Zoro and Kid smoothed things over easily, and your lesson started without a problem. However it became apparent that you weren't really yourself when you had a sword. Zoro had been surprised by your precise and strong movements.

Kid straightens up as he watches you making Zoro back up with each hit. You were like a different person. Especially since just before Zoro had handed you the bamboo sword you looked really nervous to go up against him.

His phone vibrates again and he frowns. He'd call Killer back later and tell him it was pointless now, he wouldn't leave you alone anymore. The moment he had answered the phone when you were being attacked he had mentally kicked his self. He had wanted to kill those bastards, but stopped himself when he looked back at you. He didn't want to kill in your presence.

And then when you broke down in front of him, he felt the fear too. He was worried about you, something was going on and neither of you knew what or why. Now he just wanted to protect you from anymore pain and fear. You were so much different from Leanna, her complete opposite. He didn't know why he had been wary when he realized the feelings he was developing for you, maybe he didn't want to go through it all again.

At first he had stayed out of curiosity, to find out how you had managed to wander into one of Hell's prisons without being detected. Then he stuck around just to mess with you, you do have the cutest reactions to everything he does. Now... Now he stayed because being away from you anymore would be worse than being chained back up in hell. When exactly had he fallen so hard for you? That whenever you weren't in sight he thought about you, wanted to be near your warmth. Oh... From the very moment you peeked into his cell and met his gaze. That was when it happened.

"Alright ___,"He speaks up and you stop, looking over at him at that.

"Hm?" You hum, dropping the bamboo sword. Zoro picks it up.

"___, I don't think you need training..." He tells you. You look at the greenette in confusion.

"But we haven't started yet...?" You murmur. He pauses and shares a glance with Kid.

"You should get some rest, you look tired." He says, touching your shoulder.

"Um okay..." You rub your cheek and Kid picks you up, wrapping your legs around his waist. "W-What are you doing?!" You question blushing.

"I want to carry you for a while. Say bye to Zoro." He chuckles.

"See you Zoro..." You murmur relaxing and hugging Kid's neck.

"Take care ___, and don't wander off alone." He waves as Kid carries you out of the dojo. You rest your cheek on your arm, looking around. "Why are you carrying me like this?"

"So I can hold you like a teddy bear." He chuckles hugging you to him. You blush and huff.

"Weirdo..." You murmur making him laugh.

"So... What do you want to do the rest of the night?" He asks.

"I... Don't know... I don't really want to watch a movie.... Can we eat dinner and then bundle up on the couch and you tell me a story...?"

"A story? What kind of story?" He seemed surprised to hear that.

"A happy one." You hum. "I don't like your serious and sad stories, they make me want to curl up in a ball..."

"I don't know any happy ones... But I'll try." He says. "Shit..." He suddenly puts you down. You follow he gaze in confusion and feel your heart skip a beat. Law looks at his dad in confusion since he was staring Kid down looking serious. Oh no...

"Oh, hi Mr. Trafalgar, Law." You smile, trying to change the direction. Law blinks at you.

"Hey, what are you two doing out? It's late." Law says.

"Heading back to the house for dinner. You want to come along Law?" Kid asks calmly, surprising you both.

"Oh... Sure." Law says, his dad moves to stop him but you go and hug Law's neck cheerfully.

"Hm? Something wrong da- Mr.Trafalgar?" You ask him, making him pause.

"No, it's nothing, have fun Law." He smiles before heading off. You glance back at Kid and he offers a nod.

"So what are you two doing out so late again?" Law asks as you all walk for your house.

"I was training with swords with Zoro.... Well... Supposed to but he said I looked to tired..." You sigh.

"Maybe next time then... Oh now that you mentioned it, once I finish tomorrow mornings training I'll get a sword, apparently it's a tradition," He shrugs.

"Oh, that's cool... You're not going to stab some one with it right?" You ask carefully.

"Why would I do that?" He tilts his head in confusion.

"Just wondering..." You glance at Kid. Heading inside, Law looks around.

"Are they gone again?" Law asks.

"Yep, another business trip for both. It feels like Kid and I are the only ones that live here." You shrug.

"I kinda miss them, ___ is so mean to me sometimes." Kid jokes.

"Wha- you're full of shit!" You huff, nudging him. He chuckles at that.

"So, what's for dinner?" Law asks, looking at you thoughtfully. The way he asks makes you blush.

"... It's a surprise! Go to the living room or my room! Kitchen is off limits!" You shoo him out making him chuckle. Once he's out you turn to Kid. "What am I going to do?!" You whisper checking the fridge only to find snacks.

"I can make some food appear." He offers. You shift and nod.

"Right... In that case... How about a miniature buffet?" You smirk.

"Isn't that over doing it if he thinks it's you?" He points out.

"You're right... I just said that because I had no idea what we should eat." You rub your neck.

