Going to Hell
He blinks and smiles, "Ah, didn't you call me beautiful last time we met?" He rumbles. He starts to approach you and your knees buckle. He swiftly catches you, holding you against his chest. Your eyes widen as you stare up into his fiery orbs. "Easy, are you really that scared?" He murmurs.
"I..." You can't think, he's too close. He blinks and frowns, tail wrapping around your waist and keeping you up. He steps back and looks around, spotting a field with some trees. He hums in approval and starts for it carrying you with his tail. Your mind starts to clear up and the only thing on it was...
"Do you know where Law is?" You ask. He holds up a finger in response, taking you to a trio of trees before setting you down at the base of one. You blink up at him until he crouches in front of you.
"Alright here's the thing... Law has been labeled defective," He starts. "Mostly because he rather cuddle up to you then torment and steal your soul like he's supposed to... He has been taken back to be... Er... Reset," He explains. Your heart drops.
"But... No... Y-you can't!" You gasp, grabbing onto the demon's hands. He tenses, pulling back slightly as pink dusts his cheeks.
"It's a three day process, unless you can figure out a way to save him.... Your friend will be gone." He tells you. Something like a sad frown goes across his lips. You pause, blinking in surprise.
"Why are you telling me this?" You ask quietly. He blinks and smiles a bit.
"I'm curious about a thing called love... They say it's pretty strong... So I was wondering how you intend to save him.... Or if you were going to leave it be since you are two different beings anyway," He responds. You blink at him again and he carefully frees his hands from your grasp.
"Save him?" You echo. He smiles and nods.
"Love finds a way they say.... Goodluck, I hope you make it in time," He says before disappearing in a flicker of fire. You sat there for a long time before taking out your phone and sending a mass text.
<b>Guys, we need to talk, and I really <i>really</i> need your help</b>
You let out a breath and stand, starting for home again, "Three days to save my demon boyfriend..."
You looked at everyone sitting in your living room. Zoro was at his competition no doubt. You were nervous without your best friend there to back you up. Would the others believe you? Would they help you? You open your mouth to start, making them all look at you curiously.
"Guys I-" Zoro comes into the house then, surprising you. "But... Your competition?" You breathe. He gives you a look.
"___, you're way more important than a fencing competition," He grunts. You blink and smile as he puts a hand on your shoulder. "So, what do you need help with?" He asks.
"Alright guys listen... Ive been hiding something from you guys. Something you might not believe..." You begin, they shift but no pushes as you take a deep breath. "I can see and touch the supernatural." You tell them.
"Like ghosts?" Usopp asks warily.
"Or demons," Zoro tells him.
"For the past couple days a demon has been staying with me. He's not bad, kinda helpful actually..." You murmur.
"Oh! Was that what was eating your food at the restaurant?" Luffy asks with a head tilt.
"Yep, that was him," Zoro answers as you blink at the raven haired guy in surprise.
"Hold on... You can see and touch spirits? For how long?" Nami questions. You look at your dad who shrugs.
"As far as I know, since my dad passed.... Zoro can see them now too," You tell them. Zoro nods when they gap at him.
"Then, what do you need our help with?" Sanji asks carefully. You drop your gaze to the floor.
"Law... The demon that has been hanging around... He was taken last night... They're taking him back to hell to be 'reset'..." You choke out, filling your eyes heat with tears. "I... I know this sounds crazy... B-but I love him the way he is now... I don't want to lose him..." You tell them, tears escaping your eyes. "I don't care if this is some doomed love we have... I just want him back by my side... Please... I don't know what to do... I have three days to get him back," Your voice cracks at the end and Zoro pulls you into his chest, rubbing your back. The room falls silent except for your shaky breaths.
"What do we do?" Chopper asks, breaking the silence much to your surprise.
"Can we summon him?" Usopp wonders.
"If we do that there's a very low chance on summoning him," Robin points out. You blink at them in awe. Were they really willing to help you save a demon?
"Why not just go get him?" Luffy asks with a shrug, everyone gaps at him in shock and horror. You blink.
"That... That might work..." You murmur and now the gazes are drawn to you. "I'm not sure how they work, but back at the mansion Law said there was a portal..." You tell them. Luffy grins as the others pale.
"Then lets go get him!" Luffy chimes getting up.
"Yeah, if he means that much to you, we'll help you any way we can," Nami says. You feel your tears building up agains.
"You guys... Thank you..." You breathe hugging them.
"Alright.... Looks like we're literally going to hell..." Sanji puns, making you giggle while the others glare.
