Kid x Reader: Bombs, bombs everywhere pt.9

The stones crunched underneath your feet as you walked over a gravel in a random direction, hoping to find something you would recognize. A sad sigh left your lips when you walked towards the amusement park after recognizing a point on the island. The things around you made the feeling of anger and sadness worse, seeing the other people smiling brightly and other eyes watching every movement from everyone around. Their preying eyes searching for things to take, humans to grab and sell them off. A shiver ran down your spine thinking back at it and your eyes travelled up to a Ferris wheel. It was the same as back then, everything was the identical as you remembered and you could easily make your way through the mass of people. Children were crying for their mother and some men were yelling for someone they had lost in the crowd. Some were happy, some were frustrated and others were lonely. The lynx that had been accompanying you the whole time mewled up at you, feeling your slight distress. You looked down and met the golden eyes of the animal that had grown a lot since you had picked her up.

Gasps were heard coming from ahead of you and as you looked towards the source of it, your face paled. Nobles were being carried around and men and women alike stepped to the side, carefully hiding their faces and bowing down for the world nobles. You clenched and unclenched your fists but bowed down like the others around you, face low and hoodie shadowing your features. The nobles halted near you and one of them said he wanted one of the girls standing there. A woman screamed as she was taken from your side, pleading for her lover. The man objected greatly for his girl and you simply grabbed his arm, yanked him back and covered his mouth with your free hand. “You make it worse when you die in front of her eyes.” You hissed and glared at him, seeing glaring eyes locking with yours. A gun was hold next to your face, pointed towards the male. The lynx started to growl and your hand had to withhold it from attacking the noble.

“Bow.” The harsh voice of an older noble said and you pulled the male to the ground with you. You saw him closing his eyes and heard him silently pray for the noble to just leave him alone. You couldn’t do anything, didn’t actually intervene, but hate for the nobles prevented you from doing so. The feet in front of you disappeared after some time and a sigh left your lips when everyone around got to their feet again to resume their tracks. “Why did you do that?! I don’t want him to have my Celester!” You clenched your jaw and hit his arm harshly. “And how would you try to avenge or save her when you’re dead?!” You started to yell at the very man. He looked sternly at first, but his face turned sad as he hung his head. A sigh left your lips as you gave him a device in his hands. “This can disturb the collar that will be on her neck when you see her. Take it when they reach the auction house. Slaves aren’t taken inside mostly.” You said and took your leaving, letting him stand alone, thinking about how and when he would try to safe his girlfriend.

You suddenly halted your tracks and slapped you head with your hand. ‘Kid has to let his ship coated if he wants to reach the New World. Of course.’ You thought and rolled your eyes as you didn’t think of that sooner. You turned yourself and walked in a different direction. It had taken you some time to finally reach it, but the ship you grew oh so familiar with came into sight. With a grin your steps get faster and longer as you started to run towards the dark ship you had called your home for quite some time, followed suit by the spotted feline. The closer you got, the more men started to get on deck to see what was nearing their ship. When you looked up with a broad smile, some men started to wave and grin at you while others simply stood there with open mouth. “Guys! You’re attracting flies with your mouths open, close them already.” You yelled up as you stood on the pier. They closed their mouths and their lips curled upwards. Jack started yelling towards you and you threw your  bag up to him. He caught it and you asked where the captain would be. “He’s probably killing his time by going to the auction house.” He yelled back and your face paled. ‘Kidding, right?’ With a last wave, you made your way towards Grove 1.

The ground suddenly started to shake as you drew closer to the grove Kid was supposed to be. It threw you off balance and with a soft thud you landed on your butt. People started to scream and run around you. You had to roll away to dodge the tramping feet coming at you. Your feline had to do the exact same thing as she was lower to the ground and people tend to lose sight of the ground when they panic. As you reached a tree where no one was walking, you sat up catching your breath with the feline next to you. “Poor girl. Almost trampled to death, that would suck.” You whispered, caressing her head and lightly scratching her ears, earning her purrs. With a smirk your hand travelled to your pocket. “I should still have.. ah yes, got it.” You muttered and pulled out a piece of dried meat in a tiny sack. The feline purred even louder and a laugh escaped your lips. “I knew you would want it.” The dried meat was held close to her face, the golden eyes following it as you waved it from one side to the other before throwing it up for her to catch. The lynx ate it contently and gave you a lick as a thank you. “No problem, girl. But now we really should try and find my captain.” You muttered, peeking around the tree, trying to find the source of the explosions and shaking of the ground.

