Both Rocinante and Chloe exchanged swift glances with each other, both frowning at the two youths sitting in front of them, Law was silently chewing down on his broccoli, but his eyes were definitely screaming desprate words at the (H/C) haired female beside him, a curious bruise was forming on his face, but the father deemed it just another accident from a play fight with the two boys that he hanged around with at school.

(Y/N) though, didn't give the tanned raven a single glance as she almost violently stabbed at what remained of her steak, still playing with the same potato bit in her mouth, Chloe could barely spot an invisible trail of tears that seemed to have gone down her cheeks not that long ago as she blankly stared at the messy plate, but it was too subtle to actually point out.

"Okay, me and Cora here are going to go out for a moment" finally both of the teens looked her in the eye as well as the blonde male, "what?" He squeaked, but the adult was quickly silenced by a hidden elbow to the gut.

Ignoring his weak protests of her plan, the pale woman easily dragged his ass across the floor and outside before giving the two a small, kindhearted smile just as she passed the front door, "get along you two, and do not do anything stupid, you hear?" The woman shut the front door immediately before any of them could possibly respond even if they wanted to.

Silence briefly entered the room before immediately being vacated by Law's quick chatter, "(Y/N) I am sorry I did not know how my words affected you please forgive me I was being dimwitted and-" "ignorant" the girl silenced him with a single word, it wasn't forceful or hostile, but it made Law's mouth snap shut faster than a bear trap.

Slowly meeting his eyes with her soft (E/C) ones, the boy felt his heart swell in the rejuvenating forgiveness he found in them, "you're not stupid Law, you're just ignorant, and I'm sorry too, I shouldn't have snapped like that, I was once very ignorant too after all" she thought back to when she first arrived and smiled.

Looking up at Law's stupefied expression with a gentle smile, she carefully slid her hand onto his own before raising her other one to his cheeks, blushing at their short distance, the noble's cocoa shaded skin flushed a soft hue of pink at her soft, calming touch, how he wanted to kiss her at that moment and find out how her lips felt.

"So then, why don't I educate you?" Law felt some deep, primal part of himself swell with unease and attraction from her sweet honey tone, like that one small part of a sailor that's still conscious and trying to snap the rest of his body back into reality in order to keep the enchanting siren below from alluring them to their demise, but (Y/N) definitely wasn't dangerous as far as he knew, right?

Wanting nothing but to please the girl after upsetting her so, once again he found himself acting before thinking and nodded his head in agreement, "yes" he mummered in a daze, still finding warmth in her clear (E/C) orbs, sinking into their depths and making a small home in them, that warm look was all for him, and how dearly he wanted it to stay that way.

Smiling at his answer, Law was left nothing but quivering jello from the spark he felt thump in his chest when she rubbed both her hands with his own in such a calming manner, god he was nothing but crumbling sand under her treacherous touch.

"Okay then, but we gotta make a quick change in clothes first" the raven felt that feeling from before rise back from his gut but shoved it back down once more, (Y/N) was the sweetest thing on the planet who cared for her friends, she was the best thing that ever happened to him, there wasn't anything for him to be worried about.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I completely take back what I thought earlier!" Law was regretting almost every choice he made today, sweating bullets as (Y/N) tinkered with a primitive looking device that mildly piked his intrest, occasionally looking up at the wall that divided them from the uncivilized, barbaric ruffians ahead.

Trying one last time to sway her, he gripped her arm and internally begged at her almost glowing (E/C) orbs, "this is a very bad idea, (Y/N), going over there is an enormous act of treason! We could get arrested and sent to prison for our entire lives, and if we do not, then the rebels will stab us to death with spears once they see us! Or even worse they might eat us alive! Do you know what that is!? Cannibalism!" The raven hissed.

(Y/N) almost wanted to laugh at his silly accusations, where did these nobles come up with this stuff? "Law trust me, we're not getting caught, and we're not getting killed, besides we got disguises" tossing him a mysterious smile from over her shoulder, the teen felt his stomach melt into heated butter and felt all his stress melt along with it, such strange effects she was having on him.

