--------------------------------

Seleu played in the nightclub until early in the morning. In the end, Marco took the drunk girl back.

With her blond hair scattered, she leaned in Marco's arms and talked drunkenly.

"Why did you leave...I haven't had enough fun yet."

She grabbed Marco's collar and rubbed her little head restlessly against his neck.

"Okay, okay, listen."

Marco helplessly hugged her tightly to prevent her from falling due to movement.

Ace has gone back a long time ago, leaving Marco behind to accompany the little girl who was particularly excited tonight. It has to be said that a drunk Seleu can't control her. Fortunately, Marco is used to it.

After leaving the noisy environment, Marco held her and walked on the deserted street. Because it was Summer Island, the oncoming evening breeze was not cold, but refreshing and cool, and very comfortable.

Seliu seemed to be gradually falling into sleepiness because of this quiet environment. She instinctively hugged Marco's neck tightly, and leaned against his chest with flushed cheeks after being drunk.

"Heartbeat..."

She said something, but her voice was too soft and Marco didn't hear it clearly. He stopped and looked at the sweet girl in his arms.

"Marco...heartbeat"

My heartbeat?

Marco suddenly smiled and hugged her tightly to shield her from the cool wind.

Yes, Seleu has been particularly fond of listening to Marco's heartbeat since a long time ago. When they have nothing to do, the two of them will go to the deck to bask in the sun. Marco will often cross his arms and rest his head behind his head, while Seleu Just huddle next to him, put your ear close to his chest

Beat by beat, listen to his heartbeat

In the end, the two of them fell into a dream together in the gentle sunlight.

Once, he was woken up by Sachi, who was beside him. As soon as he lowered his head, Seliu leaned on his chest obediently, with a peaceful and happy smile on his lips.

Thinking of this, Marco gently approached Seleu's blond hair and placed a gentle kiss on her smooth forehead.

He knew that the red-haired pirate did not intend to return her to him, but so what. Destiny allowed him to have those memories, and he would naturally send her back to him again. The red-haired pirates only took her in temporarily when Seyu was confused. Just for a moment, her real home will always be Moby Dick

And Marco will always be her lover

Early the next morning, Seleu woke up in Marco's arms.

She opened her eyes in confusion and saw Marco's naked upper body. The tattoo symbolizing the Whitebeard Pirates was facing her, making her blush instantly.

Her whole body was nestled in Marco's arms, her arms were around Marco's waist, a straight and smooth leg was straddling his lap, and her fair calf was exposed outside the quilt, and Marco's chin was touching On the top of her hair, warm hands casually hugged her waist. Her sleeping position was much better than Seleu's.

Selustine swallowed a mouthful of saliva and froze for a long time. When she felt Marco didn't move, she was convinced that he was not awake yet.

So she carefully took off her legs that were straddling him, and gently removed her arms

After finishing this step, she waited for a while and felt relieved when she heard that Marco's breathing was still steady and unchanged.

She slowly lifted Marco's arm on her waist, and rubbed her whole body out of his arms bit by bit.

When Seleu finally turned over and got off the soft big bed, he was about to quietly look back at Marco, but found that the man who was supposed to be sleeping was holding his head with one hand and looking at it with a smile on his lips with interest. looking at her

"Yo"

Marco raised his eyebrows and watched in amusement as Seleustin's face became increasingly red.

Seleu seemed to become angry all of a sudden. He jumped on the bed and straddled Marco across the quilt.

"Ah, why didn't you tell me earlier when you woke up!"

She pretended to strangle Marco's neck and moved closer to his teasing face angrily. The warmth on her cheeks and the tightly furrowed eyebrows made her look not scary at all, but like a child having a tantrum.

Marco turned over, pushed her under the quilt, and came close to her soft cheek

Selustine regretted a little. When she wanted to run away, she found that she was wrapped in the quilt that Marco had turned over. She could only silently shrink her face into the quilt, revealing a pair of eyes that were still misty in the morning. Blue eyes, staring straight at Marco

Marco looked at the pair of azure eyes that finally lost their brightness in the dream, and suddenly felt a little distressed. He lowered his head and kissed Seleu's nervously closed eyes softly.

Seliu was touched by the gentle, warm feeling on her eyelids. She opened her eyes and looked at the man who became a little sad in an instant. She lost her words.

Marco gently pressed his forehead against Seleu's, and the two looked at each other at this extremely close distance.

For a long time, until Seleu felt that his breathing was entangled with him, Marco closed his eyes.

"Sleep a little longer, Seryu."

“There’s still a lot of time”

Before Seleustin had time to react, Marco had already gotten under the quilt again and pulled her into his arms.

For a while, the previous tranquility returned to the room.

"Um……"

Maybe it was because Marco's words made her feel it was still early, maybe it was the familiar heartbeat that made her suddenly feel sleepy, Seleu closed her eyes in his arms again.

What is our original relationship?As long as I'm by his side, I feel at ease no matter what.

Suddenly I want to quickly recall those memories with him

Before falling into a deep sleep, Seliu thought in a daze.

The room here is peaceful, but there is a cloud of worry over there

"Eh? Didn't Seryu-chan come back last night?"

Because today is the last day of the carnival, everyone plans to act together. A group of people gathered on the 19th floor to enjoy a particularly lively breakfast.

Hearing Lucky ask this, Beckman put down his fork with a headache.

"I said I was looking for those two people last night, but they didn't come back all night."

More than a dozen people from the red-haired pirate group who came to participate in the carnival festival were present, and some of them didn't know the real purpose of this trip at all, so Beckman didn't directly say the names of Marco and Ace when he replied, but Lucky suddenly Then I understood who he was talking about

"That shouldn't be a big problem, after all, we are former partners."

