The story is in Laws POV

"I love you." I said.

It was easy to say those words when I was alone in the bathroom in front of a mirror. I have been practising for about half an hour already. For half an hour I have been locked in the bathroom of the straw hats ship. For half an hour I have been imagining Luffy-yas cute face in front of me. And for half an hour I have been trying to come up with the best way to confess to Luffy-ya.

Sighing I dropped my head, hands grabbing both sides of the sink. It's useless. I can't believe how weak I am. I can't even confess to the one I love. I'm such a coward. While I was slowly falling in a deep state of depression, I heard someone knock on the bathroom door.

"Whoever is in the bathroom, could you please hurry it up? The great captain Usopp needs to do some business in there." Usopp shouted from the other side of the door, never stopping hitting his fist on it. Being slightly annoyed about all the noise the straw hats sniper did, I composed myself and went to go unlock the door.

"Hey, I don't have all day you know! Be aware that I the great captain Usopp, sniper of the straw hats, captain of 8000 man and mor-" 'Click' "Finally! It was about time. What were you doing in the bathroom so long anywa-" but the sniper stopped talking when he saw me coming out of the bathroom.

"L-Law!" Usopp said with a shaky voice. Actually his entire body was shaking. "S-sorry I didn't k-know i-it was y-you in the b-bathroom. P-please take your t-time, n-no need t-to hurry. I will j-just go e-elsewhere." With that the straw hats sniper run off, leaving me alone.

I always knew that I was intimidating, for my appearance and for what I have done in these past years, but still. The snipers reaction was a little too extreme. How did he survive till now if he is scared just to be in front of me? There are a lot scarier people in the world than I am. Anyway I was done confessing to the bathroom mirror, so I decided to go for a walk around the ship. After walking for less than five minutes and thinking of what just happened a few minutes ago, a thought came to my mind.

What if Luffy-ya already was in a relationship? What if he was deeply in love with someone else? What then? The real point of this alliance is for me to be near Luffy-ya. I used the four imperators as an excuse to form an alliance with him. But if Luffy-ya already has someone he loves, then all of this is useless! ...Wait! No, it's not! Even if he loves someone else right now, I can still make him fall in love with me. …But Luffy-ya isn't the kind of person that would abandon someone for his selfishness. …However Luffy-ya is also a person that always listens to what his heart says. So if Luffy-ya falls in love with me, he will certainly become my boyfriend! …My boyfriend. It just sounds so right.

While I was daydreaming about Luffy-ya I was still walking around. I didn't notice where I was until I heard a female voice greeting me. "Hello, Mr. Trafalgar." I snapped out of my daydream and look around to find the one who greeted me. I found the ship archaeologist smiling at me. "Hi." was my short reply. I didn't really want to start a conversation with her now. Right now I just wanted to think about my cute Luffy-ya.

Looking around I noticed that I was on the ships 3th floor, where the main mast and the gardens was. I have been walking for a while now, how can I still be this close to the bathroom? While I was thinking how that was possible, my thoughts were interrupted again by the archaeologist.

"Mr. Trafalgar. May I ask you, what were you thinking just now that made you walk around the library multiple times?"

"Excuse me?" I asked her, not really understanding what she was asking me.
