Chapter 3: The First Time


Usopp was atop the crows' nest, watching the sun set behind the horizon. His hair, wet from his recent shower, dripped water droplets that trailed down his toned body leaving rivulets in their wake. He leaned back on his hands and marvelled at the stars above his head, enjoying the rare quietness of the ship. Luffy and most of the others were already in bed, excited to get an early start the next morning when they would arrive at their next destination.

Usopp felt the presence behind him before he heard the footsteps walking across the wood. He dropped his head, smiling awkwardly as he looked upside down at the tall man behind him, "evening, Law."

"God-ya," Law nodded as he settled down beside the sniper. He placed his sword down next to him before looking Usopp in the eyes, "on watch tonight, I see?"

Usopp sighed, "I took over for Nami." He covered a yawn with his arm and discreetly rubbed his eyes. "We will be arriving at the next island tomorrow morning. It just made sense to have her rest." He pulled a knee to his chest and leaned his cheek on it so he could study Law. "What are you doing here?"

"I couldn't sleep."

"Ah," Usopp turned his face back towards the sky so that Law wouldn't see the disappointment that marred his face. Of course, he only came by because he couldn't sleep and was bored.

"God-ya," Law said, drawing Usopp's attention back. When Usopp turned to him, Law slid his hand to the back of his neck and pulled him close. "Can I kiss you?"

"Y-yeah," he stuttered and pressed his lips against Law's. Fuck it, who cares why he came? He smiled and opened his mouth to tangle his tongue with Law's when the surgeon's tongue slipped passed his lips. Usopp pulled himself to his knees, his hands gripping the other's shoulders to help balance himself as he moved to sit in Law's lap.

Law tangled his hands in Usopp's hair and angled his head so that he could pillage the other's willing mouth. He smirked, eyes darkening when Usopp groaned against his lips and shivered under his hands. Usopp slipped his hands under Law's coat, fingers deftly massaging the muscles under his hands before he began to slid it off the man's strong shoulders.

He pressed his lips to Law's neck, enjoying the smell and feel of the older man under his body. He sucked lightly into Law's collarbone, smiling when he felt his hips grind up against his own. "La-"

"Usopp, I brought you a- what are you doing‽" The cigarette in Sanji's mouth fell to the floor as he stared in shock at the scene before him.

Usopp scrambled off Law's lap, accepting the other man's help when he almost fell back and hit his head against the floor. "Sa-Sa-Sanji," Usopp stuttered, as he wiped his lips with the back of his hand. His heart hammered in his chest as he stared at his crewmate wearily. "F-fancy, s-s-s-seeing you h-h-here." He looked down and scowled at himself, unable to believe that he couldn't keep his words straight. With Law, sure, he was intimidating and their relationship was fairly new, but Sanji?

The cook placed the tray in his hand down on the floor and crossed his arms, glaring darkly at the two men sat on the floor in front of him. "What is going on here?"

Law, not one to shy away from well, anything, stood and stared down the chef, not in the least intimidated by the man in front of him. "God-ya and I have started a friends-with-benefits relationship." His eyes trailed to Usopp when an injured animal sound that left the sniper's mouth before looking back at Sanji. "For obvious reasons, we were keeping it a secret."

"I have to talk to Usopp privately, please go."

Usopp jumped up, his eyebrows knitting together as he opened his mouth in protest, "Sanji, you're being rude!"

"Quiet, Usopp. I will deal with you in a minute." He turned his gaze back to Law, "off the ship, now, Trafalgar."

Law leaned down and grabbed his sword, "I am leaving because I have an alliance with your captain and wish to respect that. Nothing more." He turned to Usopp and handed him his coat, which the sniper wrapped around himself. "Keep it on, it is supposed to get cold tonight. I will see you later, God-ya."

"Not if I can help it!" Sanji snapped, he watched with a glare as Law jumped off the crows' nest and onto the deck of his own ship. He turned to Usopp, "what the fuck were you thinking, Usopp?"

"What?" Usopp snapped defensively, glaring at his friend. He had zipped up the coat and pulled the sleeves over his hands to keep them warm. He suddenly was freezing without Law's body to keep him warm.

"He is seven years older than you and the captain of a rival crew. What the hell makes you think what you've been doing is smart?"

