Time [Ace x Reader]

chapter 31 / Tama

Ace's POV

Huh? Huuuuuuuh???
My mouth fell open as I stared at Y/N. Her entire aura had changed in a matter of seconds. As if someone had switched her personality, the sweet and bubbly girl I thought I had gotten to know was nowhere to be found.
The dim candlelight cast flickering shadows across the room whilst a strange atmosphere filled the air.
I didn't know how to describe it. Cool? tense? electric?
Alert I watched the elf. She was standing with her back towards me. Her hair still damp from her shower, dressed in a vintage (f/c) nightgown that couldn't hide the beautiful shape of her body.
Mesmerised I stared at the gorgeous woman, almost forgetting to breathe when she finally turned towards me.
The way the candle light reflected of her skin, the way her lashes were casting a shadow over her eyes. There was only one word that could describe this new side of Y/N, Alluring.

Wait, what is this? What is she trying to do? Wha-
My mind went blank as Y/N finally lifted her head, staring at me with a sexy smile, whilst slowly walking towards me.
"Y-Y/N?"

I internally panicked as the alluring elf gradually closed in on me.
Hold on, wait- Is she? Is she really about to-
Taking a deep breath I tried to calm myself and put on the unimpressed poker face that I used to be so good at.
Y/N had reached the bed climbing onto her side. However she wasn't stopping there, sensually crawling over to me.
Oh god. Oh my god. I must be dreaming. What do I do? This- this will change everything between us. Does she know what she's doing? Did Lou make her consume something weird?
Sh- she's closing in. Is she trying to kiss me? I mean I do-
Just as I was about to close my eyes and go in for a kiss Y/N reached over me and picked up the candle, that was standing on my bedside table.
"Wha-"

Embarrassed I immediately stopped my surprised shout.
You have got to be kidding me. I can't believe she just did that.
Angry and flustered I gritted my teeth.
Y/N had got me good this time. I had really just fallen for her act like that.
What would she do if it hadn't been me? If it was another man she pulled that trick on? They could attack her, force themselves upon her, they could-
Actually now that I think about it, I should probably rather feel sorry for anyone who dared to attack Y/N.
A shiver ran down my spine as I imagined how many seconds it would take Y/N to absolutely antihalate any aggressor. RIP poor soul!

"Huh, Ace? What's wrong? You're face is all red."

Y/N asked innocently, immediately ripping me out of my thoughts as a wave of flustered rage build up inside me.
What the hell? Don't give me that sh*t! You know exactly what you just did! And you totally did it on purpose!

"I swear you better watch your back Voice. Cause I am absolutely going to make you pay for this."

"Huh? What are you talking about mystery boy? I just want to blow out the candle. Why would you need to get revenge for this? Would you prefer for the whole ship to burn down instead?"

"You annoying smart*as."

"I believe even an unintelligent person would remember to blow out a candle. Wouldn't you?"

"Sure sure, play innocent all you want."

"Innocent? Wait? Could it be that you thought I would do something to you? I am offended. I would never just violate someone like that. Spice needs consent!"

"Spice really? Oh, well whatever. I am so done with this sh*t."

"Ace language!"

I swear. This woman is really trying to get on my nerves tonight.
Grumpy and embarrassed I turned my back towards Y/N and pretended to go to sleep.
Why would she do something like that?
