Ya know it always motivates an author to write more when you get some encouragement from reading reviews. I personally love this method! HOWEVER it won't work unless I have some reviews to review… So like I always (okay sometimes) say, R&R people! R&R! :P

Nami woke up 5 days after the Luffy incident with a massive headache. No one had had dinner the day before. In fact no one had had anything to eat considering there were only 3 chips and a teaspoon of chili powder left. And none of the crew, not even Luffy, had the heart to eat it, knowing that once they had one they would devour the rest. There wouldn't even be any crumbs left.

Franky was practically shriveled in the summer heat. They had plenty of water, but a Franky without cola is not a Franky at all. Chopper had his medicines to play with, and he sat in his room trying to come up with a cure for the crew's hunger problems. Usopp sat next to him, designing new weapons. Robin sat in the shade on deck, reading a book looking more engrossed than usual. Zoro was sleeping in the corner of the galley and Sanji was simply laying on a deck chair. With nothing better to do, it was natural that he'd have more free time. Of course, that didn't mean he had to use it productively.

Nami stretched her arms above her head, sticking her chest out in a giant yawn. She felt her forehead. No fever. I should be fine. She slipped on a lilac colored tank top and pulled on a pair of cargo shorts. She reached her hand into her desk and pulled out the flower Sanji had picked for her from the last island. Normally she wouldn't bother keeping any of his "gifts", but it was really pretty actually. She guessed he could use a little recognition today. She stuck the bright golden flower behind her ear and turned to the mirror.

"Hmm." She said aloud. "Sanji has good taste."

She spun around and pushed open the doors of her room. Sanji and Robin looked up. When she saw the hearts forming in Sanji's eyes, she quickly looked down. She checked her Log Pose and moved forward, all the while trying to remind herself that this was for his sake. To make him happy. And obviously he was happy. Or more like giddy, she thought, rolling her eyes while half-grinning.

"Nami-swan! You have decided to wear the flower I've given you! It makes you look even more utterly divine than usual, my beautiful angel!" He swooned, dancing his wiggle-dance around her.

Nami walked over to the side of the ship, looking up at the clouds. Her headache was still banging against her head but she had a job to do. She checked the Log Pose and made sure they were on course. Without moving her head, she looked out of the corner of her eye and scanned for Sanji. He was now wiggle-dancing around Robin, while she obliviously ignored him and stayed glued to her book.

"Phew." She sighed a breath of relief. "I swear that guy would only make this headache worse."

"Who would?" Bounded in our favorite Strawhat captain, Luffy. The shrill of the pitch he yelled in brought Nami's headache to migraine level.

"Arrg!" She pounded his head. "Do you not see me holding my head in pain, you baka!?" She said calmly, trying not to worsen it.

"Oh. Heheh. Sorry Nami. What's wrong? You have a headache?"

"You should be. And yes I have a headache!" She shook her head. "You not making this situation easier you know?"

Luffy frowned.

"Sorry. You know what I mean, Luffy. Just please be a little quieter and find something to do. I'm sure Sanji can play with you. He seems bored." She pointed towards the door of the women's cabin, where Sanji was sitting outside of said place holding his head in his hands. Robin was inside.

"Yosh! OH SANJI!" He yelled in his shrill voice.

"LUFFY!"

"Sorry." He bounced away, stopping once to turn and look at her once her back was turned.

"One of these days…" She said quietly, shaking her head again and smiling.

Just then, Zoro stepped on deck and looked around. He had a towel slung over his arm and a weight in his left hand. The other was nearly feet away from Nami's foot. He casually walked over towards her and picked up the weight. He turned to her. "Oi. You okay?"

"Yeah." She waved her hand. "Yeah I'm fine." She kept her face in her hands. Zoro reached out and pulled her hair out of her face and felt her forehead. Nami could feel herself turning even redder than she already was. Since when does he care?

"You're hot." He stated. "Feels like a fever to me. Are you sure you're alright? It's bad enough we're half-starved in this situation, but if you get sick, you'll have no food to cure you. Medicine is only part of the process right?"

Nami looked at him and raised an eyebrow. "Well I'll have to make do I guess." She felt a smile pulling at her lips. Zoro picked up his weights, which was his original reason for coming over, and began his training. Nami thrusted herself up to sit on the railings, watching the rest of the crew.

The rest of the day went by pretty uneventfully. Like they had been doing, during the time when they would normally be having dinner they'd play poker. This time the prize was one of the three chips that were left. Though everyone shrugged it off and got ready to play, it was obvious everyone wanted that chip. Bad. Everyone played a lot more fiercely than usual. To everyone's surprise, Luffy won. Chopper, Usopp, Robin, and Franky sat and watched him devour the chip with teary eyes. Nami, Sanji, and Zoro got up before the horrible sight could reach their eyes.

"Crappy rubber-boy…" Sanji muttered, crouching down to the ground and quickly lighting up a cigarette in a corner. He knew what it was like to starve. He could tolerate starvation for weeks on end. But the others he guessed not. He really wanted someone else to win. Even if it was just a single chip.

"Honestly, it's amazing how you don't have lung cancer." Nami rolled her eyes as she walked to her room.

"Hmm?"

"Nevermind." Nami muttered almost under her breath and she closed the door. She was really dizzy and the headache from before came back. She knew soon it would turn into a migraine. She changed into a t-shirt and shorts and grabbed some medicine from Chopper's room before she jumped into bed, covering her head with the blanket.

Eh. Pretty uneventful yeah. I know. But believe me, there'll be plenty of action later! Hehe :)
