"Mademosille." Sanji invited as he pulled out in the chair for Usopp.

Amused Usopp looked at Sanji, but did as she was supposed to, and sat down to let Sanji push in the chair, which made Usopp chuckle down in her hand.

"What?" Sanji asked taking place in front of her.

"I just remembered, you only did that ones before for me." Usopp pointed out. "Up in the crows nest." She sighed.

Sanji blinked, then looked thoughtful. "I guess you are right, we've just been so busy on the ship."

"It's always a mad-house that ship." Usopp smirked. "How long did we manage to be alone together at the time since the crows nest?" she asked.

"At most ten minutes I think." Sanji had to admit out. "What a shame." He sighed disappointed, looking at the menu in his hands with a critical eye.

Usopp lifted an eye-brow. "I know this wont be barratie quality food, but I hope there'll be at least some-thing you'll like."

At that Sanji smiled at Usopp. "I get to be alone with you, as you said, absolutely worth it, I'm sure there's something good, this wine is excellent." He pointed out pointing at a wine.

"I'll take your word for it." Usopp smiled leaning her chin in her hands.

Sanji did take care of the ordering, knowing what went with what, and soon they were laughing having a good time.

"Usopp stop." Sanji laughed. "You're making me choke!"

"What? So you don't think Zoro would win the fight against the giant pudding man?" Usopp asked in a lifted eye-brow.

"How do you get to have such an active imagination?" Sanji asked. "You're ridicoulous."

"I don't know, I guess that's just my talent." Usopp blushed slightly. "You know, I do the things you can't do, you do the things I can't do."

At that Sanji looked at Usopp. "Definetely." He told. "So Usopp, tell me, how is your home island, it was Syrup island wasn't it?" he asked.

"What?" Usopp blined surprised over the sudden change in topic.

"Your home." Sanji asked. "You've all-ready seen the Baratie, even met the old geezer. But I got no clue where you come from, I never even heard of Syrup island." He admitted.

"Well, there's not to surprising really." Usopp told quietly. "Syrup is a very small island, and very remote, far away from any-thing big and important. People there feel safe, because it's to remote and un-important for any pirates to even bother with. The village is so small, that every-one knows every-one, or at least their faces. It's incredible rare that any strangers comes to the place, it's just a very isolated little society minding their own buisness."

"Really?" Sanji asked in a blink.

"Does that surprise you?" Usopp asked.

"I'm just wondering how such a small place were able to contain you, I did think you were from some-where more lively than what you describe." Sanji admitted.

"Well." Usopp smirked. "They weren't able to contain me, I was the trouble maker of the city. It was so boring where I was, so I just had to make up my own adventures.. the villagers really hated me disturbing their peace." She then admitted in a almost apologetic smirk. "Then again, doesn't look like the Baratie was able to contain you either." She smirked.

At that Sanji leaned back his neck and laughed out loud. "I guess you are right." He grinned as he turned back. "What a wild bunch of people Luffy is collecting."

"This is nice." Usopp sighed smiling taking a sip of her class. "Just sitting here, you're not acting as crazy as you usually do."

"I'm almost surprised you didn't tell me a lie at ones and told me you were secretly a prince or some-thing." Sanji smirked.

At that Usopp smirked back. "No, not that. I wont lie about where I came from. Syrup is still my home, my mother was wonderful and kind and my dad is an inspiration, a true pirate riding the sea for adventure, just like I want to do."

"Well." Sanji smirked as he leaned over the table. "Mission accomplished, isn't it my fine lady?" he asked. "You're a great adventure now aren't you?"

"Well I.." Usopp swallowed, and the next moment Sanji kissed her ones again on the lips and Usopp leaned over, almost tipping over the glass of wine in front of her.

"HEY YOU TWO!" a man suddenly called from beside them. "GET A ROOM!"

At ones Sanji and Usopp broke apart and starred wide-eyed at each other, then blushed averting their eyes from each other.

"What a silly man." Sanji then laughed nervously.

"Yeah, definitely." Usopp responded, then they were silent for a moment, before Usopp spoke up again. "Why don't we get a room?" she asked.

"What?" Sanji blinked.

