Your Little One

"I'm not." A groan left him as I grinned deviously and he gave a look with those glasses still on his face.

"What is my li'l up to when I have a business meeting in just a few minutes on skype?" This hum left me with a smirk and soon turned whilst walking to the bed.

"I told you I'm not up to anything, I just wanted to give you a kiss, stupid." A look was there in questioning and I was climbing onto the bed to get the bear situated. "Theo and I will be over here playing a game." The words left me as blue eyes stared and I had my Gameboy out.

"One." A finger pointed and I chuckled with wiggles before relaxing against the big bear.

The video conference went on for a while and I soon felt myself grinning as I glanced to him. Marco was talking about something, making certain points and I knew it was mainly friendly chatter right now. My Gameboy was tossed against the bear as I moved off the bed and shifted quietly. A glance was to me for second before he looked back towards his laptop. I had pursed lips before quickly shifting down and crawling under his desk. This slight noise of confusion left him before I had lowered his chair, which he readjusted himself.

"No, it would be better if you did that." Hearing him talk all professional made me grin as I soon shifted to rub hands along his thighs.

He stiffened with an inhale of breath as he began to realize what I had been planning. A hand had moved to grab one of mine and pointed a finger towards me blindly. I licked my lip and some of my teeth as I shifted to suck on the digit. The other fingers gripped my hand as I ran my tongue along his finger and my other hand shifted to be resting near his crotch. He took his hand back as he was shifting something around.

"I have the work here, mentioning of our sales, did you forget?" Nothing commented back as he had an ear piece in the whole time and I smirked as I began rubbing his cock. Legs shifted and his lower back shifted forward as I noticed him preventing himself from making a noise. "I can repeat it all if you would like to hear my view on it, Mister Dracule, Mister Akagami." That had me giggle as I carefully rubbed his legs again as he talked of a sales report, but slowly let my fingers undo the button and zipper.

The bulge showing was his cock very pleased at the attention, though it's host may not be so much at this very moment. I was very happy that the semi-erection was pulsing against my fingers rubbing and I didn't waste time pulling down his underwear when he was done with the sales pitch. His breath hitched lightly, noticing his stomach shift in his shirt as I moved forward. A hand held the member as I soon took the head into my mouth. The body shifted as papers were lifted and moved around some more.

"Do you think something needs to be changed?" I giggled lightly at him being so professional and sucked on the head of his cock that was fully erect now. I pulled back for lips to rest to the head and I looked up. A paper was up as blue eyes gleamed down to me through glasses and I could tell he was having a dilemma of to praise me or to punish me. I held his member as I sucked along the side and noticed his face twist in pleasure for a moment before moving papers and going back to his work. "No, I will make sure to check my itinerary." The comment was made and I went back to pleasing him.

My mouth worked on his member as I made sure to be quiet and took him fully into my mouth after a few bobs. Legs shifted as I soon felt a hand in my hair and I sucked before beginning to bob my head carefully, not wanting to bump the desk. A breath left him, trying to cover it as a sigh for the conversation, but by how he gripped it was meant for me. I felt pride for being naughty and I attended to the head whilst keeping my rhythm of sucks and bobs. As I continued, I noticed he was close and soon began using my hand to pump him quickly. A jolt was there at the sudden change and I waited to soon be hit with his release. I was a little surprised it shot out onto my face and soon shifted to clean him up. Fingers massaged my head and I looked up at him to see him glance, face changing after he was looking to the computer.

"Excuse me, I need to use the restroom." That was all he said as he paused his video and turned off his mic. The body shifted as he looked down to me and smirked. "You always need to clean up the messes you make, Ace." A cheeky grin left me as I took a hand to have his fingers line the mess and I began sucking on them. This groan left him as he helped get more of the mess in my mouth and I noticed him shift, whilst I was dragged along. "I don't know if I should praise you or punish you." A low moan left me as I was on knees and he leaned over to kiss my lips.

"I don't know, do you have time in your itinerary, Mister Fennec?" I teased whilst he lowly groaned and shifted his tie off.

