Luffy threw his shirt onto his bed and dug around in his drawers for pajama pants. He heard Law leaving. Leaving with his girlfriend.  Bonney or whatever he said her name was. Luffy didn't care. But Luffy hated her. He didn't know why she made him so angry but he couldn't get over it. Once Luffy changed into more comfortable clothes, he plopped onto his bed and pulled the covers around him. It was too early for Luffy to sleep yet but he didn't want to be up when Law came back. 

Luffy's head hit the pillow and he wasn't out for another hour or two. The only people he heard were Ace and Sabo in the living room. Neither one of them seemed to find it odd that Luffy went to bed so early. Luffy avoided getting onto his phone. He didn't want to scroll through any app only to see a picture of Law and his girlfriend. 

It took hours, but Luffy got to sleep eventually. He woke up the next morning and dragged himself out of bed to get ready for school. Still, Law was at the front of his mind, even when he went to Zoro's and on the car ride to school.

Oddly enough, Luffy and Zoro were the first ones to reach their table in the cafeteria. After Luffy got a tray, he plopped down in his seat next to Zoro and ate. 

"What the hell is going on?" Zoro muttered, yawning when he was done speaking. 

"Huh?" Luffy said with his mouth full. Zoro rolled his eyes. 

"You've been acting weird all morning, what's up?" Zoro asked.

"Uh?" Had he been that obvious? 

"What's on your mind?" Zoro asked, knowing full well Luffy was to caught up in his own thoughts to even realize something was actually bothering him half the time. 

"I guess Torao," Luffy admitted. That was a start. "He let me drive Sabo's car last night and his girlfriend called him while we were driving." 

"Hm," Zoro watched Luffy for a moment. He couldn't see why Luffy would be bothered by that— unless...

Luffy talked about Law a lot, more than he talked about his brothers even. Then it all clicked, and Zoro smirked. 

"You've got a thing for Law, eh?" Zoro asked. Luffy looked at Zoro confused. 

"You like him, like like him," Zoro clarified. 

"Wha— No!" Luffy stammered. 

"You do, I can tell Luf," Zoro continued. He leaned back a bit, unable to keep the smug grin off his lips. "That's why the girlfriend thing is bothering you." 

"I don't know what you're talking about," Luffy huffed. Zoro rolled his eyes. Luffy had found plenty of people attractive, Zoro knew that all too well, but Zoro hadn't seen Luffy like someone.  

"Oh c'mon," Zoro huffed, he really wasn't gunna let Luffy be that oblivious. "Why else would you be upset over the guy having a girlfriend? It's the only thing that makes sense." 

Luffy mulled over Zoro's words before coming to the conclusion that Zoro was crazy. Luffy would know if he liked Law, it was that simple. Law just won't be able to teach him to drive because he'd be too busy with Bonney. Yeah, that's why Luffy was annoyed.

"You're weird," Luffy said just as he noticed Usopp come into the cafeteria. 

Zoro shook his head, Luffy will figure it out soon enough.  Usopp dropped his bag onto the table and looked at Luffy with a frown.
