Hi there! So here's my first LawLu fic in SMS, hope you'll like it. I've been inspired by one of my own fic in Supernatural I've re-read on ff, and my friend's ZoSan fanfiction too on AO3, Fafsernir, whose title is the exact same as mine. Okay, I stole it from her, but honestly it was the best one to give to a fic like this. And if you like ZoSan go read her fic, her ship is adorable from Zoro's pov!
Anyway, this story is inspired by the prompt "wrong number" where someone sends a text to the 'wrong' person (well that's what they think eheh). The indication "[...]" shows that more than two minutes happened between their texts, it also can be hours but it's rare.
Hope you'll like it, enjoy!
WRONG NUMBER
"Need you at the hospital ASAP" – Unknown number
"Right now? Why? What's wrong?" – Luffy
"Just hurry!" – Unknown number
"Wait, who is this?" – Luffy
"Seriously! Law!" – Unknown number
"Law? What Law?" – Luffy
"Trafalgar Law. We've been friends for ten years, remember? Now stop joking and get your ass here!" – Unknown number
"I don't remember you. What do you look like? Are you one of Ace's friends?" – Luffy
"... No. Aren't you Bepo?" – Unknown number
"Nah, I'm Monkey D. Luffy! Nice to meet you!" – Luffy
"He gave me a wrong number, sorry if I disturbed you." – Unknown number
"No prob!" – Luffy
"So did you manage to contact your friend?" – Luffy
"Excuse me?" – Torao
"Bepo?" – Luffy
"Oh, yeah." – Torao
"Great! And how was it?" – Luffy
"What?" – Torao
"At the hospital!" – Luffy
"What do you mean?" – Torao
"Was it bad? Did somebody get hurt?" – Luffy
"Are you really interested in this?" – Torao
"Yeah, why not? I almost ran into a hospital to help you even though I had no idea what it was about!" – Luffy
"Do you honestly expect me to believe you were ready to give you time for someone you don't know in the wrong hospital?" – Torao
"Well as long as they are my friends, I don't mind and would do anything to help them. Except if it's about meat." – Luffy
"Meat? What does it have to do with all of this?" – Torao
"Meat has everything to do with anything." – Luffy
"Are you mocking me?" – Torao
"Nope." – Luffy
[…]
"Whatever." – Torao
"Did someone die?" – Luffy
"Nobody died. Why would you want someone to die?" – Torao
"I don't know, that's a kind of stuff which can happen in a hospital!" – Luffy
"Nobody died." – Torao
"Good!" – Luffy
"Are you a doctor?" – Luffy
"Or do you have sick friends there?" – Luffy
[…]
"I'm a surgeon, and my friends are fine." – Torao
"I'm glad." – Luffy
"Why do you care? We don't know each other." – Torao
"Of course I know you, you gave me your number and your name, Torao!" – Luffy
"Wait, what? No, it was a mistake. And my name is Law, not 'Torao'." – Torao
"Torao is good too." – Luffy
"Okay, nevermind." – Torao
"Boreeeeeed." – Luffy
"Wait, seriously? It's been days, and you still have my number?" – Torao
"Well, all my friends are busy right now, and I'm bored." – Luffy
"What do you expect me to do about it? Are you using me as an entertainment?" – Torao
"I am not using you, I am texting you!" – Luffy
"Usually, you text your friends, not strangers. Unless it is one of your habits." – Torao
"Nah, and I told you: my friends are busy." – Luffy
"Text them and they will answer when they'll be free again." – Torao
"But I like talking to you." – Luffy
"I have no idea what the hell this means. This conversation is nonsense." – Torao
"Shishishi, Nami often says that too!" – Luffy
[…]
"What are you doing?" – Luffy
"Torao?" – Luffy
[…]
"Why do you keep talking to me? I don't even know why I am answering." – Torao
"Maybe because you're bored too." – Luffy
"I have tons fo things to do, don't go thinking you and I are the same." – Torao
"Hey I do stuff too! But I am not really good as waiter so Sanji takes care of most things." – Luffy
"Right. Sorry, didn't want to seem impolite." – Torao
"It's okay. So what are you doing?" – Luffy
"I was reading, phone opened in case of I'm called by the hospital for an emergency, when I got your texts." – Torao
"What kind of doctor are you really?" – Luffy
"People call me the Surgeon of Death. Enough for you?" – Torao
"Pretty smart! Zoro would love a nickname like this for sure." – Luffy
"Do everyone in your friends have weird name like this?" – Torao
"Depends on what you call a 'weird' name, Torao." – Luffy
"Nevermind. I have to leave you, I need to take a nap." – Torao
"Good night!" – Luffy
"It's the end of the morning, not even noon, Luffy-ya." – Torao
"I know! But when you say 'good morning' or 'good afternoon', you really don't imply sleep in it, do you?" – Luffy
"True." – Torao
"See yah!" – Luffy
"Luffy. Did you seriously ate everything we had in the fridge?" – Zoro
"No?" – Luffy
"Even by text I can tell you're lying." – Zoro
"I'm not! There are some vegetables left!" – Luffy
"Whatever, I'm going out to buy some food. Wherever you are, don't come with me. I don't have enough money for your meat and I refuse to borrow money from Nami again." – Zoro
"Don't bother, Sanji's invited us for the evening with Usopp and Chopper!" – Luffy
"Doesn't change the fact we'll have to feed ourselves one day." – Zoro
