#212 “We could run away.” 😭😭😭
“Y’lookin at me like I'm already gone.”
Tears cloud over your vision as he sits on his cot in front of you, a shell of the man he used to be. His eyes are sunken, bloodshot. He’s grown out his beard to hide the gauntness of his cheeks.
You cannot help the escape of those tears down your cheeks, hiccuping a sob as you stare at the ground. He reaches over and takes your hand in his, pulling you closer to him, gently, slowly, like he was trying to calm a skittish horse.
“C’mere, darlin’.” He guides to sit upon his thigh, winding one arm behind your back as the other one clamps affectionally on your thigh, “There we go… ain't nothin’ to be cryin’ about.”
You frown and lean your forehead against his, a fresh outpouring of tears cascading down your cheeks, as your breathing hastens against his express wishes.
“You’re too pretty to be cryin’ like this.” Arthur swipes his thumb across the your cheek to stem the flow of tears, but you swat his hand away before steeling your nerves and leaning in to take his lips.
Arthur frowns, pulling your hips back to prevent you from kissing him.
“You know we can't.” He quietly pleads, his voice pained.
“Its like you're h-half gone already.” You whisper, hiccuping halfway through the sentence, angry and sad and drowning in reality at the same time.
“I’m right here, darlin’.”
“Let’s go - just, let’s leave-”
He frowns. You press onward, desperately.
“We - we could run away. Let me take you out west where it's dry and -”
“You know we can't do that, sweetheart.” Arthur cuts you off quietly, tucking a strand of hair behind your ear affectionately.
The dimple in your chin forms again as your lip quivers, a long breath let out of your nose as he smiles sadly at you.
He draws you in, one hand on the back of your head, shushing you gently as your voice cracks into another sob.
“You’re gonna go on and keep livin’, sweet girl.”
“Not without y-you-”
“Without me. Yer gonna grow into a crotchety old woman and join me years from now.” You can feel his smile against your cheek, and as much as you try not to, you cannot help but laugh at the comment.
“I love you. How am I ever gonna go on without you?”
“You’re a strong girl. Smart. Much smarter than a ol’ dolt like me. You’ll be fine.” Arthur gently rocks you back and forth on his knee, comforting even now as he and you know his time is growing short.
You bury your face into his neck.
This wasn’t supposed to be happening. You were supposed to be doing jobs. Maybe breaking out on your own. Riding across the country. Maybe settling down somewhere hidden when this life finally paid out.
But now…
Your tears fall on the warm skin of his neck, and he gathers you into his embrace, murmuring sweet nothings in your ear, trying to comfort you.
You know you shouldn’t waste this time.
It’s all you have left.
Navigator’s Concern
Pairing: Luffy D. Monkey/Female Reader
Summary: The seas of the Grand Line roared a peaceful melody and expressed a salty aroma. The Thousand Sunny rocked back and forth. The sun shone like destiny declared, and the clouds were clear to expose the skies' mature beauty. The day was young and admirable. And youthful admiration encased you as of recently, Nami noticed. Nami found herself often observing you out of curiosity. The more she observed you, the more questions arose. You, her little sister, didn’t desire to spend much time with her anymore. Alongside that concern, was how both your interests were no longer as aligned, and the cause in this relationship shift was you and Luffy’s recently announced commitment to one another. Your relationship was a surprise for everyone, but an even harder one to accept for Nami.

The seas of the Grand Line roared a peaceful melody and expressed a salty aroma. The Thousand Sunny rocked back and forth as if it was a mere child’s toy--a child's wonderland. The sun shone like destiny told it too, and the clouds were clear to expose the skies deeply mature beauty. The early noon was young and admirable. And youthful admiration encased you as of recently, Nami noticed. Nami found herself often observing you out of curiosity. The more she observed you, the more questions arose. Your eyes glowed brighter than they did under any sun or moon, neither of the two being the cause. In the beginning of the change of waves, Nami didn’t think too much of your shift of behavior or the glimmer in your eyes.
Nami was just happy that you were still happy despite being so far from home. When you declared that you wanted to leave the East Blue with Nami and her crew, she argued with you. She hadn’t wanted you to be a pirate, to live that risky lifestyle. But she was convinced by Nojiko to allow you to join the Strawhats voyage, and explore the expanded seas you were clouded from your entire lives under the rule of Arlong.
Nami admittedly didn’t want to notice any changes. She didn’t want to get worked up. However, she slowly did grow to have this feeling of worry for you, and the sea did not soothe her anxiety. She was buried in concern for you as she faintly watched from the corner of her eye, Luffy, you, and Usopp play tag on the grass deck below. Sunbeams glisten off her naked skin and sweat drenched down as she bathes in the rays of sunlight from above, fashionably wearing a jewel abused one piece swimsuit she had never worn till now. She remembers wanting to buy you both a set when you were shopping together a while ago.
You were distracted the entire time, and she could tell you weren't enjoying yourself like she anticipated. Now, that’s something she did notice quickly and bugged her mind for seemingly a millennium. You, her little sister, didn’t rapidly desire to spend time with her anymore. Alongside that concern, was how both your interests were no longer as aligned, and the cause in this relationship shift was you and Luffy’s recently announced commitment to one another.
