(Brook "Soul King") the skeleton and the silent pirate

i know, haven't updated since forever but i'm back so yay

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I sat next to brook's standing form as he played his violin and sung one of his many songs, in the light of the setting sun. Occasionally, i'd hum along with him but for the most part, i just leaned against his leg, listening to the sweet sound of music that filled the air. Suddenly a thought came to mind.

"Hey, brook?" the skeleton stopped what he was doing and looked down at me.

"Yes, (y/n)."

"Did you know that you have a really pretty voice?" i looked up at him to see his reaction but i really couldn't tell what he was feeling, due to the dark sockets that he used as eyes. It took a few minutes until he finally answered.

"Why thank you, i appreciate the compliment." I nodded and stood up before pulling him down and kissing his bony cheek then walking over to the edge of the thousand sunny.

I watched (y/n) in confusion as she leaned against the side of the ship and stared at the setting sun. She had always been a calm woman and rarely spoke, so hearing her voice was always a treasure and getting a compliment was ten times better.

For some odd reason, i found her silence attractive and could never speak correctly when she was anywhere near me. Then to top it, even though i knew it was rude, i couldn't help but stare at the young woman with a lovestruck gaze. The shine of her hair and the brightness of her eyes drove me mad, by just glancing at them and the way her (s/c) skin shown in the sun as it peeked from under her (f/c) dress never ceased to faise me.

This lovely lady was a beauty, to say the least but that just made her all the more intimidating, not to mention the fact that she was just about as strong as strawhat.

"Brook darling, you're staring. If you have something to say then say it. I won't bite." then there was her voice, even though she rarely used it, when she did, it was like music to my ears. 'According to her, my voice is pretty but her's is just plain gorgeous.' just then, i felt a hand on my chest and looked down at the (h/c)-ette.

"Brook, you are aware that staring is rude, are you not?"

"I-i'm sorry, i didn't mean to be disrespectful."

"I'll excuse you if you tell me what you were thinking about." she hummed.

"I was thinking about you, dear." i turned away due to my bashfulness but the lovely woman pulled me down by my dark blue cravat and tilted her head slightly.

"You are by far the most odd thing i have ever seen. You have one of the worst pasts in history, you make the stupidest jokes, which by now, i'm sure you're already aware of but despite this, you can still feel happiness and love."

"Pardon?"

"What i'm saying, is that you intrigue me." With those words floating in the air around us, she placed her lips on mine in a slow and passionate kiss, or she would have, if i had any lips! Skull joke! Anyways, after a few seconds, she pulled away and let me go, leaving me stunned.

"Well brook, i am going to go to bed, goodnight love!" Then she disappeared into her sleeping quarters and i began to laugh and jump around happily.

"Yohoho! Yohoho, i'm so happy that my heart could burst..if i had a heart! Skull joke! Yohoho"

(y/n) p.o.v)

I watched in amusement at brook's excited form as he told himself the stupidest jokes and did the silliest dance that i had ever seen.

"You made him happy." i chuckled at robin's comment and turned to face her.

"To be honest, i really wouldn't have cared if he rejected me or acted sourly to my confession, him being happy is nothing but a bonus."

"Blunt as usual but what would else would i expect from you?" said the archaeologist before turning around and continuing to read her book while i got ready for bed.
