Looking For A Modern Au, With Lots Of Bickering, Undeniable Sexual Tension And With Some Tasty Age Difference

Looking for a modern au, with lots of bickering, undeniable sexual tension and with some tasty age difference sprinkled on top? Read A Bokeh of Perennials tonight

what about a mob batfam! au?

Bruce: The big Boss

Dick: The underboss of drugs

Jason: the sibling that ran away and is working to take them down (he’s going to get kidnapped back tbh)

Cass: enforcer

Tim: The right hand

Duke: underboss of money laundering

Damian: the soon to be left hand

-

how does this become yandere you may be thinking. What if Jason makes a friend and the entire family is suspicious only to realize that you genuinely care about him like they do (just less possessively ofc) and they’re like “if we bring them home then we can get jason too”

(BTW the author hates cops and cops will be portrayed negatively in this story)

UPDATE: There is an actually story for this now! here or if you prefer ao3 here

— SHARING IS CARING

pairings: clarisse la rue x aphrodite!daughter!reader, luke castellan x aphrodite!daughter!reader

summary: the whole camp believes you to be sunshine personified, everyones bestfriend. and being absolutely stunning as well as off limits unless they want your girlfriend breaking every bone in their body. but it seems a certain friend of yours can’t help his feelings for you, and your girlfriend?

warnings: i’ve gone mental, fluff, threatening, violence, protective clarisse, kinda naive reader ngl, luke is lovesick and is confused about his feelings, not proof read

a/n: basically the two of them agreeing to be with you and now you have attack dogs <3

if there was one thing everybody at camp half-blood could agree on, it was that they all loved you. even if they acted differently, the idea of hating you was practically foreign.

for as long as you could remember, even if it’d only been two years, you’d been there, it’d been your home. and for as long as you could remember, you’d been best friends with luke castellan. he was unbelievably helpful when you first arrived, shy and sweet but overtime you opened up to him.

of course you were nice to everybody, but to your friends you were on a whole other level. almost motherly in a sense, always concerned for their well-being, their health and them over all. luke was no exception, if anything, you cared for him the most. but that was before clarisse came along.

even if luke wouldn’t admit it, he liked the attention. for once someone was caring for him, going out of their way to help him. you were always right there when he needed you, and he’d gotten used to being by your side. whether at breakfast in the morning, or by the creek at night the two of you went out of your way to be together.

and over your time together he not only began to feel protective over you but also something else. it creeped up on him, yes, but it wasn’t all that surprising with you being the daughter of aphrodite.

he found himself wondering if you felt the same for him, or if you were indifferent. with developing feelings came changed of attitude, he found himself annoyed. not at you of course, never at you, but at himself. he felt as if he had a real friend, someone he trusted truly yet it was as if his own body was sabotaging him with feelings. he didn’t want it to change, your relationship, not wanting to risk what you had.

but then late at night he’d find himself daydreaming.

holding your hand when walking together, cutting up your pancakes for you, securing your armour himself, sitting closer to you by the campfire, your sweet eyes looking up at him everyday, filled with even more love than usual. maybe even staring down other campers, who for some reason, had the silly thought that they could make a pass at you.

he’d overheard one of the new girls talking about her own crush on a girl. luke hadn’t meant to, of course, but he was currently sitting on the shore, cleaning off his muddy helmet. she rambled on about the girl she liked, how she walked and talked, how she smiled, how she daydreamed. he felt his throat tighten at the words, it was as if his own crush was being described.

then, she began to talk about a certain daydream she loved having, the fight scenario. in which her crush was training and perhaps losing, the other person being a bit too harsh to the point where she herself had to step in and save her girl.

the idea of being a saviour.

he thought it was stupid, his head was telling him so. but his heart thought differently and he secretly agreed. the idea of saving you, your hands clinging onto his arms for safety, teary eyes and rows of praise and thanks from you. fucks sake, he wanted it.

he wanted you.

but again, your time together, and his plans to be with you were cut short, a certain ares girl beating him to the punch.

the irony was not lost on luke at all. the first time you’d gotten a sliver of niceness from clarisse was when the two of you were walking together from the strawberry fields, having picked a fresh bundle on account of mr d randomly asking for them.

