Meeting a Friend

Doflamingo stared at the sleeping, peaceful face of his current love and housemate. He couldn't believe, at first, what he had read in those papers that Law brought home. It had been the day before when Law just up and disappeared from the house without saying a word to him about leaving.

...

When he found out that Law was no longer in the house, he almost had a panic attack. Yes, Doflamingo was very protective and possessive of Law. I mean, he loved him and had grown attached to him over their time spent together. Not to mention that he enjoyed Law's reactions when they masturbated together.

It took him about three hours to realize that Law was gone. Mostly due to him thinking about Law in the uniform. It had fit him perfectly and he looked identical to Captain Trafalgar. He had even jerked off to the memory of Law walking around in it.

As soon as he realized that Law wasn't there, he started to sulk because he didn't think Law trusted him enough to tell him that he was going out. After a bit, Law called him and asked him about his birthday. It was odd and he asked him why. The man told him he had a surprise for him. That confused him and put fear in his heart. One of the most memorable surprises he got was the death of the man he loved for a very long time and never had the chance to tell him how he felt.

About an hour after he had called him, Law's car pulled up in the driveway. But a blue truck was right behind him. That made Doflamingo feel that the person was after Law. A man with long, blond hair exited and walked up to Law. He could see him tense up before relaxing. Doflamingo chalked it up to Law knowing him.

They talked for a few minutes and he growled when the man put his hand on Law's shoulder. After a minute or so, the guy walked back to his truck and left. That was when Law came inside. Of course, Doflamingo wanted to know who he was. There was no way in hell he was going to have a rival over Law.

Law told him that he was just a friend. He had explained why he followed him home and where he knew him from. It made him feel a whole lot better to know that the man was only a friend of his. After that, he followed Law to the living room before watching him set an envelope on the table.

Being nosy, Doflamingo asked him what it was. Law told him to just look inside at it before falling asleep on the couch. Being who he was, he did as he said and opened it. It was clear that Law had seen the contents before him because the seal was broken.

When Doflamingo pulled the papers inside out, he almost dropped them on the floor. There had to be some trick Law was playing on him. There was just no way that it was true. Doflamingo only had been joking that Law was probably a descendent of Captain Trafalgar. Or, Captain Trafalgar D. Water Law.

...

Looking away from Law, Doflamingo looked back at the papers in his hand. He was trying to remember all the things that the two had in common that he noticed. From the way they walked, to how they spoke, to what they called other people, even to how they ate, dressed, reacted to certain things, and spoke to him.

There was a big difference in the last one, though. Law was ruder and blunter with him than Captain Trafalgar was. That was a difference that they didn't quite share. He chalked it up to Law growing up the way he did. It put a lot of his personality into light. Not that he minded. It was just a thing he grew to enjoy from him.

His favourite thing to do was to watch him sleep. It may sound creepy, but he would watch Captain Trafalgar sleep when they would spend the night at each other's houses. That was the times he could study him without being considered weird or getting questions from the man.

That was something he didn't tell Law, either. He was uncomfortable to explain why he would do it every time he slept. It wasn't like he slept much, either. Doflamingo was a fucking ghost. They hardly slept if at all.

Turning back to the paper, he set it aside. Right now, he was wanting to focus on his love. They talked about his ancestry. When he talked about his parents, Doflamingo told him that it was the exact names of Captain Trafalgar's parents. To show him the truth, he held up the paper and pointed to his parents. That shocked both of them. More Law than Doflamingo.

After that, Law asked about his family. The guy knew he had a brother but wanted to know about him. Doflamingo, reluctantly, told him about his brother, his brother's wife, and their three children. He had no idea about what happened to them after he died. That was a good question.

Doflamingo decided to go check the study for something. He left the sleeping Law in his room for the time being. There was a specific thing he was going to get that Law had yet to figure out was in the safe.

Going to the wall, he opened it just like Law had. It had his whole family's wealth along with the past families that lived there. Only very few people had come to figure out that there was a safe in the room. Law was told about it but that was fine with him. It was probably better not to keep secrets from him.

He cringed at that thought. "I am keeping a secret from him, though," he said aloud to himself. That was bad enough. But he didn't want to outright tell him what he was up to. Law would probably freak out if he found out what Doflamingo was doing. That was just not something he wanted to tell him until he was done with it.

When the safe was open, he walked in and looked around. There was so much money all around the area. The safe was as big as the dining room and had piles and piles of cash and coins all around the room.

