Just Us [Franky×Robin FanFic] Short Story

Chapter 2

A month ago:

"Hey, Robin! Have you thought of a new book to publish?" Nami asked. I was working on some books about life and death sci-fi, but now I can't seem to think of a new concept.

"Not yet, I can't find inspiration. Can you help me?" I asked her. Nami's eyes lit up and sat down beside me, "How about-" I think I got a glimpse of her thoughts "Let me guess, Money and Love?" I remarked.

"Wha-?! I was just going to suggest Love, not money." She pouted, I looked at her and giggled "I'm not that crazy about money you know," she said.

"Yeah, you almost killed the guy that mistakenly took your money. You're not that crazy. Not at all." I said sarcastically.

"Hey that guy was a thief, and besides, Luffy took it back for me." She said. I giggled at her "Anyways, a bit of a romance genre isn't such a bad idea for your next book." She continued.

"I would, but I don't really have much of experience. It's more of a 'Sanji' thing." I said. She laughed and gave me a book.

"Here, try reading this," she pointed at the title 'Finding the word Love' "This should give you an idea, and maybe, maybe you'll find out your love interest." She said and smiled "Well, I'm off! Gotta make more money." She waved goodbye at me and I did the same.

Hmm, this looks interesting. The first few pages were not that bad, I should finish this.

"Miss Robin," someone knocked on my door "Come in" I said. The door opened and it was my maid, she bowed down and said "You have a guest ma'am"

A guest? "Who?" I asked.

"Sir Franky, miss." She said.

I stood up and walked at the lounge, I saw Franky drinking cola and eating cookies. "Franky? What brings you here?" I asked.

"Well," he paused and took a big gulp on his cola "I was thinking of hanging out. Maybe a beer or two? I asked the others but they were busy. But I thought of you and came here." He said "You're not busy, are you?"

"No, not really." I said "I was reading a book," I giggled.

"Yeah, figured. So, you wanna hang?" He asked smiling at me.

"Yeah, as long as you pay the bill." I said

"Sure. But you owe me one." He said and laughed.

We both headed out. We used his car and got to the bar. He opened the door for me as usual, he's a gentleman although a bit weird. But I like him that way.

"So, Luffy skipped and Zoro too? Why?" I asked him. Luffy never skips on eating, especially Zoro. I wonder.

"Uhh Luffy has a date with Boa." He said. Oh right, he's with Hancock. I'm sure he's having tons of meat right now. "And Zoro's training, Hiyori was with him. Chopper is suuuper young to be at a bar, Brook is busy with his concert and Jinbei is fixing the yacht, Ussop is with his girl back in his village, and Nami is working, Sanji I can't even ask the guy, he's busy simping on Nami." He ranted. I laughed.

"Well, that's a shame." I said while laughing. "Good thing I wasn't busy."

"Yeah," he drank his cola, and time passed by. We talked about things and I got drunk. He was drinking cola so I was the only one drunk.

"Slow down, Robin." He said. "I-I've been meaning to tell you this for a very long time." My head is starting to hurt. I shouldn't have drank so much. Ugh.

"Tell me what?" I can barely keep up with what Franky is saying.

"I li--"
