A/N: I'll admit right now, most of these are AceLu. I'm a big AceLu shipper, as are many of my friends/followers, who were requesting the ships for this collection. Without checking I would estimate about a third of these are AceLus, while the other two thirds are various other pairings. Also, does anyone have any input on what time of day I should be updating? Please give suggestions relative to when this was posted (IE "please post a few hours later/earlier") rather than "post in mornings/evenings please," because, y'know, time zones.
Ace was running laps when Luffy appeared at his side.
"Hi, Ace!" the boy greeted, making Ace jump.
"Gah! Luffy, what are you doing here?!"
"Math is boring," Luffy answered, "so I didn't go and came here instead." He was keeping the up at a very impressive rate, considering Ace was a varsity track runner and Luffy wasn't on any sports teams.
"Jesus, Lu, you can't just skip math!" Ace berated, still running. "Besides, you're going to distract me."
Luffy pouted. "Come on~!"
"No."
Luffy pouted even more, but didn't deviate from running right at Ace's side.
"Go back to math, Luffy!"
Luffy did not go back to math. In fact, he grabbed Ace's hand, and dragged him to a secluded spot behind the nearest building. He nearly pulled Ace's arm out of its socket doing so.
"Lu—" Ace started, but Luffy cut him off by pushing him back against the wall. "Lu…"
Luffy stood on his toes, just enough so that his breath brushed over Ace's lips. "I'm gonna distract you, huh?" he asked leadingly.
"Now isn't the time…" Ace tried weakly.
Luffy leaned in just long enough to give Ace a tiny peck on the lips. "Are you sure?"
"…No," he admitted, looking away.
Luffy snickered, and then closed what was left of the gap between them. After a second, Ace wrapped his arms around Luffy's waist in kind.
Luffy never did go back to math class.
