"You ever thought what would happen have we never met ?" Luffy open one of his eyes to look down at his Navigator/Girlfriend upon the said question. It seemed whenever they just had sex there was these small bed talks they have. Luffy never mind them but he could get often thrown off by some questions Nami would ask him.
"No, not really" It was the honest truth. Hell, he never thought that bout any of his fellow crew mates and he was thankful he met them at all. Nami sighed as she sat up some and laid her back against the headboard, knees to her chest and her chin laying on her head. She was currently naked under the sheets but didn't care much, the dummy next to her had seen more of her then any other guy ever. So there was no need to adjust herself to cover up.
"I just often look back and just found it strange really."
"What do you mean strange ?" he asked placing his hands behind his head and looking up at the ceiling.
"Before we met me as well as my entire village was ruled by a really bad pirate and he took someone dear from me, for so long i hated him and yet i was working under him so that i could earn enough money to buy back their our freedom. 10 years, 10 long years i worked under that bastard, with his mark on my arm and at the time having the village hating me..well at least i thought at the time they were." She narrowed her eyes as she went on " I stole from pirates mostly, at that time i hated all pirates, i assume someone like Arlong was all over the world, that pirates was scum of the sea. And then i met you. Some strawhat wearing boy who declared he was gonna be the Pirate King." She smiled a little at the memory. " At the time i just thought you was no different then other pirates, till i saw that you had compassion, you was loyal to your fellow crewmates and that you would put yourself at risk for others. And yet despite that, i still couldn't really trust you and with my own problems to deal with i just couldn't bring myself to rely on you at that time. So i stole your ship and headed for home."
Luffy just sat and listen as he recall most of those events so spoke of, hard to believe it was just two years ago since that time, for him it felt shorter.
"When i got back home i felt regret, mainly cause i viewed you guys as my friends, i even thought at the time if we met again that maybe you would forgive me and even have me join you guys again. It was the first time in ten years that i ever truly cared for pirates. At least the crew of pirates i was in." Nami sighed as she closed her eyes and shook her head. "Honestly the more i look back on it, the more i felt i really saw how the world was. Not even the marines are pure. Some would do whatever it take to keep themselves face to the public, even wipe out an entire village just so that can be so. The very people who i thought was gonna be reliable, like how my mom was...they too betrayed lied to us..much like how Arlong lied to me bout giving our freedom back. "She open her eyes looking angerly against the wooden walls as she recall the betrayal, it was enough to make her go mad. "When the village went to fight Arlong's crew, everything rushed into my head at once. The 10 years i spent stealing, the close calls i had growing up almost getting killed, the times i felt so alone trapped in that damn room drawing those maps, the village who kept quiet and only thought of me instead of themselves..and most of all..i thought about you Luffy." Her eyes were shadowed by her hair as she gripped her arms tightly.
By This time Luffy look over at Nami, she was pouring her heart out and all he could really do is listen. Really this was the first time he really knew the depth of what was going on with Nami at that time.
"The time i spent with you and the others..the times when we all had fun..the times you saved me..looked out for me..cared enough for me to still trust in me over someone telling you i had killed a crewmate of yours..you still held me so high in trust and Oda knows i didn't deserved it..." A small smile tugged her lips and she shook her head slowly. "But no..even when i was feeling sorry for myself..you came to me..came to my aid..heard my plea and gave me something you treasured more then anything..to the one person who should had been the last person you should had ever trusted at all." She looked over at Luffy lovingly, keeping the smile on her face. "I guess thats when i started looking at you as less of a boy i wanted to use..and more of a man i wanted to follow towards the ends of the earth..and someone i would later fall in love with." She whispered the last part softly but she knew Luffy heard her. She look back ahead and relaxed after getting all of that off her chest. "So. That being said, i just thought what would had happen have i never met you, it was odd to me how someone so normal looking to me at the time completely changed my world in such a short time. "
Luffy had a better understanding to her question however it was rather simple for him to answer. "The world is pretty big, i was bound to find you sooner or later, just so happen i found you sooner then later thats all." Luffy never reflected much of his life till now, sure he look back at the times he had with his crew and with his brothers along with Shanks and his crew but as far as thinking bout his crew and their past, he never kept them in his mind. To him the past was the past and him meeting someone and or asking to friend them or join his crew doesn't normally reflect on that. He was friends with alot of people but their titles and or their status to the world never concern him and it was no different with his crew. It wasn't Nami's past that made him fight and it sure wasn't what happen while he was in the village that caused her the distress that did it ether. It was her tears, her tears what was did it and no body was ever gonna get away with making any of his friends cry. Arlong learn that the hard way. "If i didn't met you, i don't think i would had gotten this far, honestly i don't think i could had been involve with any other woman other then you really."
To any other woman they would call him a liar or saying that just to flatter but Nami knew that this was in a sense rather true. Aside from her there was women in Luffy life that more then likely would had made a move on him, few are his friends and one was an enemy working for that Big nose clown. Yet oddly Luffy never really saw them as anything other then normal women. Luffy wasn't like Sanji where he would see any attractive woman appeling. She remember him telling the crew how him and Boa met and how he had say her naked twice before. Nami and Luffy didn't really started being a thing till after fishmen island and even before then Nami didn't really get bothered by what he said, mainly cause of his normalness to it. Had it been Sanji who told that story, needless to say he would need a blood transfusion with the river he would had made. Luffy on the other had, spoke about it as if he was the most normal thing in the world. Yet when he sees Nami's body he acts like a kid at a toy store, always touching and poking and believe her he does alot of poking with various things.
Nami lean over Luffy and grabbed his strawhat and twirl it around her finger. "To think, this here is what kinda draw us together in a way. It was this very hat and its owner that saved me from despair." She smiled before kissing the rim of the hat and placed it on her head before looking down at a grinning Luffy. "It does look good on you thou Shishishi" Nami gave a lopsided grin before rolling herself on top of him, pressing her breasts against his chest and stared down at him. "Really..so does that mean i'm also sexy with it on ? " Luffy eyes widen as he let out a surprised gasp as he felt her move slowly against him.
"M..Maybe, i don't know" Luffy looked to the said avoiding her eyes. Truth be told ever since they been dating, anytime she wore his hat he would have an urge to kiss her senseless. Of course he never voiced out that he would like to do it with her wearing his hat thou. As if reading his mind Nami sat up some and placed her hand on his hat in a similar way Luffy does fulling exposing the front of her body to her captain. "Premission to wear your hat..as i pleasure you captain ?" She said in a seductive way.
Oh yeah, he wasn't getting any sleep tonight it seems and he was very thankful for that.
