Forever Yours
"Please!" I begged as he pushed my frail form against the cold, hard wood of the mast. The stars shined brightly in his beautiful chocolete-brown irisis as he meerly smiled, kissing the tip of my nose with a slight-- Whatcha doin, Sanji!
Sanji flinched. The third time. This was the third time he had been interrupted while writing a fanfiction! Could NO ONE on this ship leave him at peace?
The blond chef turned to find Usopp reading over his shoulder. The marksman had a blush forming on his cheeks which was actually not very surprising concidering the story was about he and Luffy.
"Er... You're... busy."
"Yeah, kind of." Sanji replied, going back to his story. He watched Usopp from the corner of his eye as the other teen shifted nervously from one foot to the other as though there was something important he wanted to say.
"Yes?"
"Huh?" Usopp jumped visibly as Sanji asked him this short, to-the-point question.
Sanji rolled his eyes and turned his chair to face Usopp. "What do you want? You wouldn't still be hanging around if you didn't have something to tell me or something you needed, right?"
Usopp nodded a bit.
"Then what do you want?"
Usopp hesitated now before pointing to the story. "That... That's wrong."
Sanji rolled his eyes. "If you don't like it--"
"No! I... I like it just..." Usopp shifted again. "Can you... replace Luffy with you?" He asked, his blush getting darker.
Sanji stared in disbelief. "No... friggen... way... No way! What are you TALKING about!" He cried, jumping up and almost screaming he was so freaked out.
"Never mind, never mind, never mind!" Usopp cried, shielding his face with his hands.
Sanji's eye twitched slightly. He wasn't mad, just... frustrated. Now this was interesting... A love rectangle! Who'd have thought.
He had to get this straightened out. So... he liked Zoro, but Zoro liked Luffy, but Luffy liked Usopp, but Usopp liked HIM! Sheesh...
"Er... Usopp?" Sanji asked, trying to sound casual and as though he wasn't ready to kill the little bugger at any second.
"Y-yes?" Usopp asked, still looking hesitant.
"Could you possibly, maybe, perhaps... Not like me, even a LITTLE?"
Usopp blinked then blushed. "You can't help who you love, Sanji! But I'm really sorry about this, I know you can't ever love me back."
Sanji bit his lip. "Well... It's not that..." 'Great! Now I hurt his feelings!' "It's just that... I don't like you like that... You're my friend and... it just seems strange to me."
Usopp frowned, not quite understanding. "... But..."
"No buts! You should be with Luffy, not me! I'm not the right guy for you, Usopp. You deserve someone more..." Sanji couldn't quite think of the word.
Usopp frowned. "... Maybe you're right... I should... at least give Luffy a shot..." He blinked a moment then looked back at Sanji. "But why Luffy?"
"Because Zoro is mine. Now go."
Usopp blinked.
"GO!"
He was gone.
Sanji leaned back in his chair and smiled at the computer screen, typing a bit more before he laughed to himself. "Who would have thought? Usopp liked me... Ch... Not what I'd call your perfect couple, either."
The blond glanced back over his shoulder at the closed door and the empty kitchen. "... Heh..."
He had gotten another spark of inspiration.