In fact, after Marco and Shanks talked on the first day of the Carnival, several core figures in the Red-haired Pirates knew that Seleustin had been on Whitebeard's ship, and they were undoubtedly partners.

"Tsk, that's what I said, but..."

He motioned Lucky to take a look at Shanks, and Lucky instantly became silent when he saw the extremely bad look on his face.

Last night, Aster came over specially and explained that Seleu would probably stay the night on their floor. Only then did he stop Shanks who was about to rush out to look for someone.

But knowing Seleu's whereabouts doesn't mean you can accept it well.

Looking at Shanks' face as dark as the bottom of a pot this morning, you can tell that the little girl will be in bad luck when she comes back?

"But it's true, haven't you come back by this time?"

"Maybe I'm sleeping in again."

After all, Seleu had a habit of being lethargic and irritated when he woke up, and there was a precedent of him sleeping until noon before.

"Those two people should tell her directly about the announcement of the dance tonight."

Lucky thought about the instructions sent by the organizer in the morning about the special event in the evening, and then asked

"Maybe"

Shanks's face still shows no sign of improvement. He can only pray that Seleu gets up quickly and comforts him. Otherwise, Beckman has no doubt that Shanks will rush upstairs and smash open the 20th floor. door

As Beckman expected, it was already noon when Seliu got up.

When she opened her eyes, Marco beside her had long disappeared. The thick curtains blocked the sunlight outside the window, making her unclear about what time it was. She got up and went to the window to open the curtains. The strong light at noon was The sunlight was a bit dazzling, causing her to take a step back and squinted her eyes.

This retreat, retreating into a chest still filled with water mist

Marco, who had just finished taking a shower, stretched out a hand to cover her eyes, and thoughtfully pulled back the curtain halfway.

"You just woke up, don't rush to close the curtains, it's not good for your eyes."

The voice was very gentle, as if it was spoken close to her ear, making her entire ear turn red.

She gently pulled down his hand, nodded, withdrew from his arms and walked to the bathroom to wash up.

By the time she finished cleaning up and sat at the dining table, today's lunch just happened to be delivered to her.

Ace was eating heavily next to him, not caring about the way he was eating. Seleu couldn't help but watch him take two bites and then fall asleep. He took out a tissue and put it next to him.

Ace woke up after a while, naturally picked up the paper towel that Seleu put on the side of the plate, wiped his face, and continued eating without being affected at all.

I always feel that this pattern of getting along is very familiar, including that time in the morning.

Seryu thought so with a frown on his face, and put another piece of fruit into his mouth.

"Ah, by the way, Seliu, you didn't know it when you were asleep just now, but someone brought this."

Ace rushed to the main hall, and when he came back a while later, he had a letter in his hand.

Seleu took it and read it carefully. Marco beside her silently cut the steak in front of her.

"Eh, 'FerventDesire'? Looks interesting."

This letter was sent by the organizer, explaining the special activities of this year's Carnival Festival.

"Selu, are you going?"

"Of course, the final activity will definitely be particularly interesting."

Not only are you going, but you also have to dress up nicely. After all, one of the purposes of coming to the carnival festival this time is to show off your face. It’s best to be a pirate and show off the bounty, otherwise it will embarrass Shanks too much. Got it

Wait... Shanks? ...Shanks!

She stood up suddenly, and the chair that was pushed back made a harsh scraping sound on the floor.

Marco and Ace both looked at Seleustin who suddenly looked frightened, not knowing why.

"Does Shanks know about my being here?"

Seeing how badly she looked, Ace quickly comforted her

"I specifically said hello to the redhead when I came back yesterday. It's okay."

Only then did Seliu let out a long breath, pulled back his chair and sat down.

Seeing her reaction, Marco pursed his lips.

"Seleu, let's go together tonight"

Se Liu's eyes wandered and he laughed dryly.

"Well, before I came here, I made an appointment with Shanks and the others for the last event and asked everyone to go together, but it doesn't matter, I will go find you then."

Marco looked at her very worried look, sighed, and rubbed her hair.

"Eat quickly, it will get cold soon."

Seeing Seliu obediently lowering his head to eat the steak he had cut for her, Marco's mood was not very calm.

Red hair...

After lunch, Seliu nervously took the elevator back to the 19th floor.

As soon as the door opened, there was Shanks' very gloomy figure sitting on the sofa.

Selustine knew that she was in the wrong, so she walked over silently, not daring to sit on the sofa, but cautiously squatting next to him.

"Shanks..."

As he spoke, he tugged on the corner of his clothes.

Shanks crossed his arms and looked at her condescendingly, his face still expressionless.

Seliu lowered his head unconsciously, not daring to look directly into his eyes.

After a long time, she heard a sigh from above

A big hand reached over and rubbed her head

“Don’t come back so late next time”

He said, picking up the little girl and letting her sit next to him.

Seliu moved his numb legs, nodded quickly, and finally dared to raise his eyes to look at Shanks.

When she raised her eyes, she suddenly discovered that there were a lot of red bloodshot eyes in Shanks's eyes, and he was looking at her with an emotion she couldn't understand.

With another sigh, Shanks suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled Seyu into his arms.

Leaning his head on Selustine's shoulder, his voice was a little tired

"I would be worried"

Seliu was stunned for a moment, feeling a little guilty, and soothed Shanks' back.

"I will not do it again"

Shanks was still in the same position, holding her hand tighter.

From an angle that Seliu couldn't see, he opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but finally swallowed it.

Don't do that next time
