Flash Back

The sun was up to mid-noon by this time. Sanji stared after Zolo as he swam out after Hikari. Nami walked up behind him.

"Sanji…" Nami said softly. He turned, grinned, and hugged her.

"Hello my sweet!" He said happily. Nami broke away.

"Sanji… I don't love you any more…" she told him slowly. Sanij's eyes widened.

"Oh…" He said softly and he let go of her and resumed watching the swordsman swim out.

'Why?' he thought angrily 'How could I let her go that easily? No woman has ever resisted my charm, my style, my VOICE!' he rested his chin in the palm of his hand and started to cry. When he stopped he dried his eyes, sat and stared at the flames. His eyes glazed as his mind flashed him pictures of him with Hikari IF she had chosen him.

'I'd treat her nicely, make her favorite foods, and make her happy every night…' he shook his head to get the nasty image out. 'But I'd always protect her and make sure that no one would ever steal her from me…' Sanji looked at the sleeping gypsy. He had a half a mind to grab her and make out with her right then and there.

'Oh if only I could taste her sweet lips again!' he thought 'she really didn't need to give me CPR… I could breath just fine but I wanted her to kiss me so badly…' he grinned 'and what a FINE kisser she makes!' he thought happily. Dawn peeked out over the horizon. Sanji had an idea; he went over to Hikari and whispered in her ear.

"Wake up my angel! A new day begins!" Hikari stirred slightly, and yawned like a cat.

"Huh? Oh good mornin' Sanji!" she said as she flashed her happy morning smile at him. Sanji resisted the urge to kiss her.

"Morning my angel what can I make for you on this wonderful day?" He asked as he took her hand and kissed it lightly. She giggled.

"Oh I don't know lets ask the others--!" Sanji cut her off

"NO!" he said forcefully "let them sleep… they had a rough day yesterday…" Hikari looked at him and shrugged.

"Okay then…" she said slowly. Sanji stood up and offered his hand to her. She took it but Sanji pulled her up with more force than she had suspected and she lost her balance but Sanji caught her.

"You okay?" Sanji asked her and he slowly put his arm around her waist. Hikari blushed lightly.

"Yes… I'm fine I guess I just lost my balance!" She laughed. Sanji quickly took his arm from her waist and shoved his hands into his pockets.

"So—you want to walk with me down the beach?" he asked her. Hikari smiled.

"Sure Sanji!" She giggled and they strode down the beach side together.
