I do not own One Piece

A strange new feeling

Shattered feelings?


When they awoke, Nami was still laying on top of Luffy. She smiled and rolled off, heading to the bathroom. Luffy had sat up and watched her; he also smiled and laid back, waiting for her to finish up. About a half hour later, both Nami and Luffy were ready to head down to the lobby to meet the rest of the crew for breakfast.

When they arrived, everyone was already eating their meals. They took their seats and ordered, then they started talking to the crew.

"Does anyone want to do anything today?" asked Nami.

"Um…me, Chopper, and Franky were gonna go ice fishing today." Ussop explained, "You can come if you want."

Nami looked over at Luffy who had a wide grin, she could tell that he obviously wanted to go, "That sounds great…" she said.

"Okay, we'll meet you at this pond in a few hours then." Ussop said as he handed her a map to the pond.

"Sanji, can you come so you can cook the fish?" asked an excited Luffy. The whole crew looked at him in surprise, then turned their attention to Sanji.

"Um…yea, sure…" he said, surprised, he thought Luffy hated him for the way he acted for the past couple days. That's when Nami, and the rest of the crew realized that Sanji wasn't really a big jerk at all, he was just extremely jealous of Luffy. Nami was a very beautiful and smart girl after all. And apparently Luffy had forgiven him for his behavior.

Now that they thought about it, although Sanji did fondle over most of the girls they meet, he was actually a somewhat good guy. He was a great chef; he fought to protect his nakama, just like the rest of him. They all silently decided that he was okay, and they wouldn't get so upset at him any longer, unless he does his fondling thing, then they would get aggravated. Zoro still didn't like him however, but that's just Zoro for you.

Luffy had finished his meal and sat back in his chair and looked over at Nami who was looking at him, she smiled, "What do you want to do until then?" she asked him.

Luffy looked at the table in thought, then Sanji made a suggestion, "Why don't you go see a movie?"

They looked at him for a second, "What are you talking about, we didn't see any theaters." Nami asked.

"There's one in the hotel…" he explained as he pointed to a large doorway in the lobby. It read: Movie Theater. Nami and Luffy both simultaneously smacked their faces from their apparent lack of observation.

"How'd we miss that?" Luffy whined. Nami shook her head in embarrassment.

"Well…thank you Sanji." She said as she got up and pulled Luffy to the door.

Once in the theater, Nami sat down with Luffy in the seat next to her, more towards the back of the theater.

"Well….I guess there's more to him than we thought." Nami said with a smile.

"Yup…" is all Luffy had to say, he had always had faith in Sanji after all. Then he smiled and turned to her, she noticed I'm looking at her, and blushed.

"What?" she asked.

"What were you going to say last night?" he asked teasingly.

Nami's eyes widened and she felt her heart start to beat faster and faster. She looked away quickly to the movie that had just started playing. "Nothing." She mumbled.

Luffy only chuckled and turned to the movie also. A few minutes had passed and Nami leaned on Luffy's shoulder. Luffy wrapped an arm around Nami's shoulders and gently placed his head onto hers. Nami tilted her face up a bit so she could see him; Luffy felt her movement and took his head off of hers. They looked at each other for a few seconds before he slowly descended to her lips, both closing their eyes. They kissed for almost the entire length of the movie, and now, it was about time for lunch.

They left the theatre and headed to the table that the rest of the crew was waiting at for lunch. As they walked up to it, they looked at each other, then looked back at the scene that was unfolding.

"Robin-chwan, you are as beautiful as a midsummer's day." exclaimed Sanji is he was twirling around behind her. Robin was just looking down at her plate with an almost expressionless face.

Nami sat down and Luffy took a seat right next to her and turned to Ussop. "What's going on?"

"Well….I guess since he can't have Nami, he turned his attention to Robin…" Ussop explained.

Nami looked at Luffy and smiled, Luffy smiled also before turning to Robin with an apologetic expression. Nami was glad that Sanji wouldn't be interfering with her and Luffy anymore, but she did feel sorry for Robin gaining all of Sanji's attention.

