Chapter 4

Setting: The setting now takes place in Nami and Robin's room. This is the day after FortWorth Island and before Luffy goes missing. It's super early in the morning and no one is awake. Well for the most part…

"Bleeeuuurrrggghh!"

Robin woke up startled from her quiet sleep hearing this noise. She sat up from her sleeping position and looked around the room.

"What was that noise?" Robin thought to herself while looking around the room. She really couldn't see anything since the lights was off but nothing seemed out of the ordinary. "I'm probably just imagining things."

Robin laid back down and was trying to go to sleep. All was well until she heard the noise again…

"Bleeeuuurrrggghh!"

Robin sat up again and started to get annoyed with the noise. She sat quietly and started to listen to hear the noise. In a few moments, she heard it again and started to think.

"It sounds like it coming from the restroom but I don't know what the noise is exactly." She said to herself in a whisper. She than faced Nami bed and started to call to her.

"Nami, can you hear that?" Robin asked in a whisper. She got no response.

"Maybe she is just asleep." Robin thought. She heard the noise once more and she was getting curios by the second. Soon enough, her curiosity enveloped her and she decided to check where the noises were coming from. She got up from her bed and opened the door to go outside. She then walked down the downstairs and went to the door that leads to the bathroom. She placed her ear on the door and started to listen.

"Bleeeuuurrrggghh!"

When she was actually able to hear the source of the sound more clearly now, she was able to identify it. The sounds that she was hearing ever since she woke up were the sound of someone throwing up. Robin slowly opened the door only to be revealed that the person that was throwing up was Nami.

"Nami, are you okay?" Robin said as she ran to Nami, who was hovering over the toilet throwing up. She got on her knees and started pulling Nami's hair back from her face that she doesn't get vomit in it. She then started rubbing her back, trying to soothe her.

"Just let it all out, just let it all out." Robin said.

Nami had stopped vomiting after some time but she still hovered over the toilet to make sure everything was out. Robin saw that she was breathing slowly and she was trying to relax.

"Do you need medicine? I can go get Chop—"

"No, no, it is okay. I feel okay. I'll probably be better by morning. I just need to lay down. Can you help me up?"

"Yea, sure let's get you up." Robin replied as she placed Nami arm over her shoulder and picked her up. As Robin was picking her up, Nami leaned over and placed her hand on the toilet lever and flushed the toilet.

Nami couldn't help but look at her own vomit going around and around until it disappeared. It was a disgusting thing to look at, and she felt like she had to throw up again just because she looked at it. She than placed down the toilet seat and started walking to the girl dormitory with Robin.

"Robin?"

"Hmmm?"

"Remind me never to drink again."

"You really think you're going to listen to me if I said?" Robin asked with a smirk.

Nami started to laugh. "Hell no."


They soon returned to their dormitory and laid back into their bed. Robin was attempting to go to asleep, but Nami was a different story. Nami was just laying in her bed staring at the wall. During and after Nami threw up, all her memories from Fort Worth Island came rushing back to her. The moment when she saw the beautiful art on the buildings, when the town citizens cheered, when she met the mayor. She then started to remember when she was looking for clothes with Robin and how they came to be in Genette's clothing store. That when she remembered Lisa.

Nami started to remember how when she first met Lisa that she seemed like a nice innocent girl, only to hate her in a few minutes. Nami hated the fact that Lisa was trying to kiss Luffy and she just wanted to jab her in the throat with her Clima-tact. Nami knew that she committed many crimes before such as stealing money, but killing some one( like Lisa for example) would be a new one.

Nami started to remember more and more up until the point that she all she could was remember was going to the bar.

"What happened after I got drunk?" Nami thought. " I can't even remember how I got to the ship."

Nami was trying to think what happened after she went to the bar, but she couldn't think of anything. She was trying to hard to remember that veins were starting to appear on her forehead. Her veins were so distinct on her forehead that you would get worried if she was about to pop a blood vessel. A few seconds had passed, and she only remembered only a little bit. But that "little bit" started to make her blush and she mentally slapped herself on the forehead telling herself...

