At times like these it would seem like life was a dream, but really, it wasn't. Was his eyes misleading him, for safe measures, Law pinched himself. Nope, this was positively real life. Law was currently in Kyōshi Smoker class staring startlingly at the new pupil.
"Ok class, please welcome our new pupil, Monkey D. Luffy." Smoker said dully
Not much of a welcome was done, but either way Luffy didn't mind. He took the empty seat next to Law, not really showing a sign of greeting.
Smoker was currently in middle of a session, Luffy did try paying attention, but his mind soon wandered off to the male he sat next too. Law looked focused as he looked straight to the board, he knew he could understand all of this, he did.
Law wasn't focused. In fact his mind was wondered off to the new pupil of the class.
Should I say hi? Law thought debating with himself
Law really didn't know what was wrong with him. He was seriously debating whether he should say Hi or not. Little did he know, Luffy was having the same troubles too.
That was it, Luffy wasn't the one t be known for the shy type. He had many friends that labeled him as whatever, and all those truly described him. Deciding to quit debating with himself, he tore out a piece of paper and wrote the two letter conversation starters, hi. Putting his pen down, he passed it to Law.
"Law, Luffy!" Smoker said loudly stopping his session
Law groaned underneath his breath, he was hoping to read the note in peace, but I think we all know sometimes that could be unfeasible.
"Since you both are passing notes why won't you both come up to the class and tell what's on it."
Luffy and Law both stood up and bravely went up front. It's not like a secret was hidden on the paper, but Law of course didn't know that himself.
Luffy looked at the class, all eyes on him, he then looked at Law briefly then back to the class and said the two letter words out, "hi."
There were many things in life to smile about, but for some reason, Law found this one unbeatable. He didn't know why but the words spoken from Luffy's mouth made him feel all flurry inside. He too turned to the class and portrayed himself as a mirror, "hi."
Both of course were sent back to their seats, with no punishment. However Smoker was the one trying t hide his embarrassment. It wasn't like he suspected, there were no secrets, no profanity, no comments on the teacher, just a simple greeting.
Law was actually glad he went up there, who knew words sounded much better out loud then on paper. He took a quick glance on Luffy, it was like déjà vu.
Luffy was currently flipping pages of his notebook. There are times when Luffy flipped pages, but there was always a reason to it. No he didn't do it because he found it fun, he did it for his own satisfaction. He took a quick glance at Law, and looked away. Yep he definitely needed to continue flipping pages. it was the only thing that calmed his heart beat.
From the corner eyes, Law had caught Luffy glance at him. Before Law had found it peeving on how the boy continued to flip pages, but now...
Law simply took his notebook and started to flip the pages, just as Luffy would. He didn't understand the meaning of it. He was soon to find out why Luffy always flipped pages, Maybe there was a reason to it.
...Law didn't find it peeving much, but interesting.
