I do not own One Piece just my OCs and if you have read this far thank you so much and I hope you like it.
I sat in the principal's office, his name was Crocus, and he was bold with petals around his head. "Do you know why you're here?"
"I punched a girl." I said leaning back in my chair.
"I should have expected that from you, Layla wasn't much different. Did you have a reason why you hit her?"
"Yes I do she was being a bitch to me and to Vivi"
He looked at a piece of paper, and up at me "I'll going to give you a week of detention, but if you hit another student again you will be suspended" I sat up a little in my chair and was about to ask why. He held up his hand, "Serena with your record I'm going to be strict with you, and I'm going to have to talk to a parent" he looked back at the same paper, "but I only see an Ann-Marie's number"
Oh no I can't have Ann-Marie know I got into a fight, she is my godmother and strict as hell, "I can give you my home number."
He looked at me and said "You can leave now"
I walked back to my locker putting away my gym bag and grabbing my backpack, before I made my way to the cafeteria. I already miss part of lunch being in the principal's office. The cafeteria was large and bright thanks to the wall of windows that look out on a court yard. A few students remained but it was mostly empty. I hoped they haven't stopped serving lunch, I walked over to the food and thank goodness they were still serving. I grabbed a tray and got behind another student who was talking to the lunch lady. "Why can't you just give me another serving?"
"Because we have to make sure everyone has enough to eat. But if you're still hungry have a salad." She handed the boy a salad and me a regular plate of food. It was a large plate of food, I could not eat all of this. The boy turned to see who was getting the plate of food, "Serena trade with me"
"Sure I can't eat all of this anyway" we traded plates. I grabbed a bottle of water and looked around to find a place to sit. I start towards an empty table by the windows, when Luffy grabbed me by the arm; "Come sit with us" Luffy said pulling me towards a table.
"Luffy are you sure?"
"Yea, we're friend's reminder". Luffy is such a sweet heart, I let him drag me to where Sanji and Zoro were siting. Sanji was delighted to see me join them, Zoro on the other hand didn't look as happy as I sat down across from him. Luffy dug in to his food, I never seen anyone eat like that beside Ace.
I started on my salad when Sanji spoke up, "Serena". I looked at him, "that was nice of you to stick up for Vivi"
I was very touched by what Sanji said. "It's no problem." I looked over at Luffy, "You know Luffy you remind me of a friend that eats the same way."
"Really who" he said between bites.
"Ace, he is banded from eating at our house because we can't fill him up"
"You know Ace?" Luffy asked with a mouth full of food.
"Luffy swallow before you talk to a lady" Sanji said.
"Yea his a friend of my sister"
"You have a sister" Sanji ask think about another pretty girl.
I nodded "Her name is Layla she went to school here."
"I know Layla," Luffy said before stuffing his mouth with another fork full of food, "she used to come up to me and hang all over me telling me that I need to date her little sister."
"That sounds like Layla" I continued munching on salad
Luffy and I were rushing up the stairs to the third floor; we were running late for class. Many of the halls were pack full so we had to find another way. We parted ways at the stairs he had to go to History and I had Biology. I got to the door and it was locked. I couldn't understand why it was locked then I saw the note on the door. 'Those who are late will wait in the hall for ten minutes'. I grab my phone from my bag "I'm only two minutes late" I said out load. I looked around the hall to see if anybody was coming so I wouldn't me the only one who was late. The halls were empty; the school had large windows and they were depth enough to sit on. I dropped my bag and took a sit. I waited and waited but time seemed to move so slowly. The halls were quiet for the most part until I heard someone walking down the hall. I leaned forward to see who it was, it turn out to be a tall guy. His hair was a mess he also had a small goatee. He walked to the door in front of me, he reached for the doorknob and it didn't open. "There's a note on the door" I said he turn to look at me then back at the door.
"How long have you been waiting?" he walked over to the window, I noisiest that he had many tattoos on his arms and hands. My phone was laying on my lap I tapped it, "about six minutes."
"You're that Dracule chick" he asked setting down his books on the window seal.
