Hai~ Sorry for the really late update! Here's the second chapter.
Sorry if you found the character's OOC. And thank's for all the reviews you gave. Hope you could enjoy this…
OP is clearly not my own but Oda's-sensei! I just am a huge fan of his creation.
***O.N.E…P.I.E.C.E***
TWO YEARS PRIOR…
Monkey D Luffy was in one of the many rooms in the Sakura Clinic. He was alone at the moment, Chopper, the clinic owner and doctor was gone to check his other patient. But after a quiet minute, the door of his room burst opened. There stand his girlfriend. She just stood there with a hand covering her mouth and wide eyes. He could see that she's about to shed tears.
Luffy silently curse on Chopper which is also his best friend. He has told the tiny doctor to not inform anyone yet, especially his girl. He hated it every time he got in troubles, she gave him that look. And to add it more, the tears that threatened to fall from her usual shiny eyes. He hated to see her cry. But as far as he could remember, he's the one who's always made her wear that expression. And here he promised to make her happy.
The girl slowly took a step forward to where Luffy stayed. Her glassy eyes looked intently on the bandage that covered almost all part on his body, but the tears didn't fall… yet. She knew he'll feel guilty again if she's crying now. And she didn't want to see that hurt feature on his now bruised face. He always got in a fight. And she knew he always has his reason behind that action. Still she couldn't shake the worry, though he's known as a great fighter around their district and neighborhood. She raised her hand to his face and gently rubbed her thumb around his cheek.
"Nami…" the call of her name also the call of her tears. She couldn't hold it and just let it fall. And she caught the gleams of guilty and sadness he always showed when she cried. She then wiped them with her other free hand, and tried to smile.
"This is worst than last time. What happened?" she asked softly while taking a seat on the small space in front of him at the edge of the bed. He just looked at her eyes. Palms cupped both her head's side and leaned his forehead on hers without breaking eye contact. "Luffy…" and he leaned in to close the distance between them.
"I'm sorry…" he whispered after they parted. Nami gave him a confused look, but he just pulled her into his arms. And without any words Nami knew he didn't want to talk about it, at least for now. And she granted his silent wish by hugging him back. They stayed like that for awhile until she heard a soft snore and steady breaths against her neck. She then put him slowly in a comfortable position on the bed and pulled the cover to his chin. She just sat there and looked at her beloved for God knows how long.
The incident happened three days after that day…
***O.N.E…P.I.E.C.E***
He just returned from nowhere all bloody with some broken bones. Zoro found him accidently -when he's lost in his way home- just at the outskirt of their town. He quickly called Sanji and they brought him to Chopper's clinic. It's almost midnight, so the two didn't try to contact Nami about the matter. And when Chopper saw him, he immediately made a quick work on him.
"How is he Chopper?" asked Sanji when the doctor got out of Luffy's room.
"There's nothing too serious. He just got new wounds and his old ones reopened. Most of the blood he got on him wasn't his. I wonder who he fought with," said Chopper and took a seat beside Sanji who lit a cigarette.
"He's been acting weird lately, but he didn't want to talk about it either" added Zoro while he's leaning on the wall by Luffy's door. Sanji grunted at his statement, "And he only makes Nami-san even more worried. Robin-chan said that she's been crying a lot lately. That idiot, did he even realized that he only hurt Nami-san ? I rarely saw her smile this past week. He better use his strength for a proper job than beat someone's ass out there," and little did they know, that Luffy has regained his consciousness in the middle of their conversation and has heard what his friends talked about.
Zoro and Sanji stayed their night there in case Luffy need something. But when morning came, they were surprised. Luffy's nowhere to be found. His bed far from warm that indicated he had left for quite a long time. Probably not long after they went asleep. Thinking that he might return to his house, the three –Zoro, Sanji and Chopper- went there, but they got another surprise. Half of his things were gone. The room was in a mess, it looked like he's in a hurry. There's a little note attached on a mirror and it said "Sorry"…

There you go, the 2nd chapter…
Disappointed,? *smirk*
Don't blame me! I've warned you he left just because of a silly reason… and that's the reason. This chapter might get you a lil' confused, but sorry, I didn't intend to give a proper detail about why was Luffy fighting and who were he fought with. Just use your own idea on that. One thing for sure though, he never fought people if he didn't feel offence. This reason will never changed,,!
Please give me a piece of your mind about this one too,,! Onegai nee~~ *wink*
Btw, I just read the few last chapters of One Piece after a long time. My LuNa has returned~~ and I was quite shocked, surprised and happy when I saw "that"… She hugged him for the first time.! Well, if you didn't count the time Luffy took her to fly to a safe place with his power –like in Water 7-. And there's an announcement about the new FILM "GOLD" that will probably release next year. Can't wait for that~~ *squalling like a lil' girl*
{Oh, stop your blabbering Rayn! Just go and focus for the next chapter and other of your projects already…!}
