Slight warning for Mature theme at the start!

"Ah ah ha ah" Breathless panting echoed throughout the two-story home in the busy city.

"Hmm, you look so worn-out, Marco, what's wrong? Are we already reaching your limit?", a raven haired man smirked while pounding into his blond husband at a steady pace.

"N-Never-yoi!"

"Oh realllyyyy~?" The smirk grew as he took a moment to reposition himself, grabbing onto the other's hips and hoisting them up to get a better leverage. "We'll see about that", he whispered in a red ear before slamming into the blond's tight hole, hitting his prostate head on.

Marco screamed under him, scratching a freckled back in the process. The man laughed at the sting and was on his way to make another cocky remark when their bedroom door suddenly burst open.

"No hurt papa!" their daughter, Marcy, came rushing inside and flew up the little step stool that they kept on Ace's the side of the bed, especially there so she could crawl into their bed on her own.

Ace cursed silently as Marcy was next to him within seconds, he carefully pulled out of his husband, not knowing what else to do with their daughter right here. "Marcy, what's wr-"

"Bad!" the girl yelled, pointing at something before hitting her tiny hand down with all her might.

SMACK

Suddenly feeling empty and no longer feeling his husband's hands raising his hips, Marco blearily opened his eyes to look around. His vision was instantly filled with his daughter's worried face. He was very confused and tried calling out her name, "Mar-"

"Papa! Papa okay? papa hurt!? Marcy protect papa!"

"Marcy-yoi? What? I'm am not hurt?" He had no idea what was going on, why was his daughter here? He was just getting pounded by his husband, who had been doing an amazing job at it, when he suddenly stopped and now his daughter was here? Why was she here, when did she get he-

A muffled, choked off sob, towards his side grabbed his attention, looking towards it, he could see his husband's huddled up form. He heard that he was crying and seemed to be clutching at his... dick?

"Papa?" He glanced between the two people he loved the most before realisation set in. Oh my... please don't tell me Marcy did what he think she did.

"Papa's okay." He said absentmindedly and looked to Ace in worry. Shit.

Not even taking the time to put his pants on, he scooped up his daughter and brought her to the washroom, quickly washing her hands and bringing her to bed.

"Papa's okay, I promise. Time to sleep now-yoi." He kissed her head after he tucked her in and gave her her teddy bear. "Papa needs to check on daddy."

"Papa mad?"

Oh, he was mad alright. But not at his daughter, no. He was mad that his husband had been pounding his brains out and was doing a far too amazing job at it. But right now, worry was taking over since he didn't know the state of his husband.

"No, Papa's not mad." he kissed her head again and gently closed the door on his way out and rushed back to his room to comfort his husband the moment it closed. He picked up his phone from the nightstand and called Izou while simultaneously holding his husband in his arms, waiting for his brother to pick up.

He had an arm over Ace's back, rubbing circles over it when the person finally picked up.

"Hello, Izou speaking."

"Izou! It's Marco-yoi. Please, do you have time right now to come over? I need to take Ace to the hospital but I can't leave Marcy on her own."

"Huh, hospital? What happened, is Ace okay?"

"He will be fine, I'll explain later, the sooner I can get him to the hospital the better. -ryting's okay Ace, I got you."

Izou heard the muffled comforting words to Ace and decided that now indeed was not the time to question things if they really needed to go to the hospital, "I'll be there in 10 min max."

"Thank you Izou!" Marco hung up, not waiting for Izou to say goodbye. Now, he instantly tried to sooth his husband who was still sobbing and maybe get him to show him what hurt. Until now, Ace has just been shaking his head every time he asked.

"Dick!" he finally cried out as he held his own, now softened, member in his hands. Marco swallowed hard, he could see some discolouration forming already. Not good. Not good at all. He may need surgery. "Love, can I see it-yoi, please?"

The other hiccupped but did slowly move his hands so the blond could see it.

"I'm going to touch it, okay?" Even if Ace was his husband, he still needed to tell him. Getting a slow not in return, the blond touched it gently and examined it. "a-ah" he was too stunned to speak for a moment before words finally came out in disbelieve, "She broke it… our daughter broke your dick. We need to get you to the hospital."

He quickly pulled on his own sweat-pants and a t-shirt before helping Ace put on some clothes himself. Getting him in a T-shirt and some boxers, not bothering with pants, they would take it off at the hospital anyways.

"It's going to be okay. We'll get you to the hospital." He said reassuringly as he slowly helped Ace up. He had to get him to the car as soon as possible.

Deciding best that Ace shouldn't walk on his own, he carefully picked him up an carried him to the car. Ace was trembling in his grasp, tears making its way down his cheeks, he really hopes the break isn't too bad.

