Some time has passed since you stepped foot on the Heart Pirates submarine. You'd fallen into somewhat of a normal routine, helping out wherever you could. After that first meal you'd taken it upon yourself to prepare the crew's meals.

Flash back:

"I may not be the best, but at least my food is decent!" You'd explained when Kouzo had appeared. You hadn't been able to sleep, so you'd decided to get an early start on the day. "French toast! That's what will make me feel better!" You had exclaimed. After searching through the food stocks you realized there was not a single trace of bread. "Fine I guess homemade it is." You grumbled, grabbing the ingredients you'd need.

Kneading the dough had given you a great outlet for the stress and anger you'd gathered over the last few days. "Look, all I'm saying is no one is gonna want to eat this!" Kouzo yelled. When he'd shown up you'd begun to cut your fresh bread for the toast. "Who doesn't love French toast? It's delicious!" You retorted. The ex chef stormed out of the room, muttering about you being a stupid girl.

"Wow! This is amazing (y/n). I've never tasted anything like it!" Penguin exclaimed as he dug into another helping. The entire crew was happily digging in, including Kouzo. There was only one person who refused to touch your food. "You should really eat before it's gone." You stuffed a slice of the French toast in your mouth as you approached Law. He gave you a bit of a death glare, before turning away from you. "That is disgusting. I won't eat it." He grumbled. "How would you know if you won't even try it? You're acting like a spoiled little brat. Who doesn't love French toast?!" His insult had hit hard. Sure it wasn't as good as your moms, but Mipops had never complained. "I don't like bread!" The raven haired man snapped as he faced you. A slight blush had crossed his face when he realized what he had done.

"Fine I'll make you something else ya big baby." You sighed heading back into the kitchen.

End flashback:

You were busy making omelettes when the captain poked his nose into the kitchen. You still didn't understand his apparent hatred for bread, but did your best to not make it the centerpiece of every meal, though the thought had crossed your mind every time he did his little 'Tch' thing. "Don't worry, there's no bread today. You can relax." You sighed as you dished up another omelette. The crew sat happily in the other room waiting for food. "Good. Keep that revolting shit off my ship." The captain grumbled at you. He seemed extra tired this morning, the bags under his striking eyes darker than normal. You handed him a cup of fresh coffee before returning to work. "The crew seems to enjoy it. You know you don't have to eat it." You we're trying hard not to let his grumpiness bring you down. Today was a big day, the sub was gonna surface for the first time. You couldn't wait to feel the fresh air. Bepo was the only one who related to your hatred of heat.

"Fuuuck me! That feels amazing!" You screamed as the cool ocean breeze brushed your shoulders. Bepo laid sprawled out on deck behind you. You stretched out your upper body and took in as much fresh air as you could fit in your lungs. You proceeded to bend all the way forward as you stretched out your lower back. You spotted a few members of the crew checking out your ass through the gap in your legs. "Take a picture, it lasts longer" you snapped.

When you stood back up a News Coo landed on the railing of the yellow submarine. "Thank you." You smiled as you paid for a paper. Flipping through the pages you flopped onto the deck, leaning up against Bepo. Your blood froze in your veins as you read, "Fire Fist Ace set to be excited in 4 days. A live broadcast will be available on Sabaody Archipelago." Your head started to spin a little as the news about your brother settled in. "I have to go." You mumbled, trying to formulate how to get into Navy HQ.

"(Y/N)? Are you ok?" The bear asked. Concern painted his fuzzy white features. "Do you not feel good? I can get Captain." The bear began to shift from his sploot. "N-no. It's fine." You bit back the tears that filled your eyes. "Are you sure? Is there anything I can get you? You look pale." Bepos little black eyes locked with yours as he placed his paw on your forehead, like he was checking for a fever. "Some water would be nice." You croaked.

