Chapter 3: A Night in the Dog House

‘The fuck is that incessant beeping!?’Lucci thought sleepily. It took him more then a couple of moments to realise the noise was emanating from his mobile. He picked it up and opened it, the beeping stopped immediately. He just lay staring at the small screen waiting for his brain to register what the writing on it meant. Eventually he realised it was a phone call and bought the phone to his ear.

“Hello?” He slurred, still more asleep then awake.

“Hello Rob, its Drake, I didn’t interrupt anything did I?” Lucci rolled over and pressed the button on his alarm clock, lighting up the screen.

“It’s 2am, what do you want.”

“Sorry about that. I'm down on 4^th and found this girl on the street balling her eyes out, she asked me to call you.”

‘Who the hell would be asking for me?’He though with some distain.

“Tell whoever it is to leave you alone.” Kalifa mumbled from next to him.

“It’s about work.” He answered.

“I don’t care, tell them to wait ‘till the morning.” He sat up in bed, ignoring her complaints.

“Arguing with the missus?” Drake interrupted.

“We aren’t married and you damn well know it.” He snapped at the man.

Lucci sighed and ran his fingers through his hair.

“Did she give you a name?”

“Yeah, she said it was Luffy.” Lucci furrowed his brow at the answer.

“Why did she ask for me and not her brother?”

“Don’t know, but she wants you here. Do you want me to tell her you can’t come?” Lucci sighed heavily.

“No, I’ll come.”

“No you’re not! You’re coming back to bed.” Kalifa interrupted from behind him. Lucci rolled his eyes, he hated how she tried to control every aspect of his life, he chose to once again ignore her.

“4^th right?” He asked Drake.

“That’s right, you’re coming?” He asked a little shocked. Apparently he could hear Kalifa’s complaints.

“I’ll be there in ten.” He snapped the phone shut without another word.

“You’re NOT going out.” Kalifa informed him. Lucci simply climbed out of bed and started to get dressed.

“Don’t ignore me Rob!” She snapped.

“Shut up. This is about work, I’m going out.” He pulled on his pants and went looking for a shirt.

“At 2am!?” She asked sarcastically. He rounded on her.

“Yes! At 2am!” He said raising his voice, not something he did often.

Lucci finished getting dressed and slid on his thick leather jacket. He briefly stopped to retrieve a motorbike helmet from the cupboard in the hallway and shoved his wallet and phone in his pocket.

“Find somewhere else to sleep then.” She snapped, settling back into bed.

“Fine.” He said as he walked out the apartment, slamming the door behind him.

><><><><><><

After only a few minutes Lucci pulled up behind the patrol car and kicked down that stand of his motorbike. Drake was leaning on the back of the car waiting for him, he spoke as Lucci pulled off his helmet

“Evening Rob.”

“Morning, more like.” Lucci answered flatly, casting his eyes around the dark street, being overly cautious as usual. He saw one guy watching them from afar but he wasn’t causing any harm so Lucci thought nothing of him.

“Did she tell you anything?” Lucci asked, turning his gaze on Luffy. She was still rather distraught, but calming down in Coby’s presence.

“About why she’s upset? No, she hasn’t said a word about that. Are you ok to take her home?” He asked, a little anxious to get back on patrol.

“Yeah, I can handle her.” He said moving closer to where the girl was sitting. “You two can get back on patrol.”

“Thank you for coming out so late Rob, I appreciate it.” Drake said with a smile. As grumpy as Lucci was he couldn’t be angry with the other man, Drake was just one of those people you couldn’t help but like.

“Don’t worry about it.” He mumbled as Coby got to his feet.

“I guess I’ll see you tomorrow then.” Drake said with a smile, climbing into the car, soon followed by Coby. Once the pair had departed Lucci sat down next the girl and lit up a cigarette, not saying a word.

“Sorry I dragged you out here.” Luffy said with a after a long while.

“What happened?” The girl looked away.

“Zoro, he …” her voice trailed off. Lucci looked up at her and he could see the pain clear in her eyes but he had no idea what to say, he had always avoided conversations like that. He opted to stay silent and wait for her to continue.

“Fucking bastard cheated on me… again.” He hissed, her voice coated in anger.

“What did you do?” He asked after a moment of silence.

“Told him I don’t want to see him again.” She mumbled, sobbing again. Lucci found himself watching her again, for some reason she fascinated him. He reached out and put a hand on her shoulder, trying to quell her tears.

The girl jumped at the contact before looking up at him with those big brown, tear-filled eyes. Without warning she threw herself at him, wrapping her arms around Lucci’s waist and cried into his chest.

Gingerly Lucci placed a hand on her soft hair. He just wanted the awkward situation to go away.

Luffy pulled away from him after a long couple of minutes. She wiped her eyes and gave him a sad smile.

“I … guess I’ll go home now.” She spoke quietly, as if he would get angry at her.

Lucci stood up abruptly and took off his lather jacket before dropping it on top of the teen.

