"Luffy! You're scaring the fish!" Waved Usopp as he, Chopper and Luffy were fishing by the side of the ship. "How can I fish when you keep scaring them!" he scolded Luffy as his fishing rod swayed.

"Ack! Usopp, your line isn't even in the water!" noted Chopper in surprise at Usopps foolish mistake.

"Ehhh!? Really!?" exclaimed the shock Usopp as he stood up and examined his pole. "Umm I mean really! Of course! I was fishing for flying sort of fishing like there were in Skypia!" he explained as he took a cool pose

'Wow really!?" admired Chopper. "B-but wouldn't that mean that those fish would only be in Skypia if they were Skypia fish?" wondered Chopper aloud. Usopp panicked, flustered for a moment.

"Y-yeah that's right but the fish we caught there were really yummy so I wanted to check if there were any here. Right Luffy?" he asked as he glanced at Luffy.

"Right!" nodded Luffy, drooling as he remembered what the fish tasted like. "Yummy and big!"

"Oooooo. I want to taste them!" declared Chopper as he put his hooves together, imagining how yummy they are.

"R-right! I thought so! That's why I was checking!" announced Usopp, trying to seem heroic and not like he had just committed an honest an stupid mistake.

"You're so nice Usopp! To think of the whole crew!" praised Chopper.

"I know I know. I'm so great for thinking of you."

"You're just an idiot who didn't check where your line was." muttered Zoro, who was nearby, sitting on the floor and had heard everything they had just said.

"EHHHHH!? You were lying!?" exclaimed Chopper surprised.

"Well, I umm.." Usopp struggled to come up with an explanation. "Zoro, why'd you have to say that! We're crew members aren't we!?" he scolded

Luffy kept grinning and laughing as he kept looking over at the fish. "OOOOOOOOOO that one looks so yummy!" Luffy exclaimed as he watched the fishes pass by, ignoring the rest of the argument "Sanji how about some meat over here!" called Luffy as he peered over to Sanji who emerged from the kitchen with a cup of tea and bite-sized cakes. "You already ate some meat!" Sanji exclaimed as he walked towards Robin and served her. "Robin chwan, " exclaimed Sanji with love. "You didn't eat much this morning. Nami Swan here's some snacks for you too" He placed the food between the girls and fangirled over them.

Robin smiled and happily sipped her tea. "Thank you, Sanji." Said Nami as she took a bite out of the cakes and mmmm'd at how delicious they were! Sanji was the best cook! It had been a few days after the incident with the CP9 and she just couldn't believe how the straw hats had always been behind her even Crocodile had abandoned her when he was defeated. Crocodile, the strong and invincible seeming man who had ruled Alabasta. If she wasn't safe there then where would she be?

She had spent most of her life fleeing but now she had them, the crew. She cherished how they seemed like a family, cheerfully fighting and spending time together. Luffy had accepted her and given her the peace of mind that she craved. She had grown to love the special young boy.

"Luffy would you like a bite?" she offered him as she held up a tiny cake in her hand.

"Mm? Cake?" exclaimed Luffy as he hurried over. "Yes! AAh!" he opened his mouth and Robin fed him the cake. She was happy to see him happy.

"Mm nom nom." Luffy happily ate it.

Sanji looked broken-hearted as he watched them both. "R-robin chwan why don't you feed me?" he pointed toward his mouth and had a look of sadness; his expression was that of a sad puppy.

"Ah." Robin looked a bit surprised and took another bite-sized cake; she couldn't say no to such a sweet request and the crew had all fought to rescue her. "Here you go Cook san." Sanjis eyes glittered with hearts as he opened his mouth to eat the cake from Robins' hand.

-Robin chwans cake given to me with all her love.- swooned Sanji as he grew more excited as he grew closer and closer to getting fed.

"Chomp chomp chomp." Everyone froze. Luffy was eating the cake that Sanji had expected! "That was tasty." He sighed happily and then proceeded to gobble all of the little cakes in the tray.

"…..y….you…" Sanji started shaking in fury as he looked back from Robin to Luffy. Flames of anger started to overcome him. "You…..YOU STOLE THE FOOD THAT ROBIN CHWAN WAS OFFERING ME SO – glomp."

"That'll be 200 berries." Said Nami as she put her fork back in its place. Sanji changed from angry to happy and cheerful. "NAMIII SWAN! Fed so wonderfully by Nami swan omnomnom." He melted.

"Robin feed me some more!" pleaded Luffy as he opened his mouth and eyed the rest of her food ravenously.

Robin smiled and fed him more. "Hai Hai captain kun."

-He's like a cute animal, soothing to have around.- she admired as she watched him. -I don't know how he suddenly turns out to be so dependable though.- she wondered as she remembered how he had defeated Lucci.

"Omnomnom." Luffy ate happily. He laid his head on her lap and kept nomming. "More."

"Captain kun you're gonna get sick if you eat that way," Robin said as she fed him worriedly and pet his head.

"But it's comfortable." He pouted. "Besides everything tastes better when you feed me. Even meat tastes even better." He said as he grinned at her with his innocent and determined eyes. Robin gasped, surprised by what he had just said. They may have sounded like silly words but these were actually a basic I love you sort of phrase coming from him. Robin felt her heart melt. This meant she was special to him. This was now the place where she truly belonged, beside him, the man who would become the king of the pirates.

The days were full of adventure, heart filled days and happiness.
