierced through your sould as he slowly removed his hand from your mouth, but making sure his fingertips grazed and traced your lips—almost as if remembering the shape and texture.

Remaining silent for a moment, Law's eyes scanned your figure that was pale and shaken up, before he spoke up.

“Your lips are dry,” He commented, staring at your lips that were dry and cracked.

“Why don't you apply your lipbalm?” Added Law, a barely noticeable smirk on his face as he picked up your lipbalm on the floor and then handed it to you.

“N..No, no, I'm... I'm alright, I-” You stammered out, quick to refuse to accept the lipbalm and use it as Law raised a brow, letting out a small chuckle.

“Well,” He shrugs, taking a step closer at you, making you shrink back to your seat. “I don't think those pretty little lips of yours are alright.”

“I don't want then going dry and chapped...” Law added with a sigh, before suddenly grabbing your chin and then opening the lipbalm with one hand.

“Law-” “Shh, let me.”

Unable to resist or fight back, Law applied the product on your lips as you squirmed and squirmed, trying to avoid using the tainted balm, but unfortunately, to no avail.

“There,” Law hummed, smiling in an almost eerie manner as he saw you on your seat, frozen and pale, tears loosely hanging by your eyes.

“Aw, there was no need for tears, was there?” Says the doctor with an eye roll and a click of his tongue.

“You don't understand, Law.” You murmured, wiping the tears away, but they kept forming again, until one fell after another.

“No, I definitely do.” Rolling his eyes yet again, Law huffed, tossing a document on your table before he grabbed your chin yet again, and then leaned close.. Closer, and closer... Now in a dangerously close distance to your face.

And there, you felt his lips on yours—kissing you softly with a hint of passion, desire, hunger.

“Ah.. I was right. Your lips really are sweet. Just like you.” He smirks, before he shrugged and pat your head as you sat stunned. “Now, do me a favor proofread these documents.”

Law then you to reflect and absorb what happened—as you were unable to move or speak, tears by your eyes that glanced on the document, seeing a handwritten note by the said doctor.

Take good care of those pretty little lips.

That handwriting... Is same as your gift's sender. The person who tainted your lipbalm. And that person is no other than...

Law.

Who is, undeniably, lovesick.

Yummy Fruit (. one piece .)

SUMMARY: The Straw Hats finally docked on an island to restock on items, much to Hana’s delight. On this island, as Hana and her brother are exploring, they come across an interesting-looking fruit that Hana boldly decides to eat… 

NOTE: This is a Hana Nakano centric oneshot! The devil fruit she ate is called the Rai-Rai devil fruit, meaning she can control and generate lightning and electricity (a lot like Laxus Dreyar from Fairy Tail ). She can also channel her devil fruit powers into her weaponry. Also, sorry for any potential spelling errors that I missed. I also can’t remember if I’ve posted anything in relation to Ash and the Monster Trio’s kids, but here’s the birth order; Hana, Ace, Yuna, Kaen, and then the twins Himeji and Aiji. Zoro fathers Hana, Yuna, and Kaen, Luffy fathers Ace, and Sanji fathers the twins Himeji and Aiji. I’ll make a separate post about their kids with information about them. 

WARNINGS: no warnings for this oneshot! At least, I don’t think so. Just Hana and Ace being Hana and Ace lol 😆

{~~~}

“FINALLY!” HANA SAID, RUNNING OFF OF THE DECK OF THE SHIP. 

The green-haired girl was itching for some kind of an adventure. She wanted — no, needed — something to happen. Hana begged for a catalyst to free her from her world of eternal boredom. Hana grabbed her mini-katanas and hooked them to her belt. One katana had a black guard and pommel with an electric blue blade and handle. Her other katana has a white handle, a black pommel, and a purple and black linear gradient blade, and her guard was black. Hana was chomping at the bit to get off of the Thousand Sunny. 

Hana looked over to her younger brother Ace, who was nagging about how he also desperately wanted to exude some of his energy to their Aunt Alex by pulling on her sleeve. It looks like Ace also wants off just as much as I do. She thought to herself, observing her younger brother’s behavior. 

Luckily for the kids, Hana and Ace finally got what they wanted. Ace stretched his arms above his head, letting out a relaxed sigh afterward. “Come on, Ace! Let’s go explore!” The green-haired girl exclaimed excitedly, running ahead with Ace following behind his older sister. 

“Hold it, you two!” 

Hana and Ace froze in their tracks. They both groaned in unison. “Aunt Alex!” Both children exclaimed together. 

“You two need to wait for us, alright?” The redhead explained firmly, “You need to stay with us. We don’t want you guys getting lost, or for any bad people that could possibly get their hands on you to snatch you two up.”

“But, Auntie Alex! Why would anyone want to snatch us up?” Six-year-old Hana inquired bluntly. “Especially Ace. No one would want to kidnap him.”

Ace shot his older sister a sharp glare, narrowing his dark eyes. “Hey! What’s that supposed to mean?!” The raven-haired boy questioned, the volume of his voice rising. 

“It means that you’re so annoying that the kidnappers would want to return you,” Hana elaborated in a matter-of-fact tone of voice with no hesitation. 

Four-year-old Ace then grunted in frustration, proceeding to ball up his fist and punch Hana’s right shoulder. Hana’s eyes widened, only for her brows to furrow in anger and her eyes to slant in vexation. She retaliated by also balling up her fist and hitting Ace right on the top of his head really hard. This then caused a small altercation between the two children, both of them shouting various mean things while hitting and kicking each other. “You meanie head! I’m not annoying!” Ace protested loudly. 

“To me, you’re annoying, you big jerk!” The six-year-old argued back, landing a kick on her brother’s left ankle. 

“Ow! Hana!! Stop kicking me!”

Alexandria was going to be the one to reprimand her niece and nephew, but someone else beat her to it. “Oi! You two brats better stop your fighting! It’s getting annoying!” Zoro called out sternly from the main area of the Thousand Sunny, leaning on the railing. 

“See? You are annoying, Ace!” Hana commented with a smirk. 

“Hana, don’t be a turd!” Zoro instantly called back. 

Hana scoffed, obviously offended by what her father said. “Papa Zoro, now you’re being mean! You called me a piece of poop!” The green-haired little girl pointed out. 

Zoro just rolled his eye, letting out an annoyed sounding “Tch”. “Just do what your Aunt Alex is telling you to do!” He stated, making himself abundantly clear. The swordsman then left the conversation with his daughter at that, returning to go back to helping out Franky with ship-related matters to make sure everything was okay before the crew went to explore the island they had just docked at. 

