A.N. …..Like always I have nothing to say, so let's get on with the story, shall we? :}

Law's POV

I looked through the blond and green haired men lying in the bed Luffy-ya and me were in not too long ago. I sighed and looked at the same cheerful man next to me. "So they are your roommates?"

He nodded with a grin on his face. "Yep, the four of us rent a small house."

"Four?"

"Yea, there's Usopp too! He's also in the list."

I nodded; seeing his friends made me feel a little uneasy, I know him for such short time, though it feels like ages. For some reason, right from the start we acted familiar, there were no shyness or awkwardness between us… I felt something tug my sleeve and looked at Luffy-ya. "Ne Traffy?"

"Yea?" I fumed with a small smile on my lips; just seeing his smiling face makes me feel better.

"When we will be able to go to eat? I'm hungry."

I chuckled, leaned and put a small peck on his lips. "We can eat now if you want to."

Luffy-ya's eyes immediately lit up as I mentioned food; he's such a simple guy… he took my hand and dragged me out of my room. We got out to the corridor, so he stopped and looked at right then at left and finally at me. "Which way to we need to go?"

I tilted my head at the corridor leading to the dining hall and the smaller male immediately started dragging me towards there. His enthusiasm is quite amusing, though almost every new thing I learn about him makes me like him even more…

I shook my head; is this is what counterpart is? A person who you'll love for every single thing? Am I already in love? Luffy-ya stopped at the dining hall doors. "Where now?"

"Further down the corridor."

The smaller raven head continued his dragging; hmmm, I don't like being dragged… "Luffy-ya." He turned his head at me. "Don't you think it would be easier to walk if you just hold my arm instead of dragging?"

Luffy-ya's face lit up. "You're right!"

He released my sleeve and put his hand in mine, I squeezed it and he squeezed back; so much better… The corridor made a turn and just after it there was a small door, it was smaller than dining halls', but it was that didn't mean that they weren't decorated. It was made from simple wood that had tiny windows in it, well more like tiny holes with glass on them, they weren't big enough to see the inside of the kitchen, but created a nice view.

Luffy-ya looked at the door excited and then looked at me. "Is this it?"

I nodded and he opened the door, we walked in a spacious (well all rooms in this mansion are spacious…) room with a lot of necessary equipment, two big fridges by the wall, a big oven and a lot of cabinets. In the middle of the room here stood a big table which had its surface made from metal. By it sat Penguin and Shachi with cups of tea in their hands.

The moment we walked in they jumped up and ran to me. "Captain!"

"No."

They stopped running midway with disappointed expression on their faces. "Alright."

Penguin looked over Luffy-ya with interest. "Hi my name is Pen…"

"Food!" Luffy-ya let go of my hand and ran to fridge. "I'm so hungry!"

He started jumping up and down and opened the fridge, Penguin immediately appeared next to him. "No! Don't touch the fridge! I'm responsible for cooking and I don't need anyone touching its contents, if you want something - ask!"

I watched amused as they stared at each other, but then suddenly Luffy-ya's stomach rumbled and he sighed. "Can I get meat please?"

For a moment Penguin didn't answer, but the he nodded. "Okay, but you have to wait."

Penguin started searching for things he needs, but Luffy-ya stayed glued to him in silence, I chuckled at the scene when Penguin opened the fridge door and Luffy-ya managed to stick his head in it. I could see Penguin get annoyed by every passing second; maybe it would be better if he let the poor Penguin work… "Luffy-ya." He glanced at me. "Why don't you come and sit with me?"

He grinned to me and in a moment was sitting on my lap grinning happily, I smirked, wrapped my hands around his waist and put my chin on his shoulder. I glanced at his face and saw that it was slightly blushed; he's just too cute… Soon Shachi put a plate of snacks in front of us and Luffy-ya started eating.

-II-

After the meal we went back to my room. "So tell me more about those people which you found something about while I was changing."

Luffy-ya was sitting on my desk with some papers in his hand and was swinging his legs. "Well the one with number two was Chase Smoker, he's a detective in Grand Line city police's main office, it seems he's in charge of complicated missing people cases and he's probably in search for me."

I nodded; that's quite a lot of information he got there… "How do you plan on reaching him?"

He grinned. "It seems that Detective Smoker was under supervision of my grandfather, so I have a hunch that he will find me himself, so we just need a bottle of that misty drink with us at all times."

He pointed at the three bottles lying on the table; when did they get here? When we came back with Luffy-ya's roommates they weren't here; did someone brought them when we were out? Probably. "Okay, so we know about the detective, what about number three?"

"His name is Marco Phoenix and he's one of my brother's colleagues."

I raised my eyebrow. "I though you said you don't know the first two people?"

Luffy-ya nodded. "I don't, my brother tries not to mix his work with his family, though it doesn't work out as our grandpa is a police chief and our brother is a procurator, so I don't know his colleagues."

I nodded. "So when are you going to change him?"

The younger male grinned. "Soon, along with my brothers, well of course if you don't mind…"

I shrugged. "Maat left it to you and I trust your decisions." I took his hand and kissed his palm. "So do however you please."

I took Luffy-ya by his chin and started pulling him closer to my face, so I could kiss him, but the door suddenly opened. "Captain, captain, a strange car just pulled up in…"

I pulled away from Luffy-ya and glared at Penguin; why do we get interrupted almost every time I try to kiss him? "Finish."

Stunned Penguin shook his head to get out of the daze he was in. "Oh, right! Some strange car just pulled up in front of our mansion and two strange men got out of it, now they're simply standing by it and talking!"

The smaller raven hair pulled some paper from his stash and showed it to Penguin. "Does one of them look like this?"

I glanced at the paper and saw that it was a picture of our number two – detective Smoker. "Yea! That's him! One of those guys!"

Luffy-ya's face became thoughtful as he put the picture back on the table. "I thought it would take a day or two to get here, but it seems better than I thought…" He jumped from the table. "Well let's greet our guests." He turned at me. "You know, I totally suck at laying, so you will have to make the partner leave."

I stood up and felt a smirk appear on my lips. "Don't worry, I know my way with words." I turned at Penguin, who was still standing in the doorway. "We will take care of our guests, so get ready living room for tea."

Penguin nodded and rushed out of the room, I turned at Luffy-ya. "It's time to greet our guests."

He grinned and took my hand. "Let's go!"

When we were almost by front door the doorbell rang. "It seems our guests are already here."

In several moments we were by the door, Luffy-ya opened them and I saw his eyes widen. "Ace?"

A.N. My social life got the better of me and on Saturday I will go on a trip, so no updates then (probably, I could try to get one late at night when I come back, but I might be very tired…). But I will try to make two chapters tomorrow! Hope you enjoyed! :}
