Hikarubhel: I understand the confusion but remember that Luffy and Nami is the first pairing and the other pairs will come in due time.

Luffy's Secret
Disclaimer: I don't own One Piece.
It is a week since the adventure on Ferla-Dantruss and so the Strawhat Pirates are on their way with an additional crew and a mature captain to lead the way. Now they have a good idea the New World is like, the Strawhats had practiced not sleeping at night if another island like that comes out someday. Nami had a plan on that practice which said to not sleep on tomorrow night so she is napping in the women's quarters while her memoires came to her again; She is on the Sunny with the rest of the Senior Strawhats looking at the island in the horizon holding Luffy's hand; the island had an ancient town in a giant hole in a mountain as she noticed that there wasn't any men in town, only the male Strawhats; she saw herself in a room alone looking at a album when she came across a shocking picture: it showed Luffy with another woman during a wedding…and she woke up.
Nami was even more frightened and even more confused,
"Why? Luffy was already married so why he try to be my fiancé?" Thoughts raced through her head as she got an angry look on her as she stormed out and found Luffy sitting on the rail. She sneaked up on him and hit him on the back of his head and he fell into the sea!
"Oh no," Nami just wanted to hit him, not drown him "LUFFY!" Nami dive in after her captain with guilt but she found out the hard way that the seas of the New World aren't a bit like the rest and the sea defeated her. She fell into a dream-like trance where she saw that she was in a vast space of nothingness than the Sunny appeared.
She was happy but she saw that no one seemed to miss her; in fact they had another navigator on aboard and not her! She tried to look away but then see saw that Luffy was with that woman she saw in her memoires which made her cry again. As she fled from the terrible sights when she saw Luffy again but looking at her alone, he was larger than her with a black aura surrounding him and had piercing red eyes and he spoke;
"Nami I am tired of you always pushing me around! Me, who became the Pirate King, guess what, I don't need you anymore because I found another navigator that is better than you and actually treats like I am supposed to! We don't need a navigator that always bosses us 24/7! If you want to draw a map around the world, do it yourself! It is not of my business, or of my interest! Nami, I only asked you to join because of your skill so I can make to the New World and so I can dump you for even better crew members!" Nami was very scared and hurt by what her beloved captain yell like that when the rest of the crew appeared in the same state as Luffy.
Nami was even more scared,
"But Luffy…"
"Silence! We don't need to hear your voice anymore!"
"You always throw away my swords when I need them the most!"
"You always said that you understand my feelings but you were lying!"
"I am so ashamed to have fallen for you and always gave you food!"
"Why did you do it even when I helped you get better?"
"Some sister you could have been to me!"
"I thought you would have been a lot prettier but in the new world, you are ugly! Yo-ho-ho, I will only sing to you dead-when you can't hear!" The dark pirates all shouted their hatred at the poor Nami as she finally cried; she cried so much that the pirates just brushed it off and left her. That was when the black nothingness became white.
Nami felt like she was in bed with warm covers on her; she was indeed, in her room where she left and almost killed her captain. She was tired from her nightmare so she nodded off hoping not to see it again. She saw instead another memory, only one this time; she was lost in a dark place trying to find her way when she came across a stone engraved with letter saying 'Boa Hancock…the most beautiful woman in the world…loving husband of Monkey D. Luffy the Pirate King…may you rest in peace'! Nami finally connected the dots; the album, the hug, and the kingdom! Luffy was a window of Hancock hoping to make Nami part of his family!
With that figured out, Nami hurry arose from bed to fall in a pair of arms she recognized as they belonged to someone. She hugged the owner who seemed to be surprised but Nami knew why easily because she began kiss the man who turned out the Luffy. Luffy sensed what Nami was thinking because of his Haki so he gave in to the kiss which made Nami cry in happiness. Soon however, she ended the kiss to gasp for breath and they both chuckled along.
Nami went into the comfort of her lover's arms that kept her warm,
"Thank you…" Nami said under her breath while drying her tears "Luffy can you forgive me?" The captain went silent which made Nami worried, 'maybe he will say no and kick me off the crew—' Nami's thoughts were interrupted by another kiss on the lips by Luffy this time. She was really confused this time but at the same time, she felt happy and confident about her loyal captain.
After Luffy broke up the kiss, he finally spoke,
"I could always forgive you, but I did something I shouldn't have done so can you forgive me?" Nami was really taken by Luffy's honest words and she nodded,
"Yes, I forgive you Luffy." Luffy smiled for the first time since that incident; Nami met the rest of the crew explaining that Luffy managed to grab hold on the Sunny when he fell and saved Nami from drowning by keeping her above the sea just in time for the others to pull him aboard and treat Nami. No more secrets left for Nami; she is now Luffy's lover after his late wife.
