//Sabo x Reader//



The city was destroyed. The buildings, which were in all their glory a few hours ago, were almost in ruins. There was no one on the streets. Chaos was dominating the city. Agony was in every civilian heart. And Dressrosa´s only hope was in its most delicate point.


5 minutes


The destiny of everyone was depending on the next moments. In 5 minutes, Luffy’s haki would be restored. He was the only one who could fight against Doflamingo. The only one who could put to an end to the Birdcage. Everyone’s life depended on the straw hat captain.

(Name) was running beside Gyats, who was carrying an almost unconscious Luffy on his back. Almost every gladiator stayed behind to stop Doflamingo. Her mind was racing, trying to find something that could buy them more time.

“Watch out” Luffy’s whisper barely reached (Name)’s ear. She adopted quickly a defensive position.

The wall of a fallen building that was beside them was destroyed. The (h/c) haired woman raised her arms to her face. The pieces of stone rasping her skin. A big mole of muscles appeared from it as a malicious laugh reached her ears “Die, straw hat!”

Before (Name) could protect Luffy from the dagger that threaten his life, a tall figure with  long black coat kicked Burgess’s face, stopping his attack and sending him towards the floor.

(Name) observed how some wavy blond locks stood out from his black hat. A hat that somehow resembled her to another one very similar. Another hat that wore someone very precious for her a long time ago. And Luffy’s words echoed her mind.


He’s alive (Name)
It couldn’t be.


“The three star criminal” one gladiator said

“He’s the Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army!” another one shouted.

“Sabo!” Luffy’s relief could be heard in his tone. And (Name) couldn’t believe it.

“I’m Sabo from the Revolutionary Army! And Straw Hat Luffy is my brother” His voice was firm and very mature. Fitting for a 22 old year male. “What do you want from him, Burgess?”

He sounded so angry saying that he wouldn’t let anyone hurt Luffy. His voice held a contained sorrow talking about Ace. And God when he turned around to talk with Luffy, (Name) wanted to cry. He was very handsome, even with that scar over his left eye. His wavy blond hair was the same shade as the 10 year old Sabo she knew. And his smile, the same gesture, the same big and innocent grin that would lit up her world when she was little. And still…

That was impossible, wasn’t it? He was only part of her bittersweet childhood. It couldn’t be that Sabo, her Sabo, was alive. He would have searched for them. He would have interfered in the war. Sabo would have done something to prevent Ace’s death!

And she had been so quiet, not believing what her (e/c) eyes were watching that he almost missed her. Almost. His dark eyes looked at her, and when he recognized her, his breath hitched. Those (h/c) locks, those beautiful (e/c)… She was one of his most cherished memories. She was his best friend.

“(Name)…” his voice said her name with the same fondness her Sabo would say it.

It took her so much time to accept that he wouldn’t grow up with her, she wouldn’t be fooled. And (Name) gave a step back. Sabo’s eyed widened, not expecting it. Hurt crossed his gaze.

“You aren’t my Sabo” the (e/c) eyed girl said “He wouldn’t have left us for twelve years” her lips trembled “I don’t accept you as the owner of Ace’s fruit”

The blond man gave her a sorrowful gaze. He wanted to explain to her so badly… But before the male could say something, Burgess laughed “Your talking is pathetic… I’ll be taking the mera-mera no mi right now!”

Sabo twirled his metal tube and he faced Blackbeard’s pirate “Look after them, Pets!” He was definitely going to protect his brother and (Name).

And if we all survive, I’m going to talk to her. No matter what.



(...)




(Name) closed the door behind her. She inhaled deeply as she walked a few steps, leaving behind the cosy house where the rest of the crew and Sabo were. The moon was full illuminating the dark sky. The (h/c) haired woman stopped to admire the beautiful sight of all the city of Dressrosa which was starting to be rebuilt.

The nocturnal peace of the kingdom contrasted with the swirl of emotions (Name) was feeling at the moment. She couldn’t decide whether to feel sad, angry, confused or everything at the same time after hearing Sabo’s story and indirect explanation about his absence for all those years.

He had had amnesia. The blond male had forgotten about Terminal Gray. He hadn’t remembered anyone. Dadan. Garp. Ace. Luffy. Herself. He had lived 10 years not knowing what he had left behind.


If only…


Things could have been different. They would have grown together and shared so many laughs, so many tears, and so many hopes. Those innocent and joyful years with those adorable boys were sacred for her. It felt like there was going to be always like that. Ace, Sabo, Luffy and her. Until that horrible day that changed everything.

