Those Three Words.
"What about your crush?" Kid suddenly murmurs, you sure weren't expecting him to come out with that question, I mean isn't it obvious?!
"You are my crush, you goon! Didn't you see Ace's post on Facebook?" You didn't mean to insult him but my God, he's slow sometimes! You notice the redhead frown but it isn't an angry frown, it's more of a thoughtful one.
"You mean the pictures of Ace cuddling Trafalgar's pervy friend? Or do you mean the cat that got stuck in the freezer?" The male murmurs, his voice laced with uncertainty and his eyes narrowed a little. He clearly doesn't see how either of those things are relevant and he's right not to, because they aren't.
"Cat stuck in a freezer...?" You blurt, your voice riddled with confusion. It's not what you wanted to say, you wanted to mention the video but...cat in the freezer? Even you hadn't heard about that!
Does Ace even have a cat?
"Yeah, some stupid cat was messing around in a freezer and it's paws got frozen to the ice so they had to cut around it's feet to take the ice out and wait for it to mel--This is off-topic." Yes, it really is. Your heart flutters when Kid's chuckle follows his comment.
For a gang leader, he has one hell of a sweet laugh.
Although, most people say it's sinister...perhaps it's just sweet for you. "Anyway...what I meant to say," You begin, your voice causing Kid's laughter to fall silent while he allows you to finish. You struggle to hold eye contact with him, your heart switching into overdrive. Just say it and be done with it! "I have a...mad little crush on you~"
Yes, song lyrics...because that is always a wise idea!
A small smile embeds itself into Kid's features, it almost looks sweet and innocent. His golden eyes locking with your orbs as his mouth falls open to speak but the words themselves stun you completely. "Let's have a baby."
What?
It's only when Kid's expression falls completely puzzled you realize that it wasn't even his voice, the redhead's bewildered eyes glancing just past your face. Peaking over your shoulder, you see a young couple now coming out of their house.
The man harboring a goofy grin and the woman blushing like crazy. "We could get married, have a baby~ A puppy~" The woman's blush deepening with each word the man speaks. A small snicker leaving your lips when you hear Kid groan.
"Cute, right~?" You tease quietly, your gaze casting back to Kid. You have to bite on your bottom lip to stop yourself from laughing when you see the look on his face, he looks as if he just caught his parents having sex or something.
"It's...sappy." You knew he'd say something like that and it just makes it all the more fun for you, a taunting smirk gracing your lips as you place your hands on your hips confidently. You just can't help it, messing with Kid is so fun! And you're probably the one person who gets away with it!
Who wouldn't take an advantage of that?!
"Aw, I like sappy~ If my crush said something sappy to me, I'd be swooned~" It takes all your will power to contain your cackle as Kid's face drops, his eyes morphing into a look of complete disdain.
"Sappy..." Kid sighs under his breath, beads of sweat already gathering across his face as his eyes lock with yours once again. You notice his Adam's apple shift as he swallows thickly. "I-I...I think you're truly the most beautiful thing I've ever seen." He blurts almost too fast for you to comprehend.
Wait, did Eustass Kid just stutter?!
Your face acting on it's own as a huge grin graces your features, your eyes surely resembling stars right now. Your whole body feeling strangely warm and the pounding in your chest is certainly not going to ease up anytime soon.
"What...?" Kid grunts, his face almost as red as his hair and a barely visible pout tainting his almost stoic face. "I'm not good with this sappy shit, okay. I tried!" And that triggers it, a slightly sadistic giggle leaving your lips at the nervous male.
Your body acting out of pure impulse as you wrap your arms around his neck, tugging him down slightly so that your face is only mere inches from his. "It's cute, I like it~" Of course, it's at this moment you realize just how close you are to him, his warm breath fanning your face and you can even smell a bit of mint.
He must have brushed his teeth before coming out or he's chewing gum.
Your first instinct is to pull away but your body is completely frozen in place, your face burning to what must be the heat of the bloody sun. Kid's gaze drifting from your eyes to your lips as his arms twine around your waist.
OH MY GOD, HE'S HOLDING ME! OH MY GOD. RELAX, JUST...I CAN'T FUCKING RELAX!
"S'pose I should allow you to indulge in some more sappiness...since you've done me a few favors yourself, huh?" Kid murmurs with a small smirk spreading across his lips, the redhead lowering himself slightly so that his lips are ghosting over yours, your heart just about doing backflips inside your chest. "I lo--"
His sentence being interrupted once again by a small tune and the words 'I am a lion and I want to be free, do you see a lion when you look inside of me?' His expression darkening as one of his arms releases your waist, the handsome man plucking his phone from his coat pocket and tapping the screen.
It surprises you when he slips the now-silent phone back into his pocket, his arm returning to your waist. He hung up on them? "How annoying." He grumbles with a very faint snicker in his tone, his nose gently brushing against yours as his voice lowers. "All I wanna do is tell my long-time crush that I love her, and the world just throws interruptions at me."
A small chuckle uncontrollably leaving your throat at his comment before you pull him in, your lips only planting a soft peck on his. "How rude the world is~" Your heart is essentially melting at the mere expression on Kid's face, he looks so smitten.
The guy is a gang leader, he could kill someone with a glare and yet, he looks so innocent in this moment. As handsome as ever though, a deadly sexy but genuine smile finding it's way to his lips as one of his hands move up from your waistline, brushing some hair from your face.
"It is fucking rude. If it wasn't your home, I'd probably hate it." The redhead purrs before his lips finally connect with yours, the sensation feels like being struck by lightening. His kiss is somewhat rough but filled with adoration causing you to instantly meld into the passion, you're like putty in his hands.
You can just feel yourself smiling into the kiss but it's okay, because you can also feel his smile too. His tongue running across your lip as to ask for permission and hell yes, without hesitation you allow him to slip his tongue into your mouth, he tastes slightly minty but it's not at all overpowering.
Your legs slowly turning to jelly during your make out session, your fingers tangling themselves in his red hair and your body being pulled flush against his. You feel one of his hands holding the back of your head while the other clings to your waist, as if you'd disappear if he dares to let go of you.
Who would have thought a thug can be so fucking passionate, right?
The sound of somebody clearing their throat from behind you causes the moment to end, Kid breaking the kiss and taking a look at the interruption with a fiery glare in his eyes. You're about to peak over your shoulder at the person since you can't necessarily turn around, courtesy of Kid's arm still being clamped around your waist.
Although, you needn't bother when you hear the redhead speak. "The fuck do you want, Trafalgar?" Of course, Law just has to interrupt. You hear the tattooed male scoff from behind you, the sound only causing you to pout as you keep your focus rested on Kid's gorgeous and slightly blushing face.
"To go to work without seeing a sight that could make me throw up my breakfast."
At least he didn't say "Bad taste" this time.
"Then walk down another street, you damn creep!"
"Or you could just stick to eating each other's faces in your own homes, Eustass-ya?"
Law...why do you do this?
