As one of Ace's most prized crew mates, you helped him with most of his adventures. Of course he'd always repay you with various treats like going out for something to eat.

He seemed to do that a lot...

The Spade Pirates were currently in the middle of a battle with a Marine ship, Ace almost burning the ship with his fire powers, when he looked over at you as you fought hard. Before someone could get a good hit on you, he'd tackle you to the ground, saving you.

"You okay?" He'd ask, which you quickly respond with a nod. But before you got up to get back into battle- "Great. Love you." He'd suddenly admit, his eyes widening as he'd help you up and hid his face behind his hat.
