Anonymous requested: Hello! I am here to request one of your amazing writings. Scenario or headcanons, either one, as long as it's easy for you. Characters: Whitebeard and Shanks ; they going to confess there love to s/o, but them realize that a other man are flirting whit her and they get a bit jealous, and without realizing it, they unwittingly confesses themself. Thank you very much if you do this, keep up the good work ❤!
This was so cute! Thank you for requesting it! It is so hard to see them jealous on purpose (like actually possess the trait) but I can definitely get behind unintentional jealousy when they are so ready to confess. I hope you enjoy these scenarios, Lovely!
Shanks, Whitebeard x Female Reader
Warnings: Fluff, a tad of accidental jealousy, awkwardness, as stated in the rules Reader is always the character’s age unless stated otherwise but for Whitebeard’s part I imagine Reader is close to Marco’s age only because I have Marco as the trigger for Whitebeard so age gap between reader and whitebeard
Words: 1008
Shanks-
Pfft. Shanks does not get jealous. How dare Benn suggest he would. Why would he? He has you wrapped around his finger. He has you right where he wants to-
That is what he thinks. He knows it is far from the truth. That you just tolerate his flirting, but you also do flirt back, so he holds on hope! That and you must like him! Otherwise, why would you join his crew when you have nothing in it for you?
Okay- Maybe Shanks is a bit confused but he does know he is ready to confess to you. The gal of his dreams. He is ready. He can feel the blood pumping through his veins. God- Why is actually nervous? He never gets nervous!
Shanks is a natural Casanova.
He is a professional when dealing with women yet… As soon as his eyes land on your figure his heart stops.
The butterflies in his stomach feel like they are turning into a tornado. You are laughing that angelic laugh he loves so much and that you tend to dislike. His nerves are on fire but now his blood is not only pumping with adrenaline but boiling at the scene before him.
Why does Yasopp have his arm so casually wrapped around your shoulder?
And why are you leaning your head against him once your laughter starts to cease?
Oh hell no. This is not happening.
His charm is back in full but he knows he probably looks a tad deranged as he walks up to the both of you- Benn no doubt watching this scene somehow hiding among the shadows. That is why the little jerk brought up jealousy. He knew how comfortable you were being with Yasopp right now!
“Hey Cap’, what is wro-“ Shanks cuts you off by casually grabbing your hand.
Of course, with the utmost care in the world when doing so as he pulls you to him. Taking his hand off you he wraps his arm around your shoulder and says confidently (with that tinge of jealously laced in his voice that he somehow can’t hide).
“We are going on a date- SO Yasopp I hope you enjoyed holding her while you could because she is from now on my woman,” Shanks states.
You and Yasopp share a look before the two of you burst out in laughter. Shanks is utterly confused until you are quick to recompose yourself and smile at him.
“Yasopp was just telling me how you were going to confess to me soon and how you would do it! It was not exact, but it was pretty spot on! He meant no harm and I assure you, Shanks, I return your feelings in full,” You say your smile soft and god-
So perfect to him.
“I knew that!” Shanks says now laughing off that feeling he felt.
That started the rounds of laughter as Benn and Lucky Roux are quick to redo the scene of him walking up to you and wrapping his arm on you. Shanks can’t hide the blush or the pout as he looks away and you laugh again but this time in a soothing tone reassure him.
“We can go on that date anytime you want.”
Whitebeard (Edward Newgate)-
Whitebeard is always on the deck- Watching with careful eyes as his sons either mess around, train, or play cards. It is usually always fun to see how his children think however- Ever since his love interest has joined the crew, things have been slightly different.
Of course, (Name) always spends her time with either him or one of the commanders and he is no fool. He can tell that she returns his feelings, but he does want to make it official. He just does not know when, but it will be soon.
He frankly does not want to wait any longer than he has to. He is old and dying- Has been for the past few years but his health is worse since he does not listen to the nurses on the ship. So he wants to confess his love to (Name) and have it be official despite not knowing how much longer he has.
It will be worth it in the end because he has seen her own longing looks. How much she loves him.
That is the goal until one day- He feels something… Odd after seeing (Name) and Marco together. It was nothing weird too, Whitebeard just watches the two and notices how close they seem to be. Not emotionally but quite physically, they are touching shoulders.
He… Surprisingly hates how much of a good couple they could make. Even more so since they are around each other’s ages. A sharp crunchy sound stops all the chatter on the deck, and everyone stares at Whitebeard. He simply raises an eyebrow before he feels liquid run down his hand.
Ah- He just broke a beer bottle. Great.
Marco analyzes the situation and Whitebeard tries to keep his expression neutral-
“Pops- Are you glaring at Marco?” Ace questions as he and quite a few others notice that Whitebeard had been giving the favorite child the stink eye.
Oh- He feels his face relax immediately at the question. Ace and Thatch burst out in laughter as they look at you and Marco.
You both have smiles on your own faces and Whitebeard feels out of the loop. You make your way over to Whitebeard- To clean up his hand while Marco hums and speaks up.
“Pops- You do realize I would not go after your woman, right?”
Whitebeard replies, “The hell you talking about, brat?”
Your cheeks are red as Marco finally states what the whole crew knows about. “Pops, you are not really subtle with your looks. We know you have a thing for (Name) and she returns your feelings. You didn’t need to say anything.”
Whitebeard stares long and hard until he sighs. “Damn brats. If it was obvious you should have told me so I could have said something sooner.”