"I like him," Usopp said, throwing up his hands in frustration. "I like him and what we do feels good." Usopp clicked his tongue and rolled his eyes at the look of disbelief on Sanji's face. "I feel safe with him and it's fun. Remember fun?"

Sanji's face softened and he walked up to the other male, leaning down so he could meet Usopp's eyes. "You're going to get hurt," Sanji whispered. "You understand that right?"

Usopp raised an eyebrow but said nothing so Sanji continued, taking the silence as a sign the sniper was listening. "You love very wholly, Usopp. You are a caring person and get attached to people and things very easily." At Usopp's snort of derision, he added, "once you get to know them. When our alliance with the Heart Pirates ends, Law and the others will go away- it is going to break your heart."

Usopp's eyebrows scrunched together, "we are just having fun, there are no feelings involved."

Sanji gripped his shoulders and pressed his forehead against Usopp's, "it starts off that way." He closed his eyes, "it might even still be that way, but, you aren't someone who is able to sustain that type of relationship without forming an attachment."

Usopp huffed and pulled away from Sanji, shaking his head. "That won't happen. I'm being careful."

"Usopp, for me, please stop seeing Law."

Usopp groaned, running his hands through his hair in frustration. "I'll take what you said into consideration, but I am not making any promises. I'm an adult, Sanji. One who can take care of themselves- I've been doing so for a very long time."

"I know that. But, you don't have to take care of yourself anymore. You have a family now."

"Thanks, Sanji." Usopp sat down and pulled the tray Sanji brought up to him towards himself. He listened as Sanji sighed and walked away. "Make sure you apologize to Law. He didn't deserve that." Sanji made a non-commital noise before he jumped out of sight.

Usopp threw himself back and huffed as he closed his eyes to the stars, "fuck."

The wind began to pick up beside him, and when he looked to the left, Law was sat beside him. "Sanji is going to murder you."

"He is free to try," Law smirked.

Usopp laughed and shook his head. "He thinks this 'friends with benefits' thing is going to end up with me hurt- he doesn't want that."

"You might."

"Maybe. I might also die tomorrow," Usopp pointed out. He leaned back, causing his long hair to spill over his shoulders and fan down his back.

Law held his tongue and did not say what he wanted to. Instead, he said, "maybe we should stop. It'll be better for you."

Usopp rolled his head until he was looking at Law, "how?"

"For one, I am dangerous."

"So is Luffy when he sleeps- he's tried to eat me three times this week. Doesn't stop me from being on the crew."

Law shook his head, "you know what I mean."

Usopp shrugged his shoulders, "I don't really care. I'm having fun, and I can protect myself if I really need to." He sat up and rolled until he was on his knees, scowling at how difficult it was due to the tightness of the coat around his legs.

Law undid the zipper and wrapped his arm under the coat around Usopp's waist to pull him to his side. Lightly, he brushed his nose against the apple of Usopp's cheek as Usopp leaned up, and filled the gap between them. He pressed open-mouthed kisses to the curve of Law's jaw. His skin was smooth against Usopp's lips and he smelt faintly of aftershave. Usopp dragged his mouth away from Law and exhaled shakily at the feel of Law's hands on his body. He grinned, eyeing Law's lips. They were so close and seemed to call him.

Law turned his head, tilting it so that Usopp's lips brushed against his own. Usopp's eyes fluttered shut as he settled their lips together. He sighed when Law breathed against his mouth, pressing himself close to Law as the surgeon's strong arms wound around his waist.

Their noses brushed together and their lips didn't quite fit at first- Usopp feeling more hesitant than the times before, but when he steadied his hands on Law's chest, he kissed Law like he would never kiss him again. He felt himself get lost in the moment and didn't take time to worry about the consequences of what he was doing.

Law placed a hand on top of Usopp's when he felt the sniper slowly begin to slip his fingers under the band of his pants. "Do you know what you're doing?" Law asked against his lips.

"I'm no expert, but I would say I am kissing you," Usopp smirked and dropped his forehead against Law's cheek. "And touching you," he amended as he brushed his fingers across Law's abdomen.

"You're positive you want to be doing that?" Law's voice was covered in a darkness that Usopp hadn't felt in a while. Usopp shook off the tingling of warning he felt at the back of his neck and continued his ministrations.