Hana defiantly looked away from where her father was, only to see Ace laughing his ass off at their father getting on to his older sister. A familiar wide and bright grin was plastered on his face, letting out a small “shishishishi!” Ace was definitely a carbon copy of Luffy. No doubt about it. 

“HAHA! Hana, you just got in trouble~!” Ace exclaimed in a singsong tone of voice, making fun of his sister. 

“He was getting onto you, too, dimwit!” Hana told her brother cuttingly.

“Oh…” Ace replied doltishly, his grin fading away in an instant. 

Alex sighed deeply. Even though she and the crew absolutely adored these two children, they were a handful. With a smile, she snapped her fingers to get the two children’s attention. The green-haired girl and the raven-haired boy quickly turned their aunt’s way. “You both heard your father. You need to get along, alright?” The scarlet-haired aunt told her niece and nephew, her tone of voice softer than before. “Now, you two stay here and wait while I help the others get situated.” With that, nothing else was said. Both Alex and Zoro were firm in their instructions for the kids. 

Hana rolled her dark eyes. Jeez, they’re always up my ass! It’s not like anything bad is going to happen. That was what Hana wanted to say, but she kept her mouth shut. The little swordsman knew she would get in big trouble if she sassed back to her Auntie Alex. Also, she would definitely get in trouble for cussing in front of her. Hana grumbled, crossing her arms across her chest. Hana watched as her red-haired aunt walked up the ramp that led from the Sunny down to the dock. That’s when an idea popped into the young child’s head. 

Taking a step towards Ace, Hana kept her gaze on the adults, observing what they were doing. She saw her Papa Sanji bring out some refreshments for the crew, handing an orange drink to her Aunt Nami. “Hey, Ace?” Hana asked in a whisper, watching as Chopper and Brook were conversing about something. 

“Yeah, sis?” The little boy questioned, raising his brow in curiosity. His tone was also in a whisper, mimicking his sister. 

“You wanna go and explore the island now that no one is looking?”

“Yeah!” Ace replied with no hesitation. 

Hana and Ace nodded at each other. For how much the two of them bickered, they sure had moments where they acted like they were best friends. Both children took slow steps backward, keeping their gaze focused on the adults on the Thousand Sunny. The children’s footsteps got faster with every step that they took, and once they knew that their coast was clear, both Hana and Ace booked it for the island town. They both ran so fast that they practically left dust trails behind them. 

Right as Hana and Ace were out of sight, Ashley had come out of their bedroom that they shared with Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji. They let out a huge yawn, clearly overwhelmed with tiredness. They held their two-year-old daughter, Yuna, in their arms as they walked out onto the main area of the ship. “Oh? Are we here already?” Ashley muttered, rubbing the exhaustion from their eyes. These days, the brunette has been even more exhausted than usual. It wasn’t an uncommon occurrence for Ash to sleep a lot more and that was because not only did they have a toddler, but Ash was also six months pregnant with their second son. Because of those factors, napping had become Ash’s favorite pastime, so they did that activity often. 

Luffy, as well as the other members of the Straw Hats, spotted the brown-haired crew mate and their brunette daughter. With a huge happy grin on his face, Luffy made his way over to his wife and daughter, engulfing both of them in a loving hug. “Did you sleep well, treasure?” Luffy asked gently, a rare tone to his typically louder voice. 

Ash hugged him back. “I got as much sleep as I can get.” They replied with a light chuckle. As they broke the hug, Ash felt their toddler pull at their long wavy brown hair. “Yuna, no. Stop pulling on mommy’s hair, sweetie.” Ash told their daughter, who was pointing at Luffy. The connection clicked for Ash. “Do you want your Papa Luffy?” With a nod from Yuna, Ash handed over the two-year-old to Luffy, who gladly took Yuna. 

Luffy held his little girl in his arms. God, did this man absolutely adore all of his children. He took off his straw hat and put it on Yuna’s small head to block the hot August sun from getting in her face or giving the toddler a sunburn. “Alright, Yuna, let’s go see what Chopper and your Grandpa Brook are doing!” The raven-haired captain told his brunette daughter, who smiled in return. 

As Luffy and Yuna went over to visit their other family members, Sanji and Zoro came over Ash's way. Zoro leaned up against the wall, while Sanji handed his girlfriend a rejuvenating honey lemon drink. Ash happily took the drink. “Thank you, Sanji.” She thanked him, taking a sip of the drink. “Oh! Honey lemon chia fresca! Hell yeah!”

Sanji smiled. There was an adoring expression in his eyes as he saw Ash grin and cheerily hum a tune to themself. “I’m glad you’re enjoying it, angel.” The blonde cook told his significant other as he set the drink and food tray aside. 

“Did you sleep well?” Zoro asked Ashley. 

Ashley shrugged her shoulders. She took one more sip before responding. “As much as I could get. Yuna wasn’t a problem, but this little guy here in my tummy decided that once mommy was going to lay down for a bit, he was gonna start kicking.” The brunette pirate commented with a bit of a harmless edge to her voice. She then took another sip of her drink. 

“Well, at least you and Yuna got some sleep,” Sanji noted as he shoved his hands in his pockets. 

Ash nodded, taking her mouth away from the straw. “How’s Hana and Ace doing?” She inquired about her eldest daughter and her son. 

“Oh, they’re fine. Alex told those two brats to wait on the dock while we finished things up here.” Zoro informed his lover, crossing his arms over his chest. 

At that statement about their kids, Sanji glanced over at the dock for a brief moment. Suddenly, his heart stopped beating in his chest. His eyes widened as wide as they could possibly get, and he fell silent as Ash and Zoro chatted about a topic of conversation that fell deaf on the blonde’s ears. As Ash was saying something to the swordsman, Sanji placed his hand on her shoulder. “Love…” Sanji trailed off, his words caught in his throat. 

Ash and Zoro turned their heads to Sanji. Both of them sensed his extreme alarm. “Sanji? Baby, are you okay?” Ash asked, furrowing her brows in concern. Zoro also gave him a skeptical look. 

“… the kids…” Sanji gulped. 

“The… the kids? What about them?” Zoro inquired slowly.  

“The kids are gone!” The blonde man stated in a panicked tone. 

