Ch. 7 - Feelings

POV ~ Portgas D Rouge

TUTUM ~ TUTUM ~

Rouge - 'I need to get away but ...'

Rouge's body wanted to move away, but not her heart.

This was much stronger than what she felt for Gol D Roger, the scent emanating from Luccyan's body made her body and soul tremble.

Rouge was not stupid or stupid, she knew what that feeling meant.

She just didn't know she could feel it again after Gol D Roger's death.

Make no mistake she was happy to feel it again, it made her more alive.

END POV ~ Portgas D Rouge

From the moment Rouge started looking at him with those eyes, Luccyan understood what was going on.

But when she started to smell it, and get closer and closer, her heart started to race.

That is very dangerous

TUTUN ~ TUTUN ~

Inch by inch, Rouge came closer.

Until it fell on your chest.

It made Luccyan's heart jump, he himself didn't know if it was joy or anything else.

[Ding ...]

Looking at the new window that appeared in front of him, some doubts were satisfied.

Luccyan had asked Rouge what day, month and year it was, but even though he knew it.

It would not help you at all, what would help you was to know what the biggest events have happened recently.

He could ask her that question, but given his previous answers, it would be a little contradictory.

Now looking at Rouge Status, Mother and Widow, he knew that Ace was already born and Gol Do Roger had already been executed by the navy.

But Ace being born, wasn't Rouge supposed to be dead?

On the wiki that Luccyan saw in his past life, Rouge had committed suicide after Ace was born to protect him.

There was no way he could ask that directly, but there was another way for him to get that information.

Looking at Rouge on his chest Luccyan asked.

"Rouge, why are you hurt"

Rouge - "How do you know I'm hurt, Luccyan"

Rouge was curious, the only ones who knew she was injured were the Fishmen and the other prisoners.

But since she had been close to Luccyan since he arrived, so she knew that no one had told him that.

"Well, as you saw before, I have some special abilities, and one of them allows me to see if anyone is hurt."

Rouge - "I see, so it was like this"

Rouge now knew how he discovered his injuries.

Rouge - "I actually had a lover, but he died."

Rouge - "He had many enemies, so to protect our son, I left him as a very close friend to us, and tried to kill myself to erase the tracks."

Rouge - "I took a ship to the great sea, so ..."

Rouge stopped talking, as it seemed to be difficult for her.

"You do not need to say another word."

Luccyan hugged his back, in an act of comfort.

[Affection: +10]

Rouge didn't know why, but she wanted to say the rest to luccyan.

Did she trust him? It was not that because they had just met a few hours ago.

It was more like her trying to prove that she was no longer in any relationship.

Why? She knew.

Rouge - "But after throwing myself into the sea, so that a beast devours me, I just managed to almost drown."

As she spoke, she started to shake, making Luccyan hug more tightly.

[Affection: +20]

Rouge - "In my moment of near death, the Fishmen appeared and put me on their ship."

To be continued...

N / A: [¹] Her age was set according to her appearance, as I had searched on several wiki's but nothing related to her age was said.

[²] This is also true for her skills as she was never said to be a warrior, so it is assumed that she was just a housewife, so her skills are related to that.
