The Message ~ Law X Reader

4

       'It's still silent.... I've been through this town three times tonight... Nothing... Not even a trace of you... Where are you Cora-San?...' The message came to an end and you frown looking at the phone.

"Hey... You okay cuz?" Kid yawns making you look up.

"Yeah, what are you doing up?" You ask sitting up.

"I can't sleep for Shit... I was gonna take a walk but I saw your light was on..." He comes over and falls onto your bed. "You like it here.... Right?" He asks.

"I've only been here a day Kid, I haven't had enough time to decide." You point out.

"Right... It's just been a while since we hung out and I can't read you like I used to." He murmurs. You smile thoughtfully.

"I could never read you to begin with. You're crazy." You muse. He chuckles lightly.

"What was that song we used to sing when we were kids? When we got lost in the woods?" He asks. You chuckle and lay down like he was.

"Hmm.... ~We are lost~ lost~ lost~ We have no food~ food~ food~ Night is coming~ coming~ coming~" You start to sing quietly. Kid smiles and joins in.

"~But that is fine~ I have my favorite cousin~ And if anything comes hunting~~~ We'll cook it up~ up~ up~ and eat it for dinner~.." You both chuckle lightly and drift off to sleep.

You were woken by Kid shaking you lightly. "Hey come on, get ready for school." He breathes.

"School?" You echo sleepily.

"Yeah you're coming with me." He says bluntly. You yawn and sit up as he goes out. You get dressed, grab the phone and head out.

"I don't wanna go to school." You grumble wandering into the kitchen. He tosses a muffin at you.

"No complaining, let's go." He rumbles. You grumble and follow him out sleepily.

"Morning," Killer greets, leaning on a blue and white motorcycle.

"Yo." Kid waves to him before uncovering his black and red motorcycle.

"I don't want to..." You murmur eyeing the motorcycle.

"___. Cuz. Get on the bike." Kid says calmly. You shift and get on the bike facing backwards. He gets on and starts his bike, you lean back against his back. You grumpily eat your muffin, earning a chuckle from Killer.

"Good morning to you too." He chuckles.

"I'll eat your hand next." You grumble. He blinks in surprise.

"Easy Killer, she gets mean if she's woken up before she's ready." Kid chuckles.

"I'll kill you." You warn Kid.

"I see the family resemblance now..." Killer sweatdrops.

"Don't worry about it. She only growls like a monster." Kid laughs.

"I'll eat your arm." You growl. Kid laughs riding away with you. Killer swallows.

"Scary girl..." He breathes riding after you and Kid.

"I don't wanna." You grumble again, glaring at him. Kid chuckles.

"Take it and go wander-"

"Eustas. You haven't been at school in a week." A voice that has become so familiar it made you glance to your phone, but you pause realizing it didn't come from there. Kid growls lowly and you follow his gaze to Trafalgar Law. You blink, it couldn't be. That voice that you've been listening to every night... Was his!?

"Aw have you been keeping tabs on me Trafalgar?" He taunts.

"No. I noticed how peaceful school has been is all." Law responds cool. That was definitely the voice. A blush comes to your cheeks as his gaze drifts to you. "Have you found a girlfriend outside of town--"

"She's my cousin bastard." Kid snarls taking a step toward him.

"Kid." You say calmly and he stops.

"But cuz-"

"He was just mistaken, no need to fight." You turn away. He blinks and looks back at you.

"Yeah you're right, come on, I'll show ya around cuz." He chuckles guiding you out. You glance back at Law who had a brow raised at you.

"Hey cuz, you okay? You've been quiet since we ditched Law." He comments peering back at you. You blink back.

"It's nothing." You hum rubbing your cheek. He blinks and shrugs.

"Well at least you aren't grumpy any more." He says.

"Right." You murmur looking around.

Trafalgar Law, the voice from the messages, the class president. He surely wasn't the type to fool around and make up stories. Just who was he really?
