Chopper examined the mysterious pink plant placing a few droplets of it's dew under the microscope working tirelessly. He gasped at his findings beginning to scribble away on his notepad. He would find the cause of the navigator's odd behavior and an anti-agent to combat the effects hopefully cure her. The reindeer didn't know how much over dramatic public display of affection he could take from those two.

Outside the crew tried to go about their usual daily business even with Luffy and Nami missing in action. They could hear the couple clear as day from the Sunny figurehead. The groans and differently pitched moans were loud enough to make Franky cover his ears as he adjusted the vessel's steering wheel.

"Why?! How did this happen?" Sanji sank in a depressive state banging his fists on the grass.

The swordsman smirked seeing the chef's misery. "Face it curly brows, you should've seen this coming. The money hungry witch would rather be with the pirate king who's going to be rich rather than a beta cucked chef like you." Zoro said curling his weights while laying on the ship's railing.

"Shut up! It doesn't make it any easier." Sanji wailed letting his tears flow laying on the ground in agony.

Usopp, Brook, and Robin cupped their ears with a tint accompanying their cheeks listening to the loud smacking going on.

"Either their chewing lot's of bubble gum or making out like crazy." Usopp surmised turning toward the other two.

Brook chuckled, "Wow Luffy-san and Nami-san are good." The skeleton glanced over at Robin who was blushing like crazy hearing the smacking and conversing of the people she wanted to get together most on the crew.

The others approached the trio listening to the couple perched on the figurehead deciphering what they were saying to one another.

Luffy popped Nami's bubble she blew with her gum causing them both to chuckle.

"Thanks for the gum Luffy, it's really good this orange flavor is my favorite." She laughed leaning back into his chest. He wrapped his arm around Nami's waist nuzzling into her warmth.

"Cherry is my favorite shishshi." He chuckled leaving a kiss on her cheek. The captain wasn't sure exactly when the switch flipped to her acting like this but he didn't complain, he was starting to like his navigator this way.

Nami leaned her head back on his shoulder claiming his lips. The cherry and orange flavors created a unique warmth between them. "I love you babe, do you love me?" She asked searching his eyes.

Luffy wasn't sure what love entailed exactly but this had to be it, there wasn't anything else like this. He chuckled earning a slight frown from the orangette.

"Why are you laughing like that?" She asked puffing her cheeks slightly.

Luffy placed his forehead against hers, "because I realized that I love you too, and I find it really cute when you pout like that." He said roughly kissing. She moaned softly running her hands through his spiky black hair.

She clunked her head against his forehead. "Ow Nami what was that for?" He questioned peaking an eye open at her.

"I'm just happy knowing I'm special to you and," she grabbed his collar straddling his lap, "I want to rock your world Monkey D. Luffy." Nami growled forcing him under her. Their moans became louder causing the crew listening to take rapid steps backwards.

"We have to break them up." Usopp groaned earning a pat on the back from the cook. The rest couldn't have agreed more with the exception of Robin who summoned her arms snatching them by their throats, a dark look accompanying her features.

"Now look what you gone and did Usopp." Zoro growled struggling against the arms' steel like grip.

"Oi Relax Robin, we'll stay out of if." Franky barked causing the archeologist to release them.

Usopp cough loudly clutching his throat. "What the hell Robin?! Your going to kill over that?" He shouted.

"Precisely." She answered coldly.

"ROOOBBBINNN!" Usopp shouted his eyes popping from his skull.

"Robin-chaaawn why?!" Sanji cried rocking himself while sucking a thumb. This whole public display thing was really killing him from the inside out.

"Damn witch." Zoro growled pulling out a bottle from his shirt beginning to chug loudly.

Franky went to stand next to his girlfriend. "Do you really want to them together like this, why doesn't it bother you?" The cyborg asked scratching his head in bewilderment at Robin's odd behavior toward them.

