Hello everyone!

I am sorry XD

Posted the Prologue and didn't continue it for five months. Sorry, once again.

So, please enjoy the first real chapter :)

Disclaimer: One Piece still doesn't belong to me!

One week later

Yesterday, Sabo came back from his stay abroad und brought many souvenirs and little things back for Luffy, Ace and their friends. They made a big feast according to Luffy's wishes. To the amusement of the bigger brothers and sadly to their purses they always have to do these feasts or Luffy will go on a rampage and always rant that 'You don't really love me.'

Nevertherless, even though they have celebrated Sabo's return, it wasn't an excuse to not appear to work on the next day. It is the hateful Monday of the new week.

A few days ago, Ace went to fetch his car from the mechanic Franky. Sadly, he only could say that the time of his car was over. With a heavy heart Ace said good-bye to his first car which accompanied him since high school and gave Franky the permission to do anything he wanted to do with it.

That was the reason, why he once again has to use the public transport. This time however, he uses the subway. On the weekend he researched a quicker way to the Whitebeard Company which he has to use for who knows how long till he could buy a new car.

This will take so much time, work and money till I can afford a new car.

Ace sighes inwardly.

As he finally reached the building he greets everyone in the lobby before going straight to his office. In his office he sat himself immediately at his table, turned on the computer and searched for his schedule today.

On his to-do-list was listed an important meeting where he has to be present, which he doesn't understand why, though Marco insisted. 'If you want to rise in your career you have to take every opportunity and time you have to reach this goal', was what Marco said.

Next on his list are normal office tasks. With new motivation, after he drinks his coffee he made after looking through his to-do-list he started to work. It is going to be a long day, but Ace was in a good mood today.

Finally, it was 6 o'clock, the time where his workday ends. "Whoop!" Ace shouts and pumps his fists into the air. Opposite of him Marco chuckles and shakes his head in amusement because of Ace's behavior.

Quickly, Ace saves all the work he had done today, shuts down the computer and puts his jacket back on. While making himself ready for the way back home he asks Marco why he isn't going home. "Marco, why don't you finish your work to go back home? Normally you are always the one who has done his work one hour before end of the working day." Marco only shakes his head 'no', his eyes still trained on the screen of the computer before replying, "Today I work overtime. I have to go through some important documents Oyaji gave to me."

With an understanding nod Ace retreats from the office and waves goodbye before stepping into the elevator. With a deep breath he took in the sight of the sky when he walks out of the office. Making his way to the station of the subway he sees something known.

It is a black BMW standing on the place in front of the building. Ace immediately knows whose car it is. The window on the passenger's side is lowered and Ace can recognize who the driver is. It is the doctor Trafalgar Law, who salutes the man looking through the lowered window. "Good evening, Ace-ya." Greets the doctor. Politely, Ace replies back, "Good evening, Trafa-" A glare from the doctor made Ace remind the reason of the glare, "I-I mean, Law! Sorry again." Ace apologizes with a light embarrassed blush on his face. However, he quickly calmed down and with a curious gaze locks eyes with Law and asks what is the reason he was standing here.

"Actually, I was waiting for you." Surprised by the answer he gets, he asks further. "Why were you waiting for me? And how did you know when my work is ending?"

With a grin on his face Law opens the door and ushers Ace to sit in the car before answering his question.

"I've got a friend working here and he also knows you, that's how I know your ending time. I know that your car was to be repaired but that its lifetime is over. That is the reason why I am here. I wanted to take you home. Are you alright with this arrangement?" Law asks back.

At first, Ace only looks at Law with big eyes like a deer at the headlights, because Law isn't a caring person. He is only caring towards his friends in the hospital.

However, who says no to this, although it comes from a person like Law. And it must be noted that Ace won't say 'no' to Law. Averting his eyes away from the doctor and instead to the street ahead from, Ace replies, "Yes, of course I'm alright with this, Law."

Satisfied with the answer, Law instructs Ace to buckle up and starts the engine of his car to drive them home.

After half an hour they reach their home. Law parks his car in front of his garage before both step out of the car and Law locks it up. Polite as Ace is he thanks Law with a bow and a, "Thank you, Law!", on his lips. Ace takes a few steps to the direction of his house and turns his head to Law and wishes him a 'Good evening!' Though, Law insists to walk Ace to the front door of his house.

"No, you don't have to. I only have to cross the street and I am already there. But, thank you." With this said Ace makes his way to his house.

Still, Law waits till Ace stepped into his house before he himself retreats back to his own four walls.

Ace walks the step up to the mailbox and takes out the mail he got the last days. Finally, he reaches his living room and throws himself on his big couch, his bag next to his couch table and the mail on it. He rests a few minutes before he opens his eyes and took his mail in his hand to go sporadically through them. One of the letters is very noticeable. It only has his name on it, no information about the sender is written. Only his name.

Portgas D. Ace

Before opening the letter Ace looks at his surroundings. Then he lays his eyes again on the unopened envelope. With trembling fingers he ripped the envelope open and unfolded the letter.

Dear, my Ace!

Yesterday you looked gorgeous again. I saw how you had a party with your family and friends. You look so beautiful when you smile, when you laugh, when you go through your hair with your hand, when you dance.

However, there are things I don't like. That you don't lie in my arms. That you aren't close to me. You don't know how much I wish that you are mine. How much I wish that you lie under me, drowning in pleasure, shouting and calling my name.

Then to wake up with you, right next to me, smiling this smile to me. Only me!

I see it! I see when you talk to this FUCKING doctor! How you talk to him, blushing like a little school girl in front of her crush! I forbid you to be close to him, talk to him or to look at him!

YOU are MINE ACE! MINE!

Please, Ace. I love you so much, I don't want to lose to someone else. Don't we love each other? I know you do. I always see you smile when you look at me.

So please, be faithful to me.

Your love

Motionless, Ace read the letter. Hectic he walks to the window and searches the street for a strange figure standing there. Though, there was no one.

Shaking like a leaf, Ace looked at the letter again.

Another one…