Usopp ran his hand over Law's body and curled it into the hair at the nape of his neck, knocking the hat off Law's head. "I'm mostly confident," he muttered and pulled him back in.

Law took a moment to respond but relaxed into the kiss when Usopp's hands ran over his chest. He slowly began to slip his hands under Law's shirt before he was stopped again, Law shaking his head 'no', mouth pulling away from Usopp's.

"You're making a mistake," he says quietly, pinning Usopp's hands in one of his own.

Usopp groaned in frustration and pushed himself forward, pressing their mouths together to shut Law up. Law flailed at first, being thrown off-kilter by Usopp, and quickly let go of Usopp's hands to grip at his waist, steadying the both of them. Usopp quickly wrapped his arms around Law's neck and pressed his front tightly against Law's own. He moaned against Law's mouth and shook as Law tightened his hands around the fabric on Usopp's body.

Law nudged Usopp to the left, and he followed the movement of Law's body, soon finding himself under the captain. Law growled into his mouth as his hands slid under Usopp's shirt, stroking up the lean body while Usopp struggled to take Law's coat off and lay it down behind himself. He laid back against the coat, Law followed suit, their lips melding together while he relaxed on top of the sniper.

Usopp broke away from the kiss, moved his head down and tucked his face into Law's neck. He nosed the neck of Law's sweater aside and began to place a proper love bite to his clavicle. Law grunted, his hips pressing into Usopp's causing his heart to pound in his chest. He loses it at the tug of his hair, Law's fingers winding through the loose curls and lightly pulling at the strands.

Usopp rolled his hips against Laws and pulled back to give him a kiss, enjoying the movements of their bodies. Law gripped his hip and guided the younger one's movements, breath stuttering against the other's lips. Usopp lost himself in the movement of Law's jaw, the push and pull of Law's hand on his hip, the new private sounds Law made when Usopp held or kissed him a certain way. The sky sunk around them, falling into the pure inky blackness that only the witching hour could provide. Only the glow of the moon and the far off shadow of the Polar Tang's deck illuminated them.

"I want you," Usopp panted against Law's lips, unable to stop the shiver run down his body when Law pressed his fingers against his hip bone.

Law froze, "now?"

"Yes, but we can't." Usopp brushed his lips against Law's jaw, "I'm technically on watch."

"I told Penguin to keep watch for both ships," Law murmured and rubbed his face into Usopp's hair, "that isn't the problem."

"Then what is?" Usopp asked. He propped himself up on his elbows to properly look at Law.

Law pulled himself back so that he was sitting on Usopp's thighs, "you need to be absolutely sure, God-ya."

Usopp rolled his eyes, and threw himself back against the cloth of Law's coat, "Usopp." he said firmly as he hooked his long fingers into Law's belt loops and arched his hips into the man's above him. "I'm sure," he added when Law quirked an eyebrow in question. "Why is everyone so obsessed with whether or not I am ready to have sex?"

Law chuckled, a dark smirk falling onto his face before he leaned down to steal a kiss. "We just want to make sure you know what you are getting into, but as long as it's what you want…" he murmured against the sniper's lips, rubbing his nose against the apple of his cheek before nipping and kissing at his jaw, down his neck and onto his clavicle. "... I will happily comply."

Usopp puffed out a laugh, his breath steaming in the air, and melted against the surgeon, his talented fingers slipping through Law's hair as his head rolled to the side, "it's what I want," he whispered, huffing out another laugh when Law's fingers tickled his sides. "I want this with you."

If Usopp sought to think about it, he could figure out how they got where they were in the first place. How he wound up sneaking off the Sunny, almost daily, in the dead of night, how he wound up where he was now, on top of the Thousand Sunny's crow's nest, on his back in Law's arms- what any of it could possibly mean- but he couldn't be bothered with such trivialities.

Law's lips spread into a smile against Usopp's skin, causing him to shiver. "Tell me more about what you want."

Law's hips shifted and lifted as his hands nimbly pulled at Usopp's pants button, managing to get them mostly off before the sniper kicked them from his ankles. "I-I want you to t-take those amazing f-fingers of yours," he started, breath hitching mid-sentence when Law's hand slipped into his underwear. "A-and," he let out a moan, "I want them inside me."

