wouldn't be jealous.

a lopsided smile on his lips, he puts down the meat on one side of the grill, some veg on the other side. there were two big grills to cook on, the fish would go on last of course.

the last remnants of orange light was just about leaving the water's edge. as much as he missed the water and the sand at home, he'd fallen in love with the shoreline over here too. he had a silly thought while he watched the sea foam on the dark sand. an earnest hope that his beach at home

goes over to the parking lot to get in the last of the iceboxes. he'd prepped the fish at home, fresh from this morning of course. all that was left now was to put the meat on the heat, and wait for the guests to come in. he'd given nami the address and told her seven. +

ready to be put on the coals.

he'd always been a natural at putting the coals on. fire liked to behave around him, or so they said about him in his village. as clumsy as he could be at a kitchen stove, he could handle an open fire easily. with the coals somewhat warmed and catching, ace +

the scene was all set, @thievishcat.bsky.social 's birthday party was ready to go. a small corner of the beach just by the water was set up with firewood and stone. some string lights and paper lanterns to set the mood. and the main event, the barbecue-- meat and fish all marinated and +

then, snapping out of his reverie of sorts, ace looks back at her face, "i'll take you up on that offer~ i didn't know you had a bike! hell yeah biker girl creds"

Portgas D Ace @chicoencendido.bsky.social · Jul 8

she looked smart. not just book smart.

Portgas D Ace @chicoencendido.bsky.social · Jul 8

his lips while he stared out the window. "she studies a lot, and she's on a scholarship like me."

he was curious about her. surely there was more to her than her pretty face too. especially if she also struggled with finances. he hoped he didn't seem like too much of a village idiot to her. +

Portgas D Ace @chicoencendido.bsky.social · Jul 8

he was desperately trying to think of something that trumped being poor. not too many. "maybe i get tipped more? ionno, but yeah, i think she likes me. . i'll give it a shot. i said i'll take her snorkeling too, she likes beaches"

he was sure he was smiling like an idiot now, a big sigh leaving +

Portgas D Ace @chicoencendido.bsky.social · Jul 8

"d'awww did you just call me prettyyy~", busy framing his face with both his palms and smiling goofily at her, he rolls his eyes a little at the comment about a fan club of ladies. "see these fine ladies like me cause of my personality, i think. . being pretty does have its advantages of course" +

Portgas D Ace @chicoencendido.bsky.social · Jul 7

WHOA look at you go! hot and dangerous 🔥 👀

Portgas D Ace @chicoencendido.bsky.social · Jul 7

He'd make sure it was special. Maybe he'd figure out what kind of present she'd like from him while they talked. "You said you're from outta town too right? Where from?"

Portgas D Ace @chicoencendido.bsky.social · Jul 7

She was asking him for a drink? That was different than a lunch, for sure. He gives her a little smile, "Yeah course", the smile grows wider while he practically winks at her, "I got lotsa stories for you, if you get bored of em, I'm a great dancer, you like dancing?"

Her twentieth birthday. +

Portgas D Ace @chicoencendido.bsky.social · Jul 7

party to remember.

Portgas D Ace @chicoencendido.bsky.social · Jul 7

impressed by it however, a big smirk on his face as he recalls the memory.

"buuut she did invite me to her birthday party, she wants me to help with it too, i said ill do a barbecue on the beach--"

if it wasn't clear already, he was nervous about it. he just wanted to do a good job, give her a +

"naw robin you don't understand, this girl is drop dead gorgeous, bet she's got like ten guys lining up for her with flowers, chocolates, diamond earrings hell-- ive seen her shoot down guys so easy in class it's a clown fest when they try--"

ace grins sheepishly again, "yanno you talk like a 70 year old lady straight outtve a movie sometimes-- aren't flowers kinda corny? i wish i had a car to pick her up in at least, all i got is this bucket of trash that barely works as a scooter"

but then he makes a little face, "not like i know anything about romance. i take a girl dancing, we fool around a little, that's it. the end. beginning to think my luck's just shit"

he begins wiping down the counter, though it's practically spotless. just something to do with his hands, +

ace nods at her in understanding. if she wasn't worried he was taking advantage of her or anything, there wasn't anything to worry about. he flashes her a big old smile now, brown eyes practically sparkling.

"that's great robin! happy for ya--", +

making out with a pretty man in public, and in her case at least she was sober.

once the machine beeps, he turns around briefly to bring the cookie plate out to her. "are you worried it's goin too fast or?"

Portgas D Ace @chicoencendido.bsky.social · Jul 7

he was just eating this up, chin in palm, elbow propped up on the counter. "mhmm i see, first date went really well then~"

that's how he saw it anyhow. if you got a kiss in, it was a good date. if you got tongue it was a great date. nothing more to it. he was the last person to judge her for +

Portgas D Ace @chicoencendido.bsky.social · Jul 7

have to make it extra special. The cogs were turning in his head already.

"Oh yeah! He's a sweetheart, friend of my boss's. I got his little girl a cat and she absolutely loves me. I got it covered--", he grins at her good naturedly. "Twelve people sounds so good, cozy and cute. What is this, not your twenty first!"
