Hello everyone! I hope you all are having a lovely day. So, um I don't think I can do it every Wednesday. I'm sorry. I am going to try and get them in as soon as I can. I also wanna try writing in the third person. Now on with the story.

Disclaimer: I do not own One Piece or any of the characters. Or any of the songs. :)

Chapter Seven

(3rd person POV)

Luffy watched Ace leave through the bushes like he always does. She got back to practicing. After about 30 minutes Derek came with something in his hand, an outfit. "Okay are you ready, did you practice the songs?" Luffy nodded her head. He opened the cage and handed her the clothes. "Don't get anything on these. Not a stain, don't rip it or do anything to damage it. Or you'll pay." He said menacingly and walked away giving her some privacy.

On the other hand, Ace is still in the bushes hiding. When he heard the 'or you'll pay' he silently growled. He did not like hearing anything related to harming Luffy. He looked back up to see Luffy on the verge of changing. He blushed very deeply and turned around. He crouched down and covered his face in his hands trying to cool his face down. After he was 100% sure she was done he turned back around, just to make sure.

She was dressed in a red one-piece bunny outfit. She had black tights and white bunny ears. She looked down and made a face. It looked pretty tight and she felt a little exposed. She grabbed her papers and waited for Derek to come back. In Ace's eyes, she looked stunning.

Derek came back and unlocked the cage and led her back inside. Ace followed from the outside. "The master's friends should be here in the room already." they walked around the mansion to a room that seemed to have a lively bunch behind it. Ace found a window where he could see inside and he walked there. Derek knocked and then mumbled speaking could be heard. "Oh that must be the entertainment." and Hansuke opened the door.

"Of course she is here. Hey, who's going first cause I will gladly go." one of Hansuke's friends jokes. There were 3 other people in the room, 4 including Hansuke. Ace kept himself hidden but he was still able to see. I'm just here to make sure she is safe, there is no other reason but to keep a friend safe. He thought. "No she is not here for that, I wanted to give you guys a private concert. She will be here singing songs while we talk about … stuff."

"Cool, but the other stuff isn't completely off the table, right?" the same person said again. "Yes, it is." Hansuke said with a glare. And Derek pushed her towards where the mic was at. The others walked towards the table to play some cards. They all meet to make bets, play poker, brag about their wealth or how many slaves they have. All that typical noble boys do.

Luffy got to the mic and took a deep breath. She is going to start on the first song that was on the list. It was called Mad Hatter.

My friends don't walk, they run

Skinny dip in rabbit holes for fun

Popping, popping balloons with guns, getting high off helium

We paint white roses red

Each shade from a different person's head

This dream, dream is a killer

Getting drunk with the blue caterpillar

I'm peeling the skin off my face

'Cause I really hate being safe

The normals, they make me afraid

The crazies, they make me feel sane

I'm nuts, baby, I'm mad

The craziest friend that you've ever had

You think I'm psycho, you think I'm gone

Tell the psychiatrist something is wrong

Over the bend, entirely bonkers

You like me best when I'm off my rocker

Tell you a secret, I'm not alarmed

So what if I'm crazy? The best people are

All the best people are crazy, all the best people are

Where is my prescription?

Doctor, doctor please listen

My brain is scattered

You can be Alice, I'll be the mad hatter

She continued singing the other songs on the list and the others started talking about important matters while playing poker.

"So everyone, and I mean everyone, got suspiciously drunk at the party care to explain what happened, Hansuke." one of the men asked. Ace snapped out of paying attention to Luffy when he heard drunk and party together in the same sentence. He listened closely to what they might have to say about this. "I'm sure you're all aware that 3 commoners snuck onto the property." Hansuke said putting venom behind the word commoners. Like it was a crime for them to even be near the mansion.

"So what are you going to do about it? You're not going to leave this alone, are you?" a different man asked. "Do you know what people might think if they heard about this?" someone chimed in. "Of course, we will find them and make them pay for coming and trying to destroy my party." Hansuke said darkly. Ace made a mental note to warn Marco and Thatch. Though they are more than capable of handling these people, it is better to know it might happen than be surprised.

"Did your men get a good look at them?" a man said as he added more money chips to the pile. Ace glared towards them, worried it might cause the crew some trouble. "Sadly no, all we know is that they all wore the same outfit. They did not even get any physical features, they were all useless." Hansuke sighed and added more as well. "But I promise you, I will find them. You know with the right strategy and enough money you can get anything to go your way. Read them and weep." and Hansuke put down a royal flush. Winning the game.

-ace x Luffy-

Ace left after making sure Luffy got back to her cage safely and headed back to the moby dick. He knew they would be fine but he did not want to have their little prank make them leave. It seemed like he was enjoying his time at this island, thanks to a certain raven-haired beauty. So he had to warn Marco and Thatch that people might come for them.

He saw the moby dick insight and jumped aboard, walking around looking for either of them and bumped into Namur. "Hey Ace watcha looking for?" he asked with a friendly smile. "Sorry I was looking for Thatch or Marco. Have you seen either of them?"

"I think Marco was working on some paperwork, and Thatch was helping in the kitchen."

"Okay, Thanks!" Ace said as he ran to the commanders sleeping quarters before Namur could say anything else. He knocked on Marco's door. He heard some grumbles and the door flew open with a mildly angered Marco. "Ace-yoi, what are you doing here? Where have you been all day, have you been hanging out with Luffy?" he asked teasingly. Ace blushed but pushed it down. Not the time. He thought to himself. "I have something to tell you and Thatch, can you come with me to get him so I can tell you both together?"

