âË⥠â Portgas D Ace
a/n: hey guys... i've been dead for so long. sorry about that ( âąÌÌŻ â âąÌÌŻ) take this short silly fluffy ace x reader drabble, hopefully it's good enough to compensate for my absence.
summary: you accidentally drool on ace while napping with him. he reacts in the most ace way possible.
The sea breeze was warm, and the sun was just beginning to set, casting a golden hue across the deck of the Moby Dick. You were laying with Ace in a hammock, nestled comfortably against his bare chest, your body tucked under his arm as the two of you relaxed under the warm sun. His heartbeat was steady, his warmth intoxicating, and before you knew it, your eyelids had begun to flutter closed. "Comfortable?" He murmured with a lopsided grin, his fingers lazily brushing through your hair. "Mhm," You mumbled sleepily, eyes already closed as you cuddled more into him. You didn't mean to fall asleep. And you definitely didn't mean to drool. But when you finally blinked awake, stretching with a soft, content sigh, something felt... off. Your cheek was damp. Ace's chest was sticky, and when you looked down- "Oh my god," Your heart plummeted. There it was. A small but unmistakable drool spot, right over his pec. You immediately recoiled off him like you had touched burning hot iron, slapping a hand over your mouth. "I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to- I didn't even notice!" You shrieked, mortified beyond relief, your face blazing red. "I'll- I'll clean it! I'll get a towel- I'll just jump in the sea actually, I can't recover from this-" But Ace, who's been awake for who knows how long, just laughed.
"Pfft! Is that what you're freaking out about?" He wheezed. You were sure he'd be doubled down on the floor laughing if he wasn't trapped under you in the moment. He grinned from ear to ear, "Babe, you drooled on me, not stabbed me." You pouted miserably, hiding your face against his shoulder, which only made him laugh harder. "Ace! That's so gross! I can't believe you just let me lay on you like that and just- let me slobber all over you!" "First of all," he grins, wrapping his arms around you, "It's not gross. Second, I've literally had people bleed on me from fights- a little drool from my adorable girlfriend is nothing." "Don't say it like thattttt," you whined, voice mumbled into his skin. You were practically melting in embarrassment. "Aww, come on," He cooed teasingly, grabbing you by the shoulders and gently pushing you back, before booping you on the nose. "It's kinda cute. Like.. you love me so much your body just couldn't help but leak a little while cuddling me." You gasped, smacking his chest lightly, "Ace!!!" He somehow started laughing even harder than before, holding his stomach as he burst out with laughter. "Okay, okay! I'm sorry! But seriously, don't be embarrassed, alright? I loved it. You were so relaxed and warm and happy, how could I get mad at that?" He said wrapping his arms around you once more, playfully rocking you back and forth with his body. You peeked up at him, squinting your eyes at him, "Even if I let my DNA all over your chest?" "I'm gonna pretend you didn't phrase it like that," He grinned, "But yes. Even then."
You let out a whiny sound, hiding your face against him again as he just nuzzled your temple with his nose. "Next time," you mumbled, "I'm drooling on your face. Then we'll see how cute you think it is." He just continued smiling, "Deal. As long as it means I get to cuddle with you."
