CURSED or BLESSED [22] : Crush? Love? As Long as I know, You are Special
Unconsciously Law pulled the little noirette into his hug. He just couldn't let him crying without someone whom could offer him a chest.
"I-.. I still have my naka-..ma.. I still have Jiji and Maki-chan… and..- and I found you-…." Luffy stuttered in between his uncontrollable outburst.
* HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *
"Yeah, you found me, and I found you." Law said softly, inhaling Luffy's unique comfortable scent. Luffy was hugging him back, like all of his life depending on the taller man. He was crying his heart out, to let free his guilty, to let go his deceased beloved grandfather, to let loose the nagging feeling inside himself. Law just kept his silence, hugging the smaller frame with all his heart, giving his little noirete whatever strength he needed, giving everything that he could.
"Torao… I'm sorry… I'm sorry that I forget about you… I'm sorry that I forgot about Ji-chan, I'm sorry for blaming it on Zoro… on Sabo… I'm so selfish, I-Iam…"
"Hush, Luffy-ya… It's normal to burst out like that. The most important thing is what will you do after this. Will you keep blaming them? Will you forgive them? It's your decision to make." Law answered him, caressing his jetblack hair. Luffy was lean and small, but somehow in a way or another he was a perfect fit in Law's hug.
"To-Torao…"
"Yeah?"
"Tha-thank you… You're so ki-kind.." the sob now changed into a stuttered giggle, in which Law was relieved to see that.
"You taught me how to be kind… to you." He huffed, smiling contently. Yes, Luffy had taught him, long long time ago, when he was still a Razlet, when they met for the first time. Luffy taught him everything about being a kid, about being a friend, about being a human, about love and how to love. They said first love would never die. Law didn't believe it at first, but now seeing and realizing this bubbly feeling inside himself, he couldn't deny the poet. But hell no he would confess to the little noirette. Not now, not ever, because he was something else now. He wasn't capable to give the obnoxious shinning boy what he wanted, what he needed. Because he was condemned with a heavy sin, which made him what he was now. A demon – the surgeon of death. A creature who knew nothing about love, about kindness, about light, a complete opposite of his.. uh- the over-excited young Razlet.
"To, to me? What is the meaning of that?" Luffy rubbed his red eyes, erasing the mess he made on his cute handsome face.
"I am kind, only for you." Law replied, smirking sexily. Too sexy in Luffy's opinion, but he didn't – ehm.. couldn't – averted his gaze away. Before he noticed, his face heated up and rosette hue was tinting his already plump cheeks.
[He is cute.] Law thought, but in a split second his eyes widened in horror, [the-the hell was that! Fuck!]
"…- ome." Luffy's voice was reverberating in the air, but Law didn't seem to hear it clearly.
"Wh-what was that?"
"I- I said.. Torao, Torao's smirking face is.. so hand-handsome…" Luffy twirled both of his fingers, setting his head down, blushing even darker than before.
And yeap, the demon's face pumped all of his blood up onto his face, making himself reddened in shock. Luffy was trying to praise him? Holy hell!
* HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *
"seriously... You have to learn self-restrain, kuso-Nesatios." Zoro barked, leaning on the blond's shoulder, propping half of his weight onto the blond Vampire. His muscular hand encircled the blond's neck, while Sanji was dragging him around.
"Uhh... My bad. Never know I let loose like that." Sanji replied, though he said sorry, no tone of sorry laced in it. He giggled. The beast growled playfully.
"Hey... What do you mean by smell just now?" Zoro asked suddenly.
"Smell?"
"Yeah. The sweet smell you said before."
"Uuh... That was..."
"Was what?"
"No-nothing. Ermm.." Sanji frowned, hesitating whether to tell him or not. Zoro eyed him for several seconds, but said nothing in the end.
"Where are we going?" Zoro asked, dropping the subject.
"Back to the cave."
"Ah... Are you sure?"
"Yeah. We gave him some times, he should be okay now."
"If you say so..."
"Hey baka marimo,"
"The he-"
"Shut up and hear me."
"Kehh! What?"
"Thank you for your understanding all the time. It's still hard for me to open up to the others and.. well, it's-"
"What possessed you? Gosh! I don't care about that. If you need I'll be your support, if you dont I'll try my best not to bother you." Zoro replied.
"Th-not... I-.."
"What? Seriously, be the foul mouth cook you always be. I hate it when you lenient like this. Be yourself!"
"Fuckin marimo! I'm trying to be nice to you but you always make thing hard!"
"Because I know nice is not you. You don't have to be someone you aren't."