"Yea why?" he was quiet for a moment looking at me, I crossed my legs and turned to look at him.
"Well you don't look like the types of girl who would go around punching people" he said with a lazy smile.
I smiled, "well I didn't mean to punch her, that girl was just asking for it when she slapped me."
"You know that you broke her noise."
"I might be a bit rusty…did I really break it is that what the nurse said."
"No I'm the one who help that girl. Just to let you know I'm more skilled than the nurse" he was acting like I offended him or something.
"So have you had this teacher before?" I asked looking at the door.
"No, but I heard that she's a real witch"
"Do you mean bitch" I corrected him.
"That too" then the door open and a kid was standing there, he looked too young to be in high school. "You can come in now" the young boy said slyly.
Well our Biology teacher is crazy; she threw books at us when we didn't know the answer. She is an old hag, who has to be older than a hundred. The class is small only six people and I'm the only girl. "Alright that should be enough for today, you two that came in late get the notes you missed" Dr. Kureha said. She propped her feet up on the desk and took a drink of something.
I leaned forward to tap the young boy, whose name was Chopper "Can I borrow your notes for a minute?"
"Sure yea," he handed me his notes. They were a couple pages front and back and I knew I couldn't copy them all. So I grabbed my phone and snapped pictures of them. I handed them back to Chopper; I had a few minutes till the bell rang. I decided to take a closer look at the photos I shot last night. I was scrolling through them when the guy that sits next to me says "those are really good" he has fair skin with pale blonde hair. "Thanks" I moved my phone a little closer so he could see them better. I scrolled to the one of the rider with the fur hat.
"Hey can I see that for a moment" I handed it over to him. "She got a good picture of you, Law" he turned to the tattoo youth. So the hottie in the hat turned out to be this 'Law'. Now that I take a closer look at Law and he was attractive in a way I guess.
Law looked at it then to me, "I thought you said that you're a painter"
"I am, but I took a few photography classes" the bell rang and this Law character grabbed my phone and left the room. "Hey wait I need that back" I yelled at him as we left the room. I was trying to catch up with him, "Law give it back" that seemed to stop him.
He stopped in the middle of the hall and turned to me "Trafalgar"
"What"
"You can call me Trafalgar"
"Fine you can call me Serena" I was close enough to him that I was about to grab my phone back and I could smell the same colon. I headed to my next class, Algebra, before I became weak in the knees.
I heard to the class room, I was getting the hang of finding the classrooms, when I ran into Proche's lackeys, "Dracule" I looked at them, "just to let you know that there is a rumor going around that your dad had to pay twice the tuition because you failed out of your last school and no other school would take an idiot"
I looked at them think these girls are the idiot, "Actually my father had to pay twice the tuition is because I was in juvi for assault and my last schooled kicked me out because a girl talked trash to me. And let me tell you she needed up in worst shape than you girl." I started walking to my class, "Get your facts straight" I called out before flipping my curls in their faces. Before I got to the classroom Nami stopped me in the hall, "Did you really go to jail for assault?"
"Oh no I was convicted for breaking and enter and carrying an unregistered gun but the thing about my last school was true"
"Ok that good to know. Now come on before we were late for our next class" she said walking to the class room.
"So…your find talking to me now" I asked wonder what's going on.
"Luffy said that you're ok"
"Ok" really Nami since like a smart girl and she just going to follow Luffy who seems nice and a little I don't know yet, but there is something else about him. But it is still too early to judge him and his Ace's little brother so he can't be that bad.
Nami and I took our seats in the middle of the room, and well this class wasn't much better than the last one. I hear one of girls say that for some of the classes were spit up into two classes one for honors and other, this class was probably the other. Looking around to see who was in here was Kid and his friends but Killer wasn't here, Luffy, Usopp, Procha's lackeys, and some other students I haven't talked to.
