Hancock's POV

'I'm not sure how you can admit your affections for Luffy but not for someone who actually shows interest' were the words that kept reciting in my head

wise words from Garp, yet he has not been in a sincere relationship before

it's always the people who have never been in a relationship that has a lot to say

i sighed once more as I stared at my ceiling light from my bed.

was what y/n said to me .. a confession..?

of course it was.. I've had countless confessions confessed to me every now and then

but each and one of them never piqued my interest

yet .. i've only loved once and .. that person never returned the 'love' back

I had waited till his little act was over since I believed he was simply playing hard to get, but it turns out... He wasn't interested in me at all.

then came Y/n

i don't know what to feel about her .. I've never had this .. type of feeling with a girl before .. moreso a student of mine

i can't really describe this feeling but .. whenever someone else gets closer to her .. it aggravates me..

i never felt this before, i'm always so considerate about my thoughts but when it comes to her .. i feel so protective of her

like i just want to keep her all to myself .. treat her however I wish I shall

i sighed heavily at how weird my thoughts are of tonight ..

Do I like Y/n .. or do I just like her company?

I fell asleep, trying to forget all the strange thoughts I'd been having.

Finals Day

No matter how late I sleep, i'm always on time the next day

Salome and I have breakfast and went off to the Academy

Honestly, I have no hope for Y/n to ace her finals

Sure, she's intelligent, but I'm pretty sure there's a limit to one's knowledge

I walked into all the Seniors seated in the Cafeteria room, looking stressed — as they should

my eyes searched for Y/n, but she was nowhere to be found.

i sighed, knowing she must have bailed on for today

well.. that's expected

which was even more unexpected wss when y/n finally banged the door open making everyone turn around to stare at her

Behind her back, I could hear people whispering and giggling.

Goodness Y/n! You're distracting the whole students!

"I got lost! Someone told me that the exam would be held at the library, so I went there and found no one! " she exclaimed from across the room

I hurriedly walked towards her and pulled her outside

"You did not have to yell that across the room
Y/n. How dumb can you get?" I say, flicking her forehead

"Sorry," she tittered, scratching her head.

"Normally, I wouldn't let students in whom are late for their Finals," I groaned, "but in your case... I'll let this slide."

Y/n smiled with relief.
