One Piece high (one piece Various X Reader)

Chapter 21

Shanks took you to his floor,which was right below Mihawks and showed you around drinking a beer casually offering you some as well.

"Um Haha no thanks" you rejected with an awkward laugh making the red head grin at your nervousness.

"Oh loosen up Y/n,your even more tense with me than you were with Doflamingo" Shanks remarked playfully opening what you assumed was the study door as he walked into room filled with shelves and books with a big desk in the middle.

"Hmm" you hummed instead of answering, remembering the serious expression Shanks had a while before
Which made you slightly more nervous.

"Come sit down" Shanks called sitting down behind the desk in his large chair while mentioning you to sit on the other side.

Giving a nod, you quickly walked and sat down on the chair facing shanks looking at the things on his Desk.
You could see a few empty bottles laying below the desk too, making you chuckle.

Shanks hearing you, faced up from the papers he was reading and looked at you with a raised brow.
"What's so funny?" He asked genuinely curious.

"Oh ah you drink quite a lot huh?" You remarked playfully hoping to not sound rude with a nervous smile.

"Oh so you saw the bottles huh" Shanks realized from your words and sheepishly rubbed the back of his head giving you a grin back.

"Yeah.." you trailed off confirming him and picking up two empty bottles bright below the table near you chair.

Placing the bottles on top of the table,
Shanks immediately became even more sheepish sliding them to the left end of the table.

"I forgot to throw them out" He told you good heartedly and ended up blabbering others topics to distract your and his own mind from the beer bottles.

You went along talking with him about other stuff even if you didn't want to because hey who could deny the famous red head and ended up having a long weird talk which surprisingly the both of you weren't bothered about.

"A lot of us couldn't believe that Zero would be the one to send Everyone flying into the air,It took us months to find out who was the one behind everyone suddenly floating and even though hes a cry baby,Hes a good kid and didn't even know that he had devil fruit powers" You told him about your cute crybaby at home with soft eyes feeling nostalgic.

On the other side Shanks seems to feel nostalgic too listining with a grin and soft eyes like you,Remembering his time with Luffy, those where some great memories for him even though he lost his arm...

Snapping himself out of his flashback with a lot of blinks,Shanks apologized to you for Daydreaming.

Waving him off with a laugh,you asked about his past making him freeze from taking a sip of his beer.

"I heard you used to be friends with luffy since childhood,how was your life than?" You asked with curiosity

"how do you know that missy?"
He couter-asked a playful glare on his face.

"Someone told me" you mysteriously told causing the man to look at you in question again before giving in. He told you bits of his past along with everything about luffy and how he lost his arm,he ended up telling you a bit about how Luffy got his devil fruit too.

All through out the conversation it was mostly shanks talking and you occasionally asking questions.

"Brave of you Shanks saving luffy like a hero" playfully praising him,you earned an eyeroll from the older male.

"Yeah yeah " he weaved your words off casually patting your head for the first time. "Oh wow" He exclaimed suprised at the softness of your hair immediately leaning down towards you as he stood up patting your hair much more aggressively.
"So soft~" He remarked with a soft I'm going to heaven face as he kept on ruffling your hair.
