A/N: AU? Lawlu, first One piece fanfic. Terrible. I do go fast sometimes so if you want a quick fic to read then by all means go! I also have a habit of using the same transitions and words so watch out. If you tell me I'm going too fast I'm very aware of that. :( I just really needed to write down some Lawlu!
Life on the Thousand sunny was never exactly easy. If you find any of the Strawhats saying that they're lying obviously, same goes for anyone who has ventured through the small ship. Wether it was for personal reasons, or to join the crew. Which, normally, the captain would invite you, if you asked then he would probably just say yes no matter how you looked or possibly even behaved? As long as you do not have bad intentions for someone the captain cares about, consider yourself safe. That man is a monster. With a kind heart that is. Never puts the label 'hero' on himself, just Pirate King. He has yet to achieve that however.
Luffy, captain of the Strawhats, was now currently fishing with the other members, Chopper & Usopp. He had a large trademark smile on his face. He urged a stranger on the boat to come fish with him.
"Traffy! Come on! Lets have fun please!" He whined loudly. Law somehow found him in a predicament where he was stuck on the Thousand Sunny for a couple of weeks? Months? Years? No, no, no.
'Just a few weeks and we'll reach an island.' He dragged a finger on his tattoos. 'But then again...Anything could happen on this ship.' He let his nail dig into his skin. 'Anything.' Lately, the poor Surgeon of Death has been experiencing some odd feelings of pleasure from the ride to the next island. Feelings of comfort. He had the same feelings from being in his own crew of course, but why on this ship is he getting the same tingly feeling?
"Traffy..." The younger man groaned adjusting his fishing pole to point away from Law. He frowned playfully scrunching his nose is a cute manner. "Come on..."
"Not now M-" He was cut off.
"Call me Luffy. I already told you that."
"...Luffy-ya...You have the rest of your crew to fish with." Law shut the book he was reading a moment ago to stand and leave to see what the rest of the crew was doing.
"Yeah but I want you Traffy...!" Luffy clenched his hands tightly grinning wildly. Law flinched.
"No." Law said simply entering the inside of the ship. He trotted away from the crazed adult to the library to see only one person. He wasn't surprised no, he expected Robin to be there. She was, reading a history book, too far from Law's own eyes to see. Only the brown book with a big orange juice stain on the cover. She looked up and locked eyes with the captain.
"Are you having fun?" She smirked putting a hand to her lips to mute her giggling. She flipped a page and opened her mouth to read part of a paragraph. "The Native Americans had yet to realize the way of the modern people. Which lead to their isolation from outside sources." She shut her book with a slam and pushed in her squeaky seat. She hummed an amused tune. "I'll have to ask Franky to fix that up. There is quite a few medical books on the top shelf if you're wondering." She murmured. Again, another reason why Law had problems socializing with the Strawhats. He understood what she meant alright but ah, did she do it in a creepy way.
"Traffy...!" Luffy came through the door groaning, hand still gripping a fishing pole. It had been cracked in half too, considering Luffy's monstrous strength. "Let's go fish! Please! Why are you cooped up in the ol boring place."
"To hide from you. I believed that you wouldn't dare step in a library. As usual, I assumed wrong." Law huffed annoyed. Luffy made a face.
"Sometimes I go in here." Luffy stretched his way to a seat beside the table Law was sitting at currently.
"Do you now?" Law fiddled with a book about diseases in his hand. He had a look of curiosity. He also took note of the selection about books as well.
"Yeah, to look for some funny pictures in them. Like that one." He picked up the orange juice stained book and put his nose in it in a comedic style. After a few page flippings he landed on a page near the end. "This Indian has a big nose."
"So does Long nose-ya. Plus, they're called Native Americans." Law hummed
"Yeah, but this guy's nose looks way funnier." Luffy flipped to another 'Indian'. "Check out the funny face she has." Law frowned.
"Luffy-ya, she's crying. Her husband has been killed."
"Oh." Luffy mouthed embarrassed. "I was just skimming so I didn't read the caption. "
"It's alright I guess, it's not you really offended her." Law leaned in to look at the page. Her story in the book had been smeared with chocolate pudding that was now beginning to disgust the Hearts pirate captain. "I bet you used this book didn't you." He narrowed his eyes to read the words on the page more clearly. He felt Luffy's eyes on him. "It says that her family got attacked by several unknown people which lead to some kind of war..." More reading. "And that she ended being killed as well...She got buried with her husband when it all ended."
"Ahhh, Traffy you're so cool! Could you read some books to me? Nami sometimes tries to help me read books but she's really bad at it." Luffy pumped his fists in the air. The truth was, he just didn't want to learn, he just thought Law would be a better teacher, Nami did her best in trying, even persuaded Robin to help during their 'lessons'.
"I'm not so sure...If she couldn't do it then I obviously can't."
"Please!" Luffy whined loudly.
"We'll see."
A/N: This developed into reading about Native Americans. Which makes no sense since like, pirates? Whatever , I think I'll call this story study buddies. Shitty story yes, good work no. I tried making one before but it was so clique. I mean, this is clique but atleast this is not a slight rip off of other Lawlu fics. All the good ones have been taken. No lemons, because I can't right lemons to save my life. Hope you like?
