Laws of Attraction - Part 1

The heart pirates and the strawhat pirates had made an alliance with the belief that with their combined strength they could bring down the yonko Kaido. They had captured Caesar, destroyed the SAD room, contacted Doflamingo and demanded his resignation of being a Shichibukai if further negotiations were to be continued. All they had to do now was to wait for the next morning's newspaper. In the meantime, Sunny was already on its way to Dressrosa. It was evening and everyone had just finished a delicious dinner made by the ship's cook. The sun had set a time ago and the sky was filled with shining stars.

It had been a long day, but nothing could bring down the energy and enthusiasm of the strawhat pirates. The skeleton started to play one of his hits. Everyone joined in, sang, danced and did all kinds of other stuff. Trafalgar Law stayed and kept them company for a while, just for good manners sake. Soon, it was too much ruckus for him and he excused himself to get some fresh air out on the deck. As lovely as the crew was, there was a limit of how much strawhat-weirdness you could take.

When the Surgeon of Death had left the room, the captain jumped up on the dining table to get everyone's attention.

"So what do you guys think?" Luffy grinned with a big smile. "Tra-guy is nice! It will be an awesome pirate alliance!"

This was the first time the whole crew was really gathered and could talk about the alliance, without Law being there with them.

"He is a cool guy. Nice to have someone normal on the ship. He even helped me with the dishes unlike you bastards," Sanji said and glared at all the male crewmates.

Nami had a dreamy look on her face.

"God, Law is so HOT. Don't you think?" Nami breathed and faced the other woman from their crew.

Sanji dropped a plate on the floor and it smashed into pieces. Robin chuckled.

"I don't mind having him around," Robin calmly answered and rested her jaw on her hands. "He is a bit of an eye candy."

Sanji's mouth hanged open. He tried to get some words out, but just couldn't. His girls, his girls... Stolen to that, that Tra-guy! It didn't take long before the heartbroken love-cook was lying on the floor and mumbling some strange noises. Nobody except Kin'emon bothered to check how he was doing since this was normal for everyone else when another man got Nami-swan's or Robin-chan's attention.

"Even if he is a bit creepy, he is an amazing doctor! It will be nice to have some help on the medical front for once. Maybe he can teach me something!" Choppar jumped from excitement and clapped his hooves together.

Zoro nodded. "I think he is okay. He is a really good swordsman, I would like to do some sparring with him or just sit down and-"

Roronoa stopped when he saw that everyone in the crew was staring at him and lifted up their eyebrows.

"What?"

"You usually don't get along with people so quickly," Nami said accusingly with a smile. "You don't have a thing for him, do you?"

A huge blush covered Zoro's face.

"D-Don't be ridiculous, you stupid woman!"

"Don't you call Nami-swan stupid, you moss-head!" Sanji was back up and glaring at Zoro.

"What did you call me?" Zoro yelled.

The fight between the two was on. Luffy broke out in hysterical laughter at this point, was lying on his back, holding his hands on his stomach and crying from laughter.

When Trafalgar was out on the deck he could not help but to remember the conversation earlier that day. It was when they had been on Punk Hazard, partying and he had just told Smoker they were heading for Green Bit. Then the Vice Admiral had surprised the shit out of Law.

~~~~~Flashback~~~~~

"You know what?" Smoker said as he cleared his throat. "I was really disappointed to see you making an alliance with the strawhats. I hate pirates, but when you became a Shichibukai... I don't know, I couldn't help myself thinking that maybe one day we two could-"

"Stop. Just don't," Law had quickly interrupted and left the marine before he had seen Law's blushing face.

~~~~~End of flashback~~~~~

Trafalgar went to one side of the ship, leaned on the railing and stared at the stars. He was thinking about his crew and hoped that they were doing alright. Suddenly, he heard a noise come from behind, subconsciously he immediately drew his sword and faced the enemy.

"Oh it's only you Mugiwara-ya," Law greeted and put his sword back in place.

"Tra-guy!" Luffy smiled, jumped up and sat on the railing. "Shishishi! You know, my crew really likes you!"

Well, that came out of nowhere. Law didn't expect a comment like that and didn't quite know where to go with that. After a while, he cleared his throat and answered the boy.

"Well, that is good. If we get along there is a higher chance of us succeeding with the plan and-"

Law stopped when Luffy's arms were suddenly encircling Law in a huge hug and the rubber boy's face was buried in Law's chest.

"What are you doing?"

Luffy let out a calm sigh and rubbed his face deeper in Law's sweater, as if trying to inhale his scent completely.

"I like you too," the rubber boy said cheerfully. "You saved my life at Marineford when I was almost dead."

"A simple 'thank you' would do just fine," Trafalgar answered awkwardly and twisted in his spot, trying to get out of Luffy's grip. It was making him really uncomfortable at this point.

"Thank you," Luffy said and he hugged Law even tighter than before so it was difficult for the other to breathe.

"Okay, that's enough!" Law said and finally managed to get out of the rubber boy's embrace.

Luffy looked confused and Law was honestly shocked with his own sudden outburst, but who could blame him?

"What's the matter?" Luffy asked sadly and pouted in disappointment.

Law knew the boy was simple-minded, it was not a hard nut to crack. So really, he shouldn't be surprised that the boy knew nothing about personal space. He was surprised though, with the boy's sad face expression when Law had pushed him away.

"Nothing, I..." Law started and scratched the back of his head. "I will go to sleep now Mugiwara-ya."

Luffy's face changed to his normal grin again. "Okay, see you tomorrow!"

Law nodded and quickly made his way back to everyone else.

Trafalgar saw Cyborg Franky leading the samurai from the Wano Country to some room. When he saw Law approaching, he immediately stopped.

"Aw! I super-forgot," he said to Law a bit horrified. "We gave the extra bed to the samurai and the kid is sleeping with Nami and Robin. Ahh..."

Franky seemed very upset about this, but soon a smile covered his face.

"Nothing to worry about," he finally said and put a reassuring hand on Trafalgar's shoulder. "We can share my bed."

Hm? Did Law hear that right? Not to mention that his suggestion was absolutely ridiculous since he was the biggest one of the entire crew and the two of them would never fit in one bed, but... Did he honestly think that Law would want to share a bed? With some kind of pervert who only wore speedos at that? Law sighed and gently brushed off Franky's hand from his shoulder.

"I'll keep watch," he answered as calmly as he could. "Someone has to anyway and we don't know what could happen at night."

"Right you are! D-Doflamingo could come at us at any moment!" The boy with the long nose had appeared out of nowhere. "I'll keep watch with you. S-So don't worry, you'll be safe around me!"

Why on earth was Usopp clinging to his arm for dear life? God, he just wished this night would be over fast.

"Me too!" The reindeer demanded and clinged to Law's other arm.

Trafalgar tried to calm down. Tomorrow would surely be a better day.
