You and Ace have known each other since little kids on Dawn Island, best friends growing up together until now that together you were on Whitebeard’s crew. Everyone noticed that the friendship between the two of you was no longer just friends, but rather a crush, but neither of you said anything.

It was a night where the crew drank alcohol, they didn’t always do it but it was a way to lighten their spirits. You and Ace were in your cabin that you two shared, you had drunk and you were drunk talking about anything and laughing, until one moment you grabbed Ace’s hat and did a silly imitation of him, Ace looked at you with a sparkle in his eyes and his blushing was no longer because of the alcohol in his body, he liked how you looked with his hat.

“Don’t you know the rule?” He said sounding somewhat amused as a playful smile appeared on his lips. “Wear the hat, ride the cowboy.”
