You moved to one of the biggest cities in the world - Grand Line to pursue filmmaking career. Soon enough your path will cross with the vocalist of upcoming band called “The Neighbourhood”. At first you decided to be just friends - because it would be easier, but sadly as everything in life sometimes by taking the easy path we regret a lot of things.

~~~~~~~~~

It's been so cold lately. The strongest man's crew had to pass through winter islands to reach one of the islands under his protection. And who said winter island, obviously said dying of cold even under the duvet.

The only way Y/n had to avoid shivering in her high-end hammock was to sleep in it with all the clothes she had on, as well as her gloves and her shoes. But unfortunately for the young girl, it was absolutely not comfortable. She could attest to that because that was how she had slept last night.

During the day things were better because she had a lot to do as second in command to the fiery fist. She also spent her time running through the maze of the ship to look for the match that served as her boyfriend who was still failing in his obligations.

Yes, her and the famous pirate were dating. However, nobody apart from them, and perhaps their father who always knew everything about what was happening with his children, was aware of the relationship they had. But in any case they would soon be out in the open, because of a strong cook, master of love, who watched their every remark, every look they looked at.

Determined to get a good night's sleep this time, and remembering that there was a second way not to freeze to death, the young woman gathered her courage until tomorrow and got out of her quilt. When she got up, the fabric wrapped around her shoulders, she saw that her neighbor in the hammock was no longer in her bed. Here is a second one who had understood that when you go out with a commander, you can benefit from the cozy bed in the single room of this one.

Pushing the wrist of the door, she advanced into the various corners of the ship. Knowing the way by heart, she greeted the few watch pirates of that night who changed roles and brought out a mischievous smile when she saw that Teach was on watch that night, she did not like him and was happy to know that he would be alone in the cold for the night.

Suddenly a howl was heard. She was scared in the act but changed her mind, it wasn't the little storm outside that would get the better of the big ship that was the Moby Dick. Reassured to still be inside in this weather, she forgot for a while the freshness that gnawed at her.

After a few steps, she arrived in the corridor reserved for commanders, they had certain privileges, and noticed that the back door was surrounded by a light. Marco was still working. But hey, tonight she wouldn't lecture him, she absolutely had to get warm under her lover's real duvet.

She opened the right door, and there, misfortune. She didn't notice the shadow of a duvet in the bed, nor in the bedroom. His stupid match simply slept in his underwear despite the apparent cold.

- But how hot are you? She sighed.

Then she said to herself that if her lover was hot despite this weather, he must have a hot body. And if he had a hot body, she didn't see why she wouldn't take advantage of it.

So stepping over the mess that she did not try to determine, she leaned her hand on her lover's bed and stepped over him in turn to pass on his side. She liked to hug him by wrapping her arms around his abs when his back was to her, but she preferred to feel reassured and warm surrounded by his arms, so she leaned her back against his chest.

Come to think of it, she and Ace had never done anything. In terms of love. They ate their meals side by side, spent the evenings of card games or those with alcohol together, sought to join the other when he had not been seen for a while and she liked to sit between his legs in the back of the boat every evening to watch the sunset. But they had never kissed and had never taken the next step. Although the woman knew what Ace's curves looked like since he was never very dressed.

Suddenly she thought maybe she shouldn't do this. Be with him in his bed right now, he surely wouldn't blame him but hadn't given his opinion. He was therefore not in shorts but in underpants, even more naked than usual. Thinking about it, her face took on a rosy hue.

But reason had gotten the better of her, such had been her role: to bring the little misplaced spirit back to its place.

So she pulled away from his chest, lost the warmth he had given her for a few minutes, and prepared to turn back.

But against all odds, she had felt supplied to him, had taken her from his arms on her stomach, had glued her back to her human radiator. The two hands had tightened even more around her body, rejoicing between them and imprisoning her in the arms of her lover.

- Ace ?

She received no response. Would he have surrendered immediately because of his seizures? Or had he brought her back to him unconsciously? No one would know.

- I knew it ! Izo, Vista! Bring back your Berry that I won! shouted the cook to his brothers, opening the door of the last captain not yet up.

