This story contains slight Ray x Nami. I just LOVE Nami (married her in AWL), so she will have a few stories about her. I wish I could marry her in MM as well. –pouts- Err… so… here it is.
Ray looked at the tomato given to him by Liz. He wasn't fond of tomatoes to be honest, it was just to pay him back for helping Nina in the fields that week. It was big, juicy, but he just didn't want it. If only he could find some way out of keeping it…
He sighed, walking with tomato in one hand, fishing rod in the other, to the Town Square. His blue eyes and attention stopped as he saw someone. She had red hair… he'd never seen her before.
"Excuse me!" he called out.
She glanced over at him, but said nothing. She simply nodded. Ray couldn't help it, he ran over to her, beaming like a child on Christmas morning.
"Excuse me," Ray repeated, but stopped. He had noticed she wasn't looking at him, but the big, juicy tomato. He smiled at her. "Do you like tomatoes?"
Hearts appeared in her eyes as she nodded. "Yes." She remained fixed on the tomato.
"Well, I'm Ray. I'm a traveling fisherman. Would you… would you like this tomato?" he asked, extending a hand out for the lady.
She took it. "Nami." She said simply, eyes finally meeting Ray's.
"That is a pretty name. Are you a traveler as well?"
She nodded. "Yes. I come here every summer. I like it here. Although… I am the weather lady on television."
Nami was opening up, she was fond of the fisherman after the tomato event. Ray beamed at her. "So I can see you every day then?"
She looked at him. "Would you want to see me every day?" she asked, quite perplexed at his statement.
Ray looked at the ground, avoiding Nami's gaze. "Yes. I would," he said quietly. He looked up. "Because I just met you, I can't say for sure, but… I might love you."
There you have it. I know, I messed up on Ray. I might go back through and edit this chapter if it bothers too many people… ya know how he is supposed to have problems and stuff when he talks to pretty girls? Well, I kinda missed that in this story, so let me know what you think, please.
