All you could register was Monet's skills first before her beauty. Then, in the middle of battle, as you got up close and personal did you notice a slight skip in your movement. You'd instinctively lean in closer, and when your breasts would touch, visibly you both would flinch and make a snarky remark, claiming that you'd be the victors in this battle, simply to ignore the tension in the air.
"You're getting sloppy," You say with a grin, slicing her shoulder with your blade, and Monet flew back. "Problem?"
Your breaths were sharper, Monet's eyes were hooded, but before love you'd always put your Captain first.
Luffy saved you, after all.
Monet used her powers on you but that was null and void. She was growing tired. "Not at all."
But the longer you fought, the harder it was to keep up with that mantra and as Monet went in for the final blow, so did you and naturally, you won.
But as Monet's knees hit the ground, it didn't feel like you won. You took a step towards her, reaching out, and then reeled in disgust at yourself.
What are you doing? She's an enemy, get back!
"Name," Zoro called out. "Let's go!"
Monet looked at you, blood on her mouth as she grins and sarcastically remarks. "Won't you give me a kiss before you go?"
You pull a face, spin on your heel. "In your dreams, Mo."
Then, you were off, and Monet was still grinning, a small part of her wishing you'll turn back around and hold her.
Regret is all you felt after leaving. Never once have you felt this way about anyone. You were visibly distraught and with your hand to your chest, you shy away from the group to calm yourself.
"What is it?" Zoro asks, and when he spoke, you flinch. "Did your gaydar choose another wrong woman?"
"Fuck off, Zo." You snap, spinning on your heel and lean against the wall. Then, your voice was quiet, and your shoulders sag. "That was wrong of me."
At the voice of your Captain, you look up, and he had a hand full of meat. He bit into it, eyes on you, and you were going to deflect the question but Zoro beat you to it.
"She regrets leaving her girlfriend behind."
You drag out a sigh. Luffy blinked. "You have a girlfriend?"
You scowl. "She's not my girlfriend, Captain, it's Monet. I fought with her, remember? She looks like a bird?"
Luffy blinked once. Twice. Then, "Oh, her!"
"Yes her," You snap. "God, Luffy, what have I done?"
Luffy grinned at you. "You want to save her, right? Then save her."
You straighten. "Seriously?"
Luffy nods. "But you're not allowed to leave my ship. She can join our crew instead!"
"Oi, Luffy," Zoro scolds him, then looks at you, about to open his mouth but you were already running back inside. "Tsk, why's everyone such a pain these days?"
Your shoes clack against the ground as you get near to the location and in your hand was Monet's heart. You had snatched it out of Caesar's grasp so that he wouldn't hurt her, and now it was yours. You wanted to open it up, dissect it and look inside, but that would hurt her even more. So for now you'd settle on saving her.
When she was in your line of sight, you visibly relax, but still keep your guard up.
"Monet," You throw her heart up and down in the air, and at your voice, she looks up, and when you grin she sneers at you. "What? Don't tell me you're blowing the place up."
She was too weak to fight back and you use that to your advantage. You take her hand off the lever and keep your hand in hers.
"Why are you here?" Monet gasped, and when you smile at her, she gulps.
"Can't I be nice for once?" You say, sitting in front of her. "Look, just because we fought that doesn't mean I want you to die."
"You don't get to decide that." Monet snaps.
With such care, you bring her heart to your mouth, and gently kiss it, maintaining eye contact. Monet's breathing grew shallow, and her eyes were watching your every move.
"I have your heart in my hands, Monet. I can decide anything."
"Come with me." You say, voice serious, and she had to laugh. "I'm being serious. What the hell does Doflamingo have to offer you anyway?"
"He saved me. I will not betray the young master."
"First of all, he's vintage wine, why are you all calling him young master? Second of all, you don't owe him a damn thing. If anything, he only has you for your power."
Monet knew that. Everyone in the Donquixote family knew that they were dispensable. Still, it stung to hear.
"Get out," Monet snaps. "Let me die in peace."
You kiss her heart again and she let out a small gasp.
"Stop what?" You grin, her heart still over your mouth, but this time, you use your free hand to pull her into you.
Her body was limp in yours and Monet used your shoulders to steady herself. She gripped at your clothes, and when your hand brushed over her breast, her breathing grew sharper, erratic, but then you place her heart back into her chest and she was confused all over again.
Your hand rests above her breast where her heart was now safely tucked away and out of affection for her, your head lowered; your mouth was over her heart and you kissed it.
Monet's eyes close, her fingers making a home in your hair, and when you kiss up her neck, towards her jawline, she angled her body for yours to mould perfectly against hers.
"Come with me, Monet," You cup her face in your hands. "Please?"
You could hear someone on the line and their voices grew louder and angrier by the minute, but you ignore it and toss the Den Den Mushi far away.
"You can," You whisper. "I'll protect you. So please?"
You wanted to kiss her. God, you wanted to kiss her. But you didn't want to scare her off so you settle on a forehead kiss.
"Monet, please, I'm begging you, please. Stay with me?"
Monet wrapped her arms around you and you let her. You press your face to the crook of her neck, and you both sink against the machine.
You don't mention Luffy, or her joining the Straw Hats, you let her take it one bit at a time.
"The young master won't be happy." Monet whispered. "I've never betrayed him before."
Monet clenched her jaw. "And your Captain?"
"Luffy is the best in the world and I'm not leaving him or the crew, not until he becomes the King of the Pirates. I made a promise that he will see his dream and I will be apart of that journey. However that doesn't mean I'm going to let the affection I have for you be pushed to the side."
Monet grins. "I knew there was something between us when we fought."
"Yeah, Mo, never pinned you to be a titty lady. You couldn't stop staring." You tease her and when she laughed, you laugh with her.
Monet's hand slides across your neck, and down to your chest, her hand over your heart.
You press another kiss to her jawline and she purred like a cat and turned her face to meet yours.
You cup her face in your hands.
Her eyes soften. "You'll protect me?"
Then, to your joy, she nods. "Alright, I'll join you."
You pull her in for the biggest hug ever and when she hisses, you pull back, a thousand apologies on your tongue yet she silenced them all by kissing you.
You kiss back, being sure not to hurt her, and when you pull away, you stand up. Take her hands. Get her on her feet, then carry her in your arms.
"Rest," You press a kiss to her forehead. "I've got you, Mo."
