Hey Guys!

Started a new one. This will focus on a really difficult subject. That is why there will be some hard content. So, if you don't want to read about mental abuse, perhaps sexual assault or something similar matter, then please don't read this story.

One Piece doesn't belong to me! It belongs to Eiichiro Oda ^^

Edit: I changed some things in the first chapter and I also started to post it on ao3, so don't worry, NubesAequum on ao3 is me. (30. January 2020)

Enjoy!

It was a beautiful sunny autumn day for Grand Line City in the month of October. Portgas D. Ace, 24 years old, just finished his work at the Whitebeard Company and was on his way back home by bus. His car is being repaired at the time. It broke down last week on the way to an important meeting. Gladly, he still made it in time thanks to his friend and colleague Marco Phoenix.

The bus finally made it to his district of the town, the East-Blue. Ace's station was reached and he hurriedly stepped out of the bus to finally breath fresh air.

God! Finally out of the bus!

Sluggishly he walked to his home. His two story house was standing on the Foosha Street. Right next to him on both sides were living his 'brothers' Sabo, 24 years old and Luffy, 21 years old. Sabo was on behalf of the government abroad at the time. Just now Luffy was watching something attentively in his front yard. When he looked around and spotted Ace a grin stretched on his youthful face and his attention was now only on his brother. With a big hop and a loud shout he made his way to the taller male.

"Yooooo! Aceeeeee!"

Before Ace could react his little brother already wrapped his arms and legs around his body and was hugging him so hard that Ace lost all his air in his lungs and hit Luffy on his back to let him go.

"Lu-…Luffy! Let go now!" He said while gasping for air. Right away Luffy let go and instead pushed himself against his brothers body, his face in Ace's chest and nuzzling his face against it.

"I missed you, Ace." The smaller raven mumbled. Lovingly Ace stroked Luffy's mop of hair. "I missed you, too. But, we saw each other just this morning."

With pouty lips and teary eyes Luffy looked up at his brothers face and whined, "But it's never enooooouuugh~!"

"Oi, Ace! How was work?" Came from the Luffy's house. Both raven looked up to see Zoro making his way to the brothers.

"Hey, Zoro! Work is like always. Just a routine." Ace answered the jade haired male. A big yawn left Zoro's mouth before he could continue the conversation. "I know exactly what you are talking about." Zoro was working as a physiotherapist and Luffy at a kindergarten.

Suddenly, Luffy detached himself from his body and waved enthusiastically while shouting 'Torao! Torao!' in a loop. Right at this moment, with a big sigh a tall man stepped out of his sleek black BWM and shut the door of his car close. "Good evening, Mugiwara-ya!" Greeted the man with a velvet smooth deep voice. The nickname from him came because Luffy always wore his trademark straw-hat, a gift from someone important to him.

Trafalgar D. Water Law, 30 years old, worked at the Drum Hospital as a doctor and was living at the house opposite of Ace. It was also Luffy's doing that this man was living here now. Luffy got to know him at a bar where an occasion was taking place and Ace's brother made it a habit to befriend everyone who was remotely interesting to him. Trafalgar just moved to this city and was living at a friend's apartment for the time being and he didn't know why but he told Luffy this all and now he was here. And yeah, when Ace had his eyes on him for the first time the first thoughts which occurred were 'Fuck, he is hot'. Since then there was some kind of tension in the air when they met.

"And good evening Zoro-ya. And what a pleasure to see you, Ace-ya. Haven't seen each other for a week now." Their neighbor talked further as he made his way to the group of three.

Yes, it was a week ago when he saw his neighbor. A deep blush showed itself under Ace's freckles. "It is nice to see you again, Trafalgar."

"Haven't I already told you that you should call me 'Law', Ace-ya?" The doctor asked with a smirk on his face, his eyes sparkling in a bold way.

Embarrassed, Ace replied back, "Ah, yes. I'm sorry, Law."

"Good." Law smirked and stared at Ace's face. Meanwhile Luffy was looking back and forth at Ace and 'Torao', puffing his cheeks. What was going on?

The freckled raven cleared his throat to speak again. "I-I have to go now. Still have some work to do. I will see you again little bro. Thank you for taking care of Luffy, Zoro." Then he turned around to his other neighbor. "Have a good evening Tralfalga- "

The addressed tall man glared at the freckled man. "I mean Law! Have a good evening, Law." Ace flushed, while Law smirked and responded. "Ooh, don't worry Ace. I will enjoy my evening to the fullest." The undertone in his sentence was so suggestive that Ace couldn't help to blush again. With a small nod Ace made his way to his house and waved the last time to the trio standing on the sidewalk. Closing the door he finally let out an exhausted sigh and put off his shoes and jacket and putting them to their respective places.

The first thing Ace did afterwards was to shower and change in comfortable clothes. Then he sat himself in his living-room to do the rest of today's work. Fortunately it wasn't much he had to do and he was done in record time with all the paperwork. When he finished he made himself something to eat and went back to the living room to look some TV.

Through his tasks on this evening Ace didn't sense or notice that someone was watching him, watching with greed and lust in his eyes every move the raven made. A camera was taken out of a little bag and the figure started making photos of Ace cooking, working and undressing himself, when he went to sleep. When the lights were turned off the figure retreated back to his own place…
