AN: After a long time, I was able to finally update this. No excuse, just me being lazy, mental blocked and busy with life. So, yeah. Anyways, not gonna rant too much.
BTW, I will be making this in a fast paced story, so, yeah...
===XXX===XXX===XXX===
After Hancock and her sisters left, everyone pretty much resumed their party. Why would they dwell on something not too important anyways? After sometime midnight, many guests decided to leave. Those who left were businessmen and socialites and those who remained are dancing in the make shift dance floor.
Once the music starts off, Ann dragged Marco to the dance floor to dance, or more like flirtatious dancing as she keeps sending suggestive looks at Marco. Often than not, his hand wanders lower than her waist.
"Keep that, yoi. And I will make sure to fuck you harder than ever." Marco whispered to her but they kept their pace of dancing.
Ann laughed seductively, the alcohol she took is making her bolder than ever. She loved how Marco growled on her ear, making promises for later tonight.
"Ah, what if I want you to do that?" Their faces are closer than ever while they keep on dancing on the upbeat.
"We are a bit drunk, yoi."
"So?" Ann asked in an innocent manner.
"You really are tempting me." Ann grinned mischievously at her boyfriend. They were in the middle of a hot conversation when she felt someone bumped her at the back. When she turned around, she saw Sab, smirking at her.
"Keep your hands to yourselves. You're in public." Sab said. Behind her is her boyfriend, Kidd, who was in the mood for something sexy tonight.
"We will take your advise if you promise to take it for yourself as well."
Sab only laughed at that. She chose not to say anything and instead, dragged Kidd somewhere else in the dance floor, more like to continue dancing, and yes, they did.
Kidd shoved some men away from Sab, making sure his muscled form is caging her away from the hands of horny men. Sab, a little bit drunk is enjoying the attention Kidd is giving her. She wrapped her arms around his neck and whispered: "You're pretty clingy today."
"No men are allowed to touch you." Kidd said back, sending shivers in her spine.
"But you are a man. What do we do with that?" Sab continues to dance while hugging Kidd.
"You did not let me finish. Except for me, no one else gets to touch you." Sab just smirked at him. He smirked back before claiming her lips without hesitation. A groan escaped Sab's throat, either by surprise or by the fact that she enjoyed the attached lips to hers. She eagerly responded back, coaxing him to deepen the kiss while dancing in the rhythm, or more like grinding.
She could feel his huge calloused hands on her back, firming her ass. He seems to be addicted in covering it with his hands. While they are busy making out, they were unaware that a certain people are watching them. One with an uncaring attitude while the other one has an amused look.
"Shishishi. Sab and Kidd are really getting into the mood." Luffia told Zoro. They were in the very corner of the room, away from the spot light. Like any normal couple, they are attached to each other's body through a very intimate hug. Zoro's hands are wrapped protectively around her stomach while Luffia leans on his chest and is enjoying the feeling of warmth.
"Not just them. Look." Zoro pointed to Ann and Marco who was far more intense than Sab and Kidd.
"Hahaha. Mom would pay billions to see this!"
And your dad will pay trillions to kill them... And also me, for that matter. Zoro did not voice out his opinion(fact). Instead of saying anything, he decided to continue drinking his whiskey bottle. Yes, he is drinking on a bottle. He felt tired refilling his glass every now and then so instead, he asked the bartender to give the entire bottle to him. The staff were baffled when he asked for it, good thing they let him be as someone familiar with his drinking habits told the staff that one bottle won't be enough to make him drunk. Dozens of bottles of whiskey will.
"You are such a drunkard, shishishi." Luffia turned to face Zoro, her hands are now wrapped around his neck as he took one swig of whiskey.
"And you are a glutton." He said as he watched her keep munching on a plate of chicken wings.
They both laughed at each other. This time, Luffia took the bottle and drank one gulp while Zoro took one bite off the chicken wings. As soon as their mouths are empty, they began kissing each other, making out like a normal couple. Their foods and drinks were discarded momentarily in favor of savoring each other's lips. They both smell chicken wings and whiskey but none of them cared and instead, enjoyed the flavorful kiss.
The party went on for hours. Some of the guests are already dead drunk and some are actually sleeping on the floor. Some had the decency to go to their hotel rooms to sleep and some had the indecency to sleep in the bathroom.
Ann and Marco are drunk but the two managed to go upstairs where Marco's hotel room is. And needless to say, the two shared a drunken sex and ended passing out on the couch instead of their bed. Well, what can they say? They were too horny and deemed that the bedroom is too far and they cannot hold it off any longer.
Luffia on the other hand, who did not drink that much still went with a still sober Zoro, but unlike any other couple, the two did not end up having sex. They were taking it slow after all. After taking a shower, Luffia took Zoro's shirt and wore it as a her sleeping clothes while he went half naked, clad only with his boxers. Not like the two minded, after all, the two shared rooms often than not. Sleep became easier for them as they succumb to the warmth of each other.
Sab on the other hand is dead drunk which made Kidd in a very hard position. How hard? Fucking hard! Their make out session did not end just yet when the party was over, instead the two continued to make out in Kidd's hotel room. Kidd is still sober, yes he drank probably dozens of hard drinks, but it is not enough to make him too drunk not to know what he is doing.
