Luffy sighed. He was on his way to his classroom when fate messed up and put him in this situation.

On the first day of school too. Darn, Ace will probably grin from ear to ear and do some.. things. Shanks will probably go ballistic and a little possessive towards him. Maybe, but who knows? They're just as unpredictable as an earthquake is.

He just found his other, his soul-mate, his destined one, whatever you want to call it. And said person was currently looking at him as if he was the most disgusting creature that walked on Earth and it ticked him off. Mate or no mate, he was going to kick the red-head's ass if he did anything to him or his friends.

How did he know it was his mate, you ask? A snap of conscience and the hummingbirds in his stomach was quite hard to miss. Not to mention his feline senses completely going overdrive for the guy.

His stomach rumbled and he mutters curses under his breath. Why oh why of all the days he couldn't eat his fill did Ace choose this day to kick him out of the house? Oh right, he was going to be late if he ate more.

"What the hell are you gapin' at? Move fucktard!" The red-head snarled at him, snapping him out of from his thoughts.

" Ahahaha sorry, sorry! I didn't watch where I was going!" A not-so-honest smile plastered on his face as was a tone that was just as… cheerful, made his ears and tail twitch under the clothing that hid them. The red-head didn't notice though, so it was good enough.

Jeez, he should ask Robin how to lie. If his ears and tail were out in the open, then his lies and fake smiles were clear as day.

Getting back on track, he stepped aside and let the grumpy one pass.

He couldn't help but sniff the air when the red-head was close enough and almost blushed. The scent was intoxicating, very very intoxicating. He'll latch on his mate and sniff him all day if he'd let him.

A tinge of pink colored Luffy's cheeks as he realized what he was thinking and quickly ran to his room that was already in sight. The slam of the door echoed in his ears but he was too busy cooling his face down that he didn't notice all the looks thrown his way.

Facing down he went to the furthest corner of the classroom, where an empty seat waited for him and sat down. He can't believe that he just thought of that. He wasn't even that kind of person for Kami's sake!

A nudge to his side brought him back to reality and realized that the whole class was looking at him expectantly. Imaginary question marks appeared above his head as he tilts it to the side, silently asking. More question marks appeared as most of the class blushed while others awkwardly coughed and looked away.

The teacher managed to understand him and repeated what he said earlier "Please introduce yourself to the class, transferee-kun."

The question marks popped comically while Luffy grins in understanding, not bothering to ask how the old man knew he was a transfer student. Standing up he introduced himself in a cheerful way "Heya! Nice to meet you! My name is Monkey D. Luffy and I love meat!" Completely unaware of the misunderstanding he caused as the boys choked on their spit while the girls blushed and giggled.

Luffy sat down as the introduction moved on from a person to another, he was so bored! Meeting new people were nice but he had nothing to do in his seat while a classmate shared boring details.

But really, the only interesting detail for Luffy is either food or adventure.

Their homeroom teacher introduced himself as Silvers Rayleigh. He was funny and Luffy liked him. He had stories which amazed the class, Luffy included, and managed to draw interesting reactions from them.

Except for a guy with a fluffy black and white hat though, Luffy noted but he got lost in sensei's story. So he didn't bother with details much.

A shrill ring forced Rayleigh to stop his story and Luffy whined, it was too interesting for it to stop there! He protested with the others, the story must go on!

"Sorry class but its recess time and I'm hungry, a few minutes wouldn't kill you, you know?" Rayleigh said jokingly but Luffy was already running through the halls as soon as he said recess, heading for a place that Usopp showed him the other day. Their base as he claimed it.

Food! Finally some food!

He ran like a cheetah, not caring that he passed by his crush or the way the red-haired looked hot in his uniform.

.

.

It was only when he was eating did he realize that he thought of that and he immediately choked on his food, banging his chest in attempt to spit it out. Zoro was quick to move and gave him a glass of water. He drank it while Zoro patted him at the back.

"Luffy, eat slowly you idiot! The food's not going anywhere!" Sanji shouted angrily at him and he apologized quietly, slowing his pace in a normal one.

He shouldn't really think of the red-head like that. It was unhealthy, very much so. He nibbled on his food, tastes bland though, as his thoughts once again wondered to the red-head.

