Enjoy!

It has been four days and luckily for Sabo his chicken pox had cleared up.

For the past ten days he his body has been irritating him. He could barely move as fast as he could and he would always stop to just scratch, but it did make things work.

Sabo hadn't seen Luffy for at least a week. Well, that was because he didn't want Luffy to get the chicken pox as well. There were times when Luffy would want to come over and help him in any sort of way, but Sabo would have to lie to talk him out of it. He did feel kind of bad about it though.

Now that his chicken pox was cleared up, he had asked Luffy to meet him at the cafe shop.

What Sabo didn't know was that Luffy was already in the cafe shop.

Sabo put on his jacket and grabbed his blind stick and headed for the door.

~.~

Luffy stood behind the counter at the cafe shop. He wore a white buttoned downed shirt with black dress pants and black vest. There was also a name tag pinned on his shirt.

He was reading one of Sabo's novels, until a costumer came up to him.

When he saw Sabo walked into the store, he yelled out his name.

Sabo was surprised to see Luffy behind the counter. He didn't know that Luffy worked here.

As Sabo walked up to talk to him, he was shocked to see that Luffy had a black eye.

"Oh this, don't worry about it," Luffy said chuckling.

Sabo looked at him with concern, "How did you even get that?"

"Oh some guy with red hair was bothering me," Luffy says giving Sabo a half smile. "Really, it's okay."

Sabo was about to say something, but a man with red hair had interrupted their conversation. It was the same man that gave Luffy his black eye ten days ago.

Luffy shivered as soon as he walked in. There was just bad news coming all over the guy.

"Hey it's the brat. Is that brother of yours here," The man walked up to Luffy with a threatening look.

"Kid, Is that you?" Sabo asked getting a closer look at him.

Kid turned around with a smile on his face, "Oh, it's my high school pal, Sabo!" He takes his hand and ruffles his hair.

Sabo smacked Kid's hand and gave him an angry expression, "I was never your pal."

Luffy looked at Sabo confused, "You know this guy?"

Sabo scoffed, "I'm going to pretend I don't."

Kid rolled his eyes, "Whatever I just wanted a drink."

Luffy hesitantly takes Kid's money. He watches him make the cafe and heads out. He lets out a heavy sigh when Kid is out of sight.

"What's the matter?" Sabo asked giving him a strange look.

"Oh that's just the guy who gave me this black eye."

Sabo widened his eyes in shock. Luffy did say that he got it from a guy with Red hair. He wondered why he didn't think of Kid as the suspect.

"So why did you want to meet at the cafe?" Luffy asked.

Sabo blushed, "I just wanted to ask if you'd like to go on a date with me."

Luffy had to pinch himself three times to make sure this wasn't a dream. "I-I'd be glad too."

~.~

Kid headed over to his morning therapist.

He's been getting comments from his friends saying that he's been acting foul lately to everyone he meets. What's worse is that he would pick futile fights with strangers saying that it calms his down.

The therapist would usually ask Kid to talk about the things that happened to him yesterday, and she would to work things out from there.

Kid was currently telling her about how his day was going well yesterday, until it came evening. He tells his therapist about he picked a fight with these two guys, and honestly he doesn't know why. He tells her how the young one of the two had apologized. He still got in a fight with the two, but unfortunately he lost. He had to go to the doctor, get his ribs fixed up, and get bandaged.

Kid tells the therapist what the two guys look like.

"I-I know what you're going to say," Kid sighed. He pulled out a small photograph and held it tightly in his hands.

The therapist gave kid a strange look, "Can I see that?" She asks pointing at the photo.

Kid hesitantly hands her the photo.

The photo was a younger version of both Ace and Luffy.

Kid explained to her that the young one had accidentally dropped it, and failed to notice. He told her how he met the young one again this morning, but couldn't give back the photo. He seemed to be having a conversation with an old high school class mate of his.

That wasn't the true reason for why he didn't return the picture. For the past week his eyes has just been glued on the younger one. At first he kept the picture to use as a target, but as he kept on looking at it, he decided not to do that. Days had past and every time he got the chance to he would pull out the picture and stare at it; especially at Luffy. The bright smile of his did something to Kid. His angry expression turned more into a smile; the more he looked at the picture.

Kid smiles when she hands the picture back.

"You're smiling," The therapist chuckled, "You rarely do that."

Kid found himself blushing, "I-I am?"

"Yes, and you are also blushing," she said still chuckling.

Kid shook his head, "I don't know. It's just ever since I had this photo, I've been looking at it ever since. Especially at the young one. This might sound crazy, but I think his smile of his might be doing something to me. Like one minute I am mad, the next thing you know I'm smiling."

The therapist broke out into a whole hearten laugh, "I'm starting to think that you like him."

Kid looked at her shocked. Him? Liking Luffy? Maybe it was something else he was feeling. He wasn't really sure.

~.~

Luffy was finally out of work, and he was hanging with his Nami.

Luffy had called Nami telling her that he needed his help. He told her how Sabo asked him on a date (Nami squealed) and now needed something to wear.

It didn't take long for Nami to meet Luffy at the mall.