As soon as they were inside, he lifted Sab off the ground and almost slammed her back on the wall as they continue to make out. Her dress are in a mess so as his suit. His tie was gone and the buttons of his shirt were ripped open. His kiss went lower to her neck. The sleeve on her right shoulder were already off her shoulders and since this is a plunging neckline, it exposed her right breast for Kidd's eyes to feast on. He growled as he saw how perfect they were. His hands did not hesitate to grab the exposed skin making her moan his name.
They continued to kiss each other out of their minds. Kidd wanted to rip that dress off her and continue this, but he knew that they are both drunk. He does not want this to be a drunken sex and he reckons she might want to remember their first time.
"We gotta stop now and get to sleep." It pained him to say those words. Who wouldn't? Damn! He wanted to continue this and he can imagine how she will looks like, panting and moaning his name underneath him as he plunge his cock inside her. The image is enough to make him hard, but he berated himself for thinking such things in a tight situation such as this.
"B-but vhy? Don't you wanna fuck me?"
"I do, but that can wait when we are both sober enough to remember it well. I want to engrave it in your memory." He said in a husky voice, promising a future adventure for them.
"Okay." Good thing she did not put a fight. He set her down and urged her to get to sleep. She is too drunk to go to shower and might need Kidd's help. Just thinking of seeing her under the shower room might make Kidd's slim resistance to fuck her snap.
She nodded and did not hesitate to remove her dress which made Kidd almost have a nose bleed as she is not wearing anything other than a very sexy lingerie. Of course, she cannot wear brassiere with her plunging neckline dress.
In her drunken state, she went and picked up Kidd's discarded Tee shirt and wore it before going to the bed and instantly, she fell asleep. Kidd sigh upon the sight of her sleeping form. Legs exposed, wearing his shirt and sleeping like an angel. It almost seems like she is seducing him!
He walked towards the bed and tucked her under the blanket then he decided to take a very cold shower to calm her raging bulge. Its been a while since he relieved himself and for once, he did not mind doing so, not when the desire in his mind is right in the same bedroom.
Morning came or more like afternoon. Luffia woke up with Zoro and the feeling she had is filled with contentment and happiness. She is satisfied seeing him and waking up with him. Would it be like this if they get married? Luffia can imagine spending her life with this man, her best friend.
"Don't you have things to do today?" Zoro asked after he took a shower and got dressed. He needs to get dressed first since he has to go to where Luffia's hotel room is, after all, her clothes are there. Luffia also finished her shower and took the clothes Zoro brought over.
"Oh, yeah. We have to prepare for the upcoming fashion show." She remembered. They set it a few days after the race to make sure certain preparations are made.
"Ok, let's get down for a lunch then let's go to Sunny." Luffia beamed with a loud OK before she let Zoro grabbed her hand and led her to elevator.
As they are walking towards the elevator, they came across Ann and Marco, who happened to be just a few doors away from them. They are also dressed properly and looks like they are going down for a lunch. Their faces just says it all, a very refreshed and relaxed faces only screams a very satisfying sex last night or was it early morning? Who knows?
"Ann, you looked totally refreshed this afternoon. Got a good sleep?" Zoro smirked at Ann who was blushing at his connotation. Luffia only chuckled at Ann's response.
"Shut up!"
"Oh, feisty, aren't we? You might as well relax now since sooner or later, you won't be able to." Zoro teased more. Marco only raised an eyebrow in amusement and curiosity with the exchange of words. He very well enjoyed seeing Ann with a flustered face.
"And what do you mean by that?"
"I've been preparing myself for an upcoming doom. They are in a vacation, aren't they? Once it is over, I might as well expect to have a gun straight to my face once their vacation is over. Just be sure you warned Marco." Ann's eyes widened at Zoro's words. Although he appeared to be just joking, but his words held truth behind them.
Shit.
"Huh? Warn me about, yoi?"
Ann's face paled a little. Luffia just smiled widely at the exchange of words while they are in the elevator. Good thing there's just four of them.
"Uh, nothing. Zoro's just messing with me!" Ann immediately dismissed the topic. Good thing that the elevator opened and the four of them continued to get their lunch.
As the four of them are ordering their food, Sab just woke up with a headache. She was the most drunk out of the three, but she can still handle it since she had worse than this. As soon as she woke up, she noticed the hotel room is quite different than what she and her sisters are supposed to have then, she tried to remember what happened last night.
She was so drunk and the last thing she remembered was making out with Kidd in the same room. Instinctively, she looked around and found her dress from last night on the floor. She examined herself, she is wearing Kidd's shirt and she still has underwear on. So, nothing happened aside from the make out? Sab felt a little disappointed.
The opening of the bathroom door woke her from her musings. Kidd walked out, fresh from his shower, with only towel covering his lower part. It gave Sab a very good view, something she appreciated.
"Glad the drunkard is awake." He mocked as he continued to rummage to the clothes he has. Good thing he agreed to have a hotel room reserved for him, otherwise, they would have to drive to his house.
"Yeah, yeah. Whatever." Sab stood and realized that the shirt just barely covers her ass. It is over-sized, but it is not long enough to reach mid thigh. She shrugged. Who cares?
