The City Kid.
Luffy was walking...somewhere probably to the farm girls house. He had a baby blue blanket wrapped around his neck and shoulders. Luffy had a hangover, and a migraine. Luffy just felt like crap as he walked. He was trying his hardest not to snap at the Orangette who was beside him, along with her German Shepherd Zeus. Nami was giggling and teasing him. Also begging to wear his straw hat. Despite all this Luffy was acting cold, the reason for that was because of just the stuff his...ex Told him. Was Reiju his ex?
Luffy Stopped in place and thought about it, the chatty naive farm girl stopped too, definitely confused as to why they stopped walking.
Luffy really had to think about it, he cared about her...but he hadn't really thought about it like that. The pink haired girl was a lot of things to Luffy, but Luffy had a hard time calling her that in particular. Luffy guessed he'd just say she was a booty call. But even saying that felt wrong, as the two of them had often argued like they were boyfriend and girlfriend. But before he could think on it more. The orangette standing right next to him grabbed his forearm and practically clamped on it. The very strong grip surprised Luffy. She then spoke up in that hypnotizing voice that had Luffy so confused and angry.
"Is there something wrong Mister?" The farm girl Nami asked him. her voice was so sweet...it had Luffy in a funk full of...denial.
Luffy looked over to the smiling farm girl, who had just this pure sweet look on her face. Her pretty amber eyes shining as they started at each other. Luffy blushed and looked down towards the dirt, for whatever reason he was just embarrassed. Like Luffy hadn't taken dozens of one night stands in his time.
For whatever reason this orange haired farm girl had him acting like a total unconfident dork.
"Uh, It's cool I'm just kinda hot because of the weather." Luffy said, totally unconvinced about the lie himself.
However to his surprise the farm girl actually bought it, giggling and laughing as she spoke up.
"Haha, you city folk are so strange! What's with you fellers? You guys can't stand a little heat huh?" the farm girl chuckled some more. Before slapping his arm and started walking ahead of him. The mutt following the orangette like the loyal companion he was. After she walked a bit ahead she turned back for just a second, smiling at him and speaking to him so nice again.
"C'mon Luffy! My mama's gonna want to meet you!"
She then turned back and then walked ahead again.
Luffy just started at her, studying the backside of the farm girl, seeing her grey and white flannel and her blue jean daisy dukes, with her black cowboy boots. she just casually walked. Swinging her arms back and forth, skipping like she didn't have a care in the world.
A voice popped in his head again, he was all too familiar with it.
"And when you meet that special girl Luffy-san, You'll Know."
Luffy sighed and followed the farm girl back to her house, he had a nervous feeling about this.

Luffy had caught up to the farm girl and her mutt, but that's only because she stopped in front of her house. It was a big one, it was red just like the barn next to it. A station wagon was parked outside too. Luffy definitely knew he was in hillbilly hick town. It smelled like citrus. Zeus was hovering over his water bowl slurping down water and Nami was staring at the house.
Suddenly the farm girl turned over to him and frowned at him, not before speaking up in a shy timid voice that Luffy found adorable. Luffy just found himself staring at her pretty eyes as as she started speaking.
"Uhh, I'm sorry to say it again mister, but my Mama just doesn't like male company at the house...since your a man I spose my Mama might do somethings she doesn't mean. So I gotta ask you not to hold it against her...if you would please?" Nami finished with a sheepish smile.
Luffy just stared at her, unsure what to think and even less what to do. Luffy was kinda scared of going in there. Which was kinda funny because he was scared of a woman he never even met. Yet he's ran into burning buildings multiple times.
He spoke up finally, deciding he'd give Nami's mother the benefit of the doubt. Even after all the warnings Nami gave him.
"No problem Shishishi! I'll have her warmed up to me in no time!" Luffy staid nonchalantly as he started to walk up to the house. He only took a few more feet, however before he could walk further, the orangette who was standing a few inches away from him, yanked his arm really hard.
Luffy got spun around. What he didn't expect, other than her weird strength was the anger in her eyes. Luffy gulped as he stared at her.
It was the death stare that had him petrified, as her anger just glowed off her. Luffy unexpectedly was flat on his behind after The farm girl quickly bonked him upside the head.
"Ouch" said Luffy, as he started rub his head. He stared up at the country girl who now towered over him, she was glaring daggers at him. For once Luffy was...scared.
"DIDN'T I TELL YOU TO WAIT YOU DUMMY! WHAT IF MY MOMMA SAW YOU! I'D BE IN HEAPS OF TROUBLE MISTER!"
The orangette continued to yell at him and berate him. He felt the air go flat. And couldn't hear a word she said as she yelled and yelled at him. Luffy felt his chest pang, right then and there he knew that this farm girl was like no other girl he had ever been with. While this one was currently screaming her head off, Luffy felt a large blush come to his cheeks as he stared at her. How mad she was and how...pretty she looked while she was yelling at him. Realizing how stupid he sounded Luffy looked away from her, he was absolutely embarrassed.
Did Luffy like them feisty?
The farm girl's anger only grew at this as she shouted at him again.
"WHY ARE YOU BLUSHING MISTER! YOU BETTER NOT BE MAKING FUN OF ME! DO YOU WANT ANOTHER BUMP ON YOUR HEAD!" Nami shouted at him, as the farm girl raised her fist again.
Luffy sprung his hands up and begged for mercy.
"Woah Woah! It's alright Nami! I wasn't making fun of you!"
He said hesitantly. Unsure of how the farm girl would proceed.
