Sorry for the late update again ;A; I started early with writing but then Easter, King's day and an animeconvention happened so I couldn't write the last part of the chapter "OTL Also I've figured out the reviews function I think 8'D?
I want to thank everyone who has reviewed, favorite and/or followed this story :3
Outside was dark and cold. People had already finished their dinner two hours ago, so most of them were just settled on their sofa, watching the television. It was different for the two raven-haired.
Last lesson Law had suggested that they should try driving in the dark once, because practicing in the dark evening was important as well.
In reality, Law had other reasons. Spending the evening with only two of them sounded more intimidating after all.
You could say that Trafalgar Law was getting more desperate.
During the previous lessons, Law had tried all his ways of flirting on the boy, but Luffy never received the message.
Every time the teen succeeded something in driving, the older male complimented him in a way:
Whenever Luffy stopped right before the red light, Law calmly kneaded his shoulders.
Whenever Luffy let a passenger pass on the crossing, Law gently caressed his cheek.
Whenever Luffy checked his mirrors, Law playfully poked in his waist.
He had tried three different ways to approach him, but all failed. It wasn't like Law was an expert in flirting, but this was ridiculous...
Luffy had not discovered the meaning behind Law's actions, as he was probably the most oblivious person on Earth. Law did receive some nice reactions out of him, but he was ninety-nine percent sure that the teen didn't understand himself why he was sensitive at some places on his body.
And it was funny really.
The way how the boy kept on complaining made it look like he was the one who needed the other his attention, while it was actually Law who needed his attention. How their roles have switched...
But Luffy's ignorance did nothing to make Law back off. Instead, he was encouraged to try harder.
The boy jumped again from the sudden touch and softly groaned in respond.
"Traffy... I can't drive if you keep doing that!" he shouted whining. His face wasn't red from the anger however (or so Law liked to imagine).
The man chuckled softly. "I think it makes you drive better," he argued teasingly.
The nineteen-year-old was silent for a moment, probably trying to come up with an argument, but still returned nothing except another groan.
"I suppose Traffy's right," the student admitted just like that. Luffy was too trusting and it was hard for the taller raven-haired to not make use of it.
"Of course I am," the man replied credibly.
But yes... This wasn't going to work forever. He needed to be more direct than this if he wants Luffy to get the clue.
"Let's practice a manoeuvre for now," Law ordered. "If you go left by the next turn, you'll meet a parking lot. I want you to park the car there."
Luffy listened and slowly made his way to the pointed place. It was a large field, filled with empty spots that were specially made for vehicles. Not many people or cars were currently here because of the late hour, which made it perfect for the student to practice.
"It doesn't matter where you park the car, as long as you check your surroundings. Do you already have a spot in mind?"
The teen nodded. "Yeah, that one," he answered and pointed towards one of the most difficult spots to pick from.
Of course Luffy chose that one. Law shouldn't have been that surprised.
The man sighed as he was feeling defeated by the boy's thinking. "Why that one?"
"It looks hard! I think," he reasoned.
"You thought right, but the examinees don't really care which one you pick. If you still want to go for this one however, I won't stop you."
The teen laughed and headed for the chosen empty spot that was surrounded by two big cars. Because of its size, it was difficult to check around you and what made it even more harder was the amount of space left between the two large vehicles.
"I won't lose to something like this!," Luffy shouted enthusiastically, but quickly turned quiet. All his focus was concentrated on turning the wheel as he carefully operated the clutch. He kept switching the gears to turn back when the car didn't fit and tried again. After trying several times, he finally managed to get the car parked. It wasn't exactly parked straight and there was still no way of getting out of the since there wasn't that much space besides them, but he still did it nonetheless.
And that made Luffy's driver instructor Trafalgar Law proud.
Luffy grinned, beaming with pride and even more confidence because he had just won a challenge. "I told you right?"
"You still forgot to check around you," Law countered despite feeling pleased. "But you did well Luffy-ya," he complimented which was followed by a half-smile.
"Amazing right? Right?" he pressed to gain more compliments.
Direct.
Law had to be more direct to Luffy he reminded himself again.
"Turn off the car to finish your assignment," he ordered as he unbuckled his own safety-belts.
Luffy lifted up an eyebrow out of confusion but still obeyed. He set the gear on a neutral position, used the handbrake to keep the car in place and turned around the keys, just like he learned. When he looked up again and opened his mouth to ask Law for the next instructions, Law was already close to his face.
"Traffy?" he called but got no respond. Instead, the man leaned in with closed eyes until their lips lightly touched. Luffy's eyes widened in bewilderment, but made no movements to push the other raven-haired back.
Law noticed and took advantage of that. He bended more forward the deepen the kiss further and realized how small Luffy's mouth was despite his big personality. Even so, he could still feel the softness of it, especially when the smaller male started to kiss back.
It was still pitch-dark outside and the two big-sized cars made it difficult for passers-by to catch the couple. It felt like the Earth only belonged to the two of them.
Only seconds passed after that. Their first kiss was short and light, but enough to fasten Law's heartbeat. He opened his eyes and slowly pulled back just before he sat straight up again.
And then it hit him.
He had just kissed his student.
What if the kiss turned out bad? What if he had scared the boy? What if Luffy decided to stop his courses?
Trafalgar was a smart man and always calculated possible outcomes for every action he made.
Was Luffy's impulsiveness rubbed off on him?
The tutor immediately turned sideways to study Luffy's face, ready to face the horror and drama but...
Luffy was laughing instead.
"Stop laughing!" Law demanded frustrated while his panicking face switch to an embarrassing one.
The boy cracked up while holding his hands on his stomach as he wildly moved his legs. "B-But t-Traffy's face!" he answered laughing. "You were panicking and- o-ouch my stomach hurts..."
"I'm serious!" Law said but had no other option to wait for Luffy until he was calmed down before he could continue talking.
When the smaller male finally controlled himself, he initiated their conversation again. "Why were you panicking though?"
"I kissed you! Don't you feel frightened or disgusted?!" the man argued.
"But you like me right?" the boy stated as if it was something ordinary.
Law would have been fallen from his chair if his seat wasn't fixed to the car. "Don't you have any objections?!"
"None!" Luffy answered with a huge smile.
The man's rage and frustrations lessened and let out a deep sigh of defeat.
After all these lessons, he still can't understand Luffy. "You're a strange guy."
"You think?" the boy beamed once again.
Either Luffy wasn't completely innocent as Trafalgar Law thought he was or he was just super oblivious.
But how does one find out for sure?
To answer xxXxx's question, I think this fic will become M-rated in the future buthonestly I've never published anything with that rating before bwahaha.
Ok.
