This man that was standing next to you wasn't like the others.

There was something special about him in many ways.

You didn't know how a man you just met could have such an affect on you.

But this is Portgas D Ace for you. He will make any woman fall at his feet. Because of his looks? His personality? Who knew... All that you were aware of is that you had an interest on him.

Maybe it was his looks, maybe his personality, maybe it was his voice, only god knows what it was, but whatever it was, you knew that you have developed a little crush on this pirate, and he was in this bar only for ten minutes.

"Ehh? Is this love I see?" Reiko whispered in your ear.

"W-what are you talking about! Don't be stupid!" You said while blushing.

Reiko just giggled and shook her head.

"Whatever you say. But I can see it in your eyes. You like him." Reiko said sowly as she wimped the counter.

"Since whem did you woke up anyway? As I recall, you're the one that fainted when she touched one of them."

"S-shut up! I went through a lot of emotion!" Reiko said while trying to hide herself from embarrassment.

You only laughed at her and turned your head back to Ace.

God damn it! Stop looking at him!

Reiko walked towards Marco and Ace's table.

What the hell is she doing?

She grabed a chair and sat down at their table.

"So, like, you're pirates correct?" Reiko asked.

"Haha, you couldn't be more right." Marco replied.

"Whitebeard is the most powerful pirate in the world, right? So then that means you guys had a lot of adventures being part of his crew! Care to tell me a tale?" Reiko asked excited.

Marco and Ace only laughed but then agreed to tell her a few stories.

You must admit, the stories were pretty interesting. Hard to believe, but then again, they were the most powerful, so they had no reason to lie.

"And after we defeated the marine ships, out of the sudden a sea king appeared out of no where!" Marco said.

You rolled your eyes and continued on cleaning the glasses.

"You don't seem so impressed by our stories." Ace suddenly said as he sat on a chair in front of you.

"It's not that I'm not impressed, it's just that I don't care." You said as you turned back your attention towards the dishes.

"You'd care if you'd become a pirate."

You raised an eyebrow and turned your attention back to him.

"I don't want to become a pirate."

Ace only chuckled at your statement.

"You don't want to leave this place?"

"Nope. I never had and I never will." You said while crossing your arms.

"You're kidding. You've never leaved this place before?"

"Nope..."

"That's crazy! I couldn't spend that much time in one place."

"That's the difference between you and me, Ace. The sea calls for you, not for me." You said it a little bit loud, and everyone heard you.