Kidd watched her form and he almost groaned at the sight. The shirt is quite thin, so he can still see that she wears no bra underneath and the shirt gave glimpses of that amazing ass of hers.
"I just got out of the shower, could you refrain from flaunting your skin too much?" Sab was startled at his comment and decided to be mischievous.
"My, my. I am not the only one flaunting too much skin, am I?" She smirked triumphantly as she saw Kidd growled.
"Yeah. keep that up and I might not be able to stop myself like I did last night." he said as he walked to the dressing area of the hotel room. Sab was taken aback by his words. Did he forced himself to stop because she is drunk last night? Although she felt little disappointment, she appreciated the act. Yes, if they are going to do the deed, might as well when she is sober to remember it well.
With a smile, she took a bathrobe to cover herself and waited for Kidd to finish. As soon as he was done, she asked him to get some clothes from their hotel room and he obliged. Once she is properly showered and they are done making out, they decided to get lunch together.
Downstairs, they were able to join Luffia, Zoro, Ann and Marco. As soon as they were done eating, the three sisters decided to go to Sunny building with Zoro in tow. As for Kidd, he has to go back to his house and get his reports for Rayleigh. He remembered that Roger is out for a vacation so they need to wrap up their work for the project. Marco on the other hand needs to continue with his usual business.
As soon as the sisters arrived in Sunny Building, they immediately went to seek Pappagg who, in no doubt waiting for them. The Fashion Show is around the corner. It will be held in Sunny Islands. The guests will be transported via one of their ships so, it will be a grand event to look forward to.
Tabloids have been making a fuzz about the new IT girls of society, namely ASL Sisters. These three girls made a name for themselves, amazed the general people with their professions and achievements.
Ann was praised for her skills in car renovations as well as her car racing skills. Aside from that, she drew the public eye when she started dating Marco who was very famous.
Sab on the other hand was praised for her intelligence as doctor of psychology at such a young age. She also has many collaborations in different organizations that is praise worthy.
Luffia was already recognized due to her early business involvement and entrepreneurship. Although many people criticized her for the speculations that she caused the breakup of Zoro and Tashigi, still, people praised her for her works.
Right now, these news reached the ears of everyone, except for Roger, as Rouge made special effort not to relay any information about their daughters' whereabouts and involvements, specially in the romance department. God knows what he will do once he found out about the three men involved with his precious daughters.
As news spread, more people and reporters are curious about these sisters, like who are their parents, what are their hobbies and any significant matters they can report to the public. Not all of them have good intentions, some of them already saw resemblance of the sisters to Roger and Rouge.
"I am not sure if this type of publicity will only cause good things for the girls." Rayleigh expressed while humming with a heavy thought. The ASL sisters were like his own daughters and he will continue to support them however he can. He is not against their romantic lives, he is just worried of what will happen once they come out as daughters of Roger and Rouge.
Roger did not obtain his current position in the industry without gaining enemies. Enemies strong enough to cause trouble for his children. One of the reasons why Roger also hid the girls from the public is to avoid endangering them. Right now, some of the enemies they have are just waiting in their hideouts, waiting to strike Roger down from his throne. The best way to strike the king down is through his princesses or heiresses.
"The girls are strong enough to handle on their own. They can take care of themselves." Shakky smiled at her husband before pouring him a drink.
"Oh well. Let's just hope that no one is crazy enough to strike the king's princesses. They might be facing a demon if they do so."
===XXX===XXX===XXX===
Two days passed by quickly and in those days, it was enough to finalize everything for the fashion show. Selected reporters are invited to cover the show and they only selected those that they trust.
Guests were transported to Sunny Islands and the manor were prepared well enough to accommodate the guests. Ann invited the Whitebeard executives and most of them came. Sab was able to invite some of his colleagues over.
It will start exactly 6 PM.
"Alright, alright. Get to your positions. We have to do this real quick." Pappagg, the main designer of the fashion show is making sure that everything is perfect as it is. Many big names in the industry will be in the fashion show, he will not permit any imperfections.
"Yosh! I am very excited!" Luffia is getting her hair done while drinking a coffee. Since they will be doing a swimsuit fashion show, there is no need for excessive make up.
"Alright, alright. Enough with that coffee." Ann took the coffee away from Luffia so she could have some. She is so nervous. This will be the first time she will be doing something like this. Despite having a beauty queen turned supermodel mom, none of the sisters are involved in fashion shows. They were more of into athletics rather than fashion.
"How did I agree to this?" Sab was muttering a whine under her breath. She is freaking nervous as well. She can win debates and MMA fights and managed not to get nervous, however this is a different battle. This is a fashion show battle. Damn it! Why did she have to agree with Luffia on this matter? Better question, how did she end up in this situation?
"There is no use whining. You pose to the camera first." Koala, one of the official photographers and news representative flashed her camera to the sisters. Luffia managed to pose with a peace sign while Ann glared at the camera.
"Just think that you are alone, parading your beach body in front of your boyfriend. That will surely help you." Nami added while looking at Sab then to Ann. "They are invited, aren't they?"
"That doesn't make us less nervous at all." Ann answered back. No one dared to comfort the twins any longer. Instead, they are asked to do a video clip for the fashion show.
