Rival:-
Plot bunny from- NachtWolke for 50th review bait.
A month after our anniversary I was carrying the grudge of many who loved my husband. The return from DressRosa was never liked by either Luffy or me. The photographs of trip ignited another row which got fuel from the innocent and detailed narration from Luffy. The anniversary present for Luffy was another reason why I sealed my top position in hit list of countless.
I gifted Luffy a bicycle as I felt dropping him in and out of school was restricting his growth. A healthy mind needs freedom. Like always Garp was shouting and I paid no heeds. Of all the things I did I earned trust of Shanks and Dragon and before taking any step concerning Luffy I consulted them. Both Shanks and Dragon felt Garp was going overboard with his care.
Akainu thought this gift would give Luffy more air and he would mix with filthy commoners. As if it mattered a tiny bit to me. My father had no say as his happiness laid in the anniversary photos I took of Luffy. No one knew what I was about to do to Luffy in DressRosa. If those brothers had the slightest hints they would kill me.
Tring..Shishishi...Tring..Shishishi..Tring...Shishishi.. I could hear the bell of the bicycle and its owner's laugh. My little husband was playing with ShuShu in our huge estate. He was glowing under the sun and I was looking at him from the window of our library. I closed my book and decided to do some physical activity myself. Kikoku my sword was hanging on the wall waiting to be pampered. Though I had let Luffy go wild his protection was my duty.
I took Kikoku and walked towards our dojo to have some practice. I was fast at cutting things but I could be faster. As I entered the dojo Tashigi was already swinging her sword and was deep in practice. "Long time no see" Tashigi spoke. "You saw me in the morning moron" I spoke. "Shut up, I am talking to your sword" Tashigi snapped.
"Kikoku says hi" I retorted. "Want to practice with me?" Tasighi asked. "Sure, it's been ages I chopped something" I grinned. "We are here to practice not kill" Tashigi swung the first move. Indeed I had lost my touch since I barely dogged her. "Law you are really out of practice" and the swordswoman began her dance. Tashigi had grown stronger in these years I had no doubt. But to challenge me she must have had a really great trainer.
"Here let me help you relax the joints" I offered to massage her shoulders after two hours of fighting. "Thanks, you fighting with me will help in improving my grades" Tashigi smiled. "Grades for what?" I asked. "It's for my finals fool. I have top rank in every paper but to get into best department in police I need to score above 80 in fighting skills in every style. I lack great skills in sword fight, I am just better than ordinary swordsman" Tashigi sighed. "We can train everyday than, until your exams. Which department are you looking for?" I asked. "G-5" Tashigi smiled.
"Law you are graduating as a doctor too" Tashigi asked. "Yeah I know" I smirked. "What about your next course?" Tashigi asked. "With my child raising abilities I can clearly get into paediatrics but I will opt for cardiology" I informed. "For that you have to go to Capital right?" Tashigi asked. "Yeah they will hold us there for one month, give us test and then decide if we can study cardiology or not" I slouched on the wall.
"One month?" Tashigi raised an eyebrow. "Yeah" I nodded. "What about Luffy-kun?" Tashigi asked. "I can't take him with me. I thought of dropping him to his brothers. But if I do I will never see my husband again" I laughed. "Let's hope you are called when I am done with exams. I can manage a month with him" Tashigi patted my back. "Thank you" I really respected her for loving Luffy.
My sword fighting became a regular event with Tashigi, before I knew I had two living beings as audience. One happened to be wagging his tail and another shaking his head in excitement. Luffy would sit in the furthest corner with ShuShu and clap at our good moves and cheer Tashigi mainly. He had a different connection with Tashigi which I could see. Luffy's cheering up helped Tashigi prepare well.
"Go Tashi... Go Tashi goooo..." I could hear the fourteen year old boy cheering up. "ShuShu look Tashi-nee is doing her best. This cheering went on for one week until the dates for Tashigi's exam arrived. We wished her luck and hoped her to graduate with flying colours. Tashigi was gone for next one week and my chance to impress my husband was over.
But I decided to practice with my sword none the less in afternoons as I was given study leave for finals. Two afternoons later my concentration broke when I heard bicycle bell ringing. "Law-san" an irritating voice called me. "Law-san! Law-san" I walked out quickly to shut the voice. "Nose-ya why are you here with Luffy-ya?" I asked two school students dragging their feet on my house. "I just came to drop Luffy here" Ussop was shivering. "What happened?" I glared at this big liar.
