"So, don´t you think he´s too young for you?" Izou asked, taking another sip from the bottle and looking Marco straight in the face.

"Of course he is too young for me. But I am a pirate, don´t come with the moral aspect, that doesn´t work on me, yoi." Marco replied smirking, his gaze on Ace, who just joined the crew days ago, and was currently drinking with the others. The younger laughed and rubbed the back of his head, slightly turning his head and meeting Marco´s gaze, smiling back at the blonde.

They ended up later, in the hallway, in front of Marco´s room, Ace pressed against the door, Marco leaned in to kiss him, the very first time. He wasn´t afraid that the younger would pull back, he knew, felt, that they were supposed to be, all of his mind was on the soft lips on his own, because Ace didn´t pull back, gave into the kiss and opened his mouth to invite him in. He tangled his hands in the raven´s hair, his hands at the back of the other´s head and pulled him closer into the kiss, tasting his sweet mouth.

"Do you want to come inside with me, yoi?" Marco asked as they parted, both panting. Grey eyes locked with his.

"Yes..."

The raven followed Marco into his room, watching as the blonde let his shirt fall from his shoulders, revealing his muscular back, stretching. He smirked at the sight, although slightly blushing at the blondes perfect view and his show-off stretching, just for him.

Marco turned around with a smile on his face. He crossed the small distance between them, holding him close, leaning in to kiss him, pushing the younger softly forward, leading him towards the bed. Suddenly he felt Ace resisting and softly pushing him away, breaking the kiss.

"Wait...! This is...my...well, uhm, kinda first time...and..." Ace stuttered.

"You are a virgin, yoi?" Marco raised an eyebrow at that.

"I am not a virgin. I slept only with girls and...you are the first man I want to sleep with, so..."

"Ace."

"...and I really think want to sleep with you, but since..."

"Ace!"

"...I am pretty sure, you want me to bottom right? And I..."

"Ace! Yoi!"

The raven looked up at him, blushing even more, his eyes worried. The blonde smiled at that, his hands automatically raising, to cup the youngers cheeks in his hands, his thumbs trailing over the freckles and his lips. They stood there, close, Marco caressing his face.

"Ace?" he asked after a short while, his voice low.

"Yes?"

"Let´s take it slow, yoi." he whispered, leaning in once again. "You tell me when you are ready, and I promise you, I won´t do anything you are not ready for, yoi."

Marco could nearly feel the youngers relieve, as said one started to kiss him again, this time way more slow, gentle, and he was glad to go with it.

The next morning Marco untangled the raven´s limbs from his own body and bent over to grab his shirt from the floor. He leaned back, smiling, letting his fingers run through raven hair, and kissing Ace softly at the freckled cheeks.

They fell asleep after kissing and caressing each other, but nothing more, both even wore their pants, although Marco needed to admit, at least his were really tight that night.

He sighed, smiling, then got up and leaving the room, quietly closing the door behind him, yawning. And there was standing just one small problem, that made his mood a whole lot worse.

Thatch. Damn it.

"So...did you fuck him?" Thatch asked, going after Marco who just chose to ignore the man with the pompadour. "Because if you did, then let me say it couldn´t be very good, right? Because we literally heard nothing. Or is Ace not a vocal type of guy?"

"Fuck off, Thatch, yoi."

"What´s the matter old man, couldn´t get hard? I bet the problem isn´t Ace, he sure got some experience, I mean, look at him, but you-"

"Shut it, yoi." Marco replied again, feeling really pissed by now and he really started to hope that Ace was worth it, to handle some of that teasing, but the next moment he felt bad for the thought alone. Ace was worth it. He knew.

He shifted in his phoenix-form, letting Thatch behind and lifting himself up in the air. Freedom.

And away from Thatch.

How the blonde was able to stay away from the fourth division commander the whole day, he couldn´t say, but he somehow did. It was late evening, as they all sat together, drinking and he smiled as Ace sat down next to him, so close, their legs touched.

"So...you sure about...us?" Ace finally broke their silence, he looked down at the bottle in his hands, avoiding eye contact.

"I´ve already talked to Pops. And yes, I am sure, yoi." the older replied, taking the bottle from the youngers hands and taking a big sip.

"And with the waiting thing...?"

"Ace." he whispered, a finger under the others chin, he lifted his head up, to lock eyes with the raven, grey met blue. "I told you, you are worth the wait. Relax. We have all the time in the world. I fell for you the moment you set foot on this ship, yoi."

Ace wanted to say something but then a loud voice was heard. "Let´s play truth or dare!"

Oh god, no.

Marco sighed as Ace cheered with the others and he raised an eyebrow at a very drunk Thatch, who was coming closer, a bottle in his hands.

"Alright, so, I´ll start." Thatch stated, as they all sat in a circle around that stupid bottle. Marco already regretted being here, but he didn´t want the other´s to embarrass Ace more than necessary, after all, the teen was a bit shy when it came to the whole prospect of being together with him. He told Oyaji, but not anyone of their crew members yet.

Thatch spun the bottle and – oh wonder – it pointed right at Ace. Fuck.