"Because what they have is special. Even if they're being dramatic do any of you deny they don't have something a close unique bond that's highly unusual among crew mates?" Robin inquired glancing around the circle.

Sanji immediately shot his hand up in the air objecting to whatever Robin said. The others turned to glance at him waiting for him to give him reasoning. Sighing deeply he lowered his arm in defeat tracing a circle with his foot, "sorry Robin-chawn." He said sniffling. Even the love cook knew when to yield when it came to those two.

"We should just let it be whatever happens, happens I'm over it." Zoro stated leaving the others to go to the weight room.

Usopp sighed deeply, "if it means them being happy then I guess I can't really complain although I'll never get used to what happened at breakfast this morning." The marksman shuddered remembering it all too well. He shrugged walking toward his workshop to tinker with an invention.

Sanji threw his hands in the air letting out a loud yell echoing across the ship before slumping over. "If it makes Nami-swan happy thats what's important, even if it is with the shitty captain." He said leaving a trail of tears behind him as he hobbled slowly back toward the kitchen.

Franky groaned, "You're playing with Fire Robin, but if something bad happens between them to fracture the crew you have to take responsibility."

"I'm aware." She snapped earning another groan from the shipwright.

"Alright then, I'll be in my workshop if you need me." The cyborg followed the rest of the crew inside. Robin returned her attention to the pair continuing their lovey dovey antics on the figurehead.

Sweat began to drip off the navigator's chin landing on the captain's scarred chest earning a groan from him. She continued teasing the rubber man grinding on him until he begged her not to stop. Even with their clothes on the heat between the two couldn't go unstated.

Luffy groaned staring down at where she worked on him. Despite only being dry humped out of his cardigan, he couldn't focus due to the insurmountable pleasure building.

Nami leaned close to his ear, "I want to go really far Luffy, meet me in the library." She giggled before running off toward the ship. She ignored his shouts telling her to stay.

Robin hid behind the mast watching Luffy chase the orangette into the library. Her curiosity got the better as she followed the pair. She was too late to notice a frantic Chopper running about the ship searching for Luffy and Nami shouting something about the effects of a certain plant.

Nami placed Luffy's hands on her hips wrapping her arms around his neck dragging him toward the unoccupied desk. Their tongues battled for dominance as he eventually won out eliciting a deep moan from her. She smirked victoriously feeling him finally lose his self control to her seduction.

"I want you, I need you." She breathed heavily suckling on his neck.

"Need me how? Show me." He said returning her affections wholeheartedly. He boldly gripped her breasts as she sat on the desk pulling him on top to lay above her.

"Nami..." He said staring at her through half-lidded eyes, a certain hunger was beginning to take over him.

"Mm...Luffy right there." She moaned softly as he suckled the sensitive spot on her neck leaving a hickey. "Please Luffy I need you, take advantage of me." She whispered in his ear.

Every fiber in his being froze at her words as he completely halted his movements. Nami noticed his lack of movement thinking it was an elaborate way of teasing her.

She pouted the way he loved trying to gain his attention back. "Luffy if you're trying to tease me it's working, now come on don't keep me waiting." The navigator laid kisses to him trying to reignite the flame.

"What's wrong babe?" She asked sweetly cupping his cheeks.

"I think we should stop Nami..." he said keeping his eyes hidden from her.

Outside the observation room Chopper ran into Robin nearly out of breath.

"Have you seen Luffy or Nami?" He wheezed hunched on his knees.

"What is it Chopper?" She asked curiously.

"I know what's wrong with Nami!" Chopper shouted regaining his wind. Robin's eyes widened curious to what the doctor had to say.

"Tell me first Chopper." She stated kneeling eye level with him.

"Very well." The reindeer began to explain his findings to the archeologist.

Back inside Nami chuckled at the captain's words thinking not too much from them. "Okay babe we can take it slow, take a break for a day or so maybe—"

She was interrupted by Luffy firmly pulling her hands and placing them into her lap. "No Nami, I mean we shouldn't do any of this anymore, ever again." He said coldly.

