Ace chuckled as Smoker fumbled with his slim belt.

"Something wrong? I don't remember you ever being this clumsy."

Smoker growled as he yanked the slip of leather free and threw it across the room.

"I just don't like it."

"Oh sorry, how about now?" Ace apologized and the precise and dexterous fingers that had been running under the base of the Marine's exposed shaft swiveled up and spread the man's own precum over the red head before sliding down in a firm, tantalizing stroke.

"Uggghhhaaa." Smoker's moans were deep and guttural but he gritted out a response through them. "That wasn't what I meant." He looked into the unfamiliar face holding the all too familiar smirk. Blond straight hair replacing a raven carefree shag. Swirly brow instead of freckles. Ivory, pearl skin, not the tan he's run his coarse hands over before. "I feel like I'm cheating on you."

"Heh, is that all? You know you wanted one more chance to properly say good bye." Another groan was pulled from Smoker but both of the man's hands connected to the blond's privates, Going to work so fast and diligently that Ace's grumble of pleasure and hitched breath followed closely behind. "Sanji was the only one sensitive enough and he was willing to let me use him to say my good byes."

"But did you explain what 'saying goodbye' to me would probably turn into?"

There was an almost unsettling silence but then the blond's tongue trailed below the commander's stomach. Lips hovering so very close to his dick he has to suppress a shiver as the warm breath coasts across it.

"Did you want me to stop?"

"Hell no."

Smoker feels a smile press against his aching erection.

"Good answer."