Law gave a filthy laugh that caused Usopp's stomach to turn pleasantly. This will be how I die. "You've done your research?" he asked, dark amusement colouring his tone.

Usopp pulled up his legs, knocking his knees against Law's sides as he covered his face with his arms, face burning. "A few medical textbooks… might have read some graphic descriptions and saw some pictures from Roblin's private collection..." he mumbled in embarrassment.

Law lifted his head, a wicked grin on his face. Usopp screwed his eyes shut and reached down to give his hair a good tug, shoving the surgeon's face into his stomach. "K-knock it off," he mumbled, his nose scrunching from how tight his eyes were closed. "I-I just wanted to understand what was h-happening and get it r-right."

"Have you researched prepping?" Law asked when Usopp finally loosened his grip on his hair.

His head stayed, his lips pressing open-mouthed kisses against the curve of side and slope of Usopp's stomach, causing a small slow groan to release from his lips. Law's teeth skidded against the waistband of Usopp's underwear and he was barely able to manage to choke out his next words, "I-I did… W-well, R-R-Robin l-1ectured me on it." Stupid stuttering, I can't get a word out without sounding like an idiot!

Law peered up, his hands frozen where they were pressed against Usopp's body. "what?"

Usopp groaned, "don't make me r-relive it. It was the s-s-single most excruciatingly embarrassing m-moment of my life. With my dad g-gone and my m-mother d-d-dead, I thought I had escaped the 'talk'."

Law snorted, "you could have asked me, I am a doctor."

"That's what I told her!" Usopp wailed, throwing himself up, accidentally hitting Law in the face with his movement. "I told her you were a d-doctor and were perfectly capable of educating me, but Robin said that you could take advantage of my n-naivete if I let you teach me." Usopp crossed his arms and huffed, "then she said she would have to get Sanji and Zoro involved. I didn't want that, they take their 'big brother' duties way too seriously." He clicked his tongue, rolling his eyes in annoyance.

"Yes, I am quite aware," Law deadpanned as he tapped the side of Usopp's hip, "turn onto your stomach for me."

Usopp blinked owlishly, before doing what he was told, allowing Law to pull off his underwear in the process. He bit his lip as he hid his face in Law's coat. Law may know a lot more than he did, and thus, it would be smart to trust him, but Usopp was unsure what was going to happen next and could feel his anxiety rising more as a result.

He breathed heavily through his nose, forcing his pounding heart to slow down. I'm ready for this, it's going to be okay. Law would never hurt me. Just relax.

He gasped suddenly, wholly involuntarily, when Law suddenly licked a stripe down his spine. Usopp arched his back and buried a hand in his curly hair as a shiver ran through his body.

Law was slowly nipping at Usopp's exposed ass, and the younger boy shifted onto his knees, reaching a hand back to thread through Law's hair. The surgeon hummed before he took Usopp's firm cheeks into his hands and spread them apart, fully exposing Usopp to him.

He trailed his tongue down, swiping delicately around the tight ring of muscles once, twice, probing him gently before releasing the pressure of his tongue. All Usopp could hear against the backdrop of the waves was his own muffled panting.

Law lightly blew against the newly wet and exposed skin, causing Usopp to let out a gasping, "Oh, w-w-wow."

Law leaned back in immediately, Usopp's hand dropped from the surgeon's to cover his own mouth stifling his noises as the surgeon's tongue worked in careful circles, slowly pressing his tongue into him.

Usopp gasped and scratched his hand over his body before firmly pressing against his hip bone and rubbing against it. His back arched, ass pushed against Law's mouth while Law licked into him, tongue moving in lavishly slow.

Usopp let out another whimper and he ground his hips back, nudging his head forward, and feeling the hum Law released run through his spine. Usopp shivered violently, then pushed back harder, trying to ride the flicking of Law's talented tongue. "F-fuck," he grunted, "harder."

Law pulled off after a moment, panting gently against Usopp as he nips at a sensitive spot on his side, causing the sniper to giggle.

"What is it, God-ya?" He said, nipping along Usopp's back and sides. "Need something?"

Usopp squeezed his eyes shut, fists falling and twisting into Law's coat. He wiggled his hips in a way that he hoped was tempting. "Usopp," he corrected. "Would you get in me al-already?" he snapped.