The rest of the day went buy relatively smoothly, for Sanji hadn't yelled at Luffy once, and Nami never had to lecture him about how she and Luffy were together. So it seemed that for the most part, he was back to himself, except for now showing most of his affection to Robin. Luffy had taken Nami out to eat for dinner, and they were on their way to their room, walking down the hall.

Holding hands, Nami looked over to Luffy who had a smile on his face. "What?" she asked, getting curious.

Luffy had looked to her, smile only getting larger, "Nothing…."

Nami pursed her lips and turned, looking down the hall again, then Luffy began to talk again, "I was just thinking about that dream."

Nami immediately looked at him, remembering how he never told her about it, "And?" she questioned teasingly. By now, Luffy had opened the door and the two were walking into the room. Once she entered, he quickly closed the door and looked at her. She felt her heart start to pound faster.

"I'll show you…" he said, smiling and gently pushing her up against the door. She had brought her arms up to her chest in slight nervousness, but relaxed when he slowly placed his lips to hers. She let her palms rest on his chest and allowed him to enter her mouth. They wrestled tongues for a few minutes, then, she pushed him back and twirled him around, so that now he was up against the wall. She kissed him again, he started to suck on her tongue and rub his hand slowly up and down her back. She let out a few moans before slowly pulling away. She smiled, and walked into the bathroom. Luffy grinned, still up against the wall, and walked to the bed, jumping into it. He took his shirt off, and got under the covers.

A few minutes later, Nami walked out, but to Luffy's surprise, she wasn't wearing any pants, or shirt. He blushed as she got under the covers and laid herself slightly ontop of him. The feeling of their warm torsos causing her to giggle. Luffy smiled and brought an arm around, placing his hand over her bare stomach. She grabbed his hand with hers and closed her eyes.

"Good night Luffy."

"Night…Nami."

Luffy woke up and Nami was still laying on him, he gently pushed her off and headed to the bathroom. Nami had woken up when Luffy closed the door, she smiled and sat up. She felt warm thinking about him.

Luffy walked out and over to his side of the bed to get some clothes, he realized that he had no clean clothes left. He sighed, "Nami, can you go clean my clothes?"

Nami only furrowed her brows at him and replied, "Why cant you??"

"Because..." Luffy whined.

"Well I'm taking a shower, so you can do it...and take my dirty clothes too..." she commanded.

"Nami..."

"Just do it." she commanded again, Luffy pouted and gathered up all of his and Nami's dirty clothes, he then started making his way to the door.

"Wait." She said quickly.

"Hmmm?" he asked as he slowly turned to her, he felt like he was on fire from the intensity of his blush as he saw Nami taking her shirt off. Nami looked at him and giggled, then she began to take off her bra, by now, Luffy had turned away. Nami took off all of her cloths and added them to the pile Luffy had in his arms. Luffy hadn't seen anything, but he was still blushing just from the thought.

"Well, I guess I'll be back in a bit." He said nervously as he headed out the door.

"Okay, see you then." She said as she smiled and walked into the bathroom. She got the bottle of pills she had bought last night and took one out, she looked at it for a few minutes. Then she smiled and took it with a glass of water. She took a shower and got dressed with the bra and underwear that she still hadn't used from the ones Luffy had gotten for her.

About an hour later, she heard a knock on the door and walked over to open it, but then realized that she was only wearing undergarments. She grabbed a robe from the bathroom and opened the door.

She smiled and stepped out of the way, she watched him walk over to the bed and plop all of the folded clothes down, not neatly folded, but folded none the less. She walked over to the bed, Luffy had grabbed a set of clean clothes and was about to head to the bathroom to get dressed, for he was still only wearing a towel. When he turned he bumped into Nami who was standing right next to him.