"Bed." A giggle left me as I got up and he soon followed after me. "Shirt, yoi." I took my shirt off and he commented my shorts next, making me more excited. My hands were gripped to go behind my back and his tie was around my wrists loosely. Lips kissed to my shoulder as he led me to get on the bed. "Bend over." I did as he said, face and chest finding the mattress and he was shifting around.

Waiting, he soon returned whilst shifting my underwear to start pulling them to the bottom of my thighs before I groaned at the feel of something rubbing between cheeks. Something pressed in and I gasped out lightly at the feel with low moans. Whatever it is was positioned in place as I felt something go around my waist, avoiding my erection, and then a snap was heard. Hands were gone and I rubbed my face to the bed as I soon turned my head to the end of the bed where he stood grinning.

"Be good until I am finished." A quiver went through me as I whined out.

"Y-You are just going to leave me here?" The question made him smirk whilst moving over the foot board so he could grip my chin.

"It's for being impatient, but also for being adventurous, so I am returning it." The hand shifted with a small remote in hand and I looked to it as I gave a curious pout. Lips kissed to my cheek and he pulled back whilst going to his desk for hand sanitizer. I whimpered lightly as the pressure there was different and I wasn't sure on what it was. "Don't move from there, little one." A finger pointed to me before going to lips. "And stay quiet." Going back to his chair, I whined lightly as I shifted my hips with a small groan of making the item move. "Sorry, I am back now."

A huff left me as I heard him begin talking and rubbed my face to the bed before gazing off in the room. I could easily get out of the tie, but that would probably upset Marco, so I said in my position. Hearing him talk made me frown more as he didn't sound close to being finished now. Then I jerked as I felt vibrations assaulting inside of my body. Jolting, I soon shoved my face into mattress with a moan as toes dug into the bed. Pleasure spiked along my spine in delight as I gripped onto the tie and was shifting hips as it felt good.

Then they stopped and I swallowed whilst viewing over in surprise. He merely showed the remote to the side of his laptop and I could see his smirk. A short whine left me as he was going to torture me like nothing was happening, that's mean… and exciting. Gah, why does he have such great ideas when I try to be the adventurous one for once? Of course, not that I mind since he sent another wave through my body.

A moan left me, muffled by the bed as I couldn't move legs anywhere, being trapped in my underwear still. The spikes of pleasure tingled up my spine as I felt myself begin to pant and rock hips more. It felt good, that thrumming of delight in my system as the vibrations continued. It was also torturous as I couldn't move much and I gripped the tie more. Moans spilled from lips as my erection was twitching in glee of the swirling need in me.

"A-mmff!" The sudden jolt of a higher intensity had me shove my face to the mattress with trembles. Toes pressed to the bed as I jerked at the assault and was trying to get myself in control. Whimpers and moans were leaving me into the mattress to stay quiet, but I couldn't help my body shifting around. I couldn't exactly make up my mind if I wanted more or for it to lay off since I wanted Marco before I came. "M-Marco…" I practically whimpered his name as he lowered the intensity and I gasped in breaths, but still groaned at the low vibrations.

"Very well, I need to go as well." I heard the words clearly and shifted to look over as he soon ended the call and closed his laptop.

The headset was unplugged and to the side before he looked to me with a smirk. I shivered at the gaze as he began moving over to me after setting his glasses down and I groaned lowly. He shifted behind me with a hand rubbing to a butt cheek and I whined lightly as the vibrations continued to linger. The hand was away as I heard him shifting and hoped clothes were coming off. A sudden smack made me cry out with a low moan as he rubbed tenderly to the spot; that being for the one he started to count earlier.

"Good boy for not moving…" He mentioned whilst rubbing and he increased the intensity again. Moans flowed from my mouth as I trembled in delight and shifted legs together as I tried not to let that boil get to me.

"M-Marco~!" I moaned out and you could hear the beg in my tone as he soon clicked it off. Gasps left me as he hummed out and I swallowed thickly. "I want you, hah…" I whined with a wiggle and he chortled lightly with fingers lining up a thigh slowly.