"So Ace...truth or dare?"

"Truth." Sometimes Marco wondered if the brat sitting right next to him, had a feeling for what was going on. Apparently not.

"Alright. Let´s say, tomorrow you must marry a person from this crew, who would it be?" Marco raised an eyebrow at that. What was he thinking?

"That´s easy. I would marry Marco." Ace said, without hesitating even a moment, giving his blonde a sheepish smile. And Marco actually blushed. Damn, that kid really got him.

The play went on and on, Marco wondered at every question and every task, when Thatch would come to the point. The bottle spun, and pointed right at Ace, again.

"So Ace," Thatch said. "Have you ever had sex with a person the same sex as you?"

"Thatch..." Marco said, warningly, nearly growling at the brunette. Ace was blushing madly next to him.

"Haha, I knew it! That´s why you two were so quiet last night. You are a virgin!"

"Thatch!" Marco said again, louder this time. Ace didn´t even try to answer, he wasn´t sure what was going on between those two.

"Ace, you don´t need to answer this, yoi."

"Marco, aren´t you a bit overprotective over your little boyfriends virgin ass?" the man with the pompadour said, and that was when Marco saw red. He got up, shifting in his phoenix form, his talons grabbing Thatches shoulders, lifting him in the air, and with a loud splash, he threw him in the ocean.

"Has anyone a question about me or Ace, that you really need an answer to?" he said after turning back, glancing around his crew members.

Everyone shook their heads the same time, the whole ship was quiet, watching Marcos outburst. Damn, what did that brat do with him?

"Come with me, yoi." he murmured, pulling Ace on his feet and dragging the younger with him, he then turned back to Namur. "Maybe you could get him out, yoi?"

Neither of them said a word, as they went back to his room. He opened the door and waited for Ace to enter, letting himself lean his back at the door, after locking it. Sighing, he closed his eyes. As he opened them, he looked straight in the younger´s grey ones.

"Marco..." Ace whispered, his fingers playing with the hem of his shirt, then slowly wandering over the tattoo on his chest.

"Ace..." The blondes voice was raw. As an answer, the second division commander leaned in to kiss him, slowly at first, but more passionate, more rough after a short amount of time, their tongues fought a battle of dominance, that Marco won, of course. The raven moaned into the kiss, his hands trailing over the blondes body, he pushed his shirt off his shoulders, removing the belt, opening the blue sash and letting it fall on the floor.

"Ace...wait...I..." Marco started, but a pair of hungry lips shut him successfully up, he groaned into the kiss, caressing the raven´s chest, his fingertips gently trailing over a hard, erect nipple as Ace used the chance to brush over the older´s clothed arousal. Both moaned at the same time, breaking their kiss in need for air, but fuck, wasn´t air totally overrated?

"Marco..." the younger brought out, panting.

"I want you...to be my first." Marcos eyes widened, he never heard the youngers voice that seductive.

"I want you to show me..." he whispered, pressing his frame against the other´s, earning a groan from the blonde.

"I want you to teach me..." Marco seriously asked himself, how long his self control was willing to stay put.

"I want you to take me..." And there was his self control, going over board. Bye.

With a groan, Ace found himself pressed against the older, as the blonde lifted him easily, his hands on the younger´s butt, said one´s legs around the older´s hips. He carried him over to the bed, slowly putting him on it, hovering over his younger lover, their lips connected.

"You are going to be the death of me, yoi." he whispered, rubbing their crotches together, watching how the younger shivered under him. He kissed his way from Ace´s lips over his neck, down to his collarbone and left a mark there. Trailing more and more kisses southwards, he ended at the fly of the younger´s shorts, and after a questioning look, if Ace was okay with this, he opened them, groaning as the youngers already leaking cock sprang free.

Damn it. The brat wore no underwear.

Making eye contact, he was leaning down, giving the throbbing arousal under him a lick from the base to the tip, being rewarded with a loud moan from the younger. Ace´s fingers clenched into his hair, as he took him in his mouth, sucking hard, never breaking their gaze.

"Marco...stop...ple-...ase...I´m close...I-" But he didn´t stop, he took him all the way in, drinking in the sight of Ace, as the young commander lifted himself on his elbows to get a better look, his cheeks flushed, his legs parted, an amazed look on his face. Marco repeated the motion, finally all the years of practicing paid off, and the younger came inside his mouth with a groan, his limbs shaking from sheer pleasure.

With a smirk, he came back up to kiss Ace, letting him taste himself. Marco wrapped his arms around him, holding him close and waiting, until the raven was down from his high.

"Marco...?" Ace´s voice was sleepy already. "Can you teach me that? I want to take you as deep." Oh god, that damned brat.

"Sure, yoi. But not tonight."

"Why?"

"We are taking it slow, remember, yoi?"

Ace lifted himself up, crawling over the blonde, straddling him.

"What if I don´t want to wait?" he whispered against the older´s lips, his hands busy opening Marco´s pants. All the phoenix could do, was to moan and let Ace have his way with him, he lost it too long ago.

There may be a second part, depends on how much you beg :P
After all, I need a place to put all the smut^^