Nami furrowed her brows, "don't be a idiot Luffy. When a girl throws herself at you, you don't push her away now stop joking around!" She shouted for the first time in awhile.

"I'm not Nami..."

"Really give me one good reason right now!" She demanded crossing her arms. It upset the orangette that he still wouldn't look her in eyes.

Luffy gritted his teeth trying to contain his emotions. This would be one of the hardest things he'd ever done. "I-I I'm in love with someone else."

The words struck Nami in the heart wounding her deeply. She hopped off the desk hiding her eyes underneath her bangs.

"So you were just playing with my emotions then? Using me?" She asked matching his tone.

He glanced at her for the first time. "No, I do like you...but as a friend, your my nakama...I mixed the two up..." Luffy's voice was beginning to strain from the words coming out his mouth.

"Who?"

"What?"

"Who is it your in love with? You at least owe me that much?" She asked taking a step away from him. He couldn't help lower his gaze to his feet in shame.

"Boa Hancock." He answered still not meeting her gaze.

"The snake empress? That's a lie!" She yelled. "Look me in the eyes and tell me that's not true!"

He met her gaze reflecting a certain sadness. She roughly shoved his chest to put distance between them. Luffy knew how sensitive she was when it came to Hancock. The woman was considered to be the most beautiful woman on the planet aside from Shirahoshi.

"It's not true."

"Then who Luffy?! Tell me!" She demanded gritting her teeth.

"It's Vivi." He said meeting her fierce gaze finally.

Nami let out an unhumorous laugh stepping further away. "I should've known, that's why you never made a move on me before I did on you. I just thought you were different Luffy, but I was wrong...you're the same like every other man." She said with a soft gaze before brushing past him practically running from the library.

"Nami wait I need to—" he grabbed her shoulders only for her to hit his chest roughly pushing him away.

"NO! You don't get to touch me, ever! You lost that privilege. To think I let you in after all these years and let you have me only for you to do this to me." She sobbed before turning angry. "Unless it has something to with navigating, DON'T SPEAK TO ME EVER AGAIN!" Nami screamed crying into her arm before running past Chopper and Robin who opened the door.

The two gaped at Nami turning to see Luffy throwing chairs across the room in a fit of anger.

"I'll talk to Nami, can you talk to Luffy?" Robin rhetorically asked before jogging after the orangette.

Robin opened the door to find Nami crying into her pillow. She couldn't help feel somewhat responsible for encouraging the navigator's behavior while under the influence of the plant.

"I'm sorry." Robin said sitting next to the navigator placing a hand on her back.

"Why are you the one sorry Robin? Luffy said he loved another woman, even after all we did..." she sobbed into her pillow letting her sorrows out.

The archeologist understood what she was feeling at the moment. She pulled the navigator into a hug sitting her up and holding the younger woman until she fell asleep.

"Luffy calm down." Chopper pleaded seeing the captain's knuckles bleed from hitting table repeatedly.

The doctor bandaged Luffy's hands staring at the bruised and bloodied knuckles. "I'm sorry to tell you that the plant Nami was effected with held a natural powerful aphrodisiac. I'm not sure if her feelings were real; the ancient natives used that plant between newlyweds as a sexual stimulate in the honeymoon phase. The stimulation was said to be so powerful it could heal the most gruesome of injuries. Is any of this sinking in?" Chopper questioned glancing at the captain hoping he listened to the explanation.

"Do you how long it will last?"

"Until tomorrow morning, she won't remember anything from the past day and a half, I'm afraid—I'm truly sorry Luffy. I don't know all that you did but—"

Luffy cut him off. "No that's fine, it's for the best anyway." He said slightly relieved things would go back to normal and she wouldn't hate him. But a large part was hurt from the events that transpired. He desperately wanted what they felt to be real, he realized now more than ever how he felt about her.

