You look around the empty house, frowning lightly. 'Where are they?' You wonder sitting down, Law had gone home leaving you alone. Yo rub your neck, attention being drawn to the bracelet Law had given you. You toy with it for a bit before a knock sounds on your door. You go and open it blinking at Zoro who instantly pulls off the bracelet. You blink at him and step forward, opening your mouth to scold him until the being beside him catches your gaze.
"Ace?" You breathe. He smiles, tail swishing before hugging you.
"Finally, you can see us again." He murmurs. You blink utterly confused.
"What are you talking about? Didn't you guys just leave?" You ask. He pulls back shaking his head as he ushers you in with Zoro. .
"That bracelet shields the holder from seeing or hearing the supernatural." Ace tells you as Zoro puts it on the table.
"So that's what Law meant by it would protect me.... But... How would he know...?" You murmur troubled.
"Well... Sabo said there's a chance that the close call that demon Law spawned from also gave him the ability to see," Ace tells you. You shift and rub your cheek.
"He thought you guys might harm me..." You murmur.
"Actually... I don't think that's it ___," Zoro says. You look at him as he shifts. "When I was coming back from a competition I saw him and your uncle talking at a diner outside of town." He informs you. You feel the blood leave your face.
"No... That can't be.." You murmur feeling a pit in your stomach. "There's no way that was him..."
"The one who saw you and Law- demon Law back at the mansion... But why would he do that to a part of himself?" Zoro frowns.
"There's no way he could've known, humans can't see their counterparts, it appears blurry and dark." Sabo says standing near the window. You look back at him.
"Why is he with them?" You ask him feeling sicker.
"I'm sorry, I can't tell you that." Sabo murmurs. You frown deeply and drop your gaze, feeling the tears return to your eyes.
"I've missed him so much.... What do I do?" You whisper. Zoro pulls you into a tight hug nuzzling your hair like he had the day you lost demon Law.
"There must be more to it ___.... I don't think he would intentionally hurt you... Not when he looks at you the same way the demon did when you weren't looking..." He murmurs quietly. You sniffle hugging him.
"You think so?" You breathe. He nods into your hair.
"We'll figure this out, maybe Law needs saving." He says softly. You pull back and he wipes your tears away gently. He smiles a bit, watching your (e/c) orbs ignite with a familiar fire. "There... I've missed that so much.." he whispers.
"Are you gonna kiss her or not?" Kuina pipes up, making you both blush and pull away. Kuina pouts, "Awe.... So close..."
"Kuina! I thought I told you to watch Law..." Zoro huffs.
"Oh yeah... He's about to be here." Kuina hums and you both pale.
"Movie!" You both gasp rushing around getting a movie on and popcorn, sitting down just as the door bell rings. The supernatural beings swiftly hiding as well. You swallow and put on the bracelet before going to the door and opening it to see Law.
"Hey Law! We just put in a movie!" I greet welcoming him in. Law blinks at Zoro, pausing as he glances around.
"Just the two of you?" He murmurs. You nod and close the door behind him before going to sit down near Zoro. Law carefully sits on the other side of you. You start to watch the movie, Law glancing over every so often, slowly and carefully beginning to pull you closer to him, holding you gently. You blink after a while and glance down, starting to blush as Law cuddles up to you more. The gesture was so familiar you almost giggle.
Zoro glances over and smiles a bit as you nuzzle Law's hair. The movie comes to an end and Zoro gets up, stretching. "Thanks for the movie ___," He breathes.
"Heading out Zoro?" You guess getting up as well. He nods and you walk him to the door. "I'll see you tomorrow," You tell him.
"Yeah," He says hugging you. "Call me if you need me." He murmurs. You hug him back.
"I will," You smile pulling back. He smiles touching your cheek briefly before opening the door.
"Take care of her Law." He adds going out and closing the door.
"You two are close." Law comments when you turn back to him.
"Yeah, he's my best friend..." You hum smiling as you go over to him. He blinks and smiles softly, moving some hair behind your ear.
"That's good." He breathes. "It's good to have people you can trust." He comments turning away.
"Can I trust you?" The question left your lips before you could stop yourself. Law freezes, shoulders drooping.
"I understand if you don't... But I assure you ___, you really can." He turns back to you cupping your cheek. "I care about you."
You blush meeting his gaze and relaxing. "I... I care about you too..." You breathe. He smiles and kisses your forehead.
"It's getting late, mind if I stay the night?" He asks. You blush and shift.
"Sure I don't mind," You smile with a slight shrug. He hums smiling as well.
"I'll take the couch." He breathes.
"Actually we have a guest room, come on." You tell him leading him to the room next to yours and opening the door. "I think someone used to live with us and that's why we have the extra bed and stuff..." You tell him looking at the black and yellow bed spread.Law didn't move at first, looking at the room before him.
"You think...?" He echoes carefully easing in.
"Yeah... I can't remember much from before my dad died. And when I ask my mom she kind of changes the subject." You murmur with a frown.
"I see... Well thank you ___," He breathes not looking at you as his fingers glide over the blanket.
"Any time Law... Can I get you anything?" You ask.
"No thanks. See you in the morning." He gives you a smile.
"Alright, good night Law." You smile before closing the door and going to your room.
Law looks to the door before going to the closet and opening it taking a out an old box and setting it on his bed. He let's out a heavy breath before opening the box and pulling out a stuffed polar bear with brown spots on half of it. He swallows feeling over the spots and wincing, dropping it back into the box sitting back on the floor and touching under his heart.
"___..."
