2 by 4 Pairing Prompt for The Sacred and Profane

Pick a pairing from any series then write four drabbles, no longer than six sentences, inspired by objects around a room. You also don't have to use the same pairing for all four drabbles.

I don't own 'em, they're all Oda-san's.

1. Usopp x Nami

"Tell me again why we have to come along with you? I wanna go explore Water 7 with Luffy and Chopper!" Usopp grumbled as he glared balefully at Nami's accounting ledger.

"Simple - Luffy is the watchdog, and you're his keeper. Plus, when it comes to money, you're the only other person on board that I trust," she replied with a slow, sultry smirk and beri signs in her eyes.

Usopp tried not to preen, and vowed to live up to her expectations or die trying.

2. Luffy x Robin

Luffy tried to read the ancient tome while Robin was preoccupied with translating something else old and musty.

"El- Elia- Eliamen-try Shecks-All Edcat-Ion?" he stuttered, not quite able to pronounce the faded words before an arm sprouted out of his chest and put the book back in its designated space.

"It's Elementary Sexual Education," Robin whispered in his ear, a low, husky chuckle in her voice before she kissed his jaw lightly.

"You mean they already wrote a book about last night?" Luffy asked, wonder glowing in his sweet, dark eyes.

3. Luffy x Robin

Robin tried very hard not to move a muscle as Luffy's elastic arms encircled her. One spasm could cause the archaic, Oharan parchment in her trembling hands to disintegrate; one drop of salt-laden moisture could smear the ink ruinously.

While his strong fingers gently steadied her wrists and his tongue rasped away her tears, she could feel her heart quivering.

4. Usopp x Nami

"Who's the shitty idiot that stole Nami-swan's precious toothbrush?" Sanji bellowed loudly as he frantically waved an orange item over his head, thereby rousing all the males in the crew.

The owner of said toothbrush sauntered into the men's quarters, snatching it from the cook's hand while she sashayed over to Usopp, who was still cowering in his bunk.

"Sorry, hun, I took yours by mistake last night," Nami stated mischievously while she handed the sniper his lemon-colored dental tool, along with a kiss to the tip of his long nose.

Usopp blushed madly while the other men gawked at the departing navigator, then dearly wished his soon-to-be widow had a bit more tact as Sanji's flaming eye rounded on him.
