Waking up the new morning, Hancock noticed straight away Luffy wasn't in her room. Her big T-shirt didn't make her feel sexy any longer...that was a night thing.
She got up and decided to put on a red robe, made of silk so soft to the touch, and her regular bunny slippers. Yes, Hancock could get used to softer materials.
She didn't even rely on Salome anymore. She glanced over at the huge snake sleeping in his bed, looking content. She let out a sigh and made her way outside.
Immediately, she went to the kitchen. Not to make breakfast, but just to see Nami and Robin.
"Whew, that festival wore me out. I couldn't get any sleep at all." Nami said, wiping her hand on her forehead. She had on a light orange silk gown, just not as silky and thin as Hancock's. Her hair was put up into a ponytail. A rather messy one.
"Haha, it was quite a nice surprise wasn't it, though?" Robin asks. She was putting in a bun. Hancock really admires Robin's hair. Not because it was the same color as hers, no, but because the way she styled it making her look amazing anywhere she went.
Robin had on a purple silk gown, that just had sleeves and was a bit more seethrough. It hugged her curves nicely. Her two strands of curly hair hanging down from her bun, brown eyes glistening. (Robin has brown eyes in the manga, but her eyes are blue in the anime. I personally think the blue looks better, but I'll stick to canon as much as I can.)
"It's a sin to look this good in the morning." Nami said. Hancock would've nodded, but she was thankful for her beauty and she didn't think of it as a sin.
"I mean, I'm obviously Gorgeous, Robin is practically glowing with perfection, and Hancock, well, you're the prettiest woman in the world. There's no one who could rival us!" Nami had just taken her seat on her high horse.
Hancock could only giggle.
"Did you see Brook's interview last night?" Hancock asked. Robin nodded.
"Haha, it kept me amused until I fell asleep. Zoro was out somewhere so I occupied myself for the time."
"And the show that came on after?"
"I didn't even think Bartolomeo had a show."
"He doesn't. He's just stupid." Hancock replied. Upon her first encounter with Bartolomeo, she thought it was adorable how he fanboyed over Luffy. Then she found out that he was Luffy's #1 fan.
That had been her first rivalry. If you think Zoro and Sanji's was bad, check this. She kept him as a statue in a public mall while he was peeing. Peeing! She initially did this by dressing up as his "Robin~Senpai" and fooling him hard.
Then as payback, he took her shampoo and filled it with red dye. Not that she looked bad with red hair, but the dye had gotten all over her body in the shower and she walked around looking like a unfortunate, yet strikingly beautiful, teletubbie.
They competed for Luffy's attention, Hancock always giving him meat while Bartolomeo would draw his attention away from her for the stupidest reasons. A piece of his shirt came off? Please!
They'd always sneer at each other from the deck. And Hancock finally sent him off with a pinky finger to his face, but she had turned around with a smile on her face.
(In case you didn't know, the pinky finger is a way of saying "Your dick is small" which would be an insult because a lot of people have seen Bartolomeo's dick out while he was peeing. 'Specially since he peed a whole lot in front of the crowds and even peed on the people while he was taking the Tonttata airlines things.)
Such fun this rivalry was.
"What show?" Nami asked.
"Brook and an interview on Pica's late night talk show." Robin answered.
"Yeah, it's literally like the most popular news. It had been on every channel. You know, the 'Soul King comes back on Pica's late night talk show 12:30 tonight?'" Hancock said. "What were you doing?"
She noticed Nami's ears get red.
"Um, maybe I was asleep. I dunno...can't remember.." Nami stuttered, eyes darting from one point of the room to the next.
Hancock inspected her.
'Eh. She's fine.'
While the three girls busied themselves with doing each other's nails and chitchatting, the boys came back. Zoro, who had some odd ass looking barrel in his arms, was face to face with Sanji, who carried nothing, but a butter knife. You could practically feel the heat between them.
Nami stood up and walked towards Sanji who instantly cowered back.
"D-did I do something?" Sanji cried out. Even Zoro looked cautious because the closer Nami walked he didn't know if it was him or Sanji she was after.
Instead, Nami grinned evilly and dragged Sanji down to the other girls who were all looking like possessed dolls.
'Payback for making me blush! Maybe you made me scream too loud last night. This could be all your fault!'
"W-What did I do??" Sanji asked, shaking on the floor.
Nami immediately changed her face back to normal. She'd just realized something.
"Jeez, it's not that fun to be evil without Usopp around...Well, girls, let's dress 'im up!" Nami walked out the room to get the makeup kits and dress racks.