As the shaking intensified, you knew the source was getting closer to where you were, but you just couldn’t see it. The screaming of people subsided as they had passed your whereabouts some time ago. With a last look to the lynx accompanying you, your made your way forward as you slipped from tree to tree. The explosions were closer and louder than before and as you peeked around another tree, you were almost hit by a lightbeam. “Holy!” You exclaimed, lips forming an ‘o’ as you looked at the damage done at the tree behind you. “I want that!” You said amazed and took another peek around the tree as people started to yell and crashing sounds were heard from the open space ahead of you. With sparkles in your eyes you looked at the feline next to you, amusement written all over your face. The lynx however, seemed to be annoyed and flicked with her ears, looking for more danger nearing your place.

Another crash and yelling. The voices however sounded familiar, making you run up to the open space. You took your place at the side of a tree trunk, looking down at the scene where your captain and his crew were fighting alongside with Law and his crew against a huge man with bearlike ears on his hat. A growl escaped the throat of the lynx and the man’s attention drew towards the two of you. “Castrator (y/n), Dead or Alive 85,000,000 beli.” He said. “Oh, it was raised again?” You said with a laugh but that ceased when a lightbeam was charging from his mouth. “(y/n)!” Kid’s voice rang in surprise as his eyes trailed to your form. “(y/n)-ya!” Law yelled and you jumped aside with the feline in your arms to dodge the destruction of the beam. When dust was settling a cough escaped your lips as you waved away the cloud from your nose. “Damn! What’s your secret? I want to be able to do that too!” You yelled back as Law smirked at you and Bepo charged in to attack the man. He was hit back and the bear acted as if he had died. Your attention went to the nearing marines who hadn’t seen you at all. With a smirk you threw one of your latest creations, creating a crate in the middle of the crowd, taking out all of them immediately.

After a little while you fought side by side with Penguin and Shachi against the upcoming crowds of marines. The men in the clearing started to be worn out, but as they were too close to the one they were fighting against, all you could do was drawing away marines. Another explosion and Kid started to laugh, making you look back at what happened back there. This distraction was enough for one of the marines to hit your shoulder, making you scowl at him. “Oh no, you didn’t.” You growled and the shooter flinched at your tone. In a blink of the eye the man was on the ground by your hand. Smoke twirled from your gun and you turned to walk to the clearing, curious about what happened back there.

Kid raised his hand, claiming that the shichibukai to be dead by his hand. His crew cheered of happiness but Law started to doubt this victory. Kuma couldn’t be that easy to defeat, could he? Just as his doubt had left his lips, the man started to stand back to his feet, electricity whirring from the cuts in its body. Kid stumbled back in confusion as the body raised to its feet, exclaiming it was a cyborg and not a human body. Energy charged from its hand and Kid was too exhausted to do something, only taking a few steps back. “Kid!” You screamed to him, hoping to get him back to where he was and not spacing out. A blue sphere formed around the cyborg and Law appeared out of nowhere, stabbing the cyborg with his Nodachi. A happy sigh left your lips and you ran up to your crew while Kid started bickering with Law.

Killer turned around and pulled you in his arms. “You’re safe.” He whispered and you nodded against his chest. “Yes, I am.” You whispered back, taking in the scent of the blonde you had missed dearly. New marines started to gather around the groups and Bepo kicked one of them. “A white bear?” One asked confused and Bepo took a stand in a karate pose, making weird noises. ‘He never learns, does he?’ You thought, looking at the scene and a new face hit the marines away with one hit. “Hey, you!” Bepo yelled at him. Kid and Law walked towards the groups. “Hey, Trafalgar. About what we were talking about earlier… What’d you mean he wasn’t a Warlord?” Kid asked, looking at Law with a scowl on his face. Suddenly the cyborg landed in front of the two and Kid drew his dagger near his chest. “What now?!” The cyborg charged at Kid and Law and their eyes widen as they stood there frozen. As fast as you could you ran towards the two of them and yanked them aside, rolling with Kid over the ground and Law jumped to his feet.

