A.N. This chapter is continuing right from where they last left off, so quick thank you to Katasana for beta-reading this.

Law's POV

I saw how suddenly the bright smile that was finally dedicated to me became fake, he was good at it, but I immediately saw the difference. "Luffy-ya, if you don't want to talk 'bout something, just tell me and I won't question anymore."

I watched as Luffy-ya's eyes widened and he quickly shook his head; if it's not my questions that made him uncomfortable, then what did? "No, no that's not it, it's something different…"

With those last words, Luffy-ya turned his eyes away from mine and I clearly understood that it had something to do with me; I felt my heart ache 'cause I made Luffy-ya feel uncomfortable. I turned my eyes away with guilt and stood up; there is no need for me to stay if I will have to see Luffy-ya feel uncomfortable 'cause of me. When I turned to walk away, I felt that something was holding my sweater, I looked down and saw Luffy-ya staring at me with confusion. "Where're you going Traffy?"

Traffy? He gave me a nick name? "I thought that I bothered you with my presence, so I decided to leave…"

Luffy shook his head and interrupted me. "No, that's not it at all! It's… It's something different."

I sat down in my previous place, maybe a little closer than before, and faced Luffy-ya with questioning eyes. "Will you please explain it to me then?"

The raven hair in front of me turned his eyes away and blushed; damn, he looks so kissable right now… "Well, I kind of know you from before." I started to go through my memory: had I met Luffy-ya previously and forgot? No, it's impossible, I would never forget an encounter like that… "Well every Thursday and Sunday you go to a convenience store and I kind of saw you there, a time, or two, or often."

The blush on his cheeks reddened and I kind of couldn't put the two together, is he blushing 'cause he's embarrassed that he knows on which days I go to the shop? Or that he noticed me? Or is there something more...? My heart fluttered at that though, but I quickly brushed it off; I don't need any false hope. "Oh, so we both met each other without knowing...? "

Luffy-ya's blush from his cheeks didn't disappear even though he didn't say anything that could get him embarrassed, so my mind filled with tons of reasons of why he could be blushing. Luffy-ya rubbed his arm and looked down. "Yea."

There is something he isn't saying to me… Finally my urge to touch him won and I lifted his chin, so that his eyes could meet mine, the blush reddened and I felt like melting into those brown orbs, but somehow I got myself together; I don't want Luffy-ya to think that I'm weird. "Luffy-ya, please tell me what's wrong, I can't fix my behavior if you don't tell me what I'm doing wrong."

Even though his cheeks were still red he frowned, and that sight made me want to brush my hand through those eyebrows and make the frown disappear – it didn't suit him. "There is nothing wrong with what Law did, it's not your fault, it's just me…"

I could hear a slight pain in his voice, that made me want to hug him and hold him close to my chest, in fact I did exactly that – wrapped my arms 'round him and drew him closer. Luffy-ya's breath hitched, but he didn't pull away from my chest, instead he wrapped his arms around my waist. "Traffy's heart beats really fast…" Luffy-ya announced after a minute or two of silence.

I sighed, all my plans to never get my heart ripped apart faded away and only the small body in my hands remained, I wanted to hold that body close to me forever, so I told the truth. "That's 'cause Luffy-ya is so close to me."

Luffy-ya again fell silent, but after a minute he raised his head and his eyes met mine. "Mine beats faster too."

I felt happiness flood my body, but I stopped myself; I'm still not sure if he's talking 'bout what I think he's talking about… Unintentionally I put my hand in Luffy-ya's hair and started ruffling 'em, I only understood that when a small purr came from the younger boy. I looked at his face, surprised, but when I saw satisfaction in his face, I quietly chuckled and kissed him.

No, I didn't kiss him on his cheek, my lips landed directly on his slightly parted ones. Well it was more like a quick peck, but for me it felt very long. I felt a slight blush creep up on my cheeks; what was I thinking? Shit, what if he'll hate me now? I looked at Luffy-ya's face and saw that his face now was as bright as tomato and as soon as he met my eyes he quickly burred his face in my chest. I felt relieved; at least it doesn't look like he hates me, or that he's disgusted. I felt an arm clench my sweater and a weak voice came out from Luffy-ya's throat. "Will Law do it again?"

I felt as my heart started pounding even faster than before. "It depends if you want me to do it again."

Luffy-ya nodded. "Yea, I want to."

NO POV

Bonney and Hawkins stared at the couple on the sofa, Luffy was sitting in Law's lap and was telling him something energetically. They canceled the party to make sure that no one disturbed those two, they looked very happy and both had slight blushes on their faces. Bonney silently giggled. "They look good together."

Hawkins smiled. "Yea, they do, it's good to see both of them so happy, especially after all that time when they looked so sorrowful."

Suddenly, Law brushed his hand across Luffy's cheek, leaned closer and kissed him, Luffy kissed back, but when Law pulled away, he blushed and nuzzled Law's chest. Trafalgar smiled and enfolded Luffy, both of them blissful.