"Good luck with that, Nosebleed-kun." Zoro said. "Tch, if you didn't know better now, I bet you would've been begging on your knees to do this back then, having a nosebleed all over your face."
"Shut up! Luffy help me!" Sanji yelled, his face going from traumatized to angry.
"Eh, not surprising." Sanji shrugged, seeing Luffy's absence. He started to struggle again.
Luffy had taken Zoro's barrel and left already.
"Oh, cruel, cruel world. Have mercy." Sanji asked dramatically.
"I'll come back to see our model after breakfast."
"Where do you think you're going, Marimo? I'm the one who makes you breakfast!"
"We'll improvise. Treat him well and don't mess up his nails."
"UGHH! YOU SHITTY BASTARD!" Sanji almost flames up, but when he saw his precious Nami-San returning with the racks, he looked around and realized he could damage the place and the women.
"Tch, you lost Cactus. Go play with your cardboard swords somewhere else then." Sanji had quieted down some.
"Ok-WAIT!" Zoro started, but Nami had already kicked him into the next room.
"Before I didn't know what was in that barrel so I spared you, but now that Luffy's taken it and left, you asked for it." Nami said. "Jeez it's really less fun to scold without Usopp.."
"Now." Robin said after her and Hancock's 7 minutes of silence. "Let's begin, shall we?"
So the three girls began.
"This shade looks best on him, but I just love the purple one so much better."
"No, the blue one. He looks cute!"
"No, that color is better!"
"Whatever you say..."
"Hmm, this dress or this one?" Hancock asked Sanji.
"I don't wear long dresses. Only the ones that go up to my knees to show off my beautiful legs."
"Ok then. This one."
"I'll get the wax!"
"NO! NO! AAAHHH! " Sanji let out a high pitched squeal. He soon put a handkerchief in his mouth. It didn't work. He kept screaming until the last part was stripped off when he let out this particularly high-pitched scream that was so loud it shook the palace walls.
So loud, Zoro almost choked on his sandwich. So loud, Luffy got a nosebleed. Well, he shouldn't have been digging in his nose anyway.
"Oi oi what's the big idea!" Luffy and Zoro came into the dining room. "Wow it's really not fun-."
"Without Usopp, yeah, yeah I get it." Nami cut in. "Behold my super girly boyfriend, Sanji in a dress 3.0."
Sanji stepped out of the curtains looking so embarrassed.
His bangs had been pulled back in one of those clips you see people like Mirajane Strauss and Rin Okumura wearing. They was tied with a pink bow.
Down more, Sanji's facial expression had an adorable shocked look on it. His blue eyes glistening brightly. His pink lipstick had been the perfect choice, complimenting his pink blush that was all natural. His eyeshadow was Blue and his eyeliner Smokey. His beard and growing mustache, just GONE, much to Sanji's horror.
Sanji had on a blue and pink dress. One that fit his slim build just fine. The dress has blue ruffles at the bottom and with a tight (super tight Zoro might add) middle with the pink top of it that had his shoulders exposed at the top, the sleeves clinging to the sides of them.
Luffy looked over Sanji. Even his curly eyebrow seemed fancy.
"Oh, Sanji looks pretty! Huh, Zoro? Zoro?"
"Eh...who's that?"
"Sanji."
"OH MY GOD!" Zoro said in a very Joseph Joestar way. "That idiot even has his dumb hair done. He still looks cute though, I'll give you that."
Sanji couldn't believe it. Was Zoro praising him? Or was this his way of teasing him again?
"Tch. What a girl." Zoro finished. Sanji snapped out of it.
He got up and immediately slipped on his stupid frilly socks. He had fell down like one of those pretty anime girls. Like Mikan Tsumiki. You could practically see the bubbles rotating around him.
"It's too bright!" Luffy said, laughing while shielding his eyes.
Hancock saw all three of them together again. She loved the little trios the Straw hats had even if Jinbe really didn't include himself that much. Seeing Luffy and Zoro looking down at Sanji who had just raised a hand to his mouth was priceless.
"Cute." Robin said, walking over to Sanji and snapping a picture. "Sanji, you're just too cute."
Sanji's cheek puffed up suddenly. He began looking really stubborn. He turned his head the other way.
It's not like it would've helped him anyway. She'd already gotten the photo.
"I am a gentlemanly gentleman!"
"Then what was all that talk about your beautiful legs?" Hancock asked.
"What beautiful legs? You three just bruised and stripped them."
Zoro and Luffy, who had been mesmerized by Sanji's cuteness, were now both holding their sides rolling on the floor. Yes, even Zoro. Hancock found it cute. Robin simply just kept slapping Zoro back and forth with her Hana Hana no mi ability.