It seems that some had bet on a couple.

BASICS

Her name is Queen.

She is part of the Heart pirates.

Law saved her life once and she devoted herself to him and the crew.

Queen had a bounty before she met the Heart pirates.

'Queen of hearts ♔'

She may have had a thing for ripping out the hearts of a couple of assholes that did wrong on her eyes.

No devil fruits, no powers, just raw force.

Pure coincidence that she ended with the heart pirates after she got her nickname, but the crew loved it and liked to tease her about it.

'It's destiny our dear queen!'

'Shut the fuck up Penguin'

The crew also loves to call her 'queenie' (minus Law ofc)

ACEEEE

The air around the room was thick and musty with a stench of blood and sweat, bloodcurdling screams can be heard in all directions, begging, pleading for mercy. A place where no hope could bloom, and for where hell rules in itself.

Impel Down.

Her steps echoed against the thick cold walls, painfully slow, as though each cells and prisoners kept inside isn't bothering her not even a bit. Loud booming voices accompanied with undignified cat calls reach her ears in a displeasing manner, as though they find her easy to mess with. Indeed her beauty was something that draws people for attention, and she finds lots of uses for it, but she never took pride from her looks alone.

As she continued down the path, her long pristine coat flows behind her gracefully, like a royal's robe, at the mere sight alone, the prisoners' voices was silenced down in a deafening halt. They bit their tongue in nothing but pure fear, every cell in their body screaming for them to move as far away as possible.

Her steps halted once she's arms reach from a prison cell that contains the person she wanted to see.

The cell was dark, cold, the sound of the muted seawater encircling around the vicinity can be heard, instilling distant fears among its prisoners. However, the lone man sat on the corner held by chains around his wrists, never finds it the least bit terrifying nor it amuses him. His head was strung low, his dark fringe matted with sweat hid his eyes, but it's enough for her to notice that he's conscious, despite all the bruises and wounds from all the beating and torture he went through for who knows how long.

"Portgas."

Her voice, it was calm, and brave. A tone something you would only hear from a person when they feel at ease. But at the same time it was commanding, sending chills down the spine of any person who hears it.

"______." her first name rolls around his tongue with such familiarity as though he had chanted this before like an endless mantra. He soon lifted his head slowly, a playful smirk tugging the corners of his lips.

"I thought you never want to see me again?" he asks, his voice was suggesting a tone of amusement, someone in his condition shouldn't possess.

Disregarding the way the man refers her, the woman took a step forward, her eyes staring straight to his own.

"I'm surprised you've been holding on." She stated simply, a feeble way to irritate the grown man,

Her words however can only emit a gleeful chuckle from him. "You know all too well I'm not an easy kill." He retorts back, amusement dripping from his voice.

The woman was silent for a moment, the air was turning thick between them.

She gritted her teeth slightly, hands balling up in tight fists. The raven noticed her sudden distress, but he couldn't risk asking her why, no words left his mouth, he can only stare at her frame, standing tall before him. One wouldn't even notice the slight shake of her shoulders, and her tensed breathing, But Ace was always known to notice even the littlest of details, and she wasn't an exception, no. not for him.

"You knew all too well you fucked up."

Blunt as always,

It just never fails to amuse him.

Although in pain, the male laughs heartily, his voice echoes around the room that haven't heard such a gleeful laugh for who knows how long, some prisoners might mistook it as a laugh of someone who finally lost their sanity... and maybe it's only a matter of time before he did. Or maybe he finally does.

"...I know."

Portgas D. Ace x Reader

A/n: Random desire to write something suddenly overtook me so apologies in advance for the rushed work. Drabble fluff with very brief barely there suggestive undertones.

Masterlist

Ace X Fem!Nurse!Reader

Modern AU!

Genre: Comfort, fluff.

Summary: Ace comforting his s/o after a long day at work.

It’s not as long as I originally planned however it seemed to flow better ending the way it did.  Thanks to my first winner for being so patient and I hope you enjoy this. 