Ash and Zoro froze in their places. The three of them rushed over to the railing where they saw the dock area completely void of people. Hana and Ace were nowhere to be found. Ash and Zoro widened their dark hues, absolutely terrified by the fact that they couldn’t see their children. “Oh… Oh my god! The kids!” Ash exclaimed anxiously. Zoro and Sanji immediately rushed down the docking ramp in a hurry. 

This caused the attention of the rest of the crew to fall on Ash, Zoro, and Sanji. “What’s wrong, guys?!” Nami asked frantically. 

Ashley fiercely turned to her good friend as her two husbands were calling out the names of their son and daughter. “Hana and Ace aren’t on the dock! They’re missing!” Ash says in a panicked tone. Tears threatened to fall from their dark chocolate-brown orbs, and they began to breathe heavily. Her mind was running a mile a minute, her throat went completely dry, and her heart went numb. Ash began to tremble — so much so that she dropped her honey lemon chia fresca. The glass cup shattered once it had hit the ground, and tears started cascading down her tan cheeks. 

This was when the crew’s anxiety started to run rampant. They all instantly began to panic, and worry was coursing through their veins. Chopper and Robin immediately ran over to Ashley in an attempt to calm her down, and Luffy handed Yuna over to Franky after taking his straw hat from her and putting it on. By this point, Zoro and Sanji were already well into the town searching for their missing children.

“Goddamnit! I told them to stay on the dock while we finished everything here!” Alex cursed, hurriedly making her way down to the dock. 

“Ashley, listen to me. Try your best to regulate your breathing. Follow my breathing patterns. Stress isn’t good for the baby.” Robin told her friend calmly, although incredibly panicked herself. Ash wasn’t budging despite Robin’s efforts. 

“Robin, Franky, and I will remain here with Ashley and Yuna! You guys go and find Hana and Ace!” Chopper instructed as he tried his best to ease his friend’s nerves. 

Luffy nodded. A gazillion possibilities were running through everyone’s minds. What if someone had kidnapped Hana and Ace? What if they happened to get in a situation that they can’t get themselves out of? “Alright! Split up to cover more ground! Let’s go!” Luffy commanded his crew, who didn’t object by any means. They were determined to find the babies of the crew safe and sound. Before he left, Luffy quickly ran over to his wife, who was in tears. He absolutely hated seeing Ashley in such a broken state, his heart breaking at the sight. He took off his straw hat and put it on the brunette, which made her freeze and seize her crying. 

“L-Luffy…?” Ash muttered through her hiccups. 

“We will get them back. No doubt about it.” He told her confidently and soothingly, kissing her forehead. 

“O-Okay…” She muttered in a shattered tone, nodding. 

Without another word, Luffy ran as fast as he could into the town to find his two kids. 

{~~~}

“WHOA! HANA, LOOK AT THAT WEIRD THINGY!” Ace announced obnoxiously, pointing to a knickknack that he found intriguing. 

Hana rolled her eyes. “Keep your voice down, idiot! You don’t want to attract any attention to us!” Hana chastised her little brother. 

“But I want another one of those thingies!” He protested. 

Hana crossed her arms over her chest. “Really? You didn’t even buy those. You pickpocketed those things!” The older sister stated in a low voice, so as to not alarm the passerbyers in the streets. 

“Well, at least I didn’t get caught!” Ace cheered with a toothy grin plastered on his face. 

“That sounds exactly like something that Aunt Nami would say…” Hana trailed off with a sigh. 

“She says that if you don’t get caught, then you’re fine!” 

“Yeah, I’m starting to think that you shouldn’t take her advice when it comes to stuff like this, Ace,” Hana stated with a somewhat sarcastic and unemotional tone in her voice. She observed her surroundings — something that her parents had taught her to do at a young age. However, in Hana’s opinion, Ace wasn’t even close to mastering that skill, so to speak. The green-haired swordswoman kept one hand on one of her katanas to be ready to strike if needed to, always keeping out for stuff in the corner of her eyes. That’s when the little girl caught a glimpse of two people that were very familiar to both her and Ace. It was two out of three of their fathers — their Papa Luffy and Papa Zoro. 

Widening her chocolate brown orbs, she grabbed her little brother by the wrist and yanked him into an alleyway, intending to utilize it as their detour. “Shit! They may have seen us!” Hana cursed in a whisper, but her brother still heard her and decided to comment on it. 

“Hehehe, Hana said a naughty word!!” Ace exclaimed noisily. Even though she loved her brother, Hana knew that Ace was loud, and often during the worst of times. This was most definitely the worst of times for the siblings. 

“Shut your mouth, Ace!!” Hana hissed lowly, and in an instant, her little brother was quiet. However, it wasn’t because of Hana getting short with him. It was because of the fact that he and his sister weren’t alone in that alleyway. In front of him and his sister, who wasn’t looking in his direction. Ace’s eyes widened as the two men stopped their conversation, locking their gazes with Ace’s as they approached him and his eldest sister. 

“Umm…”

“What is it, Ace?” Hana whispered sharply as the two men’s shadows engulfed their small figures. 

When she didn’t get an answer, she was confused. His silence only made Hana quizzical and worried, since Ace was never silent. If Roronoa Ace was quiet, which was a rare occasion, then something was really wrong. Hana turned around to say something to her brother, but her words were caught in her throat for a brief second when she saw the two men towering over the two of them. They were incredibly menacing to the children, more so to Ace than to Hana. “What are we gonna do, Hana?” Ace questioned quietly, frozen in his spot. 

“You two are liabilities, so you’re gonna come with us!” One of the two men growled threateningly as he grabbed Ace’s wrist, trying to forcefully take him with him. 

Hana just sighed roughly. This man’s fate was sealed the moment that he decided to touch her brother. With an intense glare that could cut through anything, Hana began her attack. Unsheathing her two katanas, she shut her eyes tight and focused on what she learned during her training with her Papa Zoro. As she opened her eyes to see her brother being taken away, Hana unleashed her attack. “Two Sword Style: Spinning Ribbon Cyclone!” She roared, setting her sights on the two men that made the poor decision of trying to harm them. Hana then charged at the two men within a blink of an eye, causing her to leave behind huge gusts of winds that were spiral-shaped. Not only were these two men screaming bloody murder, but they were also incredibly and clearly harmed. Hana’s attack eventually dissipated, leaving the two men in a state of complete agony and shock. This attack caused the two shady men to drop the chest that held this weird-shaped fruit. Hana just barely stuck the landing, wobbling on her right foot for a second before standing up as straight as a stick. “Hell yeah! I stuck the landing!” Hana cheered with an elated grin on her tan face. 