“Put that on, I’ll take you.” Lucci refused to make eye contact with her, he didn’t want her to think that we was coming on the her.

‘I’m just doing my job.’He told himself.

“On … on your bike?” Luffy asked, looking up at him with surprise.

“Yes.” Her face broke into a huge smile the moment he answered. She jumped up and pulled on the jacket, leaving the zip undone.

“Put this on too.” Lucci held out his helmet but the girl didn’t make a move to take it.

“I don’t need that.” She informed him still smiling.

He just stood there giving her his best unimpressed look.

“Fine.” Luffy mumbled with a pout. She took the helmet and put it on while Lucci mounted him bike.

“Where do you live.” Luffy climbed on behind him and hugged his stomach tightly while Lucci kick started the bike, the engine roaring to life.

“That way.” She pointed in the direction she had come from.

Lucci took off the street without a further word.

Without his helmet the wind stung Lucci's eyes and made it hard to see but god it felt good. It made him feel free, like he could do anything, he just wished he could drive faster without being completely unable to see. He reminded himself once again to buy a pair of goggles for times like this.

Luffy occasionally lifted one or the other of her hands to point out a road that Lucci promptly turned down. It didn’t take long for him to become aware of Luffy’s hands moving lower down his stomach, she did it every time she pointed out directions. When she started tracing a finger along the fabric of his pants beneath his belt he reached down and moved her hands back up to cover his stomach. No way in hell was he going to have a minor groping him.

After a short time she pointed out her apartment complex, Lucci pulled into the adjacent car park, found a space and kicked down the stand.

“End of the line.” He said absently, waiting for the girl to dismount.

“Can we drive around for a bit longer?” Luffy said quietly, not letting go of the man. He sighed heavily.

“Gas costs money and it’s already late.” Though he couldn’t deny that he wouldn’t mind staying out longer, he knew Kaku wouldn’t be too happy about him showing up at this hour.

“Fine.” She mumbled and dismounted, Lucci following suit.

Luffy took off the helmet and held it out to him.

“Thanks for the ride.” As much as she loved the older man’s company she couldn’t help but be depressed. Zoro had betrayed her again and Lucci had rejected her advances. She just wanted to curl up and go to sleep for a couple of days.

“Your welcome.” He hesitated a moment before he spoke again. “Let me walk you to your apartment.” He felt like it was his duty to make sure she got home safely.

The girl’s face lit up at the offer.

“Yeah sure.” She started to move towards the building then stoped. “But… I don’t think my brothers would want that… ohh well! This way!” She led the way to the building with a slight spring in her step.

Before too long she pranced happily up to one of the doors.

“This is me.” She informed with a smile. The sounds of arguing could be heard clearly from within.

“uhhh, yeah, that’s my brothers.” She knocked on the door and the sound immediately quelled the argument.

The door suddenly opened inwards. “Luffy! What the hell are y-” Ace fell silent when he laid eyes on Lucci. “What did she do?” He asked after a moment.

“I didn’t do anything Ace, he just drove me home.” Luffy interrupted.

He looked up at Lucci again, suspicious look in his eyes. “Thanks.”

Luffy skipped around her brother and in the door. “See ya later Rob.~”

“My jacket…” He said blankly, he didn’t much feel like going on the road without it. Luffy blushed a little, she had been caught.

“I was hoping you wouldn’t notice.” She took it off and gave it back to the man before disappearing into her room, leaving the two men alone.

“I would appreciate it if you didn’t tall anyone where we live.” Ace said, his face dead serious. Lucci noticed another man further into the apartment, a blond, leaning against a doorframe watching them. Lucci recognised him as Sabo, another wanted man.

“I’m off the job, honestly I don’t care where you lot live.” It was true, he knew he would get a nice promotion if he bought them in but to be honest, he wasn’t interested in rank climbing.

“Thanks mate.” Ace let out a sigh of relief, he was still a little suspicious but he believed the older mans words.

“No problem, keep her out of trouble.” He slid on his jacket and headed back towards the stares without a further word.

><><><><><><

After the short drive Lucci found himself knocking on the door of Kaku’s apartment, there was no way in hell he was going to go home and deal with Kalifa tonight. When he got no answer he used his key to get in. both he and Kaku had the copies of the keys to the other’s apartment, just in case.

Lucci moved into the apartment and hung up his jacket and helmet, he glanced at his watch. “3am.” He mumbled. “Gonna be a long day.” He pulled off his shoes and left them at the door before going into the lounge and flopping down on the couch, not bothering with the lights; he knew the apartment too well to walk into anything.

The weather was warm enough to not need blankets so he planned to go to sleep as he was. He lay there staring at the ceiling, thinking about his day. Three encounters with the same damn delinquent, he knew this girl would be more trouble then she was worth the moment he had met her, he had just been proven right.

Then he realised what he had done.

