A moment like this wasn’t something he’d take lightly. He smiled softly, meeting Law’s gaze. “I’ll read this later... Not just because I don't want to make you uncomfortable, but… I think I’d probably get a little too emotional to keep teasing you.” With his free hand, Ace picked up the knife +

Ace's eyes widen slightly as Law lights the candle, the flickering glow casting soft shadows on his face and revealing the faintest blush on his cheeks. For a moment, he’s at a loss for words—a rare occurrence. His gaze shifts between the candle, the cake, and finally Law, an undeniable +

He tilts his head slightly to deepen the connection, as if wanting to etch it into memory. His hand on Law's waist shifts subtly, while the one in his hair tugs gently, just enough to draw a shiver from the other man. When they finally pull apart, Ace keeps his gaze locked on Law's, his +

He meets the brief kiss with his own, a satisfied smile tugging at his lips as they part, though the space between them remains minimal. "I'm glad you liked it. Even if it's something so simple..." Before Law can respond, Ace pulls him in gently but firmly, closing the gap between them. +

Picking up the jewelry carefully, Ace’s usual energy softens into something more genuine. He studies it for a moment, then looks at him with a warm, almost bashful smile. "Wow, Law... this is amazing. I love it, really. Thank you—I’ll wear it all the time, promise. +