Her whole body relaxed and she lowered her fist, but her frown was still present. "then what's with you mister?" She asked with a hint of anger present.
Luffy sighed and stared up at her again, her pretty eyes staring down at him.
"I just thought you looked...really pretty when you're were mad…" Luffy trailed off, kind of ashamed to admit that. as he once again looked away from her.
A few seconds went by and Luffy's eyes found their way back to Nami, the orangette had a huge blush ear to ear, and Luffy thought that was really cute too.
The farm girl just huffed and fumed, and soon turned away from him. Quickly rushing up the stairs into her house, at the top of the stairs she came to a full halt and turned around. Luffy stared at her as Nami scolded him. Shaking her head at him before using her fingers to tell him to c'mon. Nami then went inside. Leaving Luffy incredibly dumbfounded.
Luffy sighed and sat up, his head hurt. 'Geez, where did that come from? I thought she was nice. Then she hits me.' Luffy stood up and dusted himself off, he still had a terrible feeling about going into her house.

The Farmer's Daughter.
Nami stood inside her house, she was incredibly nervous. Momma don't like boy's here...and here Nami brought one here who stinks like moonshine. Even if he was a fireman. You could smell the gin a league away.
The orangette comedically groaned, before whining to herself.
"I'm gonna be in trouble aren't I?" She said in a somewhat loud voice to herself, her heart shrunk as Nami heard her mother say something while she came around the corner.
"What are you gonna be in trouble for Sweet pea?" Her momma said, while she appeared outta nowhere. She was holding a dishrag and a cup.
The farm girl shrieked inside, utterly terrified of her momma finding out about Luffy. 'Oh Shoot! Momma's here! Darn It! I need to think of something!'
Nami sheepishly put on her best poker face, and tried her best to...well, Nami knew not to ever lie to her momma, so the orangette was just going to avoid talking bout the city kid standing outside her house.
"Uh, i-it's nothing Mama, Zeus just got into the g-garbage that's all." Nami said, as she looked towards the ground. The farm girl wanted kick her shin for how stupid she sounded.
Her Mama just stared at her, while Nami held her head in shame. Momma chuckled at her before speaking up.
"Hmm, you know sweetie. You always look at your feet when you lie to me." Her Mama stepped forward and put her cup and rag down on the cupboard. Nami was nervous as her red haired mom grabbed her chin and pulled it up. She stared into her mother's eyes seeing nothing but disappointment in them. That really made Nami sad. Her mom spoke up that voice Nami rarely heard. Cause she knew better to ever do something to hear it.
"Hmph, Now Missy, Lie to me again and you'll do double your rows today, is that understood?"
The farm girl felt a sad pang in her heart, she was sorry…and guilty that she'd try to deceive momma. Nami felt shameful, so the farmers daughter replied in a low whisper.
"Yes Mama…" Nami replied, and went back to staring at her feet. But momma grabbed her chin again. And spoke in the same voice Nami had heard since she was a little pea.
"Good, now that's outta the way sweet pea, you can tell your friend to stop standing outside and come on in"
Nami's eyes widened and she tried saying something but all that came out was baffled words.
"I b-d-h"
Momma hushed her and continued.
"Shhhh Sweet Pea, it's alright. I'm not mad at you. You saw a stranger in need and you helped them, I expect nothing less from my daughter. But...Tell him to come in, because I'm gonna have a talk with him."
Nami was confused and kinda frightened for Luffy. Momma could be really mean sometimes and truthfully the orangette thought he was pretty nice.
"But Momma, how did you know?" Nami asked, because she tried her hardest to make sure she didn't caught.
Momma just chuckled at her again.
"I heard you yelling at him from in here sweet pea," Momma finished, once again chuckling at her again. "But that's okay Nami, you get that feisty side from me."
The farm girl blushed and looked away. Before shaking her head yes. Nami turned back and went towards the door.
She opened it up and stepped outside, Nami was met with Luffy coming up her stairs.
"Shishishi Hey Nami! Is she all ready to meet me?" The city kid asked as he got to the top of the steps.
Nami shook her head yes, and huffed before speaking up.
"Like I said earlier Mister, My mama is not the warmest person to meet. She's rather cold at first...but that don't mean hold it against her. My mama is just doing it cause it's for the best. Now she's ready to meet you Luffy."
All she got was a snicker from him in response. Which really ticked her off.
The farm girl tightened her fist, and spoke up in a low growl.
"Hey! I need you to take this seriously!"
Luffy stopped laughing and sighed before talking again.
"Ok Nami, I will." Luffy said seriously. Nami sighed, she had a hard time believing this feller.
"That's not good enough for me Mister, I want you to promise me."
"Promise?" He asked her, tilting his head at her.
The farm girl grit her teeth in frustration. These city folk sure are stupid, why did Nami have to say everything twice?
"I SAID PROMISE ME YOU STUPID BLOCK HEAD! AND I WANT YOU TO MEAN IT" The farm girl huffed and puffed at him. Still angry as buzzards at him.
Unbeknownst to the farmer's daughter, a certain redhead was smiling as she listened in on their conversation.
Luffy put his hands up.
"Geez, Ok Nami I promise!"
Nami let out a little breath before speaking up, a smile soon grew on her face.
"Good, now My mama is all ready for you. I gotta go tend to Zeus-chan for a second. I'll be right back." The orangette spoke, as she walked forward and stopped in front of him, she clutched his left forearm and spoke up.
"And Maybe if Momma likes you! You can stay here with us!"
