One Piece: Law and Disorder-Blood is Thick

Delirium

Law felt a weight leaning on him from his right and looked over to see Usui fast asleep. He glanced at the clock. It was only four in the afternoon.

“Oi, Usui. Don’t use people as pillows,” Law shoved the kid lightly with his arm.

“Hm…?” Usui sat up and rubbed his eyes. “Is it time to eat?”

“No,” Law answered flatly. “You’re still dreaming. Soon, the dancing candy canes and elves are going to take you away to a wonderland of fantasy rubbish.”

Usui scrunched up his face in uncertainty, still half asleep. “You’re messing with me, Law no Aniki.”

“You don’t say,” Law turned a page in his book. “I came back after a month away and the first thing you do is fall asleep.”

Usui pouted. “And the first thing you do is read a boring medical book.”

“It’s not boring—“

“Haven’t you read that one already?” Usui asked coolly. “It’s probably your sixth time rereading it.”

“Ano gaki…” Law growled.

Usui yawned and curled up on the bench they were sitting on. Law gave up with an irritable sigh and went back to his book.

The next few days, Law found himself running around the Don Quixote headquarters. Usui would disappear and he’d find him sleeping in a washer that was about to be turned on, or sleeping on a patch of grass on the lawn that was about to be run over by a roaring lawnmower.

If that wasn’t enough for Law’s poor heart to burst from anxiety attacks, Usui had begun sleep walking. Law had to save the little brat from falling off the ledge of the headquarters grounds, he had to swoop in to keep him from losing his head in the obstacle course that nobody uses.

It had been one of those stomach jumping to his throat moments when he found Usui hobbling over to Baby Five’s room. Usui had let himself in and Law jumped in to catch him when he saw that the girl was stark naked. They stared in silence for a second before Baby 5 shrieked like a banshee and kicked Law across the face and out the door.

“Hentai!” Baby 5 blushed, grabbing a towel to wrap around her.

Law pinched his bleeding nose shut and stuttered for the first time in his life. “N-no! It’s not what it looks like!”

She huffed and the door slammed in his face. Law let out a breath of indignation and glared down at the little boy that was sleeping soundly in his arms.

“Walked in while she was heading to the bath?”

Law’s head snapped up to see Doflamingo leaning against the wall with an amused expression plastered on his face.

“Didn’t know you had the guts to do that, Law,” Doflamingo sneered. “Especially in front of your kid brother.”

"Fuck off, I didn't do it on purpose. "

Law glared at the warlord as Usui stirred. The little boy yawned and looked up at his brother.

“Law no Aniki…?”

Law had a tick mark throbbing on his forehead and he lifted Usui up by his shirt and removed him from his lap, tossing him to the side. He stood and strolled away. Usui caught up to him, dancing around his feet.

“Law no Aniki?”

“Don’t talk to me. I’m rethinking my life.”

“Why?”

“Because I don’t think my body can take this amount of stress.”

“Why’re you stressed?”
