Hi! I'm back! At last!
I missed writing LawLu or even just One Piece prompts! Gosh, I'm so happy.

So I saw this prompt on Tumblr - where I spend most of my time yeah guilty oops - and I don't know, I just talked about it to friends and one of them what would have my OTP thought and then it became obvious I had to write something about it.
Also, I'm maybe (hrm) late but this is for the Christmas Challenge on Tumblr 'Day 1: First impression/meeting'.

Well now all I have to say is just... enjoy!


First Thought


As the man was closing up the mermaids' selling by declaring the last "winner", something crashed into the building provoking chaos among the filthy 'spectators' of the 'show'. They started to panic and scream as some ran to the exit, most certainly believing they were under attack. He, on the other hand, didn't move. Neither did his crew.

A boy's voice came out of this chaos, screaming things to – or with – someone with green hair, and it didn't take long for Law to guess it was the Mugiwara crew's second missing to the reunion. Thus, the other must be his Captain at last?

And then the younger man turned to them, showing his face.

"Oh, so that's you, Mugiwara-ya," he thought, smirking.


Luffy leaned on him, his arms around his waist. He felt his hair, his skin and the heat of his body against his, and he unconsciously relaxed. Although Law would never admit it, he appreciated the other Captain's presence.

"Torao, what are you doing?" he asked.

"Nothing," the Surgeon of Death quietly replied. "Just thinking."

"About what?"

He sighed. He felt Luffy's head leaning on the right, as he usually did when he wasn't getting something or waiting for an explanation.

"Remember our first meeting?"

"No. Yes. Maybe?"

Law chuckled. Of course. He was Luffy, after all.

"Sabaody island. Celestial Dragon punched in the face?"

"That bastard!" Luffy shouted for a second. "I'll never regret this, though."

Of course he wouldn't. One of his friend had been in danger, and he had never been the kind of person to leave his friends behind. Law did know, as he had been victim of this stubbornness of his several times.

"So, what about it?" Luffy asked again.

"When did you realize your soulmate mark appearance?"

It took Luffy a few seconds before he finally answered.

"I don't really know. Back in Amazon Lily, maybe. After I got separated from my nakamas, in their prison. I honestly didn't think about it anym- wait, why are you asking this? How do you know I didn't have the mark before?"

Law sketched a smile.

"Maybe because I didn't have mine before either?"

"Wait wha-"

Of course, they would eventually have talked about it, one day. Law showed him his arm and the sentence written on it:

"Who the fuck is that dude next to the cool bear dressed in orange?"

Luffy stared at it.

"And?"

"I figured it was you," Law simply said, almost shrugging.

"Could have been anyone, you don't get to see a bear like that everyday!" Luffy laughed.

"Maybe."

… Though he doubted everyone would have thought that as they were seeing at Law for the first time. He often heard people calling him "creep", "intimidating", "weird", "strange", but never "dude next to Bepo".

The Heart Pirate's Captain turned to him and looked at him right in the eyes.

"Seriously, you really had to think that? Your first thought about me?"

When Bepo discovered it, he grew so horrible to bear (no pun intended) for an entire month, so proud to be on "Law's new great tattoo". He even dared to say he would gratefully accept to be the best man. The bastard.

"So you're my... what, soulmate?" Luffy suddenly said as if he had just realized it for the first time.

"It appears so."

Wait... 'as if he just realized it for the first time'... what if... he had just confessed having discovered it only at the Kujas island, hadn't he?

"Luffy-ya, you... didn't know?"

"Nah."

Oh man.

"Show me your arm?"

Luffy showed him. "Oh, so that's you, Mugiwara-ya" was written on it. His exact thought the day he'd seen Mugiwara no Luffy, one of the infamous pirates of the new generation.

"'Mugiwara-ya', you never figured out?" Wasn't he the only one calling Luffy that way?

"Well, I didn't really think about it."

He could bet he even had forgotten about it, yeah. He knew his boyfriend way too well.

Boyfriend, gosh. When he thought about how he used to think in the past, and how he didn't believe this soulmate shit and never cared about it, pretty sure he'd never find them – or even never have a soulmate in the first place. Not that it had changed much, though. He remembered saying once to Bepo: "Even more if it meant to be stuck with that guy screaming on every single roof he'd become Pirate King." So much deny.

If he'd known.

"And it was so less cool than Zoro's or Sanji's..." Luffy complained. "I mean, 'What's this swords-algea doing in my restaurant?' and 'Does this ero-cook really has a curly-brow?' were absolutely great."

So that was what this was about?

"Sorry for not really controlling my thoughts," he sarcastically apologized.

"Shishishi!" he tightened his arms around him a little more, and Law almost choked, out of breath. "Don't worry, you're still the best Torao~!"

Come to think about it, his mark wasn't that bad, compared to the cook or the swordsman's from Luffy's crew.

Without looking like he was doing so, Law hugged him back.