Sanji gawked. How... How did he know? Was he too obvious? But up until now, he tried his best not to offend other, trying his best to be a gentleman, but.. but how did this Vill, understood him? In a very short time no less. It was surprising, terrifying even.
"How did... You know?"
"Just my intuition. Did I guess that right?" The beast smirked oh so dangerously sexy.
"Hnmph! Hit the nail, yeah."
"Haha! I knew it."
"Bu.. but still.. thank you, for keeping up with me."
"No worry. Hey, I was the one who ask you to stay with us, so well... It's nothing."
"You really are a strange Vill."
"Reason?"
"Forget it. I'm not telling you."
"Kheeeh... Stingy."
"Hahahaha~~ well, you are the one who said I have to be myself, aren't you?"
"Well yeah. But I might regret that..." Zoro snorted playfully, getting a playful tug on his green mane "By the way.."
"Huuh?"
"I do like your scent."
"Haaah?"
"It's nice..." He paused for several seconds, "and refreshing. I like that. It's comfortable." The beast continued, snuggling deeper into the cook's side neck. The vampire was palpably aghast, too bad Zoro didn't see that.
[Is this fuckin Vill slurring or what? Is he trying to say, he feels comfortable around me?! Is he joking? It isn't even funny!] The vampire thought, albeit the fact that his face was betraying him by changing his shade into a nice rosette color. Fucking face!
"I-I al.. also like yo-your scent..." He said stuttering, "it's sweet and calm, just perfect." The blond finished his words. But he got no respond. He stole a quick glance. His jaw dropped, his only visible eye twitched, the beast was sleeping contently on him.
[BAKA MARIMO! And here I am saying utter nonsense! But...]
But it was part of his fault for making the green head lost half of his blood.
This Vill was too blunt and apathetic but in the same time, he was kind and caring. He managed to crack open the vampire's perfect shell around his heart. Sanji huffed and smiled whole heartily. He stopped their little trip to the cave just to scan the green head sleeping form. He was handsome and stunning. Sanji couldn't hold a sudden urge to place all kind of kisses on his sun kissed face, it would be such a plea- wait.. wait what?! Ki- kisses?
[The hell with me?! Am I losing my mind?! It won't be happening. It won't happen. Not even for once. Zoro would kill me. He would...] But what if he didn't know? Well basically they would still kiss, right? It was just the way Zoro ate. So, it would still count a kiss right? Even though it held no emotion at all...
The blond bit his lower lip, hesitated at first. Seconds later he made a decision. Slowly, he moved forward, pressing his lips onto the temple of the sleeping beast, giving him a chaste kiss.
"I might have been falling for you..." Sanji whisper softly, barely audible even for himself, "I'm sorry for making everything hard for you." The blond continued, letting a sad smile before continuing their trip back into the cave.
* HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *
"Nee, Torao.." Luffy glanced up, searching for the other noirette dusty grey enigmatic orbs.
"Hmm?" Law who was leaning on a rock, securing the little Razlet smaller frame in his hug, responded.
"About what you said just now, what was that about?" Luffy asked while snuggling deeper to the hand which was playing with his jetblack messy hair wantonly.
"Which one?"
"Y-Your past… and what did you suffer back then? Would you-.. could you,.. could I be your sh-sharing partner?" the noirette asked carefully. He had no right, he knew it, but he couldn't help it. He needed to know – he wanted to know everything about this demon, this exact captivating demon. His very first Razlet friend whom had changed into something else, before they met for the second time.
Law froze, and hell, Luffy did notice that quite immediately. In a swift motion, Law suddenly stood up, making the boy frowned all over. Did he say something wrong? What had happened?
"I-if you want… I can be your place to vent up about anything." The young Razlet asked carefully. But the taller noirette stayed shut. Luffy frowned in remorse. Was it that bad? Was it even worse than his problem? But he really wanted to know, to helped him, at least, even only for a little, eased the demon a bit.
Luffy heard Law's huff. It was heavy, somehow laced with a pain, dark emotion.
"Thank you but… I don't think you're ready for this."
"I- I will! For Torao I will-"
"I don't think I'm ready for it either." Law quickly cut his words, effectively shut the smaller frame. Luffy felt his heart clenched with dull pain, it wasn't bad but he sure it was there. To be rejected by this man was… making him disheartened. He didn't understand why, but it stung like a small cut being washed by an alcohol.
Slumping his head and shoulders down, the boy replied,
"O-okay, if you say so." The tone was flat rather gloomy. Law blinked once, twice. He didn't even realize he already brought himself on the same level on Luffy, in front of him.
[Was.. was he sulking?]
"Lu-Luffy-ya… Are you sulking?"
"No." he answered quick.
"You are."
"I am not." He snorted.