" I'm so stupid for telling Robin I liked Luffy." As Nami kept on repeating that thought in her head, she didn't believe that she actually did that and thought she just made herself worried. But the idea kept on bothering her and she kept on asking herself...

"What if I did?"

The curiosity was killing her and she needed to know. Nami stopped staring at the ceiling and laid on her side, facing Robin bed.

"Robin are you awake?" Nami asked.

Robin turned over to her side and faced Nami and responded. "I was about to fell asleep, but I'm still awake. What do you need?"

"Well, ummm, I just wanted to ask if I told you anything important while I was drunk." Nami asked while fidgeting with her fingers in her blanket.

"No, but can I tell you something important?" Robin said with a straight face.

"What is it?" Nami responded

"I like Luffy." As soon as Robin said that, Nami shot up from her bed and started to yell.

"What!?" Nami exclaimed with shocked eyes. Robin started to laugh and Nami went back to her original state, being very confused.

"I'm just kidding Nami. I just wanted to see how you reacted. I would never steal Luffy from you. But I must say, you do make it hard for a girl to kiss Luffy."

Nami started to feel embarrassed they way she reacted to Robin's lie and started to blush when Robin made her comment. Robin made it seem that Nami was in a relationship with Luffy and Nami is being possessive.

Nami laid back in bed giggling and started to talk. "Very funny, Robin. You got me."

"All joking aside though, you did tell me something important." Robin said with a smirk.

"What did I tell you?"

"Well while you were drunk, you were speaking in third-person and you said this, 'Nami likes Luffy.' " Robin said giggling.


Nami started to cover her face with her hands, trying to cover her embarrassed face.

"What did you think about it when I first told you?" Nami asked curios, but still inside of her blankets

"Well, I kinda had a feeling you already did, and sooner or later, I would have made you tell me. I was just surprised I would hear you say, you like Luffy while your drunk." Nami and Robin both started to laugh at that.

"I can't believe I said that to you. That is so embarrassing." Nami asked, as she started to shake her head cause of Robin's previous comment.

Robin started to laugh. "Well I was happy to hear it from you, even though you said it while you were drunk."

Nami started to lift an eyebrow and was curious what she meant by that. "What do you mean you were happy to hear it?"

"Well, I don't know, it hard to explain. When you stay in this crew for a long time, you get to see everyone relationship and how they are." Nami nodded in agreement.

"For example, Luffy and Zoro have a brother relationship while me and you have a sister type relationship. Luffy and Usopp are best friends while Zoro is like an older brother to Chopper. You see? Everyone has their own type of relationship with someone else and can be described in different ways. Some are harder to describe than others though."

"Like who?" Nami asked, who wanted to get more involved with this conversation.

"Well, one for example is Zoro and Sanji. Though both are always bickering and butting heads, they do care for each other. I think we all know that if one were to fall, the other one would go and pick them back up. It just that we all know they probably never admit it."

"Well I guess it make more sense since someone actually said it." Nami responded.

"But that relationship with Zoro and Sanji is not the hardest to describe or understand." Robin said with a grin.

"Really? Then who is it?" Nami said, being very interested in the conversation.

"It you and Luffy."

"What?" Nami said with a sad frown, thinking that the answer meant that their relationship was bad.

"There nothing wrong with you and Luffy, it just hard to describe, so don't take it personally." Robin said seeing that Nami was frowning, but once Nami heard Robin explanation she stopped frowning and smiled, trying to show Robin that she is okay now.

"You see, you and Luffy's relationship just can't be described as friends."

"How come?" Nami asked

"Well for one thing, you and Luffy have a more intimate relationship than anyone else on this ship." Robin started to giggle as she had seen that Nami was blushing and she was hiding under her blankets to hide her expression.

(Author Note: Just to make sure you get understand what Robin meant when she said Intimate, I'll give you the definition. Intimate- associated in close personal relationship with someone. I know that there intimate also means sexual relation with someone, but for now, just use the definition I give you.)