“Ow.” You muttered as Kid’s head leaned heavily on your damaged shoulder. “(y/n), you okay?” Your captain asked as he leaned on his hands, hovering over your body and you nodded slightly, eyes back on the mechanic man attaching the both of you. Kid jumped to his feet, took your form in his hands and now dodged the man with you in his arms. He huffed and you blushed slightly at the closeness of both your bodies. “Don’t think a flashbomb will work.” Kid muttered and you shook your head. “Nope.” With that you jumped out of the way for Kid to attack once again. You saw everyone being exhausted and their energy started to be drawn even more the more time this battle took. Scratches and cuts were gracing your arms and legs and your breathing was ragged. “(y/n)-ya, use it.” Law muttered as he landed close to you. “But it could..” “I’ll make sure everyone is safe, just use it.” Law said as he prepared a room. You took in a deep breath, grabbed a prototype from your pouch on your leg and clicked the button.

Law took your arm and you threw the bomb towards the cyborg. “Shambles.” The explosion sounded further away than you had expected and you let the breath go between your lips. Calloused hand pulled your form from Law’s presence and into a firm chest. As you looked up, you could see a glaring Kid which made you chuckle slightly. “I think it’s time to leave now.” Kid growled at which Law nodded, his eyes never leaving yours as he bid his farewell. “Well? How do you know each other?” Kid growled, his grip tightening slightly. “Kid.. That hurts.” You muttered, looking forward and Kid let your arm go with a whispered apology. “Law was a teenager when I first met him. It was when I was running from my uncle and I stumbled into him. I left him soon after as David had found the island where I was residing. I lived with him for some weeks. After that, it was until a couple of weeks after I threw your crewmates on board that I would see him once again.”

Kid nodded slowly, looking warily around to make sure to see an attack coming when it would come. “He helped me to escape once again from my uncle and took me in until today. That was it actually.” You said with a smile. “So, you didn’t do anything with him?” Kid asked softly, pink gracing his features. “Do what?” You asked confused and he looked down on you, shaking his head slightly at your innocence. “Nothing.” You puffed your cheeks. “Humpf.” “We should get you treated. Come on. The sooner we’re back on my ship the better.” Kid yelled to the others and the group started to accelerate to the docks Kid was keeping his ship.

“So.. Someone had taken your room and now we don’t really have a place for you to stay, actually.” Killer said, rubbing his neck awkwardly as you sat in the infirmary. “You’re joking, right?” You asked as you frowned at the blonde man. “Sorry, I’m not.” He muttered and you asked him where you were supposed to sleep with a sigh. “You had been sleeping with me some time ago and nothing happened, why not again? The bed is big enough.” Kid said, leaning against the wall and arms crossed while looking away from you. “I.. If it’s not too much.” You whispered as pink dusted your cheeks. Killer picked it up and chuckled lowly. “Well, you could sleep with me too, but my bed isn’t that big.” “No, I’m fine.” You said with wide eyes, hands waving defensively to Killer. “Bagger.” Killer whispered, but you simply disregarded it as a joke, when he pushed you a little with a chuckle.

That evening was quite.. interesting and awkward. You had changed yourself already when Kid stepped inside of his room and threw his cloak over a chair before loosening his pants. You squeaked and hid your now red face from the bigger man. Kid smirked, resumed his stripping to his undergarments and walked into the bathroom. You quickly hid yourself under the blanket. As Kid stepped inside of the room again after some time, he looked around confused until his eyes fell on his bed. With a low chuckle he too laid down, head on his arms as he laid on his back. “What happened with my fearsome crewmate? Did it disappear when she was with Law?” Kid joked with a low voice. You pulled the covers over your head to display your not so pleased face to Kid. “No, but I’m not used to this. It’s embarrassing.” You whispered and hid yourself again. Kid laughed and ruffled the place where your head was supposed to be. “You just have to sleep, nothing else.” He muttered and turned to his side, his back facing you as you came from your hiding place. “Goodnight, (y/n).” Kid said and your lips curved up a little. “Goodnight, Kid. And thanks once again for letting me sleep here.” You whispered the last part, thinking he would maybe not hear it. “No problem. Don’t mind a beautiful woman in my bed, ya know?” Heat crawled up your cheeks as you quickly turned your back to him. “Thank you..” You whispered as the drowsy feeling overtook you and sleep came quickly. Kid turned around and looked at you with a sigh. ‘Since when do I even feel like this?’ He wondered and his hand hovered over your shoulder, battling his need to touch you. With another sigh his hand dropped and Kid closed his eyelids, letting sleep take over.