"Oh…gomen Na…." he started, but then couldn't finish when he saw her drop her robe and pick a shirt out of the pile to put on. Luffy was blushing again, he decided to hurry himself into the bathroom. He closed the door and leaned against it, catching his breath, as he realized that he was holding it. Nami had smiled to his reaction. She put her clothes in the suitcase, and gently placed Luffy's on the ground at his side of the bed.

Luffy walked out of the bathroom and looked at Nami just sitting on the bed, kicking her feet around.

"Bored?" he asked her.

"Un….there's not really anything to do…" she said lazily.

"We could always….ugh…maybe…no…" Luffy sighed, "yea…I can't think of anything…anyways, let's go have breakfast."

"Un…but we need to find something to do." She said, then she gasped, Luffy had picked her up and she blushed, but looked right into his eyes. He walked down to the lobby and set her down, taking her hand. The crew wasn't there because they were both very late considering Luffy had to wash the cloths, which he detested. They sat down at a table and ordered the food.

Once they finished eating they got up and headed for the lobby, both taking a seat on one of the couches.

"Luffy….what are we gonna do all day…we've already done almost ev…." She stopped her sentence and turned around. They had heard a loud crushing noise coming from outside. They both ran over to the door to see what was going on. There was a very heavy man who was breaking everything with what looked like, the movement of his hands.

"SUGE!!" exclaimed Luffy as he started walking to the man.

Nami panicked, "Wait Luffy…what are you…"

"Im gonna stop him, he's ruining the town." He said with a big grin. 'Well, at least today won't be without excitement.' She thought to herself.

"OI!" yelled Luffy. The man turned to him with a angry smirk.

"What do you want kid?" he asked as he started slowly walking over to him.

"Stop destroying the town." He commanded calmly.

The man burst out laughing, "Why would I do that, I rule over this island, and seven others around here, what makes you think that for a second I would stop, these peasants haven't paid the taxes they owe and now there town…and lives will be gone." He said as he started to laugh again. Nami couldn't help but remember Arlong, and how he did basically the same to her village, if they couldn't pay, it was all over. She looked over at Luffy who had his fists clenched tightly, and she could tell that he was trembling with anger.

"Luffy…" she whispered.

"Well I can't just stand around and let you do that." He replied.

"Ha…..and what do you think you're gonna do about it."

He leaned over to her ear and whispered, "Don't worry; I won't let him ruin these people's lives like Arlong did to you and your village, not anymore." Luffy said sternly as he turned to walk back to the man. Nami was just looking at him remembering that time he had fought Arlong, her eyes began to tear and she fell to her knees.

"Navigator-san….is everything alright?" asked Robin with a concerned smile, she had came over with Chopper; they had both heard the commotion and came to check It out. Then all the other crew members came over also from different areas. She explained to them what the guy was doing, and that Luffy was going to stop him.

At that time, Luffy had gotten pretty close to the guy and noticed that he seemed to have a hard time breathing, most likely because of his extreme weight. The guy then lifted his arm and pointed his palm at Luffy. Then all of a sudden, Luffy slid on the ground about ten feet from where he was, still standing up, after a few seconds fell to the ground with his hands tightly grasping his head.

The whole crew gasped in shock, "What the hell was that?" questioned Zoro.

"Ah…that was the power of my devils fruit, I am able to control sound, what just happened to your friend here was that I used my ability to send an extremely high frequency directly at his head….you can't hear it, but it will cause a pain that is almost unimaginable to your ear drums, however…it doesn't only affect the ears, it affects all of the body, any normal person would be dead, and…well, I bet you couldnt even take another hit like that." He said as he chuckled.

"Luffy…" Nami whispered again, as tears once again formed and rolled down her face.

The whole crew was glaring at the fat guy, Zoro drew a sword and was about to unsheath a second when he heard Luffy. "Zoro….don't worry about it." He said as he stood up, coughing up blood, but he had a wide grin on his face.

"But Luffy….." Zoro started.

"No….I'll be fine." He said as he stood in a fighting stance, ready to attack.

"No Luffy…." Nami said quietly.

