Chapter 11: Uta

(Uta POV) Location: Wano

I sighed. And I sighed again, but it was a lot more dramatic this time. It's been really, really, really boring here ever since Crow left two weeks ago, and I don't know how much I can take without him being here.

I've been doing nothing but helping King with paperwork. I honestly don't know how the guy does it. It's just endless paperwork...

I can barely do it for an hour straight before the need to move around gets to me. Perhaps I could ask King if I could be an entertainer like the Queen guy.

It would undoubtedly beat going through mountains of paperwork five days a week. Sure, I'd be near that chain-smoking mountain of fat of an All-Star, but he's not too bad so long as I stay out of his way.

"You alright?" King asked.

I looked at the man and gave him a tired smile. "Yeah, just tired."

King gave me a sympathetic and nodded. "I understand. If you want, you can leave early."

"You sure?"

"Yeah, there's not much left to finish. You made sure of that," King replied, making me smirk.

"You're welcome for that...by the way...um, do you think I could be an entertainer?" I asked hesitantly.

King quirked an eyebrow. "Possibly. I'd have to ask Queen," he frowned at saying his name. "But I can't promise anything though. He's not the type to take being outshined well due to his ego, and having heard you sing before; you undoubtedly outclass him when it comes to that," Damn straight, I do!

I nodded in understanding and smiled brightly. "Thanks King!"

He nodded and smiled slightly. "No problem. Now go home and rest."

Not needing to be told twice, I said goodbye, turned around, and left. When I got home, I kicked off my shoes, closed the door, cooked dinner, and ate on the couch, watching whatever was on TV.

While enjoying myself, I thought about Crow, and my heart fluttered. I still can't believe we've been together for two years and will have a child or children of our own in six months.

The thought of me being a mother used to scare the shit out of me for a few weeks, but now I'm not as worried due to our standing.

We don't have to worry about money or finding someone to watch the kids when Crow and I need alone time or when we're sent out on missions since we could have Ulti, Page, Yamato, and if we're desperate, King or Kaido watch over them.

Sure, it would be nice if our kids didn't have to grow up around one of the most dangerous pirate crews in the world and weren't forced to become pirates themselves, but that's the hand we were unfortunately dealt with.

At least our kids will be trained well, and if what Crow said was true, Kaido will let us keep all the powerful Devil Fruits from the mission he was given so that they can be given to our children when they're old enough.

While the thought of our kids having to one day fight left a sour taste in my mouth and terrified me, at least they'll be prepared when the moment comes.

Speaking of kids, I wonder if we'll have a boy, a girl, or both. If I had to choose, I would want a boy, but if we're lucky, I'll give birth to both genders.

What they would look like also came to mind. I know they'll mostly inherit their looks from their father for obvious reasons, but I wonder how much of my features they will take.

Will they have my purple eyes? My bi-colored hair? My lips? My eyelashes? My cheekbones? There are so many possibilities, and I can't help but be excited about it!

Too bad I'll have to wait a while to find out, but I know the wait will be worth it. Our babies are going to be so cute!!!

After I stopped gushing about our soon-to-be kids, I sighed as I just remembered I wouldn't be the only woman Crow would have adorable babies with, thanks to that asshole Kaido. The thought of Crow seeing and having kids with other women made me conflicted.

On the one hand, my urge to kill a stupid bitch that makes a move on him and keep him all to myself is high, but on the other hand, the image of him dominating another woman and showing the bitch who Crow really belongs to is pretty hot.

His insane stamina also plays a role in my predicament because as much as I love getting the soul fucked out of me, I can barely keep up, and it makes the idea of having more than one woman in our sex life a lot more appealing.

Ugh...for now, I'll just let things play out. Once I was done with my food, I cleaned the dishes and headed off to bed, but I didn't immediately fall asleep as Crow wasn't in bed with me and holding me in his strong arms. I hope he returns soon, as I could barely sleep without him.