“is there such a thing as strawberry alcohol? is he going to try and have someone make it for him?” you joked as the two of you made your trek to the big house. “maybe he’ll eat them and pretend their alcohol-infused grapes.” luke laughed as your eyebrows scrunched together, “you can do that?”

the two of you continued on, sneaking a few strawberries here and there, of which mr d had sworn he’d be able to tell if any were missing. jake lockly, a new boy, was hot on your tail. he was brash and arrogant, handsome yes, but his personality was more than enough to send a girl running. and he had his eyes set on you, the girl everyone seemed to love. he viewed you as nothing more than a challenge, you viewed him as a creep, “hey y/n. you’re looking good today.” jake whistled, a cat call.

now, you were nice, yes, but gods he made it hard. so you figured the best way to react was to not speak at all, a thumbs up was all the acknowledgment you were willing to give and not what he was willing to receive.

“don’t be like that, i know you wanna talk to me.”

his voice was closer this time having picked up his pace. “it’s obvious she doesn’t want to talk to you, and it’s pathetic that you keep trying.” luke was so close to dropping the basket, and dropping him. “oh yeah, pretty boy? why don’t you go pick some more strawberries.”

you frowned at the comment, pondering the meaning of it, “i picked strawberries, what’s wrong with that?” jake flashed a toothy grin your way, “nothing princess, keep walking, leave this to the men.” his hand grazed your back.

and jake ended up with his face in the floor, courtesy of clarisse, “touch her again and i’ll break every bone in your body.” jake clutched onto his abdomen as clarisse laughed, and so did luke. “at least you didn’t kill him.” luke chuckled, “is he okay?” your shoulders drooped looking at his crumpled body. “who cares? come on mr d is waiting.” luke grabbed your hand and gently led you along, unaware of clarisse following along.

she nabbed a strawberry from your basket as you gasped, “come on!” she didn’t respond, rather grinning before eating it. “how’s your day been?” you smiled at her niceness, “stuck with luke all day.” his eyebrows furrowed, “it’s never a bad day with me. don’t lie.”

and after that you found yourself running into clarisse more often, training together, even if it was more so her beating the shit out of someone, and you watching. you ended up being around her so often that your body quite literally gravitated to her. whether at breakfast or in lessons, the two of you were always hanging out. so it wasn’t a surprise to you when she asked you out, and you were more than happy to agree.

the only people that found it surprising, was every other person around.

obviously, during the early stages, you’d heard the whispers and seen the stares directed your way, but clarisse had shut them down pretty easily. a kid ended up puking into the same toilet bowl they’d been dunked into, a tamer version being someone’s matress torn apart, and a few not super serious injuries.

not life threatening.

but at the end of the day, all you could care about was her. her smile that was only really directed at you, the jewellery she obtained by suspicious circumstances, the sweet words and kisses were all you could ever ask for.

besides her, you also cared about him.

you’d felt as if the two of you had grown apart in the few months you’d been with clarisse, not necessarily either one of your choices, nor faults, but it was upsetting. even when you tried your hardest to seek him out around camp, it seemed he was always surrounded by people, teaching, leading, or just, not there.

you’d known him long enough to know he was evading.

luke hated it, how he felt. the idea of not being able to control himself, and how he acted was unbelievably annoying to him. not having you by his side, all the time, had him realising how often you were around him, he’d grown to rely on you. your presence, support, your face, friendship, gorgeous smile.

yeah, there were a lot of things he liked about you. he thought he only felt that way for you, but the weirdest combination of people seemed to double them. seeing you and clarisse around was common now, but the longing wasn’t.

you’d talked about your strained relationship over a million times to clarisse, and quite frankly she’d had enough, of course she didn’t mind listening to you talk but it was honestly driving her crazy. which is how she’d ended up with luke, in the middle of the night, sitting across from eachother, talking about you.

“she’s my girlfriend.”

“she was my bestfriend first.”

“so why didn’t you make a move?”

