It has been two weeks now since you managed to get the oh-so-cold doctor, Trafalgar Law, to blush. You admittedly feel a slight tint of guilt, it isn't like you were toying with his emotions. You do think he's a good looking man. You didn't lie or hurt him, or at least you don't think you did. Since that encounter he's been avoiding you as if you were acid. Which isn't all that fun for you. Luckily, you have other things to occupy your time with. Shachi and Penguin let you play cards with them, although you suck. And you had become really good friends with Bepo, he even cuddles you if you're cold so that his fur warms you up.

Maybe I should apologize to Law, he has helped me out a lot and if I really did hurt his feelings, it would be rude and quite frankly, uncalled for...

You let out a quiet groan as you roll out of bed, making your way to the door. "Who knew an asshole like him could be so sensitive." You mutter irritably, you don't particularly like apologizing, especially when it's been so long. Like two weeks. Upon opening the door, you almost squeal at the sudden figure standing outside. Your eyes adjusting almost instantly, realizing it was just Penguin.

"Jeez! Don't creep up on me like that!" 

"[f/n]! Were you speaking to somebody?" Penguin asks, trying to peek around you, to what he must assume is a second person. You barely manage tuck away your embarrassment, your [e/c] orbs trailing from left to right slowly.

  "Just myself...I have a tendency to do that. What do you want anyway?" Trying to change this awkward subject before it even begins, you stretch out trying to insinuate that you have only just woken up and haven't been awake for hours but just deciding to stay in bed, thinking about apologizing to Law.

"I came to tell you breakfast is ready!" Penguin turns, rushing toward the kitchen. It's like he's excited for breakfast today, beginning to wonder why, you start making up all sorts of scenarios in your mind, following behind him. Entering the kitchen, you blink in astonishment, everyone is in here together, everyone. Penguin, Shachi, Bepo, Jean Bart, some of the other crew you hadn't been introduced to properly since they're always so busy, and even Law himself sat at the table. Already digging into his food. This was a rare sight to see, you can now understand why Penguin was so excited about it.

You immediately feel your stomach drop from anxiety, the only free chair. The chair Shachi is signalling you to sit at is in between Jean Bart and Law, opposite Penguin and Shachi. This is not how you had planned to apology. You mentally force yourself to walk over to the chair, timidly pulling it out from under the table and sitting down onto it, your body still tensed up. This feels like those times when you were a child sneaking around in the night to get some food or drink and every single noise you made sounded like a chainsaw massacre.

"Help yourself to some food, [f/n]!" Shachi beamed, picking up some bacon with the tongs and throwing it onto his plate. You feel both Jean Bart and Law peek at you from each side, most likely wondering why you're being so reluctant to eat anything. You loosen yourself up a bit, enough to start picking out your food anyway. A smile starts to grow on your face. Though it was quickly destroyed as you put down the tongs after picking up some preferred food but then decide you want some more bacon, so reaching for the tongs again just as Law's reaching for them at same time causes your hands to brush together.

OH COME ON, REALLY!? WHY! WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS TORMENT?!

You pull (more like whip) your hand away, gesturing that the tongs are all his for the taking. Hell, screw the bacon, it's not worth it! You rub your temple with your index and middle finger. You just know you're acting like a damn highshool girl, swooning over her crush who doesn't even notice her. Time to stop being that highschool girl! You're unwinding right now! You look up, your face now stern and ready. However you only look up to see Shachi and Penguin with wide grins on their faces, their eyes traveling from you to Law, then back to you, then back to Law.