But there were some things that weren't that valuable. One happened to be a diary he had created as a child. He had it all the way up until he died. His brother had one as well, but it was missing. Doflamingo guessed it had been the book that Law took on the very first day he visited the house.

Picking up his diary, Doflamingo walked out of the safe and closed it back up. He wanted Law to read it. It would help him understand a bit more about him. But there was something he had to do first.

Opening the book up, Doflamingo started to rip out specific pages. They told about the room he had created, what he had been up to before his death, and what he was trying to complete. It wasn't time. He had a few more souls to collect. Then, he'll be able to tell Law about it.

When that was done, he went back to the room before placing the book on the nightstand next to Law. The man was still out like a light. Doflamingo guessed that it was because he made him run around the house earlier. Although it had been funny and interesting, he knew that Law was pissed off at the end of it.

Doflamingo had taken all of his shirts and pants and hid them in the attic. He didn't tell him where they were. When Law got out of the shower, he realized he didn't have anything to wear. His reaction had amused him as he ran around in boxers, checking all rooms to find his clothes.

It aroused him to watch him run from room to room. He had to hide in the walls to keep from attacking him. After a while, Law gave up and almost collapsed onto the floor of a bedroom he had searched. Doflamingo went to check on him and found him leaning, heavily, on the side of the bed. He glared right at him before staggering out of the room and back to his.

Doflamingo watched him crawl back in his bed without a word to him. And that was where he still was. He understood that he had upet him and did regret it. A little. He had been more preoccupied with trying not to jump him as he laid, almost completely naked, in bed. Now, he still was there.

Sighing, he took the papers he tore out to his secret room. They were going to stay there for the time being. No need for Law to accidentally find them. When they were put away, he left his room and started walking back to Law's room.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the front door. He looked back to where Law was. He didn't want to bother him. The guy would probably just yell and scream at him if he woke him up. Sighing, he was going to take the risk.

Going to the door, Doflamingo opened it. He was surprised to see such a small kid standing there. To be frank, he was a fairly tall man. Normal people just seemed small to him. Law wasn't any different.

"Oh. This is Torao's house, right?" the kid asked as he stood before him. He looked confused and surprised to see him.

"This is my house and Trafalgar Law does live here," Doflamingo answered. He didn't know anyone by the name he said.

"So, Torao does live here." Raising an eyebrow, he didn't have to ask anything because the kid seemed to understand his confusion. "Torao is Law. He's home, right? His car's here."

"He's sleeping right now. Who are you? Do you need something from him?" he questioned.

"That's alright. I'm Monkey D. Luffy. I just wanted to ask him if he's alright. I heard from our friend, Chopper, that he's been out for a few days now."

"He's fine. Just feeling a little under the weather." Doflamingo didn't want him to come inside. There was a possibility that he would figure out he was dead and a ghost. "Can I help you with anything else?"

"Yeah. Can you ask him if he wants to go out with us this weekend? Our friend, Nami, got a promotion and we're celebrating it." He grinned. "I promised the rest of us that I would invite him for her."

"I'll ask him. He'll let you know when he decides if he wants to or not." Luffy continued to smile at him. It was strange.

"Alright. Tell him that it's the same pub as the last one. Nami said he would remember it. I remember it, but not where it is. I'll pick him up if he says he'll go." Doflamingo rolled his eyes. This guy's stupid, isn't he?

"I understand. Have a good day." Luffy waved as he walked back to a motorcycle. It was shocking to know that such a guy rode one of those contraptions. Law had told him about how dangerous they were and that his car was a safer option.

After he closed the door, he went to the attic to retrieve Law's clothes. He didn't want him to remain angry with him for the rest of the day. That would just cause him problems. He wanted Law to forgive him. Not ignore him all fucking day.

When they were gathered up in his arms, he rushed back to Law's room and replaced them in the dresser before laying on the bed with him. He was still sleeping soundly. Doflamingo wondered if he was extremely tired. Getting under the covers, he pressed his body right up against Law's.

To his surprise, Law snuggled closer to his chest. It made a grin spread across his face. It made him feel proud that the younger man was getting closer to him. He was extremely protective and possessive of him because he loved him. No. Law wasn't a replacement for his old love for his ancestor. He came to love him for who he was and how he treated him. It was like a friend and sort of like a married couple. Nothing very new to him. That was, kind of, how his relationship was with Captain Trafalgar.
