A/N: It's short and sweet and a little OOC but I can live with it.

Law stopped mid shower and realized something. The house was too quiet. Way too quiet.

At first, Law had enjoyed the silence as he washed his hair.

And then he realized that with his current living situation that quiet wasn't good.

What was Luffy doing to be so quiet? Was he okay? Did he need help with something? Oh god what did Luffy do?

He rushed the second half of the shower he was previously enjoying and dried off. He hadn't even fully pulled up his pants before rushing out to see what was up.

He was right to worry.

The couch was in shambles. One of the cushions lay torn open on the floor and the stuffing was sprawled out everywhere. The TV had a crack in it's bottom left hand corner. The sink was running and there was a broken glass on the kitchen floor. To top it all off there were muddy paw prints everywhere.

His house was a mess.

A complete fucking mess.

What had Luffy done in the twenty minutes it took him to shower?

But where was Luffy?

Half of him felt like sinking to the floor in despair and figure out how much this was going to cost to fix but the other half bribed him to look for his boyfriend.

Come to think of it, Bepo was gone too. And he was a giant dog so he wasn't that hard to miss.

"Luffy?!" He shouted. No response. "Luffy! If you can hear me come out here!" Nothing.

He opened the back door and looked out. No one. He walked to the front door and looked out. Nada.

'Okay so they're still inside...' He thought. "Luffy when I find you, you are in so much trouble!" Now he sounded more like a parent than a significant other. But if you had any relation to Luffy you had to act like a parent at some time.

He checked every room he could think and got nothing. Until he heard a bark from their room.

Moving into their bedroom he looked around until his eyes landed on the closet door. He sighed, walked over, and opened it.

"Found you." He frowned at the sight of Luffy hiding behind their giant ass dog. The dog showed no fear in his expression. Chances are Luffy just brought him in for his own protection.

"Please don't get mad at me, Torao!" Luffy started. "Bepo knocked me down when I was trying to get some water for his bowl and then he got up on the couch and he was all muddy and he's not supposed to be there in the first place anyway so I tried to get him down and he knocked me into the TV and it cracked and then he got the cushion and tore it and I tried to stop him I really did bu-" law held out a ring and silenced him.

"I am mad." He started. "But I can forgive Bepo for his mistakes." He moved out of the doorway and the dog went to sit in his bed. The doctor then extended a hand out to Luffy who took it and pulled the younger up.

"So you're not mad at me?" Luffy asked hesitantly.

Law chuckled and pulled him into a hug and kissed the top of his head. "I'm always mad at you, you idiot."
