"Thatch yoi. Have you seen Ace?" The cook faced me while wiping his hand with a dish cloth.
"Nope. Haven't seen that sucker for a while." I groaned and head out. Did he leave us again? I proceeded to the back part of the ship where Ace's Striker is. As I walked towards the back part of the ship, I heard someone laughing. Threading my way through the sound, I saw Teach and Ace having a good time with each other. With their backs facing me, I guessed they are fishing.
"Zeyahaha! That is so insane!" Seeing Ace this happy with Teach, made me wonder why. He just met Teach. I mean I can accept if he is with Thatch, Izou, Haruta, Jozu, Vista or me. Especially me. I'm always there for him. When he fell asleep while we were waiting for his answer whether he will join or not, I was the one who caught him. I was with him when he woke up. Haruta even dragged him into his pranks. Izou made him some clothes to try on.
"Marco?" My thoughts were interrupted when I heard Ace called out my name. He was probably wondering why I was there.
"Didn't find you in your room so I thought I'd find you here yoi." He stood up and fixed himself. I was wrong about fishing. They weren't doing anything. Wow. So they just became together without any reason.
"Sorry. You thought I would be here because you think I might leave." I sighed and turned my back on him.
"Yeah I did yoi. But since Teach has been accompanying you then I have no doubts that you will leave this ship." I walked away as soon as I ended my statement.

"Hey Ace, you ok?" I looked at Teach and smiled.
"Yeah… I mean why not?" The man laughed at me and stood up. Before leaving, he glanced at me.
"You're an eye-catching person you know that?" I wondered.
"What do you mean?" Again, he just laughed before leaving me. I glanced down at my body and realize that, I am not wearing any shirt. My upper body is obviously exposed. I can feel my face started to heat up. Damn.
After I got a shirt from the room, I went out into the deck. My back is starting to ache so I went into the infirmary to get some morphine. It's not that hard to find it. It was just currently displayed. I looked around and saw none of the nurses. I took a syringe with morphine in it and injected it into my skin.
"Hey Ace! Let's spar!" The mustache man grinned as I draw my dagger.
"Let's dance, flower." I charged towards him with an incredible speed. He crossed his swords to block my attacks.
The sparring lasted for a while until I got thrown across the deck. Sad to say, I haven't used my devil fruit during the fight. Setting my whole body with fire, I charged towards him. He covered himself with petals of flowers but that is not going to protect him.

A loud explosion shook my room. I got up from my chair and went out. The shaking obviously came from the deck. Running towards the direction of the deck, the smell of something burning made me wonder. Did Ace attacked Pops? But I am pretty sure that Ace is not a fool to attacked Pops. I breathe for air as soon as I reached the deck. My brothers are also wondering what happened as the smoke slowly clears out revealing two figures. The smoke clears out, revealing Ace and Vista panting.
"You're good Ace. Why not join the family and be a division commander?" Ace grinned and sheathed his dagger as I stood beside Pop's chair watching and waiting for his answer.
"Zeyahaha! That is a nice show Portgas!" I clenched my fist as I saw Teach walking towards Ace. He put an arm around the kid's shoulder. I was hoping that he will pushed the man away but instead he… smiled. I looked away.
"Marco my son, what's wrong?" I sighed and shook my head.
"Nothing Pops." I heard laughter making me return my attention towards the two.
"Well, as long as you're here then I'll stay." My jaw dropped. He… will stay… as long as Teach is here. I gritted my teeth. Why Ace? Why did you accept when he asked? Why didn't you accept when I asked? Do yoy like Teach? With that thought I turned and walked away.