"Traffy I am tired" Luffy walked into my arms. "He had a big fight in school today and now he is in pain. I bought him on the cycle, I have to hurry home or else they will beat me up" Ussop looked dead worried. "Nose-ya, relax my driver-ya will drop you home. By the way did they win?" my blood was boiling at thought of defeated Luffy. "No Luffy kicked their asses. It's just he got beaten up badly" simply great was my thought.
I took Luffy to our bedroom after Ussop left; his face was swelled up from one side. He had cuts on arms and leg. I stripped him of his soiled shirt and took him to the bath tub. "I want to sleep" he complained. "Shut up you idiot. I will clean you, apply medicine on wounds and then you will sleep" I scolded. "I won" he gave a grin. "Yeah yeah, if you come in broken pieces its better you lose without a scratch" I bonked his head.
"But I won" he did not get my point. "Tomorrow afternoon, I will train you. No husband of mine comes home painted black and blue. I will train you in art of fighting. You are just brute strength. You have to use it properly. Maximum result with minimum input" I began rubbing his back with the towel. "Traffy can fight without swords like Zoro?" he asked with excitement. "Hell yeah" I smirked. He had no idea what I was capable of. I would teach him to kick asses without much work. I was going to refine his inner demon; I hated the idea of Luffy ever losing a fight.
Next one week after school every afternoon I would teach Luffy the techniques of hand to hand combat. To my surprise he was well versed in basics of hand combating. He informed me his brothers had joined Army for a year or two and helped him learn basics. When I handed him sword he held it fine. Zoro and Shanks had done their part well. All I did was refine and upgrade his present methods. Only problem with him was his fleeting concentration and love for shiny things including my sword.
"Tell me something how many people did you fight last week when you came back like a fallen leaf?" I asked him ten days later, as I began messaging his shoulder blades. His neck was so smooth and thin; if I wanted I could crack it at one blow. But all I saw was a beautiful neck inviting to kiss it. I sat behind him on pretext of messaging the knots on back I quickly planted a kiss on his neck.
"I fought twelve people" he grinned. I slapped myself mentally; even if I was a hitman fighting ten people would tire me out. "Twelve! Wow and from which year they were Luffy-ya?" I asked. "They are final year people I guess" he smiled. "My training you was practically honing you into an atom bomb" I ruffled his hair. "Don't know but Jimbe said my concentration increased after you trained me. Now when I hit ball I don't break the polls" what a beautiful smile he had.
I decided to train him in controlling his wild strength and lack of sense of movements. Suddenly I registered my husband had not gone to school for three days. He was not sick and he was happy, something was bothering him. "Luffy-ya why are you not going to school?" I asked. "I don't feel like" he said flatly, but it was pure lie as his pouting lips betrayed him. "Oye, tell me" I held his chin in my palms and turned his face towards me. He was making puppy eyes.
"Tell me" I glared. "There is a girl who is bothering me in school, she wants to fight me. Since Traffy said not to hit a girl I am avoiding school" he actually heeded my words. First thing that clinked my brain was Luffy had a crush on some girl so he was unable to fight her. My heart broke a little. "Who is she? Some junior of yours? Did she say something to you?" I sat opposite to him.
"No she is my senior! I don't want to fight her or talk to her" Luffy pouted. "What has she done that you are avoiding school for?" avoiding school was bloody big deal. "She wants me to take responsibility. She says I am responsible for her current sate, she can't sleep or eat because I broke her heart. Only cure is to fight her so that her win eases her pain" Luffy gave an expression of guilt I had never seen before. That girl loved Luffy so she was bothering Luffy and my husband must have liked her in some way. My heart crumbled further.
"What did you do to her?" I asked trying to hide my sad voice. "I don't know but she is bothering me" my husband crossed his arms. "Why is that you can't bring to hit her? I feel proud you did not take the path of violence, but why you can't?" curiosity killed the cat I knew it well. "She was kind to Ussop, that's why" such honest reply and I died. She was a kind girl and if she was a senior she must have developed her body to attract my husband who fell under the spell of puberty.
"Do you like her Luffy-ya?" the words slipped before my mind could put a stop. "I don't dislike her" why was he so oblivious and truthful. "Monkey D Luffy" a loud voice was shouting at our courtyard. "Traffy it's her" Luffy crawled behind my back. "It's the girl from your school? She followed you till home" I asked. "Yes" he gulped his voice. "Let's meet her" I pulled my husband towards the huge entrance. "Monkey D Luffy come out!" she was as loud as Luffy. "Please Traffy" Luffy pouted. "No it's a girl banging on my door, come on" I pulled him.