“i didn’t want to mess up our friendship. she… she’s my best friend, i didn’t want to drive her away.” clarisse leaned back on the bench, hands supporting her body, “so what now? you continue ignoring y/n, making her absolutely miserable since her bestfriend won’t even talk to her. or you tell her, and you guys aren’t friends anymore.” luke scoffed, “what makes you think we wouldn’t be friends anymore?” clarisse leaned forwards again, “well she wouldn’t have anything to say back to you, she’s with me.”

“well she would’ve been with me if i’d confessed.”

“but you didn’t, who’s fault is that luke? you were too scared to ask her out, and that’s not on me. talk to her, let her know, and we’ll see what happens.” clarisse rose from the table, but a thought in her head pulled her back. she turned back to see luke sitting at the table, even more gorgeous than usual, annoyingly so, the moonlight was a paid actress.

luke looked up and met clarisse’s eye, “what if.. what happens if she has feelings for both of us, now, at the same time?” she grinned, “you’re not an ugly face luke, i wouldn’t mind.” there were few times luke castellan didn’t know what to say, but he sat staring, feeling warmth arise in his face.

maybe they could come to terms with this, work something out amongst all of you. he swore you liked him back, when you were friends and single, and even now that you weren’t. the longing gazed you sent his way, the shy waves, as if on thin glass, testing the waters. why settle for one gorgeous girl, when you could have two?

after all, sharing is caring.

The holidays can be stressful

clarisse la rue x fem!reader

authors note: post 10 pm cry write guys i need to pee, this is a vent fic. also, headcanon that you call clarisse "risse" pronouned Reese bc awwwwwww

summary - you talk about ur body negatively

warnings - talk about body image, over excercizing, not eating/skipping meals, descriptions of body, flashbacks, itty bitty mentions of praying to not greek gods

Thud.

I wasn't enough.

Thwap.

"You need to work out, you're getting too big, and you're only 14," my mother said. I gulped and sat down. "Can we just... pray," I asked. "You need to fix it, usually, girls your age are body conscious.... haven't you seen [friend's name]? That was such a transformation," my dad said.

Thump.

"She lost so much weight, Y/N/N, why don't you do the same? Most people will do things when they see their friends are doing it," my mother said.

Thomp. My mother put her hand on my shoulder-

I went to punch the person who put their hand on me. They caught my hand and I sighed as I saw it was my girlfriend. Clarisse grabbed both of my hands and rubbed my knuckles. "How about we take a break, hm?"

I shook my head. I had to do this.

"Please, no more boxing for the day, you've been overworking yourself," she continued. "Risse, I'm fine.. I've got this," I reassured her.

"Just please, you've been boxing for at least two hours, maybe take a break, okay," she squeezed my hands and walked off. I sighed and went to the archery range.

I grabbed a fairly sized bow and then a set of arrows. I began to shoot around, not necessarily being good at it.

Thwip.

"Y/n, why'd you get new clothes, your old ones were cute," my friends exclaimed. I shrugged. "No need for old clothes..."

Thwap.

"Why don't we all go for a run, some of us need it," my friends said. I looked down and said, "We aren't all wearing tennis shoes."

Shhhk!

They never necessarily spoke much about my own weight, but they all weighed less than me and called themselves fat. They all were skinny or at least average.

"Y/n/n? Please, go rest, I bet you're tired," Clarisse sighed as she noticed me at the archery range. "I'm fine," I defended. "Go get some lunch, or I'll get some for you," she said. I shook my head. "I got it. Thanks, babe," I said.

-

"C'mon, angel, wanna sit on my lap, maybe take a nap," Clarisse asked. I laughed and shook my head, "You rhymed. And, no, it's... alright.."

Clarisse's eyes became sympathetic. "Baby, is it because this," she asked as you placed her hands on what she called my "love handles" and my hip dips. I looked down and shrugged.

"Baby, that isn't a big deal, you're truly beautiful... do- do you not believe me," Clarisse asked. She pulled me onto her lap and I looked down at my hands. "Hey, eyes on me," she said.

My eyes darted back up to hers and she said, "Would you like to know something really cool?" I nodded and she continued, "I think.. no- I know... That even Aphrodite would be jealous of your beauty."

