Chapter 2:A Long Road Ahead

Nami woke up around midday about two weeks later. Some of the machines had been removed from her bedside, telling her that her health had improved somewhat. She opened her eyes and groaned. Her whole body felt sore, especially her abdomen and back.

Remembering what Law had told her she decided to take it slow. First making sure she could feel her whole body before slowly sitting up, wiggling her toes to make sure she wasn't paralyzed. It took her about ten minutes to stand up but not without the IV pole to help her stand for the most part. Now came the task of walking. She took a couple of steps and once she was sure she could walk she held onto her IV pole and slowly started to walk, cringing in pain from her back as she made her way to the door.

Before she got too far from her bed the door opened, revealing a big white polar bear in an orange jumpsuit. He looked at Nami, surprised before apologizing and running out of the room. Nami had to think for a minute "Was… Bepo his name?" she tilted her head, wondering to herself. She shrugged and continued her agonizingly slow walk to the door. She was almost there when law appeared in the doorway; behind him was the polar bear again but this time he had a tray of food in his hands- um well paws.

"You shouldn't be walking around on your own Nami… it's dangerous for you to do that… I left this wheelchair for you if you had woken up…" He rolled the chair over and looked at her. Nami frowned.

"I'm just injured not crippled…" she muttered, a pout coming to her face as she glared at the chair. Law sighed and studied Nami for a minute before he took a hold of her chin, making her look at him.

"It's either the chair or you stay in bed and ill tie you to it if I have to… you will have to use a female urinal or a bedpan if the situation calls for it..." He looked her dead in the eyes. As his remained cool and bored hers widened. "You know that I don't lie when it comes to my profession... so what's your choice?"

Nami tried to look away but he held her chin firmly. "F-fine… ill use the stupid chair." She glared at the wheelchair but squeaked when her feet left the ground and she was suddenly on the bed again.

"Before you eat I have to do a few things and ask some questions…" Bepo put the food on the counter and covered it as law's Kikoku appeared. He smirked as he unsheathed it.

Nami's eyes widened and she started to try it get up. Law gently but firmly pushed her back down "This won't hurt a single bit Nam- yai just relax."

All that was heard from the room seconds later was Nami screaming.

She looked up at the ceiling, dazed but feeling better. "You could have warned me that you were going to use your Kikoku…" she started to pout as her head cleared, she turned her head to look at him. Too tired from the stress of what he did.

Law on the other hand had an almost blank expression on his face. His calm demeanor gave away nothing of what he had found. He wrote down his notes and figured out what medicines he would need to help her. He went to his medicine cupboard and opened it, getting various bottles of liquids, leaves and fine powders. Unfortunately the main ingredient was supposed to be fresh and was hard to come by, but with all the loot he got from straw hat he wouldn't have a problem getting it.

"If I did there wouldn't be any fun in the surprise." He smirked and then went back to look at his notes, frowning at something he realized. "It seems that you're allergic to the main ingredient in my medicine… so I have to get an alternative… it isn't easy to come by."

Nami rolled her eyes and sighed "I'll pay you for whatever you need to get so you can be stocked up for a while so don't worry if that's your deal… But I'm willing to make a deal if I get fifty percent off the regular price." She smiled and looked at him.

No…" he went to the communicator that was by the door and pushed the button "set course for the island of blue orchards. He walked back as the submerged ship changed course and started to combine some ingredients. This made Nami huff in frustration.

"Ok then seventy percent I won't go no lower" she smiled.

"No…"

"Eighty percent off"

"No…"

"Ninety"

"No you either pay full price or ill dump you into the ocean." He said in a bored tone. But honestly he was amused with her negotiating skills.

Nami gulped at the thought of just being thrown into the ocean, especially when she was barely able to even walk. So she just rested her head on the pillow and sighed "Fine… you win… this time…" She watched him from where she was and let her eyes wonder. They wondered first to his ass. (So typical)

She stared for a minute, smirking at the fact that he did have an ass despite that his coat covered what he had. He did have an ass. Nami continued to watch him, examining his whole body along with whatever glimpse of the front of his pants she could get. She couldn't really tell because his apron was in the way but she could spot the slightest outline. From where she was he looked average.

"What seems to be so interesting about me Nami-ya?" He used the syllable to tease her. He honestly didn't want to use it on her but it was just too cute. Especially her reaction was cute. Nami's face had turned red and she looked away.

"Nothing… I was trying to see what you were doing…" She lied smoothly but he could see right through her lie. When she was tired she was a terrible liar and not very sneaky but he let her go, shrugging. He grabbed a handful of the fine powder he made and looked at her. "This will help you sleep… it will also help with some pain..." he came over and before Nami could protest he blew some into her face gently.

This made Nami pass out almost instantly.

A few days later Nami woke up but instead of being on an examining table she was in a comfy bed in a room that wasn't completely white. The only things that had anything to do with her health were a few machines that were still hooked up to her. Monitoring her breathing and keeping her hydrated.

Taking a deep breath she smelled the masculine scent of cologne and aftershave. At this she decided to sit up. Looking around the room it looked like she was in a regular room. The only difference was that the windows were small and round, giving her a small view of the ocean. Slowly she sat up and propped the pillows behind her. The room looked like it belonged to a total neat freak. On that thought she scoffed, rolling her eyes "His room I bet…" she looked at herself and blushed. She was in a baggy t-shirt which she assumed to be Law's.

