Since I have nothing better to do and am in utter boredom I thought I’d do a bit of writing. Get this out of my head.

He remembered it starting out as a game. A challenging game. One that could end up with him living another joyous day or six-feet under...something.

 

Every little push made him closer to the peak.

 

Every strategically placed finger pushing his goal forward.

 

He could feel it. He was getting closer.

 

Ace had everything planned. All he needed to do was get to the ledge. He smirked keeping quiet concentrating on his goal. His eyes traveled from under his “newly acquired hat” along the table and up to peer at the marine sitting in his chair staring out at the diminishing crowd. Biting his tongue Ace inched a bit further.

 

Almost there…another push and he would get it.

 

A finger paused in its movement seeing the marine shift, smoke sweeping off his shoulders.

 

One more push and…

 

The glass fell off the side of the bar landing perfectly in Smoker’s lap causing him to jump out of his seat. 

Bulls-eye! Now for phase two.

 

“Oh my god, sir! I’m so sorry! I never meant to spill that on you! Here let me clean that up!” Ace said jumping up (eagerly) from his seat in his disguise of a long black jacket, and reached over to clean up the mess on Smoker when a leather-clad hand grab his wrist pulling it close tightly.

 

Ace looked up and watched Smoker’s glare deepen at his recognition of Ace.

 

“Evening taisa. You seem tense tonight? Pants too tight maybe?” Ace said quietly grinning foolishly up at Smoker.

 

“Fuck, Portgas. I don’t even want an explanation.” Smoker grounded out furiously, grabbing Portgas by the neck roughly, pushing him out of the bar.

 

Ace sighed, pouting.

 

Edge of the bed tonight for him it seemed.

lol, oh Ace. The amount of trouble you get yourself into...

I was slightly confused by Smoker's last line though, is it supposed to imply that he's too angry for an explanation and Ace is in trouble, or he doesn't care about an explaination 'cause he just wants to drag his little pirate into bed?

I was confused too, till I went back and read it. I guess I accidently deleted the word 'furiously' when I was proofing it. LoL. Thanks though. Glad you like it. Ace is quite a handful..lol

Poor Ace...XD (I wonder if it's just me, my mind totally went the wrong way while reading the first part :P)
