Starting from death - Law x Reader

Chapter 28

"Come on, (Y/N). Groom yourself a little more," Esther whined once again.

"I'm telling you I don't feel like it. Let's go already," you retorted.

"Law, lend me a hand, please." She turned to Law, looking for help.

He quickly glanced at you. "I think she looks pretty," he admitted in honesty.

"Awww... Law, you're so adorable," she fawned, quickly poking his nose.

Law glared at the tip of his nose as she did, his eyebrows frowning in displeasure.

"Of course she does, but she can look absolutely gorgeous if she just puts a bit more of effort. At least put on some make up," she insisted turning back to you.

"You heard him. I'm okay. Besides, removing make up is a pain in the ass, I want to go straight to bed when we return," you firmly stated crossing your arms.

"Do you hear her?" Esther questioned Law, pointing to you in aggravation. "Show a bit more of enthusiasm! It's our first night out with Law. You should be excited!" She turned to you again.

"And I am. I just don't feel like wearing make up," you replied.

Esther sighed in defeat. She just wanted you to look as beautiful as possible for Law. After all, she planned on getting you to be together that night. But you were too stubborn. "Okay, okay. Let's go."

You went on Esther's car. She promised she didn't plan on drinking that night, but you weren't too worried about that because you knew she could be responsible if she wanted and in the worst case, you could drive back, since you never drank.

You sat with Law on the back seat. "What nightclub is going to be this time? Am I going to lose my hearing too?" you asked a bit worried. You hated those noisy places. You appreciated your ears, and those places damaged them.

"No, don't worry. I chose a simpler one this time. It's pretty big but not as oppressive as the last one. The music is loud but not that much. You will like it," she promised, her gaze fixed on the road. "And I hope Law will like it too," she added looking at him through the rear mirror.

Law caught her wink and knew this actually had something to do with her plan.

"Hmmm..." you suddenly hummed in approval. "It smells nice here," you commented sniffing the air. "I think it's you, Law," you pointed out.

Law tensed when you stuck your nose in his neck to smell him.

"It's you! What cologne did you use?"

"I don't remember the name," he replied quietly, turning to the window to hide his blush from you.

"You smell really nice. It suits you," you complimented.

"Thanks," he muttered.

Esther's giggles filled the car.

"What is so funny?" you naively asked.

"Nothing," she simply said, still amused.

When you entered the club, Law took some time to observe everything around him. It wasn't completely stuffed, but it still was pretty crowded in his opinion. Some kind of repetitive music played loudly all over the place, and flashes of colored lights illuminated the otherwise dark room. He understood why you weren't too enthusiastic about going there; it wasn't your style.

"Let's go to the bar!" Esther cheered, rising her voice so you could hear her.

"I though you weren't going to drink?" you intervened.
