(Newgate x Reader)

We were separated. Two lovers separated by the great pirate era. He sailed off claiming to come back for you. Leaving you with a silver ring and a broken promise. It's been thirty years. He was thirty years too late.

You've eaten a devil fruit, the ability to never age. Where your age would add on, but your face would remain in your youth. You moved away and started a bar on some island you wound up on. The silver ring slung around your neck. Hoping one day he would return and take you with him. But as each passing day went by. Your heart broke more and more each day.

You perked up when people were running and screaming. You looked out the window, seeing a few pirate ships on the horizon.

"Well, its bound to get interesting." You hummed.

You clapped your hands going down to the cellar to get a barrel. But as you rolled it back up you heard the bell chime to the store.

"Just a moment!" You called.

You grunted picking up the barrel but. A helping hand helped you place it back on the stand. You sighed in relief looking to your work.

"Thanks. But I could of done it-" you turned to him your eyes widened and your body relaxed, "myself."

He smiled to you before you sniffled as your eyes began to water. A tear rolled down your cheek as your eyes flicked to his dark brown.

"M-Marco?" You sniffled.

You both didn't hesitate before embracing each other. You started to cry on his shoulder clutching onto his purple shirt then pulled back cupping his face.

"You've grown up too fast." You cried.

The bell chimed again as you snapped to Thatch. He was out of breath. Tears flowed down your cheeks. As he approached and joined the hug. You peppered there faces in kisses. Both of the two little boys you and Newgate picked up were grown into fine young men. You pulled back looking at them and smiled.

"Pops is here too ma." Marco said.

"Newgate?" You said.

"Yeah, he never gave up looking for you."

They smiled with tears in there eyes before leading you out of the bar. He sat on the cobblestone. The giant man sat on the ground as his eyes lit up seeing you. Along with the many new faces surrounding him. Thatch and Marco let you approach him slowly before you stood before him. Both of you had an unbroken gaze. Letting the wind flutter and move your clothes and hair. You reached up for him as he bent over to you. Your tiny hand touched his cheek before tears pooled in your eyes and you began to cry.

"You old idiot!" You cried.

You embraced him peppering his faces in kisses having the boys laugh. Newgate did as well. You sniffled pilling back as he held you in his hands.

"Come," he said, "Come sail the seas with us. I lost you once, I'm not going to lose you again."

You smiled, "Of course."

That ring was moved back to your finger as news spread of Whitebeard's long lost wife was now found. Along with the misfits of sons had a mother.

You stepped out of your room. Pulling close your robe and went to the railing of the ship. Where one of your sons resided. You looked over to him as he turned to you.

"Oh- uh hello." He said.

"You don't need to act so awkward around me. I'm your mother now. But. Your face looks familiar."

He glanced away as his finger ran over the wood of the railing.

"Ah, your his son." You hummed.

He turned to you as you looked up to the sky.

"H-how do-"

"I was there. When you were born, when you were handed off to Garp. Your mother was a strong woman. A woman I'm inspired to be. And I'm glad all that she did, didn't go in vain." You said.

"Why were you there."

You glanced down to the wood before going back to the Stars.

"Let's just say, she is among the heavens now." You said, "She is being taken care of by your mother, while you are being taken care by me."

Then you stepped away and went to the door. You turned to Ace and smiled.

"If no one has told you, but you look just like your mother. Portgas D. Ace."

Then you stepped away to the belly of the ship. 

Does anyone else agree? Ace looks like his mother, Law looks like his dad, and Sanji looks like his mom.
