Hancock's heart was pounding in her chest, the heat in her cheeks spreading to her whole face and an unkown feeling spreading in her stomach. It felt as if a tousand insects were crawling inside her.

What was this feeling?

The icy blue eyes off the woman were a stark contrast to her tan skin but it made her even more beautifull in Hancock's eyes.

The woman was talking to Luffy with an amused smile playing on her lips, a certaine softness in her eyes while looking at the young Captain. Luffy was laughing loudly while being patted on the head like child.

He turned around, as if sensing Hancocks presence and grinned.

"HAMMOCK!" He yelled with clear joy in his voice. He sounded like he was seeing an old friend after a long time or a relative that he hadn't seen in a while.

He ran at her and pulled her into a tight full-body hug.

'How strange', the Empress thought to herself. Normally her heart would be pounding by now and she would imagine their wedding and future children together but right now she just felt... strange.

Not in a bad way.

More in a way that she couldn't help but hug the small body in her arms back, happy to just be near him, but not being able to take her eyes off the woman that was also making her torwards them with much more elegance.

"Good evening. You must be the famous Snake Empress, Boa Hancock... pleased to make your acquaitance." she paused for a moment, her hawk-like eyes mustering Hancock up and down as if she didn't quiet know what to make off her.

"Im Nico Robin"

And Hancock couldn't help but to taste the name on her tounge, to feel the way it rolled over her tounge.

"Nico Robin" she spoke out loud, trying to not show too much emotion.
