"...Luffy?" Nami blurted out with her eyes wide.
Luffy's jaw dropped, "so… it really is you-" before he could finish Nami had jumped up from her desk and was giving him the biggest hug. He smiled and then frowned when he heard her crying and felt tears landing on his shoulder. "Whaa? Nami? Are you okay?"
"Yeah… I'm just," she said while wiping away her tears, " I'm just so happy. I was so scared coming to this new school, and I never would have thought you'd be here.. It's just… It's just so crazy, I mean what are the chances? But I'm so happy.."
"HEY! LUFFY! WHY ARE YOU EMBRACING THIS BEAUTIFUL WOMAN? AND WHY IS SHE CRYING? YOU MADE THIS LOVELY LADY CRY? WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?"
"Oh, Hey, Sanji!" Luffy said with a huge grin, separating himself from Nami, "This is Nami!"
Nami looked up to see the same guy who had been drooling over her before. Great…
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Nami-san," Sanji said before kissing Nami's hand.
"Ah-ha-ha…." Nami laughed awkwardly and pulled her hand away, "Nice to meet you too."
The bell suddenly rang and it was time to leave homeroom and head to their next class.
"Ooh! Ooh! Nami, we have art next! Just follow me!" Luffy said with a smile.
Throughout the day, Nami began to feel so much more comfortable at her new school with Luffy right by her side. All day, he would constantly make sure she was okay and never leave her side. She knew they would become great friends. Before she knew it, it was already time for lunch.
"Hey, Nami! Lemme introduce you to my friends!" Luffy said before grabbing her hand and walking her over to them, causing her to blush slightly. "Hey guys! This is Nami! We met online and she told me she was moving, but I never thought it'd be to here!"
Nami shyly waved at everyone at the table.
"HELLO NAMI-SWAAAN." shouted Sanji.
"Hey Nami, I'm Robin, and this is Vivi," said a girl with a friendly smile. She had long black hair and the girl next to her had long blue hair.
"Nice to meet you!" said Nami with a huge smile.
"And we already met, I'm Usopp! And that guy over there is Zoro, and that's Tony Tony Chopper." Usopp said pointing to a guy with green hair who had fallen asleep at the lunch table, and a short boy with brown hair.
"It's really nice to meet you all," said Nami happily, " I was so nervous coming to a new school today and not knowing anyone, so it's really nice to meet such welcoming people."
"Hey Nami! Let's go get food!" cheered Luffy.
"Okay!" said Nami with a smile.
When they came back to the table with their food Nami noticed Luffy bring back two full trays. Assuming he was getting food for his friends, she didn't think much about, but then she watched him devour it all in five minutes and sat there in shock.
"What's wrong, Nami?" said Robin with a look of concern.
"H-how?" began Nami, making the others give her looks of confusion, "HOW DID YOU DO THAT? AND YOU'RE SO SKINNY. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?" Nami yelled, pointing at Luffy, which made everyone at the table burst out laughing.
"That's the captain for you." stated Zoro, who was now awake, "Hey, I'm Zoro."
"I'm Nami, nice to meet you!" smiled Nami, but then looked confused, "Captain?"
"That's just our nickname we gave Luffy," began Usopp, "If it wasn't for him, all of us probably would never have met and became friends."
"Ah." Nami said looking over at Luffy.
"Wait, Luffy, is this the Nami that you haven't stopped talking about?" said Zoro with a smirk on his face, causing Luffy to blush.
"Shut up, Zoro…" he whispered.
Nami blushed and giggled. Lunch was over and it was time for them to go back to class. For the rest of the day, they followed their schedule, and once again, Luffy did whatever he could to make sure Nami felt comfortable. Before she knew it, it was the end of the school day and she let out a huge sigh of relief. It was a friday so she had the whole weekend to relax and take in the very eventful first day she had. As the last bell rang, Nami got up and started to pack up her stuff.
"Hey Nami! Can I walk you home?" said Luffy with his huge grin.
Nami smiled back, "Sure, why not."
As they walked down the street, Nami couldn't help but smile. "I can't believe we're going to the same school."
"Me neither!" exclaimed Luffy, "When I walked up to you this morning, it would've been so awkward if it was a different Nami. Shishishishi! But it was you. And I'm so happy." Luffy said before looking over at Nami with a soft smile, accidentally locking eyes, causing them both to blush and look away.
Pretty soon they reached Nami's house where Nojiko was sitting in a lawn chair on the grass reading a magazine. Shit… Nami thought when she looked up and spotted them.
"Well, well, well!" Nojiko teased, "What do we have here? Nami has a boyfriend! On her first day! Go Nami!"
"He's not my boyfriend, Nojiko…" Nami said angrily while trying to hide a slight blush.
"HI!" Luffy said happily, making Nami facepalm, "I'm Luffy!"
Nojiko instantly sat up, "Wait… THE Luffy that you were texting the other day?"
"Yes. We didn't know we would end up in the same school, it was a huge surprise. Now go away." Nami said with her arms crossed.
Nojiko looked Luffy up and down, "Oooooo. Nami, he's a cutie. Get it, girl!"
"SHUT UP, NOJIKO."
"Okay… Okay… Seriously, you guys WOULD look cute together…" said Nojiko, causing both Nami and Luffy to blush.
"BYE, NOJIKO."
"Fine." Nojiko groaned before getting up and walking inside.
"I'm so, so sorry about that…" Nami said, completely embarrassed.
"Shishishi, it's okay, Nami." Luffy smiled, "OH! I almost forgot! The whole crew is going to the beach tomorrow if you wanna come! It'll be fun!"
Nami thought about it for a second, then smiled, "Okay, I'll be there!"
"Cool!" cheered Luffy, " I'll see ya tomorrow then! Bye, Nami, I'll text ya!"
Nami waved goodbye before walking into the house and plopping down on her couch...Man..It's been a long day.. Nami thought before drifting off to sleep for a couple hours till dinner was ready. She was exhausted, but she couldn't wait to see what tomorrow had in store for her.
