I Will Love You, Forever
From the very first moment, Nojiko knew what was happening. It was always the same, whenever Nami returned. She knew this would happen. Like it always had. It didn't surprise her. It didn't surprise Nojiko to hear terrible noises coming from her house. It didn't surprise her to see Nami in her house, furiously trashing everything around her. Everything was always the same. Nojiko quickly ducked and only barely avoided a plate flying in her direction. It smashed into the wall behind her and shattered into tiny pieces. Yes, everything was just as always. Nojiko calmly made her way to Nami and caught her wrist just when she was about to throw another plate. Nojiko lowered her voice into a soft whisper. "Don't you think you broke enough things already, Nami?" Her voice was gentle but firm. For Nami, it was the final trigger. She lowered her arm and the plate slipped from her grasp. Just before it hit the floor, Nami collapsed on her knees. The plate touched the ground and shattered into many fragments, joining countless fragments already scattered on the floor. And then, almost like a response to the shattered plate, Nami cried. She cried with all her might, cried out all pent up frustration, she cried and cried. For the whole time, Nojiko stood silently next to her. After countless minutes passed, Nami finally stopped crying and turned to Nojiko. "I'm sorry sis. Looks like I broke your things again." She mustered a weak smile in apology but it was truly a pitiful sight. Nojiko lowered herself next to Nami and smiled in a reassuring way. "Don't worry about that old stuff. I wanted to get rid of it anyway." It was obviously a lie but few broken plates and cups couldn't even begin to compare to Nami's suffering. Nojiko knew it well.
Nami sat at the table, sipping tea from the cup in her hands. After Nami calmed down, Nojiko picked up two cups that weren't destroyed and made a tea with some tea bags she had in her cupboard. Nami could only stare down in embarrassment as she slowly drank her tea. She was angry at herself. After a long time, she returns to her beloved village and the first thing she does is break things in her own sister's house. And Nojiko acts like nothing happened, serving her tea. Nami felt like her insides are tied into knots. She couldn't help it. The house always reminds her of the one thing she can never have. Nami stared intently into the floor, like she was trying to make a hole there. With a trembling voice, she asked: "Hey, sis. If… If you had someone you love… and you knew you could never be with that person, no matter what… would you be able to keep on living?" Nami's vision started to blur but she held her tears. Without moving a muscle, she awaited Nojiko's answer. Because she was looking at the floor the whole time, she didn't see that Nojiko raised herself from her chair and now stood by Nami's side. It surprised her to suddenly hear Nojiko's voice so close to her. "Of course I would. I still have you, don't I?" Nojiko's words pierced Nami's heart like a hot knife. It hurt, it hurt so much. Nami was only barely able to hold her tears. However, Nojiko continued the assault on her heart. "Nami, tell me who is it. Tell me that person's name. We might be able to do something together. Come on, tell me." Nojiko spoke calmly and slowly. Nami only wiggled her head weakly in response. However, that wasn't nearly enough for Nojiko to let up. She continued, not knowing how much she's hurting Nami with her questions. "Come on, Nami. You can't shoulder all your problems alone, you know. I'm here for you. Who is it. Someone you met on your travels?" Nami wiggles her head again and sobs. It hurts. Her chest hurts. Nojiko doesn't stop. "Is it somebody from your companions? Somebody from this village? Or is it possibly someone from Arlong's—" Nojiko couldn't finish the sentence. Nami couldn't hold it anymore. The pain in her heart is too great. She rose from her chair and turned to Nojiko. Before her sister could react, Nami locked her lips with Nojiko's in a kiss. It was short but passionate. It was a lover's kiss. Nami quickly pulled out from stunned Nojiko and ran for the door. However, before she could reach the exit, something stopped her. She looked over her shoulder and saw Nojiko holding her wrist. Nami pulled and wriggled her arm but Nojiko didn't budge an inch. Her hair cast an eerie shadow on her face. "Are you serious? Did you really mean it?" Nojiko's voice is harsh and cold. Nami tried to escape once again but Nojiko's grip didn't weaken. "Let go—" "DO YOU REALLY MEAN IT?" Nojiko suddenly shouted with a forcefulness that greatly startled Nami. Tears started pouring from Nami's eyes. "Of course I meant it! Of course I was serious! I… I…" Nami couldn't finish the sentence. She could only look in amazement at Nojiko. Nami expected her to be angry, maybe sad but she didn't expect this. Nojiko was crying with a large smile on her face. Before Nami could figure out what was happening, Nojiko pulled on Nami's arm and she stumbled right into Nojiko's embrace. "Nami! You don't know how long have I dreamed of this!" Nojiko cries uncontrollably just like Nami did but her tears are one of happiness. "Nami, I always, always thought only about you. I wanted to tell you so many times but I always feared you would hate me for it. I—" Nami placed a finger on Nojiko's lips. No further words are necessary. A smile spread on Nami's face. She embraced Nojiko tightly and pulled her into a kiss. Her tongue invaded Nojiko's mouth and tasted her saliva. It didn't take long for Nojiko to counter-attack. Their tongues twisted in incredible dance as they desperately hungered for each other. After many minutes passed, their lips parted, leaving a thin trail of saliva connecting them. Nami smiles at Nojiko who returns her smile with a wide grin. A huge shadow has been lifted from both of their hearts.