"See…"
"I am not! And- wait… what did you call me?"
"Luffy-ya? Why?"
"Th-that's my real name…"
"Well, yeah. So why?" Law creased his eyebrow, confused.
"I'm soooo happy, you finally call me by my name!" in a split second, the super-excited boy was already standing up and lunge onto the demon whom was caught off guard. The two toppled to the grass on the ground, and a loud thud resounding in the air.
"Shiiittt! Lu-Luffy-ya it's hurt!" Law hissed, rubbing the back of his head.
"See~~ Call me again, Torao~" Luffy sang. His dark mood was instantly gone and replaced with his usual eccentric shinning personality, grinning and giggling on top of Law's body. Law sprawled on his back, his legs were still stuck on the rock, while Luffy was on top of his waist, while his hands were propping his weight beside Law's head. They were so fuckin close for Law's taste, but somehow – while usually he would dissect a person into small pieces if he/she was too close – this time, this boy existence was.. was comforting. Somehow he liked this adjacency. And he was not Law if he didn't retaliate.
"Gaah! N-NO! And move! You're heavy." Law growled, trying to push the young Razlet away from him, while his cheeks were coloring themselves in a nice pinkish tint. Luffy didn't seem had any intention to move away, and he himself, wasn't quite sure he really wanted the younger boy move from atop his body. He was warm, he smelled nice – comfortable even, he was cute and his slender body was… was…
[FUCK! STHAP THIS BRAIN! FUCKIN IDIOT BRAIN!]
"Torao…? Are you alright?" Luffy asked tilting his head to the side which made him even cuter than before.
"Move!" with one swift motion, Law flipped them over, making themselves in reverse position.
He was now on top of Luffy, propping himself with his elbows, between his elbows was Luffy who was widened his night orbs in stupefaction. The small razlet was simply admired the view in front of his gaze. Law was tall and lanky, but that didn't mean he was thin. Under his black long coat which covered his whole body, Luffy's hand could trace those well-built muscles under it. Unconsciously Luffy halted his own breath, captivated into those enigmatic dusty grey worm-hole of orbs.
"Hey…" echoed the sound in his mind. Luffy didn't respond, he was still staring, enraptured by them.
"Luffy-ya." That snapped Luffy out of the trance.
"Hyeaaash?"
"Wh- hyeash?"
"I- I mean… yes?" the little razlet quickly corrected his words.
"What the hell is that? Hahaha!" Law laughed.
Luffy quickly blushed adorably, the sole reason was that Law's laugh was so… so beautiful.
"Hey! Don't go back into the trance." The demon voice rang again.
"I- I don't!"
"Looks like you will though."
Luffy averted his gaze and pouted. Law was quite shock, seeing this cute little reaction. And he needed all his self-control and conscience to refrain himself from kissing the smaller boy underneath him. He bit his lower lip, harder than necessary. It bled a little, but it was the only way to regain his-self's control. Yes, he had to stop, before he fell to deep, far deeper into it.
"Heey..." Law called the smaller boy, his voice wavered a little, though it seems Luffy didn't notice that.
"Huum?" Luffy hummed.
"Are you ready to get back to face them?"
"... Yeah." Luffy answered with firm conviction.
"Great. Let's go."
"Lets... I also have to apologize to Zoro and Sabo."
"That's good to hear." Law smiled softly, praising the strange Razlet.
* HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *
"Feeling better?" Ace asked to his lover, snuggling himself into the nape of his neck. Sabo responded with a weak nod.
"C'mon… You know him better, right? He won't stay angry too long. He'll be back." The noirette continued, tightening his hug from behind. Sabo leaned to savor more of his warm affection.
"I know, but.." the blond Razlet sighed.
"Why did you keep the secret from him exactly?"
"… It was too painful for him to know the truth. He was just what? Four? Five? We just didn't want him to bear such thing."
"Well, is that what you call brother's love?" Ace chuckled softly, placing a quick peck on the Razlet cheek.
"Maybe. I don't know."
"I might do the same thing if I was you."
"I believe that. You love him as much as I love him." Sabo giggled, while playing with the dangling jet black hair atop of him.
"But I love you more than anything."
"Hmph! Do you?"
"You don't believe me?" the demon pouted, rolling his eyes. Sabo laughed and facing him, knelt in front of him."
"I don't. But I do believe your love for me is real." Sabo whispered, leaning forward, while his long limbs encircle around the demon's neck, he latched their lips together. Without wasting anytime, Ace licked those soft lips and as fast as he got permission to intrude the hot wet cave, he did it. Exploring every nook and cranny of Sabo's mouth, he drank the blond's throaty moan making a shiver going straight down along his spine.