It’d been a long day.  No that wasn’t quite right because for you everyday was a long day which meant today had just been longer than the rest.  What was originally supposed to be an eight hour shift had turned into a twelve hour shift and while you didn’t mind your shifts getting prolonged every so often, this was the fourth day in a row it’d happened.  Honestly the only thing keeping you going now was the fact that you’d been promised tomorrow off.  Supposedly you were supposed to have the next two days off but with the loss of two nurses it was hard for the hospital to guarantee they wouldn’t call you in.  At least you had the rest of tonight-hopefully-there had to be some kind of rule against them calling you in again today.

Unlocking your front door and stepping into your apartment you were immediately welcomed by the smell of miso and some kind of meat.  Shutting your eyes and quickly kicking off your shoes you took a deep breath, inhaling as much of the smell as you could.  

“Ace?” Stepping into the kitchen you couldn’t help but smile at the sight. Ace standing in front of the stove cooking what you could only imagine was miso pork; however the dish wasn’t what had you smiling not that you weren’t looking forward to it.  

“The apron suits you.”

“I think so too.” Ace responded with a lopsided grin, “How was work?”

Sighing and leaning back against the counter you shrugged, “Long.” Obviously there was more to your day but most of it consisted of mundane task or dealing with patients and right now you really didn’t want to talk or think about any of that. Ace seemed to understand though because rather than push the subject he simply nodded before moving onto the next subject, which was dinner.

It wasn’t too unusual for Ace to cook but between both of your hectic schedules it was far more common for the two of you to just order out.  There were now take out restaurants that either recognized your phone numbers or voices because whenever one of you called they always greeted you by name.  

“Let me get changed and then we can eat.”

Not bothering to wait for a response you headed into your bedroom, stripping yourself of your scrubs before you even entered.  At this point in time taking your scrubs off felt just as good as taking your bra off.  Okay well obvious the latter was still one of the best feelings in the world but the relief that came along with stripping yourself of your scrubs was pretty amazing too. Tossing your dirty clothes into an already overflowing hamper you grabbed a pair of shorts and one of Ace’s old shirts before flopping face first onto the bed.  You knew Ace was waiting with dinner but you just needed a minute. Shutting your eyes, you simply laid there and let your body and mind relax.  The last few days had been too much.  

Hospitals were always short staffed regardless of how many they employed but never in all your years working there had things been quite this bad, though considering it was the peak of flu season it really wasn’t all that surprising how chaotic things were at the moment.  

“So this is what you consider getting changed?”

Not bothering to lift your head or turn it to the side you replied, “I’m working on it.”

You definitely were not.

Feeling the bed dip besides you, you sighed and muttered out an apology though you still made no effort to move.  For a while the both of you were quiet-you just unwinding from the last few days and Ace just sitting there keeping you company as you did so.  It wasn’t like this was the first time you’d run yourself so ragged and while Ace understood what a hard worker you were he really did have an issue with you exhausting yourself this much, which is why when you left for the bedroom he grabbed your phone from the counter and shut it off.  He’d plugged it into the charger too but there was no way he was letting you get called back in tonight or on your days off.  He’d even gone as far as to take the two days off himself so the two of you could actually spend some time together and so he could stop you from going back to work.  

“Hey, don’t fall asleep yet you gotta eat.” Ace said nudging your side a bit, “Come on get dressed and let’s eat then you can pass out, I’ll even put on a movie for you to fall asleep to.”

“No because if I fall asleep you’re going to complain tomorrow.”

With a lot more convincing from him you eventually managed to get dressed and find your way to living room, where Ace had moved your dinner.  

“What’s the movie?” You asked as you took a seat besides him on the couch.

“Thatch gave it to me a week ago but I don’t remember the name-supposed to be about pirates or something though.” He answered while handing you a very filled plate of food.  Glancing down at you and seeing your face he spoke up again, “I’ll eat whatever you don’t finish don’t worry.”

“You eating that much just gives me something else to worry about.” You muttered after taking a bite of food, “You eat yourself into a coma sometimes.”

