Chapter Twenty-Six: Code Names

Here is the third to last chapter! I had this one just sitting around for a while so it's nice to finally have it up.

This chapter is based off the otp prompt blog from Tumblr. The next one will be also so get ready for that.

*Haruta and Ace go up to Marco* "Tell us what happened!"

Marco: "I said no."

Haruta: "Tell us or I'll mess up your paperwork!"

"It's finished already."

"Then I'll make Ace burn your hair off!"

Ace: "What?! Well, I would enjoy that but…"

Marco: "Wouldn't be the first time."

"…it's already been done. By accident of course."

Haruta: "When was that?! I could've taken pictures!"

Ace: "Remember during winter when he kept wearing hoodies even when we were inside?"

"Oh~. So that's why- hey, where'd he go?!"

"Damn it, we got distracted! Way to go, Haruta!"

*Marco chuckled as he watched the two bicker from the crow's nest*

Guys, stop interrupting my top A/N's, that's what the bottom ones are for -.-

Anyway, Happy Birthday to StarPurpleandBlue and Spiritangel1998! ^-^/~

Enjoy! ^-^

Summary for all chapters: More MarcoxThatch One-Shots. Some will be AU, some will not or they can go either way :P Some will be with the two just being friends or being dorks or whatever I feel like writing :P

Summary for this chapter: Your OTP as spies arguing over walkie-talkies about designated code-names.

Disclaimer: One Piece belongs to Eiichiro Oda~! :D

"Thatch to Blue-Jay, are you there?" Thatch asked pressing the talk button on the walkie-talkie he currently held in his hand.

"Stop calling me Blue-Jay." Marco responded. "What if I called you Platypus?"

"No way! Call me-"

"Bread head?"

"You call me that and I'll call you 'Yellow Canary' for the rest of this mission. Call me… Monsieur Pompadour! Mwahaha!"

Marco rolled his eyes. "Fine, Thatchy. Are you ready?"

"Yes, Monsieur Pineapple."

"Don't call me that."

"Don't call me Thatchy. You're name can be Mar-Mar."

"No. Call me Phoenix."

"No, that's too obvious."

"It's cool."

"It can be Blue Jay."

"Platypus."

"Yellow Canary!"

"Thatchy!"

"Mar-Mar!"

"Loaf head!"

"Pineapple head!"

"What're you two doing?"

Marco and Thatch turned to the voice which belonged to Ace.

"Why are you guys using walkie-talkies when you're right next to each other?"

"We're pretending to be spies." Thatch answered simply.

"Oi, don't say it like I wanted to do this! I was persuaded!" Marco defended himself.

"Of course you were." Ace said sarcastically and then went to raid the fridge.

"To be continued for next time." Marco told Thatch once Ace was in the kitchen.

"Works for me. Blue Jay!" Thatch fled to the kitchen.

Marco followed. "Platypus!"

Ace started laughing which earned him a bump on the head from Thatch and Marco.

Really short but it was good right? I laughed so hard when I wrote 'Monsieur Pompadour' XD It even rhymes! XD For those who don't know it means 'Mr.' in French, lol. I can see Thatch running a blog or something and calling himself that XD

Sorry for typos and stuff and the next chapter will be out in a few hours or so.

*Izou enters the kitchen and goes up to Thatch* "You're making more food?"

Thatch: "Yes and no I'm not telling you anything about the sparklers."

"You don't have to. Ace and Haruta got Marco to tell them and they told me."

*Thatch stops what he's doing to look at Izou* "Really? They told you that you're obviously lying?" *Thatch smirks at the last part*

"The hell?! What gave it away?!"

"You. I just took a swing at it and you just got hit by the sword."

*Izou goes up to Thatch threateningly* "Listen, you. It's nearly impossible to keep secrets on this ship without anyone else finding out. I'm sure there's a third wheel." *Izou backs away* "And I'm gonna find out who it is." *He smirks and then leaves*

*Thatch doesn't know how to react but then smirks also* 'Good luck cuz there is no third wheel.' *Laughs to himself*

Hm… Is there a third wheel? Will Izou find out who it is? Will Marco eventually come down from the crows nest? Will Haruta and Ace find out that I just gave away Marco's hiding spot?

Haruta and Ace: "Huh?"

On the crows nest you idiots!

*They look up and see Marco*

"There you are! Thanks, Veve!"

Marco: "Veve, you traitor!" *Quickly dodges a flame thrown by Ace* "Watch it, Ace!"

Will Marco be able to escape Ace's and Haruta's wrath even though he can fly?

Marco: "Stop it!"

Stay tuned and don't forget to review, please! XD