"Ace-yoi, babe, I am going back inside for a moment, okay? To check on Marcy and put some stuff ready for Izou. Will you be fine here for a minute?"

After a small tearful nod, Marco kissed Ace's cheek and went inside the house, not closing the door fully in case Ace called out for him.

Once Izou arrived and he had explained that he had put Marcy to bed for now, he was out of the house and back in the car within seconds. He drove to the hospital, making sure to drive extra slow over speed bumps, only now really noticing how many there were. Pulling up to the hospital he once again picked Ace up and carried him into the ER.

The nurse working looked surprised at seeing Marco enter on his day off, "Doctor Newg-"

"My husband needs emergency surgery. Penile fracture. I'll take care of all the paper work, just get the surgeon on shift please."

The nurse blinked but picked up the phone and paged the surgeon on shift. He called her not long later wanting to know more about the issue, she explained before hanging up. "Go to operating room 3. He will be there with his team."

She pressed a button behind the counter to let him to enter the rest of the hospital. Quickly thanking the nurse, he turned and carried Ace for what seemed like forever to the operating room. At the door he was stopped by some staff who had a stretcher ready.

"I'll-"

"Marco, you know the policy."

Marco glanced between his husband and the stretcher, but reluctantly laid Ace down on it before putting a hand on his shoulder, "Everything is going to be fine."

"Marco?" Ace was terrified, everything had gone so quickly, did he really need surgery? Wasn't Marco going to come in with him, he wasn't going to be his doctor?

"Don't worry, Ace-yoi, you are in good hands, Doctor Tony and his team are very good and precise, they'll have you fixed in no time." he hadn't seen the doctor himself yet, expecting him to be inside and setting up his workspace, but he had recognised the team.

Leaning down he gave a small kiss on Ace's forehead before moving away, giving a smile, "I'll come to you the moment I'm allowed to."

Moments later Ace was wheeled away. Marco walked towards the ward that he knew Ace would be put in and asked the staff if they could let him know when he was brought in. Moving to a nearby waiting room he sat down and sent a quick text to Izou that Ace had gone into surgery. Afterwards he started to fill out some paperwork the nurses of the ward had given him.

Izou texted back not long later. 'Your daughter just told me everything after she came down crying. She's sleeping again now.' Marco felt bad. He should have been home comforting his daughter, but he also had a duty to take care of his husband too, he didn't want to have to leave either alone.

'Take care of her. Thank you for coming so quickly. Please feel free to take whatever you want out of the fridge and cabinets to eat and drink.' Hitting send on his own text, he went back to the paperwork, finishing it up not much later and bringing it to the staff before sitting down to wait for the operation to be over.

He received a picture of Marcy sleeping in her bed with her giant bear, making him smile a bit. Ace loved to snuggle up to it too. He chuckled since this meant that Izou had put the bear there for her, it was far too heavy for the little girl to carry it to bed herself.

He checked the time, it felt like it has been forever since his wait started, but it had only been 10 minutes. They would have put him under anaesthesia several minutes ago and would have just started the procedure. He had done several in his years of working, it wasn't a routine procedure, but it also wasn't one of the more difficult ones, but having his own husband needing it scared him.

About a hour later, one of the staff came up to him, saying that they had gotten word to prepare a room and that Ace could be brought in any minute now. Since he was a doctor and knew what to do and what not to do, they let him know that it was fine by them if he entered the room as soon as his husband was settled, even if these weren't visiting hours.

He was immensely grateful for this and thanked the nurse wholeheartedly, he knew they could have easily denied him access even if he worked at the hospital. Putting his phone away, having made a small list of things he should get to make Ace comfortable at home, he focused on the hallway where he knew Dr. Tony would walk through to wheel Ace in.

Several minutes passed by when Dr. Tony came out, while his team wheeled Ace to the recovery room behind him. "Marco?" He asked walking over to the blond man.

Marco stood up to face the other. "Chopper, how is he? Did everything go fine?"

"Yes, don't worry, the surgery went well and there shouldn't be any lasting damages. But, as you know yourself, the recovery will take a while and he will be uncomfortable and in pain for a big part of the healing process."

Marco nodded along to the doctor's explanation, having heard the stories from his own patients. "Also, the break was bad enough for him to need a catheter too, while the patients can put it in themselves, you know it's always easier if someone else helps. Plus, he will have trouble standing and walking for a while. Is there anyone that can stay with him at home for a while? I also know that you two have a small daughter that Ace takes care of through the day, right? Under no circumstances is he allowed to lift her okay, not even for a moment, it will put too much strain on him."

