She knocked on the door, confused and a little bit worried.
« n- the fuck ?
vi- it's closed ?
n- yeah, but I didn't take my keys ».
She rang the doorbell, and as she was waiting, she noticed there not Bepo's car anymore, but two other cars, and still Kidd's bike. She felt confused as fuck, and the door opened. Law looked at them, innocently,, as they both came in.
« l- yo
n- yo ? Why did you close the door ?
l- yoou told me the pay attention so
n- yeah to keep people's out, not in ? Who's cars are these ?
l- Ace's and Sabo's
n- what ? And why's Kidd's still here
l- I can explain...
n- yeah ?
l- they're playing video games in the living room
n- but... that wasn't.. *sighs*
l- it's fine, not like we got class tomorrow
n- happily...
vi- not like you were went to class anyway
l- you got a point ».
They walked in the living room, Sabo, Ace and Zoro were playing, silently. And Kidd and Luffy were talking, well... Kidd was making fun of Luffy, in a rather nice way.
« kidd- what does Y-E-S spell ?
lu- yes
kidd- what does E-Y-E-S spell ?

ace- OHHHH EYES !!!
lu- oohhh *laughs*
kidd- *burst into laughs*
l- *tired of them but amused* I swear to God
n- and they're not kids ?
vi- ok, they are ».
Zoro heard Nami's voice, so he looked towards her.
« z- finally.. ».
She walked towards him, and sat on the armrest.
« z- one hour
n- no, not hour
z- yes
n- not my fault, and you're having fun
z- lucky you
n- can I know why you guys thought it was okay to live shirtless like that
ace- I'm hot».
He explained, focused on the game.
«n- *kidding* yes you are but it's completely out of topic».
Both Ace and Zoro looked at her, puzzled by her joke.
«n- too soon?
ace- no, no.. just... unexpected
z- you think he's hot?
n- not especially, the joke was just easy
z- sure
ace- this is offending
n- no, we fine, remember
ace-.. yeah.. we fine, so fine
z- fine?
ace- she got quite a bad temper
n- he's a little sensitive
z- oh this...
n- and what's your excuse for exhibiting yourself? not that I don't like that but..
z- lost my t-shirt and our bags are at my aunt's
n- oh damn, we forgot the bags in the hotel room!
z- she got them
n- damn..
z- and I couldn't go home and take one since you took forever
n- I didn't take forever, you're so dramatic
z- we already had that talk
n- well you could take one of Law's
z- you think I fit in Law's shirt? that's cute
ace- *laughs*
n- *shocked and amused* ohh...well good for me»
Luffy saw Vivi coming towards him, and all happy, he said:
«lu- hey Vivi, do you know what E-Y-E-S spells?
vi- eyes
lu- *shocked* how did you find out so fast?!!!»
He crushed in the couch, pouting.
«l- depressing».
It might be the first time Law talked to her, well, he didn't really talked to her but he intervened in a conversation she was having, so she took this opportunity to try to talk to him.
«vi- what were you guys doing?
l- video games».
Why his answers would always be so closed!!
«vi- Nami told me you guys won a music contest
l- *sighs* she talks too much
vi- why? you didn't want people to know
l- not especially
vi- isn't it filmed?
l- yeah but with a bit of chance I'd be gone by the time the show's out
vi- gone? where?
l- to the Grand Line
vi- *shocked* you're a pirate?!?!
l- can't say that yet but that's the plan
vi- I thought you wanted to be a surgeon!
l- yeah, on a pirate ship
vi- oh wow, and when do you leave?
l- January, after Ace's birthday
vi- no way!! that's so soon!
l- and yet Nami convinced me to wait, I'd be gone already otherwise
vi- she did?
l- yeah, she's right I might say, I'm clearly not ready yet..
vi- why?
l- I can feel I'm still mentally fragile and.. I need to be stronger, people out there are crazy
vi- I know, so why do you wanna go?!
l- because I wanna be free.. I don't want to grow old here
vi- mmh.. I see... well, I'm gonna miss you when you're gone
l- I'm not gone yet».
He said standing up, before walking towards Nami. Vivi couldn't believe her ears, he had talked to her and this last phrase!! what does it even mean? did he even care about her?!? He walked next to Nami and said :
«l- we order food or what?
n- ohh you manage, not on me
l- ok, pizza ?
ace- oh yeah!! peperoni
n- take one with no meat, just cheese
lu- is that even a pizza without meat?
ace- no interest
kid- weird
l- so, peperoni, marggerita?
z- the one with chicken
l- okay
lu- pepperoni too
l- ok so 4 pepperonis
sab- Hawaiian
ace- eww
z- who eats that?! *
kid- ananas on pizza should be forbidden
sab- you crazy, guys, that's the best one
kid- bullshit, extra cheese for me
l- ok, Vivi?
vi- uh.. I'm fine thanks
n- take something, that's Law's crawl
vi- just the veggie one
l- okay».
He went to the kitchen to call and order, and Luffy followed him.
«lu- can we add more meat on mine?»
Zoro looked at Ace, implying him to move further, so Ace sat a bit further so Zoro moved too, letting some room for Nami. He showed her the new empty space, and she smiled, and looked at a Vivi, to see if she had noticed. Vivi was happy for her friend, she smiled and signed her to sit. But before Nami could, Zoro pulled her. She fell sat, her head leaning on his shoulder. She sat better and looked at him, amused, he kept playing with Ace like nothing, but saw her in the corner of his vision. She finally leaned her head against his shoulder again, holding his muscular arm and, watching their game.Kidd saw that and suddenly the idea that Zoro could actually be her boyfriend passed his mind. He didn't like this idea, he felt like in concurrency with him.