Law smirked, "we have all night, what's the rush?" Usopp gritted his teeth, he could tell that Law was enjoying the power he held over him.

Usopp snarled and flipped over, pulling Law down on top of him. Law chuckled, despite the shock, and tried to push off.

"Hold on," he laughed- it was the first true one that Usopp heard from his lips, too bad he was too busy to truly savour it. "Give me a minute. God-ya- Usopp-" he stopped, moving his fingers to pry the sniper's arms from around his neck while he continued to laugh. "Usopp, I need to get us a condom. Hold on."

Usopp let him go, with a bit of protesting and watched him sit up and dig into the coat pocket beside his hip. "You have condoms?"

Law paused, then nodded, and slipped his hand out of the pocket, a strip of condoms slipping out with the movement. He ripped a square off, before putting them back in his coat and pulling out a small bottle of lube. "I like to be prepared," he says, sitting back on his haunches.

Usopp raised his eyebrows, hoping he looked more smug and cocky than he felt. "Or hoping you'd get laid?"

Law raised an eyebrow back, a dark smirk crossing his face before he leaned down to catch Usopp's mouth with his. Usopp pushed himself up, steadying on his elbows as they made out. Slowly, Law pulled away and began to undress, while Usopp sat up fully, pulling one leg against his chest and resting his chin upon it as he watched the surgeon strip. "How should we do this?"

Law shook his hair out and looked at Usopp from under his bangs, "how would you like to do this?" he asked, pulling off his pants and underwear and setting them behind him just off the coat.

Usopp shrugged, "what would be the easiest way?" Usopp raised to his knees and ran his hands down Law's chest, enjoying the look of his dark skin against Law's lighter tattooed skin.

Law dragged his fingers across Usopp's skin, his fingers massaging the sniper's firm body. He leaned over, pressing a hot kiss against his neck, "you could ride me and we can see where that takes us?"

Usopp shrugged before he nodded, pushing the wet hair plastered to his forehead out of his eyes, "y-yeah, ok." he breathed, slowly exhaling and then giving a hesitant smile.

Law quirked his brow, but Usopp could see how tense he was in his shoulders. "I'm fine, really. I-It's just… it's j-just new. It's good, but new. Newness causes a little a-a-anxiety, I'm fine. Really."

Law relaxed at the reassurance, "good."

Usopp laughed softly, and pulled himself into Law's lap, planting his lips against the others' and pulling him close. His chest knocked into the surgeons, their legs slotting up awkwardly as they shifted. Usopp's thigh rubbed against Law's cock, causing him to release a low, rumbling groan- another first to add to the list. Usopp rubbed against it again, feeling the man below him press into him before he is pushed back and laid flat on the coat. Law sat above him, his hands deftly opening the small container of lube.

Usopp shifted, his hips lifting as his legs spread. His heart began to race in his chest at the sight of Law's lubed fingers. "Are you ready for me to…?"

Usopp nodded, he shifted and pushed himself up, pulling Law down against him. The surgeon nearly falls over and has to steady himself on an elbow as Usopp clumsily pulls him in and kisses him deeply. It wasn't the most romantic kiss in the world, but it certainly felt right.

Nothing had felt more right than having Law kiss him, especially as he felt his fingers pressing around, his long middle finger sliding into him with ease. Usopp gasped against Law's lips and pulled him closer.

Usopp allowed Law's tongue slip into his mouth, eliciting helpless moans, his face burning red. Usopp slipped one hand into Law's hair as the other sliding slowly down his chest. He took Law into his hand and caused an uncharacteristic gasp to leave the surgeon's lips.

Slowly, Law worked his way through three fingers before slowly sliding them out of Usopp, the sniper's hips rolling with each movement of them against him. Usopp groaned, panting as Law pulled away and laid back against his coat. He grabbed Usopp's arm and helped him reposition so that he has hovered over him on all fours. Usopp watched with bated breath while Law rolled on a condom and generously put on lube before he settled, sitting on Law's abdomen. He ground his ass against Law's cock, sighing when he felt Law's hands settle on his sides, thumbs stroking circles into his skin. Usopp felt Law's cock nudge against his opening, and his heart started to beat hard in his chest, his hands became clammy where they lay against Law's chest.

