I'll fight for you always part 2

Sanji spent the rest of the afternoon preparing for both Robin's special evening and the crew's dinner. He worked hard, only leaving the kitchen to make trips to Robin's room which she was banned from until the evening. As dinner was simmering he put the final touches on Robin's room and stood back to admire his work, satisfied that everything was how he wanted it he left the room calling the others for dinner as he made his way back to the kitchen.

Dinner passed by rather uneventfully with Luffy as usual eating most of the food. The only noticeable difference, and that was only for a few members of the crew, was the way Sanji lingered on Robin and the looks they shared. Sanji's mind kept drifting to later that evening playing out potential scenarios in his head. Dinner seemed to take forever, the crew lingering over drinks. Sanji smiled and chatted trying to act as normal as possible when he wanted nothing more than to kick them all out so he could whisk Robin away for the most romantic night of her life. The matchmaking navigator eventually took pity on the eager cook and quickly shooed everyone outside to enjoy their drinks under the stars that were starting to come out.

Sanji sighed gratefully and crossed over to the table where Robin still sat, bending down he whispered into her ear.



"I just need to clean up here and then the evening and I are all yours Robin-chan"

Robin's face flushed lightly from the provocative words and the brush of Sanji's lips against her ear. He straightened up and reached to pick up a plate however a slender hand on his wrist stalled him. He looked up to see Nami looking at him with a grin.

"Go on, I'll clean up here"

"Thank you Nami-san"

"Don't worry you can pay me later" she replied with a smirk ushering the two lovers out of the kitchen.

Sanji was out of the kitchen quickly pausing only to grab a covered dish from the fridge on his way out. Robin followed behind him eager to see what he had planned. Balancing the dish on one hand Sanji placed his palm at the base of her back pressing lightly to guide her towards her room. When they reached her door he turned to look at her and saw the excitement glowing in her azure eyes. With her cheeks slightly flushed she looked younger than normal but equally gorgeous. Sanji couldn't resist a quick kiss and her soft lips welcomed his taking him in and the quick kiss stretched into something longer.

"Close your eyes" Sanji murmured pressing a kiss to her temple.

After only the briefest of hesitations Robin lowered her eyelids, Sanji was about to open her door when he looked back over his shoulder and let out a small chuckle.

"No cheating Robin-chan"



With a small smile the almond shaped eye on the wall behind her disappeared and Sanji swung her door open. He led the archaeologist into her room closing the door behind her. He moved to set down the covered dish making a couple minor adjustments as he did so then he moved back to Robin's side and slid an arm around her slender waist.

"Open your eyes my goddess"

Robin opened them slowly taking in the sight before her, she let out a delighted gasp her eyes alight with joy. The look on her face then told Sanji that he had been right to stop things that afternoon. Robin was an amazing lady and deserved to be cherished and lavished with adoring attention. In the middle of her room he had set up a small cafe table draped with a lace cloth, on the table sat a thin vase with a single dark purple rose some additional petals spread out on the table around the plates and wine glasses. Off to the side a bottle of wine was chilling and another single rose lay across her pillow. Robin just stood there speechless and Sanji ushered her over to a chair pulling the seat out for her gallantly. Then he went over and uncorked the wine and poured some into both of their glasses.

Sanji placed the bottle back into the chiller and was about to sit back down when he felt a hand on his arm. He turned around to face Robin who had stood up. She wrapped her arms around his neck holding him close.

"Sanji, thank you" she whispered huskily and Sanji loved the sound of his name on her lips.

Robin pressed forward and covered his mouth with hers, she leaned her entire body into the kiss and Sanji forgot all about the dessert and wine. His hands moved down her sides and up under her shirt lifting it up and over her head, he knelt his head down to nuzzle her neck inhaling the sweet smell that was her. Robin slid his jacket off his shoulder and it slid to the ground in a heap, his tie and shirt soon followed. Bringing his mouth back to hers she drew him into another passionate embrace skin rubbing provocatively against skin. Breaking the 

kiss Sanji scooped Robin up into his arms and carried her over to the bed. He moved the rose to the small table by her bed then gently laid her down, toeing off his shoes he joined her.

He took a moment to admire her with her hair splayed out on the pillow and her cheeks flushed, tenderly he brushed some hair out of her face his hand gently caressing the smoothness of her cheek.

"You are beautiful" he said sincerely and watched in amusement as her cheeks slowly became redder.

In that moment he vowed to tell her that every day, to always remind her how wonderful and beautiful she truly was. Robin drew him down and he started to show her how much he cherished her. His hands roamed lovingly over her soft skin and he quickly removed her bra to better appreciate her beauty. Sanji trailed kisses across her full breasts and gently massaged her nipples to hardness. Robin let out small gasps of delight and moans of pleasure and Sanji picked up the pace the rest of their clothing removed quickly.

As he poised above her ready to enter he brought his hand to her face and with sincere simplicity told her that he loved her. Robin's eyes widened at the words then closed, when she opened them again they shone with unshed tears. Sanji then kissed her with all of his love and devotion and was surprised to find her kissing him back with equal fervour. As their lips were locked in that kiss of simple truths Sanji entered her feeling a wave of completeness wash through him.

Their lovemaking was slow and passionate, Sanji wanting to make the experience special for her. Every action was fuelled by love and Sanji felt it was transcendent, bringing them to a whole new level of being. He devoted his entire body to making her experience as close to perfection as he could and when she went tumbling over that ledge with a strangled moan he felt his entire body release with an inner satisfaction and happiness. He held her close as their bodies shuddered with the ripples of the climax.

They lay in bed entangled in each other lightly dozing for awhile. It wasn't until sometime later that he remembered the romantic dessert he had prepared. Pressing a kiss to her temple Sanji climbed out of the bed and picked up the dish and the two forks. He brought them all back to the bed and crawled back in beside Robin. Sitting up in the bed with Robin leaning into him the two of them ate the heart shaped cake. It was a rich velvety chocolate with a raspberry cream filling and drizzled with raspberry coulis. Sanji took a small forkful and offered it to Robin who chewed it slowly making small appreciative noises.

"Good my love?" Sanji asked helping himself to a bite.

Robin turned her head to look at him and she gave him a chaste kiss before answering.

"Everything is perfect."