15 minutes before the official start of the fashion show, the guests are gathered in front of the make shift stage. In front rows were some of the members of the Straw Hats with Marco and Kidd. Some of the Whitebeard executives were behind.
They are excited for the fashion show, specially Izou who was known to be a fashion icon. She is expecting so much from this fashion show.
"Ladies and Gentlemen... In about 10 minutes, we will officially start Crimin Swim Line Fashion Show." There was a cheer once the announcer said this. "Before we start, I'd like to tell each and every one of you that the profits we will receive from the sales of the items will be donated to ASL Sisters Foundation. Many people will benefit from it. We would like to thank the following sponsors: Straw Hats Incorporated led by their vibrant Chairwoman/President/CEO - Ms. Luffia. Mr. Pappagg, Chief Designer of Crimin Brand, the ASL Sisters Foundation leaders, Miss Ann and Miss Sab - Miss Luffia is also part of that. To our guests and models, than you for spending your precious times for this amazing event. We hope that you will enjoy this show. Without further ado, please welcome, Crimin Swim Line Fashion Show!"
A round of applause was provided. The stage went dark and immediately, the sound of an upbeat music started to resonate. Lights were slowly turning on, highlighting the stage.
Ladies, l-l-ladies, l-l-ladies, here we go
Everything is dark except for the one at the end of the stage where they can see the back of a woman wearing red swimsuit.
[Chorus:]
Baby, where'd you get yo body from?
Tell me where'd you get yo body from
Baby, where'd you get yo body from?
Tell me where'd you get yo body from
As soon as the Chorus started, Luffia, the show opener turned around and started to walk like a Supermodel, surprising everyone she knew. After all, she is not know for her feminine side, rather she was known for her childish behavior that results in more annoyance to people. Right now, she is showing a very different side of herself.
She walked down the runway, smirking in a sexy way. As soon as she arrived at the end, her eyes darted to Zoro's and smiled at him before turning.
Zoro on the other hand is forcing himself not to have his nose bleed. Alright, this is not the first time he saw Luffia wearing swimsuit. In the years they have been together, he knew for a fact that she has a killer figure. She was never shy around him, but right now, seeing her like that is different. Maybe because their relationship also turned different.
Luffia turned around and halfway through the runway, she met Sab who was already on her way to the end of runway. They smiled at each other and raised their hands for high five.
Sab is the only one who has experience when it comes to runway. She joined a beauty pageant way back their college days, and despite being encouraged to join for a bigger pageant, she did not. She is currently wearing white and red bikini, then posed at the end of the runway. Her eyes darted to her boyfriend, then she smirked mischievously at him before turning back.
She saw Ann coming out from the backstage. Ann and Luffia gave each other high five. Mid runway, Ann and Sab met and gave each other high five.
I got it from my mama
I got it from my mama
I got it from my mama
I got it, got it, g-got it
Baby, where'd you get yo body from?
Tell me where'd you get yo body from
Baby, where'd you get yo body from?
Tell me where'd you get yo body from
Ann is pretty nervous, but the upbeat music and smiles from her sister made her calm down. Oh, well. It's just a fashion show.
I got it from my mama
I got it from my mama
I got it from my mama
I got it, got it
The song continued on with other models following Ann. Nami followed, with Vivi and the rest. While the first segment of the fashion show is still on going, many comments flew from here and there, specially from men who were undoubtedly staring at the sexy women in front of them.
"Wow, that orange haired girl is really sexy. Look at those knockers." Sanji, who was busy keeping his nosebleed down heard this and immediately confronted the guy. Well, as silent as he could given that he can't cause ruckus during the show.
"Yeah, but I'd prefer the first model who walked. She got such a nice body. I'll pay millions to fuck that girl." Upon hearing this, Zoro twitched lightly, fists clenched to prevent himself from punching the guy out of his wits.
"Dude, she is a billionaire. She won't be needing your millions." Another guy said, then added: "But you are right. If we could pay millions, I'll choose the blond sister of hers. Those damn ass are just out of this world. And she got such an angelic face."
It was Kidd's turn to growl lowly at the comment. How dare they look at Sab in such dirty way?! No one is allowed to look at Sab except for Kidd.
"Got dibs on the eldest sister, then. Whew. Her breasts are nothing to scoff at."
Marco might appear calm, but his eyes are downright murderous for the person who said such thing. The men talking dirty were just behind them and they were loud as fuck. The three boys would have let it pass if it were just one sentence, but the men behind keep talking dirty without a care.
Kidd was the first one to snap. He twisted his body a little and grabbed one of the men's necks.
"Keep talking with that dirty mouth of yours and I'll make sure you won't be able to talk for the rest of your life. Who do you think you are having dirty thoughts of?! You damn fucker!" The words were not loud enough to be heard by the whole audience, but it was loud enough to be heard by the people nearby who are now looking at the scene.
"What the fuck dude?!" The man spoke trying to share Kidd off.
"Hey, You let him go now. If you are jealous about what we're talking about, how about we try to settle it? We will share them with you after we are done with them." One of them spoke smugly, suggesting something unthinkable. That is when Marco lost his patience.