"I'm sure captain-kun will be fine." reassured Robin calmly.

"What the hell is that big grin for kid?" chuckled the guy.

"Nothing really." Said Luffy as his grin grew bigger.

The guy raised his hand again, but couldn't keep up with Luffy's movements, because of his weight. Luffy got close enough and sent a fist right into the guys face, landing him a good twenty feet away. The guy got up and started furiously sending his sound waves at Luffy, trying to hit him as best he could. He missed every time and was sent into a wall by another one of Luffy's punches. This went on for a few more minutes until the guy didn't get up. Luffy just stood there, waiting.

The guy then sat up with a sly grin on his face, "Well, maybe I can't hit you, but I sure as hell can hit that little girl over there." He yelled as he aimed his palm for Nami. Unfortunately, Luffy was too late to stop him, and the crew had walked a little closer during the fight, leaving Nami a good fifteen feet behind them, so they were too far away from Nami to pull her to safety, she was still kneeling on the ground, now she had a look of terror on her face. 'Oh no….this can't be happening….' She thought as she closed her eyes tightly and clenched her fists.

Luffy was panicking as he was just standing there, thinking of anything and everything to do. Then he thought of something that he hadn't tried yet. He pumped his legs and yelled out, "DOUBLE GEAR SECOND!!" . Nami had opened her eyes to look at Luffy after he had yelled. The whole crew and the guy had looked over to where Luffy was and just looked at him confused.

"Double?" questioned Ussop.

"No Luffy…that much strain on your body could kill you at any time." Yelled a frantic Chopper who had noticed how hard Luffy was breathing and how his body looked.

"What!" yelled Ussop.

"He's putting to much strain on his entire body, it can't stand that…he could die at any moment." Explained Chopper.

"Luffy…" Nami whispered again as she looked at him, she started to cry now. "No Luffy…don't do it." She yelled out. Just then the guy looked back at her.

"Oh yeah….forgot about you." He sent the sound wave at her and started chuckling manically.

"LU…..FFYYYYYYYY!!" Nami screamed at the top of her lungs. Everyone looked through the smoke confused, then they turned to where Luffy was, but he was gone. The smoke started to clear and they could faintly see someone standing in front of Nami, facing the guy.

"No…." whispered Ussop.

"Luffy…." Said Chopper quietly.

"Luffy….what the hell are you thinking!!" yelled Zoro.

"Luffy no…." cried Nami as she watched him fall to his knees. She let her head fall to her knees with her hands covering her face as she began to sob loudly. Everyone heard the guy start to laugh and they all turned to him…they were pissed, Zoro had unsheathed all of his swords and was about to attack. When he saw something out of the corner of his eyes.

Luffy had turned around to look at Nami, he lifted his hat off his head and gently placed it on hers, she quickly looked up with tear-filled eyes at him.

"Luffy…" she said, almost as if she saw a ghost.

Luffy smiled and wiped the tears away from her face. "Why are you crying." He asked teasingly.

"Shut up…I thought…." She said as she lowered her head.

"Have some more faith Nami…." he gently said as he got up and turned his head to the guy without turning his body. Nami had looked up at him wide eyed.

"No…Luffy don't!" she cried out. Then he just disappeared and they all heard a loud crash. They turned and saw that Luffy was standing where the fat guy was, but didn't see a fat guy. They looked over at a large tree that was now smashed in half and saw the guy lying on his back, completely unconscious with blood coming from his mouth. Then they heard something else.

"Luffy…" yelled chopper as he rushed over to him. Luffy had fallen to his knees again, no longer in double gear second. Then he fell face first into the snowy ground.

"Luffy…" cried out Nami as she stumbled over to him.

Luffy slowly opened his eyes and looked around, he was in his room.

"Luffy…" Nami said loudly in a joyous tone as she threw herself onto him and wrapped her arms around his body.

"Nami….I can't breath." He mumbled out.

She smiled as tears began to form in her eyes, "Gomen, I'm just so happy that you're alright."

