Post Time Skip time ouo Hope you enjoy~

I wonder if Sanji is still waiting on me. Waiting after how long? Two years? In a way, I hope not. But at the same time, I really hope so. Usopp laid one the grass of the Thousand Sunny, remaining as chill as can be. Since coming back together after two long years, interaction with everyone seemed the same. Even Sanji was his usual love struck self with the ladies, only he had horrible nose bleeds, one that almost caused him to die. He made no hints that he still felt the same for Usopp, and it wasn't easy to decipher if he even remembered. They seemed like they were being the same as always. I can't help myself now. I've been waiting and maybe, just maybe Sanji still likes me? I've been wanting to ask, but I'm too chicken to bring that up again.

He felt bad. Maybe he should've taken Sanji's advice with the kisses, maybe they should've moved to the next step just to see what was going to happen. But that wouldn't have done anything to the Usopp two years ago. He spoke truth when telling the cook that he had no feelings for him at all. Today, now, in present time, he had something of a crush building up. His cheeks slowly turned a bright pink. Would he be mad at me?

"Lunch is ready everyone!" Sanji called out from above. Lunch. Oh, right, I am hungry! Food came right on time. His stomach began to growl. He stood up and hurried up the steps. Sanji had a huge grin on his face. "I made sure to put a lot more sweets in this batch since that's what everyone's been craving lately. And I asked Franky to pull a table out here in the open since it's such a nice day! So, everyone dig in, and Luffy don't you steal food, you hear me?" The rubber captain just grinned, nodding as though he understood but it was obvious that he did that just to get the chance to eat. The crew was all gathered together at the table again. It seemed like this was only a couple days after their last little banquet together. Only it was two years ago this had happened. Sanji handed out more plates filled with delectable sweets and condiments to match. The table looked more like a sweet wonderland built for smaller people. Luffy and Chopper licked their chops, rubbing their hands—or hooves in Chopper's case—together aching for a taste. Zoro just stared down some pie and averted his attention to the cake right next to it. If he was quick, he could steal a piece from both before Luffy charged in. Robin sipped her tea and hummed in satisfaction. She wanted to try the bite sized donuts next to the sweet smelling dumplings. Nami bounced in her seat trying to plan out with flavor or cupcake she wanted to try first. Franky had a bit of a crisis going on in his head. Would he be able to grab cinnamon rolls without knocking over the stack of cups beside it? Brook didn't care what he got first. As long as he tasted the delicious funnel cake that sat in front of him, regardless of his lack of taste buds. Usopp smiled when seeing the sour looking candies on the sides of the cake. Sweet and sour all packed on this amazing cake. Sanji never ceased to amaze him.

"Dig in guys." Hands quickly reached out ward and grabbed what they could. Already, Luffy's mouth was covered in powder and fruit filling. He smacked loudly and kept stuffing his mouth. Zoro had to stab Luffy's hand to ward him off from his food. Tough love, Usopp thought. It probably didn't hurt the captain much. Robin's extra limbs slowly brought unreachable food her way. There was no use in asking 'Please pass the whip cream' unless Sanji was around. Franky opened up a small hatch within his huge robotic hand to bring out a much smaller one. He eased it over to the cinnamon rolls and pulled it out safely. He then indulged in eating the tasty morsel. Sanji stood some ways away from his crew mates. He smiled as he watched them gulp down his food. He lit a cigarette, already having eaten before giving out the rest. He then moved on back into the kitchen to clean whatever he could just to take his mind of a certain someone.

I can't help but be a little mad with Usopp. How dare he not like Sanji in such a way before ;A;