His hair looked spiky, held up by a pair of goggles. If he were to run his hair through it, would it be soft? Or was it really spiky? Or maybe it was spikey yet soft? And those muscles, does he train? Is he strong?

A quiet Luffy was unrealistic. A normal-eating Luffy was alien. But a quiet Luffy and a normal-eating Luffy screamed either apocalypse or an imposter. The gang ate stiffly, exchanging looks with each other except Robin with a knowing gleam in her eyes.

Usopp couldn't take it anymore and held the fork threateningly at Luffy and shouted "Alright imposter, who are you and what did you do to Luffy?!" He posed to look brave but failed miserably because of his shaking legs. Chopper joined in and held his fork out too.

Usopp's shout made Luffy jump in his place and looked at his best-friends like they lost their minds.

"What are you talking about Usopp? I'm still me!" He reacted, of course he was himself. He just felt a bit weird though.

He looked around and saw the similar expressions except for Robin. Robin then smiled at him, not the I'm-warning-you-smile rather, the I-know-something smile. He tilted his head, what was the big deal with everyone?

He remembered his actions earlier and blushed to the tips of his ears. Bad move.

Everyone's eyes widened at the sight, completely taken aback by the cute expression Luffy had. It was nonexistent to see him blush, let alone this red.

Robin recovered first and asked what everybody had in their mind. "What happened Luffy?" She already knew the answer but she was in a slightly sadistic mood today and just wanted Luffy to speak out loud.

"I- I didn't meet my mate or- or anything!" He completely blurted out, and blushes a bit more as he realizes his mistake.

Shock, a thing that is great that it can either make you lose consciousness or do something stupid. Okay that was a stupid definition but hey, I tried. Back to the main stars:

It was quiet, but peace never lasts long as everybody, Robin and Luffy excluded, shouted all at once.

"EEEeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhh!" Luffy and Robin were pretty sure the whole town heard their friends as they rambled all at once.

Luffy slowly backed away, knowing Nami and Robin would grill information out of him while some of the guys will tease him, and picked some food.

Pretending to be a ninja wasn't quite successful as Robin pointed out that he was trying to get away. He pouted, Robin was always tricky!

"Senchou-san, Are you, perhaps, trying to get away?" As soon as her sentence was done, Zoro and Sanji tackled Luffy to the ground, Usopp, Chopper and Nami hit them in the head, while Brook and Franky said it wasn't (super) good to try and escape. She giggled behind her hand, amusement written all over her face.

"Robin!~" And as her captain whined, she half-heartedly apologizes, it was just too good to pass up.

"Details. Now." Nami practically demanded. She never knew it was going to be this soon! But it'll probably be good to know, after all there's always a way to get some money.

Luffy sighed and began to talk about every single thing that happened.

xxX Meanwhile at another location in school Xxx

"Tch, stupid kid" Killer silently sighed as Kidd bitched about a boy he bumped earlier that day.

Then again, why didn't his friend beat the 'stupid kid' after the crossed paths twice.

That was new. And having a greater understanding and sensitivity among teens, he quickly understood why. Usually, Kidd would beat anyone to a pulp or at least do some physical damage for bumping in to him or just looked at the wrong way.

So Killer was intrigued, wondering what this boy had to make Kidd like a tsundere.

"Why don't we give him a welcome to school present?" Wire asked, a crazed grin on his face.

A look of hesitation and concern for the boy flashed through Kidd's face so fast Killer almost missed it.

"No, brat's not worth my time" Kidd huffed and walked ahead of them.

The others exchanged looks. That was new, Kidd never passed a beating before. Shrugging, they continued to move on, thinking Kidd was at one of his mood swings.

Then again, almost being the key word. Killer saw it clear and vivid. And his best-friend's action just supported his now-not-crazy theory.

Eustass "Captain" Kidd, a man feared throughout their school, a man who beat others up for sadistic pleasure, a bastard (and the list could go on and on and on) was in love.

A theory that will get himself killed. Killer almost snorted at the irony.

He's sure of one thing though, things are going to be so much more interesting.

xxX At another location of the school Xxx

Shachi had no problem laughing his ass off together with Penguin and Bepo as they looked at Law who looked like the apocalypse were happening because of them.