"Be more specific, little one." He spoke out and I groaned in slight embarrassment.

"I w-want you in me, please…" I moaned lowly as fingers drew closer to the toy and then he pulled away, but I heard a soft snap.

"Do you want my cock inside of you, Ace?" A groan left me at the way he spoke so deeply and I gasped as the toy slowly slid out.

"Y-yes," I spoke out as I gripped the tie and it was fully out.

"Yes, what?" Lips trembled as I swallowed the lump in my throat before panting out more.

"I want y-your cock inside of me, Marco." It wasn't very loud as I could feel myself being flushed by that alone—never mind being all worked up—that was probably what made me brighten right up. A groan left him as he soon shifted on the bed and I arched as he began sliding into me. "O-Ohh~, Marco! A-Aah!" I moaned out with eyes closed and noticed that I was drooling, not really sure on when or how long, but I was resting my chin to the bed where a wet spot was.

"Such a good job," the praise was there and hands rubbed my lower back. "I love you, Ace." That made my heart soar as I practically mewled and then gasped as he began rocking into me. "Just let me take care of you now." Moans sputtered from me as he found my prostate and was thrusting into that spot roughly. My legs spread as much as they could with my underwear and I let my face rest sideways into the bed as he continued to rock in me.

"Aahh, haa!" I cried out as it felt good and one hand gripped mine as I trembled with eyes squeezed shut. Feeling the boiling at the highest had me wiggle a little as I moaned in delight and let it snap. I came with a cry of relief and he continued to ride in me at a milder pace before pressing to grind. Small groans left me at the pressure, but didn't complain as I want him to for a second time. Fingers loosened the tie so I could have my hands back and he stopped to lean over and kiss along my back.

"Are you sore anywhere, yoi?" The question was whispered on my back as I shifted hands to rest by my head and he slipped out of me, but I knew he was still hard.

"No," I mention as I was getting my breathing in check and he moved hands down my thighs to soon help pull off underwear fully.

"Good, I'm not through with you." A groan of anticipation left me as he chuckled and moved to flip me over. Lips hovered mine and we kissed slowly as he smirked with blue eyes gleaming to me. "I love you so much." I moaned lightly with arms around his neck and I brought him close with lips hovering and as I spoke they fluttered against his.

"I love you, too, Marco."

-o-o-o-o-

Our life was practically normal and I showed a bit when in public, but never too much to have people stare. Thatch would spar with me on occasion, cursing with laughter when I would beat him, but he expected it mostly. Izo would sometimes watch to comment on our fighting, which had me realize on how they improved themselves. Jozu sometimes fought with me, but I could tell he was a bit surprised by my quick movements and I commented he should fight Luffy since he is basically a ball of rubber. Which, at this point, Thatch agreed with laughter as he enjoyed fighting against my brother.

Then I got to hear the run-on joke about Thatch's name, including too many shots and him being too drunk to correct anyone. He is known as the Womanizer because he was flirting with a bunch of women and someone stated that, so he would boast he should have it as a nickname. That of course, was something to come to bite him in the butt later and couldn't back out. The women got a kick out of it, anyways, and it sometimes attracted some ladies to the fights to see him. So, sometimes the owners didn't mind and got some assistance to be sign holders of the next fight. That was interesting to see on following occasions and I started showing up to their club to fight.

People were virtually shitting bricks when I started showing up more, rumors spreading that I was a part of the family. Then things were more spreading out how the top fighters were type of 'allies' and had each other's backs, which was basically true. Pops considered us three family and was our speed dial if trouble came up. We have had a few fighters approach when I am standing with Marco and sneer a comment our way, which usually makes me shove the fighter towards the ring to show who was the weak one. It fundamentally ended with me wiping the floor with them. Though, that usually drives some away except the really stupid or newer ones.

I fought that night like usual, being the new acclaimed Whitebeard fighter and I was fine with it. Slowly, Luffy was taking over the other place for the Strawhats they started referring to them after my baby brother, and Sabo was getting out of fighting. It wasn't that he didn't enjoy it, but he had other things important to him that I understood since Marco is mostly spectating because of his work and everything. Though, I have a feeling part of Sabo's is also the fact of Koala getting a bit worried over him, which was funny seeing him still trying to deny that they are going on dates.