We waited for the teacher to start class, but he wasn't here. A couple minutes later he came in gripping about something, "Damn summer…damn kids…I'm retiring this year." He pick up the attendance list and walked throw the aisles of desk, "Nice to see that some of you are here again, and I see we have a few new students here. Well I'm Mr. Buggy and I won't put your shit" he looked at Eustass. "Now all new students raise your hands." I raised my hand and the bluenette came towards me. "You…" he leaned a little closer "look familiar."
"I highly doubt that I would not talk to scum- I mean a teacher like you" I smiled trying to make it convicting.
"Your Hawkeye's child aren't you?"
"Yes?" I wasn't sure that this guy knew my father.
"I see it now the eyes" mumbled before moving on.
Algebra is going to be my favorite class, during class Luffy made the comment that he looked like a clown and I can totally see it. With his long light blue hair and his red nose. We really didn't do much class work, when Buggy would start teaching usually Luffy and Eustass would ask something off subject. So we really didn't do anything today. I did learn that Nami is really bossy to everybody and especially towards Luffy. I know that she has a crush on him, from Perona, but why be bossy. I never had to be like that to get a guy's attention. After that is my last class of the day is Fine Arts, all the seniors had to take it. As we enter the classroom our teacher was playing the violin, we quietly took our seats. I grabbed one next to Perona and I was surprise to see that Trafalgar sit in front of me. "What are you doing?"
"Sitting Serena-ya"
"I can see that but why in front of me?"
"I wanted to sit by Bepo." I looked over and sure enough Bepo was sitting next to Trafalgar. "Oh I meant to ask you if you learned you fighting skills from Little Garden?" he whisper to me.
"Some want and you own me twenty bucks."
After our teacher finish his song he introduced himself as Brook. He is and old man a lot older than the witch but he had an afro. For our lesion we lesson to different types of music. Half way during the class I took out a piece of paper and started to sketch. Whenever I'm in my studio I open all the windows so I can hear the sounds of the city. I was drawing Brook but something told me to draw him as a skeleton and oddly enough it seemed to suit him. I was about done when a tan 'D.E.A.T.H.' hand found its way to the drawing I smacked that hand away. "Weren't you taught to keep your hands to yourself?" I said meeting Trafalgar's gaze and resting my chin on my palm of my hand.
"Why a skeleton" he said looking at my picture.
"I don't know but it feels right"
He nodded in agreement, "You're actual good at this" he said with a lazy smile. I could feel a smile forming on my face. "Thanks" I said hiding my smile with my palm. I can't flirt with anybody I have a goal to leave the city and I don't need a boyfriend to keep me here. But if I was looking for one, Trafalgar would have a slim chance.
After Fine Arts I headed to the classroom where detention and I was the only one there. I sat in one of the many empty desk, I'm not really surprise who gets in a fight on the first day besides me. A few minutes later Buggy came through the door, "What are you doing in here?"
"I punch girl"
"Getting into fight you are Hawkeye's child."
"Alright" I sat up in the desk "how do you know my dad?"
"I went to school with you father"
"What that's a lie the only high school friend of his was Shanks"
"Ask Shanks he'll tell you." There's no way that's true, I spent the rest of detention flipping through a magazine thing what else my dad didn't tell me about his high school years.
I parked on the street, we have hardly and neighbors so no one would mind, I opened the front door and I was greeted by Tiger-Lily. I picked her up and head to my room the change out of my school uniform. I walked back down stairs to the living room to where Layla was. I joined her one the couch she didn't say anything, I knew that I had to start the talking. "I shouldn't have said that and I have felt bad all day"
"I accept your apology and I'm sorry but I don't want you to go."
"Well I'm not leaving until I graduate and I'll visit you… and my friends"
"You said friends did you make a friend today beside Perona?"
"Yes I did his name is Luffy"
"And she also got into a fight today" we both looked towards the kitchen to find Shanks snooping threw our cabinets. Layla turned to me and raised her eyebrows I nodded and told her that I'll explain that later.
"Shanks did you stay here all day?" I asked him.
"No I left and came back I promised Layla that we could watch our soups together" he said sitting in dad's chair with a bowl of chips. "Now shut up their starting."
Thanks for reading and Please tell me what you think.