The blond nodded along. "I'll make some calls to see if I can get some time off myself. If I can't be home, I'm sure one of my brothers, or my sister, can help and look after him and Marcy-yoi." He was very relieved that his husband was going to be okay, "and I mean, Luffy and Law can also look after Marcy for a day. Even if Luffy would be too much for Ace to handle right now." He chuckled some despite what had happened, imagining how worried Luffy would be, only to practically jump Ace, which would be bad in his condition, "Thank you very much for taking care of him." He could even see Chopper smiling too at the mention of Luffy.

"Yea… Maybe leave Luffy for a last resort… even if he means well… but well either way, No problem, it's our job. I'll send you a copy of the report later too, I know you will want to read it. For now, you can go to him, he's still asleep but the anaesthesia should stop working within the next 30 minutes. He's been set up in room 201. Since you know how this all works, you can already explain the basics to him of his recovery when he wakes up, I will however still be sure to come over later and talk to him about the details and the surgery itself."

After thanking the doctor they both parted ways and Marco made his way to where his husband was. Seeing that he was still sleeping, he took a seat next to him. Pulling out his phone he messaged Izou to tell him that Ace was out of surgery but that he would stay with him until he woke up.

He also took the time to call the hospital director, speaking with him for a few minutes, informing him that he would need a month off starting today. He explained the situation and luckily the director agreed.

To catch up on lost work, he did promise that he would help as much as possible in the coming vacation times of other members. He'd tell that to Ace while he was recovering. It wasn't anything new. He had been doing it for several years.

He was already very happy that they didn't make any problems of it for him to take such a long leave without upfront notice. Smiling but worried, he took a hold of Ace's hand, gently brushing his thumb over it while waiting for him to wake up. They would probably keep him through the day and night, to make sure everything was okay.

It was about 20 minutes later when his husband finally started opening his eyes, blinking while looking around him, seeming to be a little confused as to where he was. He saw Ace looking towards their intertwined fingers before following the arm up, all the way until their eyes locked.

Not even a second later, a wide dopey smile took over his face, "Marcoooo~! Hello!"

Ah, yep, still under the influence of the anaesthetic, he tried not to laugh at Ace while he answered "Hello love-yoi, how are you feeling?"

"I- I'm feeling great! haha" He looked around the room again and pouted "Marco! You painted the room without me! I wanted to help, I love painting!"

He quirked an eyebrow, well, that a first that he heard that, as far as he knew his husband wasn't that artistic. "I didn't paint the room Ace ,this i-"

"You diiiiid~ We... We had ... we had a blue walls?... yes... This, this is not blue" he pointed at the white walls, "you even went shopping for furniture" a few tears came in his eyes "without me~?" he once again pointed to something, following the finger it was... the heart rate monitor. Really Ace?

Marco stood up and gently held Ace's chin, giving him a small peck on the lips, "I swear that I didn't do anything without you. This is not our room, we're at the hospital, remember?"

Ace started at him and blinked, "Who's sick?" Before puckering his lips for another kiss, one which Marco happily gave him.

"No one's sick, love. You needed surgery."

"No? Why? I was... What were we doing... Ah! I WAS POUNDI-"

Marco quickly silence his husband with a kiss. He didn't need the whole hospital to know what they had been doing, and gossip spread like a wildfire here, he was sure everyone would already know of this by tomorrow.

Luckily his distraction worked and his dopey husband melted into the kiss before he kept asking for more the moment he tried to lean away. After some time, he did succeed in sitting down again, only for it to result in a pouting husband who still wanted kisses. His husband was so cute.

"Oh…." Ace suddenly perked up, having been absentmindedly looking at Marco's lips for the past 10 minutes without speaking. It wasn't anything unusual for patients just out if surgery to still dream off, it was funny to see though. But now that the anaesthesia did start to really wear off, he seemed to have come to the realization as to why he was here and why he needed surgery.

"Did… did Marcy…"

Marco nodded, his face going pink.

"So…. after I pulled out…."

"She's brought her hand down…."

"….my daughter ….broke my dick….."

Marco nodded and Ace's cheeks flushed. "She saw me…." Ace blushed as he realised that he was in the hospital and didn't want to speak to loudly for others to her, "Pounding … you…."

"Yes... she did…"

Both sat there, face bright red.

"I'm sorry-yoi, I shouldn't haven't been so loud…"

Ace smiled at his husband through the blush, "I like it when you're loud."

The blond's face seemed to become even brighter, "W-well. I wouldn't have been so loud if someone hadn't been pushing so hard."