Zoro's head was bruised.
"Insult my work again and I'll leave you in the middle of the next mall we go to." Robin was an artist. She wouldn't take disrespect from her own Boyfriend.
Zoro briefly shivered. When Robin had this aura to her she could be very much the devil child and not receive any credit for it.
Now, Zoro knew he wasn't the best at Directions, but it surely couldn't be that bad being left in a mall alone...right?
"You Baka lost child Marimo." Sanji said. It had been the perfect comeback for Zoro's insult earlier.
Nami quickly walked over to Sanji and pulled him up by his cheek. His cheeks were chubby and he looked like a toddler as she squeezed them. His temper tantrums wouldn't have helped this case either.
"Well, we're going to one today anyway. There's a new mall on the island I've heard. Sanji, you can go with Zoro too."
"But I don't wanna! Can't even stand the sight of that shitty marimo!" Sanji said, back on the floor rolling around at the thought of following that baka lost, too tall for his own good, marimo.
"Get up. " Zoro said. "You're making a fool of yourself. We can all see your panties."
"Huh?" At this Sanji sat right back up and went behind the curtains to change back into his clothes and wash off the makeup covering his face yelling stuff like "Oi oi don't look!" And "It's not decent for Cacti like you to look up a gentleman's dress, you pervert!' to which Zoro aggressively rolled his eyes.
Luffy was wheezing. He needed air. And Hancock would have given it to him too, via CPR, but he popped back up only a minute later.
"What a crazy boyfriend I have." Nami said, eyes closed, hands on hips. It was almost laughable how much Sanji was still a kid. Zoro scoffed.
'Is that the reason why he said he wasn't going to be a good father?'
"Crazy? More like childish." Zoro said, eating the rest of his sandwich in one bite.
Sanji came back out in a blue T-shirt and Black shorts. Well, there had been one fortunate outcome of that and that had been that despite the fact that his legs were still a bit red, he'd now be able to wear shorts without any insecurities weighing him down. He sashayed out, much to everyone's amusement.
"Did he just...Catwalk?" Hancock asked.
"What a girl." Zoro said for the second time that day.
Sanji realized what he was doing. He immediately stopped and turned almost the shade of red his legs were.
"Aren't we going to the mall?" Sanji asked, trying to avoid a conversation about his walking. He was the only one with clothes on before everyone anyway. Sanji had always taken it that wearing suits and tuxedos were cool and would impress lots of girls while he was fighting, but he only needed Nami-San to be impressed now and he knew she wouldn't be by the suit so Sanji had dropped his habit of wearing suits even wearing hoodies sometimes.
Well, not completely dropped. He still wore tuxedos and stuff, but not everyday. They were comfortable to wear and sometimes weren't. He'd rather wear a chef outfit, but who the hell wears that in public?
"We still have to get our clothes on!" Everyone else replied in unison.
Zoro yawned.
"Oi oi you shitty marimo, you getting tired of me already? Wanna go? Don't you like, wear the same clothes everyday anyway?"
"As if you could hold out long enough. Your move you named after Robin isn't gonna work on me."
"Huh? I didn't name it after her! I just wanted to use French words! I'm French goddammit! It means Devil's leg! "
"So what? I don't remember asking about your nationality."
"WHAT? You-You probably couldn't even slice me anyway! What are you gonna do? This?" Sanji stopped and held his knife in his mouth by the handle and did the deepest voice he could muster, still not that close to Zoro's, "Ittoryu YEET SHISHI SONSON!"
Sanji yeeted Zoro.
Zoro got triggered.
"Huh? You wanna go?"
"I asked that first!"
The two clashed heads until Nami broke them up.
"C'mon you two! You're lucky I'm even sparing you now! You better thank Usopp for his absence." Nami said, dragging Sanji away.
"Oh, Usopp really is a big deal in your crew, is he not? You seem to miss him a great deal." Hancock said, clasping her hands. She did think it was a bit drab without Usopp. She couldn't help it, she wanted to see the rest of their crew again. They'd left like 2 weeks ago. She wondered what they were doing...
"Yes. He's a god." Robin said, flatly.
"NO HE IS NOT!" Zoro and Luffy yelled.
"Anyway, Sanji, when are you gonna stop inventing memes?" Robin asked, giggling herself at the boy's reaction.
Sanji shrugged, cluelessly. (So, Sanji automatically invented the dab and the boi in the early 2000s lol. He even made Nami and Chopper "boi". It's rather funny.)
Hancock giggled. She waved adieu to everyone there and went back up to her room.
