Marco frowned when his phone rang, and even more when he saw it was Ace. Ace should just be off work. Since his accident, it has been 2 weeks. Ace still used crutches, but it was better and he could somewhat put pressure on the leg. He moved the green circle and answered it. "Hi, Ace, anything wrong, yoi?" He heard Ace speak and he could hear he sounded upset. "I'm really sorry! But someone dented your car…" Marco blinked. "What? Are you okay, Ace? Was it another accident, yoi?" He was scared Ace was injured more. He heard Ace take a breath. ""N-no. I just got off work and there is this dent in it… On the door. I'm really sorry!" Ace actually sounded like he was almost crying. "Hey hey, it is fine, yoi. You didn't do anything, okay? We'll fix it. Are you on your way home?" He heard Ace breathing a bit raggedly. "Y-yes. I am soon home." Marco nodded. "I will go off early, and we will fix this, okay? You didn't do anything wrong, yoi." Ace let out a breath. "Okay..." He then gave another reassurance, before he hung up with a bye and headed home, sending a message to Pops that he left early today, it was usually fine. He quickly got a message back that it was fine and he headed home. When he did get home, Ace was already there and he checked the car that stood in the driveway, and it wasn't a big dent, but a dent.

He then headed inside and found Ace in the living room, who stood up when he opened the door and gave an apologetic look. "I'm really sorry about the car." Marco shook his head and moved over to Ace and hugged him. "No no, I am just glad you are fine, yoi. The car can be fixed, Ace." Ace nodded and he leaned back and Ace looked upset. "I am still sorry." Marco shook his head. "Don't be. As long as you are fine, I don't care. You didn't do this on purpose." Ace nodded. "Well, yeah…" Marco gave a smile to Ace and moved his hand to his cheek. "You are fine, and the car, I will call the auto shop and get an appointment, yoi." Ace nodded and gave a half watery smile. "Okay." Marco gave a reassuring look. "Don't be upset. Okay, yoi?" Ace nodded. "I will try." He really didn't want Ace to be upset since another person was careless. That wasn't Ace's fault.

The rest of the day went by fine and he did call the shop, who said he could come in on Saturday and they would fix it within a couple of was good. The next day went by fine, then they headed to Trevor's, and when he was at the table and had made sure Ace was fine at his own table, Marco sighed and looked at the others. "Sometimes, I don't know what to do. It is like he expects the worst, yoi." Trevor gave a shrug. "He is new. Give him time." Mihawk nodded. "I agree. He is new and this is a lot to take in for him." Marco nodded and looked at Mihawk. "I also know you called him, yoi." Mihawk nodded. "I did. Zoro was worried and wanted me to call." Marco got that and was glad the others seemed close. Penguin gave a hum. "Give him time. He will get better at this. How are you with scenes? Also, why did Mihawk call?" Marco gave a sigh. "Ace had two, somewhat, major breakdowns. One because of this whole ordeal with his brothers. And the other since I was stupid and left him in the corner for a minute, yoi. So, Mihawk called to make sure I was being nice." Penguin frowned. "Why did the corner make him break down?" Marco sighed. "Bad memories from his childhood. I really shouldn't have left that minute, yoi." He really shouldn't have. Penguin nodded. "But it went fine. You were there." Trevor nodded. "I agree with that. You were there. You were what he needed." That was also true. Ace was fine now.

He then looked at the others. "I also wonder. Ace is still friends with his first girlfriend. Is that weird, yoi?" He was unsure, especially seeing how close the two were. Penguin blinked. "Did you say 'girlfriend'?" Marco nodded. "I did. And they are really close, yoi." Trevor nodded. "I haven't heard much about things like that, but I have to say it doesn't sound too weird. I mean, he is gay, not bi, it seems like." Marco nodded, that was true. Penguin gave him a look. "But you didn't answer my other question. How are you with scenes?" Marco nodded. "Good, I feel like. He is very… innocent at times. Just so cute, yoi." Trevor nodded. "I can actually see that." That was good. Mihawk nodded. "I am just glad they get along so well." Marco nodded, he was as well. They really seemed close already. "I think knowing the others really helps him, as he can ask questions and hear others being in the same situation, yoi." He really did believe that, and the others nodded, seeming to agree.