"Oh you liked it and you know it~"

They looked at each other before laughing a bit.

"So, no sexy time for a few days?"

His husband coughed, "A month-yoi."

Ace looked at him and blinked, "You're just kidding me. It's a week, right? At most. I-"

"A month, Ace. And that's a minimum."

The freckled one frowned at his husband's forwardness. "A month… no sexy time for a month…?"

"Yea. Nothing at all-yoi."

Ace crossed his arms and huffed.

"Tell you what. Once you're healed up, I'll give you a blow job you'll never forget and then fuck you senselessly…." He quickly added when he saw Ace's eyes widening, "just don't think to much about it… I don't want to prolong your recovery for… reasons…."

Sighing Ace smiled at his husband. "So… besides sexy time. I can just do whatever….?"

"No." And Marco went on listing everything he wasn't aloud to do.

"But.. Marcy…."

"Already taken care of. I'm taking the month off."

"Is that alright? A whole month off... I can take care of myself... Probably... It's just Marcy" The raven looked close to tears "... I really can't hold her, not even a little?"

Marco knew how much Ace liked to hold Marcy, and he was sure he would try to pick her up in the future too if he wasn't careful, he had to be strict.

"Yes, I've already spoken to the director. And Ace, I need you to listen-yoi, I know you love carrying Marcy, but you can't. Not even to lift her to put her in her chair. It will put immense strain on you and you can rip stitches and other things, which will in turn prolong your recovery or could make it so it doesn't heal correctly at all. I'm sorry, but you really cannot pick her up, at least not for the coming month, and even then we'll have to get a check-up to record your healing process and continue from there."

Ace looked horrified not to be able to pick his daughter up. She loved being picked up and held. "We can tell her when we get home, so she knows and won't ask you-yoi."

He nodded at the info before he thought of something else, "Wait... where is Marcy.? You didn-"

"Of course not, Ace. Izou is with her."

Sighing in relief he melted a bit into the blankets, he knew Marco wouldn't do anything like leave their daughter alone. "What about my streams?"

"You will have to lay down. And take it easy."

"... Can I do one stream then, just a short one to tell everyone I'll be recovering from... A surgery… I don't want to lose the support I have by going offline for over a month without giving a reason..."

Leaning over Marco kissed his husband who was looking at him with pleading eyes, "Of course you can-yoi. I could also try and sett everything up so you can lay on the couch and maybe record you as you play games on the tv. I don't know exactly how to do it, but I'm sure we can figure something out."

Ace smiled softly "Thank you."

Before they could start on a next topic, a person entered the room. Marco stood up to make room for him. "Hello, sir Portgas. My name is Tony Tony Chopper, maybe you will still recognise me, but I am the doctor who has done your surgery. Marco may have already informed you of some things, seeing he is knowledgeable of this too, but to be sure that you have all the info, I will be going over the report of your surgery and your recovery too." Simply nodding, Ace let him say whatever he had to report.

Afterwards Ace thanked him before looking at Marco with big eyes, looking slightly scared. "A catheter? Marco? I can't pee? I am going to need to stick that in, every time? Isn't it going to hurt? How-how do I even get it in!"

"It's fine darling-yoi, I'm going to help you with it. Yes, it will hurt, but I'll be home with you."

Seeming a little comforted by the fact he was there to help, he even gave a small laugh "I guess having a doctor's boyfriend is kind of convenient."

The blond chuckled, tapping on a ring around Ace's finger, "Husband, babe." Leaning in he kissed his forehead.

Lifting his hand, Ace looked at the ring around his finger, reaching out for Marco's hand after, swiping a finger over the ring he was wearing before he intertwined their hands. "Haha yes, married, husband!" he smiled brightly at Marco while swinging their linked hands around as much as he could while laying in bed.

"Married indeed. Already around 6 years now." He kissed the other's ring. "Are you going to be okay for awhile while I run home and change and take a shower?" It was nearly midnight, and even if he had gotten permission to stay after visiting hours, he didn't want to overstay his welcome and get anyone in trouble. Plus… his backside was really starting to feel…. Icky from their… fun… earlier in the day.

Ace rubbed his eyes with his free hand and nodded "yea, I'm getting a bit tired too so I think I'll just sleep. You will be back tomorrow?"

"You know I will." He smiled as he deposited a kiss to his husband. "I'll have to bring Marcy with me tomorrow. She probably won't like it if I try to leave her at home knowing her daddy got hurt."

Humming Ace leaned into the kiss, already feeling his eyelids becoming heavier. "I would like tha-" a yawn interrupted him "-at, I'll see you tomorrow, love you."