“Just barely…” Ace murmured in hopes to annoy his sister a little bit, which worked well for little Ace. 

“Oh, hush, you!! I count that!” Hana argued vehemently. Sighing roughly, Hana sheathed her twin katanas. She knew that this attack would attract the attention of her Papa Zoro and Papa Luffy, since they were close by. Not too much sooner, Hana’s intuition was proven to be correct when she and Ace saw their two fathers lock eyes with them. 

“AAAAAACE!! HANAAAAAAAA!!” The furious voice of Luffy sounded loudly, reverberating off of the stone walls of the buildings that made up the alleyway they were. Even though there was an evident sense of rage in his voice, Hana could see the fear in Luffy’s dark eyes. 

The brother and sister duo nodded to each other, seemingly having the same plan in mind. “Go! Now!” Hana ordered as she swiftly yanked the odd-looking fruit from the chest that it was in. That’s when she and Ace booked it, running away from their two dads. 

“DON’T RUN AWAY FROM US, YOU TWO! GET OVER HERE RIGHT NOW!” Zoro demanded as he chased after his son and daughter. 

Luffy utilized his Devil Fruit abilities in this situation, stretching out his arms to try and capture the two children, but it was to no avail. Hana and Ace had already turned the corner and ran away as fast as they possibly could. “Dammit!” Luffy cursed, both of his arms returning back to normal as Zoro chased after their kids. 

Meanwhile, Hana and Ace had managed to escape from their parents’ wrath. They ran and ran until finally, they reached another alleyway to camp out in. They caught their breaths for a moment before they both sat down on the ground, which certainly dirtied their attire even more than it already was. Hana held the strange fruit in her hands, looking at it. Both she and Ace were examining this interesting type of food, curious about it. It was a fruit that was spiky, similar to that of a pineapple, but it was in the shape of what looked like a pear or an eggplant. It was pristine white in color, and the fruit emitted a light electric static charge that caused Hana and Ace’s hair to frizzle and stand up. 

Ace tilted his head curiously. “What is it?” He asked his sister. 

“I don’t know, bro,” She responded, shrugging her shoulders. Hana stared at the fruit for a moment before not even hesitating in taking a bite of the food. 

“You just took a bite of it?” 

“Yeah, so what? You can’t tell me that you wouldn’t do the same thing.”

“Fair,” Four-year-old Ace said as he shrugged his shoulders. After a minute of Hana eating this fruit, Ace’s curiosity got the better of him. He snatched the fruit from Hana’s hands, and he took a huge chomp out of the fruit on the side that Hana didn’t bite into. 

“Hey! You fwicking…!” Hana began with food in her mouth, but then swallowed her bite to finish her sentence. “You fricking jerk! What was that for?!” 

Before Ace could even respond, he ended up spitting out the fruit immediately. “Ew! Gross! I just wanted to try it!” Ace continued to spit onto the ground to attempt to get rid of the horrid taste in his mouth. 

Crossing her arms, Hana lifted a brow in question. “What do you mean? It tasted really good to me. It was kinda tangy and sweet, I guess you could say. You just have a poor taste in food, Ace.” Hana remarked jauntily. 

Before anything else could be said between the two of them, Hana and Ace were caught by surprise when someone grabbed them by the back of their shirts. They screamed in fright, trying to wriggle away. However, they were both unsuccessful. When the two children looked up, they saw their two fathers, Zoro and Luffy. The angriest expressions were hardened on their faces, and it was at that moment that Hana and Ace knew that they had screwed up big time. 

“What the hell is wrong with you two?! Thinking it’s okay to sneak off like that without an adult — that’s dangerous and ludacris! Me and your Aunt Alex gave you instructions, and you disobeyed us! Do you know how worried we were about you guys?! Something could have happened to—” Zoro expressed frantically, his voice rising instantly with no hesitation.

In the middle of his husband’s ranting, Luffy noticed that Ace was holding something in his hand. Curious, Luffy decided to take a peek. His eyes widened in realization. “Zoro,” Luffy started bluntly, “Ace has something in his hand.”

Zoro immediately fell silent when he recognized what his son was holding. He froze for a moment, not knowing what to do. He figured Robin would have more information regarding what this fruit was, but Zoro and Luffy both could tell that this was a Devil Fruit. “Which one of you ate this? Did you both eat this? Where did you get it from?” Zoro questioned seriously, staring down both his older children. Luffy stood at his side with a cross look on his face and with his arms folded over his chest. 

Ace’s eyes shifted to the side for a brief second. The little boy kept his firm grasp on the Devil Fruit. “Well, Papa Zoro, we ended up stealing the food from those two guys that Hana beat the crap out of. Hana ate it first, but I also had some after.” Ace admitted slowly, telling his dad the information that he was wanting. 

Zoro’s gaze then focused on Hana, who didn’t let her unaffected demeanor falter in any way. Hana thought for sure that her Papa Zoro would yell at her, but he just remained silent. Honestly, the tense silence and the hardened glare of Zoro’s was telling Hana and Ace enough. “Let’s get them back to the ship.” Zoro huffed angrily, still holding his two kids by their shirts. 

“Right,” Luffy agreed, nodding. 

Hana didn’t like this decision that was made by her parents. The little girl grumbled in frustration as Zoro and Luffy began escorting their kids back to the Thousand Sunny. Hana’s emotions were building up, frustration being the emotion that typically got the best of her. This time wasn’t any different. All she wanted to do was explore the island with Ace. Where was the harm in that? She didn’t understand it, and she hated not getting her way. “DAD! We just wanted to explore the island a bit! Why couldn’t we just do that?!” Hana had brought up in an infuriated manner after a moment of silence had passed by the group of four. “Also, is it really necessary to carry us back to the Sunny by the back of our shirts?” 

Zoro glared at his daughter harshly. “That’s enough outta you.” He stated coldly. It was clear that Zoro had enough of his children’s shenanigans, and he was beyond livid with them. 

Because of Zoro’s lack of a satisfying response, Luffy ended up answering for him. “Yes, it is necessary because we don’t want you two running away from us. You need to stay with the adults because you’re too young to go out on your own.” Luffy affirmed acutely. “You didn’t follow orders that were given to you, and you ran away and did things your own way. Hana, Ace, you two could have gotten hurt or in a situation that you couldn’t get yourselves out of.” It was incredibly strange to see their Papa Luffy in such a stern and humorless manner, and that oddity alone sent a strong message to the kids. 

