This is a bit of a sequel... It is a sequel to the Chapter 'Dishes Duty' in Helping Hands but it is not necessary to have read it to get this... The basic happenings of it was Zoro and Robin getting caught having sex in Sanji's kitchen while Zoro was on dishes duty. I hope you enjoy. And I do not own One Piece

The Curse of Dishes

Rating: T

Nami slowly filled the sink watching as more and more bubbles appeared in the soapy water. Once the sink was full she shut off the tap and started filling it with the dirty dishes. Normally she worked quickly wanting to get the mandatory chore done but tonight her mind was full and she appreciated this time to herself.

She could hear the sounds of Luffy singing some sung he had made up that afternoon.

Her thoughts drifted to a certain incident with dishes a few weeks ago. Zoro hadn't been told to do them since, Nami suspected Sanji wasn't going to leave him alone with Robin in his kitchen for quite awhile. Nami felt her face heat us as she thought of Robin and the sounds she had made. The breathy moans still echoed in her head causing some interesting dreams the past several nights. As she rinsed off a plate she wondered if she would ever or even could make those sounds outside of her dreams.

Just then the door to the kitchen swung open startling Nami making her drop the late she was holding. It hit the floor with a crash and shattered into tiny several pieces.



"Nami why'd you drop the plate? Are you okay?" Luffy asked from where he had stopped, not too surprisingly, by the fridge.

"Err... you just startled me that's all" Nami stammered, she could only imagine how red her face was at the moment.

"Are you sure? Your face is very red. You don't have a fever again do you?" Suddenly Luffy's hand had stretched and was feeling her forehead, concerned for her health.

Luffy's concern touched her but Nami reminded herself firmly that it was just a captain's concern for his navigator. However that didn't stop her heart from beating faster at his touch, it didn't even quell that ever-present glimmer of hope. Luffy's hand slid to caress her cheek his eyes full of concern peering at her. When had he moved? She willed herself to not lean into his touch.

"No I'm fine... it's from the water" Nami tried to lie but was surprised at how husky her voice came out.

Luffy's hand slid behind her neck is thumb rubbing her jaw lightly. Nami swallowed hard, her heart was racing. This time she couldn't help but lean into his soothing touch. She looked into his onyx eyes and was surprised to see them clouded with passion. The look he gave her was like one of her dreams. The look coupled with her imagination raised goosebumps all over her. The tip of her pink tongue darted out to moisten her suddenly dry lips.

"Luffy..."

The rest of her sentence was lost as his mouth closed over hers. He used the hand around her neck to pull her deeper into the kiss his other hand snaking around to rest at the small of her back. Heat radiated from where he touched her spreading through her like a forest fire. She flung an arm around his neck bringing him closer to her. His tongue flicked across her lips and she gladly opened them to him. He tasted of meat and strawberries that had been their 

dessert that evening. He also tasted of something else, Nami couldn't quite put her finger on it and she decided it was something uniquely Luffy. She let out a small moan, the taste was intoxicating.

After awhile they pulled back, oxygen having become an annoying necessity. Nami was breathing heavily, she couldnt believe she was actually here kissing Luffy. He smiled at her and it was a smile she had never seen before. IT was full of promise and love and it warmed her from the inside out. She pulled him back in for another kiss while her hands moved to undo the buttons of his vest.

Up on the deck Robin sat with her back to the mast. In one hand she held a book and the other lazily played in Zoros short green hair. He slept with his head in her lap while she read. However at the moment her mind wasnt on the book she was holding. Robin had noticed the captain go running in to the kitchen awhile ago and he had yet to reappear. She smiled softly to herself thinking that maybe the navigator's dreams were coming true after all. That was when she noticed Sanji walking towards his beloved kitchen.

"Mr Cook?" she called out desperately.

"Yes Robin-chwan?" he responded sweetly

"Where are you going?" she asked her mind unable to come up with a better stall.

"To the kitchen to see if Nami-san needs any help"

"I think she's fine. You probably don't want to go in there." Robin said cautiously.

"Why? You two are safe out here"

"Hey watch your mouth" Zoro growled having woken up.



Sanji just glared at him then turned towards the kitchen again. The more Robin tried to stop him the more he wanted to go. Robin and Zoro got up and followed him, Robin still trying to convince him not to. However nothing she said stopped him and he swung the door open.

"Nami-swaa- aaahhhh. Not again!" he called out "m-my Nami-swan. My k-ki-kitchen..." he trailed off helplessly.

As if in repeat of the other week Sanji once again collapsed to the floor amidst moans and twitches. Zoro looked over at her with an eyebrow raised in question to what was going on in the kitchen. Just then a breathy moan escaped the kitchen.

"Ahh Luffy!" Nami's voice carried out sensually.

Zoro's mouth dropped open and Robin just smiled. She slid her hand into his and pressed a kiss into his cheek.

"It seems that dishes duty have developed a strange curse" she chuckled.