"Then.. what ab-about you?" the noirette asked in between their tongue intense battle for dominance.
"wh-what?"
"Do you lo-…ve me?"
"Do- do you think, I'll let you- mmh… kiss me like th-is if I do-n't.. nmhh.."
"Hee… So, it's my privilege then," the demon snickered and deepened their kiss, deliberately sneaked his hand into Sabo's cloth to make a feathery scratch on the blond's pale sensitive back spine.
"A-Ace... We shou-shouldn't.. nggh~ do th-this."
"Mmmn... Because you're so tempting but, yeah." Ace complied and broke their searing kiss before placed another quick peck on his lover.
"Believe in Luffy. You know him so well, you know him better than me." The noirette reassured his blond again, pulling Sabo's head onto his muscular chest. Sabo nodded, agreeing with him.
"Yeah... You are right." The razlet sighed tiredly, closing his eyes to savor more of the demon's love.
"What is right?" Came the voice from the way out of the cave. Both Sabo and Ace quickly set their gaze to the source of the voice.
"L-LUFFY!" shouted Ace while Sabo was already stood up and lunging to his little brother, hugging him tightly. The lanky demon beside Luffy was just watching the entire scene, his eye twitched ever so slightly.
"Please Luffy… You have to believe us. We don't want you to be hurt, so we had to keep it like before. Luffy stayed still, saying nothing.
"Luffy…" Sabo called with softer tone.
Then the little noirette reciprocated his gesture.
"I know. I understand. But I hate it when you have to burden yourself like that. I want us to share about everything together. Isn't that what family for? I want to feel your happiness, your joy, and that include your pain, your burden. Not just you… but us." Luffy put his chin onto the blond's shoulder, explaining his reason for bursting out back then.
"You know.. You don't have to blame him. If you want to blame then, it will be me and me alone."
"Zoro!" Both Sabo and Luffy turned their attention to the green head, who was just appearing together with his partner, so did Ace and Law who kept their mouth shut but their eyes were on them.
"What happen to you now?" Sabo asked rolling his eyes, while Luffy already entangled himself from his brother and quickly move to the beast who was still leaning on Sanji's shoulder.
"Usual thing." Sanji answered for Zoro who was being choked to nearly die because apparently Luffy thought it was a good punishment for him.
"Luffy, stop it! He is dying." Law quickly pulled Luffy away from Zoro because you see, whatever reason the noirette Razlet might had, their adjacency was causing a trouble for the death surgeon to witness it any longer.
"Wh-what the hell?!" the Farligenete gasped for air then barked to his 'master'.
"Consider it was your punishment for keeping secret from me." Luffy pouted. His hands crossing in front of his chest. Zoro growled in desperate manner but he didn't chide anymore, just sulking like a cute little puppy.
"So, what is that usual thing?" Sabo frowned to Sanji who was already retreated to the most left of the cave wall.
"I sucked him too much."
"Yo-you sucked him? Never know a blond could be as frank as you. Sabo-chan, Can I get o- OWW!" Ace quickly got a raging smack on the top of his head from Sabo, "OOUCCCHH! Heey! Stop it!" oh, added another one from Sanji too.
"He is a vampire for your info." Law spoke coldly from behind his demon partner.
"He- what?"
"You heard me."
"So what if he is a vampire? It doesn't mean he can- uh?"
"They are talking about blood, idiot. I'm surprised Sabo could stand you, gosh!" Law rolled his eyes tiredly.
"Anyway… where are we?" Luffy asked.
"You just ask that now?" Sabo's jaw dropped comically.
"Huum… If I'm not wrong, this is not the Menneske Verden, is it?"
"Yeah, it isn't. It's Annen Verden. Basically, it's their world."
"Whose world?"
"Our wold." Sanji answered for Sabo, getting an 'O' mouth shape from Luffy.
"So when do we plan to go back?" Sabo asked, yawning.
"Now? It's not a good idea to stay here for too long actually." Zoro explained, scratching his green mane.
"That's great to hear.. tthhheeeeennnn..." Luffy suddenly slurred and before he could utter any other words out of his mind, he collapsed. But Law as he already predicted it, he caught the smaller youth.
"Lu-Luffy-ya!" Law called with tone laced with worry.
"S-Saboo!" Ace's voice also resounded in the cave, calling the dusty blond head who also passed out seconds later.
"What the hell?!" Zoro roared in horror.
"Wh-what happened to them?" Law hollered in horror.
"Shit! Hurry and bring them back into the Menneske!" Sanji wailed, realizing something. The other was just stay silent, didn't get what had happen.
"QUICK!" Sanji repeated, creating that bluish gate from before, connecting to the Menneske Verden.