"Well Sanji cooks for us most of the time, and he doesn't mind, so I don't see the problem. I mean, it's not like your food was bad or anything, but Sanji's the best!" – Luffy
"Still, not going to rely on him for the rest of my life." – Zoro
"By the way, are you still talking to that Law-stranger?" – Zoro
"Torao? Yeah! We're friends! Why?" – Luffy
"Just asking." – Zoro
"This is about Sanji right?" – Luffy
"What does the shitty cook have to do with this?!" – Zoro
"You brought Torao up in the first place even though he didn't had anything to do with our conversation! Robin told me, it's a technique people use when they don't want to talk about something, they ask you stuff about yourself. And you're so pleased to talk about you you don't notice it. Are you relieved not to talk about Sanji, Zoro?" – Luffy
"You really should stop talking to Robin, she's putting weird ideas in your head." – Zoro
"Shishishi, I knew it!" – Luffy
"What?! There's nothing to know. I'm leaving now, see you in half an hour, I won't be long." – Zoro
"More like two hours, as you'll get lost again for sure!" – Luffy
"I know where we're living Luffy!" – Zoro
"Yeah, I know, you're improving yourself! Before it was taking you three hours to come back!" – Luffy
"Fuck you." – Zoro
"[Picture MMS]" – Luffy
"Did you just send me a pic of your fridge full of food?" – Torao
"Yeah! Zoro bought everything today!" – Luffy
"Who's Zoro already?" – Torao
"My room-mate and best friend! He's a kendo teacher." – Luffy
"Nice." – Torao
"Okay, as a doctor I have to say, this fridge is absolutely not healthy at all. Where are the vegetables? The fishes? Do you only eat meat?" – Torao
"Meat is the only thing I need!" – Luffy
"And there're cucumbers if you look on the right side, below." – Luffy
"Is it the picture or their colour is weird?" – Torao
"No, it's blue!" – Luffy
"How the fuck did you manage to make you cucumbers blue?!" – Torao
"Dunno." – Luffy
"Just throw it away if you don't want to die and buy real food already." – Torao
"Just because a cucumber doesn't have the same colour as the others you have to throw it away? That's discrimination!" – Luffy
"No, that's common sense. But go ahead, eat it if you wish to be sick." – Torao
"Zoro threw it away, he says it smelled bad." – Luffy
"You really are something." – Torao
"We'll be here around 8pm!" – Luffy
"Diner will be ready by then, thanks for telling. But you're sure? It's a bit early." – Sanji
"Zoro found Usopp in his way home, so yeah sorry!" – Luffy
"This damn moss-head. Don't forget to call, the ring is broken." – Sanji
"[Picture MMS]" – Luffy
"What the fuck is that?!" – Sanji
"A cucumber!" – Luffy
"Why the heck is your cucumber blue?!" – Sanji
"So Torao was right, it's not normal." – Luffy
"Of course not! Don't eat this shit, throw it away! And who's Torao?" – Sanji
"Zoro did it. And Torao's new friend of mine!" – Luffy
"Good luck to him." – Sanji
"What?" – Luffy
"Nothing, now go prepare yourself and be here in time or I'm giving everything to Usopp and Chopper." – Sanji
"Don't do that I'll be here!" – Luffy
"Hi there!" – Torao
"Hey!" – Luffy
"How are you doing?" – Torao
"Great! I'm at a friend's for the evening right now. What about you?" – Luffy
"Awesome. So, who are you and what are you doing in your life?" – Torao
"This isn't Torao, right?" – Luffy
"Torao? Who's that?" – Torao
"Torao... is what I call Law." – Luffy
"Oh right! Didn't read all the messages sorry – even though I'm pretty sure Law erased some. I'm- well we are– Penguin and Shachi, Law's friends. He left his phone on the bar without looking at it for a sec, couldn't help but look." – Torao
"Oh so he doesn't know?" – Luffy
"Nope!" – Torao
"We just wanted to know who he was talking to lately, as his phone always seemed to ring, at least more than usual." – Torao
"You're working with him at the hospital?" – Luffy
"Yes. And you're a waiter, right?" – Torao
"Yeah!" – Luffy
"Fuck, Law's coming back, gotta go and delete the messages. Don't tell him we talked!" – Torao
"Okay, it was nice to meet you!" – Luffy
"... What are you talking about?" – Torao
"Nothing." – Luffy
"Penguin and Shachi have been talking to you, didn't they?" – Torao
"Who?" – Luffy
"You're a very bad liar." – Torao
"I know." – Luffy
"Anyway what have they been telling you?" – Torao
"Nothing." – Luffy
"Come on, really?" – Torao
"You've got nice friends! Don't be mad at them." – Luffy
"Honestly I don't know what I'm doing here." – Torao
"You keep asking yourself that but yet, you're still answering!" – Luffy
"Right, I should block you." – Torao
"No don't!" – Luffy
"Why not?" – Torao
"Told you, I like our conversations." – Luffy
"Did you block me in the end?" – Luffy
"No." – Torao
"And you're not sleeping?" – Luffy
"Yes I am. That's why I'm replying right now. I text in my sleep. A very bad flaw of mine." – Torao
"Oh really?!" – Luffy
"... Of course not." – Torao
"Oh." – Luffy
"Did you really expect a proper answer to this 'are you sleeping' question?" – Torao
"What I meant is that it's late!" – Luffy
"I don't sleep much." – Torao
"Insomnia?" – Luffy
"Kind of." – Torao
"You?" – Torao
"Just wanted to text you before going to sleep." – Luffy
"Good, now you did it. So good night." – Torao
"Good night!" – Luffy
