A/N: I wrote this for the tumblr Lunami week, so I figured I'd share it on here. My self-challenge was to write a quick piece.

First Kiss

After a long night of drinking and laughing, our crew began to trickle down to their respective rooms. Luffy stayed behind, for he had look-out duty. I stayed with him and claimed to not trust him enough to stay awake.

We sat together - closer than two friends would yet inches further than two lovers might have. I had not witnessed many couples, but I assumed they would touch hands. We barely touched shoulders.

Although I could not feel the alcohol in my blood, I gained a surge of courage from an unknown source. Amidst our banter, I crept my hand closer to his. When I punched his shoulder, my knuckles kneaded his rubbery skin for seconds longer than the norm. Then, when we descended into a rare silence, I lowered my head to his side.

I could hear his heartbeat quicken, and mine followed suit. Quickly, I sat up and slid away from him on the deck. "I didn't think Usopp could have tricked Chopper into thinking that spider web was cotton candy, but maybe he loses common sense when he's around something he wants," I mentioned with a laugh.

He stared at me when I said "something he wants."

I needed to go to sleep! If I didn't, I'd say something stupid. "I think I should go to bed," I said and attempted to escape until Luffy grabbed my hand.

"If you're sleepy, then you can just stay out here with me and sleep, right, Nami?"

His eager grin beamed over at me as he leaned forward to anticipate my next word. I sighed, "Fine," and plopped down next to him at an amicable distance.

He frowned and slid closer to me. "It's warmer if we sit like this."

I reflected his frown and nodded. What was I doing? What was I thinking?! I leaned in for a kiss until our lips met. Pulling away, I crossed my arms across my chest and averted my attention to the sky.

"I like fish, but it's not my favorite kind of meat," Luffy noted as he must have referred to our seafood dinner from earlier that evening.

I buried my face into my knees and sighed for the tenth time that night. My face burned and my heart ached. He must not have known what a kiss was, or else he would have some kind of reaction! Instead, he carried on like nothing happened. So then, I would, too.

"Anything Sanji cooks is good though, right?" I giggled with a grin.

Luffy swept in to kiss me by sliding his arm behind my waist and pulling me closer to him until our bodies touched. He tilted his head to the side as if to savor the taste of my mouth with a deeper kiss, and I followed his lead by enjoying the lasting moment for myself.

Moments passed before he pulled away from our breathtaking adventure. "That was fun," he grinned. "We can do that again?"

Slowly, I nodded and tried to straighten my hair and regain my composure. "Yeah," I panted. Should I explain to him what it meant? Maybe he'd go around doing that to strangers if I didn't talk to him about it!

"That was kissing, right, Nami? Did you like it?"

I chuckled, "Yeah, but you can't kiss everybody, alright? There's a lot I have to teach you about this."

A/N: I have 2 chapters for other stories on back log, but! I might write for my Naruto fanfic Maternal Sonata.