"I have an idea, but... I kinda want you to do something for me just because it's for the priest boy..." He smirks. You shift, what else could you do about dinner?

"What?" You inquire.

"I won't tell you yet, but will you still accept?" He hums devilishly.

"Your demon is showing." You tell him offering your hand for handshake. He chuckles and takes it before making a simple but beautiful dinner appear. "You're amazing." You sigh with a small smile.

"Flattery huh? Careful, I don't think you want that to work." He winks. You roll your eyes and push him playfully. "So, going to go get 'prince'?" He coos, pursing his lips.

"Sh-Shut up! Its weird when you say it." You blush making him chuckle. He nudges You and you go out to find Law. For a moment his smile falls and he sighs. He was only doing this to do right by you, and he was a demon, it's not like he deserved any of your attention to begin with...

You find Law in your room looking at the snack locker. "This is... Interesting." He raises an eyebrow.

"Heh, I think it's awesome, especially since Kid made it himself." You touch one of the jolly rogers on it.

"You really like him, don't you?" Law murmurs.

"He's... Grown on me." You shrug with a slight smile. "Come on, dinner is ready." You add cheerfully before leading him out the kitchen where Kid already sat.

"Jeez, how long does it take to get someone? Or were busy making ou-" You punch him in the shoulder and he cackles.

"Shut up and eat you idiot." You grumble blushing as you sit down. Law chuckles lightly and joins you.

"So I assume you smoothed things over with Roronoa-ya since you were there?" Law comments to Kid.

"Yeah, I did Law-ya." He smirks a bit. Law frowns knowing the ya was to mock him.

"You sure are acting mischievous." You look at Kid briefly.

"Eh, must be the full moon, you know they say that's when monsters have the most power. Not to mention the portals to the other place get bigger." Kid shrugs thoughtfully.

"Are you calling yourself a monster?" You frown slightly. He meets your gaze briefly before looking at Law.

"I only said it since he's training to be a priest. Maybe he wasn't aware." He assures.

"I heard of that, and the day following is when most enter this world because of the lingering power." Law nods. "I'm surprised you know that though."

"I'm not an idiot... That's why I stay around her." Kid glances at you before he finishes eating. "Popcorn time!" He chimes before leaving you and Law to go make popcorn. You blink after him feeling oddly happy at his words.

"Weirdo." You scoff smiling a bit.

"He sure seems different from when I was last here..." Law says as he finishes eating as well, wiping his mouth before kissing your cheek. "I enjoyed it, maybe I'll visit just for dinner." He winks before getting up. "See you tomorrow."

With that Law leaves and you relax, moving to clean up but everything disappears. You blink and look over at Kid as pours a bowl of popcorn, giving you a smirk. "Now, you have to pay up, come on." He chuckles, going into the living room. You huff and follow him.

"I'm almost scared to ask what you want..." You sigh.

"Its nothing bad... Just, sing to me." He sits down, facing you with a smile. "Killer said you have an amazing voice."

"He talks about me?" Your eyes narrow.

"Sometimes, it's always something random too. Your favorite food, the scent you like, the way you get nervous before making a move... I think he really liked you and ruined everything on purpose because he was afraid falling for you." He puts a knuckle to his chin.

"That idiot." You both mutter. Kid smiles at you and you giggle at that. "Sing to you huh? I haven't done that in a while... Are you sure?"

"Yes." He replies bluntly, seeming a bit excited. "I haven't heard music in a long time, this will be good."

You shift feeling nervous and blushing under his gaze. "I can't while you're looking..." You cover his eyes and move behind him. He hums curiously as you lean on his back and neck, resting your cheek on top of his head and closing your eyes as your mind searches for a song.

 "Traveling side by side all this time.

But we never spoken

Always hiding when you're in sight

It felt like my heart couldn't be broken

And then your eyes focused on her..

And it felt like hell on earth....

And yet I stayed by your side,

Praying you'd see the light...

And when you were broken

I tried to reach out

But it was already too late...

When you left this world I cried

For years and years.

I had felt so hollow...

And now that we're here again

I have one question....

Can you see me now?

Holding out my hand in case you stumble

Smiling when you're happy

Staying by your side When you feel lonely.

Can you see me now....?

Can you feel this love?

I've always been here

waiting for you." 

He was still as you finished and pulled away. You peer at his face when he doesn't move. He seemed awed and rather sad. "That's a sad song... Do you listen to it a lot?" He murmurs finally looking at you.

"I just made it up.... I wasn't really paying attention did it sound okay?" You rub your neck and he suddenly pulls you onto his lap, hugging you close and kissing your cheek.

"Next time you have to sing a happy song..." He grumbles, nuzzling your neck. You blink and giggle lightly.

"Deal... But you still awe me a good story." You remind him.

"I thought of one. It's about a dragon that falls in love with a princess... And eats the king, and burns down a village." He nods.

"Sounds... Interesting....."