By coming out to see her tonight he had let her in, made her think it was ok to contact him. He sighed heavily, knowing the youngest Portgas would only cause him more trouble, he just knew it. As he started to drift off he absently wondered of he could pass her case files off to someone else, Drake maybe, he didn’t seem to mind dealing with her, Smoker even. He fell asleep knowing that no matter how hard he tried, he wouldn’t be able to get rid of the girl, he’d just have to get used to her.

><><><><><><

“What the hell are you doing here!?” Jyabura yelled when he came out the bedroom that morning and spotted Lucci asleep on the couch.

“Sleeping, shut up mutt.” Lucci mumbled, covering his eyes with his arm. The older man walked over to him.

“What happened? Did that bitch kick you out… wait, it’s your apartment aint it? She kicked you out of your own apartment!?” He couldn’t help but laugh loudly, it was one hell of an amusing thought for him.

“Ohh fuck off, she didn’t kick me out.” Lucci grumbled angrily, taking a swipe at the older man who easily dodged it. Lucci didn’t much feel like dealing with Jyabura first thing in the morning.

“What’s with all the noise Jy?” Kaku wondered out the bedroom rubbing his eyes. He looked over to where the noise was coming from and saw Lucci attempting to sleep on the couch.

“ohh, hey Rob, leave him alone Jy.” He mumbled before he went into the kitchen in search of coffee. After a moment Jya followed Kaku, chuckling and telling Kaku the assumptions he had made.

Once Jyabura was awake there was no chance of Lucci getting any sleep, the man was too loud obnoxious to allow that, so Lucci just lay there staring up at the ceiling, thinking. It would be a long day for Lucci. He would first have to go home and deal with Kalifa, then the long hours at work. This was the last chance for him to get some down time in the long day and he had to spend it with that damn mutt Jyabura around.

“Guess it can’t be helped.” He mumbles quietly, sitting up.

He glanced down at his watch, it was still early, he had plenty of time to do all he needed before work, he decided he may as well spend his time where he was. Just as he was thinking of getting up Kaku came in and sat next to him, two cups of coffee in hand.

“So what brings you into my lovely home this early in the morning?” Kaku asked in a light-hearted tone as he handed Lucci a mug.

Lucci sighed, there was no use in hiding anything from Kaku, the younger man knew him too well.

“I got a call out last night then Kalifa and I had a disagreement so I came here instead of going home.” Lucci’s voice was cold and unfeeling, the way he had been getting recently when talking about Kalifa.

Kaku remained quiet for a long moment. “Was it because you came out with us last night?” He asked, afraid that it was his fault all this happened.

“No, it was nothing you did, Drake called me about 2am and she didn’t want me to go out.” He was really getting shitted off with her controlling attitude.

Kaku raised an eyebrow. “What was the call about?” Lucci was silent for a long moment before he spoke again.

“Remember I dealt with that Portgas girl yesterday? Well Drake found her on the street in a right state and she asked him to call me, go knows why.”

“What happened to her?” Kaku asked, a kindly tone to his voice.

“Troubles with her boyfriend apparently. I gave her a lift home then came here.” he took a sip of his hot coffee. There was nothing left to tell.

“So what about you and this Kalifa then?” Jyabura’s gruff voice sounded from the threshold to the kitchen. The man had always had amazing hearing. “You gonna dump her or what?” insensitive as usual.

Lucci thought for a long moment, weighing all the pros and cons before answering.

“Yeah, I think I will.” Kaku didn’t look too happy to hear about it but he didn’t object, he knew Kalifa didn’t make Lucci happy and that’s what he wanted in the long run, for Lucci to be happy.

“’Bout time too. Get rid’a the bitch and ya self someone good for ya.” Jyabura said loudly, making his dislike for Kalifa more then obvious.

Lucci didn’t know about the second part but the first was something he was most certainly planning to do in a hurry.

After a long silence Kaku spoke up. “Are you sure you want to do this Rob? Kick Kalifa out I mean… there’s not a chance you two can work it out?” The red head was friends with the both of them, he didn’t want to see either of them sad.

“No Kaku… This has been going on too long. I'm getting to the point where I can’t stand to be around her.”

“… Alright. I'm behind you.” Lucci would have done it regardless of weather Kaku was on his side or not but he was happy to hear he was.

“Thanks… I should get going soon. Seems like I've got a lot to take care of this morning then I previously thought.” He stated, the cold voice returning.

“Need any help with anything? I don’t have to be into work till after you.” Jya offered. One of the few civil moments he and Lucci shared.

“No, I’ll be fine.” He took a long drink of his coffee, draining the mug. “Thank you for the coffee and the place to stay” he got to his feet.

“Won’t you even stay for breakfast?” Kaku asked.

“No, I’ll get something on the way to work, thanks for the offer though. I'm heading off.”

He three said their goodbyes and Lucci departed, heading straight for home. He was acting more broody then usual. He knew Kalifa would be there waiting for him and he knew she would freak out about he being out all night.

It was the way it always was. She would tell him not to come home and he didn’t she would tell him off for it. Lucci wasn’t much looking forward to the impeding argument, the one he knew would destroy his relationship.

With that in mind he went home.