"Would you like me to keep on talking about it?" Robin asked to Nami (who was still hiding under her blankets.) Robin saw that the blankets were moving up and down and she assumed she was nodding her head yes.

"I will just take it as a yes." Robin said as she was still laying down on her side, but now was resting her head on her hand. "Out of all the crew members on this ship, you are the one to be more worried about Luffy than anyone else. You also share most of your feelings with the Captain than anyone else. Feeling such as when you were worried, scared, or even excited. When was the first time when you acted intimate Captain?" Nam then pulled herself out of the covers and then faced Robin.

"I guess I can't ignore your question since were already deep into the conversation, right?" Nami asked. Robin nodded her head, trying to say yes.

"Well, I guess the reason why I act more intimate with Luffy than anyone else, was when it all started when he saved me."

"Save you?"

"Oh right, you weren't there when the crew first started. Well when the crew started, it was just Luffy and Zoro. I was technically never apart of the crew at the time since I made an alliance with Luffy to just tag along on his voyage. The reason why I didn't join at the time was because I was already a part of a crew. It was called the fishmen pirate crew and I was forced into it. I made a deal with their Captain, Arlong, if I were to obtain 100,000,000 million beli, I would give him the money and he would give me back my village that he invaded.

When Luffy and the rest were about to recruit Sanji into the crew, a pirate named Don Krieg tried to steal Sanji's Head Chef Restaurant. Luffy, Zoro, and Usopp went to go and help them protect the restaurant. That when I betrayed Luffy and stole Merry and the money." Once Nami said that, she started to cry. Robin and had seen this and sprouted a hand on Nami shoulders and started to wipe her tears.

"Why are you crying?"

"Is just even after I betrayed Luffy and everyone else, Luffy still forgave me." Nami then started to point to her tattoo. "The tattoo you see now wasn't my first. The tattoo before this was a tattoo that showed you were a part of the fishmen pirate crew. When I was at my hometown, Arlong's corrupted marines invaded my house and took my money. He had betrayed me and I was infuriated. I was so mad that I started to stab myself where that previous tattoo lied." Nami then started to smile and Robin was confused.

"Why are you smiling?" Robin asked. Nami stilled smile and was wiping away dried tears that were stained at her cheek.

"It just when I was stabbing myself, Luffy was there and I wanted him to go away. I kept on telling him to leave but he never turned his back on me. Everything changed when he gave me his strawhat." Robin started to smile sweetly, seeing how Nami was just looking at the walls with dreamy looking eyes, as if she was imagining herself back in that moment.

"After that he defeated Arlong and saved me and my town. It just that when he said that his hat was his treasure and he gave it to me, I just felt special."

"Is that when you started to like him?" Robin asked. Nami started to nod with a bright smile and Robin felt happy for her.

"At first, I knew I felt different towards him, but I didn't know how to explain it at the time. It just, at that time, I didn't know I actually liked him. When I was with Arlong's crew, I never really had time to myself. It was always either making maps for him or going out to sea to steal money and pay Arlong the money for the deal. So I never had time to develop a crush or even get the chance to like someone.I just knew I felt different towards Luffy. As the weeks and months have progressed I started to have more feeling for him and them I realized that those feeling were more than just friendship." Nami said smiling as she felt happy and content in what she was saying.

Until now, she never had someone to talk about her feelings with and she always kept her feelings bottled up. Put now since she can release it, she feels great.


"That is such a romantic story." Robin said as she felt like she was right there with Nami as Nami was describing it. "But that proves my point in why you and Luffy's relationship is hard to describe. You both seem like a couple ,but you guys aren't and that is why your relationship with Luffy is hard to describe. You both seem like a couple, but you aren't. And if I were to call you two friends, that wouldn't be a good description of your relationship. And the way you described Luffy at Genette's clothing store and the way you talked about Luffy in the past, it just made it seemed you loved Luffy instead of liking him."

Nami started to smile when Robin made her comment, but soon frowned. Robin was confused on that reaction and asked...

"What a matter? You were smiling just right now, but then you just frowned."

Nami started to sigh and looked back at Robin, still with a sad face. " I would tell you I love Luffy, it just I can't.

