Enjoy

He should have known that the little dance wouldn't pass unnoticed. The night right after had been ok and Law was pretty sure it was because he had still been drunk. The dark haired male had considered going out again on Saturday night, but decided against it. He had to work the following morning and additionally he was not sure if he was ready to stumble over Kid again.

Now he stood behind the counter in Starbucks, only a few meters away from Eustass' apartment and should have been working. Luckily enough there were no customers so far and the young man could enjoy his daydream.

Law was pretty sure that Kid couldn't remember as much from the evening as he did. He couldn't be sure how much he remembered of the dance though. The dark haired male felt a blush creep up his cheeks. He couldn't really say why he had been dancing that close to Kid…

To tell the truth he wasn't even sure if he wanted to know. He had never had that kind of interest in men but he knew well enough that Kid was smoking hot. The memory of the night's dream flashed up in his mind and the blush deepened. This time they hadn't stopped at kissing.

The dark haired man remembered how dream Kid had moved his long fingers under the yellow hoodie, stroking along Law's sides softly. He had pressed closer to Kid, feeling the other man's body hot against his. Their kiss deepened… And the door bell rang and kicked Law back to reality. A fake smile plastered on his face he greeted the customer, only seconds later realizing who was standing in the coffee shop. "Oh… Hi Vivi."

The blue haired woman strolled over to him, smiling sweetly. Law desperately wished Kid would be there to save him once more. But he didn't have his number, so he couldn't call him. Not that he would, of course. He was old enough to handle a single woman by himself, right?

"Trafalgar Law." Her voice was icy. O-Oh. That sounded bad. "What's going on with you?" He raised an eyebrow. "Fist you kiss me and then you're all over that prick!" Rolling his eyes he picked up a cup and filled it with coffee. "Latte I guess, right Miss Nefeltari?"

"I'm not here to drink coffee!" Vivi was screaming by now. Law sighed. He had hoped that his little dance with Kid had sorted the issue with the blue haired woman. Bad luck he guessed. Taking a first sip of the coffee he had made for her, he looked at the woman. "Vivi, what do you want? If you expect me to go out with you – forget it."

For a moment the blue haired woman was at a loss of words. Sad enough the moment didn't last long. "Are you.. gay?" The question hit Law with a surprising force. "Of course not…" She just laughed. "I've never seen any straight man dance like this with another guy!" Law flinched inwardly. Maybe she was right; maybe not. One thing was for sure: He would never admit it to a gossip girl like Vivi!

"Welcome in my world, lovely." With a smile he switched to sellers mode and asked: "Would you like a coffee now?" She gaped at him, then turned on her heel and fled. The blue haired women nearly collided with the second guest of the day. Eustass Kid. Fortuna hated him, really!

"Seems like our little stunt didn't work, huh?" Law smirked. Letting his gaze wander over the redhead he noticed that the other looked rather pale, even for his standards. "Looks like you have the next hangover. Coffee?" Kid just nodded.

Watching the redhead putting his coat down on one of the chairs Law didn't pay too much attention to the coffee making. He was working for Starbucks since almost a year and he knew the steps. But apparently he was still unable to do it blind (or while using eighty percent of his concentration for staring). "Oh, damn!"

Kid looked up. Law had managed to spill the boiling hot coffee all over his fingers. Cursing the dark haired dropped the cup and hurried over to the sink. Letting cold water run over his burnt fingers he felt another blush creep up his cheeks. He really didn't want to make a complete fool of himself in front of Kid, but apparently he just did.

The redhead had walked around the counter and started collecting the shards of the cup Law had dropped. Looking over to Kid, Law said with a small smile: "Don't. I'll get it done in a minute. Same goes for your coffee." Shaking his head Kid dropped the shards in a bin and stepped over to the dark haired male.

"Show me…" Too surprised to do something about it, Law let the other grab his wrist and examine the reddened skin. "This looks badly. You should get a cool pack for it. Sit down." The coffee shop was empty still and so Law allowed himself to take the advice and sat down. Sitting down beside Kid's coat he smiled at the other male.

"Guess I really need a bodyguard these days." The redhead smirked. „Against women or against stupid accidents in your job?" Law laughed and hid his face in his healthy hand. "Both, I guess." Though he knew that he probably needed protection from Kid to be able to work properly again…

Half an hour passed and the redhead was ready to leave again. "Thanks for the coffee. See you tomorrow, Law." The dark haired nodded and collected the empty cup Kid had left behind.

And another boring week awaits the two...