'We're just hanging out' my ass.

This night of fights was just a way of showing my official placing and I kept my name, obviously. I just got done with my third fight and grabbed a drink at the bar. Marco was talking to Thatch about a major fight he had coming up, his brother always liked having a pep talk because it got him pumped for his fight. Excitement thrummed me as I drank my water and was tapping a bare foot back since I preferred to fight like this. It was cooler outside, but I also got hot doing the fights so I knew to just bring clothes with me. Blenheim is the owner of the place and was attending the bar that I was at, but he was busy cleaning a spot that a fighter had just been with probably his sweaty arm on the counter.

"Oi, boy," my eyebrow twitched at the way I was being addressed and ignored the man coming over. "Oi, I'm talking to you, FireFist." That had me look over with a look and raised eyebrows.

"Now you are addressing me properly, fucktard." I mention blatantly and took a drink as he strolled up.

"Nah, I should call you bitch then to address someone like you." This scowl was on me as I glared to him and this look was there of a snarky grin. "I overheard you, bitch. Getting called a good boy and shit like that from your pimp." That had me stare in slight surprise on when he had heard anything and the way he called Marco.

"Well, fuck, didn't realize that you wanted to be called princess, I'll make sure to do that since you seem so interested." A blanching look was there of distaste before he seemed to change tactics as eyes trailed me.

"I bet you cry like a bitch in bed, too, is that what gets him off? A bitch?"

"Hey now, are you trying to squeeze in our nest?" I questioned and that leer smile made my insides curl in disgust.

"You get off to that kind of shit, huh? Is that why you love fights, you whore?" That made my lip curl in distaste as he was right before me that I could smell his nasty breath.

"Like any whore would sleep with your nasty ass." A startled noise left me as a hand quickly hit and grabbed my junk. I punched him out of reflex, making him stumble away and I was so fucking glad I had a cup on or that would have hurt a lot worse. "Keep your fucking hands off, prick!" I shouted whilst having an arm lower as my hips were back in case for some crazy reason he tried again. He was still standing and rubbed his cheek with that disgusting leer.

"What's the matter, slut?" I glared with gritted teeth before I was surprise when he was grasped and head bashed into the counter. Marco was holding him in place and I could see the face of feral hatred.

"Don't you ever talk about him like that, got me?" The words seethed and people had turned attention at what was happening, not being a big deal since the next fight hadn't started yet. The guy was groaning and Marco had smashed his head into the counter again with a tense stance. "Got me?"

"Yes, sir!" That had him throw the guy to the ground and Jozu came over with arms crossed to escort him out.

People were staring in slight confusion and a glance towards me as I had relaxed my stance before they all tensed whilst turning away. My lover was glaring their direction before moving over to me and motioned for the room behind the bar. We moved to into the room where the swinging door started to slow behind us and hands were soon gripping to my butt cheeks. A low moan left me as I was held to a body and thinking about it made me grin.

This giggle left me, letting the switch flip as I lined hands over his chest, that annoying turtleneck shirt in the way. Though, it looked really good on him and I enjoyed wiggling against him happily. Marco knew I could defend myself, let's me do it all the time, but this time had been different. That man stepped over boundaries and that made my lover extremely unhappy about what happened even without probably realizing where exactly.

"Do you know where?" I asked curiously and he sighed out whilst lips began kissing to my cheek.

"Doesn't matter." As I thought, and it only made me chuckle more as I put hands behind his head.

"Then I should probably not tell you." I comment with a smile up at him and that had him fester with hands gripping.

"Where, yoi?" A chuckle left me as I got a good grip around his neck before shifting to rock hips against him. That made him flicker a glare to the door and I laughed lightly before pulling him down to give chaste kisses to his chin, stubble scratching against my lips. "Pops is going to have to bail me."