My eyes began to fill with tears as I buried my head into her neck. "I love you, I don't deserve you," I said as tears stained her shirt. "I love you most, and yes you do, okay? You absolutely do, pretty girl," she said gently to me as her hands relaxed on my hips.

She leaned back on the bed and pulled me back so I could lay on top of her. "I doubt you wanna talk about it later... but how about we nap for now? And just... please... never... over exercise or over work yourself, angel," I nodded as she spoke and closed my eyes. There wasn't anything I could have done to have just to have someone as caring and supporting her.

The Thousand Sunny.

The most expensive and hard to reserve restaurant in town was staring you in the face as you stood across the street. It was a beautiful stone building that looked like it was years back in time. Beautiful vines climbing and reaching up the side with roses of all colors in bloom. The entrance was gorgeous iron french doors with stained glass windows, the design a roaring lion.

You couldn’t help but gulp as you gazed at the out of place restaurant in a sea of modern buildings that littered downtown. It was a sight that was for sure, the architecture was stunning no doubt pulling many big spenders inside. You definitely weren’t one of them. Though you finally got the opportunity to step foot inside one of the most high class restaurants your town had to offer.

“Wow, is that it mommy?” Your daughter’s question snapping you out of your daydreaming.

“Yup that’s it.” You smiled brightly down at her making her giggle as she jumped up and down. You let out an airy laugh as you watched her giddy attitude. “Okay but first you have to be on your best behavior. Got it?” You asked causing her to give a nod in understanding.

Giving a thumbs up and a big bright smile she answered you with a simple, “You got it mama!”

~

With a smile you walked to the thin older gentleman who stood stiff as a board at the host podium. Wearing a stern expression he asked simply, ”Reservations?”

“No sir, but I spoke with Sanji earlier today.” You answered hoping the name alone would be enough, and it definitely was.

“You spoke with Mr. Vinsmoke?” He asked in shock. You nodded with a smile and you could tell he was going to speak again but was interrupted by a cheerful, “Hi.”

“Oh H-hello.” He responded to her before looking at you with a raised brow, “Unfortunately he’s not here.”

Shit. I came here too early.

“Sanji said he would buy us ice cream.” Your daughter said and you looked down at her, “It’s okay we can come back another time. I should’ve asked what time was best for him, silly mommy.” You said in a light tone to cheer her up.

“Wait! There he is!” Your daughter squealed with excitement, “Hi Mr. Sanji!”

Are you crazy yelling like that in here?!

You thought with wide eyes before looking in the direction she pointed at. Her giggles of happiness immediately caught not only the blonde’s attention but also everyone else around him. The gorgeous blonde stood with three other well dressed men that almost made your mouth water. All of them turned their gaze to the direction of the noise. You noticed how Sanji gave you the most dashing smile when his eyes met with yours. The people gathered around him instantly looking you up and down as well causing you to blush.

There’s no way they’re all friends. How could that many hot people know each other? It just wasn’t real. But like… what does a woman have to do to get sandwiched between those guys am I right? Cause whatever it is I’m so down! Wait! No I couldn’t possibly that’s so wrong.

You swallowed harshly as all the men stared at you, one licking his lips almost making your knees give out. You hoped they couldn’t tell the dirty things you were thinking right now.

Your heart beating fast in your rib cage as Sanji’s loud voice gave a dramatic, “Well hello ladies.” Long arms outstretched as he walked over to greet the both of you, making the host step back to allow more room. The hotties following close behind to meet you both.

“Hi Mr.Sanji ~! It’s nice to see you again!” Your daughter’s huge smile and kindness making the blonde’s heart swell.

“Oh Princess~ you’re too kind!” He melted as he clasped his hands together in glee, “It’s so good to see you both as well, truly.”

Wow he’s a real charmer.

“Yeah, that guy said you weren’t here.” Your daughter said with a head shake and a big smile, “He’s so silly. Doesn't he know it’s not good to lie.” You couldn’t help the gasp that left your lips as your daughter innocently ratted him out. Sanji raised a brow as he glanced at the older man who physically paled.

You wanted to speak but you suddenly felt like every muscle in your body was made of cinder blocks. With all of his friends suddenly staring at you and your daughter you didn’t know what to say or do.

