TITLE: BURNING FOR YOU

AUTHOR: mrredrum

PAIRING: LuffyxChopper…ZoroxSanji, FrankyxRobin, UsoppxKaya in the background…

WARNING: PG

NOTES: Chopper is in the mouth of extinction if he's decide to "settle in" with Luffy…My very much thank you for my amazing beta-er kakairupowns-san for the beta. Thank you.

"But Zoro and Sanji have already done it!" the little reindeer doctor shouted. "And so have Franky and Robin! And Usopp is always talking about Kaya! I'm the only one who hasn't yet!" Despite the cook's shout of denial, Chopper continued his complaint.

"Ah! But I'm sure someday you'll have someone special to share that with, Doctor-san…" Robin tried to calm him down and convince him, totally ignoring the cook, who was now in crying-mode, spouting that his 'precious Robin-chwan' had betrayed him with that shitty tin-man.

"Robin is right, Chopper. It's much better if you wait for the right time first. And if that special person is with you at that time, and you and your lover decide to do it, it will be amazing for both of you." Nami gave the little reindeer her own advice.

"Nami-swan is so wise! It's an honor for me to be you're special person, my mellorrineeee!" This time, Sanji twirled on his toes. Everyone still ignored him.

"… But… but, I'm short, Nami! How can I find my match?" the doctor's face was screwed up in worry.

"Well, I'm sure that someday you'll find a solution." Now the navigator felt sorry for her nakama. Aw, that's too bad; he won't ever have sex…

"What 'solution'? Will it taste good?" Their captain suddenly showed himself, his mouth watering as he was no doubt thinking about some new kind of meat.

"It's nothing, Senchou-san. Doctor-san here is a little confused, because he can't find someone on the crew to be his sex partner because of his short body." Robin explained.

"You're too straightforward, woman! I don't think Luffy understands this kind of stuff yet!" Zoro barked at her, immediately ducking away from a kick, and then ignoring Sanji who was shouting that the marimo should prepare for death for being so impolite to a lady.

"Oh! But I believe that our captain truly does understand. Am I right, Senchou-san?"

Everyone looked at Luffy, totally ignoring their cook who was now, with a dark aura emanating from his body, sulking in one of the corners of the deck close by.

"Yeah! I do, Robin!" the rubber-boy said, his smile widening.

Zoro was in shock. Nami too. As well as Usopp, after them. Franky and Brook just laughed like mad, only stopping to declare the news "interesting".

Luffy walked over to Chopper, and wrapped his rubber arms around the little reindeer body. "Oi, don't worry Chopper… I can be your sex partner. Just let me change myself into Gear Third. One of the aftereffects of that move is that I'll be really short, like you. I'm sure we can fit! Besides, I'm your captain, and it's my duty to try and do what's best for my nakama." As he spoke, the young captain dragged Chopper away towards the boys' bunkroom.

"Ah! That doesn't make me happy, bastard!" Was everyone heard, before the door closed fully, leaving almost everyone frozen in the moment.

The click of a lighter could be heard; the only sound to break the silence.

"Hn...I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm not in the mood to cook reindeer tonight. After Luffy finishes with him, what with the heat generated with his Gear Third and all, what's left of our doctor will only be reindeer meat, you know… Well, I suppose I need to prepare a dessert to go with it, anyway…" Sanji spoke calmly, letting the cigarette smoke stream out.

This time, no one ignored him… right before it became a mad rush to the bunkroom.

"LUFFY! WAIT! DON'T DO ANYTHING TO CHOPPER!!" They yelled in-sync...