"I love you too-yoi." He lent over and gave him another kiss, waiting a few moments for the freckled one to fall asleep before leaving.

Once Marco had gotten home, he thanked Izou again for coming to watch Marcy and explained, in less detail then the man had wanted, what had happened. Since Marcy had been asleep already he couldn't speak with her.

The next day, when Marcy woke up, he had a little talk with her, and simply explained that Daddy was okay, but was a bit hurt and had to stay at the hospital. He made sure that Marcy knew they weren't mad at her, but that she shouldn't do it again.

"Wanne see Daddy."

"We can visit him after lunch."

And thus, once lunch was over, they made their way over to the hospital, Marco carrying her until they were in the ward, it was a big distance for the little girl to walk herself. But once they arrived he put her down, not wanting to rub it in his husband's face that he could still carry her but he couldn't.

"Daddy's in the last room on the left-yoi, if you take my hand we ca-"

"DADDYYYY!"

And there she went… running towards the room, entering it without hesitation. With an embarrassed smile he apologised to the staff at the counter, they only smiled at him and said it was okay and that she had grown a lot since Marco last showed pictures. Marco nodded before hurriedly walking to the room.

"-an't Marcy."

"Mad."

"I'm not mad, I am just not abl-"

"UPSIES!"

Marco could already hear the conversation and was praying this wouldn't get out of control, Ace normally always picked Marcy up the moment they saw each other. Entering the room he could see his daughter with dewy eyes and hands held up towards Ace, standing on her tiptoes next to the bed.

His husband saw him enter and was looking at him with pleading eyes, asking for help.

"Marcy-yoi. Daddy can't lift you up."

"But-"

"No, no upsies" And that was too much. Not a second after the words left his mouth, Marcy started bawling like no tomorrow and at a volume you wouldn't expect from a human this tiny. Shit.

Marco quickly shut the door to drown out the noise as much as he could, silently thankful that Ace was the only patient in this room. He walked over and got down next to Marcy, picking her up in the process.

"Mar-" he tried to call for her but she just cried louder. He sat on the bed and put her on his lap and spoke seriously. "You need to stop. Remember, we're in a hospital, lots of people are sick and they need to sleep."

Marcy started sniffing, crying becoming a bit more silent but not stopping, she looked at her papa as tears still streamed down her tiny face. "You can give daddy a hug. But no upsies. Just like the other's here, Daddy is hurt and he can't pick you up. And no jumping on daddy."

She sniffed again, looking very sad. "Daddy's not mad sweetie." Ace said patting her head. "Daddy just can't pick you up right now. I still love you as much as I always do."

"Afta?" She sniffed, asking if she will be picked up later.

"Not later. It's going to be awhile. But daddy promises that Marcy will get lots if upsies once daddy's better."

With tears still on her face, she reached to hug her daddy, which Marco helped her to do and to also make sure she didn't try to climb on Ace and accidentally hurt him.

Ace hugged Marcy back, kissing her head "Daddy loves you Marcy, I could never be mad at you."

As he had his daughter in his arms, he looked to Marco and pointed to some stuff not far away, "The doctor already brought my discharge papers in, and the nurse put everything I had in the bag on the back of the wheelchair." Ace looked down at his daughter. "Sweetie, daddy needs to get up now so we can go home."

"Noooo" She whined, shaking her head.

"Marcy." Marco said in a warning tone. He hated using it, but it was necessary at times. The little girl looked down and let go of Ace, simply sitting on the edge of the bed, looking down at her shoes that were on the ground. Marco having taken them off before she climbed over to Ace.

Marco gave a sigh and picked up Marcy's shoes "Baby, you don't want daddy to be hurt more, right?" Marcy shook her head. "Then, I need you to listen to me and daddy and be calm, okay-yoi? The easier daddy can take it, and the more he rest he can get, the sooner he will be healed and can be back to how he always was and play with you, okay?"

"Okay. Marcy want daddy to be better."

Smiled he ruffled her hair before putting her shoes on "that's a good girl". He picked her up and put her on the ground next to the wall. "Stay there for a moment, I'm going to help daddy into the wheelchair that the nice nurses already prepared and then we can go home-yoi"

"Okay." She stood there for a moment before sitting on the floor as she watched her Papa help her daddy to the wheelchair. Marco didn't pick Ace up this time and just helped him to keep his balance.

Once Ace was seated, Marco went over and picked up Marcy in his arms. He took a moment to look between the wheelchair, his husband, and Marcy in his arms, he didn't think it through that he would need to and carry Marcy and push Ace all at the same time… At least the luggage could be hung up on the chair... Well… hopefully it would go well.

