part 2

pretty tame and sfw, mainly just fluff
the bass thumped through the walls of sunny’s, the party house of choice, making the floors vibrate under your heels as you leaned against the kitchen counter, sipping on a too-sweet drink that nami had handed you. the place was alive with energy, laughter, and wild conversations filled every corner. various familiar faces from campus were littered throughout, drinking, dancing, and letting loose.
nami and robin stood beside you, both looking effortlessly gorgeous as they surveyed the room. nami nudged you with her elbow.
“so, who are you taking home tonight, hmm?”
you rolled your eyes, sipping your drink. “i’m just here to have fun.”
robin smirked. “you never try to flirt with anyone at these things. it’s suspicious.”
“i flirt,” you defended weakly.
“no, you don’t,” nami shot back. “you’re almost as bad as law over there.”
your drink catches in your throat for only a second, not going unnoticed under robin’s watch. “w-what do you mean by that?”
she gestured toward the other side of the room, where law stood with shachi, penguin, and bepo, trying (and failing) to brush off the advances of a girl pressing herself way too close to him. his usual scowl deepened as he took a subtle step back, arms crossed in irritation.
the girl twirled a strand of hair between her fingers, leaning in.
“you know, law, you always act like you’re not interested, but i bet you’re just waiting for someone to make the first move.”
law exhaled sharply through his nose. “i’m really not interested.”
“are you sure?” she pouted, pressing her hand against his arm. “i could change your mind.”
shachi and penguin exchanged amused glances, barely holding back their laughter. penguin elbowed him.
“c’mon, man, she’s shooting her shot. you never take anyone up on their offer.”
law shot them both a glare before answering back to her. “i said i’m not interested. not in you, not in anyone”
“whatever, jerk!” she spits before storming off.
bepo tilted his head bringing the conversation back, “if all of that is true, then why do you keep looking over there?”
law stiffened immediately. “i’m not-”
shachi smirked, following his gaze, landing directly on you. “ohhh, i get it now. you’ve been watching her all night.”
penguin chuckled. “damn, he’s so obvious too, and it took us this long to see it.”
law tensed, turning away. “shut up.”
robin tilted her head. “he really doesn’t seem interested in anyone, does he?” she said with a suspicious smile.
nami grinned. “maybe he’s just waiting for the right person.”
you hid your smile behind your drink. his unwavering loyalty to you only warmed your cheeks. seeing him get flustered by unwanted attention was undeniably cute. he clearly hated it, and his friends were having a great time teasing him about it.
“you sure you don’t wanna help him out?” robin mused knowingly.
“he’s fine,” you said, though your gaze lingered on him for a moment too long.
meanwhile, law was having his own struggles watching you later in the night. with the way that guys kept coming up to you, leaning in too close, flashing cocky smiles, and trying to charm you, he was doing everything within his power not to cause a scene. his jaw clenched every time he saw you laugh at something they said, even though he knew it wasn’t flirty. it didn’t matter. he hated it.
shachi elbowed him. “man, why don’t you just go for her already? you’re going to grind your teeth down to nothing if you keep sitting here.”
“i said i’m not interested,” law muttered, eyes locked on you as another guy approached.
“ah so you’re doubling down with that one aye?. i’m starting to think you-” penguin trailed off when he suddenly saw law’s whole posture shift.
law was no longer just annoyed. he was seething.
eustass kid had his hand on your wrist, pulling you toward the hallway.
“c’mon, don’t be like that,” kid drawled, his grip firm as he leaned in close. “i’ve seen you avoiding all these other losers all night. that’s fine. i get it. you just needed a real man to step up.”
“i already said no,” you protested, trying to tug away.
kid scoffed. “you’re just playing hard to get. it’s cute, but unnecessary. let’s skip the games and go somewhere private.”
“i’m not playing a game, kid. let go!” your voice was sharp now, frustration bubbling to the surface.
he pulled you closer instead. “why are you being difficult? just one drink, one dance, then we’ll see where the night takes us.”
before you could shove him off, a new voice cut through the noise.
“leave her alone.”
the words were cold, sharp, and final.
kid turned his head, grinning wickedly when he saw law approaching. “you didn’t pay for her, so mind your own business.”
"she's with me."
"first i'm hearing of it," kid teased, leaning back into your personal space, the alcohol on his breath becoming more apparent. “can you believe this loser, babe?”
that was the final straw. before you could blink, law had you hoisted over his shoulder like you weighed nothing, his arm wrapped securely around your thighs, his hand splayed across your ass to keep your short dress from revealing too much. gasps echoed around the room as he stalked toward the door, completely ignoring kid’s protests.
“i said she’s with me,” law repeated, his voice low and dangerous.
you were mortified, but also…thrilled? your heart pounded, and your cheeks burned as law carried you outside.
nami and robin followed close behind, eyes wide in shock.
“um…is she being kidnapped?” nami whispered.
“i don’t think she’s struggling,” robin noted with a small smile.
law set you down on the sidewalk but kept his hands on your waist, holding you firmly in place.
“what the hell were you thinking?” he scolded. “wearing that dress, letting guys get close to you-”
you raised an eyebrow. “are you seriously blaming my dress?”
his lips pressed into a thin line. “you attract the worst kind of attention.”
you couldn’t help but laugh at how insecure he sounded. “you’re jealous.”
his glare deepened. “i’m not jealous.”
you grinned, stepping closer and pulling him in by the collar of his coat. “it’s a cute look on you.”
before he could argue, you pressed a deep kiss to his lips, silencing him. for a second, he froze, caught completely off guard before giving in, pulling you flush against him as he deepened the kiss, his usual composure cracking under the intensity of the moment.
from the window of the house, shachi, penguin, and bepo watched with open mouths.