"I should get some more dresses! I can't keep wearing high collared dresses forever. Especially since Usopp's new cream...Cream cheese...bag- OH MY GOSH! I FORGOT TO EAT BREAKFAST!"
Hancock had overreacted in the moment looking down so much she was looking up out of pure instinct. Huh? She was spending WAY too much time with Luffy...kidding!
'You can never get too much time with Luffy. Every moment is pure bliss!'
She walked into her large room and pulled out her red crop top and saggy pants.
"In memory of God Usopp!" Hancock laughed to herself. It felt so good to be doing this. Hancock could still remember vaguely all those years she was cold, felt cold, and lived cold. She felt so happy that a fire finally burned within her melting her frozen heart. It was Luffy who had started that fire in her. And not by his Gomu Gomu no Red Hawk.
"I'll just eat at the mall." she said, pulling on her clothes. She loved this outfit. She immediately felt warm.
She undid her bun and styled her hair into 2 buns instead, leaving her bangs out. She looked cute as per usual. She had seen this hairstyle in countless shows and guaranteed it looked good on her. Especially in these clothes. She put on some hoop earrings that had been a gift from Someone during Christmas.
She hopped on downstairs, sliding some sneakers on. Robin had said that sneakers were comfier than heels.
Hancock had to agree.
She almost tried to wear her sandals for extra style, but you never know when someone might attack you and she'd rather not have the sandal digging into her wedge in the middle of her big toe and second biggest.
Plus the sneakers gave her a more "hip" style as she's sure the Television would always say.
Luffy had always worn sandals and Hancock presumed it was because that, due to his rubber feet, he never cared about the sandal pressing into his foot. It would probably just stretch. Or maybe it didn't. Hancock hadn't bothered asking.
She adjusted her earrings. Gosh, she probably should take the time to remember every one of her Kuja's names, but then again...they're just leaving tonight anyway. She'd leave the kingdom in Elder Nyon's care. Yes, it was sad that that old lady was going to rule in her palace, but she was only going to do it for 9 months or more.
She walked over to the front door and saw Robin standing in the doorway. She smiled once she saw Robin's attire. She was wearing a short purple dress with sleeves almost long enough to cover her whole hand that went down to her high thighs. She wore black stockings with purple sneakers. She had her hair still in the same bun, just with her trademark glasses on top of her head. No sign of makeup.
Not like she needed any anyway.
"I've been waiting for you, Hancock." Robin said, turning her head to add more friendliness to her smile. Hancock returned it.
"Am I the last out?" Hancock asked Robin.
"No, I'll go after you, but even if I do that I don't know if we'll be the last out..." Robin said. " Maybe that'll make you feel better."
"Oh no, I'm not upset. You can go before me."
"Well if you say so. Guess we'll go out together. C'mon."
Hancock smiled a smile of a thousand bucks and walked outside the house with Robin.
"Oh if it isn't the empress and the queen." Zoro turned around quick.
"Oh and there's the Prince and Princess. Did you need me to carry any of your stuff while we wait for you to powder your noses?" Zoro asked, in a fake British accent, rolling his eyes.
Seriously though, what was up with Sanji and Nami's attire. Sanji was red all in the face, his clothes untidy on his thin frame. Nami could be said the same about, her white jeans and yellow bra with a orange sun on it hanging loosely on her. Her face had this sense of smugness in it. She pulled her strap up.
Nami pulled Sanji into a kiss and walked away as quickly as it had came. Sanji just stood there staring in space.
As Sanji finally regathering his composure, Zoro said," I had thought they at least would've been out here before everyone else since they were the first to leave, but I guess I was wrong." He walked to the carriage and got inside.
"Hmm, I already know what they did." Robin said, laughing quietly, as she followed Zoro. Hancock didn't know what was going on, but she she did know that she's about to have a good time so she could just forget that for a while.
It looked unpleasant for Sanji anyway.
"Wait for me!"
——————————————————————————
This is the end of the 2nd chapter. I'm writing this on phone so I really can't really get the story to upload the pictures. I'll do that later. Anyway, thank you for viewing. I hope I did all right! Oh and I'm sorry to the people who don't agree with me on Sanji's cuteness. I think Sanji looks super cute. Like Zoro looks "hot" as other people describe it and Sanji looks cutesy to me for some reason. Maybe it's because of his ahoge...or his adorable moments in the anime though Toei doesn't draw him too cute every time. In the manga he looks cute more often.
Oh and Mirajane Strauss is from FairyTail.
Rin Okumura is from Blue Exorcist.
And Mikan Tsumiki is from Danganronpa 2.
Joseph Joestar is from JoJo's bizaare adventure.
I guess that's for copyright reasons, right?