"Don't. Ever. Talk. To. My. Girl. Like. That. In. My. Face!" The men must have recognized Marco and gulped. They all looked at the scowling red-haired man who was forcefully pulled away from the men in question, still growling like a beast. That is when the men realized who they were.
The third man looked carefully at the green-haired man next to Kidd and shivered a little upon seeing his green eyes sending deadly glares at him. That shut them down and after a brief apology, they all quickly escaped the hell.
Others took notice of what happened. Women were swooning at the three men and said that the sisters were so lucky to have them, while the men were being careful not to look at the sisters any wrong way because if caught by the boyfriends, they will surely face their wrath, something they can't deal with.
The fashion show continued, much to the delight of others while the three boyfriends in question cannot openly enjoy it as they are busy looking out for any men who might look at their girlfriends in a perverted way.
Kidd started to frown at the whole event itself. Why is the fashion show about swimsuits anyway? Can't they have the normal boring fashion shows? Although he enjoyed the view of Sab parading in bikini, he did not appreciate the way other men ogled at her body. He would prefer if she parades in front of him privately. Kidd mentally put a note to 'punish' her later on.
The show went on and the audience were now careful not to comment on the models, specially if the three boyfriends were in a hearing distance. When the show ended, Marco's mood is still not the best there is. Who would be?
The after party were held in front of the beach where it was surrounded with a lot of torches lit and a tent where they can get their foods and drinks. Ann took notice how Marco's mood is a little sour so she decided to ask him about it after they found a table.
"Is there something wrong? You've been grumpy. Don't tell me you don''t like the show?"
Marco's eyes answered her assumptions as she wonders why he has been grumpy.
"I like the fashion show, it was unique, and good..." There was a long pause there so Ann waited for Marco to continue. "I don't like how those perverted men keep staring at you like a piece of meat, yoi." It was quite surprising to see Marco upset and pouting like a child that Ann cannot help but chuckle a little at her boyfriend's reaction, that earned her a little glare.
"Someone is a little jealous. Aww~~." Marco glared at her even more.
"And apparently, he is not the only one." The couple looked at the approaching people. Mainly Izou and Thatch who took the two available seats. They were followed by Kidd and Sab. Ann briefly noticed Kidd's grumpy mode which suffice to say, might be due to jealousy.
Kidd took the last available seat and pulled Sab to sit on his lap - she blushed which made Ann smile.
"You are not allowed to do fashion shows again, specially these kinds of fashion shows!" Kidd firmly said while wrapping his arms around Sab's waist.
"Stop being a baby and deal with it.' Her answer did not satisfy Kidd at all.
After calming the jealous boyfriends, they went on with some interesting topics like next movies that they can attend together, or some places they have never been. Kidd is quite surprised to know Sab can pilot a helicopter, but then again, he knew that Luffia can also pilot, albeit recklessly.
"Speaking of Luffia, where is she? Did not see her after the show." Sab asked. When she looked at the food counter, she saw Luffia, carrying large plates while at the alcohol counter, they all saw Zoro carrying two bottles at each hand before meeting Luffia midway in finding a place to sit.
"Those two really are too alike for their own good. One has a black hole for eating a enormous amounts of food while the other is an alcohol addict." Ann said.
Luffia saw her sisters and told Zoro that she wants to sit with them. Izou and Thatch left because they promised to find Pappagg for a little chat. The sisters engaged in another eating contest. Luffia won while the twins lost.
After losing , Sab dragged Kidd to have a night swimming at the beach, which he agreed to.
"And why are you still sulking like a baby?" Sab faced the sulking red-haired man, arms crossed in front of her chest.
"Che! I would have smashed those men's faces if not for the ongoing fashion show."
"Let them be. You should really watch your temper."
"And you should what you flaunt in front of them!" he shot back.
"I don;t exactly get jealous or get mad when you flaunt yourself in front of women." Sab retorted.
"Whatever." Kidd sat on the ground, glaring at the beach in front of him.
"Come on. Let;s go for a swim to cool that hot head of yours." Kidd made no sound of answering. Sab just sighed and took off her summer dress, revealing a green and white two piece bikini. Instead of saying anything, she walked towards the beach, clearly flaunting her figure in front of her boyfriend to get his attention. She was successful in grabbing his attention because before she reached the shore, she felt his hand around her waist. "I thought you don't want to swim?" She asked in a teasing tone.
"I think you deserve punishment." After saying that, he lifted Sab - bridal style as he ran to the water, dumping her.
"You're an ass!" Sab shouted, splashing water at her boyfriend.
Kidd just laughed loudly, wrapping his arms around her and leaned in for a hungry kiss.
"You know, I really like your butt." Kidd muttered as he started to lavish her neck, his hands are busy squeezing that ass.
"I bet those men made a comment about my ass." Her statement earned a growl and another firm squeeze, making her gasp in surprise. "At least they do not have the privilege to feel my ass like you do." Kidd just hummed in agreement. They once again kissed and when they pulled apart, Sab smirked mischievously. "I think I had enough of your hands feeling my ass up. Time to go back." Sab pulled away from him and she did not even gave him a chance to protest as she started to walk away while shouting that it is also his punishment for throwing her into the water.
The fashion show garnered a lot of attention from the media. A lot of gossips are everywhere. Some people informed the media about Kidd's outburst. When Kidd went to meet with Rayleigh for the next action plans of their project, he is giving him stern looks.
