When Sabo awoke, his cheek was pressed against something very warm and very soft. Something similarly warm and soft was held in his arms, and one drawn breath told him that it was Luffy by the scent of sea salt and hickory. On Luffy's other side, with arms extended to reach over the youngest and hang on to Sabo as well, was Ace and his enviably long arms.
A quick glance down told Sabo that he was the most dressed of the three of them — he wore an open button-down and pyjama shorts, while Ace was shirtless (as always; the man just hated shirts) and Luffy completely naked.
Sabo tried to lift his head, but the skin of his cheek was sticking to the skin of Luffy's shoulder. His movement roused Luffy into wakefulness.
"G'morning," he greeted with a sleepy smile. "Watcha doin'?"
"I'm stuck," said Sabo. He felt Luffy's shoulder shake with a quiet, lazy sort of laughter. "Hey, can you do me a favour? Wake Ace up and give him something for me."
Luffy hummed. "Give him what?"
Sabo answered by pushing his lips against Luffy's for a second, chastely and messily. "That."
"Oh, that."
Luffy turned around to Ace, who slept on obliviously. He prodded Ace in all the places he knew from experience needed to be prodded with a soft chant of "Ace, Ace, wake up, Ace," until finally, Ace groaned and squirmed a little.
Ace's eyes opened, irritation obvious, but closed again much more contently when Luffy caught him in a kiss.
Sabo shifted, now leaning over them, so he could get a better view. The kiss his loverboys were sharing now was certainly less chaste than the one he had given Luffy not a minute earlier. When wandering hands started getting involved, he decided to cut in.
"Hey now," he said, eyes twinkling, "we have the rest of the day ahead of us for that."
The two separated reluctantly. Ace shot him a mock-glare and Luffy pouted at him.
"You told me to," Luffy mumbled as Ace pulled him into his arms and nuzzled his hair.
"Yeah, you told him to," Ace muttered in agreement. "…What'd he tell you to?"
At the same time, Sabo had already rolled off the bed and was getting dressed for the day. Pulling on his sock, he said, "Are you two planning to just sit there and make out all day? We do have places to be, you know."
He received no answer. When he turned around, Ace and Luffy were all over each other once again, hands in more places than one could imagine and lips gradually adding to the exploration.
I'll take that as a 'sit there and make out,' then.
With a smile, Sabo shirked his shirt and joined them.