“Oh that so?” A man with dark hair and a scar under his eye said, scratching his head with a pout and a glare as he stared at the older man.

“I guess he is the silliest huh?” Sanji said with a smile as he sensed your reaction of panic to everything. “Yeah he is.” Your daughter laughed as she ran up to hug him. Her little form going to stand in front of him with arms wide as if she’s known the man her whole life.

“Cherry you just met him!” You said in a breathy gasp, “S-sorry!” You smiled in apology trying to go to her but Sanji scooped her up in a welcomed embrace that made your heart clench.

“No worries ma chérie.” He said with a wink making your blush grow even more.

Man why is he so hot! Stop being so nice it’s killing me!

“So I bet you’re excited to try some ice cream?” Sanji asked as he gave her a hug before setting her down when she was content. “Yea super excited!” Your daughter was practically buzzing with adrenaline.

“Super excited huh? Well you’re in luck little lady cause this guy makes the best in town.” A tall man with blue hair smiled at your daughter making her giggle behind her hands cutely. He wore a navy suit that somehow still looked good with his crazy bright hair. “The name’s Franky.”

“Ooooh I can’t wait Franky!” She giggled again.

“Hey Sanji I want some ice cream too~!” The man with the scar under his eye whined as he threw an arm over Sanji’s shoulder. Dark curls bouncing as he flopped his head to the side

“I already knew you would Luffy, can’t you see I’m talking to a Princess?” He chuckled with a smile as he looked at your daughter with an exaggerated eye roll.

“Princess? Oh really what kingdom huh?” The man you assumed as Luffy asked with glee that made your daughter’s eyes sparkle before she answered, “Princess Cherry Sundae!”

“No way! I’m Luffy! King of the maf-“ his words were stopped by someone hitting him in his side, “He was gonna say King of muffins.” A man with green hair grumbled as he looked at you.

No way in hell was he gonna say muffins. What the hell is he hiding? You thought before your attention went back to the handsome green haired hunk.

He was only in a black button up with a couple loose up top, sleeves rolled up showcasing beautifully strong arms. Veins rippling as he stretched his hand to scratch the back of his neck, “Name’s Zoro.” He said staring down at you slightly.

“Uh h-hello.” You smiled, “I’m Y/N but everyone calls me Honey.”

“Honey?” He asked with a smirk that had you suddenly regret revealing your childhood nickname.

“Is that because you’re a sweet girl or you taste like honey?” Someone said making your head turn quickly, your eyes met with a taller man with red shaggy hair and sunglasses on top of his head. The burgundy jacket he wore looked like it would rip at the seams from the size of him and it made you bit your lip before you snapped out of your lustful stare.

Wait did I just hear him say that. Is he for real?But… I mean if he’s asking me then shit, I might just let him get a bite. Wait nope you’re in mother mode play nice!

“E-excuse me?” Your flustered expression was alluring to the man, your face a blush as you stared wide eyed.

“You heard me.” He smirked making you swallow harshly.

“That’s a well kept secret sir.” You answered without thinking and it made him release a loud laugh, “Well shit doll now you’ve got my full attention.” The red head smirked walking closer to get a better look at you.

“Eustass Kidd.” He said holding out a large calloused hand which you took into your small yet firm grasp.

You laughed awkwardly before glancing over to Sanji, Luffy and your daughter who were now looking at you. They hadn’t noticed your little conversation thankfully since it made you slightly embarrassed.

“Nice kid.” Luffy smiled as he ruffled her hair, “You’re gonna have some to right?”

His smile was so big you couldn’t help but match it, “N-No I couldn’t. Seeing her enjoy it is more than enough for me. Thank you though.”

You thought you were being polite but Luffy’s smile dropped instantly, “No you’re gonna have some with us.” His voice a command as he removed his arm from the blonde’s shoulder, the action and tone making Sanji glare.

Did he just tell me what to do? As a grown ass woman?

“Besides you’ll love it. He makes the best ice cream ever. So come sit with me okay?” The smile was back just as quickly as it had left earlier it almost made your head spin.

Okay I guess I’ll give it a try I mean that is why I brought my baby here in the first place it shouldn’t be to bad.