"Look, is there something you want to say about me? You have been glaring at me the whole time."
"I'd like you to be careful and you better treat Sab right. Otherwise, you will suffer the consequences." Rayleigh looked so damn serious and Kidd understood well.
"I know. Knock some sense to me if I did anything not right, if and only if Sab hasn't beaten me to death.' Rayleigh laughed at that before dismissing him.
Now that Kidd thinks about it, he has been receiving a lot o warnings to be careful and watch out. What to watch out, he does not even know, but it seems people have been warning him about something... Oh well...
===XXX===XXX===XXX===
Nami stared at her two friends, frowning at their interaction. She is not alone. Even Ussopp is frowning and more so, Sanji is irritated at the display in front of them. Too sweet for their liking.
They are back to their regular work schedule and the executives of SHI are used to have lunch together. They are used how Luffia steals food from everyone else, but they are not used to see her spoon feeding Zoro in front of them. Yep, too sweet for their liking.
"Zoro, try this. It is good!" Luffia took a meat and fed it to Zoro who was, mind you, blushing at Luffia's sweet gestures. Not that she is not sweet before, but this time that their relationship changed a little, the actions they display are more likely labeled as lovey-dovey than being just labeled as besffriends. Nevertheless, he accepted the food she is feeding him.
"I'd like to do boxing later on! Let's go to your gym afterwards!" Luffia suggested to Zoro.
"Sure, but I have a meeting at 4 PM with some of our clients." Zoro said. Even though they are happy go lucky people, mostly onto relaxation and just chill, they are still dealing with businesses. Their company won't last long if all they do is just dilly-dally around, doing nothing.
"Ok. I also have a meeting at 4 PM with Nami and some of our partners. Meetings sucks!"
"Make sure you take a bath before going to the meeting. I don't want you smelling like sweat when we go to this dealing!" Nami told Luffia.
"Aye, aye sir!" She saluted to her before continuing to eat her fill.
"Now that the Annual race is over, I heard Ann is going to work for Whitebeard." Robin opened the topic. They are used to have Ann around when they need help in some of their mechanical businesses. She usually hangs around when she have no clients to work with.
"Uh-huh. She will. I think she fits in there."
"Is your dad aware of their relationship? The twins' relationship is publicly all over the news." Nami can't help but comment.
"I think mom is preventing dad from knowing about it. Shishishi. He might go berserk once he knows."
"So, wait, Ann and Sab did not tell Kidd and Marco about your identities?" Usopp asked.
"I don't think so." No one said anything after that. They are all deep in thought about what is going to happen once Roger finds out.
Meanwhile... Roger sneezed several times.
"Hmm, I wonder if someone is talking about me behind my back again..."

Whitebeard looked at the loud man in front of him, contemplating how to answer his, uh, statements.
"Bwahaha! Wouldn't it be wonderful if your son and my granddaughter will get married and have kids? I suggest we start planning the date of their wedding so I can take a few days off of my work. I am sure, Sengoku will also be attending."
"Garp, as far as I know, they just started their relationship not too long ago. Don't you think you are rushing things? Not that I'd mind having Ann as a daughter-in-law, but why don't we wait for them to decide on their own?"
"Decide on their own? Bah! They might take years before they even think about getting married! They should have kids as soon as possible!"
"That is not something for us to decide. Though, I admit having grandchildren sounds great. Gurara."
"I know right?! You should encourage your son to propose as soon as possible! I am not getting any younger and you too are getting older every second. It won't be long before we kick the bucket. I don't want to die without training my great-grandchildren."
Edward Newgate shook his head in amusement of Garp as he keeps reading the tabloids about his grandchildren.
"Good! Good! My grandchildren have good eyes when it comes to men! Bwahahah! I trained them right!" They continued their conversation when Izou came right on time. She knew Garp as Pops' drinking buddy. It is just rare to see him at this hour. "Ah! You are just someone I needed. I want you to plan my grandchildren's wedding!"
Izou raised an eyebrow, amused and wondering about Garp's statement.
"Plan their weddings? Not that I'd mind that, but why so sudden?"
"This is an urgent matter. I want you to plan Ann and Marco's wedding as soon as possible." His tone is demanding as if it involves life and death. His eyes have the sense of urgency and seriousness, but that is not the only one Izou wonders about.
"Did you just say Ann and Marco?"
"Yes. Ann is my eldest grandchild, she should walk down the isle first before Sab and Luffia. Luffia is still young, she can postpone the wedding for a year or two, but the twins are already in their right age to get married."
Izou's mouth opened wide, gaping at Garp's statement.
"You're their grandfather?"
"What? Is that hard to believe?"
Izou wanted to answer yes, but she does not want to offend Garp.
"Hmm, well, I can start planning their wedding. Don't worry, leave it to me!"
"Bwahahah. Good. Good. Now, the next task is in your hands Whitebeard. Make sure your son will man up and propose. Since my business is done here, I should go back and do some boring stuff Sengokuu sent to me."
After saying those, Garp left the building in a very good mood. He will call Rouge later today to let her know the progress of their plans.
As he was leaving the office, he chanced upon Ann talking to her boyfriend. He did the only natural thing and called out to her.