I wonder how his mission is going.

(Timeskip: The Next Day)

"So King told me you wanna be an entertainer," Queen stated, and I nodded.

"Yeah, I need something to do besides doing paperwork, sitting around and watching TV. I also just miss signing," I admitted.

The mountain of fat that disguises itself as a man scratched underneath his triple chin and was deep in thought. After a few moments of thinking, he gave his answer.

"Alright, can you start in three hours?" he asked, and I nodded enthusiastically.

"Yes, I can!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!" this was going to be so much fun!

"Yeah, yeah, now get out of here," he waved off dismissively. "You're disturbing me from my lunch, Candy Cane."

A tick mark formed on my head. Did this fat fuck call me a candy cane?!! Ugh, Shanks and his crew already called me that enough as it was when I was a part of their group!

I don't need another pirate crew calling me that!! The bastard's lucky I can't strangle him for calling me that! I'm so putting laxatives in your food whenever I get the chance!!

"Asshole," I muttered low enough that he didn't hear me.

I let out a sigh and left the area. I returned at the time Queen set and got ready to perform. However, I didn't come alone, as King decided to tag along, which was nice.

"Alright, Uta, you're up," Queen announced, and I quickly got on the stage.

Once in the middle of the stage, I looked at the audience and spotted King. He gave me a nod and thumbs up in support, which made me smile.

Considering his general demeanor, it's still hard to believe he can be nice, but it wasn't an unwelcome surprise.

Anyways...

I took a few breaths before starting. I looked at the crew behind me and gestured that I was ready, and they gave me a thumbs up. I turned around, and the music slowly began to start.

There's a stranger in my bed

There's a pounding in my head

Glitter all over the room

Pink flamingos in the pool

I smell like a minibar

DJ's passed out in the yard

Barbies on the barbecue

This a hickey or a bruise?

Pictures of last night ended up online, I'm screwed

Oh, well

It's a blacked-out blur, but I'm pretty sure it ruled

Damn

Last Friday night

Yeah, we danced on tabletops, and we took too many shots

Think we kissed, but I forgot last Friday night

Yeah, we maxed our credit cards and got kicked out of the bar

So we hit the boulevard last Friday night

We went streaking in the park, skinny-dipping in the dark

Then had a ménage à trois last Friday night

Yeah, I think we broke the law, always say we're gonna stop-op, oh-whoa

It didn't take long for the audience to get into the song as they danced along and cheered me on, with Ulti being the most enthusiastic of my supporters.

But this Friday night

Do it all again

But this Friday night

Do it all again

Trying to connect the dots

Don't know what to tell my boss

Think the city towed my car

Chandelier is on the floor

Ripped my favorite party dress

Warrant's out for my arrest

Think I need a ginger ale

That was such an epic fail

Pictures of last night ended up online, I'm screwed

Oh, well

It's a blacked-out blur, but I'm pretty sure it ruled

Damn

Last Friday night

Yeah, we danced on tabletops, and we took too many shots

Think we kissed, but I forgot last Friday night

Yeah, we maxed our credit cards and got kicked out of the bar

So we hit the boulevard last Friday night

We went streaking in the park, skinny-dipping in the dark

Then had a ménage à trois last Friday night

Yeah, I think we broke the law, always say we're gonna stop-op, oh-whoa

But this Friday night

Do it all again (do it all again)

But this Friday night

Do it all again (do it all again)

But this Friday night

Last Friday night

Yeah, we danced on tabletops, and we took too many shots

Think we kissed, but I forgot last Friday night

Yeah, we maxed our credit cards and got kicked out of the bar

So we hit the boulevard last Friday night

We went streaking in the park, skinny-dipping in the dark

Then had a ménage à trois last Friday night

Yeah, I think we broke the law, always say we're gonna stop-op, oh-whoa

But this Friday night

Do it all again

After finishing the song, the audience begged for more, and I happily obliged them.

End.
