I hesitated for a second, my clima tact was in my room and surely they had hear me creaking to the room if I went and got it ... what do I do? I froze in my place feeling helpless . Not even few seconds later, I see a big ball-looking messy man with food stuffed in his mouth, of course.. how couldn't I realize that the only person who would be messing in the kitchen so late in the night would be Luffy.
''Luffy?! what are you doing here? WERE YOU TRYING TO STEAL FOOD AGAIN?!! URGHH I KEEP TELLING SANJI-KUN TO LOCK THE FRIDGE!'' I exclaimed. ''shishishi sorry Nami! I was super hungry since I hadn't eaten anything for a few hours'' he says giving me the cutest grin I have ever seen, I sigh in relieve because at least he wasn't an intruder. I quickly rise up as I realize that I am still sitting on the figure head but before I could, Luffy who somehow lost all the weight and looked back normal again rushed up the figurehead's stairs to sit besides me. I am shocked, Luffy isn't mad that I am on his ''beloved seat''. ''so you aren't mad?'' I jokingly said, he replied saying while looking me with his dollish grey eyes straight into my honey eyes "Yeah I don't like people sitting her but if its you Nami, that's fine" I went silent, then a breeze of air passes by messing up my orange silky hair. I could feel my body temperature rise , I couldn't contain myself, he then approaches his hand towards me and fixes my hair, running his hand through my orange hair. When did Luffy become like this? Is what Robin said actually true? Does Luffy share the same feelings as me? all these questions flooded my head as he pulled his hand away slowly and crossed his arms on his chest.
I then bent my knees putting them close to my chest and covered my face with my hands. I look like a tomato! This is so embarrassing I thought, Luffy probably thinks I am a weirdo! He who was staring at me shocked at my reaction, smiles and looks back into the sea. He too seemed troubled with thoughts. ''You know I feel like we are closer to achieving our goals'' Luffy said, I then get a grip and look at him in confusion while his face is looking straight out to the seas. '' why are u saying this now, luffy?'' I mutter, He then says ''Its just a hunch shishishi.'' (''Kakashi reference'') I couldn't help but laugh, being in his presence made me happy, being by his side made me feel... excited. I wanted to make a move, I wanted to try to make him understand how I feel without having to explain it verbally...
I moved a few inches closer to him, he looked at me clearly noticing that I am moving closer but he didn't seem to mind.
Once I was sitting close to him, his hip brushing my waist, I shifted my head on his shoulder carefully, since he was still bruised up from the fight with Kaido. Luffy looked surprised.. he didn't move a muscle but rather his eyes widened a bit he then he locked his eyes on my resting face and his eyes soften and I could see him smile a little . I close my eyes and then I fall asleep next to him.
The next morning
I wake up to the sounds of people laughing and playing on the deck of the ship, I slowly rise up from a comfortable mattress, I was back on my bed..? I first spotted Robin besides me reading a book peacefully. I ask her ''Robin.. what happened and what are these loud noises?'' , robin then looked at me and told me ''The noises are momo, otama, and the rest of the crew, everybody is up and healthy so otama and momo visited, plus... Luffy-san carried you here Nami so it seems you have some explaining to do'' She chuckled clearly meaning what happened last night between me and Luffy.
I put my right hand on my head scratching it trying to remember what happened last night, only to be struck with all the fluttering moments that occurred between me and Luffy, my face gets visibly red, and I say to myself that Luffy probably thinks I am weird, I felt so embarrassed. ''oh I see..'' Robin laughs generously.
She then quickly adds on to her teasing by saying ''How did it feel Nami?'', I waited a bit and then I looked her straight in the face & responded saying '' It felt.... Heaven-sent''