In the middle of the night you felt warm and trapped, but the feeling of safety was stronger than the feeling of leaving the warm embrace you were in. His chest was pressed to your back and his arm draped over your waist, curling over your stomach to let his hand hold you on the side of your hip you laid on. His warm breath tickled your neck as your hair was brushed aside by his arm under your head. Your legs were intertwined with each other and your cheeks were burning as the thought that Kid maybe liked you crossed your mind. That was put aside quickly though, as you knew he had had many women before, even when you were on board of his ship and he never showed any interest in you. Your heart clenched together. Maybe your feelings this moment would explain why it hurt seeing your red haired captain with someone else, flirting and laughing with another woman. But the hurt was strongest when he told your occasionally that he hated you. ‘Maybe you’re wrong?’ Another voice popped in. ‘Maybe he did it to get your attention, but in a Kid-way.’ A groan left your lips as you closed your eyes once more. ‘Or maybe I should enjoy this as long as possible.’ You thought, wiggling in Kid’s embrace to feel him as much as physically possible.

Kid was awake for quite some time before you woke up and the conversation in your mind took place. It wasn’t actually his plan to invade your personal space and take you in his arms, but he enjoyed it nevertheless. The groan leaving your throat caught his ears and he knew by then you were awake. Kid’s body tensed with you wiggling, thinking you would leave him. When you were wiggling towards his body however, this feeling left him immediately and he had to restrain himself to not simply pull you even closer to him, to not attack your exposed skin of you neck and to not think about inappropriate things, making this situation even more awkward. Oh, how much he wanted you right now, to make you his, but he had to wait, wait how this would turn out and what you would do the next morning. For now, he closed his eyes once again and went to sleep.

That morning, you weren’t back to chest with Kid anymore, but face to face, only inches apart from him. You flinched at the closeness with your captain and a breath hitched in your throat. Kid stirred at the sound but to you it seemed he didn’t wake up just yet. You let your eyes wander over Kid’s face, as you never really were this close to him before. His lips looked soft and his breath was warm when it flew over your face. His hair fell a little over his cheeks and eyelids as he slept. His arm kept you close and your arm was draped over his waist. The urge to caress his cheeks was huge, wanting to know if it was tough as it looked or soft as you hoped. Lifting your arm from his waist, wiggling it between the pressed bodies, your hand was almost cupping his cheek. In a split second, your wrist was gripped and Kid’s eyes were taking in every movement from you. Heat crept to your cheeks and your lips formed an ‘o’. “I wasn’t..” Kid’s lips formed themselves to a smirk. “Oh, you weren’t?” Kid chuckled and turned you to your back, his body hovering over yours. “Kid? What are you..?” Your sentence was cut short by Kid’s lips as they crashed on yours.

For a second, you were frozen as his surprisingly soft lips molested yours. Soon though, you participated the kiss that heated up immediately. Kid was harsh but gentle, remote to how you would react when he went a step further. A smirk formed on his lips when you tried to push him away, needing for air. His lips stayed hovering over yours as your breaths mixed together, making the little space in between hotter with every exhale. Your noses touched each other as Kid brushed yours with his. (e/c) orbs never ceased looking at the ember coloured ones as both of you panted slightly. With a grin you pulled Kid closer as you tugged his hair towards you. This time, you were both softer and more gentle. The captain took the initiative and nibbled your lower lip, asking permission to enter. The same time you gave him permission by opening your mouth, your fingers found their way to Kid’s scalp, massaging it softly. This earned you a soft moan from the redhead, rumbling from his chest to his throat. His wet muscle inspected every tiny space in your cavern, cupping your cheeks to tilt your head a little. The battle for dominance that followed was cut short as Killer walked in the room. Kid yanked himself off of you and you turned as red as a tomato. “What?!” Kid yelled to his first mate in annoyance. “Breakfast is ready.” Killer said with a shrug and chuckled as he saw your face. “So… did I interrupt something~?” The blonde sing sang. “Go away!” Your captain said angrily and Killer walked casually out of his room. Kid sighed, but the following words of Killer made him lean his head on your shoulder. “Guys! They’re together!” You heard Killer yell through the corridors and Kid growled lowly while you chuckled a little. “I’m going to kill him one of these days.” You heard him mutter and laughed softly.

“Think it’s funny?” Kid asked, raising his head slowly as your eyes met his. “N-no, captain.” You stuttered. “Good. Because I was serious.” His lips touched yours again and moved against them, forcing them to mimic his motions.

Let’s say your day started off amazing~.
