All of Them

Nightime on the ship

It was midnight. Sanji would be in the kitchen chopping vegetables for breakfast that morning. Everyone else was asleep. It was Zoro's watch hour, but he would be sleeping, too. Robin and Nami were asleep. But since Robin was a light sleeper, Usopp would have to be quiet. Phoenix was out for a walk. She didn't sleep that often. As Usopp tiptoed past the girl's room, he checked to see if Luffy and Chopper were asleep. He had left some food for Luffy in the men's quarter, so he wouldn't come in the kitchen. Chopper was fast asleep, too. Usopp headed to the kitchen.

He knocked softly on the porthole window. "Psst! Sanji!" he whispered. "Sanji." He opened the door. "Sanji. I need to talk to you." he whispered loudly. Sanji looked different, almost weird, in his pajamas. Really, he looked weird in anything that wasn't a suit. He was baggy t-shirt and sweatpants. Then again, Usopp sported similar attire. Still on the tips of his toes, Usopp took a seat at the table.

"What do you want, idiot. Are you hungry?" Sanji's tone of voice seemed tired and irritated, and he continued to chop vegetables, despite Usopp talking to him. Usopp started to have second thoughts about this.

"U-u-uh, n-no." Usopp stuttered. Say it, he thought.

"Well, spit it out idiot. I have things to do if you want breakfast."

"I-i-i need some advice." Come on. Don't be a coward, Usopp thought.

"About?" Sanji was busy and did not feel like being disturbed.

"G-g-girls." Usopp winced. Don't kill me, thought Usopp.

"Huh." Sanji stopped chopping a took a seat across from Usopp.

"You need advice about ladies, eh." Now, he was interested.

"Ya. Like how to ask one out. The island is having an annual Lover's Festival tomorrow, and I wanted to ask this one girl out." PLEASE don't kill me, thought Usopp.

"Lover's Festival. I should ask Nami-san to go with me! Or Robin-chwan! Or Phoenix-swan!" Now can be my chance to have one of them fall in love with me, thought Sanji.

Usopp, with a fake smile and zero enthusiasm, gave Sanji a thumbs up and said," Ya ask 'em all."

Sanji smiled. "I'll help you as long as you don't us long as you don't us my tips on any of my women."

"Ha ha. Who are your women?" he was finally started to loosen.

Sanji's smile suddenly dropped. " All of them." Usopp instantly tensed up. He's going kill me, he thought.

Sorry. I know the chapter is short. It'll be longer next time. :P
