Winning Over Trafalgar.
"I don't wanna drink with Eustass-ya."
Law's response is somewhat expected but still draws a soft huff from Kyo's lips, his tone has no real emotion to it at this point, he's just being stubborn for the hell of it.
Her pale hand gently sliding underneath the hem of his hoodie despite her mild frustration with him, her fingertips caressing his abs as she lays her head against his chest, subtly peeking up at his face - although from this angle, all she can really make out is the annoyed frown engraved into his features. "Come now, Law..."
"No."
She knows she doesn't have much time to convince him since he'll be leaving soon, he intends on getting home to Bepo for the night; the only reason he has ended up in her bed is so he can lounge with her until she falls asleep.
He likes to cuddle with her until she eventually drifts off, not that he would ever admit to such a thing out loud.
Fortunately for him, she doesn't plan on being awake for too much longer, her father had very kindly gifted her a new duvet set for her birthday; the fabric is extremely soft and the design is black with white skulls, considering her old sheets were rather unclean, she wasted no time in changing them.
Now she looks forward to sleeping in the new ones for the first time but, she must convince this doctor to have drinks with a certain brute beforehand.
"Your presence can't be any worse for him than Doflamingo's was." She playfully jests before pressing a light kiss to his goatee, earning a small grunt in return, she knew convincing him would be difficult but this is beyond a joke.
"No way, Kyo-ya."
"It's just a single drink."
Her claim only seeming to bother the raven however, his eyebrow noticeably twitching as a sigh pushes itself past his lips. "Why does Eustass-ya's feelings matter so much to you suddenly?" His voice carries a slight implication with it, an implication that makes her skin crawl as a grimace breaks out across her face.
"Oh please, he can choke on his misery for all I care." She bluntly states with a particularly scathing tone, though judging by the small smirk that tugs on Law's lips, one would assume he did this on purpose in an attempt to discourage her from nagging him any further over the matter - not that it has worked at all. "My concern lays with Lotte, this means a great deal to her...besides, I can empathize with her situation." It's only during this final sentence that Law's expression changes, his brows softening as his smirk slowly fades.
Her and Lotte are certainly in the same boat here and by extension; so are him and Kid.
The girl pressing yet another kiss to the surgeon's goatee in an attempt to pamper him a little more before continuing. "I would give anything to make you feel welcome in this family, Lotte only wants the same thing for her lover...can we really begrudge her of that?" It's obvious that Law still doesn't want to go for a drink with Kid but if he was to crack, it would be in this moment; Kyo noticing this rather quickly as her free hand cups his cheek, the other still stroking his abs as her eyes lock with his own, a delicate smile gracing her lips. "Please...~?"
Come on, Trafalgar...
The incoherent grumble that escapes his lips is enough of an answer for her, another sigh sounding from him before he finally crumbles completely. "When?" The short question harbours many audible emotions; irritation being the main one, followed closely by defeat and exhaustion.
"I believe Lotte said tomorrow evening." Kyo calmly chimes, a flicker of satisfaction flaring deep inside as she presses a subtle kiss to the tip of Law's nose, not many can sway this man, she can't help but feel somewhat prideful by achieving such a feat.
"One drink, Kyo-ya." He sternly grunts while his golden orbs bore into her own, despite his cranky tone however he still wraps an arm around her waist, unknowingly making her heart flutter inside her chest in the process. "I won't be staying there for more than an hour either."
"Mhm." The redhead still struggling to contain her grin as the doctor pouts beneath her, leaning in to press another kiss to his cheek before she discreetly whispers into his ear. "That's all well and good, but my only concern is strip clubs."
It's really the only rule she has for the surgeon since she trusts him in every other aspect, usually she'd trust him not to attend such clubs also but he'll be hanging out with Kid and she doesn't trust that one at all.
Though little to her knowledge; Kid has also been forbidden from strip clubs and if he were to take Lotte's cousin there, the brunette would very quickly find out and will go absolutely berserk - something that even Eustass Kid himself would like to avoid.
A small shiver noticeably running up Law's spine as Kyo's breath tickles his ear, his fingertips gently digging into the skin of her hip on impulse as he rasps a low; "I have no need for those kinds of places." The little comment sending her heart into overdrive, though she hides it well.
"I should hope not." She playfully murmurs before shuffling back down to his chest, burying her face into his pecs, using him as both a pillow and a cover for her slightly pinkened cheeks while her fingertips lazily trace little patterns into his skin, her heavy eyelids at long last finally sliding shut as she nestles herself into his side.
All she gains in response is a small scoff, no arguments and no discussion, though she's grateful for that considering her tiredness.
It's only when she starts to drift into her slumber, she vaguely hears him retort.
"...You know you're the only woman I look for in a crowd, Kyo-ya."
Interestingly, he isn't bluffing. He came to find her during the social networking event back when they were merely courting and then again at the pool party during her birthday, there was many half-dressed women hanging around and most of them were beautiful but from what she can recall, his eyes rarely left hers and when they did, it was never to ogle anyone else.
It would seem that loyalty really isn't a problem with Law...
