Hi~

So I said I would spoiler you for the last bonus chapters. Don't worry I read your comments. I know some of you want a pregnant Luffy to happen in the next chapter(or in this one already). But bear with me. I haven't finished the baselines for this bonus part, yet. This will be the first time I'll write mpreg (I have a OneShot dealinh with mpreg, but nit finished, yet). So I want to come up with a logical (as much as possible) reason how this could happen and how to go through the pregnancy for this timeline/universe. So if you have some wishes you want to see during the pregnancy, tell me now^^

But I promise you after the next two bonus chapters (who belong together), you will get a pregnant Luffy.

Also, topic children... Makino's child. I left the gender open but... I still unsure if I include it or not in the next chapters. So any suggestions for gender and name? And no, suggestions for Luffy's baby. That is fixed:x

Also, this chapter is updated earlier than planned as I have it done and I don't have much time to upload for this week. The next bonus chapter will come on the 25th May (if everything works out. but no promises there as I can plan that well at the moment).

Psycho the Random Vixen: Sorry, but you have to wait a bit. But I am open to ideas I can include because I feel like many just want some pregnant Luffy to annoy the hell out of Marco:x (other option would be a happy Whitebeard to have a grandchild)

sdkop21: Thank you^^ It will come. The labour scene~ mh, that does sound good. Just whose PoV. Luffy is out. That wouldn't be any fun, I guess.

CelinaB: You're welcome;) (happy to see that you still follow it^^)

firesword01: Thanks. Shanks wasn't with the others as he already knew about Luffy and Marco. He found out in Chapter 12 or 13(depends on the FF-count or my count). So I didn't include him in the chapter when I jumped around the characters. But I can imagine him laughing and then saying, come on we need to celebrate xD


~Bonus 3 - A date ~

Simple things had always worked for Marco and Luffy.

A picnic under the stars or just stargazing together were simple dates. But Marco treasured those more as the ones when some dragged them into a fancy restaurant and expected them to have a great time. He knew that Luffy felt the same way about their dates. (After all, Luffy always felt uncomfortable if it became fancy.)

So the decision to have a picnic in the evening and watched the firework and the stars together had been easy. It was the best choice for a date and for the thing Marco had planned.

The blonde sighed and looked around. The atmosphere of the place he had chosen was peaceful and the view of the lake close by was nice.

It seemed even better than on the island, they had their first real date after Fishman Island (even if they were still keeping their relationship a secret back then).

Marco bent down and controlled every item, he had taken with him to prepare everything.

The picnic basket, full of food courtesy by Thatch, stood in the middle of a light blue blanket. Another black blanket was folded next to the basket and on the top of the black one were two lamps.

Everything was there. Everything was in a good state. Good…

He then stopped his thoughts and took a small black box out of his pocket. Marco opened it and checked the content before closing it and letting the box disappear into his pocket again.

Good, these three hadn't messed with it. These three were Tess, Haruta and Izo. They had overheard his conversation with Vista and Jozu about this date. The trio shared the opinion that now he had to do something fancy as he was dating a royalty of the pirates.

They had done a good job to make him very suspicious of everything. It wasn't paranoia, yet, but close by.

He had worked with two men(well three, but Thatch only provided the food) who knew their handwork to help in making this date as perfect as possible for Luffy and him. Fancy stuff could be damned. He didn't want to impress someone… Just enjoy some private time with Luffy.

A small smile appeared when he thought about his lover. The boy (he should really stop saying that Luffy was already 23) should be here any second. It excited Marco to have Luffy for himself again. The last time they saw each other was a few months ago. Too long.

"Marco", a voice interrupted his thoughts. The smile grew wider and he turned around to see the speaker.

Monkey D Luffy, the pirate king, his lover.

Marco opened his arms lightly only to feel a familiar warmth crashing against him. He balanced his own weight plus the one of his boyfriend to swing him slightly to the air. A happy giggling reached his ear before the blonde let himself sink on the blanket.

"Missed you, yoi", Marco whispered against Luffy's lips, when he had the boy secured on his lap. "Missed you, too", was the soft replay, before they let actions speak.

Their kiss stayed soft but had a playful side. Marco caressed Luffy's right cheek while he let the other arm stay around his lover's waist. The pirate king had both of his arms around his neck and seemed happy to be able to cling to him again.

When their kiss ended, Marco felt how Luffy buried his head in the crook of his neck. The blonde was a bit surprised about this action but smiled and ruffled the black locks slightly.