Your relationship was a surprise for everyone, but an even harder one for her to come to accept. Not only was she surprised, almost everyone in the Strawhat crew was shocked entirely. No one noticed a romantic feeling flourish between the two of you. Well, it was expected to not notice any romantic feeling from Luffy but from you to Luffy? Now that was surprising. However, with time Nami realized that she did notice these signs. How your gaze would linger on Luffy a second longer. How worried and wearing your tone got whenever he was to do one of his common shenanigans. Hell, Nami even noticed Luffy shift in behavior towards you. It was very minor, and almost unnoticeable but she saw it.
She noticed how Luffy would ease you differently than he would any other crewmate. Rubbing your head, lowering his tone so softly that his words were only for you to hear. She always knew but didn't want to fully accept that her captain, her admittedly dumbass captain, would be dating her beloved sister who could do no wrong. To be perfectly honest, she wouldn’t say she wanted you to date anyone a part of the crew. Nami loves her crewmates, she really does but imagining them romantically being romantically involved with you discomforted her. You dating her friends nerved her. Nami just thought you deserved…a prince.
Nami’s midnight eyes widen, and her attention falls fully on you as you trip, and before she could jump up to run to catch you, like she always did as children; Luffy was there to catch you in his arms instead. He held you, arms wrapped around your waist as you leaned over him, clutching his shoulder. Nami squinted her eyes as the sun shone aggressively. The sun, though angered, shone on the two of you also. As if you both were on a stage and the only ones performing. Her eyes wandered more onto your flustered face, flustered because of Luffy. “Luffy-kun,” you whispered. Luffy seemingly didn’t catch your shy expression despite his eyes being no more than a inch away from your face. He boastingly laughs. “You’re so clumsy!” Your eyes narrowed as you stood up straight, removing your hands from Luffy's shoulders. “Y-Your one to talk, Luffy!” You frowned. Usopp agrees with you. “Honestly Luffy,” he muttered.
You had always wished, as a kid, to marry a prince, Nami remembered. Her, Nojiko and Bellemere always used to tease little ole you whenever you stated you wanted to marry a prince. But now that you’re at that age of dating, she couldn’t understand why you would choose Luffy. Despite being only a year older then you she has always been…mentally more mature than you. Mature on a different level. Mostly, because she had too, for you and her island. Nami herself would admit that she has a certain fondness for her captain, a friendly fondness. However, no matter who she will always be soft for her younger sister, and will always choose you then any of her crewmates. She continued to watch you and the two guys play tag, lost in her thoughts. Nostalgia drowned her eyes. When Bellemere was killed and Arlong took over the island you called home, she wished for your prince to come save you from the morbid nightmare you were forced to live. But Nami couldn’t wait for wishes. She had to be that prince to save everyone.
And here you all are. Together and free. She liked it. Despite all her worry about Luffy influencing you she was relieved that even through all the pain and sorrow you had to go through. That you were still able to smile, and love. She knows if Nojiko was here she would be just as happy for their little sister. Luffy was nowhere near a prince or gentleman, but she knew, based on the glow in your eyes, that he was your knight in shining armor. That you would give anything to be with him, even if all the princes in the world desired you, you would choose him. And with Luffy, he would fight every prince, every pirate, and every sea folk to have you in his arms, to have your embrace easily like he does now.
The island you all were traveling to was in sight, the log-post pointing straight, and before any of you knew it, you were anchored for another adventure. You and Usopp were the first to exit the ship, quickly like children on Christmas morning. Your eyes were plastered with wonder at the monstrous animals that seemed to fear you and Usopp. However, Usopp's face was more terrified than the six feet bear you chased to hug. Usopp soon ran to help on your pursuit to the goal to hug the huge bear that ran from you, once realizing that the foreign animal saw you both as higher, stronger beings. Luffy went to follow after the two of you, brushing Nami’s shoulder as she and Robin began exiting the ship. “Wait for me, Y/n!” He shouted down, a whine in the back of his throat.
Before he could make his escape to cause more trouble than you already were, Nami grabbed the back of his shirt hastily “Luffy… if Y/n comes back with a single scratch… consider your life done,” she threatened. Robin giggled at the threat and made her swift exit. Luffy, as always, was not intimated nor did he spare a glance. His eyes were absorbed on you, watching you and Usopp attempt to tame the foreign beast that ran from the two of you. Your smile that seemed to bloom, and your laughs from the distance shivered him in a melody. Nami noticed his expression, his expression of love for you, and it eased her sweating mind. Luffy laughed as you trip on your footing, making the monstrous beast fall. “Mhm! She’ll be fine with me!” He shouted his response to Nami, before running off the ship after you, forcing her to let go of his shirt.
Her hands shook. She stared at the sight of you and Luffy conquering the beast. Smiles as big as the sun and endearment piercing your eyes at the sight of one another. Nami’s hands that shook like a fidgety flame came to a stop, and she rubbed them in comfort. Like a sudden breeze, she subtly smiled at the sight of you two. She couldn’t lie and say you guys didn’t look cute together, Luffy was just a magnet for dangerous situations and she knew that. And of course that worried her. But she knows from the bottom of her heart that he’ll always keep you safe. He may not be the prince you always desired, and you may not be the treasured One Piece Luffy’s desires for, but you both still found each other as the riches of your dreams.