It had been so hard for everyone to finally admit that Sabo would no longer be with them. And now, he came back. She kept beating herself thinking about how everything would have turned. How Ace could be alive. How he didn’t have the opportunity to see Sabo once again. And how things would have been between Sabo and herself. Because deep inside, the (e/c) eyed woman always knew that the bond she shared with Sabo was different from the one she had with Ace and Luffy.


“(Name)…” someone whispered quietly interrupting her thoughts. The (h/c) haired woman didn’t turn around. She already knew who it was. “I just…” he sighed messing with his locks nervously not really knowing what to say.

The straw hat member smiled bitterly. “I know” The (e/c) eyed woman gulped not wanting him to hear her sobs. “I’m sorry” She kept looking at the horizon, giving him her back. (Name) didn’t have courage enough to face him “What I’ve told you this morning was very cruel.”

“It’s okay…” Sabo relaxed a bit seeing that she was at least talking with him. The blond male felt courageous enough to push his luck and stepped forward. A few inches separated their bodies. (Name) shivered feeling his warmness at her back. “(Name), look at me please” The revolutionary grasped her right arm, spinning her to finally look at her.

He lost all his words when he saw her tears. (Name) couldn’t look at him. The (h/c) haired woman felt ashamed of her own behaviour. She should have listened to him before judging him.

“(Name)… come here” Sabo wrapped his arms around her waist, hugging her close to his body “I’m sorry too” He whispered inhaling her scent. It brought him memories of late stormy nights with her “I wish things had been different… but I’m grateful that you are still alive” He hold her tighter against him. (Name) melted in his warmness, letting out everything.

“We could almost hear your voice when we trained Sabo… as if you were still there with us” her voice was a mere broken whimper “I went to the harbour every day for an entire year waiting for you to come back, not wanting to believe that you… ” Her trembling hands gripped his shirt as she poured out all her heart “I couldn’t handle those thundering nights without you…” (Name) buried her nose in his shoulder sobbing uncontrollably “I’ve missed you… I’ve missed you so much”

They stood like that for a few minutes. As if their souls needed each other presence to heal the wounds and scars they carried for the last decade. As if their hearts wanted to at least made up for the long absence.

The couple undid the hug slowly. (Name) looked at Sabo’s dark eyes when he whipped away the last tears of her face. It was then when she look carefully at the scar of his left eye.

“This was from…” (Name) trailed off as her fingertips caressed tenderly the mark.

“Yes” He took her hand gently “Those eyes…” The (h/c) haired woman blushed realising the intensity of the blond gaze. “Even though I forgot everything from Goa… (e/c) eyes haunted my dreams from time to time” (Name)’s heart pounded hard against her ribs. He was so close…

Sabo pressed his lips against hers gently, like he would have done years ago if they had grown up together. (Name) closed her eyes, enjoying the attention. He kissed her slowly, as if he was afraid of hurting her. It took them a few seconds to match each other rhythm. And when Sabo’s tongue explored her warm mouth. (Name) let out a soft sigh, leaning against him as her hands went to caressed softly his blond lock. And so they were wrapped in an intense and deep kiss.

They separated slowly but stood very close to each other. Neither of them wanting to let go of their intimate moment. Their foreheads were pressed together as they recovered their breath.

The special atmosphere was suddenly interrupted by the soft buzzing of Sabo’s Den Den Mushi. The revolutionary man sighed knowing what it mean “(Name) I-”

“I know. You have to go” The (h/c) haired woman whispered “It’s okay” She reassured.

Sabo took her hands pressing them together as he kissed her fingers tenderly “I’ve given Roronoa a vivre card.” His dark orbs were gazing at her passionately “From now on, no matter what…I’ll be watching over Luffy and you… I’ll always be there when you need me”

(Name) smiled at him and reached for her back pocket “I want you to keep this” She gave him the folded small paper.

Sabo opened it and his eyed widened “T-this…” He was really touched looking at the photo.

“We took it the day Ace started his journey” (Name) explained “I’ve always taken it with me but…” her tone softened “It will be better if you-”She couldn’t finish for Sabo kissed her hardly, taking her breath away.

“I’ll treasure it” he was almost on tears. “Thank you”

“Take care, okay?” (Name) asked concerned.

Sabo smiled fondly at her “Don’t worry” He lowered his head “I’ll always return to you” he whispered against her lips before kissing her lovingly “Stay safe and watch over Luffy”


(Name) kept watching Sabo’s figure disappearing in the distance blushing as she processed everything that happened between them. And she couldn’t fight the stupid smile.


Yes. They couldn’t recover those 10 years.


But the (h/c) haired woman knew… They would definitely made up for them.
Because I love Luffy and Ace so... why not Sabo too?