Looking around even more she noticed a tray on the night stand with a thermos on it. She opened it and gently smiled. "Mmm soup… I'm starved…" She drank the warm liquid slowly, letting it soothe her dry throat. Knowing she hadn't eaten in a while so she took it slow.

"I see your awake" Law said as he was leaned against the door, he appeared out of nowhere thanks to his devil fruit powers. He walked over and checked her vitals before nodding. "You should be fine for now… I got the plant while you were sleeping and its settling in the medicine right now." he watched her carefully as she didn't respond until after she finished the soup.

"Well im not in pain if that's what you're wondering… damn what is that medicine anyway I need some to take back with me when I go home…" she smiled as she thought about the ship that she called home then looked at him and realized something "Law… when do I get to go home?"

"In six months…" he was hesitant about her now dark expression but he didn't show it.

"SIX MONTHS! WHAT THE FUCK?! WHY THE HELL AM I GOING TO BE HERE FOR FUCKING SIX MONTHS?!" She screeched in anger and flipped the blankets off of her legs. She went to stand but then fell to her knees. Her temper suddenly diminished as she realized that she could barely stand let alone walk. Her fists balled up in anger. "Damn… I forgot…" She looked at him a little puzzled. "If I'm so fragile that I have to sit in a wheelchair then why didn't you catch me?"

Law sighed, he didn't like explaining things so he made it simple. "While you slept and rested your nerves and muscles repaired themselves enough to withstand falling down." He looked at her. "Do you even know how long you've been sleeping?" He looked at her with one eyebrow raised.

She tilted her head "probably a couple days at the most… but in all about a week… maybe two…" she started to think more about it when law sighed.

"You have been aboard my ship for almost a month now…" he looked at her shocked expression and continued "The first two you were basically in a coma and then the powder I made knocked you out for another week and a half which gave me time to get to the island and make your medicine… I've been feeding it to you through your IV while you slept and so far it seems like it's doing its job." He helped her back onto the bed which was so high her feet were lifted from the ground a good six inches.

He tapped each knee so that they kicked up and smirked "hmm… faster than usual I might say… you're making some good process. Seeing as you were able to stand. But that doesn't mean anything… today eat and start building up your strength because tomorrow we start your physical therapy."

Nami smirked and snorted, "Oh how I wish it was the fun kind of physical therapy." She joked. Law knew this but smirked in return.

"Don't bite off more than you can chew… unlike you i have some experience in that field, little Mrs. Virgin…" he chuckled at her reaction as he walked to the door, closing it quietly behind him.

Nami panted heavily as she worked more and more on walking, holding onto the support beams on either side of her. She had been doing this for almost a week now and was gradually getting better, her legs getting stronger every day.

"Nami-san we got a message from the straw hats" Shachi announced, bringing a paper to her. She stood up and let go of the bars, taking the letter from the blonde she read it.

It's been about a month now and we are getting lost all the time but don't worry we are all safe. ~ Robin

Nami-san by chance could you send me a pair of your panties? ~ Brook

Don't listen to that pervert nami- swan just come back to us safe and those guys better not try anything stupid. ~ Sanji

Get better and stronger. ~ Zoro

I've made sure no harm has come to the sunny while you were gone and Im working on a weather machine to help us avoid bad weather. Get better so you can come back in SUPER shape ~ Frankie

Nami you better take care of yourself and make sure law gives you your medicine correctly because if he doesn't it will be ineffective. ~chopper

NAMI come home safe it's not the same without you here yelling at us not to do stupid things. ~ KING OF THE PIRATES STRAW HAT LUFFY!

Nami gently smiled and folded the paper putting it into her pocket "Thanks Shachi… If you manage to get a hold of them again tell them I'm working on getting better to come home soon." She gently smiled and Shachi nodded.

"Ok will do but I'll see ya at dinner time. Work hard" He waved and walked out of the room, going back to the control room.

Nami went back to her therapy and pretty soon she was able to walk with little to no problems. Everything was slowly starting to become routine for her and she liked that the guys didn't pester her and were well behaved.

But the one thing she couldn't get used to was sleeping in law's bed. It wasn't because it was his bed though. It was because law slept in his bed next to her...every night. But what had really surprised her was that he didnt even try to make a move on her. Surely a guy would want to at least try to seduce a woman if they were laying in their bed and not to mention wearing his shirts and boxer shorts as pajamas since she didn't have a lot of clothes with her. Unless he was gay.

But from the way he acted that night they almost slept together she could tell that he definitely wasn't gay.

Nami shook her head. Why did all these thoughts come to her now of all times? She continued training until she knew that she had reached her limits for the day then she sat down, drank some water and laid down just as law entered the training room.

"We're about to surface if you want to come up and get some fresh air." He took in her appearance. She was in short shorts that were for working out and her usual bikini top that showed off her cleavage. He had told his crew to not make a move on her and he knew it was hard not to with what she chose to wear on a daily basis.

Nami stretched and nodded, getting up slowly before walking over to him with a gentle smile. "Okay… lets go enjoy the fresh air." She walked out of the room, law following behind her as he stared at her back, her curves being engraved into his memory.

It was a nice sunny day and the breeze was just right so everyone relaxed on the deck as they soaked in the sun. Even law had his shirt off and his tattoos showing. The only person that snuck glances was the orange haired navigator and at the thought she smiled and laid on the deck, sighing contently as she watched the clouds roll across the bright blue sky.
