A.N: Sorry for the long wait!
Chapter 11: Ordinary Saturday
Usopp sighed; he was tired of listening how Margaret and even Kaya went on and on about Ace. He would have had better ways to spend his Saturday afternoon than sitting in a café listening about some brainless pop star.
"He was so much different than I always thought!" Margaret told.
"An idiot?" Usopp asked.
"Usopp-san!" Kaya scolded.
"Yeah yeah, sorry" the long nose said, sighing.
"He was so incredibly ordinary" Margaret said with a dreamy look on her face.
"Told you he´s nothing special" Usopp said.
"Oh yes he is!" Margaret protested "Just not the way we thought he was!"
"Can´t we talk about something else?" Usopp asked, but the girls ignored him.
"He did seem a bit nervous, tough" Kaya said, making Margaret nod in agreement.
"Maybe he´s just a sissy"
"Usopp-san!" Kaya scolded.
"Who´re you to talk?" Margaret asked. Usopp tsked.
"Whatever; I´m going home" Usopp said, adding a lie "I promised Chopper to help him with his math homework"
Kaya knew Usopp was lying; Chopper didn´t need help with math. However, she didn´t say anything as Usopp left their table.

"I´m home" Usopp called as he opened the door.
"Welcome back, Usopp bro" Franky said "Had a nice date?"
"It wasn´t a date; Margaret was there too" Usopp told, making Franky raise an eyebrow "Threesome?"
Franky laughed as Usopp glared at him.
"Where´s Luffy?" the long nose asked, trying to change the subject.
"In his room with that orange haired chick, doing what I have no idea" Franky replied.
"With Nami?" Usopp thought "Okay, thanks"
"Usopp you´re home!" Chopper cheered as he saw the long nose "How was your date?"
"Not you too…" Usopp whined "What are Luffy and Nami doing?"
"She´s helping Luffy with his geography homework" Chopper replied "Luffy really needs help, according to her and Shanks"
"How can Luffy afford her help?" Usopp thought out aloud, making Chopper look at him with confusion.
"She made everyone, me included, pay for her help" Usopp explained "And believe me; her taxes were high. There´s no way Luffy could afford them!"
Chopper shrugged, saying: "Maybe Luffy´s helping her with something?"
"Name even one subject where Luffy´s good at" Usopp said. Chopper thought for a moment before saying: "P.E?"
"Doesn´t count" Usopp said "Are you sure she´s helping him with homework?"
Chopper nodded, asking: "What else could they be doing?"
"Nothing" Usopp said with a sigh. He was not going to be the one to explain Chopper about those things.

Nami sighed; teaching this idiot was hard. She didn´t even really have motivation since she was doing this for free… she wasn´t trying to be helpful tough, she had her own reasons for doing this. She had heard Luffy and Zoro´s conversation earlier in the class and knew Portgas D. Ace was Luffy´s older brother. That´s when she had made a plan, but the fact that Ace and Luffy weren´t in good terms made things harder. She was planning on getting in Luffy´s good side, help him and Ace to make up, which reminded her that she still needed to find out why they were fighting, and then with Luffy´s help to get information about different countries all over the world from Ace. Sure getting information was easy these days because of the internet, but information from someone who had experience was always better. And she knew Ace had been in many places for his concerts; she had looked that up.
"Nami? You okay?" Luffy asked suddenly, causing Nami to look at him.
"Yeah" she said "Why?"
"You were just staring at the wall" Luffy replied "It´s not gonna run away even if you don´t look at it, you know"
"I know that, idiot!" Nami yelled, hitting the boy on the head. Maybe this wasn´t so good idea after all…

Kohza was doing homework with Vivi in her room when he got a text message.
"Who is it from?" Vivi asked, looking up.
"Let´s see" Kohza said, taking his phone out and smiling as he read the message.
"Is it from Law?" Vivi asked. Kohza nodded with a smile, showing the message to Vivi.
"Meet me at Raftell´s yard in your lunch break Monday afternoon" Vivi read aloud, raising an eyebrow "Why is he coming to see you in to the school?"
"I don´t know; he has never done that" Kohza said, still smiling. Trafalgar Law was few years older than Kohza and was studying in college to become a doctor. He was dark, calm and sadistic, but he and the blonde had one thing in common: they were both in the closet. They had been dating about three months, and the only one who knew was Vivi. She had caught Kohza and Law in action one day, so it was pretty hard to keep it as a secret anymore… well anyway, going off topic.
"Are you two still in the closet?" Vivi asked suddenly.
"Yes we are and we´re not coming out anytime soon" Kohza said "So please, don´t say anything to anyone about me and Law"
"Of course not" Vivi said "You´ll tell the others when you´re ready"
"I hope they know how to knock" Kohza mumbled, making Vivi blush.
"I didn´t do it on purpose" the girl mumbled, depressed.
"Yeah, I know"
A.N: Short one, I know. I suppose this could be called some kind of filler since I originally planned that Ace would go to school in this chapter, but then I got these ideas… and Law is finally here! He was supposed to be in the party, but I kind of forgot. Hehe, sorry. And in case someone forgot, Raftell is their school. By the way, have I told which year Margaret and Kaya are in? Anyway, review!
