Work Text:
Running quickly into the room, I hurried to close it as quickly as possible. I had to tinker with the lock, if I didn't have a few seconds left, I think he would have been able to catch me. And only after closing it, knocks on the door were heard from the other side. My heart was pounding wildly, ready to jump out of my chest. My legs are a little weak. A couple more short knocks were heard and there was a deathly silence. At that moment, you could hear your own heart beating.
"- Come on, open up, I know you're here, Luffy."
Suddenly, a slightly trembling voice rang out, which caused everything inside to shrink. It was very scary. Especially after realizing that you won't be able to get out of here in any way anymore. There is no other way out, except for this door behind which he was standing.
"- No.! Leave.. Go away, Sabo!"
Having said that, you could feel how confidence and courage rose in yourself, but it immediately quickly disappeared.
Suddenly, there was an active and loud knocking on the door.
Propping up the door with the back of a chair just in case, I quickly and noiselessly hid in the closet.
"- Why don't you open it for me?"
There was a short laugh and a kick was immediately kicked at the door.
"- Why don't you answer me?"
All the hard blows were aimed at the door. A little more and by the sounds it was possible to understand that the lock was about to break.
"Are you ignoring me?" Ha, that's so funny. Didn't they teach you how to talk to your elders? Answer me.
Another knock. A little more, and the Clogs will be here.
Silence again, it lasted for a very long time, it was a little annoying. But it gave hope.
“...I hope he's gone.”
- I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. I just want your love. Please come out. Let's have lunch together, just like in the good old days. You, me and Ace... You, me and him...
YOU, ME AND HIM.
It sounded even more exciting. He was clearly angry at Ace. It was noticeable even earlier, he was annoyed by his presence every time. Every time, every day. It was becoming much more noticeable. But at some point Ace moved out because of work, and now he hasn't been home for 2 months. Sabo was happy about this, like a five-year-old child who was bought cotton candy for the first time. It was also strange that he didn't run away from me now. Where I go, he goes. It was annoying. According to him, he called it "the care of an older brother."
Only then did such obsessive attention become understandable. Love, and not even brotherly. A real one. I refused him, and this led to frequent outbursts of his aggression. At such moments, he could not control himself. He even accidentally told me what he thought of Ace.
Then I thought, is this really the Sabo I know?
- You can hear me, come on, open this door. You open the door and I'll come in. I promise I won't do anything to you.
It was clear from his voice that he had calmed down, but I'm not going to believe him.
- I love you.
- Shut up and get out of here! I'll never open the door for you.
- Are you really not going to open it for me? If you're a good boy, I won't hurt you.
- Yes, I won't open it! Now get lost!
"If you won't open it, I'll open it."
I'm counting to three.
One... two... I'm coming!
A few blows and the lock broke, the door opened. Sabo was standing on the threshold. There was a crazy grin on his face.
- So you decided to play hide-and-seek with me?
Okay, I wonder where you hid?
He looked everywhere, everywhere except the closet.
He knew where to look for him.
- Maybe you're under the bed? Oh, when I remember, as a child, you always hid there. You were easy to find. So I pretended. It was very, very funny.
He looked under the bed, there was no one there.
- So not here. Well
10 minutes passed and the whole room was upside down. Sabo searched even in the most obvious places and was always hanging around next to the closet. He was stretching the pleasure. He wanted to enjoy their game as long as possible.
- You know, Luffy, in movies, villains often ignore the closet and thus cannot catch their victim, and she was under their noses.
Maybe I should check it out, too?
“Oh, no! ”
And now, standing in front of the closet, Luffy could only pray.
But luck wasn't on his side today.
And now, opening the cabinet doors in front of him, he was sitting in the corner.
The last thing he heard was a short:
- Oh, I found you!