Hana folded her arms over her chest, letting out a complaint in the form of a disapproving groan. All of her feelings were building up inside of her, and before anyone knew it, something had happened. Hana’s body emitted some kind of static energy that ended up shocking Zoro, which, in turn, caused him to drop Hana to the ground. He nearly dropped Ace, as well, but he managed to tighten his grip in time before he fell to the ground. Zoro was speechless for a second, blinking. “What… Hana, what the—?!” 

“I’m sorry, Papa Zoro, I don’t know how I did that!” 

“You shocked me!” Zoro exclaimed in disbelief. He sighed roughly, handing his daughter to her other father. “Take her to keep the electricity insulated.” 

Luffy nodded. “Yup, you got it, babe.” The captain replied as he took the little green-haired girl in his grasp. They kept walking, almost making it back to the ship, when Luffy and Ace abruptly broke out into a fit of giggles. Hana giggled quieter than her father and brother, keeping a smirk on her face. 

“What’s so funny?” Zoro inquired brazenly, lifting a brow. 

“Shishishi! Dad’s hair is frizzy!” Ace snickered with a huge playful grin on his face that matched Luffy’s grin. 

Zoro only huffed in response. Even though he and Luffy, along with the rest of the crew, weren’t pleased with what had taken place, Zoro was incredibly happy and more so relieved to be hearing the laughter of his two kids. Anything could have happened to them. Something awful and horrible could have befallen these two little children, and no one would have been there to save them. Zoro wouldn’t have been able to protect his precious kids if anything terrible had happened to Hana and Ace. Despite the fact that he was cross with them, finally locating Hana and Ace and finding them safe and sound instantly eased the majority of Zoro’s nerves. It seemed like Luffy felt the same way, as well. 

Once they got back to the ship, the four of them saw that everyone else that had gone out to locate the kids was back on the ship. “We found them!” Luffy announced to his crew, causing sounds of relief to fill the air. Ashley turned their head to see a very displeased Zoro and Luffy enter on the ship with their two young children in their grasp. Ash audibly gasped when she saw her kids. Luffy sat Hana down and Ace wriggled out of Zoro’s grasp. Although Zoro had loosened his grip a bit, which made it easier for the four-year-old boy to escape. The brunette mother rushed over to her two kids and her two husbands. 

Hana and Ace were alarmed by their mother’s mannerisms. Ace, in particular, was showing how worried he was for Ash. Their mother had puffy red eyes and tears streaming down their face, staining their tan cheeks. The two kids were extremely shaken up seeing their mother in this way because this sight was a first for them. Hana and Ace had never seen their mother break down and cry like she was doing currently. In fact, both of the Roronoa children could ever remember a time when they witnessed their mother crying like she was now.

Ace and Hana widened their dark eyes as their mother approached them. “Mama, what—” Ace started, but his mother had cut him off. 

“DON’T YOU EVER RUN AWAY LIKE THAT EVER AGAIN! YOU HEAR ME?!” Ashley wailed as she engulfed her children in a bone-crushing embrace. The brunette was surprised that they were even able to get that sentence out without stuttering. They were letting out all of their frustration, anxiety, and paranoia at this moment in time, which was made clear by their sobbing. “Do you know how much you worried everyone?! It’s dangerous for kids so young to go out on their own! You never know what kinds of people you’ll come in contact with, or what they’ll do to you if they have ill intentions!”

“Ohhh, just like those weird guys in the alleyway?” Ace blurted out. This earned him a hit on the top of his head from his eldest sister. 

“You dummy,” Hana mumbled, puffing out her cheek. 

“WHAT?!” Multiple crew members exclaimed in shock and worry, including Ashley, Chopper, Ussop, and Nami, to name a few. They were all very clearly freaked out by what the four-year-old had vaguely mentioned. 

Ash narrowed their eyes at their two older children, a serious expression on their face. Their chocolate brown hues held immense concern in them. “Hana, Ace, explain. Now.” Ash demanded. 

“Um… we were running away from Papa Luffy and Papa Zoro, so we decided to hide in an alleyway. There were two men there talking about this weird fruit thing here,” The raven-haired boy then pulled out the Devil Fruit from behind his back, which immediately didn’t sit right with Ash, “and then Hana beat the crap outta those guys! It was soooo freaking cool! Then, after that, we stole the fruit because we were hungry and hid somewhere else until our Papas came and found us.” Ace explained nonchalantly to his mother. 

Ash’s eyes were wide as she took in all of that information. “See? It’s people like those men that you have to be watchful for!” The brunette sighed before continuing. “Which one of you ate this fruit?” She asked. 

“It was both of them. Hana ate it first, and then Ace decided to take a bite of it.” Zoro answered his wife gruffly. 

“Robin,” Sanji started as he helped Ash up from the ground where she was meeting her children’s height, “do you happen to know what kind of Devil Fruit this is?”

Robin approached her niece and nephew. “Let me see it.” She said calmly, and Ace gave his aunt the half-eaten fruit. After a moment of analyzing this odd fruit, Robin let out a gasp. 

“What? What is it, Robin?” Alex asked her girlfriend nervously. 

“This is… the Rai-Rai Devil Fruit! It’s an incredibly powerful Devil Fruit, one with great power that should not be taken lightly. Some would argue that the Rai-Rai Devil Fruit is one of the more dangerous of the Devil Fruits. It’s known for its power centering around lighting. In particular, we’re talking about the ability to manifest, generate, and manipulate lighting. It wouldn’t surprise me if there are more avenues to her powers. Since Hana was the first one to consume this fruit, that means she now has those abilities at her disposal.” Robin elaborated, informing the others about this matter. 

“Aw, yeah! New powers! Does this mean that I can put this in my weapons?!” Hana questioned with excitement in her eyes. 

Robin smiled sweetly at Hana’s enthusiasm, knowing what her niece meant. “Yes, I would say that it’s entirely possible to incorporate your Devil Fruit abilities into your weaponry.” The raven-haired woman replied. 

“Yay!!” Hana cheered with a bright smile. 

“Hana, these Devil Fruit powers are a huge adjustment. They’re going to take a little while to control and get used to, especially since it’s such a strong type.” The blonde cook pointed out to his eldest daughter. 

If anything, others around her could perceive Hana as determined. This was a new challenge for her to try and defeat, so she was more than willing to take this opportunity head-on. “Yeah, I know, Papa Sanji. It’s okay, though, because I know that I got this in the bag!” The green-haired little girl declared with a motivated spirit. 