“O-okay.” You said looking down at your daughter who was just jumping for joy, “Yay! Mommy and I love~ chocolate!” She answered for you. Taking your hand and Luffy’s into her small ones.

“Cherry I’m sure he wants some space dear.” You say nervously looking at Sanji and Luffy, the blond placing a reassuring hand on your shoulder.

“Don’t worry about him belle femme, he’s mostly harmless and means well.” Sanji smiled as his voice dripped with charm that tried to drown you. It almost did but you couldn’t help your brain from over analyzing like it always did.

Did he just say mostly harmless? The fuck does that mean? Okay exit check!

Your eyes glanced around the building briefly looking for all possible exits as Luffy lead you all to an area in the back. Your maternal instincts in full gear as two men pulled back a black curtain only to reveal a large gold table with another lion engraved into it. Huge stained glass windows made the gold on the table and chairs sparkle as well as your daughters eyes that lit up in awe.

“How rich are you people?!” She squealed making the men laugh. You thought Sanji’s friends were on their way out but I guess seeing you and your daughter pegged to much curiosity.

Sanji pulled a chair out for your daughter as he bowed saying, “For you Princess Cherry.” Your daughters giggle making your heart clench.

She looks so happy but what the hell did I get us into.

“You can sit by me.” Luffy smiles as he takes your hand and practically dragged you to the head of the table. Pulling out the seat that was on the right he motioned you to sit, “Go ahead I don’t bite.” He grinned, making Zoro scuff under his breath, “Yet.”

Do these men think they’re sneaky? I am a mother nothing flies by me and these hawk eyes, especially not that damn knife you think is so concealed.

You thought as your eyes caught a glimpse of silver poking from the bottom of Zoro’s dress pants when he sat down next to you. You sat down slowly with a smile as you glanced up at Luffy who pushed your chair in until you were comfortable.

“So what’s your name?” Luffy asked, taking his seat at the head of the table. He sat on a gold throne with velvet burgundy cushions. It was huge compared to the gold and black chairs the rest of you sat on.

“Y/N.” You say learning from your earlier mistake but quickly you heard Eustass laugh with a big grin, “Yeah but everyone calls her Honey. Isn’t that something?” He gave you a look that you haven’t seen in a long time.

Is he trying to flirt with me? Goodness no! There was no way!

“Honey! Really? I bet you’re sweet huh!” Luffy grinned with a chuckle that had Sanji pale ready to come to your defense in front of your child.

Gratefully though she didn’t understand his phrasing, “No she’s only sweet sometimes but trust me before bed time she can be a real handful.” Your daughter's comment made the table erupt in laughter while you stared at her.

“Hey~.” You grumbled with a head shake.

“She’s funny, I like her.” Luffy’s laugh was loud as his hand whipped a tear that fell from his eyes. “Sanji get these two the biggest chocolate sundaes ever okay? And for mine, surprise me!” His eyes gleaming with excitement at the thought of the yummy treats.

“So how do you two know Sanji?” Luffy asked when the blonde walked away. His tone was off, like he was quizzing you but kept a smile on his face for the sake of the child in the room.

It made you shiver and you hoped he hadn’t noticed, but he did and it made his eyes flash. If that was even possible you weren’t sure but it made your heart speed up.

“We’re neighbors!” Cherry answered before you could and you nodded with a smile, “Yeah we have been for a while but we never really talked until earlier today.” You said.

“Yeah he said he’d buy us ice cream cause we’re poor.” Her choice in words made your mouth drop and eyes widen in shock.

Okay wow I really need to teach her to not spill so much! Lay it all out there, why don’t you! Goodness child!

“Oh really?” Luffy looked at your daughter who nodded, making your breath quicken in embarrassment. When his gaze turned to you again he licked his lips slowly as he eyed you up and down. Leaning back into his seat he gave a nod as he looked at you, “I don’t think you’ll have to worry about that any time soon.”

You raised a brow and wondered what he meant but Sanji burst through the doors with a cheerful, “Dessert is served!”

“Yay! Thank you! This is the best day ever!” Cherry squealed and your mouth definitely watered at the sight of the delicious chocolate dessert.