He closed his eyes tightly, and his fingers dug into Law's chest as a wave of anxiety overcome him. Not now, please, not now.

"God-ya," Law sat up, bending his legs to better support the male in his lap. "Are you okay?"

Usopp leaned forward and rested his head in the crook of Law's neck. He was focused on his deep breathing exercises and barely gave him a response. "A moment."

Law shifted and ran his hands up and down Usopp's back, massaging the skin under his fingers.

"It doesn't h-h-hurt… d-does it?" Usopp finally asked in a low voice, his cheek nuzzled against the other's shoulder as he talked.

"Is that what you are worried about?" Law asked, stroking along the other man's thighs and through his hair.

"It won't hurt terribly, you'll be a bit sore after." Law closed his eyes and pressed his lips against Usopp's cheek. He brushed his nose against his jaw, "we don't have to do this if you don't want to." he whispered softly in the other's ear. Usopp nodded, and chewed on his bottom lip.

"Okay," he muttered, pulling his face away from Law's neck.

Law slowly ran a hand down his arm and grabbed his hand to slot their fingers together. Usopp moved, guiding the head of Law's cock to the crown of his ass as he focused his gaze on Law's chest. He watched the tattooed drawings move up and down before he slowly started to sink down, his eyes closing against the feeling.

"Fuck," Usopp hissed, low and deep, as he sank onto Law's cock. His knees wobbled a bit, and he was happy to find that Law had been right, it didn't hurt that much. It was more like pressure. A new pressure that he had never experienced before, but it didn't hurt. Heat swirled in his core as he settled his palm against Law's chest and he sunk himself further onto his cock, slowly rocking himself to get used to the intrusion. He let out an involuntary gasp into the dewy night air, his hand tightening its hold against Law's when he was fully seated. Law rubbed his side, then down, grasping Usopp's hip as their fingers squeezed together. "Breathe," he commanded and Usopp felt an explicable calm fall over him as his body complied with the command.

Usopp shifted, and slowly began to move, circling his hips instead of moving up and down. Law's hips grounded upwards, causing the younger male to gasp and squeeze his eyes shut. He blindly reached down and grabbed Law's other hand, holding both tightly in his before pushing them so that they lay beside Law's head. Law slipped out of him slightly, so Usopp experimented with the new position, pushing down to fully sheath Law. He shivered, unable to handle how much bigger Law felt in this new position.

Law shifted, then thrust up, and Usopp allowed himself to be lost in the sensations as he rocked down to meet his movements. He gave Law a few bounces, then ground his ass down. He sighed, blood rushing through his veins at the feel of Law's hands squeezing his tighter. Law dropped his left hand and moved it to Usopp's cock and closed around it. He looked at Usopp in question, and Usopp nodded, huffing a vague, "please" before the surgeon began to stroke him.

Law's eyes locked on his and the feel of the man's hand on his cock sent Usopp spiralling faster than he had thought possible. It was all too much- too overwhelmingly there, and pushed him off the deep end in seconds, with no warning, leaving him with nothing to do but ride it out, whimpering and shivering helplessly as he spilt against their chests.

Law pulled Usopp off and him against his hips, slowly stroking his body as he allowed him to come down from his high.

Usopp reached down to stroke Law's cock and lightly pressed his lips everywhere he could reach- his cheeks, his nose, his lips, his forehead. He slowly kissed the slope of his jaw, lightly biting where it met his neck. He kissed the notch of his adam's apple, rubbed his lips against the curve of the clavicle in front of him. Usopp's lips continued to shower Law's body with attention as he stroked Law fast and hard until he could feel him come, spilling out onto his hand and stomach. Usopp grinned, panting along with him.

Law tipped his head up to Usopp's, a broad smile spread across his face as he laid back and relaxed, rubbing Usopp's back. Usopp sank into the touch, face pressing into Law's chest as he exhaled. I need a shower… I need a nap… I need a round two. I want to do that to him.

He sighed in content as the other's hands traced invisible drawings up and down his back. It was serene, if only for that moment when both their crews were asleep and the world was completely theirs, where he could hold Law close to him. To feel his heartbeat against his cheek, pulsing sweetly under his cheek, his cheeks hurting from smiling too much.

A single thought crossed their minds as they lay there under the stars, their skin cooling in the night air. I'm in trouble.