"I don't think I want to wear this," Luffy said holding up the suit and looking disgusted at it. "It's not really my sight."

"C'mon it would make you look handsome," Nami looked at him with pleading eyes.

Luffy shook his head, "I'm not going. Plus, I'm pretty sure where we are going isn't going to be somewhere formal."

"Fine," Nami sighed.

It takes long for them to find something for Luffy (Nami was also looking for something for herself).

"Did you tell Ace that you were going on a date with Sabo," Nami asks as soon as they leave the mall.

Luffy stops, and just goes in a thought. Does he really have to? He knows that Ace might probably say something like "No", but he knew the reason behind it. It was his life though, he could decide whether he could go out on this date with Sabo or not. "Not" was not a part of his option.

"No, and I don't plan on it either," Luffy said giving out a little hmph.

Nami sighed. She could tell that Luffy was being a hell of a stubborn guy. However, she did understand him. She also thought it would be if Luffy would just tell Ace, so Ace wouldn't have to worry.

"Just do it. Ace might be questioning you if you start to leave the house late."

Luffy rolled his eyes, "Fine, I'll call but if he denies I am still going to sneak out."

~.~

Sabo was playing pool with Ace, in Ace's house.

He had called Ace at first to talk about Luffy, but Ace had invited him to his house instead.

They were playing a nice game, and Sabo was trying to think of a way to bring up the topic.

"Do you always play pool?" Sabo asked him.

Ace putted in a solid ball, "Sometimes I do. I play it with my friends and Luffy."

"Speaking of Luffy," Sabo started out saying.

Ace paused what he was doing and looked at Sabo, "Yeah what about him?"

"Well, I was wondering if you'd let me go on a date with him," Sabo said slowly.

Ace was about to yell, but he calmed down, "Sure, why not."

"Really," Sabo looked at him confused.

"Yeah it's okay. I mean you did ask me. Plus, you really seem to care about Luffy," Ace smiled.

Sabo blushed, "T-thank you."

"If he comes home crying, I'm kicking your ass," Ace said giving him a stern look.

Sabo shuddered. He really had to make sure that wouldn't happen. He was about to say something to that, but was interrupted by Ace's cell phone.

"Hey Luffy," Ace said nonchalantly

Like Sabo, Luffy was trying to figure out how he could tell Ace he was going on a date with Sabo. With the small hints he was giving out, Ace pretty much knew where he was getting at.

Chuckling, Ace told him that Sabo already told him, and he was okay with it.

Ace ended the call and looked at Sabo, "Don't. Break. His. Heart."

~.~

It was eight o'clock and it was time for Luffy and Sabo's date.

Luffy was standing outside of his work place waiting for Sabo. He was unaware that Kid was approaching him on his left side.

"Hey," Kid said as he approached him.

Luffy jumped back, "W-What do you want?"

Kid grabbed his hand, "Don't worry, I just want to apologize."

Luffy had tried to remove his hand from Kid's, but Kid held on tighter.

"Leave me alone," Luffy said straining himself.

"I just want to tell you something!" Kid yelled, holding on to his hand even tighter than before.

He quickly let his hand slip when he felt a stick hit him hard on the head.

Sabo was walking to the cafe, when he saw Luffy was talking to someone. Getting a closer look, he saw that it was Kid, and he went over and hit him on his head with his blind stick.

"What the hell man?" Kid questioned Sabo.

Sabo gave him a frightening look, "Didn't he tell you to leave him alone?"

"Who are you to him?" Kid asked.

Sabo smirked at him, "I'm his boyfriend." There he said it. He took a quick look at Luffy, then back to Kid. He sure was hoping Luffy didn't take this as a joke.

Kid grunted, unable to say something and left.

"You look amazing," Sabo complimented him.

Luffy blushes, "T-Thanks, so do you."

The atmosphere was quiet between the two, as they walked to the festival that wasn't far away. Luffy stopped walking and looked at Sabo.

"What's the matter?" Sabo asked giving him a worried look.

"Did you really mean what you said back there?" Luffy asked giving him a pleading look.

Sabo didn't say anything and smiled. He took Luffy by both hands and stared right into his eyes, all heartfelt.

Luffy was getting really nervous, his heart was beating and his face was red all over. He was about to say something, but felt Sabo's lips on his own.

He was surprised at first, but quickly eased into the Kiss. Luffy had to be honest with him; Sabo was a pretty good kisser. They both released each other's lips and stared at each other passionately, both blushing.

"Luffy, I love you, a lot. I'd understand if you don't want to go out with me," Sabo said holding Luffy's hand tighter.

Luffy chuckled, he reached up and gave Sabo a peck on the lips, "I love you too, Sabo."

Sabo blushed; he was extremely happy right now. He couldn't stop the smile that was appearing on his face.

The two didn't say anything as they started to move to the festival. They were just enjoying the moment. Luffy's arm was wrapped around Sabo's; he was also leaning his head on his shoulders as they walked. Sabo didn't mind at all, he was happy with this. He was happy Luffy accepted his feelings. He was happy they could go on their first date.

Sabo and Luffy hummed contently. They would surely cherish this moment in their hearts forever.
