Review Responses.

shaeril mcbrown - yes it is sweet indeed.

luffy x robin 4ever - this story is a "what if" scenario basically, with the obvious pairing.

ken kaneki - me too.

the almighty cross - yeah when I was watching the anime I really wanted Robin and Luffy to have some intimate(not what you're thinking!) interactions. They make such a good couple since they are both complementary to each other.

mr vorhes - yeah I like this story too

random reader - eh I'm not sure if this is going to proceed into the canon I'm more interested in the pairing itself. besides, I prefer pretimeskip robin she has a certain "mature woman" image to her that got lost later on.

Okay before I get massacred by the reviews let me clarify something. I just want to say that the characters are old enough to do some kind of adult stuff they just don't show it cause it's a kids show. Also please tell me how OOC Luffy is.

...

Luffy sat down in a chair at a reading table as he arrived to the library with Robin. Robin sat right next to him amd took out a clean textbook.

"Can I take a look at your hat?" Robin asked.

"Eh? Uh...I trust you, so I guess why not?" Luffy said, visibly a bit worried about giving the hat to Robin.

As Robin put on the straw hat, she suddenly sensed a subtle change of balance in their interactions.

"Let's start with the alphabet..."

"I know the alphabet!" Luffy excitedly exclaimed.

"Okay then, write all the letters down."

Luffy tried to and failed.

"Uh...I know the letter L? I think my name starts with it."

Luffy could swear he used to know the alphabet but it had been so long since Makino taught him and he told that to Robin.

"Well then, let's warm-up."

Robin stood up right near Luffy so that her hips were next to Luffy's head as he was sitting and writing down the letters of the alphabet. She was biting on the rear tip of the pencil in her hands.

She subtly gave it a quick ambiguous lick to see whether Luffy would notice but he didn't.

Robin put a book in front of Luffy with all the letters displayed page by page as she read the letters out loud as he wrote them down.

A...B...C...

...D

...E...F...G..

...

S...

"The letter S stands for the word...shoulders."

Robin said as she put her hands on Luffy's shoulders standing behind him, starting up with an innocent friendly massage.

"Yeah, that's nice." Luffy said.

Robin proceeded to massage Luffy's shoulders when suddenly he said-

"Enough."

"Hm? What's the matter? You don't like it?"

"It's d-distracting me."

"My hands are off." Robin quickly put her hands behind her back being dressed in her "school uniform outfit".

Robin caught a faint falter in Luffy's voice so she stood at his side to check something.

(Just as I thought.)

A bright blush decorated Luffy's cheeks as he was painstakingly writing out the letter S over and over again too anxious to face Robin.

"Hmph." Robin said with a barely noticeable grin as her eyes sparkled.

T...U...V...

W...

"Whew!" I'm exhausted...Maybe we should take a snack break-

"No. I'd think not. 3 more letters to go."

"But Robin!-"

"When we're in the classroom, that would be Robin-sensei to you." Robin said in a firm assertive voice.

"Sorry...Robin-sensei..."Luffy grinned at her.

"Much better." Robin said as she patted Luffy's hair.

X...Y...Z...

"Done!" Luffy exclaimed happily as he leaned back on the chair.

"By the way, I really like how you drew the letter W. It stands for the word...woman. What do you think about women?" Robin asked.

Robin sat next to Luffy.

A suspicious silence suspended in the air.

"Robin... Stop beating around the bush." Luffy looked at Robin with a serious expression.

"This whole teacher thing is just an excuse to get close to me in..in..b-bed, right?"

Robin never saw Luffy so anxious. She, on the other hand, was calm as a cucumber.

"Well, according to the crew, you have no idea about that kind of stuff. You know, sexual stuff." Robin said leaning back onto the chair and putting her stocking-clad legs onto the table, showing them off, giving the pencil tip in her hands a thorough lick as Luffy gulped.

Luffy stood up, too nervous by having Robin sitting in such a pose so close to him but he didn't go far, just shifted a bit.

"I'm 17 years old. I may be a carefree person and simple-hearted but I'm not stupid."

"Then tell me all about it." Robin baited Luffy mercilessly staring into his eyes while still sitting in the chair legs on table.

Their eyes clashed as they stared at one another until Luffy blushed up in 10 seconds and lowered his eyes.

"Okay I guess. Well, I always knew about that kind of stuff as I grew up. I'd have occasional ...dreams of Makino and sometimes Nami in the mornings where they would..you know...be naked and-"

"And?" Robin inquired as she stood up, crossed her arms and looked at Luffy.

"I think you know what I mean. You know, it's actually good to have a person who is so grown up so I can talk about this kind of stuff. Anyways, I never pursued women because I prefer adventures! I just haven't really met any girls who'd really be able to understand me either. Really, that's all there is to it. I know some people claim I'm asexual or whatever but that's just ridiculous. But I am aware of the ...basics."

"Why didn't you get on with Nami then?" Robin asked both of them sitting back in the chairs.

"Well, in case you didn't know, Nami and Zolo are... uh...well, they call it "fuckbuddies". But that's just an excuse for them to keep it simple, I think they have some hidden romance going on but Zolo would not admit it and Nami well of course she wouldn't. Although they keep it secret lowkey so I'm the only one who knows. They are my very first companions after all. Yeah I remember spying on them and watching them do their thing until Zolo asked me not do that because it made Nami embarrassed that somebody was watching them..ehhh...Should I really be talking about this? Ah, whatever. Also when Vivi was on the ship they - Zolo, Nami and Vivi - would have threesomes. Usopp has a girl at his home village waiting for him, and Sanji, well he's a weirdo around girls but - hey, who am I to judge."

Luffy was surprised how easy it was to have someone to talk about this kind of stuff. Robin emitted some sort of maturity that made Luffy comfortable with talking, also it forced him to give actually serious answers whereas with other people he'd just turn the conversation into a joke, he really wasn't used to this.

"I actually thought you were gay at some point." Robin smirked.

"NO!" Luffy laughed.

"Maybe a good partner could ...open you up to the idea."

"Hahaha...I'd rather not." Luffy was enjoying this conversation really way more than he should have. Finally he met a grown up person on this ship who could understand him.

"Have you ever had sex?" Robin curiously asked.

"No. Listen, Robin... I think I know what you're getting at, but I don't want to rush. I'm a serious person at heart so I don't want a woman if she's not gonna be there to support me in the future...Do you know what I mean?"

Luffy was unusually serious.

"Yeah, I guess. So what do you say, Luffy, how about we start dating? Oh, come on, don't overthink it, I'll show you how fun it can be..." Robin was putting psychological pressure onto Luffy.

"...I-" Luffy was about to say something but Robin put a finger on his mouth.

"Shh. Enough lessons for today. We both need to think this over. How about we meet up in my room after dinner this evening to talk this over?"

"Sure. Okay then, until evening."

Luffy and Robin both left the library and went in opposite ways before Luffy turned around and said-

"Oh, and just so you know, I already had an idea of what you wanted since yesterday...you were just so stunning so I was too shy to show it. No, really, you're the first woman I ever met that gets it."

"Tch. A compliment." Robin smiled and dryly coughed as they both went minding each their own business.