"MONKEY D LUFFY!" now it was noise pollution. "Excuse me young lady you can call for Luffy-ya peacefully" I walked towards a creature in white tank top exposing her young cleavage and navel and thigh high brown shorts teamed with knee high boots and long annoying pink hair donned with a cap. She was seventeen if I calculated well and she smelled of arrogance and stubbornness. "Who are you? Where is that strawhat wearing brat?" the girl growled. She had some serious issues with my husband. It pained me more that Luffy had soft corner for her- a brat falling brat. I did not like this girl for obvious reason as she had pink hair.
"Luffy-ya, stop hiding behind me" I pulled my husband out. "No Traffy" Luffy tried to avert his eyes from me and the pink haired girl. "You brat! You are avoiding me by missing school? You are to take responsibility for what you did to me!" Luffy did get love confessions every day, but none of the girls had been so ferocious when Luffy broke their heart with pure innocence. Luffy was pouting and holding my arms like an infant clinging to its mother.
"I said I am sorry" Luffy pouted and he transcended the standards of cuteness. "You said Sorry to her? What did you do Luffy-ya?" I was surprised. "I did nothing" Luffy snapped at me. "If only a sorry got to fix broken heart" the pink haired girl reminded me of a lioness as she thumped her foot. "Excuse me miss who are you?" I asked.
"Jewellery Bonney, his senior at Grand High. I am here to fight Monkey D Luffy" she placed her hands on her crafted waist. "Why are you here?" I asked calmly. "I want to fight with Luffy. He has caused me great pain and broke my heart into two pieces. Only he can fix it back to One Piece!" She yelled. "Woa Woa.. That's lots of anger. How did Luffy-ya break your heart?" I asked.
"He beat up my gang a week back! He insulted me! Now as I am the leader I am bound to avenge my gang and fight him" She yelled. "Luffy-ya what did you to her friends?" Luffy had angered her a lot. "The twelve guys I beat up last week were her gang mates" Luffy informed me softly. "Now fight me" she growled. "No" Luffy pouted. "Why won't you fight her?" I gave up on my quest to explore their problems.
"If I fight her she will become my subordinate and tag behind me" Luffy informed. "What makes you think I will become your subordinate?" the pink haired girl turned medusa. "I am stronger than you idiot! I can beat you up in minutes" Luffy was very serious. "I am a strong girl, just because I am a girl you won't fight me?" now Luffy hurt her ego. "Shut up! Traffy said not to hit girls. If I had my way you would be underground" Luffy was angry. "Who the hell is Traffy?" the pink girl asked.
"Traffy" my husband pointed his fingers towards me. "Why do you care if he says anything or not?" such a short tempered girl. "Traffy is my husband! What he says is most significant!" that fixed my broken heart a little. "You are married!" She looked surprised. "Yeah" my husband nodded. "How long?" the pink haired girl's eyes grew large. "More than a year" Luffy grinned. "Impossible, you are just fourteen!" the pink haired girl was gawking. "Look I have two rings" Luffy showed his rings on finger and hanging in his neck.
"You married this old guy? You married a man?" the girl was smirking. "How's Luffy in licking your ass Mr Traffy?" these seventeen year old brats had no restrain I could see amusement in her eyes. "Traffy is not OLD! Why will I lick Traffy?" Luffy looked confused. "Don't tell me you have not even smooched him?" the girl was giving evil grin; I had already covered Luffy's ears.
"Such a protective man I see" the pink girl laughed. "Luffy you hate it or not you will fight me on Saturday. If I win I take something of yours and if you win I will be your subordinate and if you want playmate I am yours" she winked. Either way it was a win-win case for her. She actually liked Luffy.
"Fine" Luffy grumbled before I could I speak. "We will fight with..." "We will have a food war! The one who wins decides his reward. The reward will only be exchanged if both people agree to it" Luffy suddenly changed his expression. "A food fight?" she was taken aback.
"No one get's hurts, we don't need to consider strength but only our capacity to hold food" okay Luffy was intelligent to my surprise. "Like I said I won't hurt a girl without reason, I can't" Luffy grinned. "Bring it on after all I am the big eater of Grand High" Bonney girl nodded. "Mr. Traffy, you better be prepared as something of his, actually I will claim those maiden pouting beauty on his face" now she angered me. "Its Trafalgar Law for you, Luffy will win" I smirked back; she was directing her twisted liking for Luffy towards me to satisfy herself. We were officially Rivals now!
I had an inkling the Pink haired girl was going to create tons of trouble if I did not nip her feelings in the bud. I wanted Luffy to win because the intentions of the girl changed after she figured out how my relation with Luffy was. "Traffy I think I will lose tomorrow" my husband came flopping to me as I sat on the veranda looking at dark sky. "What on earth are you talking about?" I lost colour of my face. "I will not win tomorrow" he sat by my side.