"Ann!"
She looked at the person calling her name, her eyes went wide as saucers when she saw who the person was. She shivered while looking at her grandfather.. What the hell is he even doing here?
"Gramps?!"
"Bwahaha. Come give grandpa a hug!" Garp did not even give Ann a chance. He crushed her with a full bear hug, making her wince in pain. Then she noticed Garp's eyes landed on Marco. Ann immediately readied himself in case Garp decided to do a bloody murder. No one is going to die today, and definitely not her boyfriend.
She was ready to give full explanation, readying her muscles in case Garo decided to be a gorilla soldier, and she was even thinking of throwing herself in between the two men. A lot of things are going on her mind right now at the worst cases but she is hella surprised at Garp's next action.
"My future grandson-in-law! Bwahaha! You better treat my precious granddaughter! But I am sure you will!" Garp laughed in a very heavenly mood, slapping Marco's back. "Alright. I have to go now. Sengoku will definitely be mad at me and start nagging like crazy. I will see you two around!"
Garp left them after that. Marco just can't believe that his Pops drinking buddy just stopped by and called him Future Grandson-in-law. Meanwhile, Ann felt like the world is coming to an end. Her grandfather, Garp, the crazy idiotic and monstrous Monkey D. Garp just accepted her relationship like that and even called Marco Future grandson-in-law!
"What the hell..." She muttered to herself, looking at her grandfather's figure as he walks away.
"Your grandfather..."
"I don't know why he acted that way. Normally, he would try to kill any man who tries to get close to us and gives us a never ending speech about how we are not allowed to date until we are 40." A shiver went down her spine just the mere thought of Garp trying to murder Marco. She is aware of Marco's background in martial arts, but no one can underestimate how strong Garp is, after all, he is a legendary military figure feared by almost all of the criminals out there. Add to that is his crazy tendencies. Ann and her sisters lost count of how many times Garp lost control of his strength.
"What made him think otherwise, yoi?"
Some thoughts and suspicions came to her mind, but none of them are qualified to be accepted - not in her standards, and those were hell crazy ideas involving why Garp acted as such. She shivered once again considering those ideas because if she is right, God help them all - their grandfather is the least of their worries, but their father.
"Come to think of it, you said your parents live in the outskirts of town, right?" Ann tensed a little. She almost forgot that Marco is not aware of her parents.
"Y-Yeah... What of it?"
"Well, I was thinking that Pops would like to invite you to our family dinner, yoi. Maybe after that, we can arrange a family dinner with your parents. I would love to meet them."
Ann almost choked on her own saliva, not trusting herself to say anything right now. Marco is asking to meet her parents and meet them like a proper boyfriend should. She should be happy, her boyfriend is taking initiative to get to know her family, but no. His suggestion made her nervous and worried. Marco meeting Roger will be a disaster, that is for sure.
"Uh, I will ask them first. They are not welcoming with boyfriends after all."
Marco frowned a little but nodded, kept his silence as a form of respect to what Ann wants.
===XXX===XXX===XXX===
When the three sisters got back in their house, they received a call from their parents asking them how they were. It was very usual for their father to ask what happened in their daily lives specially since they are gone for 2 weeks. Luffia's mouth continued to dabble about how the fashion show was, that it was awesome. Her words are more of rants - something Roger does not mind. He loves hearing anything about his precious daughters.
The twins made sure that Luffia will not slip, and give information to Roger about their supposed boyfriends. Once the call ended, Ann decided to tell her sisters about her encounter with their grandfather, a very strange encounter.
"It's gramps! He is bound to be weird!" Luffia argued when Sab and Ann tried to think of the reason why Garp suddenly became pro-dating.
"I think Luffia is right. Most of the time, he utters nonsense so let's just forget about it for now." Sab shrugged off. They all decided to go to bed early for they still have a lot of things to do tomorrow.
In her room, Ann is still lingering on the thoughts of how she should break the news to Marco. Of course, she needs to prepare him, mentally, emotionally and physically if he is going to meet his dad. Well, that goes the same for Sab who needs to prepare Kidd. Then, again, those two just got together not too long ago, so Sab can't be bothered with it like Ann does.
Just thinking of how her father will react is giving Ann serious headache. So much thoughts running in her mind that so she decided to just worry about it tomorrow.
Morning came, like usual, Sab wakes up the earliest, making breakfast for the three of them. She was making pancakes when her phone started to ring, signaling a call from someone. Who would be so awake at this early and call her? Her frown disappeared when she saw who the caller was. It is her boyfriend.
Boyfriend, such a foreign word to her, but she cannot help but smile.
"You are calling such an early hour." Sab never bothered to say hello and went straight to the point. She put the phone in speaker mode while she continues to cook.
"And you are answering my call early, which means you woke up early too."
"Fair enough. So, what's up?" She asked while flipping the pancake.
"Are you cooking?" His question was quite far off her expected answer, but oh well.
"Yes. My sisters are still sleeping. They are not early birds, and the task of making breakfast for three black holes is assigned to me."
"Speaking of breakfast, I haven't prepared one." Kidd's tone is implying something in there. Sab will be foolish not to take that tone into consideration.
