chapter 6

I woke up the next day just like every day, Whining a little at the interaction of sunlight with my face and especially with my eyes, hoping it will be a good day and that maybe my luck will finally show itself and finish the one sided hide and seek game it's been playing for quite some time. I sighed hugging my pillow closer, sleeping while hugging a pillow turns into a habit faster than you think believe me, the weird, quite disturbing facts about my pillow were:

First of all it was breathing, 'Imagination..' I thought.

Then it started mumbling 'hahahaha damn hallucinations.' I thought chuckling slightly, starting to get nervous.

I opened my eyes, with the intentions of calming my over flowing curiosity of exactly what my pillow was, only to be greeted by the sight of a Monkey D Luffy sleeping soundly and peacefully but frowning slightly, as the sunlight attacked his eyes just like it did to mine. At first I couldn't comprehend what was happening, then very slowly with each movement he made, realization crept into my mind.

'Aw my god!' I panicked moving away instantly, my face red a bit. I wonder if I squeaked back then? but that would be totally understandable for a fan girl like me I mean HE DID LOOK ADORABLE, aside from the drooling, HE WAS CUTE AS EVER 'he isn't supposed to be this cute, how..? Just how!?' I thought inching in closer to inspect the person in front of me. 'Maybe it's a dream and this is the dream Luffy that should be hot and adorable, see NORMAL!' I thought assuring myself nothing was weird about seeing your anime crush in your bed looking THIS cute.

His hair looked shiny and soft, he looked so peaceful and cute, his features disturbed slightly by the sunlight and even though I was trying my best not to creep him out, the fan girl within me resurfaced yet again, I patted his head softly 'his hair is softer than mine...' I thought shocked, looking at the hair locks that cascaded down my shoulder and back at his hair.

Before I knew it there was a hand grabbing my arm, actually make that two hands and they were Luffy's he was up! eyes still closed, a frown on his face as he held my arm as if it was a piece of meat 'oh no! he wouldn't!' I panicked as he opened his mouth "MEAT!" he shouted.

"WAKE UP YOU IDIOT THAT'S MY HAND!" I shouted back punching him square in the face so hard something seemed really wrong with his features. He woke up "EH? Relina what are you doing you took my meat!" he scolded as I simply punched him over the head so it was now hanging as he stared at my arm that was amazingly still intact.

"I'm sorry!" he whined as I glared at him "what would an apology do me when I lose a freaking arm let alone it being eaten by a human is another disturbing fact!" I scolded standing in front of a cross legged, pouting Luffy. He was still sitting on the bed when the door flew open revealing Nami.

Okay she misunderstood something or maybe a few things. "What are you doing in Luffy's room?" she asked a mischievous look on her face making me look around 'I'm in Luffy's room? I didn't notice what am I retarded?' I panicked not knowing what to say "WHY AM I HERE?" I turned to Luffy shouting because it was too confusing for my poor just woke up mind to understand "you had a bad dream remember?" he said smiling kindly 'Eh...? wait a sec.. a weird dream I remember, but how did...? oh! Luffy..! HE...!?'

Shocked by my memories, 'wow man, this sucks!' I thought worried about what kind of misunderstanding he may have got, 'I didn't mean to cry so much I don't even remember much of the dream or before the dream but grandma was there...' I thought feeling sad "yeah sorry about that" I tried to muster up a smile ,but for my surprise Luffy didn't seem to be interested or anything 'WELL OF COURSE this IS Luffy' I smiled at my thoughts as he stretched not gomu style ,but normally like morning stretches.

I was trying to find out if he has abs or not, only to be brought out of my thoughts by the cough of a certain smirking orange head. "Relina I need to go shopping show me the best mall around here, the cheapest too" she ordered and I gave her my best are you kidding look "was that a request?" I asked she smiled "please" I sighed walking out of the room with her "sure... but exactly what do you wanna shop for?" I asked curious "clothes of course" she grinned "and a few souvenirs " she whispered I giggled "got it!" I winked as we both high fived.

'weird' I thought getting changed 'I haven't went shopping in AGES' I looked in the mirror I wore short brown pants a shirt and a coat longer than the shorts my boots were long but didn't reach my knees I sighed "I don't even need to go shopping, she always buys me clothes or just gives me hers" I mumbled pouting slightly 'why can't I enjoy shopping?' I wondered as I grabbed my keys and bag.