“Well, I’m just happy that you and your brother are safe,” Nami commented with a relieved sigh. “Who knows what could have happened with those two men…”

“Yeah, we’re sorry for running off like that. I guess we didn’t realize how much that made you guys worry.” Hana apologized. Although, she was mainly saying it for the sake of formality. Hana definitely had fun running around the town, and she would be lying if she said she wouldn’t do it again. 

“Yeah, we’re sorry…” Ace trailed off. 

“Please, listen to us next time. When we tell you to do something, then do it. We love you guys. We want you guys to be safe and happy. You can’t do something like that again.” Ashley reiterated softly. 

“So, Mama, Papas, now that we’re back home and we’ve apologized, does this mean Hana and I aren’t in trouble anymore?” Ace asked with a hopeful grin. 

“No,” Their parents all said instantly with no hesitation. 

This elicited groans of complaints from Ace and Hana. “What?! Why not?!” Ace exclaimed. 

“We don’t have to reiterate why you two are in trouble,” Ashley stated. “In fact, you’re both grounded for a week after this stunt you pulled.”

“UGH!!”

Tip jar!

Masterlist

It was at times like these that Sanji cursed his entire being—most especially his body, for having gotten so used to waking up at a set time every day. Because here he was, with a pounding headache that threatened to split his head in half and squash his brain into a mush, and yet he was still unable to sleep in for more than 4 hours.

Delaying the inevitable, he tried his best to keep his eyes shut, even if just for a little while. Dread filled him at the thought that opening them would send lancinating pain shooting through his eyes and the back of his head, and that was an issue he did not want to deal with now.

Especially not after colossally mortifying himself like that last night. Actually, he’d much rather forget it all together. Maybe completely wipe the memory from his head.

Much of the second half of the night was a booze-induced haze, flashing images swirling behind his eyes like they’re floating in water, and he couldn’t bring himself to try and remember the rest of it. After all, why would he want to think about how he embarrassed himself in front of the one person he yearned for more than life itself?

Baring his heart like only an idiot would, skinning himself alive and prostrating himself in front of them without a single ounce of the dignity he’d tried so hard to preserve for ages… he truly was a lost cause.

“Putain,” Sanji swore under his breath, even his raspy voice sounding grating to his ears, and he buried his head further into—

—his jacket?

All inhibitions instantly cast aside, his head shot up from where it was, and he was hit with the surging pain of an unbearable crick in his neck. Eyes flying open and completely ignoring the sting of the light, it was only then that he realized that he hadn’t, in fact, stumbled his drunken way back to bed after his whole blurted confession and tumbled face first into dreamland.

No. In reality, he’d actually just slept an uncomfortable few hours on the kitchen table, his head just barely hanging on after being supported only by his crumpled jacket.

Shit. The kitchen.

It was at that moment he came to the sudden realization that the thrumming headache wasn’t only caused by him waking up, but also from the loud banging of another person in his kitchen pulling out his precious pots and pans.

It must be well past morning. Everyone was probably ridiculously hungry by now.

It took all he had for him to stop himself from snapping at whoever it was that decided to step up (and also make a wreck out of his sacred space and possessions) for only that reason. In his desire to drown himself in his sorrowful miseries, he’d completely neglected his duty as a chef. If not to sustain his crewmates and friends, what use was he outside of battle?

Nothing, he thought to himself, blearily blinking the sleep out of his eyes as he began to turn around with a sigh, not looking forward to the confrontation that was to come, nothing at all—

“There you are, darling,” came a soft voice from behind him, barely above a whisper. A blooming warmth rushed to his cheeks, and he almost toppled out of the chair as he recognized just who it was that was saying those saccharine words.

It couldn’t be. There was no way he he’d be so blessed by the angels first thing in the morning.

And yet. And yet.

Here they were, in all their fresh-faced, tender-hearted glory, leaning down to gently stroke his cheek with a deft thumb. If Sanji let slip a broken whimper of half-relief, half-agony, they made no comment on it. “You’re hungover, then?”

With his mouth feeling like it was filled with cotton wool, no words could come out, and he instead just nodded his head weakly. Thankfully, that too they let slide. “I got Chopper to help out with that.” They pushed a cup with an odd liquid and two pills towards him. “Should help.”

For a couple of seconds as Sanji downed them and sent a silent prayer to whoever decided to let Chopper have the lack of common sense to join their crew, they turned around, probably on their way back to the stove that now sizzled and emitted the lovely smell of caramelized onions and garlic—and if his nose wasn’t betraying him, simmering in some balsamic vinegar and soy sauce—that he had memorized long ago. But after a moments’ hesitation, they walked up to him once again, sliding his jacket out from underneath him and carefully folding it.

“You should go to your quarters and get a proper sleep in. I’ve got it from here.” With that sweet smile of theirs that threatened to send his heart into overdrive, they began to usher him out. “When you’re up again, I’ll reheat your food for you. You don’t look so ready to eat now.”

If he was looking as green as he felt, he couldn’t blame them one bit for calling it out as it is. Clearing his throat once then twice, he tried to speak again, voice awfully raspy (even more than after he’d had a smoke). “You… you cooked?”

They hummed in affirmation, now with their back turned to him as they began to crack eggs into a pan. “Not done yet, but yeah. You’ve only slept a couple of hours, so I figured it would be better if I managed to get us through breakfast in your place. Won’t be as good as yours, but I hope you can trust me to try.”

As they waved off to their left, he saw how they’d propped up his notebook against the pepper shaker. And maybe this was just him feeling extra sensitive and still a little in a haze, but something stirred in his chest at the thought of them carefully following every step in his recipes and diligently trying to emulate his cooking.

“Mon ange, you shouldn’t have…” His voice was still a little rough yet trembling with the emotions he couldn’t even try to hide; emotions that were bigger than his own feeble heart could take. His fists curled at his sides, eyebrows furrowed as he watched them elegantly handle the kitchenware like they were their own. This was too much for him. “I can handle my own hangover. It’s… it’s not your responsibility to do my own job.”

With a sigh, they turned down the stove and looked back at him with an exasperated yet incredibly fond look in their eyes. “You silly man, no one’s forcing me to do this.” At the affectionate lilt of their voice, Sanji’s mouth went dry, and he tried to swallow (with much difficulty) past the lump in his throat.

What could he have possibly done to deserve this? He can’t have earned this much goodness. There simply was no way.