Robin was confused and she didn't understand. "What do you mean?"

"Don't get me wrong, I do. It just every-time I am reminded that I love him, I try to get rid of that feeling. Even now it hard for me to say that I love him."

Robin was surprised to hear this and didn't understand why she was saying all these things."Why do you feel this way?"

"It just what if he doesn't feel the same? I just keep on thinking if I were to tell him tomorrow, what would he say? I just get so worried that he will tell me he doesn't feel the same way and than what will happen the day after that? And the day after that? And the day after that? And then what will happen in the next year after that? Will it be weird between us and just stop talking to each other? It just soooooo stressful" Nami said in a hurried voice, showing that she felt stressed. She then grew curios and confused as she heard Robin giggling.

"What are you laughing at?" Nami asked feeling a little angry, because as she is pouring her feelings, Robin is laughing.

" Its nothing. It just I thought when you said it was hard for you to say you loved him, I thought you had a serious reason. Nami, you have to understand, that is how people feel when you fall in love with someone. You get worried if the other person feels the same way and you don't know what to do. But that doesn't mean you should stop loving them. I know Luffy can be dumb at times, but it doesn't mean he doesn't have the same feeling for you. He probably doesn't know what he feels or he probably doesn't even know what is called, but you still have to believe don't you? You just have hope. Just try to spend more time with him and you will see what I'm talking about." Robin said smiling.

Nami was shocked in what she heard, and realized that she was right. She started to smile and nodded her head in understatement.

"I would ask you if you wanted to be in a relationship with Luffy, but I guess you would give me the same reasons?" Robin asked.

Nami nodded, saying yes.


Nami and Robin continued talking about Nami's feelings for Luffy and both were talking about how Nami feeling progressed in the past. Both were enjoying the conversation they were having a great time. Soon enough though, they were talking about joyous times they had in the time with the crew and both were reminiscing the past. Both were talking for so long and enjoying their conversation that the sun was up bright and early, signaling for the other crew members to wake up. Nami and Robin soon realized this too.

"Wow, we've been taking for a long time haven't we?" Robin asked.

"I guess so. I guess everyone is about to wake up right about now." Nami said as she was walking to her closet to get dressed for the day.

"Hey, Nami? Are you going to tell anybody else about your secret?" Robin asked, referring to Nami's crush.

"I don't think I'm gonna. I don't need anyone telling Luffy my feelings for him and I'm not going to take that chance." Nami said as she walked inside her closet and closed the closet door, trying to get dressed.

(Author Note: Let just say that Nami and Robin's closet is a walk-in closet.)

"Well what if I told them?" Robin said, trying to get Nami a little aggravated. Robin saw the closet door open, only to see a stern face.

"I'm begging you not to. I don't need anyone knowing. No matter what, don't tell anyone. Please?"

Robin started to laugh. " I promise, I promise."


As Nami and Robin are getting dressed, they could hear Sanji shouting...

"Everyone, breakfast is ready!"

"I guess we need to go I guess?" Nami asked.

"Yea, let's go." Robin responded. Both were finish getting dressed and were about to head out. As they were doing that, Robin started to sing. Trying to tease Nami.

"Luffy and Nami, kissing in the tree..."

Nami started to blush. "Robin stop, what if someone hears you?"

Robin started to sing more louder as both were walking to the door, trying to go outside." K-I-S-S..."

"Robin, pleaseeeee." Nami said with puppy dog eyes, trying to convince Robin. But Robin ignored Nami attempts.

"...-I-N-G. First came love, then came marriage, then came a baby in a baby carriage!" Robin said in Nami ear, seeing as Nami started to blush more. All this was happening while both were walking outside, heading to the kitchen. Though this all stopped when they started to hear someone running up to them. Next thing they knew, they heard Chopper screaming Nami name.

"Nami!"


Nami and Robin saw that Chopper was very close to them, trying to look for something in his bag. They soon saw that Chopper brought out a thermometer out of his bag.

"Here it is!" Chopper shouted.