I met Nami by the door Robin was with her along with Sanji, Ussop, Franky, Chopper ,Zoro 'and LUFFY!?' I thought 'why are so many people going shopping?' "Reli-chan!" Sanji cheered "Hey" I smiled "Relina!" Nami noticed me looking rather shocked.

"how are we gonna go there?" she asked stopping me in my tracks 'shit I didn't think of that' I frowned "hmmm" I was deep in thought as I walked down the front steps I sighed "maybe we should use the car" I thought out loud "YOU HAVE A CAR!?" all except Robin mouth gaped as they shouted "just how rich are you?" Nami asked as I glared "I AM NOT RICH!" I shouted "just lucky.." I mumbled looking to the side as I walked towards the garage "guys wait here I'm going to bring the car to the front" I said before going to the garage to get the car.

"I sure hope they don't get surprised" I thought 'today is Wednesday!' I thought unlocking the car. I sighed as I sat in the driver's seat 'Driving this thing sure never gets old' I smirked as I drove out of the garage.

Nami's (Pov)

'She's such a weird kid' I thought as I high fived her 'she's so cheerful yet something seems quite off about her' I thought as I smiled and walked to my room I entered, Robin was sitting on the couch as she read a book about history I believe. "Something bothering you?" she asked turning to a new page in her book I stared at her blinked twice and said "not really but..." I trailed off "something seems fishy about that girl.." I mumbled she closed her book and smiled at me "But she seems so nice she accepted us in her house and I assume is going to go shopping with us" she said.'Still...' I thought "I don't know" I exclaimed rushing out of the room.

I went to drag the others out of their beds. "WAKE UP ALREADY!" I snapped at Ussop and Franky as I threw two books that were lying around at them. "NAMI! DO YOU WANT TO KILL ME!?" Ussop screamed as I gave him my Not my intention but it's still cool look. It was easier when it came to Zoro and Sanji all I had to do was knock Sanji out, he would go mellorine mellorine and knock Zoro out then they would both fight till I ask Sanji to do something for me.

After all the crew assembled all we needed to do was wait for Relina outside 'we don't have much clothes and we need tons of other thing, it was a good idea to bring some money with me' I thought looking in my bag at the money in there 'I just hope it's enough' "okay guys here are your shares of the money" I handed each member some cash "If you don't spend it wisely I will skin you alive" I threatened and sighed when Luffy went on doing something ridiculous with Chopper and Ussop in his tail.

Now I wasn't being modest or anything but the moment Relina went out the door I could see sparkles around her. 'wow she's really pretty' I thought, it was worth admitting she was pretty long shiny dark brown hair and green eyes with pale skin. Most importantly her style was way over the top 'what's with the brands and absolutely different style' I thought. Sanji of course was the first to comment he squeaked and went all "Reli-chan you look glorious and beautiful" it was funny seeing a guy acting so weird toward girls.

she smiled as the wind played with her hair and the sun made it glow to a golden shade, "hey" she said. That awkward moment when you see your captain sweating beads and comes shacking to your side and tries to hide behind you. I smirked looking at him but tried hard not to make him feel uncomfortable Luffy was really childish when it came to this stuff he didn't like girls hugging or fussing over him, although he was kind of cute. "How are we gonna go there?" I asked just remembering said issue and I believe she didn't think about that either.

She frowned slightly getting down the front steps and she sighed "maybe we should use the car" she mumbled,"YOU HAVE A CAR!?" I gasped noticing that I wasn't the only one extremely shocked by her statement, "just how rich are you?" I asked teasingly she glared at me shouting "I AM NOT RICH!" she looked to the side and mumbled something and all I could hear was "just lucky..." she walked away and told us to stay put as she brought the car to the front. I could notice Luffy relaxing slightly 'why was he so tensed?' I pouted not having a single idea 'does he actually like Relina?' I thought glancing at him, he was deep in though a rare act for our idiotic captain I stifled a laugh. Ussop noticed and came quickly asking what I was laughing about I straightened and told him it was nothing.

'Wow Luffy liking someone is something I just NEVER COULD HAVE IMAGINED' I thought 'and for it to be Relina! exactly WHAT happened between them last night' I snickered at how wrong that sounds I turned to where he was dancing and singing with Chopper 'Maybe I'm over thinking about this' I smiled at them not noticing the chuckling Robin, and suspicious eyes from Zoro.
