EDIT: I have been told that this chapter comes off as Sanji x Nami, so please keep in mind that that was not my intentions with this chapter, but I can definitely understand how it can be interpreted as so.

Lastly: Special shout out to the amazing Chidsengan. You literally brighten my day with every message, so I just wanted to thank you again! You are an amazing person!

Story set: Timeless

A break, a bath and a fruity drink

Sanji was taking a break. That happened, it wasn't unusual and today wasn't unusual either. Sanji was just taking a break. Today he had had a bit of a late start because breakfast preparations had been put on hold, when a storm had hit the Sunny. This unfortunately meant that Sanji had been robbed of his morning shower. Unlike the other guys on the crew, Sanji preferred showering daily, so combining bath time with his after-lunch break gave him the luxury of taking a bath complete with soaks and bubbles. He had cleansed in the shower first and had then prepared a bath using a bath bomb made by Usopp and Chopper and recommended by Nami-san. It had a neutral but pleasing smell and Chopper had mixed some special oil into it, which gave it some special effect on the body. What exactly that was, Sanji didn't know, but he figured it was good and relaxing. He had brought a book (not a dirty one, get your mind out of the gutter), which he hadn't found time to read since his birthday two weeks ago. So here he was; taking a break soaked in bubbles and reading a book. Life was good... and then Nami entered.

Sanji hadn't told anyone that he had decided to take a bath, because why would he? The girls showered in the evening and the guys had shower days and today was not one of those days, so when Nami suddenly entered Sanji almost dropped his book in the water. She was fully dressed, so he wouldn't be charged with a ridiculous sum of money for accidentally seeing her naked, but Sanji was naked, and for some reason he was painfully aware of that fact.

"Nami-san?" Sanji asked as he sunk a little further into the tub.

"What- Sanji-kun?" She seemed as surprised as him and by the looks of her, she had come to take a bath too.

"Don't- don't you usually shower in the evening?" He asked quickly as if trying to explain why it was okay for him to use the bathroom.

"I do, but... um... I fell asleep at my desk last night and because of the storm I haven't had time to shower until now... I'm sorry, I'll come back later." She rushed out of the door and left Sanji red faced in the bath. He never finished the book.

Sanji made sure to tell Nami when he was done with his bath and she hurried off without a word. He decided that the best course of action was to pretend nothing had happened and with that mindset he went to prepare dinner.

Dinner went... well. They avoided eye contact and just went about their usual business. Sanji fought with Zoro over something ridiculous and Nami scolded Luffy for his usual behaviour. The others tried to prevent them from destroying anything. Ordinary dinner with the strawhats. What wasn't ordinary was that Nami lingered afterwards pretending to finish a map, though Sanji knew the map she was currently working on was a sketch of non-existent island, which Nami always drew, when she needed to pretend that she was working. Sanji decided to give her a freshly made fruit cocktail and she put down her pen.

"Sorry that I walked in on you..." She said taking a sip of her drink, "It's good," she suddenly exclaimed almost surprised, momentarily forgetting what she talking about, "What's in it?"

"Oranges mostly... but it also has kiwi and mint, and a few other things, but I won't bother you with the minor details."

"Either way it's really good..." she took another sip, "I'm still sorry though."

"It's fine, Nami-san, no harm done. I mean, we even switched bodies once so it's really no big deal."

"Oh yeah..." Nami said, obviously also remembering Punk Hazard. She had been the only one to be put inside two different people, so she must've had it extra hard (not that Sanji had had it particularly rough, he had been in Nami-swan's body for crying out loud!). "But even so, Sanji-kun, I'm sorry. I mean it probably wouldn't have been the end of the world even if I had seen you all naked. I mean, if the rest of you looks as good as what I've already seen, you were just born with the best luck..."

"...What?"

"I mean, Zoro's got the looks, but he's an idiot and he has a shit personality, but you just have the whole package... if we forget a couple of things concerning your constant flirting and idiotic attitude towards women."

"What?"

"I just mean... wait..." Nami seemed to be suddenly understanding what she was saying and quickly corrected herself, "I just mean, you look good and you're nice, okay? Don't get the wrong idea here!"

"Right..." Sanji wasn't quite sure how to respond, he was almost certain that she had been complimenting him on his looks and parts of his personality... but only almost.

"I'll leave and tomorrow none of this happened!" She declared and left the kitchen without taking her fake map with her. Sanji cleaned it up for her, cleaned the kitchen and went to bed. Tomorrow brings a new day, he thought to himself and fell asleep.

Okay, so I know this was short and had nothing to do with food at all, but I just really wanted to write a bath scene, okay?