"Why would you lose? I have faith in your black hole of a stomach. "You are not getting me" my husband pouted. "I will lose it on my own will" he had some fanciful ideas. "Why?" I asked. "To her reputation in school was everything and beating up her gang has hurt her pride. If I lose tomorrow it will make her happy shishishi" he had strangest notions. "Do what you feel like Luffy-ya, but these should not be touched by anyone" I brushed his lips with my thumb. "What about my mouth Traffy?" still naive.
"She might claim your first kiss as her trophy" I whispered in my husband's ears as I quickly planted a kiss on his cheeks. "But I promised Traffy that I will only kiss Traffy" damn innocent! "So figure out a way to lose and not break the promise you made to me" I pulled him up from the veranda and pushed him inside the house.
"Traffy" he turned around to grin at me, something was up his evil brain. "Yeah Luffy-ya?" "This" he touched my lips with his three fingers and then pressed those fingers against his lips. I needed one fucking reason not to eat him up right then and there. "That's cute" I was blushing. "Come let's go to sleep" I dragged him by collar.
Deep down I knew I was far better than my rival, yet that night I could not sleep. The image of that pink haired girl tasting my husband's lips bothered me. The reasons I was worried were obvious, Luffy was a teenager, the pink haired creature was female. It was natural for male to like female. She was young and decent looking. I married Luffy on assumption that a prophecy saying he will be gay. Sadly my husband had never showed any liking for women or men. The Bonney girl happens to be the first he did not want fight. Luffy was love of my life but what was I to him? This insecurity resulted in me hugging Luffy in his sleep whole night.
By the time I reached Luffy's school Luffy and pink haired girl were gobbling food like monsters. Both were seated under the shades made in front of the canteen. It looked a big event as the school clubs were cheering and taking pictures. I could see Boa Hancock peeping from her balcony, I hated women who liked Luffy! The crowd was divided into Luffy fan club and Luffy haters to be exact. The pink haired girl was sitting on right side and it was evident she was damn serious at winning. On left side my dearest husband was laughing at every new dish placed in front of his eyes.
I was informed beforehand that I was to pay for all the food cooked today for this food war, this contributed to the reason I was early to watch the fight. Deep down I was worried about the task the pink haired girl would ask my husband after the win. Luffy had decided he would lose to give her some solace. I was also jealous because I knew Luffy was doing this out of the crush he had on this girl.
"Traooffuuuu" my husband called me out. I waved him my hand; he grinned back and continued eating. Now people were getting tired watching them eat. I took my seat under the tree and waited for the obvious result. Kaya and Ussop stood beside Luffy to cheer him. The pink haired girl had her own supporters. Suddenly I saw my little husband stand up and gulp down all the food at one go and fix his strawhat, he looked up to me and gave the grin which meant he knew what he wanted. "I QQUIIIT" he burped. Every eye looking at Luffy grew large.
"HAHA HAHA! I knew it Strawhat, you are no match to me" the pink haired girl stood up giving a victory dance. "Yup I am no match!" Luffy grinned. "Now for my reward" she walked towards Luffy. "What do you want?" my husband asked. "How about I get to taste your lips?" she grinned. "Does human meat taste good?" my husband tilted his head.
"No you moron! I want to kiss you" she grumbled. "Why? I thought you wanted reward? You want shiny things right?" ignorance was real bliss. "I want to steal your first kiss on the lips. It will be equal revenge. You broke my heart by beating up my gang. I hurt you by stealing your kiss" she crossed her arms. "Oi Ussop Kaya does it hurt when you both kiss on the lips?" my husband asked his friends who began blushing.
Unconsciously my feet moved because my husband's damn caring attitude was going to ignite a reaction. I could see the pink haired girl bickering on trying to explain her idea of pain. That foolish girl did not understand my husband had a soft corner for her. If she properly explained she might get the kiss. The very idea of my husband wrestling someone else's lips infuriated me. My blood was boiling I so wished my sword was with me, I dropped my bag pack on the floor and pulled out the jacket as I was feeling heat rise inside me. I was scissoring my way up to the shade where my little husband was. I could hear nothing or see anything beyond my husband who was standing ten centimetre away from the pink haired girl.
"I want to kiss you" she yelled. "I don't want to! I promised Traffy that I will only Kiss him!" my husband yelled louder and this made me happy suddenly. "Reward is reward, you accepted defeat" she growled. "I don't care, I can only give you the reward if I like it and agree to it" my husband yelled louder. "Damn it brat I don't care" she pulled my husband by his red vest and turned around to smirk at me. "Luffy-ya get away from her" I shouted and his eyes grew large. The girl closed her eyes and forwarded her pink lips to my husband. I ran!
