This shit's embarrassing

13

Through the next couple of weeks, the meetings between you and Law were still consistent. Even him teaching you how to drive was something you did a few times a week usually after the two of you had hung out. Things were awkward for a few days after the almost kiss, however even though you hoped he would bring up the almost kiss he didn't. He acted normal so you did as well, you weren't going to be the person to bring it up and feel anxious about getting rejected for real this time.

You laid on your bed listening to music from your turntable, while also staring at your ceiling just thinking. Your thoughts were all over the place, driving, volleyball, Robin and obviously him. No matter how hard you tried to take your thoughts away from that night in your driveway you can't help but always come back to it.

You finally had to get up because of a phone call. You got up with a sigh because you were comfortable where you were laying. The caller ID said, 'Lost idiot' and just like that you knew who it was and you picked up.

"Heyyyyyyyy (y/n)" You heard the person on the other side of the phone say.

"Hey Zoro, why'd you call?"

"Wellllll I totally think you should come to this party I'm at" you suddenly realized he was quite inebriated.

"Really? And how do you suggest I get there?"

"I don't know you should have your license by now woman."

You laughed at this slightly knowing he probably wouldn't remember this. "Why do you even want me to come to the party, you obviously already have friends there"

"Well, is it so bad for me to want the person I've been in ---"

Just then you heard a crash like somebody suddenly tackled him to the ground and just as suddenly as that happened the call ended screen shows. You were confused but also at the same time didn't care enough to call back.

--------A few days later

"You're getting pretty good; I think it's time for you to schedule an appointment for your license."

"Good enough to not get screamed at by the DMV lady because I ran into a mailbox?" You asked partially joking.

"You've managed to not hit any mailboxes, so I'd say at this point your pretty safe." he commented with a small smile.

"What a compliment" you said not trying to hide your sarcastic tone. He laughed as you two switched sides so he could drive you home once more.

"But seriously you've done really well, you should at least make an attempt."

"Alright, I'll do it" you responded putting your hands up in defeat. "But if I don't pass and get screamed at you owe me for the embarrassment"

"Really? And how about if you pass you owe me something then?"

"What that means you get the better end of the deal; I want to pass." you said laughing at him

"I taught you everything, consider it repayment for me teaching you the last couple weeks."

"Fine I guess." You said with a heavy sigh.

Not long after the comfortable silence set in Law was pulling onto your road and slowly approaching your home. You were slightly disappointed by this, you really enjoyed hanging out with him. Even if it was just as friends.

He pulled in your driveway, you said your goodbyes and went inside your home, locking the door behind you. Following through on your word you grab your laptop and start looking up the local DMV.

A phone call later with a very annoyed lady you had a driver's test for later in the week. And all you had to do was tell your dad.

-----

You and your dad were now in his car as he was driving you to your test.

"I'm glad you finally decided to learn to drive, frankly it's something you should have learned a while ago." He said breaking the silence.

"I guess, I just want to get this over with though."

Your father laughed at your comment, "So a little off topic but who was the boy you went out with the other day?"

You face turned slightly red. "Well, it's a guy from school. But it wasn't a date or anything, we just hung out."

"Mhm" he said skeptically. You rolled your eyes at this. He continued, "Look (y/n) I'm sorry I work so much, I know I'm not around for you all the time, but I want you to be able to trust me. So, if you and this guy or any guy for that matter I want you to tell me and I want to meet him."

"I can do that dad" you responded.

-------

The road test went surprisingly well, you passed, maybe not with flying colors but you passed none the less. And your dad let you drive home, granted you almost clipped a trash can, but that was the trash cans fault for being nearly in the road.

When you got home you and your father were celebrating when he got a call.
"Sorry (y/n) there's an emergency"

"Yeah I get it" you said with a sigh.

And just like that he was out the door once again.
———
You did some basic cleaning around the house and some homework when you realized you forgot to tell anyone about your new license.

You were excited, you had your license and now you were getting ice cream. It almost sounded like a date. But it couldn't be right? Law didn't like you like that?