Luffy smiled also, "Well of course I'm alright."

"Idiot…why did you do that?" she asked as she rubbed away the tears.

"Do what?"

"Get in front of me."

"Well…how could I just let you get hit by that?" he asked seriously.

"You could have died." She yelled as she started to cry again.

"I could have…." He whispered as he hugged her. "But I didn't…and you're not hurt, so I don't see what the big deal is." He said as he pulled away and smiled.

She huffed, "Well….arigato…just never do that again…I don't want you to die."

There was a minute of silence, then Nami sighed as she stood up. "Now come on, we need to head to the dining room for dinner, the restaurants are both closed from the damage that guy caused." She said as she grabbed his hand and started for the door, he smiled and followed her.

They got to the dining room, everyone was there waiting for dinner.

"Good to see you up Luffy, Dinner won't be ready for fifteen minutes." said Sanji with a small, but genuine smile.

"Okay, thanks Sanji." replied Luffy with a smile.

"Oh…Luffy are you feeling okay?" asked chopper.

"Aa…arigato." He said with a smile.

"That's good…I thought you died." stated Ussop.

"Aa…don't do that anymore, you looked like hell." Added in Zoro.

"Un…you had us all worried captain-kun." Stated Robin as she smiled up at him.

"Gomen…." He pouted. "I'll be on deck until dinners ready then." He said as he walked out the door.

Everyone looked at each other in concern, but didn't want to bother him yet, except for Nami, who then exited the room also. She walked over to the railing that Luffy was leaning on.

"Luffy…what's wrong?"

"Nothing, I just…." He stopped.

"Luffy, you can tell me."

"No…I don't think I can." He said as he sighed.

"Come on…."

He smiled at her, "Don't worry about it."

She pouted and they stood in silence for around five minutes. "Luffy…I wanted to say this last night, but I couldn't…"

"What?" he asked curiously.

"Luffy…I…well you see….I…"

"Nami what is it?" he asked, getting worried.

"Luffy….I love you." She whispered, then she looked down at the deck, noticing his expression. His eyes widened, and his lips parted.

"Nami…." he took a deep breath.

With that, Nami felt herself fall apart. she felt as if she had just jumped off a bridge, but never hit bottom. her heart felt like it was going to crumble, and she wanted to cry, just cry away her feelings.

"Nami...these past weeks have been fun, actually, probably some of the most fun ive ever had...and i just want to say..." Luffy paused there before continuing, but noticed that Nami had run off to the dining room. He could see the tears glistening, while streaming down her face.

When she entered the dining room she quickly took her seat. She was sobbing, her head in her arms face down on the table.

"Navigator-san?" questioned a worried Robin.

"Nami-san...whats wrong?" asked Sanji, also very much worried. Just then, Luffy walked in, everyone turned their gaze to him. They were all confused as to why Nami was crying, and suspected it was Luffy's doing.

"Luffy...what the hell did you do to Nami-san?" questioned a now angry Sanji. However, Luffy just ignored him and walked right up to Nami. She was still sobbing away, not looking up to see him. Luffy squated down and leaned in close to her ear.

He whispered, "Nami...you didnt let me finish."

Nami had looked up, not crying anymore, but still tearing. Then she opened her eyes wider when he placed his lips gently onto hers, kissing her for a few seconds.

He pulled away and leaned close to her ear again, "I love you too." he whispered, smile on his face as he stood up and walked out of the room. Nami's face was that of shock.

"What did he say?" asked Ussop.

Nami didn't respond, but slowly started to smile and turned back to the table. She was tearing again, now, just because Luffy said that, she felt like she was pulled back onto that bridge, and he would never let her fall again.


Reviews are appreciated...good or bad.

Okay, this is the last chapter, however, I would like to know if you think I should make a sequel, or a few sequel chapters added onto the end of the story. I personally don't know what I would write if I added more, but if you feel I should, I would gladly do some brainstorming.