Marco then remembered something. "Also, someone dented my car, Ace was borrowing it since his got ruined in the crash, and he was so terrified to tell me, yoi. And it wasn't his fault, he was at work and someone probably parked too close and knocked it with their door it seems like, but he was utterly terrified, yoi." Penguin frowned a bit. "What did you do?" Marco hummed. "Calmly asked what had happened and handled it calmly and said it wasn't his fault, yoi. He was almost crying even." Trevor nodded. "I think he is imagining the worst. Mika did that for a period with me. But that was since her last one wasn't as nice." Marco nodded, he knew Mika's previous wasn't the best. "How did you fix it, yoi?" Trevor hummed. "Not an easy fix. Just always stick with being calm and be there for your sub. And she slowly got better and better. I still remember when she safeworded, and I was so scared I ruined everything, but no, just that allergic reaction, and she didn't seem scared to do it." Marco nodded, that was something he was scared of. Him doing something and Ace not saying anything against when he should, if Marco pushed a bit too hard or went too far with something. But it was good to know Mika did get better. "I will do my best, yoi." Penguin nodded. "And no one is expecting more than that."

Trevor nodded. "Also, Mika also got to this point where she tried to get on my nerves, just to check the line and how I would react. Not saying Ace will do that, but he might. That means he is getting more safe and just wants to be sure you are, well, nice. Which you are." Marco nodded, that was good to know, so he could be ready for that in case Ace did it. They then sat and spoke for the rest of the evening, before they left, and while he and Marco were in the car, he moved his hand to Ace's leg. "Want to stop for some food, yoi?" Ace frowned a bit. "But, we ate at Trevor's?" Marco nodded. "Yes, but I know you need more food, yoi." Ace gave a small chuckle. "Maybe. I would probably like it." Marco nodded. "It is decided then. Let's stop, yoi." Ace nodded and they stopped at a fast food restaurant and got some food to go and ate at home. He was sure things would go fine.

Marco moved to kiss Ace and slowly moved towards the bedroom, making so Ace didn't fall, who was walking backwards as they were making out. When they did get to the bedroom, Marco moved Ace so he laid on the bed, Marco above him, leaning on his elbows and knees, Ace having his arms around his neck as their lips were still connected. They then made quick work of their clothes, before Marco grabbed the bottle of lube in his bedside drawer, coating his fingers and moving his hand to Ace's hole and penetrating it. Ace arched a bit as he moaned, and Marco loved every moan Ace did, going straight to his member. When he felt Ace was prepared enough, he removed his hand from his hole and coated his member with the lube, before he lined up with Ace, and before he entered, he moved his lips to Ace's in a deep kiss as he entered, making Ace moan into the kiss, and he felt Ace's back somewhat arch. Ace was so sensitive.

He was contemplating if he should bring out any of the toys they had, but when Ace moaned again, he decided he wanted Ace to himself right now, and made sure to aim his thrust so Ace moaned every time he thrusted inside. Ace was just so perfect. He moved one hand to Ace's head and grabbed some hair, carefully tugging at it, while the other went to a nipple and played with it, making Ace give a strained moan. he then moved his head to Ace's neck and nibbled on it, before he moved his mouth to Ace's ear as he was moaning more and more. "Touch yourself, yoi." He breathed into his ear, it had Ace groaning, but a shaky hand did move to his member, and Marco made sure to lean a bit up so he could watch the pretty picture of Ace stroking his member, eyes half closed and moaning with every thrusts.

When he felt Ace was nearing his finish, recognizing it on how he moaned more strained and how his hand sped up, Marco lightly shook his head and looked down at Ace. "No no, hold it in, yoi." Ace groaned, closing his eyes as his unoccupied hand went to the sheets behind his head. "N-no~! Please Marco! I need to cum!" Marco chuckled, looking at Ace. He loved to hear him beg, to see him so close to cumming and just begging for it.. He removed his hand from Ace's nipple and moved to Ace's hand that was clutching the bedsheets, making Ace clutch his hand instead. "Just a bit more." Ace shook his head. "No! I can't! Marco! I can't! Please let me cum!" He was glad they didn't have any close neighbors, as they would have certainly heard Ace. He squeezed Ace's hand and therusted more deeper as he was feeling himself finish, and just before, he looked down at Ace. "Okay, you can cum, yoi." It had Ace groan and it didn't even take a second before he felt Ace cuming and thightening around him, making him give a groan as he reached his own finish. They then rode out their pleasure, before he slipped out and moved to lie down next to Ace.