"Marco~!" I whined in complaints and he chortled whilst giving me kisses with fingers rubbing. "Mh, I'm wearing a cup anyways so he didn't get to feel anything important."

"That's beside the point." He growled lightly whilst I pulled him to give more kisses as I smiled happily.

"I love you, Marco." A look was there, flickering his mood and gave kisses though his brow was still furrowing. "Anyways, I have nothing to worry about with you around." That seemed to tip him to showing pride in himself and let hands move to around my waist to hold onto me.

"I love you, Ace. And I will always be there to beat the hell out of anyone who touches my li'l." A giggle rolled out of me as I grasped a hold with my face burying into his neck.

"I know!" I told him, making him shift a little in a rock and I knew that made him swell in happiness that I trusted him so much. Which I do; Marco is someone I could fall back and have no worries on if he would catch me or not because I know he would in a heartbeat. Hollers about 'Womanizers' fight was heard and I wiggled lightly to pull back. I gave a big smooch before shifting to the door with a grin to him. "Let's go watch our brother fight!" A grin was there as he soon followed to join and I let myself flicker to show a cocky smirk as I moved towards the fighting ring.

-o-o-o-o-

A laugh left me in sputters and my hand moved to cover my mouth to try and stop it. Light blue eyes looked to me in confusion as the woman across from me was rolling eyes in exasperation. It seems Nami always has to inform the waiter at this fine establishment that she was in a relationship and it was a bit of a shock that it was because of me this time.

"I'm sorry." I comment with a hand waving and my friend looked with eyebrows raised, knowing I wasn't because I looked away to control myself.

"Sanji," she began with a smile to the blonde who looked to her in waiting. "I have already told you, I'm happy with Robin."

"I know, I'm just checking so he keeps it in his pants." A finger pointed to me and that had me look to him in an expression of asking he was serious.

"Dude, I've been in a steady relationship for like four months." I comment with arms crossed and he shrugged.

"You bounced before, I didn't want Nami to be a rebound." Surprise was on me as I couldn't believe he commented that out loud, not usually one to be so blunt.

"Sanji, have you had a cigarette today?" I asked and that had him grit teeth a bit as his thumb rubbed to fingers. A groan soon left him as he ruffled a hand through blonde hairs and Nami sighed out.

"I know you are trying to cut back, but are you even trying the herbal ones that Chopper gave you?" A slight grimace was there from the blonde as he soon pushed to my shoulder and I smiled whilst scooting over in the booth.

"No, it sounds disgusting."

"Dude, cigarettes are gross." I comment and he elbowed me a few times, which made me laugh.

"Sorry, Ace, I'm a bit cranky." I put fingers close together to imply my sarcasm and he rolled eyes whilst I laughed with a pat to his shoulder.

"No worries."

"Plus, I didn't know you settled with someone." A grin was on me at that and I gave a look to him as a prewarning. "Lay it on me."

"Awesome, so I'm seeing Marco." Surprise showed and then it all seemed to click into place.

"Oh, so the club switch?" A nod left me and that made him understand a lot better before looking in questioning. "I didn't know you swung that way."

"I've always swung both, but don't usually boast about it since I hadn't found someone at the time." A hand moved to grab an extra straw on the table and began taking it out of the paper. That's when he began to gnaw on it viciously, making Nami and I chuckle in amusement.

"So, what's up with you two then? Not trying to sound rude, but last I check, you don't like shopping and you don't care for his eating habits." Sanji commented and I looked to Nami to somehow explain without being too straightforward.

"We have common interests, such as being able to complain about our honeys without being worried about what we say." She shrugged in explanation and he nodded in some understanding, that made me grateful. Teeth continued to chew as I could tell his craving was bad and I frowned a bit.

"Dude, have an herbal one and I will pay for Luffy's meal next time. Promise." That had him glance over in surprise at me before slowly pulling his straw away with a look to it.

"Damn, is it that bad?"

"Well, you haven't been too much of a gentleman either, Rina and Bonney asked about you in concern." That had Sanji realize more and he groaned, but I pat to his shoulder with a grin.

"Do you want me to do one with you? I mean they won't hurt me." I offered and he soon shook his head after a second of contemplation.

