Awkward First Encounter

It was another sunny day out at sea. The sun was shining, the breeze felt great, and there wasn't a cloud in the sky. Everything was right with the world, and everything was calm, except for on the Straw Hat pirate ship.

"I can't believe you ate a whole month's supply of meat in just two days!" Nami shrieked at Luffy. "You are going to be spending the rest of the day fishing for more meat for the rest of us, got that?!" She yelled, throwing a couple of buckets and a fishing pole at him.

"Aww! Do I have to?" Luffy whined, but was quickly silenced by Nami punching him in the back of the head.

Luffy dragged the buckets and the fishing pole with him over to the railing then sat himself down on the edge and started fishing. After catching a few fish, Luffy started to get bored. He thought of something that he could do to entertain himself a little, but he wanted to make sure that he was alone before he started.

Luffy looked around behind him to see if he could see where the others were. Zoro was probably off training, Nami attending to her tangerine bushes, Sanji in the kitchen working on snacks for everyone, and Usopp was probably down in his workshop.

Luffy then quickly undid the zipper and button of his shorts and pulled out his penis. Since he was made of rubber, it would be a bit easier for him to reach the water from there. He let his dick stretch to the water, then gasped when the sea water made contact with his member. Luffy's eyes rolled into the back of his head and let out a soft moan as the gentle waves kept rocking into the tip of his hardening little friend.

"L-Luffy?!" A stuttered gasp startled Luffy out of his own little world, and caused Luffy to whip his head around to see a paled out Usopp, who was backed into the mast at the center of the ship. A fishing rod was on the ground halfway between the two teens. "Wh-What are you doing?" Usopp said, his voice still shaking, and had clearly went up an octave.

"N-Nothing!" Luffy stuttered out, deep red still dusting the captains cheeks, a mix of being caught in the act and from what he was still feeling down below.

"Bullshit!" Usopp breathed out, shaking his head, and still visibly shaking from what he just witnessed from his captain. "I'm just seeing things, that's all. It's all just in my head." Usopp kept mumbling to himself, and looking from side to side anxiously. This gave Luffy just enough time to pull his, now hard, cock out of the water, dry it off on his shirt quickly, and stuff it back into his shorts.

"Do you want to help me fish for a little while? You know, before Nami gets even more upset with me." Luffy said while zipping and buttoning his shorts back up and casting his rod back out into the ocean. Usopp looked at his captain quickly before scurrying over, getting his fishing pole, and sitting next to his captain, afraid to speak because his voice might betray him.

"Nice weather we're having, aren't we?" Usopp said after about three minutes, trying to break the awkward tension between the two of them.

"Very nice. Nami likes this kind of weather because she says that it's good for her plants." Luffy said, trying find a subject the two of them could talk about.

"S-so, w-what was it that y-you were doing exactly?" Usopp stuttered out, forcing himself to brave the words out of his mouth, but ultimately failed in trying to keep his voice steady.

"I don't really know how to explain it exactly, but the water feels nice on me whenever I do that. I don't do it that often though, so you don't really have to worry about catching me do it again, if that's what you're worried about." Luffy rushed out, turning his head away from Usopp as his cheeks lit back up with a crimson color.

"N-no, it's not that, it's just that I was curious, that's all." Usopp defended himself, then let what he had said, sink into his own ears. The two sat in silence for a few more minutes before they heard the clacking of Nami's healed sandals coming down the stairs and towards the two boys.

"Oh, Usopp, you're here?" Nami said, a bit startled by him being there. "You know you don't have to be here, seeing that you didn't eat an entire month's worth of food in two days." She said in a matter-of-factly voice.

"I want to stay here though." Usopp said, glancing back at the ginger female.

"Alright, but I'm expecting at least two more buckets full of fish by the time I return." Nami said with a small growl in her voice. She dropped the extra buckets behind the two, then continued back to the kitchen to try and bribe Sanji into carrying some tangerines down for her.

-Few hours later-

"Alright, looks like all of our buckets are full, now let's go let Nami know and see if this is enough." Usopp said, looking over at Luffy.

"Alright, but I'm starving, lets hurry up and find her." Luffy said, and almost ran Usopp over.

"W-wait." Usopp stuttered, causing the energetic teen to stop in his tracks next to the mast of the ship.

"Hm? What is it?" Luffy asked, looking back at Usopp, who now held all of his attention for the moment.

"W-well, I was kind of thinking," Usopp started, looking down at the ground and fidgeting with his fingers, "m-maybe if you ever need help with what you were doing earlier, m-maybe I could try and help y-you with it sometime. W-we could, you know, do it like an experiment of some sort." Usopp said, tripping majorly over his words. "I-if you want, that is." He said, mumbling out the last few words. This left the two teens standing there in silence for a few grueling seconds.

"Yeah, sure! That actually sounds like it'll be fun!" Luffy said with a grin, then turned back around and yelled "SANJI! I'm hungry!" Luffy screamed as he ran to the kitchen after grabbing two buckets in hopes of getting fed.

Usopp was standing there, by the raining, with his eyes open wide, beat red cheeks, and his jaw on the floor from the answer that Luffy just gave him. Then, slowly, he slowly started to smile again, and his eyes beginning to work again. He quickly grabbed the other two buckets of fish and ran after Luffy into the kitchen. And, for once, Usopp couldn't wait to try his experiment.