With Marcy in his arms he first went to open the door into the hallway before walking back to Ace. Grabbing the handles he started pushing him out. The staff at the reception of the ward wished them well and helped them by holding the next pair of doors open.

Marco was insanely happy that the doors in the hospital were automatic or had a slow closing function, making it easy and giving him enough time to open them before pushing Ace through and carrying his daughter at the same time.

Only the last door was a bit of a problem. He had parked in the employee parking lot, because why pay the visitor's one if you have a free pass? And well, this door wasn't used by patients, so no need for any special access or slow-close functions, it also opened inwards...

He stood before it, thinking for a moment about what to do. Manoeuvring Ace and opening it at the same time was already difficult, and without the slow close function, the door would be closed before he made it back if he went to open it by himself...

"Give me a moment Ace" Marco stepped passed the wheelchair and opened the door, checking if it had a stop, which it sadly didn't have. Hmm what could he use? A finger to his cheek made him look at his daughter "yes-yoi?"

"Marcy help. Hold door. Papa push daddy."

Marco took a second to judge the weight of the door and compare it to a three years old strength... Maybe... "Okay, you can try, but if it's too heavy, we will search for something else to hold it open."

He kissed his daughter's head before setting her down. "Now, be careful these doors are really heavy." He helped her open the door and she held it open like a pro by herself until Marco and Ace came through. Once they were outside she let go and sat on the ground, panting a bit.

"Great job sweet heart." Ace said smiling down at her and Marco scooped her back up in his arms and kissed her head again. "Thank you-yoi, you're our hero."

Getting to the car, Marco first strapped Marcy in the backseat before lifting his husband up and putting him in the car. With the car being lower to the ground, it would have been a lot more difficult and painful for Ace to try it himself. "I'm going to bring back the wheelchair, I'll be back in a few minutes."

Marcy watched as her papa brought the wheelchair back. "Daddy?"

"Yes sweetie?" He flipped the sun visor down so he could see Marcy without needing to try and turn in his seat.

"Do you love me?"

"Of course I do.", he blinked, did she still think he was mad at her?

She instantly smiled, "Then….Can we have McDonald's?"

Ace chuckled. Yup. This was his kid alright.

"Maybe if we both look very cute, we can convince papa to drive past. You remember the puppy eyes I taught you?"

After a moment Ace could see his daughter making her eyes wider, pouting with her lower lip, and ... was she faking tears? oh wow she was getting good.

"Perfect." And gone were the tears and a laugh escaped Marcy.

Some minutes later Marco returned and buckled himself in the car, before he could leave Marcy spoke. "Papa, can we get McDonald's?"

"I'm sorry Marcy-yoi, Daddy is probably very tired, we should just go h-... or not..." at mentioning Ace he had looked over, only to be bombarded with the cutest pleading eyes ever. "Ehm... I think that-..." Looking back towards Marcy she had the exact same puppy eyes as Ace, and... were those tears!?

"..."

"Pllleeaassee" Both his husband and daughter pleaded at the same time, two pairs of eyes growing bigger every times he switched between them.

"... fine-yoi."

Marcy cheered happily and then started to tell Ace that uncle Izou had come over the night before as Marco left the hospital parking lot.

"Izou you say huh, how nice, did you have a nice evening with him?" He slowly gave a sidewards glance to Marco, knowing Izou was the biggest gossip of all of his brothers and would definitely visit soon to practically interrogate them. He got a whispered 'I'm sorry, he lives closest' in return. He listened to his daughter talk, making small remarks in between her stories to show he was listening. While surprised he hadn't fallen asleep yet by the time they came home, even having stopped for food, keeping his eyes open was becoming very difficult.

Once they got home, Marco brought Marcy to play in the backyard to burn off some energy. Before he took her out, he told Ace he'd get the bed in his game room sett up since stairs were going to be an issue.

"Okay, see you in a bit" Ace smiled as Marco went inside the house.

The older one quickly sett up the bed and put sheets over it and got Ace's own pillow and blanket from upstairs. They had spares in the gaming room, but since it would be for a longer time, having his own would be nicer.

Going back outside not much later, he opened the car door only to find that his husband had fallen asleep. Gently, as to not wake him, he picked him up and closed the door before carrying him inside. Tucking him in the bed with the clothes he was wearing, they were comfortable clothes so it wouldn't matter right now, he was afraid that if he changed him, he would wake up. He put some water and a small snack on a small table he had placed nearby and made sure his phone was within reach, should he need something and he didn't hear him calling. The soundproofing of Ace's gaming room was nice, but it also meant if the door closed by accident, you couldn't hear inside.