"You're all patched up, hopefully you can tell her the truth tomorrow she needs to know Luffy." Chopper advised leaving the captain to his thoughts.

Robin silently closed the door after rocking the navigator asleep to come face to face with Luffy.

"Hello Luffy."

"Hi Robin, is Nami awake?"

"No, she just fell asleep."

"I'd like to see her for a minute, you can stay behind if you want." He offered.

Robin nodded opening the door to let him through. He stepped through to see her peaceful sleeping form at the far end of the room. He sat next to her gazing at how beautiful face, he couldn't believe it was the same scary woman who berated him a lot of time.

He sighed softly, "I'm sorry to do that to Nami. I never wanted to hurt you, I just want to keep you safe, happy, and keep you smiling. I would never take advantage of you in anyway, even if it meant you hating me. I hope in someway you know that when I said I loved you that I meant it; you're truly the only woman I feel that way about." He leaned down pressing a kiss to her temple before standing to leave.

"Luffy..." he heard her whisper in a deep sleep. Luffy couldn't help smile before exiting the room to join the crew for dinner.

Nami stretched yawning loudly as she ran her hand through the orange locks.

"Morning Robin." She smiled seeing the archeologist sitting up on her bed. "I'm starved, I wonder what's for breakfast?" She asked yawning loudly again. "I feel like I been asleep for a couple days." The navigator slumped back on her pillow feeling drowsy.

"Nami, we need to have a word." Robin said causing the younger woman to sit up.

The orangette arched a brow. "About what? Did something happen?" She asked an urgent tone lacing her voice.

"Let me start at the beginning."

Luffy stood outside the door to the kitchen anxiously awaiting the arrival of his navigator. He didn't have to wait long as Robin waved to him heading inside and Nami stood a few feet away staring at him.

"Hey Nami I hope your not—"

He barley had time to speak before he felt her frame crash against his. "Thank you." She squeaked out pulling him tighter to her.

"Huh?" He turned to her bewildered, he didn't expect this reaction.

"Robin told me everything...about yesterday, what you did in the library. I was right you are different, any other man would've done horrible things to me...but not you." She held back emotion from her voice as she clutched on Luffy like he was a lifeline.

"Of course, I would never take advantage of you. You're really special to me Nami." He said holding onto her fearing to let go.

She pulled back looking into his eyes. "I can always count on you can't I?"

"Yes whatever you need, I'll always be here for you, no matter what."

Nami hugged him tightly again. "That's what I wanted to hear." The only sound of the both of them could hear was their beating hearts enjoying the moment together.

"Oh by the way Robin may have not seen everything we did..." Luffy spoke with tinted cheeks scratching the side of his face.

"What's that supposed to mean?" She asked crossing her arms.

He told her about the seduction technique she used in the men's shower the previous morning. Nami inwardly screamed palming her face.

"I really did that..." she asked as her mouth hung agape.

"Shishi, you sure did, you're such a pervert Nami." Luffy laughed at her flushed face before receiving a half a dozen bumps on his head.

"You probably urged me to do it, you're the pervert I would never do something like that." She said turning away from with her arms folded.

"Good to see you're back to normal..." he said standing up with a few teeth missing.

"Hey Luffy..." She said still facing away from him.

"Yeah Nami..."

"I...I wouldn't mind doing some of those things again," she turned to look in his eyes, "but we need to complete our dreams first, after you become pirate king." She stated with a hopeful gleam in her eyes.

"Wouldn't have it any other way." He smirked as they shared another hug. "Shall we?" He asked opening the door for her.

"Thank you." She smiled stepping through the door. The crew cheered seeing their captain and navigator enter the room back to their normal selves.

A/N: A fun short story. The next one is more earnest and I debated making it a full story but decided against it. I really urge you check that one out, I'm jacked for it. Another note, no matter the disposition or constitution of the the story I always try to put a morale into it. For some people it will mean everything to others absolutely nothing. As always thanks for reading.
