Kitsune here with a Halloween treat. I don't think anyone actually saw this on Tumblr….So sad. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it. I swore I'd never do anything with vampires, but I did.


"It looks like the bleeding has stopped, Luffy. I'm sure Ace will be fine."

"Oh thank God! I thought I had killed your boyfriend!" Luffy wailed.

Sabo felt his cheeks heat up as he snapped, "He's not my boyfriend! Why does everyone keep calling him that?" Ace was just a really great friend! Besides, Sabo was dating someone, even if it was unlikely to become serious. Kohza was a little too rigid for Sabo's taste but they still had good time together.

"Because he is! You talk about him a lot and go to the movies and stuff with him, and Zoro said you were dating."

"Zoro should mind his own business." Sabo said with a little heat. He still hadn't forgiven the other for outing him to Luffy as gay… and the rest of the world by proxy, even if the man had thought Luffy knew.

Luffy pouted, but let that drop. "You told Taffy you were seeing someone."

Or so he thought. "I told Trafalger I was seeing someone, yes. Not that I was seeing Ace." He held up his hand, "Who I admit I think is hot but he's too old for me." Besides, Ace was his best friend for all that he had a creepy habit of sneaking into his apartment late at night and making himself at home. At least he'd stopped staring at Sabo while the blond was sleeping. That had been beyond freaky. Stupid….

"Is this about him being a 'Vampire' or whatever lame excuse it was for never sending me a picture?"

"It's not an excuse! He's seriously doesn't photograph well-"

"Neither does Sanji, and you don't see him pretending to be a prince of the undead."

Sabo made a noise of frustration, missing the days when Luffy believed him because he was the big brother. Luffy's friends were a lot more cynical and were obviously protective of his brother's gullible nature. Which he was all for. Just… not against himself. "Look. Try and take a picture of Ace with your phone if you don't believe me."

Before Luffy could reply, Ace groaned and sat up, slowly clutching his head. "What 'appened?"

"I hit you with a frying pan when you snuck in the window. "Luffy stated bluntly, snapping a picture with his phone. "Sorry." He said in a tone that was not sorry. At all.

Ace blinked at him. "Right. 'O th' ell ar' ya?"

A blank stare and the thicker than normal accent had the hair on Sabo's neck standing up. "Do you know who I am?"

A shifty look. "Maybe."

"Do you know who you are?"

"Sabo what kind of stupid question is-" Luffy began. Sabo quickly covered his mouth when Ace's eyes lit up.

"I think you might have given him amnesia." Sabo said with a grimace as Luffy licked his palm.

"How would a va-" Sabo cut him off by wiping the slobber off his hand on Luffy's shirt.

"I don't know how, alright? But he doesn't know his name, so…"

"'Course I do!" Ace snapped, glaring at them.

Sabo looked at his friend expectantly while Luffy snapped another photo, pouting at his phone. "Well?"

"It's…." Grey eyes roved around the room before landing on his own tattooed arm, and the undead idiot grinned. "Ace!"

Luffy started to snicker loudly, fingers flying across his phone and Sabo just knew this was going to end up on Twitter.

"Well," He said more than a little hysterically, "That explains why you got your own name on your arm." He supposed it was a relief if that was the case. That meant it wasn't the first time and the vampire would get better soon.

Hopefully.