"No, thanks though. Sorry, guys." We only smiled as he got up before tapping at the table. "Your meal is on me today." A grin was on me as we hadn't got our ticket yet and I drank on my beverage. Sanji left with hopefully an herbal cigarette on his mind and I looked to the woman.

"So, tell me about what happened during the video conference, Robin mentioned Marco seemed a little preoccupied." A grin was on me that someone sort of noticed and Nami smiled really big. "Oh? Do tell~!"

-o-o-o-o-

"But Marco, she totally started it." I whined lowly as we were in his office, stopping in after I had lunch with Izo and had gave a choice word to someone in the hallway.

"She's a business associate of another company." A look was to me in exasperation and I frowned lightly before it flickered as I crossed arms.

"B-but she—!" I started to explain more and got a glare of blue eyes and I frowned more with a breath coming out. "Fine… Sorry…" I whispered lightly, not feeling wrong in this situation since on what she was implying and doing to me, but also knew it was an important thing.

"You shouldn't be apologizing to me." A sigh left me as I soon uncrossed arms and nodded to my lover as he gave a look of approval. "Go."

The finger pointed, wanting me to go do it now before the woman leaves and I whined lightly before moving. By the time I reached the elevator, the blonde-haired woman was walking onto it and I moved to get on as well. Green eyes found me with a smirk of interest and I cleared my throat lightly.

"I apologize for my words and actions, ma'am." I comment politely and I strained to ignore as a finger trailed under my chin.

"I accept your apology; why don't you join me for dinner in my way of showing how everything is better?" A smile was there with a tilt of her head and I swallowed as I knew that look. I wanted to protest, but had a feeling Marco might want me to go through with it just once to make sure everything was settled properly.

"If that's what you want, ma'am."

"Please, call me Domino." A nod left me in understanding as the elevator stopped and she began for it after pulling away. "I expect you at the Baratie at five sharp." A manicured hand waved out as I stayed on the elevator.

"Yes, Domino." I replied politely and a few others got on the elevator. I pushed buttons for everyone and they greeted me in either acknowledgement or only in a slight manner, since most knew I was a 'friend' of Marco's.

Once reaching the floor of his office, I went back in with a pout and he gave a look. It didn't take much for him to know I had apologized and he smiled whilst waving me over. A slight smile was on me as I moved over and enjoyed the hand finding my hip to rub.

"See? It wasn't that bad?" I gave a look and he chuckled in amusement. "Do you want to have your favorite for dinner?"

"Can't." I comment and eyebrows raised since I had only told him moments before we should have dinner. "Domino wanted to show properly that we were fine, so we are having dinner." A look of curiosity was there before he rubbed more with a smile.

"Then I have no choice but to pamper you later for being such a good boy." That made my switch flicker with a flush and he shifted before I was in his lap sideways with a grin.

"I did good?"

"Yes, very, I'm proud of you taking the offer." A wiggle left me as I wrapped arms around his neck and he met me for chaste kisses. "Be on your best behavior later." A finger moved to tap my lips and I grinned with a deep flush. That smirk he had showed promised things and I was very anticipated for them. "Here," he moved the hand and to his drawer to soon pull out a chocolate bar and I practically squealed in delight. I gave a firm kiss before hopping out of his lap with the candy and went to his seating area to munch on it.

"Thank you~!"

-o-o-o-o-

Dressing nicer for the restaurant, I had gone with using one of their lesser cars since driving in an expensive one made me nervous. The weather was finally being too cold for my bike and so I had to make do with walking or taking the one car they had as backup purposes. Pops almost bought me a car, but I absolutely insisted that this was more my style anyways.

After going in and finding her waiting in the foyer part of the place, we were seated by a waiter I sort of knew through Sanji. His name is Gin and he looked in questioning on me being there with Domino since I usually came with one of my friends or Marco in the recent months. No comment was made though as we seated at a table and the woman was fixing her hair lightly. It was in an up-do, making me wonder how freaked out Izo would be with how she did it, and I noticed her black dress slim to her body. No questions, she had a large bust and I wondered what kind of bet Nami would make to guess if she had either a push-up on or had work done.