For the rest of the evening, Marco relaxed on the couch, scrolling through his phone. He had asked Izou to not to mention this to anyone. He knew Ace would be uncomfortable with the family asking how he had been feeling and having to explain how it happened. He looked up when he heard footsteps and saw Marcy running into the house. "What's wrong sweetheart?"

"Potty!" She called to him as she went into the bathroom, leaving the door open.

He smiled and shook his head before continuing to scroll, she was growing up so quickly.

Hearing the toilet flush a few minutes later, he waited a moment..., "Papa help!", there it was. Getting up he put his phone down and went to Marcy who was trying to wash her hands but couldn't reach the sink. Picking her up he set her on the counter and she continued to wash her hands by herself. Once she was done Marco helped her dry them and brought her back to the living room.

"Do you want to nap with Papa-yoi? Or do you want to go and play in your room, quietly?"

"Play!" She cheered.

Smiling he bent down and took off her outdoor shoes. She raced off upstairs as soon as allowed making Marco shake his head as he made sure to close and lock the backdoor again.

Before he could sit down again, he heard a curse coming from the gaming room and quickly made his way over. Inside he saw that Ace was trying to sit up, but failing, seeing that he was half laying, half sitting with a pained face.

"Ace!" Marco rushed to his side and helped him sit up, once up Ace leaned into Marco, panting a little "Thank you, Marco."

"What's wrong Ace? I told you to call for me, didn't I?"

"...I don't want to start bothering you from the first moment I wake up."

Marco kissed his hand "Ace, you wouldn't bother me by asking for help, plus, you're injured, you shouldn't exert yourself. I am home to take care of you, so allow me to do so, please." when Ace nodded he asked again what was wrong and why he was getting up.

"I just need the bathroom." Ace mumbled. Marco blinked, "I'll grab the catheter. I'll be right back."

Haven gotten the needed items, Marco returned to the room and locked the door, placing everything he needed on the bed before kneeling in font of Ace.

"Marco?"

"Yes, Ace-yoi?"

"Aren't... Aren't we going to the bathroom?"

"Well, we could if you really want to, but seeing that standing, not to mention walking, is still difficult for you, and picking you up a lot also isn't good, I thought we could just do it in here, and use a container that I'll dispose of later."

"I ehm..." Ace was embarrassed to say the least, but his husband was looking at him as always, not judging him about any decision he would make, "Ehm, if... if you think here is best... I'll... I'll do it here."

Seeing the raven uncomfortable, he stood up for a moment to give Ace a kiss and lean his forehead against him. "I'm sorry about this, Ace, I know it's a bit uncomfortable and probably strange. I promise we'll use the bathroom as normal as soon as you can stand and walk a bit without being in pain, okay?" Feeling Ace nod, Marco kneeled again and opened the pants before him. Pulling at the other's boxers he released the member underneath, making sure to only touch it as much as necessary.

Reaching for the wash cloth he brought, he gently washed the surface around the tip to make sure no bacteria would be pushed in when he inserted the catheter. Even though he wasn't pressing with the cloth, he heard Ace hiss and saw him bite his own lip.

"You can hold my shoulders and squeeze them if you want, Ace. Normally, a catheter is more uncomfortable than that it causes pain, but with the appendage being broken, it won't be pleasant for as long as it hasn't healed."

Wordlessly Ace followed the instructions to grab onto shoulders. Once Ace was calmed down a bit, Marco grabbed the catheter and put the end in the container that he had put between his legs, before he covered the tip of it in some lubrication gel. With a soft grip he took hold of Ace's penis, "Ace, I'm going to insert it, alright?"

Receiving a nod, he carefully started pushing it in, at the same time he could feel Ace start to squeeze his shoulders. He wouldn't look up to see Ace's face right now, not only because he didn't want to lose focus on his task, but also to give the man some form of privacy.

He slowly pushed it in until urine started flowing out, once it did he pushed it a small bit higher before holding it steady, waiting until the flow stopped. When it was done, he carefully removed the catheter and put it in a small trash bag. Marco had made sure to request the disposable catheters from Chopper, they being more sanitary then washing the re-usable ones. He wiped over Ace's member one more time with the wash cloth and dried it before dressing him again.

"I'll be right back" Taking the container and trash bag he went to dispose of it and wash his hands before returning to Ace. He sat down next to him and hugged him, cradling his head in his hands "You did great, love."

Ace took a shaky breath, it had hurt and he was embarrassed, but he was grateful that it was over and Marco didn't make any remarks on it, "And….. that's every time I need to use the bathroom?"