Clenching his spotted tunic that the girl was able to pull together from discarded scrap materials, he hid his nose in the thick fur of the collar before accepting his fate, there was no way to stop her now, not like this, all he could do was try to bury himself amongst all the materials that were shoved upon him.

Grinning at her victory, the hellraiser prepared the grappling hook, aimed it at a high perched flag pole and pulled the trigger, silently setting the mechanisms inside off.

As the device did it's thing, right before the rope started contracting, she purposely tripped Law, whisking him off of his feet before quickly wrapping an arm around his waist, the other greatly blushed once he realized their position and was just about to try and get some space in between them, when (Y/N) felt a tug on the rope and set off, carrying the other in her free arm.

Jumping up high at just the right moment, the male had to remind himself to stay silent as they almost practically flew over the wall and it's guard, looking into the distance as time seemed to have frozen for a mere moment, Law marveled at the full moon that was beginning to rise from the dark trees of the forest, slightly wondering what he could find out there.

Literally coming back down to earth, both the teens wheezed out a load of air once they slammed into a shallow mud puddle, Law, being raised with a code of cleanliness, abruptly stood up and scrunched his face at the feeling of dirt all over his body, but he was suddenly snapped out of his string of inner curses when he saw that (Y/N) didn't get up.

Thinking that she could have hurt herself on their way down, Law immediately went to look her over but was interrupted by the sound of jingling laughter.

Sitting there in awe, he watched as she rolled around in the puddle, purposely splashing it over herself and occasionally a bit at him too, though he couldn't understand why she was so happy with being absolutely filthy, taking a chance, he sat back down in the puddle beside her with a confused, but gentle smile.

Seeing that he joined her, (Y/N) paused for a moment, making the teen furrow his brows when she slowly gave him a mischievous smirk, grinning even wider when she carefully dragged her hands behind her back, "(Y/N)-"

Law was once again interrupted by a glob of mud to the face, falling onto his back in suprise, the (H/C) took the narrow moment to scurry out of his reach and giggle as he sat back up, scooping the muck from his eyes to give her a silvery glare that held empty malice before bursting out in laughter.

The noble didn't understand it at all, why did he find getting covered in filth so amusing? But the way (Y/N) giggled along with him, he didn't care if this didn't make any sense, so scooping up an even bigger glob of mud, he stood right up again before chasing her with it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"That Law, is what the rebels call *huff* a mud war" both of them were spread eagle in the grassy field, after playing together for what seemed to be like hours on end, they eventually tired out and collapsed from sheer exhaustion.

Looking at her bright smile, he grinned back at her, no longer doubting these strange ways of behaving, "is it? It is strangely satisfying, I should challenge Pen sometime just to ruin that high collar he is always so proud about" (Y/N) chuckled at the comment, "you really should, it's fun" she sighed.

Staring up, (Y/N) sprung an idea, "hey see those stars up there?" Watching the way she pointed up into the heavens, Law took the chance to scoot right beside her and take ahold of her other hand in between them, "yes" he mummered while staring at the dull lights above.

"Well if you connect that one with the one over there, and over there, plus with those three with the one there in the middle, that's what the rebels call the warrior's constellation" she mused.

Becoming attracted to the way the nebulas reflected in her (E/C) orbs, Law inched closer, now only a few inches apart, "constellation?" He breathed gently against her temple, "it's a story from the gods that they share to us through the stars using pictures..so the rebels say" (Y/N) turned to Law to face him but blinked in suprise at their close proximity.

Not being able to deny the dreamy look on her face, Law felt his mind fog and his heart race as he slowly leaned in, inching closer and closer to her shining eyes, smooth, mud stained cheeks, and tender lips, feeling everything become harmonized as he parted his lips.

(Y/N), seeing his obvious approach, made no move to stop him or deny his request, she decided long ago that she indeed thought of Law as a fitting potential mate, all he needed to be perfect was a bit of loosening up and the opening of his mind.

Their lips barely skimmed past each other when a thunderous voice boomed across the field like a bolt of lightning, "who the hell is out there!?" Law bolted back in suprise and suspense, hearing something fairly large heading towards them from the bottom of the hump in the field they rested on, and (Y/N) gasped in suprise, excitement, happiness and dread, she knew that voice, and she knew it well.
