Ace And Luffy Handshake 소설 & 이야기

Thankfully neither noticed as all they could see in that moment were each other. Kagami and Izanagi's following exchange was something hard to describe. Like they held each other's hands as if they were going to arm wrestle but pulled each other into a side hug and patted each other's sides then separated and did something weird hand-slapping, fist bump sequence. I had seen many different kinds of secret handshakes back in America, and every time it seemed magical. How do they remember all the steps? "Did you eat already?" It was as if Kagami remembered me then.

"Safe journey back." Winter and I hug. Not a quick hug. Not a casual goodbye hug. A long, tight, "I-almost-lost-you-and-I'm-going-to-squeeze-you-until-you-can't-breathe" kind of hug. I might cry. I'm definitely going to cry. Damn it. When we finally pull apart, Ace steps forward. I immediately stick out my hand for a handshake, keeping my dignity intact. "Handshake, please." He looks at my hand, smiles, completely ignores it, and pulls me into a hug anyway.

Less mocking now. “Enjoy your evening,” she said before drifting away. The terrace slowly regained its rhythm. Music swelled. Laughter resurfaced. But something fundamental had changed. Ace turned fully toward me and extended his hand again. “Dance.” It wasn’t a command this time. It felt like a reclaiming. I placed my hand in his. As he drew me close once more, the whispers that followed weren’t skeptical. They were wary. Respectful. He rested his forehead lightly against mine for the briefest second, a gesture so intimate it felt stolen from a private world.

The man had charming blue eyes while Lu had grey. Different colors of tattoo paint the back of both hands up to his sleeves and open neck. Alita assumes they might as well fill his chest and back. He extended his left hand for a handshake and Lu offered the same hand. It was then she realized that she haven't seen Lu's bare hands before. It's either he has gloves on them like now or she never noticed them at all. "I didn't expect to see you," the man said "At least not now" Lu's expression remain clueless, he just let the man shake his hands and moved a step back after the long handshake.

Jess asked hitting me in the shoulders. I smiled without any response, as I had my focus on the man in front of me. I could feel Alexa restless in my head, and all I wanted was to see through him but I just couldn't. “This is Lucien” Jess said smiling as she had her arm crossed over his shoulders. That was quite fast… Them getting along…. “Hi!” he said stretching his hand to me for a handshake. I thought of it to be awkward but then the look from Jess made me reconsider ignoring his handshake and then I clapped hands with him.

The weight of experience bore down on them, but in that moment, there was a shared understanding that the younger generation was poised to make its mark. A subtle grin played on Sebastian's face as he extended his fist for a fist bump, a gesture laden with camaraderie and mutual respect. The touch of their fists echoed not just a physical connection but an unspoken pact—a promise to each other and to themselves that they were ready for the challenge ahead.

MR. WYNNFOR, who was still handsome in his early fifties, smiled and extended a hand on me. "Nice meeting you, hija." He also took the liberty to shake hands with my brother. And Fabio did the same gesture. After the latter shook hands with Shaun, he turned to me and asked my hand. Still shocked, it took me a bit long before I accepted it. Soon as I did, electricity gushed through my veins when our skins touched. D*mn it.

he said as he stretched his hand towards me. What was with these people and wanting a handshake? I thought to myself as I stared at the hand and back at the man it belonged to. “I’d prefer not to do that,” I said, rubbing my hand on her arm while placing a kiss on her head. “And the distrust continues,” he said with a nervous chuckle as he stepped away. “My Luna caught the eyes of the strongest alpha. It must be something useful,” I said as I pointed out two fingers to him, hailing him in the most masculine of ways I could.

“Em-” “Also, how can you decide this for us? Even if you were a monster. You can’t decide what I deserve or not all by yourself. How dare you question the Moon Goddess pairings,” I interrupt him. Moving my hand up, I reach his neck slowly and finally lay my hand on his cheek. He leans into me automatically, closing his eyes. I can feel Jax’s purrs vibrate through me and my heart does a backflip at it. Ace seems to enjoy the sparks erupting at our touch as much as his wolf and I wait just until the sparks start stinging to move my hand back away.

Lucy's voice, laced with a hint of nostalgia, reached my ears, and I forced a polite smile. "Roman, you haven't changed a bit," she said, her words laden with memories. Roman, ever the diplomatic Alpha, greeted her warmly, extending his hand. "Lucy, it's been a long time. You're welcome here." I watched as Roman's hand met hers in a handshake that spoke of a history I couldn't comprehend. It was not just physical contact but a connection that transcended the present. They were sharing a moment that, until recently, had been locked away in the vaults of memory.