“no way,” shachi muttered.
“i can’t believe-,” penguin started.
bepo just nodded. “good for him.”
back on the sidewalk, law pulled away just enough to smirk at you. “let’s get out of here.”
before you could respond, he spun you in the air playfully, making you laugh before he grabbed your hand and led you away from the party, leaving behind the stunned crowd, your secret finally exposed.
Law breathed steadily as he splashed water onto his face from the porcelain sink but it did nothing to his reflection, which still looked like shit. But it didn’t really matter to Law right now, he was in Hollywood at a party, everyone is bound to be some level of fucked up here. Including him. Even as he stared into his own eyes and the bags that hung heavy under them, he could still hear the base of the music as it rattled outside, every now and then there would be some kind of base drop and he could hear the sound of the loose metal piping rattle from under the sink. It was loud and there was no escaping the noise of the party no matter how far into the bathroom he tried to slink away into.
Felt like doodling the first scene of my fic I'm writing, might eventually finish and color this :)
Working out some outfit ideas for later in the Fanfic, I always find it easier to draw them out and then I can visualise how to describe them in the chapter they appear in.
Then of course I must draw cat memes… those are just an absolute must.
You searched for him everywhere but his not around. Then you saw Bepo and the others. You go to them and pats on sachi shoulder.
`Hey guys, Have you seen Captain? ´
`Captain? He said he´ll be back in a minute. why? ´
You look at everywhere. Then you turned to them and shacked your head as a ¨Nothing¨. Then you goes outside and have some air. Few minutes later, You feel someone is patting your head. You looked at the back.
`Eh?! Law?! where have your been?! ´
Law sigh and smiles a little. `I cant tell you since that my favourite spot for myself y/n-ya. ´ You looks away and see the sky. He hugged your from the back. `where were you? ´ you asked again. But he didnt answer, he kept on ignoring. Suddenly, You smell something weird.
`Law do you smoke? ´
Then he let go of her so she could look at him.
`No. No i dont. Im not like Black foot-ya. ´
You looked at him because he looked weird. You moved closer to him. He suddenly pushed you and you were shocked.
`Eh? Your not like this Law. ´
`Sigh...Dont call me by my name. Call me Captain y/n-ya. ´
You shacked your head as a no.
`I will call you Captain, if you tell me the truth. ´
He stares at you horribly. Then you hugs him as a sorry and walks away. He carry his katana back and went in to go and have some rest at his own room.
-> The next day ;) <-
At the kitchen...
`Hey, What happened to captain lately? ´ - Sachi!
`yeah he looks weird now days. ´ - Penguin!
`I hope his fine. ´ - Bepo~
`Yeah...Even captain have a secret room that we know but we couldnt tell y/n. ´ - Penguin!
`yeah, i wonder what his doing in there alone when his stress. ´
you just woke up with your messy hair and you goes to the kitchen to take some water. Then you see the 3 of them were talking about something so you goes to them.
`Good morning guys. ´
Then they stopped talking and greets you.
`Good morning y/n. ´
They smiled at you. But you know that they are keeping something behind you. So, you just ignores and takes some water from the freezer and goes to your room. They sigh and talks softly again.
Few hours later Law came back. (he woke up more early idiot-)
`Bepo! Come here! ´
Bepo goes outside to see Law.
`Captain! ´
`Do you say anything? ´
Bepo shakes his head as a no.
`good then. ´
Law walked pass him and goes to your room to see you. He knocked the door twice.
`y/n-ya! ´
You opens the door.
`What is it. Law? ´
He went speechless when you said his name.
`Get out of the room or not you need to clean the whole boat by yourself. ´
You were shocked and start changing as fast as you can. Then you got out and smiles at him. He chuckles and walks away. You sigh and sits on the floor and start thinking.
Mind -> `Why are they acting weird.. I even can smell Law mouth its like cigarette.. I better find out! ´
You stand up and goes out to have some peaceful. 15 minutes later you heard the door open and you didnt notice. 5 seconds later you look at the back and saw someone is walking at the back of the boat. You start to follow ¨that person¨. Then suddenly there is some secret passage down. So you slowly follow him down. Then it was a dark room smells like smoke. You closes your mouth and start coughing. Then you saw a light and goes there. Suddenly the worse part is...
`LAW?! ´
He drops his cigarette with a shocked. Then you shut your mouth.
`How did you know y/n-ya! ´
`I-i followed someone... ´
He sigh and goes to you. He holds your shoulder and leans forward.
`Dont tell them y/n-ya...Or not you clean the whole boat. ´
you nodded your head. He blows the smoke air at your face and you start coughing. He starts laughing(never seen him laugh before but okay-) you sigh and hugs him.
`See. You lie to me. you say you didnt smoke or anything but you did. ´
`Sorry~ i wont do it again~´
`yeah yeah... ´
He hugs you back. you always feel comfortable when your around with him. Then you both look at each other and gives a warm kissed.
`Urgh...Your lips taste disgusting, CAPTAIN. ´
He smiles at you.

Then you pushed him and goes up back. He sigh and follows you up..