“Ah that’s no big deal after all gramps does the same thing and he’s ancient.”

With a slight twitch of the eye you decided to let he subject drop, not just because you were too tired but because you knew it wasn’t a debate you’d win. Plus despite eating himself into a deep sleep at almost every meal Ace was healthy-probably healthier than you to be honest.  Nodding as a means of conceding you continued eating, occasionally questing Ace about the movie and his day.  The movie was about several different pirate crews all in search of a single treasure-though none of them knew where to actually find it as there were no maps leading to it.  As for Ace’s day..well it’d been interesting to say the least.  

Their boss was away for business and work had been slow so Ace and the rest of the crew had started a sort of prank war with each other which Izo had surprisingly won.  You were impressed and slightly jealous.  You’d always envied the relationship Ace had with his coworkers, because really they were more like friends or family and the same couldn’t be same about your peers. Regardless of that though, hearing he had a fun day made you smile.  

“I can’t believe Izo won.”  Placing your half-filled plate on top of Ace’s empty one you chuckled, “You’re losing your touch.”

Ace gasped and looked at you with wide eyes as he feigned hurt which only made you laugh harder.  

Ace let you laugh for some time only clearing his throat once your laughter started to die down, “I want you to know you’ve just started a fight you won’t win.”

“I mean if Izo beat you out in a prank war-“

“-A fight you can’t win!” Ace interrupted, grabbing your previous plate before scarfing down the rest of the food on it, “Consider this your last meal.” He said between bites.  

“If it’s my last meal I want to eat more of it.” Ace easily dodged your attempts to get your food back though, not like you were trying all that hard to begin with.   Once he finished he grabbed the plates and headed into the kitchen.

“I’ll wash them tomorrow!” You yelled.

“I’m just putting them in the washer!”

“Rinse them first then!”

“Then what’s the point of the washer?!”

“Ace!”

“Too late!”

Huffing and turning back to the movie you grabbed a nearby pillow and hugged it closely to your body.  You didn’t know why you rinsed the dishes before putting them in either but you remember your parents always doing it so you’d always assumed you just had to. Maybe it was because the washer couldn’t always get the grime all of?  If that was the case though then what was the  point of the washer in the first place. Shaking your head you focused back on the movie.  

“Back.” Plopping down besides you and snatching the pillow away Ace pulled you into his lap, getting comfortable himself and then allowing you to get comfortable.  

“I was comfy.”

“And now you’re comfier.”

Well, you couldn’t argue with that.

After the first movie finished you started the next one, and it wasn’t until the third started that you started to get sleep, the last few days finally catching up with you.  If it wasn’t for Ace playing with your hair and rubbing circles onto your back you probably would’ve made it through the third movie however you dozed off and wound up missing the first half of the movie.  

“Ace whose the good guy?” You asked, voice heavy with sleep.

“The one in orange.”

“Mmm, weird color for a good guy.”

“So good guys can’t wear orange?”  He questioned only looking down when he didn’t receive an answer.  You’d fallen asleep again but unlike before your breaths were much steadier and deeper.  Looking over your face he couldn’t help but shake his head at how tired you looked.  He’d noticed it the other day but it somehow seemed worst now, maybe because you’d finally stopped trying to keep going and were finally letting yourself rest.  

Turning the TV off and picking you up with ease Ace headed into the bedroom.

He’d been worried you’d have to stay late tonight too and wind up missing dinner like last night.  He knew you’d eaten some leftovers this morning because he’d put everything away the night prior but he was pretty sure you’d forgotten lunch.  

Hypocrite.  Working as a nurse and lecturing people about taking better care of themselves when she was barely doing the same for herself.  

Laying back on the bed Ace sighed and pulled the blankets over himself before grabbing onto you once again and bringing you closer.  

“Idiot, you need to take care of yourself too.” He quietly muttered.

“I am.” Came your sleepy reply.

“Liar.”

“Not.”

“Mhm, sure.”  He waited a few minutes for your response, not wanting to miss it if you did happen to wake up again, “So now you’re really asleep.”