"Suuure-yoi?" Marco said skeptically as he followed Ace to the kitchen. He looked around and saw some people walking around carrying food for breakfast tomorrow. He spotted Thatch cleaning dishes by himself. Perfect. They headed towards him and Thatched looked up, a bit surprised to see them both there. "Marco? Ace? Ace where have you been, have you been-"

"Not the time. Okay so remember that party we went to a few days ago." they both nodded. "Well, I was …, um, walking around when I heard the man who hosted the party says that he was looking for us. I just wanted to warn you but it does not seem like he knows what we look like. But I don't feel like having to leave early because of some trouble so I just wanted to let you know." Ace was about to walk away when thatch grabbed his arm. "Okay, we understand. But I have something else to ask you." Thatch said with serious eyes. Ace gave him a raised eyebrow, confused about what he might ask. "Have you eaten anything today?"

What?

"I was just wondering because you have been gone all day and did not take anything to eat." Thatch said worriedly. "No, I don't think I had anything since breakfast." and Thatch went in back and brought out a cart of food. "I thought so, here your portion of dinner." Ace gave him a cheerful grin and walked to the table, with Marco and Thatch following behind. "Just know you're washing your dishes."

"Of course." Ace started eating when he noticed Marco and Thatch sitting in front of him. "So, while you're here. We were wondering, what did you do today?" Thatch asked first with a devilish smirk. "Yeah, you did not answer me when I asked if you have hung out with Luffy today-yoi," Marco added.

Uh oh

And so, the teasing began.

-Ace x Luffy-

Today was a lovely day. Ace was on his way to hang out with Luffy and today he remembered to bring some of Thatch's food for her to try out. Thatch also gave him an extra one for himself saying to give the first one to Luffy at their next meeting. He blushed still remembering the embarrassing teasing he got when Thatch gave him the food. But it will be worth it when he sees Luffy try it.

And he had another song. He was pretty excited to sing to her now that he knows she enjoys it. He made it to the garden and looked to make sure no one came. He saw no one and walked up towards Luffy. She was in her normal outfit again. Though she looks good in anything Ace thought.

Wait why would I think that. Ace blushed. Luffy turned to him and gave him a bigger smile than what she usually gives and Ace blushed even more. He sat down in front of her and they both said good morning to each other. "I actually got you some of Thatch's food. He made some breakfast and lunch, but lunch is for later." Ace said as he pushed a small container of food towards her.

She opened it and the amazing smell of Tamagoyaki came wafting out. She drooled a bit as she stared at it. She was super excited to try it, especially since Ace's friend made it. Ace watched as she took a piece and put it in her mouth, waiting to see her reaction. Her eyes turned to sparkles and she felt like she died and went to heaven.

Ace watched as her face turned blissful, and he chucked. "I take it you like it." he said and she nodded her head furiously. "It'z zo YUMMY!" she said excitedly. "Well I'm glad you enjoy his cooking, I sure do." They ate a couple of minutes in comfortable silence.

"I don't really have any siblings." Luffy added out of nowhere. Ace looked up at her with confused eyes. "Well you told me a bit about your family so I wanted to do the same." she said with a small shy smile. He nodded his head in understanding and a small smile made it to his face. He gave her a look that said 'you can continue'. "But I had a caretaker, her name was Makino. She was like a big sister to me. She would read me bedtime stories, and make my food even when she was working. She owned a small bar and I got to hang out there every day."

"She sounds like a lovely person." Ace said. After they finished eating Ace took the containers and put them in his watermelon backpack.

"So the noble of this house's name is Hansuke right?" Ace asked. "Yes." Ace laughed out loud. Luffy tilted her head to the side, not understanding what made Ace laugh. "I'm sorry but you know what Hansuke means right?" Luffy shook her head. "It means a 'very helpful friend'." Luffy looked at him with wide eyes till she started giggling. "Shishishi" Ace blushed at her giggle.

"Hansuke, a 'very helpful friend', yeah I don't think so." she said. "Anyway, what happened yesterday? What did you end up doing?" Ace asked like he was not there and did not know anything. "Nothing, I just had to sing some songs and he gave me this weird bunny outfit, I didn't really like it. But I think they were talking about you. I think Hansuke might send people to get you so you need to be careful." She said with a serious expression. "What you think I can't handle some goons. I'm a little offended." Ace said jokingly.

"I'm sorry, I'm just worried something might happen. But are you sure you can handle them?" Ace gave her a look. "Okay okay, I trust you." She said and she was smiling again.

"Do you have another song for me?" Luffy asked expectantly. "Yes have you heard of a song called Dynamite?" She shook her head. "Great! Okay, here I go."

"I throw my hands up in the air sometimes

Saying ayo, gotta let go

I wanna celebrate and live my life

Saying ayo, baby, let's go

'Cause we gon' rock this club, we gon' go all night

We gon' light it up like it's dynamite

'Cause I told you once, now I told you twice

We gon' light it up like it's dynamite

I came to move, move, move, move

Get out the way of me and my crew, crew, crew, crew

I'm in the club so I'm gonna do, do, do, do

Just what the f-, I came here to do, do, do, do

Yeah, yeah 'cause it goes on and on and on

And it goes on and on and on, yeah

Luffy was jumping and dancing a little to the music. When Ace finished they both sat in a comfortable silence calming down. They talked for a while, while Luffy looked over her new song list. Ace told her stories about his travels. And they were just having a good time.

Now that's the Chapter. I am sorry if it felt a bit rushed. I was not really sure what I should put for that ending. It's like I had an idea then *poof* it was gone and I did not know what to put. Well, what can you do? Plus some stuff I had in mind I wanted to put in the next chapter. Well, I hope you enjoyed thank you for reading.

Well, I will see you guys next time. BYE :)