Marco, who was still holding onto his hand and squeezed it. "You are amazing, do you know that, yoi?" Ace chuckled, moving to lie on his side. "I know. But you are too tough." Marco chuckled and moved to kiss Ace, before they cleaned themselves up and went on with their day. And when evening came, he was surprised when Penguin called, and when he asked what it was, Penguin sighed. "Shachi got another speeding ticket. I literally have no idea what to do." arco blinked, that was the third one he knew about. "Why was he speeding? I mean, one or two can be an accident, but he is more careful than that, yoi. Was there a reason?" It was silent for a few seconds, before Penguin spoke. "Damn, I didn't think about that." Marco nodded. "What did you do before you called me?" Penguin sighed. "I asked him to wait in our room while I called you." Marco nodded. "Speak with him. Maybe he has a reason, yoi. If he has none, that he was just being careless or something, some spanks might be in order." He heard Penguin breathe out. "Yeah, I will. Thanks." Marco shook his head. "No, it was nothing. Hope it all turns out well, yoi." Penguin sighed. "Yeah, me too." They then hug up, and he went to the living room with Ace, who was watching Dr Phil, and he joined him.

After about an hour, his phone rang again and it was Penguin. When he answered it, Penguin gave a breath. "Yeah, he had a reason. He was late to meet his mother, completely forgetting it was today they would meet. Not the best reason though. But he wasn't speeding that fast, as I just now looked at the ticket. Just like 8 miles over." Marco nodded. "But it is a reason. But as you said, not a good one, yoi. Some small punishment might be in order, if you feel so. It wasn't that fast.. But then again, he should be more careful. Why didn't he say that from the beginning he was late to meet her?" Penguin sighed. "Was scared I wouldn't care. But I do. I will think of what to do." Marco nodded. "Nothing too big, as he didn't mean to." That was what he felt. But still, 3 times isn't good. He heard a breath. "Yeah, sure. I'll tell you how it went when we meet at Trevor's." Marco nodded. "Good, yoi."

They then hung up, and when he did, Ace looked at him. "Who was that?" Marco hummed. "Penguin. Shachi got another speeding ticket." Ace blinked. "Oh no, he did? he said he felt so bad last time." Marco nodded. "But this time, he was late for something, yoi. And wasn't speeding that much." Ace nodded. "What would you have done if it was me?" Marco hummed. "For one ticket or 3?" Ace thought for a second. "Both?" Marco nodded. "For one, most likely something small, maybe a reprimand. For 3, most likely the corner, since I know that is a hard thing for you. If not that, some spanks." Ace nodded. "Should we practice more there? With the corner?" Marco hummed. "Do you want to?" Ace nodded. "Yeah, I mean, I want to be able to do it. It is just a stupid corner." Marco shook his head and moved his hand to Ace's leg. "It is not. You have a legit reason to not like it, childhood trauma, yoi." Ace really did have a reason. Ace nodded. "Yeah… But still, I want to do it." Marco nodded and smiled. "Let's try. I won't sit with you this time, but I won't leave the room, yoi." Ace nodded. "Okay." They then prepared for it, him asking one more time if Ace wanted this, which he said yes to. And then they were ready and Ace sat down on the chair and looked at the corner.

He kept a close eye on Ace, but didn't speak with him. If this would be used as a punishment, he wouldn't speak with Ace. After about 15 minutes, he noticed Ace's hand shaking a bit, and he decided this was enough and said Ace was done, which Ace seemed glad for. He then praised Ace for it, which made Ace smile. Marco had a feeling things were going well for them. Ace was an amazing person and Marco loved him a lot.
