Whenever Luffy lost his memories or had them back, there was always an important place in his heart for the witch. Bothering (y/n) with hugs had been a habit, regardless of filling energy or simply the small captain just wanted to be in his sister's embrace.

(Y/n) was Luffy's adopted sister although she's more like a mother since she took him under her wings. The straw hat boy wasn't the type to think complicatedly, he spent his childhood time with her, enjoying her nurture and spoils. It's not an overstatement to say the witch knew him better than he knew himself. However, Luffy did not know much about (y/n) apart from anything she showed him. But she told him not to worry, just always be carefree and joyful as he already is. The straw hat boy had yet to disobey her when she gave him advice, he liked her because she would help him relax, played with him and made his favorite food. In Luffy's mind, (y/n) was a good person, very very good despite how many times she told him she was not.

It's hard to blame him, the witch had raised him since he was 6, more than the hard time he'd spent with Garp or the short time he lived with Ace and Sabo. (Y/n) also saved him many times because of the condition of his body aside from the fact that she was literally his guardian, it's her duty to keep him from danger.

Luffy loved the witch with all his mind and heart that it would be uncomfortable to keep distant from her - due to lack of energy or he just couldn't bear to be away from her.

Everytime (y/n) and Luffy appeared together, it was no surprise to see the rubber boy clung to the witch like a koala. No matter if she was in human form or black cat form, Luffy just loved hugging her although the cat form was smaller and easily handled, bonus fluffy.

(Y/n) disliked the sun, everybody knew that but Luffy always insisted on pulling her to sunbathe with him on the lion head of Sunny. The witch was unwilling but how could she say no to those bright cute puppy eyes, so she let him hug her waist and rested his head on her chest while both of them enjoyed the warmth of the big fire ball up in the sky. Out of sudden, Luffy blinked and stared at the witch, he smiled widely "Shishishi, I like (y/n) alot."

"I adore you too, kid." The witch couldn't help but smile, patting the captain's head.

"I like you this big!" Luffy spread both of his arms widely like he wanted to hug the sky.

"Then I adore you this little." (Y/n) pointed at the position of her heart "Because you are my heart and it cannot compare to the sky."

Luffy's chest was knotted with happiness and pride, his familiar smile on the wanted poster appeared in his feature "You're cheating~ how can I reply to that?"

(Y/n) smirked, she brought her hands up to pinch both sides of Luffy's soft cheeks, gently pulled him close to her face "Then you don't have to. Besides, I don't play fair, little one."

The sudden drop in her tone made it sound hoarse and attractive surprised Luffy. He was not prepared for that, now his face was all red like a tomato. He confusingly tried to get away from her claws on his cheeks for keeping him so close and caused his heart to beat so fast. (Y/n) snickered but decided not to tease the small captain anymore and let go of him. Then she transformed into her black cat self and jumped down from the lion head "See you at lunch, little one."

With that the witch left, leaving a very embarrassed and intrigued Luffy who was rolling on his favorite spot of Sunny.

The straw hat boy knew (y/n) was a gentle, caring and funny sister. He also knew she was a fierce and strong fighter but never he saw this side of her, an attractive and dominant woman. A smirking and hoarse voice (y/n) was not healthy for Luffy's heart but he didn't seem to mind. If anything he was even more thrilled! He would like to be in her embrace for more experience!