We had ordered beverages, me going with a water and she had some sweet tea. I felt awkward at this moment and started to make casual talk on how the rest of her day went. It was nerve-wracking more so than when I first went on a date with Marco. This is by far a date, but it still unnerved me that the woman was smirking to me with her body shifting at angles. I wasn't dense, but I also don't like jumping to conclusions too fast on these certain matters. Which is why I apologized in the first place because I thought she had made an erotic comment about me with a hand grazing close to my butt. Maybe it was just a mutter and accidental graze?

If I was correct, though, then the way she showed her breasts more and how she looked at me was a big indication she was flirting with me big time. I made sure to stay neutral and keeping my appearance of being uninterested throughout as we got our meal; I mean I wasn't interested anyways so it wasn't that hard. After we finished eating, she excused to the bathroom and I let out a breath of relief.

"I thought you were with Marco?" I looked to see Sanji standing with a curious look and pouring water in my glass.

"I am, but I agreed to come along since I said something rude and she wanted to show we are on good terms." An eyebrow raised and it was good to see him more relaxed than he was a few days ago.

"You do know she is fawning over you?"

"Oh, good, I'm not delusional." I commented as it was nice to hear someone else notice what is going on. "Luckily, soon I can go home." My voice was lower in tone and he nodded in agreement as Domino soon made it back.

"Would you like anymore, my beautiful lass?" Sanji flirted with every woman in sight, so it was no surprise, but I was disappointed she didn't take the bait.

"No, thank you, monsieur." The reply showed a look of disinterest before they flared to me and that made me shift a little. "We were about to leave." She commented and I let out a small breath of relief.

"Let me get the check; separate?"

"No, together." She mentioned and was smiling as Sanji walked away. "I invited you, of course I will pay."

"Thank you, though you still don't have to." The words left me, not wanting to be indebted to her for any reason. A hand waved out and soon Sanji was over where she handed a card to him.

"Nonsense, little sweetie. I have invited you." I slowly nodded in understanding and took some sips of my water as we waited. Once Sanji was back with the receipt, we began to leave and I was being nice to lead her out. Though, I didn't like that she took hold of my arm and I held back my face since I probably would have grimaced—and that would be rude. So, I sucked it up and walked out with her by opening doors and such.

"Do you want me to walk you to your car?" I asked politely, praying she would say no and be on her way, but she smiled with a look.

"Such a well-mannered boy, of course." A curse left me on the inside as I let her take my arm and she pointed towards to one side of the parking lot, somewhere close to where I parked. She unlocked her car and I moved to open her car door, thankful of Makino drilling in manners in my head when younger. Domino was amused and came up to get in and I noticed the movement, quickly putting my hand up to block the kiss she was going to do to my cheek.

"Um, excuse me, I'm sorry. My lover wouldn't appreciate such things." I made the comment and a hum left her with a head tilt.

"I see, I apologize, my lipstick would have got on you." She mentioned with a couple taps to her chin, showing her glossy lips off. A look was there as she moved close with a wink and I tensed at the grip she just did. "Thanks for having dinner with me, little sweetie." Nerves fluttered in my body as she got in and I carefully closed the door before moving to my car.

Getting in my own vehicle, I sat there for a minute contemplating on if that was harassment or not. It's happened to me before, people always think they need to pay a compliment and before, if I wasn't with anyone, I may have flirted back with a similar action. I was with Marco now, though, and didn't like that someone would do that to me especially after mentioning of a lover. Did that not matter to her? Or did she have that mindset that if a nice-looking woman does it to a male it doesn't matter?

Clearing thoughts, I drove back to the complex and made my way in. It didn't take long to make it to his room, knocking so he could let me in. Most of the time we had it locked up since Izo was still nosey and Thatch had no comprehension sometimes on privacy. Marco opened the door with a smile and I gave him a glare promptly. That surprised him as I moved into the room and began for the bathroom.

