While Sanji was still preparing the meal, the other Straw Hats were having fun watching Usopp and Chopper making faces and dancing in the ship.

"Usopp!" Chopper was laughing. "You should have been there when we meet this superhero Sogeking! He was so funny!"

"Ahh, Chopper! I already know him, he was once part of my 8000 men crew and.."

"Really?! Sugoi, Usopp!" Chopper believed naively his lies, as usual.

"Seriously, Chopper..!" Nami began to speak but Robin had prevented her from doing it, using her Hana Hana no Mi.

"Shh" Robin whispered to Nami. "Let him believe that, it's so cute". Robin was really fond of Chopper's cuteness.

Chopper didn't notice anything anyway and was still laughing with Usopp, as Sanji came out of his kitchen to announce that the meal was ready.

He didn't show any special interest to Nami and Robin as usual and just said:

"I prepared a new meal for everyone, I hope you'll like it!"

And then, looking around him: "Is Natsume still sleeping?"

As it seemed obvious that Natsume wasn't there and was certainly still in the boys' room, Sanji went to look for him.

The Straw Hats were stunned.

"What's happening to him?" Usopp was wondering.

"Usually, Sanji likes to flirt with Nami and Robin" Chopper stated naively, as usual.

"Tch! Seems like our Love Cook has taken interest on young boys!" Zoro grinned.

"Have a problem with it, Zoro?" Franky asked "Even if he were gay, we are..SUPERRR crew ! and Sanji's our... SUPERRR bro!"

"Don't push it too far, ero-coke aholic! Not like I care about his sexuality or his tastes whatsoever anyway..."

"Such eternal rivalry!" Franky began to cry while playing guitar "SUPERRR tragic! SUPERRR moving!"

"It's his lack of talent that's tragic" Nami whispered to Robin who answered to her with a smile.

"Brooke, maybe you could give some music lessons to Franky?"

"Yohohoho!" the musician skeleton was feeling excited right now. "You reckon my talent, young lady! Maybe I still have for you to show me you pan.."

Before he could have finished his sentence, Nami had punched him in his bone head with her clima tact.

"Watch your words, Brooke you pervert skeleton!"

"Such violence from a young lady, makes me feel nervous!" Brooke answered. "Oh I don't have any nerve left, I'm dead! Yohohohoho, skull joke!"

Luffy was observing his crew talking about this matter but didn't say a word, as he was eating fish.

The scene looked amusing to me because he knew all of his crew men better than anyone and it was obvious for him that Sanji wasn't gay.

At the same moment, Sanji was in the boys' room and, as he saw Natsume sleeping in one of the beds, he didn't know how to wake him up. In fact, he wasn't sure he had the right to do it. Natsume's face looked like the one of an angel as he was sleeping.

Sanji decided to sit on a chair next to Natsume's bed but suddenly felt like approaching his face from Natsume's face, to see his face more clearly.

As his face was already close to Natsume's face, the young boy opened his eyes...
