Here we are my Eri X Sanji romance fanfiction :D

I thought this pair might be an interesting one to play around with so I decided to give Eri and Sanji a try and see where the wind would blow me.

Now sit back and enjoy everyone ;)


Chapter One

She stood out front her mansion, staring down at the one thing she didn't want to see today. Sanji was at her feet, head down, begging yet again, for a date.

"How many times do I have to tell you, you idiot! I am NOT going on a date with you!" Eri exclaimed.

"But please Eri-swann!" Sanji sang, his head now up from the ground, hands clamped together and to his chest in a plea.

"Humph!"

Sanji continued to beg her, his eyes soft and deep, weeping for her attentions.

"I'll have a think about it tomorrow." She said turning around and flicking her hair out of the way.

Her butler then closed the door on him.

"That boy is quite persistent don't you think Miss." He pointed out.

"Yeah I know." Eri sighed, "That's the problem with guys. They don't know when to give up!"

"So, then you won't accept his request?"

"No, I only told him that so he would leave me alone for today. I'm busy."

"Of course, Mistress." The butler then bowed and walked away.

"Hmm." Eri thought, "It would be nice to go on a date for once, but I just don't know who I can trust... They seem to be only after pretty girls, and therefore only one thing is on their minds. Stupid Sanji." She cursed.

Eri looked back at the front door, a sorrowful look on her face. She did feel bad for treating Sanji so meanly, but what else could she do? He just wouldn't take a hint.

She walked up the stair case, her hand gently gliding along the intricately carved wooden rails.

Eri let out a sigh before opening her bedroom door.

"Oh, was that that Sanji guy again. Man, he doesn't know when to give up." Harima commented.
"Yeah I know." She replied, her voice soft and sincere as she thought of the desperate Sanji kneeling on his knees for her.

"So how is the album coming along." She suddenly piped up, a small sweet smile brightening her face.

"Oh that, well not so good." Harima admitted.

"What do you MEAN not so good?" Eri rushed over to look at what Harima had done so far. He didn't seem to know what he was doing at all. 'Stupid Harima.' She huffed in her mind.

"Let me take a look!"

Their album was due very soon and they were quite behind, the class would be angry with them if they didn't get it done tonight. They couldn't let the whole class down, it would be disgraceful!

"Here, put this one there." Eri handed a photo of Karen and Imadori to Harima.

"Oh," He said, his eye brows raised, "You mean here?" He asked placing the photo on the top left hand side of the page.

"Yes that's right." Eri smiled content with his co-operation.

'Harima isn't always that hopeless.' She thought fondly to herself.


That night after Harima went home Eri took a bath, she sat there in the steaming hot water, and her skin began to turn a little red from the heat. It was a very fancy bath room, the bath was huge and there were ferns and plants around the in ground tub. The towels were expensive and well made, very soft like silk, and the sink outside the bathroom was intricate like the staircase, decorated with organic art-nouveau designs. Everything was like heaven here.

She lifted her leg out of the water to examine if there were any hairs she forgot to shave off, when it was confirmed that there weren't any she put it back down.

She sighed, "I wonder how Sanji is doing?" She paused for a moment, a distorted look on her face. "ARH! Why am I worried about that IDIOT?!" She was so frustrated with her unusual concern for the womanizer.

"His just a dumb, stupid, APE!..."

She slumped back down into the bath; pulling her legs tight to her chest she rested her head on her knees.

'Why do I feel so horrible about lying to him earlier?' She asked herself. Eri was never like this, she would normally have no conscious when turning down some guy. Especially a womanizer like Sanji.

"I guess I'll just have to apologise tomorrow and tell him why I lied." She instructed herself.

Eri stayed in the bathtub for a while after that before getting out and started to get ready for bed.

Staring at herself in the mirror she held the towel up to her face and patted it lightly until it was dry. She then held the left side of her long blonde hair in the towel and rubbed it a bit with her hands, and then did the same to the right side.

As she lay in bed she let her mind wonder about many things. Tenma, Harima, Sanji. Before she had much of a chance to think anymore her eyes closed peacefully and she was asleep.