«kid- whenever you want
ace- you lost the previous game, dude
kid- not on me if the character stucks
sab- excuses
ace- nobody can be as lame as Zoro anyway *laughs*
n- you're harsh, it's not that bad
sab- you just don't know what it looks like when you play good
n- I'm on level 130, who's game do you think it is?!
sab- damn?! how did you pass the level 53
n- by taking the castle, obviously
sab- you succeeded in going to the castle?!
n- yeah, after you kill the snitch in the dead city, and you pay the elf so he doesn't talk, and then you follow the old man to the river, and there's a path behind some trees to the castle
sab- oh God the old man!! I thought we didn't care about him
ace- you pay the elf?? I killed him
n- yeah so you won't pass level 97 'cause you need his approval to take the dragon
ace- you kidding?? I'm on level 95
n- yeah, unless you find the magic mirror, there's no way the dragon let you ride him
ace- ohhh I got this!! I got the magic mirror
sab- no way?
n- how?! I've been searching for it all along?!?!
ace- randomly when I was getting money in a shirty bar
n- you found it in a side quest?!?
ace- *chuckles* yeah
sab- I'll never pass 53
z- wait, how you actually know about all this?
n- lot of insomnia during summer
sab- is that possible that we find the mirror in one of the side quests we're doing now?
n- no idea
ace- well, theoretically as long as you didn't use it, you still have a wish, so maybe you have several chances to find it
sab- plus you can redo side quests, so we can find the one you did
ace- yeah!! we can do that
n- damn, if you find it guys...
ki- what does the one who find it win?
n-... my forever gratitude
ace- doesn't worth the fight
n- no money
ace- why? you just won a bunch
n- to invest not to waste
ace- fine, then what?
n- let me think about it».
She stood up and went to see Law in the kitchen.
« n- yo
l- it's good, in about 20 minutes
n- cool
l- you ok ?
n- yeah.. why ?
l- don't know.. like.. what will you do now you got the money ?
n- I don't know yet.. probably waiting for my mom or sister to be home and go on Cocoyashi.. and try to have an new deal.. I don't know
l- what's the actual one ?
n- they treat my sister as long as we pay..
l- just take your sister back
n- if it was this easy..
l- it's not ?
n- .. *nods no*
l- then what your mom or sister will change ? What would you do there ?
n- probably die but at least I'll get to see my sister
l- die ? You serious ?
n- didn't you listen to the song I Wrote?.. Plus, you told yourself how violent and heartless fishmen pirates can be...
l-.. »
In the living room :
«ace- tell your girl she gimme money, dude
z- not my business
kid- your girl uh?
z- yeah.. Law told me about your bet
kid- *chuckles out of surprise* oh yeah
z- yeah, interesting bet, I might say
ace- what bet?
z- he thinks he can make Nami fall for him
sab- that's the bet?
ki- more or less
ace- how much?
ki- 2000 if she falls, 2500 if I do
sab- why is that more?
ki- Law bet 500 bucks
ace- I bet 500 she falls
z- dude
ace- gotta keep the bet tight bro
z- 1000 she don't
sab- ouuhhh
ki- so 2500 on me and 3500 her
sab- add 200 on her
lu- I don't get it, who wins money in the end??
ace- that's right how do we proceed?».
Sabo took 200 Berries out of his wallet and put them on the table.
«sab- we share the total amount of the opposite team?
z- fine by me».
He put 1000 Berries on the table. Then Ace put 500 and Kidd 2000.
«lu- can I bet too?
sab- who do you think's gonna fall first?
lu- how can we even know?!
ace- he's right, let's say the one who makes the first move
kid- ok, fine
lu- I put 50».
He put 50 on the table.
«sab- Vivi ?
vi- I won't bet on my friend's feelings, thanks
ace- *chuckles* more money for me».
In the entrance, Nami and Law were witnessing this scene. Nami was looking at Law, mad that he told Zoro about the bet, but not really mad since he acted kinda sweet about it.
«n- shambles the money and their wallet here
l- why?
n- you'll see».
Law grabbed a pile of paper towels and shambled the money with it. Nami took everyone's card in their wallet and said :
«n- put them back
l- I'm not your butler
n- come on, please».
He shambled the wallet back in their place, while Nami added 2000 and Law 500 Berries and she put all the money in a little bag. In the living room, they just saw the money on the table disappear, letting a bunch of paper towel instead, Nami arrived and said :
«n- thank you everyone for your participation, I can't wait to wining all your money
sab- that we're gonna share!
n- sure.. obviously».
She put the bag above the bookshelf.
«ace- well, did you think of what we win?
n- I think you're right, we should put money on the line
ace- ahhh!
n- what about yours?».
She showed all of their card and said:
«n- the one that finds it, got to have their card back».
Sabo searched himself, wondering how did she had taken his Card. Zoro smiled, amused, she was then this good of a thief. Ace admired the gesture and remembered she told him about being a thief.
«ace- damn... so you said true
n- told you
ace- the liar and the thief
n- and not a pirate
lu- yet!!
ace- *chuckles*
n- yeah, whatever, let's play»
She sat back next to Zoro, and Law sat in between Luffy and Vivi. Yes, she was crazy about it.
«sab- how do we proceed?
ace- team by couch
lu- what?
ace- you're in a team with people on the sale couch as you
sab- but you're both 3
vi- no, I don't play
l- nice, I'm alone
lu- hey, I play
l- yeah, that's what I said
kid- you still are 3
z- I don't play
ace- God bless you, thanks
guys- *chuckles*
n- let's playyy ».