Sometime later on, Luffy managed the incredible: He beat Arlong and his crew. The whole village celebrated long into the night. A huge feast was prepared and of course, the straw-hat crew were all present. Except for one member. "Hey, old guy! Where's Nami?" Luffy called to the mayor of the village. His somewhat rude manner didn't bother the mayor at all and he replied with a smile. "I thought she was with you." Luffy frowned at the mayor's response but quickly broke into a smile. "Oh well, her loss. And now: FOOD!" Luffy shouted and stretched his hand to grab a piece of chicken lying on Usopp's plate.
In the meantime, Nami and Nojiko were lying on the floor of their old hideout they made in the trunk of a huge tree when they were kids. Their hands were joined as they lied there, quietly staring into each others eyes. Nami was the first to break the silence. "It's finally over, isn't it, sis?" Nojiko nodded her head. "Yes, it's finally over. And with that…" She rolled over Nami and stopped her face only few inches from Nami's. "Don't mind if I do." Nojiko whispered and kissed Nami passionately. Nami felt Nojiko's tongue in her mouth. However, that was not all. Nojiko placed her hand firmly on Nami's breast and started massaging it. The sudden sensation startled Nami and she wanted to scream in surprise but Nojiko's mouth prevented her from doing so. Without letting up, Nojiko slipped her hand in Nami's shirt and bra, groping her naked flesh. Nami gasped and sighed in pleasure. She didn't know she could feel such feelings. Nojiko lifted her mouth from Nami, breaking their kiss and grinned mischievously. She grabbed the hem of Nami's shirt and took it off Nami in one smooth move. "Wait, what are you… Ah!" Nami gasped as Nojiko licked the area of her breasts. Nojiko slipped one hand in Nami's bra and pinched her nipple slightly. Nami squealed in ecstasy and arched her back. Nojiko used this to quickly undo Nami's bra and throw it away. She quickly lowered her head and licked around Nami's areola while using one hand to massage her other breast. Nami could do nothing more than breathe in quick, irregular gasps. Nojiko started sucking on Nami's nipple and pinched the other one with her hand. Nojiko continued to stimulate Nami when she suddenly screamed in surprise and raised her head from Nami's breast. Nojiko looked at Nami who was grinning widely. "That's not fair sis. I want you to feel good too." Nami slipped her hand in Nojiko's pants and rubbed her panties. Before too long, Nojiko's panties were completely soaked. In a quick move, Nami topple Nojiko down. She scuttled on the floor to Nojiko and stripped both her pants and panties. "Now it's my turn." Nami placed her head in between Nojiko's legs and used her fingers to rub Nojiko's slit. Gasps and moans escaped Nojiko's throat. "You're really sensitive down here, aren't you?" Nami grabbed and pinched the little protrusion. Nojiko's breath became accelerated. Unable to endure the pleasure, Nojiko stripped her shirt and bra and started stroking her breasts. Nami sped up her fingers and started licking Nojiko's crevice. Nojiko squealed and squirmed, her face red with excitement. She felt climax coming but before she could finish, Nami stopped. Nojiko looked confusedly on her sister but Nami only smiled devilishly. Nami spread Nojiko's leg and inserted her own legs in between. Their little slits glistened with their love juices as they touched each other. "Let's come together." Nami proclaimed to Nojiko cheerfully. Nojiko nodded her head and started to move her body in unison with Nami. Soon, they both moaned and gasped in pleasure. Their breath became shallow and quick. "Nami, I'm going to come!" Nojiko shouted, her voice barely audible from her moaning. "M-Me too!"
"Nami!"
"Nojiko!"
At the same time, they screamed and their bodies shook violently as the wave of ecstasy and pleasure spread through their bodies. For many minutes, their minds were numb from the pleasure. When the waves finally stopped, they collapsed, totally spent. They still gasped quickly, too tired to move. They looked at each other and smiled. Suddenly, Nami's smile wavered. "Nojiko, I have to tell you something. I… I was in bed with another woman." Nami's tears became watery and she feared Nojiko's response. However, Nojiko only laughed lightly. "It doesn't matter. I know. I know you couldn't help it. I know about your condition. I eavesdropped on your checkup with the doctor. Sorry, I'm a bad girl." Nojiko stick out her tongue in a playful way while winking. Nami looked at Nojiko with gaping mouth. This wasn't the answer she was expecting. "But… But…" Nojiko placed her finger on Nami's lips, silencing her. "I love you, Nami. I have always loved you and always will. Nothing can change that." Nojiko brought her lips to Nami's joining them in a tender kiss. Nami stared into the ceiling, dazed by Nojiko's proclamation. That's right. Nojiko loves her and she loves Nojiko. Nothing can change that fact. Nojiko raised her head from Nami's lips and smiled at Nami. And then, she said one sentence that made Nami the happiest being in the whole world. "I will love you, forever."
A/N: So, that's it for the first chapter. The second chapter will deal with Nami/Kaya pairing and also reveal what exactly is Nami's condition. Please don't forget to review. It takes only a few minutes for you but for me, it is invaluable feedback.