I’m in a chocolate wonderland!

Sanji served everyone a dessert, knowing exactly by memory what everyone would like. Taking his seat he watched you intensely as he spoke, his slender fingers lifting a glass of red wine.

“Bon appétit.” He gestured and you blushed as your hand suddenly started to shake with his gaze on you. Grabbing your spoon you dove into the delicacy before you, your eyes widened at the taste.

Before you could stop yourself your eyes rolled back and you let out an embarrassing moan, “Mmm~!” After you realized what you did you threw a hand over your mouth in shock.

Suddenly every eye was on you, except your daughter’s, making you blush wildly. You glanced at Luffy who had a wide grin while Sanji blushed just as much as you, if not more. Franky gave a whistle at the other end of the table while Eustass and Zoro just chuckled next to you. The sound of the two large males seemed to rumble throughout the room like thunder.

No one said anything thankfully and you ate the sweet treat quickly and definitely quietly. Time passed with your daughter babbling away as Luffy asked her all types of little questions. Favorite color, favorite toy, etc. and it made time go quicker.

Not soon after you were being escorted out the door with the two owners and Eustass. Zoro and Franky had gone to the restaurant's bar after having their desserts.

“Thank you so much for everything.” You thanked with a smile as you stepped outside.

“Absolutely it was my pleasure.” Sanji replied with a hand to his heart and a toothy grin. His eyes were so bright they looked like they could turn to hearts if it were humanly possible.

“I told you he makes the best in town!” Luffy grinned.

“Wow, that's a cool car!” Your daughter shouted, gaining your attention as she tugged on your hand.

Your eyes widening at the bright red Lamborghini that the valet stepped out of. A huge skull with red hair, goggles and fire in the back adorned the hood. The design was shining brightly on the exotic car and it made you nod, “Yeah that’s definitely something.”

“Yeah maybe you can see the backseat someday.” Eustass’ husky voice whispered in your ear as he walked by with a wave that your daughter returned with glee. You gulped as you watched him drive off as if he didn’t just whisper that to you.

“Damn brute.” Sanji grumbled under his breath as he pulled out a pack of cigarettes from inside his suit jacket.

“Shishishi!” Luffy laughed with a wide grin, “Well it was really nice meeting you guys.”

“I can say the same. Thank you really, it was great.” You thanked again, making both the men nod.

“No problem, you can pay me back.” Luffy smirked, making Sanji glance at him in curiosity.

“No she can’t.” Your daughter said simply, causing Luffy to laugh, “That’s fine there’s other ways besides money to pay someone back.” Luffy had a lopsided grin on his face as he looked you up and down.

“Oh okay! Like a job, then mommy can pay you back!” Your daughter said after having a thoughtful expression. Her words made your heart quicken, goodness why was she so open!

“You know what Cherry I knew I liked you for a reason!” Luffy laughed as he bent down to ruffle her hair before his eyes locked with yours. There was a dark look in his eyes that made you feel some type of way.

After being stared at all day it was getting to you, a heat forming in the pit of your stomach. It’s been far too long since you took care of yourself intimately. Getting so wrapped up in your new role of single motherhood makes you neglect other parts of your life. It was becoming too much. All the little comments they were making, their hungry gazes, what have you gotten yourself into!

“I’ll see you soon then Honey. I’ll have Sanji give you the details soon.” He smiled.

You stuttered out without thinking, “I couldn’t possibly work here. I don't even have nice enough stuff for a place like this.” Your face flushed at your embarrassing words.

“Don’t worry about that.” Luffy grinned before stretching a hand to point behind you at the black suv that pulled up.

A man with curly hair that was pulled back in a ponytail opened the door with a big smile. “Your ride ladies.” His nose was long and you instantly thought of ways to use it as his chocolate skin glowed in the sunlight.

Luffy wore a grin as he stared at your shocked expression, the sound of Sanji’s lighter being heard next to him. “We’ll see you soon.” The blond said with a smile.

Luffy licked his lips as he spoke, “Hey Y/N if you ever need anything just let Sanji know. And I mean anything and it’s on us.”