"I mean.." Blushing Usopp pressed her two front fingers together not looking at Sanji. "We are not supposed to be back before tomorrow any-way, and erh.. I mean.. we don't have to do any-thing or any-thing. I'm, haha." Usopp laughed nervously. "The only person I ever kissed is you, so I have no idea how any of this works." She admitted nervously scratching her hair.

Blushing Sanji looked down as he lithed a ciggerate. "Okay, honestly Usopp, I erh… erhmm." He swallowed. "You're also.. the.. only person I ever kissed." He then admitted.

At that Usopp gaped. "What?" she asked. "For real?"

"Hey don't look surprised." Sanji muttered.

"But I thought." Usopp blinked. "I mean.."

"Look, at the Barratie we were only men around, and I was the youngest by far." Sanji told. "And I would never take advantage of a woman." He muttered crossing his arms. "How about you?" he asked.

"I've never been interested in any men before." Usopp admitted. "I was fine about being a boy, I didn't care about such things as men or any-thing." She admitted. "It's first when I started liking you I wanted to be a girl."

"So in short, neither of us knows what the hell we are doing." Sanji concluded.

Usopp smirked, then laughed. "You know, that does make me feel more relaxed." She admitted. "Wanna quite this resturant and take a walk?" she asked.

"Absolutely." Sanji smiled standing up.


Together they stood by the shore, looking out at the ocean, Sanji holding Usopp, and Usopp smiling happily as she felt Sanjis breath in her neck.

"How do you feel?" Sanji asked softly in her ear.

"Like my life is perfect." Usopp smiled, then felt a chill down her body as Sanjis lips touched her neck, and his arms her hair.

Usopp turned around, and ran her own hands through Sanjis hair, as she inhaled his scent of herbs and all kinds of delicious food. Then they kissed, as their hands ran up and down each other. "Hey Usopp." Sanji whispered in Usopp's ear. "How about that room?"

And a room they found at a cheap hotel, that the hotel was cheap, didn't matter to the two, they only had eyes for each other.

Body against body, kisses shared, sounds of pure pleasure, and at last, Usopp rested content in Sanjis arms as the sun broke over the horizont again, showing a new day.

They had been up basically all night, so it was no wonder they both slept in, neither of them really wanted to move.

Which why both of them groaned annoyed and simultaneously as Usopp's mini-Denden mushi rang from her satchel.

"Leave it." Sanji asked.

Usopp sighed deeply. "It might be important." She pointed out as she groggily walked for her satchel, wearing nothing but a blanket, then she picked it up, and then silenced.

Sanji blinked. "Usopp what is it?" he asked.

"wow, wow Chopper calm down." Usopp spoke into the mini-denden mushi. "I can't understand a word you are saying."

Sanji blinked as Usopp met his eyes.

"It's Chopper, he sounds very upset." Usopp told Sanji. "Yes Chopper, I just spoke to Sanji, he is right here with me." She spoke into the mushi, then she froze, as it looked like she was listening intensely, then her eyes widened and she nodded. "Okay Chopper I got it, stay where you are, I'm coming to get you okay, just hold on." Then she put down the mini-denden mushi.

"What's going on?" Sanji asked from the bed, where he sat up, his blond hair all ruffled up.

Usopp looked seriously at Sanji. "We are in a hurry." She told in a serious tone. "Caimi has been kidnapped, we need to safe her."

Immediately Sanji threw away his covers. "Why didn't you just say so!?" he exclaimed reaching for his pants.

Usopp did the same, found her shorts, tank-top and bag, in record time they were both dressed and headed for the door before Usopp stopped. "Oh Sanji, wait." She blinked.

"What?" Sanji turned to her, only for Usopp to reach up and give Sanji a short kiss on the lips.

"Now we go." Usopp smiled.

"Sure, I can deal with that." Sanji smiled happily.

"I pick up Chopper and Brook, you pick up Zoro." Usopp told.

"Lets get over with this soon, then I make us a tasty brunch, to be eaten in private at the bay." Sanji stated suredly, then bowed down and kissed Usopp.

Usopp smiled. "I'll be looking forward to it." She smiled, before they each hopped on each their scooter. "See you in a bit Sanji!" she cheered.

"I'll count the seconds till we are alone together again!" Sanji stated, and then he was gone making Usopp laugh.

"You're so silly some-times." Usopp chuckled as she rolled her eyes.