"What, you want to join us? Is the great Eustass being clingy boyfriend wanting to taste his girlfriend's home-cooked breakfast?" The teasing voice became evident, causing Kidd to clicked his tongue in annoyance to the woman who was laughing in delight. "Aww, does my red-haired baby miss me?"
"Can you stop that?!"
"Stop what? You are such a sucker when being teased. What were you doing right now?"
"Just finished some weight exercises." Ugh, that made Sab think or more like dream of a sweaty Kidd in a gym room, lifting weights, muscles flexing and sweat running down his exposed body. "You became awfully quiet. Don't tell me you are dreaming about my sexy body?" It was Kidd's turn to tease her. Good thing he is not around, or else he will definitely see Sab's blushing cheeks, affirming his theory.
"I am not! I am busy flipping pancakes."
"Let's just say I believe that. Speaking of cooking, you never cooked for me." It came out as a whine from Kidd. He would love to see Sab cooking in his kitchen, with nothing but an apron on. For sure, no dish will be finished because it will soon be forgotten, what with other things they can do. More like make out and possibly a love-making session.
"You are such a big baby. Why don't you wash up and come over for breakfast. You are not that far from our house anyways."
"Wash up? You sure you don't want to smell me right after I came out of the gym?" It was another teasing tone of his. Sab fell silent for a second there, contemplating if she should ask him to shower or not. It was tempting.
"No, go shower. As tempting as it sounds, I don't want my house smelling like your sweat."
"Fine. I'll be there then."
The call ended so Sab resumed her cooking, adding eggs, muffins and some fruits in their menu, with a little note that Kidd will be joining them. It is already 8 AM when she finished and that is when the door bell rang. Without taking off her apron, she looked at their gate monitor, confirming her theory that the person ringing the doorbell is Kidd. She pressed their intercom and told Kidd to come inside. She then unlocked the gate through their system.
Sab went back to the kitchen, trusting Kidd to just waltz inside the house. She heard the door open.
"I'm in the kitchen!" She shouted, loud enough for him to hear.
"What a terrible host and girlfriend, not even welcoming a guest such as myself. And to think I am your boyfriend." There was no snark in his remarks, more like teasing. His eyes never stopped roaming around her clothes. Sleeping shorts paired with tank top. The view is very much appreciated.
"Yes, yes. And I am busy with preparing these." She left the coffee maker to do its job in favor of greeting Kidd with a kiss.
"You know, now that I saw you wearing apron, I kind of like it. Maybe you can cook for me in my house, just the two of us."
"And of course, you would want me to be cooking naked with nothing but apron on." Kidd's smile widen at her answer.
"You know me so well." He leaned for another quick kiss, as much as he wanted to deepen it, they are not alone in this house and any other activities is not a good idea.
"That can be arranged. I'll wake up my sisters so we can start breakfast."
Breakfast with the three sisters is suffice to say, chaotic. There were a LOT of cursing mostly directed to Luffia because she decided to jump on Ann's bed, like usual, as per Sab. When Ann did not wake up like she used to, Luffia decided to go downstairs, greeting Kidd along the way before she decided to get two saucer pans. Kidd internally winced because he is damn sure Luffia will be making a terrible noise out of the two saucers.
"You look like shit." Kidd commented to Ann. She looked like she did not get some sleep, and still sleepy as hell.
"Wow, thanks! i wouldn't known something so obvious without you telling me." She was so sarcastic but Kidd shrugged it off.
"Ann, you better hurry and get dressed. You are going to start in Whitebeard's company. Even though your boyfriend is the heir to that company, it does not mean you have to be late in your first day." Sab scolded.
"I know that! And I am not going to use my girlfriend privileges for a special treatment."
"Shishishi. I'll have to get dressed as well. Nami is going to bite my ass for being late again to our meetings."
"You are always late, you little shit! And Zoro too if i might add! Honestly, I pity Nami for nagging the two of you because one is so damn easy going while the other does not even give a shit." Ann scowled.
"But we get business done one way or the other. Does it even matter if we are always late?" True, they always get business down, but it does not mean that Nami is happy for the top two bosses of the company being lazy as fuck.
"Yeah, whatever. I'll get going. What about you two?" Ann directed her question to the two lovers.
"I'll drop by the hospital today for a board meeting. Then some meetings this afternoon."
"I have nothing to do, so I might as well tag along with Sab."
"You mean be her bodyguard for a day? You are a clingy boyfriend." Luffia was so blunt in saying it to Kidd. Needless to say, he does not appreciate the words, and there was a hint of embarrassment visible in the form of blushing cheeks. Yeah, totally clingy and sap boyfriend.
After the eventful breakfast, all of them left the house. Kidd drove Sab's car as he is going to be tagging along. Luffia went ahead. Ann was left to lock the house. She is inside her car, still not feeling well. Was it because Luffia's ways of waking her up? No, she does not think so. She has been waking up to that noise for years without feeling sick. So why now? Ah, must be some sort of exhaustion. She shrugged. She is hoping that the feeling will get out of her system.
Ann made sure the house is properly locked before speeding to where Moby Dick building is located. Little did she know that not too far away from their house, two figures inside a car are creepily observing them, maniac grins on their faces.
"Roger's daughters, huh?"