Oh, this was such a good blackmail material he wouldn't mind handing his soul over! Just not Hanny though, he'll never trade Hanny.

Yes, he named his shades. If you have a problem with that, file a report worth a mountain for all he cares.

Anyway, back to the topic. The ever-so-cool Trafalgar Law, soon to be Surgeon of Death (courtesy of Penguin), was acting like a girl who was in denial with her feelings.

He never thought this day would happen, but now that it did, he doesn't mind. At. all.

"Shut up! I do not have interest with the transfer student!" Law hisses at them.

But hell and high heaven, he was having such a blast! He felt like a 4-year old high on sugar again.

As expected, Bepo apologizes and imaginary thunder clouds appear above his head. He and Penguin shares a look and they both smirk. He'll go first "Bad, bad Law. Picking on the weak, where's your mighty act, good sir?" He clicks his tongue a few times, making "tsks" sounds, the act complete with him shaking his head. He was rewarded with a twitch from Law.

Penguin wraps an arm around Bepo's shoulder and loudly comforted him "it's alright Bepo, we're here for you. After all." Bepo brightens immediately and they share a smile. Penguin quickly whispers something in Bepo's ears before turning to Shachi and nods.

"Isn't that a blush?" Both Shachi and Penguin stated. Law blushed harder and they almost laughed but controlled themselves for the meantime, letting Jean and Jambarl laugh.

"You're both dead." Law hisses, clearly at his breaking point. And it was Penguin and Shachi's job to push him over.

"Yes, yes. And you're in denial." Shachi knows this would cost him his life, but he doesn't give a flying fuck. And besides Penguin will go down with him in hell so it's not that bad. Who knows, maybe they can troll Satan.

Law's face darkened, his brain working overtime for the punishment of two soon-to-be-dead idiots.

Penguin slightly gulps in fear but seeing Law's angry and flustered face was so worth it. He and Shachi exchange one last smirk as the last phase of their plan was carried out by two brave soldiers who were going to painfully suffer.

"After all, a tsundere Law is a very adorable and cute Law" they cooed... and they ran like the hounds of hell were after their flesh, bones and soul in a pack.

Law started to run after them. But he tripped. He fucking tripped.

Reason? Bepo who was currently running like a professional athlete. Bepo tripped him. Bepo. He was going to skin that motherfucker alive.

And yet despite the murderous look he had on his face, the remaining guys laughed and left him in the dust, literally.

Forget skinning Bepo alive, they were all going to end up in his examination table and be cut open like pigs without the help of anesthesia. And then, he'll put them in one boiling pot while listening to their screams with a smile. But to do that, he first needed to capture them, dead or alive.

xxXxx

Tsundere- acts like he/she doesn't like someone when it's actually the opposite or in other words, playing hard to get.

Sensei- teacher

-san is a sort of Japanese thing, look it up in google if you're that interested, but all I know is that they (the Japanese) say it after a name of someone.

I know I have another story at hand but I just had to get this out of my head. I'm very sorry *Bepo mode*

Perona: Since the ugly girl [ hey!] is too busy sulking, I'll say it. She knows it is very bad to curse. But please to those who disagree, there's a rating for a specific reason. Use the muscle in your head that you call a brain-

*smack*

Me: I am very sorry, again. What she was trying to say was, I know it's bad to curse and it's going to bite me in the a$$ later but my writings depend on the mood. And school is approaching like a shark to a flesh and it pisses me off. Not to mention my stomach hurts like he-

*smack*

Perona: *holds up a hand coolly* YOU started it first ugly girl. Now I'm going to finish what you obviously failed to do so. She is saying that she is open for-

*slap*

Perona: Oh that is IT! Negative Hollow!

*boom* *crash*

Monet: *giggles* they're trying to say reader-san, that author-chan is open for suggestions and you can point out her mistakes so she can improve writing for you. Sweet isn't it? *smiles*

*a roar of a tiger* "Kyaaah! Where the hell did you get that?!" "somewhere!" *crash* "don't just stand there, RUN!" "AAAAAAAhhhhh!"

Monet: *sighs* please do excuse me, I need to help them.

*swish* -BEEP-