“You don’t have to earn my love, Sanji.” Fuck. Had he really said that out loud? Their soft-spoken words and the sympathetic look in their eyes told him that yes, he had. He hadn’t intended to make himself sound so pathetic, and yet here he was, accepting the way they brushed his curly eyebrow with slivers of shame curling inside his chest. “I’ve already told you, my love is yours to keep,” they softly said.

“Your… pardon, quoi?” His heart came to a stuttering stop, all his movements halted and his eyes blown wide open almost comically as the words they said finally hit him.

One look at how utterly confused and shocked he looked, and realization seemed to dawn on their face. “I guess it would be too ambitious of me to expect you to remember much of last night,” they huffed out a laugh, before taking to the chopping board and beginning to chop up some fresh vegetables as they slowly spoke, as though hoping to break it gently. “You weren’t the only one who had an indirect confession in store.”

Digging the palms of his hands into his closed eyes, Sanji threw back his head and groaned as the memories came back to him bit by bit, achingly slowly and then all at once. “Merde,” he hissed out, the throbbing in his head doubling with every image that replayed in his head. “I can’t believe…” It was almost like he’d set a personal challenge for how much a person could embarrass themself within less than 12 hours.

What other explanation was there for him just completely forgetting that the one person who’d burrowed into the depths of his heart had somehow expressed that they felt the same for him? How else could he explain not remembering that they’d said that they wanted to be with him, in some miraculous way that he still couldn’t quite believe was real?

The chop-chop-chop of the knife stilled, and they set it down with a chuckle that sent tingles down his spine and his heart into near cardiac arrest. Lovely, lovely, lovely. His hangover seemed to have a weak spot for their laughter too, because why else would his headache somehow chip away just at the sound?

They were quick to soothe him with their words, their hands reaching up to tug his arms back to his sides. “It’s fine, I promise. You’re just a bit disoriented now.” Looking into such a fond gaze didn’t help the heat rushing to his cheeks, and he found himself being reminded of just how desperately in love he was; so much that he could swear it burned him alive. “I mean it though,” they earnestly mumbled, tenderly cupping his face, “and I’ll wait till you’re well-rested. Then we’ll talk.”

“Alright,” he managed to whisper out between breaths, “But—“

“Go.” They gave him a gentle push, before turning around to stir something in a small pot and add some spices that made the smell even more tantalizing. “If you don’t want breakfast to be a disaster, that is. Wouldn’t want to send my boyfriend’s kitchen up in flames.”

That’s it. A sharp pang in the deepest crevices of his chest and he was gone, his head floating with dizziness and his vision swimming. Sanji was long dead and on his way to whichever heaven would accept him; a heaven where he was somehow inexplicably loved and wanted; a heaven where he’d hear those words from their lips and know that they were indeed—thanks to some ridiculously generous higher power that blessed him beyond his wildest dreams—referring to him.

The last thing he felt were his limbs failing to keep supporting him, and a lightheadedness that overtook him so suddenly, crumpling to the ground in a helpless heap.

I think I’m gonna die a lucky man, he dazedly thought to himself, before finally succumbing to a blissful unconsciousness against the cold kitchen floor.

“Sanji!”

Secret Confession

Pairing:  Monkey D. Luffy x Reader 

First time writing for Luffy, so I hope I did well! 

Summary: Getting up for a late-night snack with Luffy, they get nearly get caught by Sanji, who always yells at fluffy for sneaking in the fridge at night, hiding together, and learning how close they are while enjoying a late-night snack on the Sunny...

Warnings:  Slight Swearing (That's about it!)

Word Count: .8k 

"Luffy, is that you?" Yawning and rubbing my eyes while making my way to the kitchen, I could hear his stomach rumbling, his eyes still closed as he nodded, walking into the kitchen and mumbling:

"I'm hungryyyy."

"Me too," I yawned, following in behind him, seeing him trying to budge the fridge open, but Sanji had put a lock on it just because of Luffy:

"Why does Sanji have to do this to me?!"

"Shhh," I hushed, stepping up and unlocking the fridge, "Sanji will be pissed if he knows I let you in the fridge, so try to stay quiet."

"Okay," He whispered, giggling and rummaging through the fridge, exclaiming, "You're the best, Y/N! There's so much yummy food in here!"

"Luffy!" I scolded quietly, "I said be qui-"

"LUFFY! IF YOU'RE IN THE KITCHEN EATING ALL THE FOOD, I SWEAR TO GOD!"

Just great, Sanji was awake.

I stared at Luffy with fire in my eyes, "Just great. He's going to flip on us."

"Not if he doesn't know where we are," He laughed, shoving the food into my hands before wrapping up with his rubber arm, "Hold on to that with your life, got it?"

"Huh?" Seized in his arm, Luffy took off and out of the kitchen before Sanji could get there, jumping to the deck, his free arm shooting up to the crow's nest, making me squeal as we flung to the top:

"WOAH!"

"Shhh!" Luffy was one to try and silence me, eyes peeking over the crow's nest to see Sanji searching for him:

"Got damn it, Luffy! Just wait till I find you!"

Slouching back against the floor, Luffy giggled, taking the food from my arms, "He didn't see us. We're in the clear."

"For now," I huffed, staring at the dark sky till he held a piece of meat over my face, mumbling out of his full mouth:

"You said you were hungry, right?"

"Yeah, thanks," I smiled tiredly, taking the meat and chowing it down with him.

"It's good, right?" Luffy smiled at me, sitting up as Sanji was gone now, devouring the food we took.

"Really good," I yawned, relaxing back as just that one piece of meat satisfied my hunger, staring at the full, bright moon as Luffy laid back with me, shivering slightly at the wind passing by, freezing as I felt Luffy's arm around me, sliding closer to me.

I stared at him, a bit confused, and he tilted his head at me, confused himself as he asked:

"What? You were shivering, so I thought you were cold."

"It is a little chilly," I swallowed, looking back up to the sky, "I just want to enjoy the view for a moment."

"Enjoy it," He nodded, looking at me and keeping me close, "And I'll keep you warm till you're done."

Never in a million years did I imagine that someone would make me feel so flustered, let alone that specific someone being my captain! Although, he was warm and oblivious as always when he saw the flustered look on my face:

"The cold getting you sick or something? Why are you making that face?"

"No, Luffy," I sighed, nervous and whispering, "You realize we're practically cuddling, right?"

