Marco felt the soft lips of Ace. He didn't pushed his lips. He just rests his lips. All is going well when Ace spoke out of the blue.

"What are you doing lemon head?" Ace spoke while Marco was resting his lips on his. Marco backed away and looked at the kid with a question mark on his face.

"You sure know how to ruined a mood yoi. It's what you call a kiss." Marco advanced again. He softly gripped the kid's hair. Without any warning, he kissed the kid. Ace gripped the man's clothes tighter and tried to pushed him away. He felt the man began to move its lips.

Fuck I'm gonna die! Oxygen! I need you! He pushed the man again. Marco stopped and let go of the kid's lips but not letting the kid's hair go. Ace breathed for air.

"Are trying to fucking kill me?!" Ace shouted and gasped for air. Marco was just awed with the kid.

This kid is remarkable. But is that really the right reaction when you are being kiss? Seeing the kid panting for breath, it made the man advanced more and kissed the soft and tempting lips of the kid.

"Ahh! … Mmp! …" The kid wriggle under the man who is currently kissing him. Marco laid the kid on the bed for him to get a better view of the kid. He let go of the kid's lips and sucked its neck. The hands of Ace gripped the man's back hoping the man will stopped. But this just made the man aggressive. Ace shouted.

"Ahh! Stop it Pineapple head! Ahh!" Ace squirmed. Marco brought his head up and gazed at the kid. The kid's face is red.

Did he just call me Pineapple head? Ace heavily panted. Marco brought the the kid's hands above his head. This action of Marco made Ace shivered. He started to see the Marines that assaulted him back when he was still a child. The pain and all the fear came back.

Marci notice this shivering and called Ace with a worried tone. The kid just shook his head and started to squirmed uncontrollably. Marco let the kid's hands go. Ace brought his hands on his head.

'Shh... don't worry. We will not put it in' all the men inside the room laughed

Ace cried. Stop! Stop! He started to shake. Marco was beginning to get worried. He removed himself above the kid. He move to the side and picked Ace. Ace remembered the horrible scene. He started to shout and struggle. He got up and ran towards the corner and curled himself like a ball.

"Stop! Just please stop!" Marco was starting to feel guilty. He thought he scared the kid. He walked towards the kid. He hugged the child who was already crying. He never seen Ace in this state. Everything that the boy's action. All those emotionless face and pretending to be mute. Those actions were to hide his true feelings. To hide those tears. He patted the kid's back and hummed. Ace slowly started to sobbed. All those fear, disgust, all those things that he felt way back then was washed away by Marco. Hearing the man hummed made him feel better and safe. He snuggled close to the man. He remembered Aokiji. The man who was first to see his emotions. The comfort that he felt in Aokiji's arms, he was feeling it again. With the song that is entering his ears, he drifted to sleep.

Marco felt the weight of Ace. He then heard a snore. He slightly smiled and carried Ace and put him to bed. Looking at the kid, he lowered his face and kissed his lips. He got up and went out of the room. Thatch was waiting for him there.

"What are you doing here yoi?" Thatch shrugged his shoulders.

"Just wanted to say thanks to the kid."

"He's asleep. He got tired saving your ass yoi."