Marco nodded sadly and Ace swore. "I think I'd trade my dick for a vagina, at least that can't be broken." He gave his husband a grin, "but you don't like those, so it would be pretty pointless. Unless I attached a dildo to it. I could fuck you with that, and it could vibrate too, extra fun haha."

"Haha, I'm glad you can still laugh about all of this. And vagina or not, as long as it's attached to you, I'll love it like it's the last thing on earth."

The freckled one blushed at the weird compliment and smiled as he kissed his husband.

He thought back to the events and sighed, "Well, I can't be mad at Marcy. She thought I was hurting you... Speaking of which, where is she?"

"Oh, she went to play in her room." And as soon as those words left his mouth, he heard a crash from upstairs. "Stay, don't you dare move. I'll be back." He ran out the open door and up the stairs.

Seeing his office door was open, he went in to see Marcy sniffing on the floor, a bunch of books around her that had fallen from the shelf, but she was holding one.

"Marcy!" Marco rushed over to inspect her, making sure she was okay. "What are you doing in Papa's office? You know you're not allowed in here by yourself." He picked her up in his arms. She was still holding a book. He carried her down the stairs and into Ace's room.

Ace saw the tears and was instantly worried, in the last moment he could catch himself from standing up, but did reach out, waiting for Marco to place their daughter next to him. "Marcy baby, what's wrong? Why are you crying, are you hurt?" Marcy sniffled a bit and hugged her daddy, using his shirt as a tissue at the same time. Ace noticed the book in Marcy's hand "Hmm, you got a book, what is it?"

"Marcy broken" she sniffed and Marco checked her head. "Stay with daddy. Papa's going to get something for that boo boo." Marco stood up and went to get an ice pack and wrapped in a cloth before returning to his husband and daughter. He took his place next to them and pressed the ice pack gently to her head.

"Is cold."

"I know sweetheart-yoi, but it will help, now can you show us the book?" Marcy held it away from her chest to show "The human body, for kids? Why do you have that?"

"Marcy broken." She repeated and sniffed, both men looked at each other confused before clueing in. Marco wrapped his arm around her. "You're not broken, sweetie."

"But I don't have a wee wee."

"Because girls don't have those." He gently took the book and flipped in a few pages that showed the lower half of the body. He pointed at the female body. "You have a vagina."

"... Daddy and papa don't have vajana?"

"Vagina, and no, we have a penis, since we're both male."

"Then... Auntie... auntie has like Marcy?" (A/N: Auntie = Haruta)

Marco nodded, his daughter caught on so quickly, "Right. Auntie is the same as Marcy. She has a vagina too." And he is still scarred for life by seeing it.

"Papa okay? Look sick?"

"Papa is okay." He looked to his daughter and smiled, yea, she was well worth staring at his sister vagina for the delivery. Ace's face had gone red too. Looks like he never forgot either.

After sitting for a bit, Marco took the ice pack off Marcy, seeing as she wasn't paying attention to it anymore.

"I'm going to start supper. What would you like?"

"Pasta's good."

"Pasta!"

Marco chuckled, "Pasta it is then. When it's done, we can eat it in here, and only in here, and on the tray-yoi." He said looking at his daughter who gave him an innocent smile. Far too many times had she sneaked food into different rooms and stashed it somewhere only for it to be forgotten in its hiding spot, or spilling it over the most difficult to clean places.

While waiting, Ace sat with his arms around Marcy as they watched a show on the TV in his room. Marco came in with three fold up trays some time later and gave one to Ace and set the other two up for Marcy and himself. Leaving again he came back in with one other, normal, tray that had their plates and drinks. He set Ace's down first, then Marcy's, then his own, and got comfortable on the bed as they ate and watched cartoons.

8pm soon came and Marco took Marcy for her bath. Before putting her to bed, he went by Ace again and his daughter jumped on Ace's fold up couch to carefully give him a hug, "Love daddy."

"Daddy loves Marcy too. Good night, sweetie." He gave her a kiss on the cheek before Marco brought her upstairs and tucked her in. He set up the baby monitor so he could watch her, they normally didn't use it since their room was close by, but now he planned on staying downstairs with Ace in case he needed anything. So, the baby monitor would allow him to hear and see if Marcy needed anything too even if he wasn't as close by as usual.

He spent the rest of the evening next to the love of his life, watching some more series until he felt the other slump against him. Laying him down gently, he pulled the blankets up and kissed him goodnight. Leaving the room, he settled himself on the living room couch, baby monitor and phone on the coffee table.

Even if the couch couldn't compare to his own bed, with all the events that had happened today, he too was out like a light within seconds.