"Do you not like cuddles?" I only kept on confusing him. It wasn’t that I didn’t like cuddles; I was just so nervous; trying to explain to him:

"I just-I never-"

I had never been in a situation like this, and his goofy but pure ways made me smile as he gasped:

"Oh, you don't know how! It's easy!"

Fixing me against his chest, our legs intertwining, he showed that he had no idea what he was doing by whispering under his breath:

"At least, I think that's how you're supposed to cuddle."

"It's fine," I smiled at him softly, that bright smile of his making me happy like it always did, my heart skipping beats as he placed his hand on my head, keeping it against his chest and playing with my hair, whispering:

"Now, you can enjoy the moon and stay warm."

"Thank you, Luffy," I whispered, curling up against him, staring at the moon, and my brain flooded with thoughts and emotions I never felt before.

Why did I feel happier than ever right now? So peaceful and content? Why did I not want to leave Luffy's arms? I started to realize what I was feeling, and it was a lot to process because Luffy wasn't just anyone; he was my captain.

"Hey, Luffy-" I was going to attempt to maybe talk to him about how I felt, but when I picked up my head, he was fast asleep, snoring, and he looked so adorable.

I didn't want to disrupt his peace, laying back against his chest, whispering even though I knew he couldn't hear me:

"I love you."

our baby sister ; asl

↻ fluff, overprotective sabo, luffy being luffy, comedy (??), grammatical errors

↻ pairing ↬ asl x (platonic) fem!reader! x sanji

@br34ky0ursp1n3 asked: Hello! So I was wondering if you could make a modern au fic with the classic asl brothers! Could it ofc be with a fem!reader as the youngest of the four and they're all at a restaurant, a waiter about reader's age starts flirting with reader right in front of her brothers?? Thank you and have a wonderful day! 😋

a/n this was sitting in my draft for so long. im really sorry for procrastinating :( making sanji the waiter bcs its fun.

“hmm... what do you think? should we take her out to celebrate?” ace asked sabo. the blond thought for a moment. “i mean...” he hesitates. “we should!” luffy suddenly chimed in. “she’s done amazing on her tests! but she probably should have done better than me,” luffy added quietly on the last part. 

sabo and ace quickly punched luffy’s head. “as if you’re any better!” ace scolded. “you know better that i did better,” ace suddenly added. and he gets a beating from sabo. “no, the two of you did worse. seriously?! how could you two failed all of the subjects except for p.e class?!” sabo scolded them, crossing his arms together. 

suddenly, you barged in through the door, squealing as you held your test results. “i. got. straight. a’s!” you screamed, shoving the paper in front of your brothers’ faces. ace and luffy only watched with their mouth wide open while sabo looked at you proudly.

“we’re taking you out to celebrate,” sabo announced, smiling widely at you.

.

“can you believe it?! i still have a good laugh thinking about that story!” ace slapped the table while laughing loudly. “i swear the look on luffy's face when grandpa caught him skipping class!” 

you and sabo laugh along. “but you got caught too!” luffy quickly added. this makes ace’s face to go red with embarrassment. “and your face was deffinitely funnier!” luffy laughed loudly this time. ace’s laughter already died down the moment luffy mentioned his involvement. 

you take a sip of your drink while smiling at your brothers. the waiter finally arrives with your food. “here’s one special drink for a beautiful lady,” the man smiled at you. “oh, you’ve got it wrong. we didn’t order this,” you denied the drink politely.

“is there any other beautiful lady here?” the blond smirked. “it’s on the house,” he added. “sanji? what are you doing here?” luffy asked, tilting his head in confusion. sabo was fuming with anger. he cleared his throat loudly and glared at sanji. “yeah, what are you doing here, sanji?” sabo said in a low, threatening voice.

“i work here, of course!” sanji revealed proudly. “i thought that my attire was obvious enough,” he added quietly. “anyway, i hope you guys enjoy dinner. especially you, beautiful,” sanji said, kissing your hand before taking his leave. 

you flinched when sabo suddenly slammed the table. “the audacity of him to be touching our baby sister!” ace and luffy only shrugged and continued eating their meals. “sabo, relax. he was just being nice,” you chuckled. “he was clearly flirting with you!”

this caused your two other brothers to gasp. “he was flirting with y/n?!” they said in union. ensue to your brothers bickering that the four of you got kicked out of the restaurant for being too loud.

can i request a luffy x reader but halloween themed? maybe one at the ship’s party where reader got all the crew’s attention for her costume

Little Devil ↠ Luffy x Reader

➼ Word Count » 0.4k ➼ Warnings » Slightly Suggestive ➼ Genre » Romantic ➼ A/N » Happy late Halloween <3

You stood sideways in the mirror as you smoothed your hands down your tight red dress. The crew was currently out on the deck celebrating the current holiday, and they'd no doubt be wondering where you were if you took any longer getting out there. So, with a small adjustment of the plastic horns that sat atop your head, you started making your way out to where everyone else was.

You couldn't seem to stamp out the nerves that lingered in the pit of your stomach ― was the costume too much? Would everyone else think it was too revealing? Sure, you'd bought it like that on purpose, but now that you had it on, you weren't sure if it would elicit the response you'd initially thought it would.

You slowly pushed open the wooden door that led out to the main deck, your red platform heels clicking as you walked. You felt your body heat up a bit as everyone turned toward you, taking in your choice of costume ― it made you nervous, and you couldn't help but make a beeline straight toward the girls for some much-needed second opinions.

Robin chuckled behind her hand as you approached, "My, don't you look scandalous."

"Does it look alright?"

"Alright?? You look stunning!" Nami squealed as she wrapped her arms around your form in a loving and super excited embrace.

"―and it seems we're not the only ones who think it~" Robin whispered to you behind her glass of wine.

You glanced over to where the older woman was staring in confusion, only to be met with your captain's eyes taking you in with a look you couldn't quite place your finger on. A shiver ran up your spine as his gaze dragged down your body, from how the horned headband was angled, down to where your dress stopped right above your thighs, and then darting back up to meet his eyes with your own.

Nami gently shoved you in his direction when he started waving you over and your hand instinctively went to grab anxiously at your elbow.

He laughed as you came closer, "I like your costume," He said as one of his arms stretched to wrap around your waist and pull you much closer to him. Your hands were pressed firmly to his chest as he continued, "But I think you and I should head downstairs for a moment, yeah?"

And there you were, left completely flustered as Luffy peppered kisses all over your face. The costume worked in getting the attention you'd been hoping for, but you hadn't thought of the consequence of it being in front of the entire crew.