"What the hell is this?" the pink haired girl opened her eyes to find her lips kissing the strawhat. My husband hid his face with the hat. "You cheated!" she choked as next moment I shoved her against the wall. "What's with you Strawhat's husband?" she tried to break free from my grab.
"I am a doctor and ex-ruffian, I know hundred ways to kill you. Just because I asked Luffy-ya not to hit a girl, you are alive" I flashed my dark eyes to her. "Those tattoos- you are the Famous Surgeon of Death?" she was trembling. "So you noticed? I am still popular huh? Then stay away from Luffy-ya and if you utter one word about my past to him I won't forgive. From today onwards stay away from Luffy-ya" I softly informed her. Everyone in the crowd saw what I did but did not hear my words. To them I was a jealous husband saving his spouse from being kissed by some pest. I left her trembling against the wall.
"Shishishi... my hat comes handy" my husband sat up obvious to my deeds. "Traffy, sorry I lost" he grinned. "Not to worry Luffy-ya, your friend is happy right?" I asked the pink haired girl and gave my hand to Luffy to grab it. "Yeah brat I am happy! I don't need any reward from you. Just leave me alone" she was furious. My treats were still effective. "Law-san is scary" Ussop ran to the corner with Kaya laughing.
"Yosh Traffy let's go" my husband clung to my arms. "You bought your bicycle?" I asked. "No I left it! I thought she would ask for my bicycle. All she wanted was to kiss me like you told before! Idiot! Who asks a kiss when they can ask for shiny things. Ussop Kaya we are leaving? Do you want us to drop you? Traffy is driving" my husband asked his friends. "No Luffy we are fine" Ussop waved his hand.
"Where do you want to go?" I asked while walking out of the gate, everyone in the crowd made way for us out of fear. "Can we go to some burger joint? I am hungry" my husband pouted. "You really have a black hole for stomach" I ruffled his hair. "Excuse me" a heavy voice called us from behind. "Trafalgar Law. Will you pay for the food we cooked here Sir?" an old man asked. "Sure" I pulled out my card and swiped in the machine the old man was carrying. "Thank you" he mumbled and left.
"Luffy-ya you really cost me fortune" I pulled him by waist. My heart was still unsettled at the thought of Luffy having a crush on that Bonney girl. "Traffy, sorry" he melted in my arms. "Say Luffy-ya, do you love that pink haired girl Bonney?" I asked. "Nope, I wanted to punch her" my husband mumbled. "Huh? I thought you cared for her" I was surprised.
"No! I respected her when she helped Ussop. But she tried to hurt Traffy by kissing me right? I wanted to hit her when you hung her by the neck against the wall. No one hurts my Traffy" my husband yelled. "You will be the death of me. I am so happy" a burden left my heart, Luffy had no feelings for that pink haired girl. "I will never be your death Traffy" he punched me on shoulder. "That hurts" I yelled. "Good" he grinned and hugged me hard.
"I was worried" I crushed him with a hug. "Why were you worried?" Luffy looked up. "I thought you fell in love with her" I pressed my aching temples. "Traffy is silly. Traffy should know I will be with Traffy forever" my husband laughed and broke from the embrace to open the car door.
"Hold on a second" I steadied him in front of the car. "Why?" my husband asked. "The light is perfect for a photograph" I took out my camera from my bag pack and clicked his pictures. "Traffy loves taking pictures" my husband laughed. "I only love taking your pictures" I informed him. "Do I make Traffy happy?" my husband asked. I placed three fingers on his lips and then pressed them against mine. "You are the only one who makes me happy" I grinned and he jumped onto me to give a bear hug. I was mad for him.

Anita2000- you gave me a heart attack with the 49th review. But thank you so much for loving this story.
Nachtwolke- aka Night Cloud happens to be our 50th review. This idea of a girl attempting to kiss Luffy came from her. So thank you dear to let me explore such a nice plot and help develop character of both Law and Luffy. I am glad you liked last chapter as well. Do tell me if you like this chapter.
This chapter happened because of two reason- my 50th review bait and Nachtwolke giving the 50th review. After lot of brooding and self discussing and asking Nachtwolke we decided on Bonney. Since I am using almost all characters from One Piece universe, why not her. Nachtwolke wanted to see the reaction of Law if someone a girl especially attempted to kiss Luffy. I hope I did justice to her plot bunny. Next review bait is 100 :p yup I am greedy, sorry just kidding. But the one who gives 100 review you will be death of me! We are 55 reviews I am so happy, it's my first story to earn so many favourites and follows! I am weeping...
(T_T)/ love you all...
