Hello my friends! I am back! I have been busy with school shopping! But I am back! Here is going to be the partiful chapter of my story! It's going to have dancing, chatting, plotting, and even romance! And thank you so much Thomas and 2animefans! Those comments were great! I liked your idea Thomas! It gave me an idea for this chapter and the next one. And thanks 2animefans for telling me how much you liked my story. It really touched me how much you enjoy it. Well…Let's begin this chapter!

Disclaimer: I don't own Nami, Zolo, Sanji, Usopp, Chopper, Robin…and Luffy. But I do own Minnie, Tisia, Rei, Kani, Malvea, Thorn, Paine, Samina (Minnie's mom), Teoro (Minnie's dad), Yena (Minnie's 6 year old sister), Liza (Minnie's 9 year old sister), Sarah (Minnie's 11 year old sister), and Avageli (Minnie's 4 year old sister).

BIG Family.

Lawyers: Is she allowed to do that?

There's nothing in the book that says she can't. So it's allowed.

Me: Yes!

Or all of my hard work to name all of Minnie's family would have been wasted. (Does a victory dance)

Chapter 11: PARTY! And Romance!

That same night!

Everyone was having a good time. Usopp and Chopper were running around and dancing like crazy. Nami and Sanji were in an area where they could talk privately. Zolo was with Luffy. Trying to figure out another way to get Minnie to hang out with Luffy. Minnie and Trace were out on the dance floor having fun and dancing. Robin, Tisia, and Kani were all talking. While Rei was being chases by Yena, Liza, Sarah, and even Avageli. While Samina and Teoro were chatting about what was going on and about Minnie becoming a pirate and all of her new friends. Everyone was doing something. And about 75 of the house was filled with craziness.

(HK: Wonder how they can all fit in that backyard? Oh yeah…they are Minnie's backyard. There is tables set up and there is an area for dancing. If they want a drink or something they can go inside and grab a juice or soda from the fridge.)

"What are we going to do? We tried you talking to Minnie about hanging out more. Now what should we do Luffy?" Zolo asked his rubber friend.

"I don't know! That's why you are here!" Luffy said with a sigh.

Then they looked over and then saw that Sanji and Nami kissed. Their mouths gapped open. They NEVER expected that to happen.

(HK: Hey! (Is looking at the script) They went ahead! Oh forget it! We just have to improvise.

Luffy: But that isn't fair! Can I do that?

HK: No…sorry Luffy

Luffy: Oh man!

Trace and Zolo: Can we just get to the party/story already?

Tisia and Kani: Yeah!

HK: Okay…we already wasted enough time doing this)

Then as Sanji waved to Nami as she went over to where Tisia, Kani, and Robin were to talk to them. Zolo grabbed him in the middle of his mushy love sentence to Nami and made him with Luffy and himself.

"Hey! What's the deal? I was just saying bye to my precious Nami-san!" Sanji asked in a pissed off tone.

Zolo mumbled.

"What? I can't hear you Zolo can you not mumble. Or I am going to leave,"

"We need help…"

"You do? Well this is a first. With what?" Sanji asked in amusement.

"With Minnie,"

"Oh my God. Zolo has a crush on Minnie!"

"Not me you idiot! Luffy does! And can you keep it down. We don't want the whole world to hear!" Zolo said pulling the two into a huddle.

"You do Luffy? Is that why you have been acting so strangely for the past couple days?" Sanji asked his caption.

Luffy nodded as he used his hat to cover his blushing face.

"Well…now I see. Did you try talking to her Luffy?"

"Yes…and it didn't work out very well,"

"Hm…why don't you try to go onto the dance floor and dance with her?"

"That's a good idea! I am going to try it. Thanks Sanji!" Luffy said with a smile of hope as he got up and went over to the dunce floor.

"Will you promise to keep it between us only? I don't think Luffy will be able to handle it if Nami or Robin heard this. They would probably tell Minnie. And Usopp and Chopper are like Luffy. So it would take a bit for them to understand to just shut their mouths. So how about it?" Zolo asked Sanji.

"Sure, I don't mind helping you guys out and keeping this a secret. I want to see how this will turn out anyway," Sanji said back.