"Congratulations, pirate king", Marco whispered and pressed a kiss on the top of Luffy's head. "No words about it. My crew is having too much fun with saying that I am a royalty now. So I should behave like one. But the pirate king should be free from this stupid behaviour", the boy grumbled. It made Marco laugh. "Then be lucky, I didn't follow some suggestions I got for this date. Some involved a fancy restaurant, yoi." Luffy snorted. Obviously displeased by the thought of going to some fancy restaurant like he expected it.

"Don't want that. I am still who I am. Pirate king or not. I'm just now freer than others", Luffy told him. "Wouldn't want to change you, yoi", Marco whispered and pecked his lover's lips. "Too short", the boy whined.

Marco chuckled. This chuckle turned into laughter when he heard Luffy's stomach rumbling. "How about we fill that black hole stomach of yours. We have the whole night for us, yoi." He kissed his lover who had a slight pout on his face.


Luffy was happy. Even if the food was gone now. But being fed by Marco and fed the blonde in return had been nice. Especially when it involved little kisses to share a grape or a strawberry. Even if it was against his principles to share food, with Marco it was fine (and nice because he gets kisses and food).

At the moment Luffy watched the blonde lighting up the lamps while he had the black blanket, his boyfriend brought along, around his shoulders.

"Won't it be bright enough when the fireworks start?" he asked and tilted his head a bit. "Maybe, but better now than later when it is more a guessing where everything is, yoi."

The pirate king nodded and lifted the blanket a bit. He heard a chuckle from Marco and knew the blonde had understood what he wanted. Seconds later, the blonde joined Luffy under the blanket and he was between his boyfriend's legs with his back leant against the chest, he liked to use as a pillow very often (more like every time when they shared a bed or slept close to each other).

It was nice to just be with Marco again. He only hoped that his crew would stay away. Because for some strange reason they were acting funny. Well funnier than usual.

Luffy felt soft kisses on his temples and decided worries be damned. He was here to enjoy the time, he had. The black-haired pirate king turned his head and nuzzled against Marco's neck.

When the firework started Luffy only turned his head a bit to be able to see it with one eye.

"Luffy?"

He lifted his head and looked at Marco. The blonde seemed … distressed and nervous. A combination, he had never seen on his boyfriend's face before.

"I seriously thought what I should, well more could say… I even let Vista help me as he is better in this stuff as I am… but now I don't think anything that we had said would include the right words… Especially since I thought I would never even consider this… but since we got together, I never want to let you go. But if I did that, I would have become an obstacle on your way to fulfilling your dream…"

Luffy blinked confusedly. "You would never become an obstacle", he whispered but was shushed with a thumb caressing his lips.

"Please… just wait until the end."

Luffy nodded. He didn't know what he should expect.

"Good… Your dream is something that was always a part of you. Something I never wanted to take away from you. Because one of the things that makes me happy is to see you smiling. Your smile, your personality… simply everything about you has become a treasure for me. One that I have to share… but that is fine because I know that you are mine as much as I am yours. But now since you fulfilled your dream, I wonder if it is the right time to… start or chase another one… which I like to share with you. A dream which can start with a simple question, yoi."

Luffy blushed lightly. He didn't know the question, yet, but he was sure that there is only one possible answer to Marco's question. He felt it.

A little black box snapped open in Marco's hands. Revealing a pair of simple silver rings. Luffy's eyes widened. Why did Marco have rings?

"Monkey D Luffy, can you imagine a life of staying together with me even when death try to part us? If yes, then… will you marry me, yoi?"

He was shocked. Never had he thought about marriage. Why would he? His dream had always been more important.

But even if he was shocked and had never thought about it. He knew the answer ins his heart and would have answered the when Marco would have asked him earlier in their relationship.

"I can imagine it." Luffy sobbed but he didn't feel sad. "Of course, we are sharing that dream." He felt Marco's thumb brushing softly the tears of happiness away. "I love you. I love you very much, Marco. I will marry you when that means we stay together forever."

"It does, yoi", Marco whispered with a silly happy smile on his face. The blonde slipped one ring on his finger before the other ring was slipped onto one of the Phoenix's fingers.

"Even behind eternity, yoi."

Then their lips connected. Luffy closed his eyes happily about the feeling of being treasured like he was the most important thing to his boy… no. Marco was still his lover, but not his boyfriend any longer. What was the exact title for Marco now?


the prompt was more details of their date mentioned in chapter 8/9 if I remembered it right. But I couldn't think of sweet details and it got to that one. And now everyone knows what the last two ideas are. Also, the wedding was already on my mind since I got some comments about them having a wedding that the plan formed in my mind, but I didn't want the official story part to end with the wedding:x

so see you on 25th May ;)
