Straw hat || Luffy × Reader

Chapter 15

"remember when you said you like zoro"

Cough, SHIT.

"eh uhm-that uhh you see about that-"

HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN. SHIT SHIT SHIT.

"Y/n?", he said questioning, you died a little inside, "yeah luffy?"

This is so embarassing.

"you.... Like me more though right?"

"huh", you didn't even know what to expect but it wasn't that.

You were dumbfounded by the awkward smile on his face, is that a pink shade on his cheeks?! No, luffy is too innocent for that. He probably doesn't mean anything by it.

"of course", you finally break the silence, your head still on his shoulder, you wanted to see his reaction but your face was an embarrassingly red shade by now,  you knew it was dumb but you felt like you just confessed  to him.

"Ok", it was a short response but you could feel the excitement in the response, it made you even redder somehow.

He walked with you in his arms silently, It wasn't awkward, it was a comfortable silence like there was nothing that needed to be said after that. You wanted this moment to last forever no matter how cliché it sounded.

You took everything in around you, making sure to have it as a picture in you memory, the way strands of his pitch black hair moved ever so slightly in the the breeze, the fabric of his red slip on shirt was surprisingly soft, he smelt like sand and a hint of meat.

Still a bit dazed even after he put you down gently onto the dining room chair, surprisingly nobody was in the room. You were still alone with him.

"sanji isn't here?", luffy's head drooped onto the table with a depressed frown on his face, you try to hide your smile at the adorable sight.

"let me check the fridge-", you got up but stumbled a bit, catching yourself just before you fell over by grabbing the chair, luffy jolts up with a worried expression.

You scoff at the clumsy action, trying to lighten the mood, luffy chuckles a bit as he walks over to you and sits you back down with a little pressure.

"I'll get it", he hops to the fridge with a huge smile on his face, you rest your head in your arms at his little wiggle as he raided the fridge, sanji is going to be so mad you thought to yourself with a smile.

It's fine, I'll just say I wanted food. Which isn't really a lie.

"I FOUND MEAT", He holds up a huge piece of meat with stars in his eyes, you chuckle at the accomplished expression on his face.

He skipped over to you,"there's only one piece", luffy frowns again, "I'll just-", you start but he cuts you off.

"let's share", he smiles and sits down, you look at him wide eyed, your eyes the size of golf balls, luffy just said he'll share his meat....

You blink in amazement,"here", he holds the piece to your face, you smile and take a huge bite,"that was a small bite", he frowned, you couldn't say anything because your mouth was full, he takes a stretchy bite,"mhhm ITS SO GOOD", he shouts in satisfaction, you laugh but choke,

Cough!, "I thought I was going to die", you say when the meat finally went down your throat, luffy laughed, you laughed too.

This is nice, you thought to yourself several times as you both laughed over something dumb you'd both do.

It was probably past midnight, and you could see luffy drifting in and out of sleep and you could feel yourself doing the same.

"hmm y/n", was the last thing you heard before sleep took away your consciousness, a smile still tracing your lips.