"I know she isn't an overbearing individual, what happened?" He asked, following as I was stripping down and tossing clothes at him like they had the plague.

"Don't ever let me go out with her again for any reason." I sneered whilst going into the shower to turn it on, it never took long to heat up.

Soap found me as I just wanted to wash and go snuggle into Theo or something. Confused noises were leaving Marco as he soon moved, maybe to get my comfy clothes, and I got myself clean quickly. Only taking five minutes, I dried off and my lover was holding clothes out for me. I was still frowning as I pulled on underwear and then shorts. Moving out of the bathroom, blue eyes followed in surprise as I went to the bed pulling back the blanket, grabbing Theo and wrapping arms around the bear once I got the blanket on me.

"You're mad at me because you agreed to go with her?" The question came out as I faced away from him and this huff left me.

"I'm mad because I was right and you made me apologize because I was right and made me get into a very awkward situation." I complained and this noise of confusion was there before hearing him shift. The bed moved with him as he came closer and a hand was along my hip going down and I swatted it away. "My ass is especially mad at you." The body shifted and hands began moving me as I was soon resting back into the bear with arms crossed.

"Explain." The simple statement was there with a look of being serious now.

"You want me to now?" I asked as I knew it was all attitude, but I was starting to fully feel angry about him not listening earlier. A look of confusion was there and I frowned deeper. "You sure you don't want me to go apologize again?"

"Ace, you bad mouthed a business woman."

"Do you know why?" I asked with eyebrows raised and he gave this look before seeming to realize what I was getting at. A hand went to his face with an exasperated sigh and shifted to sit on his butt instead of on legs.

"No, yoi."

"Exactly my point." It was guilt showing on him for jumping to conclusions because it was business related and he didn't want anything screwed up. "I had to apologize to someone for lewdly commenting at me and try to feel me up and then went to dinner with them where they thought it was in their right place after stopping them from kissing a cheek about having a lover to squeeze one of my ass cheeks. Do I look like I have a sign on me that says it's okay for strangers to randomly feel me up?!" That had me jabbing a finger angrily into his chest after turning towards him, but only stared to where my finger was and let that switch flicker. "I only did apologize because I know it's important for your business people and stuffs." I mumbled as my jabbing stopped to tug on his shirt a little. This breath left him as he moved to pull on me and I was resting my upper body against him and a hand moved to grip to a butt cheek.

"First off, I'm going to make sure your butt forgets about what happened." A giggle left me hearing that as he kneaded fingers and then a chin pressed to my head to move and look up at him. Lips pressed to mine and I wrapped arms around his neck to enjoy the sensation. "I'm sorry, Ace. I should have asked and found out before putting you in that situation." This breath left me as I moved a bit before pressing him into the bed.

"I am a bit upset still, but I got it out…" I admitted with a grin as I laid on his chest. "Do I get a reward for being polite the whole time? I was very well-mannered!" I told him with a slight pout and he chuckled whilst moving to grab onto me and I was flipped to my back. Lips found my chest and I wiggled a little with a smile as he continued to rub hands along my body.

"Of course, you deserve it all." Hands were under my lower back and going up in a rub. A moan left me as he sucked to my skin along my right pectoral and made sure to nip on my nipple. "You were so good, my little one. I will be doing all of the pleasing tonight." That made me thrum in excitement as I moved hands along his head and moaned lowly.

"I love you, Marco." Blue eyes gleamed up into mine as I smiled to him and he pulled from my nipple to come kiss me firmly.

"I love you, too, Ace. And don't worry…." Lips were back to my chest as he gave a stare of reassurance. "I am going to have a serious talk with Domino tomorrow." A small giggle left me as he was being territorial and I loved it, knowing I could count on him. Lips skimmed down my body and I arched with his movement whilst putting my head back with a groan of anticipation.

I would love to be a fly on the wall for that conversation.

A/N:: I would like to clarify on something, they may seem to say 'I love you' a lot, but please understand that this kind of relationship includes exceptional love. A Little loves being told that, it shows that their Big does and they love to hear it over and over for a type of reassurance. Hope you liked!
