Pairing: Luffy x Sanji
Luffy quietly sat on the deck of his ship along with Zorro and Ussop; the day had gone by fairly fast for the companions. Sanji had fixed a big breakfast for all of them and now he was busy in the galley fixing them some lunch, it was just an average day for the gang.
Well except for one thing, something had been on Luffy's mind for a while now. He didn't really have anyone to talk to and tell them his problem without them laughing at him. It was a lose, lose situation, however Luffy had two options he could tell someone and get laughed at or he could just ignore it. Luffy decided he'd better go talk to someone before this problem of his ate him from the inside out.
Luffy stood up and walked over to the other side of the deck where the women sat at.
"Um Nami, Vivi can I talk to you about something?" Luffy asked as he scratched the back of his neck
Nami and Vivi looked up at the boy, something was obviously on his mind. He was usually so loud and anxious he couldn't sit still, but now he was so quiet and calm.
"Sure Luffy what did you want to talk about?" Vivi asked with a smile.
Luffy bit his lip then said "well...y-you see I-I like someone but I don't know how to tell them" Luffy stammered as he kept his head low where the women couldn't see his stained visage.
"Aww that's so great who do you like Luffy?" Nami asked enthusiastically.
"Well I-I like Sanji" Luffy said as he glanced up at the two, his flushed features not going overlooked by the two.
"Aww I always knew you two would make an excellent couple Luffy" Vivi said ecstatically.
"So have you told him yet?" Nami asked with a smile.
"No I-I'm to afraid of what he might say" Luffy said with a frown.
"Luffy you'll never know unless you try" Vivi said as she placed a hand on his shoulder.
"I-I guess so, thanks you two" Luffy said as he hugged them both.
"Your welcome Luffy, but whatever he says come tell us okay were here to help" Nami said with a smile.
"Alright, I will" Luffy said a he stood up and proceeded to walked over to the galley.
Luffy walked over to the galley and slightly cracked the door enough for the cook to hear him speak, "um Sanji can I come in?" Luffy asked almost in a whisper.
"Your not getting food, you'll just have to wait for lunch like everyone else" Sanji said as he stirred the food in the pot.
"I-I don't want food I just want to talk" Luffy said biting his lip.
"Well, alright come in" Sanji said as he poured the food into a bowl then put more water on to boil.
Luffy nodded and walked inside the small galley, he walked over to the cook and stood beside him. Neither of them saying a word, the only sound that could be heard was Sanji dropping vegetables in the boiling water.
"So what did you want to talk about Luffy?" Sanji asked finally breaking the silence.
"Well I need to tell you something that's been bothering me," Luffy said as he bit his lip.
"Hmm what's that?" Sanji asked as he turned toward his friend, a frown upon his face.
"I love you" Luffy said as he turned away and waited for the worst.
Sanji didn't yell, but what he did do is something Luffy never expected him to do, Sanji raised his hand up and cupped Luffy's stained cheek. Luffy went wide-eyed, his cheeks growing darker and darker until they were a cherry red.
"Luffy do you truly love me?" Sanji asked as he pulled the boy close.
"Y-yes I do Sanji, d-do you feel the same for me as I do for you?" Luffy asked, hope in his heart.
"I do Luffy, I always have" Sanji said with a smile as he pulled the other into a soft, gentle kiss.
A/N: I'm sorry but cliffhanger, this just started off as boredom but it ended up in as a sweet and loving fanfic. I just wanted to write something with Luffy an Sanji in it, its going to get better and maybe some smex in the next chapter, if not then in the third chapter. Well just tell me what you think, all comments welcome.