Next thing Nami knew, Chopper jumped on top of her and placed a thermometer in her mouth.

"Wait mhmhmm." Nami exclaimed, trying to stop Chopper. But it was already to late.

Chopper jumped up again and pulled the thermometer out of her mouth and inspected it. The thermometer showed no signs of high-temperature and he was extremely confused.

"That's weird. Your cheeks are all flushed but you don't have a temperature. I think I have to do a further test." As Chopper was talking he turned into heavy point and was carrying Nami to the medical room.

"Wait, Chopper! Usopp, Robin do something!" Nami shouted, not wanting to be dragged into the medical room and have medical test

"Sorry Nami, but doctors' orders." Robin said with sarcasm, .

"Robin! Ok, fine have it your way! You can tell them but only Chopper! And only in the medical room!" Nami said.

"I thought you said..." Robin was going to continue but was soon cut off.

"Forget what I said! Just do it! And Usopp, if the crew ask what happened, just tell them I was getting a medical checkup with Robin!" Nami exclaimed.


Nami soon entered the medical room with Robin and Chopper, and was placed on the bed. She then saw Chopper transform back to his normal form and went to the other side of the room looking through the cabinets. As Chopper was doing that, Nami and Robin were talking.

"I thought you said not to tell anyone?" Robin asked in a whisper.

"I know!" Nami said in a loud whisper. "But if I don't tell him, he going to be doing tests on me all day. What the hell am I suppose to do?!"

"You could lock him up inside your treasure box." Robin said, giving a suggestion.

"Robin! That is mean!" Nami exclaimed. (Robin giggled in response)

"Here it is!" Chopper exclaimed. Nami turned over to Chopper to see what he was shouting about, but only to get scared right after. Nami saw Chopper take out a 4-inch needle(medical shots) and started to squeeze some of the medicine out of the needle.

"What the hell is that thing!" Nami shouted, pointing to the needle Chopper was carrying.

"Oh this?" Chopper said, flicking at it. "It just some medicine I'm going to give to you that you can feel better."

"Chopper, you don't need to. I feel fine." Nami said calmly.

"Are you sure? Your cheeks were all flushed, but you had no temperature. I have to do test on you to make sure you are not sick." Chopped informed.

"I am not sick. I promise." Nami said reassuring Chopper.

"Then why were your cheeks flushed?" Chopper asked, still not believing her. Both Nami and Robin were looking at each other, and having an inverbal conversation. Nami was shifting and moving her head, toward Chopper, signaling Robin to tell Chopper about why she had flushed cheeks. Robin nodded in agreement.

Robin then started to walk to Chopper, and whispered in his ear. Nami saw this and was curious on what Robin was telling what Chopper was saying. Nami saw that Chopper was nodding very much and seemed like he was understanding everything. It was until now, he faced Robin and had wide eyes.

"Really?!" Robin nodded.

Chopper then ran to Nami, jumped to Nami's lap, and started to shout...

"YOU LOVE LUFFY?!" Chopper said excitedly. Nami was surprised on how Chopper reacted, and placed her hand over Chopper mouth.

"SHHHHHHH! Someone might hear you." Nami said.

Chopper then got of her lap and started to run to the door...

"I have to tell everybody." Chopper exclaimed. Nami and Robin saw this and both got worried. Luckily, Robin was able to react quickly and grabbed Chopper before he can get outside.

"What are you doing Robin?" Chopper asked.

"Sorry doctor, but you can't tell anyone. Nami doesn't want anyone to know."

"Really, but why?" Chopper asked.

"I just don't want anyone to know right now. Can you please promise me that you won't tell anyone?" Nami asked.

"I promise, but I still think you should tell everybody." Chopper responded.

"I don't know if I will, but please just don't tell anyone. Please?" Nami asked with pleading eyes. Chopper nodded, saying yes.

All three of them talked for a bit before they left and both Chopper and Robin were teasing Nami. As Nami was walking to the kitchen blushing, Robin and Chopper were singing the song Robin was first singing and both were laughing.

The three walked into the kitchen and the next was history...
