Title: Alone
Disclaimer: I do not and will never own One Piece
Pairing: Smoker x Ace
A lone ship floats atop the murky waters of the ocean. And like the sun her crew has retired for the day, giving way to the gentle moonlight and silence the night brings. The whole ship is silent and a single light can be seen coming from the ship. The figure of a man is silhouetted in the dim candlelight. He sits alone at his desk, staring at the wrinkled wanted poster in his hand. The picture on stares at him, taunting him, reminding him of what he could never have again. Reminding him that there would be no more late night visits, no more falling asleep in food, no more fiery kisses, no longer would he be able to hear his laughter. What awaited him now was a cold bed and defining silence. He sighs quietly before laying the poster back down on his desk. He rans his fingers through his short white hair and replaces the cigars in this mouth, burnt out several hours ago. He spares a glance over at his bed in the other corner of his room before dismissing any thought of sleep; he had to be up in a few hours anyway. He turns back to the poster and whispers a name, the name of the man he had loved and lost. "….Ace…"