At the Dance floor…

Trace had gone inside to get a drink. But Minnie was still going strong. Luffy waited until the song was over. When it was Luffy walked over. But when he did his older brother came with a drink for Minnie and they both walked off of the dance floor for a rest. Luffy felt his heart ache and then turned ablaze at his brother stealing Minnie away.

Luffy slowly but painfully walked back to Sanji and Zolo.

"It didn't work well?" Sanji and Zolo asked Luffy in an awkward unison.

"No…she left the dance floor to chat with Trace," Luffy said in a sigh.

"We can try again when they are done," Sanji said as he placed a hand on Luffy's shoulder when Luffy sat down.

"Okay Sanji…" Luffy said in disappointment.

But as the night went on. Minnie was called away before Luffy could say anything to her. This was not only Trace. This was EVERYONE! From her family members. To her close friends. To the crewmembers. This was becoming irritating. Especially since every time Luffy came back to Sanji and Zolo. They just said, "We can try again when they are done," or " Don't worry. You will talk to her soon".

But so far what they were saying wasn't coming true. And Luffy couldn't take it anymore!

This time as Luffy came back he looked really ticked off.

"Luffy, Don't worry you will-"

"Talk to her soon? I don't think I am going to be able to talk to her at all tonight! I have been trying all night to get her attention. But nothing is working! I am getting sick of it! I am mean REALLY sick of this! I can't even get close to her without her getting called off somewhere by somebody else!" Luffy had cut Sanji off and was now on an anger provoked by love rampage.

"Luffy! We are only trying to-"

"Help? Well right now it's not working! I am going to go outside!" Luffy cut Zolo off this time.

"But Luffy, we are outside," Sanji and Zolo said in unison.

"The front of the house outside!" Luffy said back in fury and then stormed off to the front porch of the house.

As Luffy left his two helping hands of love in a shocked state. Minnie looked away from Robin and their discussion about books and saw Luffy slam the door. And began to get worried. So she followed the irritated 17-year-old boy to the front porch. He didn't notice Minnie come out. So she just stayed quiet until it was the right time to say something.

"No matter what I try to do…Minnie doesn't notice me. She only pays attention to my older brother, Trace. She's never going to talk to me," Luffy said as he hung over the railing of the porch. What Luffy said made Minnie realize what she had been doing. Hanging out with everyone. Except the one who made her apart of her new family. The person who was the first person she actually spent alone time with. The person who made her happy and wouldn't accept seeing anyone down in the dumps. She was ignoring Luffy.

She then walked over to behind Luffy and placed a hand on his back. Which made him jump up and turn around to see Minnie's sad face.

"I am sorry Luffy…I didn't know I wasn't spending time with you. Everyone else was distracting me that, I wasn't spending any time with you. The person who I told I was going to spend time with. That night under the stars. I am so sorry Luffy," Minnie looked like she was about to cry. She hugged Luffy when she finished what she was saying.

Luffy blushed. From both her hugging him. And the memory of when she gave him the kiss on the cheek. He looked down at Minnie. Then hugged her back.

"Luffy, to make it up to you. We can spend tomorrow together. For the whole day! And it will only be you and me. What do you think?" Minnie asked him as she looked up at his face.

Luffy was now the one in shock. He had been trying to ask her that question. To be alone with her, for the whole day, it was like a dream. And now it was actually the other way around. Since now it was her asking him that question.

Luffy smiled his big goofy smile and said, "Sure! That would be REALLY cool!"

"Um…do you want to just hang out here for the rest of the night Luffy? We can still hear the music from here. But we can just talk. And we can sit down on the hammock," Minnie asked Luffy as she pointed to the hammock that was being blown by the wind peacefully.

Luffy nodded and both him and Minnie sat down on the hammock. Minnie rested her head on his shoulder. And Luffy wrapped his arm around her shoulder as they talked about stuff like. What were their likes and dislikes and stuff like that.

I hope you enjoyed that! It took a bit to come up with that. But it all came from Thomas' idea. Thank you again Thomas. And all of my friends/fans! You guys are the greatest. And keep reviewing! .