Bepo nodded and headed off to get you some water. You stared at the black letters, unsure of what emotion to feel. The paper said Blackbeard had handed Ace over to gain a spot in the 7 warlords. When you'd run into Ace a few months ago he'd told you he was looking for Blackbeard. He had to deal out a punishment for Teach's traitorous actions. He'd promised you he'd be fine. Now there was a chance of losing a 2nd brother. Plus you still didn't know what had happened to Luffy. And you knew he'd do something stupid when he learned the news.

I have to save him. Luffy and I can't bear to lose another. Sabo was already too much to handle.

"There she is captain!" Bepos worried voice snapped you back to reality. Law bent down a bit, taking your face in his hand, moving it left and right. This isn't what you meant when you'd asked the bear to get you some water (teehee).
"She is rather pale. Take her to my office I'll check her over." Law ordered as he headed back into the sub. Bepo threw you over his shoulder and followed the raven haired man inside. "Bepo! I'm not sick!" You cried as you struggled to get free.
-
Law sat backwards on his chair as he gave you a check up. No one had listened to you when you said you didn't need medical attention. "I told you I'm fine." Your voice was still shaky and your color paler than normal. "And that's a lie. You're in shock." The doctor said, running a hand through his messy hair. "Now the question is what happened." His silver eyes locked with yours as he handed you something to help calm you and a glass of water. "Can you get me into Marineford?" You ignored his question.

"Depends."

"I need to go. They're going to kill my brother. And I have to try to stop it." You started fighting off tears once more. "If I don't I know my idiotic little brother will do something stupid. Luffy..." tears started to pour down your face. "L-Luffy will do whatever it takes. And I c-could lose them both." You found law's gaze once more, vision blurred by the stream of tears that filled your eyes. "Please help me Law. Please."
"Fine..."

Law surprised you when he sat on the bed next to you and held you as you cried.
-

You were scheduled to arrive right before the planned execution time. In order to distract yourself from the worry, you busied yourself with making yourself a new set of knives. You still needed to replace your old set you'd when you were kidnapped. Deep down you knew a war was coming. Whitebeard would never let them kill Ace. Ace was one of his sons, and Whitebeard took that shit personally.

That night you couldn't sleep. You'd been tossing and turning for hours. Eventually you admitted defeat to the insomnia. You threw on a pair of sweats Penguin had let you borrow, before heading off to the kitchen for coffee.

You weren't too surprised to see Law wander in as you stirred cream and sugar into the black liquid. "Do you ever sleep?" You sighed, turning to face the Captain. More often than not, the man turned up for 2am coffee. "Tch~ you're one to talk" was the only response he gave as he walked to the coffee pot and poured himself a cup. You hitched your hips up onto the counter as you secretly admired his figure.

The art that covered his body was fully exposed as he faced you in nothing but a baggy pair of sweats. The bags under his eyes were getting especially bad, almost like he had worn a very poor quality eyeliner. His silver eyes eventually caught yours, a smirk spreading across his face. He leaned against the counter opposite of you before saying, "enjoying the view?"  You could feel your face heat up as you shot the dark haired beauty a death glare. "Cocky much?" You muttered, taking another sip of your bean juice.
-
Stupid motherfucker. Think's he's all that. Sure he's hot but good lord looks aren't everything.

You internally grumbled as you marched back to your room. He'd managed to get to you once again, only bringing your crappy mood lower. Huffing out a sigh as you sat at your workstation, you began working once more on your knives. They were almost complete, which gave you a little relief. At least you'd have a proper weapon to fight with. The blades were long with a slight curve at the tip. The handle laid in the middle of a large circle that acted as a hand guard. You added a few minor additions. By the time you finished it was time for work.

You quickly threw on a fresh t-shirt and your heart pirates jumpsuit before heading off to start on breakfast. A few members sat in the dining hall looking exhausted. They'd been up all night making sure the sub stayed it's course. "Sorry boys, it's gonna be a few." You did your best to sound cheery through your mass amounts of stress and sleep deprivation.

While writing this I've learned I'm very bad at writing snarky boys. Especially when I like them. I had to rewrite this because Law was just too much of a sweet boy originally.

Anyways thanks for reading!!
