Hello! :P this is a story for MatchboxLuffy! I've decided to make this multi-chap! NOTICE THE NAME CHANGE? Originally WinglessFairydrops/theBlackEmpress

P.S. MatchboxLuffy, did you want this to be Ace/Luffy?

P.P.S I'm sorry it took so long! I no longer have access to computers and my tab is too slow to work on, which leads to me feeling like I should do something else. The true cause? Laziness.

Disclaimer: I do not own OP

Ace, 22, was an average man, of average height, average intelligence (though others think differently) and of average weight. Everything was average. He had brown hair, brown eyes, freckles. Sure, he had a pretty nice body, but then again, for someone his age, it was average.

He lived in an average apartment, which averagely had two bedrooms, with an average amount of furniture.

His housemate wasn't average. No, Trafalgar Law was just downright creepy.

Law, 22 as well, was not very average, though his height was average at least. He was skinny and extremely intelligent. Tattoos ran down his body. Oh, Ace had tattoos too. An average sized tattoo, on his averagely muscled arm, and another average tattoo, on his averagely broad back. Law had a small beard, and dark under-eye circles. Law had a pretty nice body, though below average, as his strength was his intelligence.

It wasn't like Ace wanted to be average, he didn't want to fit in, but he stood out for fitting in so well.

One night, when Ace was eating an averagely cooked meal, the doorbell rang. He stood up from the table and walked to the door, at average speed. Law never answered the door, he was up in his room, probably dissecting something or someone for that matter, Ace didn't want to know.

"What do you want?" He asked, opening the door, to see nothing outside.

A little hiccup and gurgle drew his attention to a small bundle on his porch.

Ace looked down and his eyes widened.

There was a freaking babyon his porch.

"What the fu-" he began, staring at the baby through widened eyes.

The baby in the bundle of towels caught sight of him and his eyes widened, before his mouth stretched into a wide grin.

At that moment, Ace was mesmerized. He knelt down and picked up the baby, careful not to drop it or hit it, that was when he noticed the small slip of paper in between the folds of the towels.

He took the small piece of paper and the baby, and went inside, setting them down on the couch. He picked up the slip of paper and read it.

'To Portgas D. Ace,

Your father and I have entrusted you with this child. Please take care of him, as we can't at the moment… We hope we didn't cause any inconvenience!

-Portgas D. Rouge'

He set the paper down, shaking.

"I'm your freaking son, and you leave a freaking baby with me?! Of course it causes a damn inconvenience!"

He took the note again, and flipped to the back, hoping it was a joke, or that it held more information. He was relieved when he saw writing on the back, but the relief soon turned into anger.

'Yo! Take care of him good, 'kay?

His name is Monkey D. Luffy!

Good luck! :P :D

-Gol D. Roger'

Ace scrunched up the paper and threw it into the bin, before sitting down beside the baby and looking at it.

"Monkey D. Luffy, huh?"

The baby happily gurgled.

It might not be so bad after all.

"Oh? I sensed another being's presence in the house. Who's that?" Law appeared from the stairway, walking over, his hand on the suspicious sword he always had on him.

Ace, feeling a sense of protection, jumped in front of Luffy.

"He's my little brother, what do you want to do to him?"

"Hm? Just saying high to my new housemate, why?"

Ace growled at him, warning him to back off.

Law only smirked, before turning around and walking away.

Ace looked down at the baby behind him and was relieved to see it still intact.

That's when the baby started crying.

Ace cringed at the sound of the cries, getting louder by the second.

He was frantically thinking of what to do.

"He's probably hungry, you know."

Apparently, Law hadn't left yet.

Ace turned to glare at him.

"Well? What the hell do I feed him?"

Law looked at him through amused eyes, probably judging his stupidity.

"You don't know? Go to the fridge, I think I have a can of leftover baby food in there."

Ace immediately stood up and walked over to the fridge, not even wanting to know why Law had baby food.

He quickly scanned through the different sections of the fridge, before his eyes fixed themselves on a small can that was labelled "Tuna and Mayonnaise for Growing Babies". He picked it up and walked over to the counter, before reading the instructions and doing as it said. He took the small bowl of baby food to the living room, where Law and Luffy were. By the time he was done, Luffy had quietened down and Law was looking at him, an amused smirk on his face. Ace almost growled at the closeness of the two. He sat down next to Law and Luffy, effectively blocking the two of them from each other. He sent a glare at Law whose smirk only widened.

"What a protective brother, I'm so jealous~" Law proceeded to reach around behind Ace and stroked Luffy's forehead. Ace immediately swung his arm around and stopped Law's tattooed fingers from touching Luffy. Law merely blinked.

"Well, I have things to do, people to meet, places to go-"Ace snorted. As if. Law turned and glared at him. "-So I'll be off." Law finished before standing up and heading upstairs again. As Law disappeared from around the corner, Ace turned to Luffy. Luffy was exactly how Ace left him, lying on his back and staring at Ace with big, black eyes. Ace sighed before picking him up and bringing him upstairs to his room. Opening the door with one hand and gently kicking it close, he placed Luffy on his bed and went to change. Coming back from the wardrobe in a much more comfortable outfit which consisted of a black T-shirt and loose, grey tracksuit pants, he walked over to the bed where Luffy was still lying, eyes impossibly wide and little mouth split into a toothless grin. Ace couldn't help but smile back. The little brat may have just wormed his way into Ace's heart already.

Nya. I'm sorry it's so short and took so long DX. I want to make this AcexLuffy, but AGE GAP. Shota-complex maybe? Or maybe I can change Ace's age. Totally up to you, MatchboxLuffy XD

I wanted to make this way longer but I kind of wanted to put this up so MatchboxLuffy knows there's actually SOMETHING written down.

-Sob- I'm sorry.
