Hey guys! I'm gonna squeeze in one more chapter for today! And thanks for the reviews guys! I enjoy reading them!

Let's begin!


I must've fallen asleep after I was taken into the infirmary, because I had woken up. Rubbing my eyes, I felt that my hair was partially still sticking to my face. Brushing it off, I sat up from the infirmary bed. "Oh, Lisanna-swan, you're awake!" I heard Sanji chime next to me, as I looked over, seeing him sitting in an upward position on the other bed. I nodded, smiling a bit. "Yeah, what happened after I fell asleep..?" I asked, shivering a bit. I wrapped the blanket on the bed around me, as I looked back at Sanji. "Well, Chopper just gave us a quick check-up, but told us to get some rest." he replied, him wrapped in a blanket as well.

Taking in the information Sanji had given, I sighed. "How long was I asleep?" I asked. "About.. two hours." I rubbed my eyes again, yawning. I looked out the window, seeing it was dark out. Frowning, I snuggled into the blanket's warmth some more, still feeling chilled to the bone. Just thinking of the events that happened made me cold, and slightly scared. Sanji probably noticed the small frown on my face, because he looked at me, looking a little worried. "Are you okay, Lisanna-swan?" he asked me. I quickly replaced the frown with a smile, as I looked at him. "Yeah, just a little cold is all." I replied, hoping he would buy my smile. "I can give you my blanket if you are cold." he offered me.

I shook my head, denying it. "No, you need the blanket as much as me, Sanji." I replied, looking at him. He still looked like he wanted to give me it, but once I gave him another smile, it seemed to convince him. "How long did Chopper say we had to be in here?" I asked, curling up a bit more inside the blanket. "Until we weren't cold anymore. I mean, I'm fine, but I can wait until you are ready to go, Lisanna-swan." he gave a small smile. I couldn't help but smile a bit wider at his statement. 'He's so thoughtful.. then again, I AM a girl.' I embraced the blanket's warmth more, trying to get warmer so I wouldn't keep him in here for too long.

Unfortunately, it wasn't working, as I was still shivering a bit. No matter how much warmth I tried to collect from the blanket, it seemed to just fade away. My skin was a little pale, and I was pretty cold. I looked on my wrist to see if my hairband was still on it, and thankfully it was. I pulled my hair up into a ponytail, making sure it would stay. Sanji was quiet during this. I stood up, leaving the blanket on the bed. "I'm ready to go now." I smiled, even though it was a lie. I was still freezing, and I don't think Sanji was convinced either. "But Lisanna-swan, you're still shaking.." I shook it off. "I'm fine, Sanji. I promise." I gave a re-assuring smile. He probably didn't buy it, but he didn't object it either. He nodded, putting on his shoes. I did the same, even though they were pretty damp from the water.

Sanji held open the door for me, as I nodded a thanks when I walked out. He followed behind me, as we walked out onto the deck. A wave of coldness swept over me, as I shuddered. This didn't go unnoticed, as Sanji looked down at me with worry. "Lisanna-swan, we can go back and wait some more if you need it." he told me, as I heard the smallest hint of worry in his voice. I shook my head, turning a bit and looking up at him. "It just surprised me is all. I'm okay." I replied. He still didn't look convinced, but he didn't want to object a lady. "I could go for some hot coffee right now, though. Could you make me some?" I asked, smiling. His small frown was replaced with a smile, as he nodded. "Of course!"

We entered the kitchen, where everyone sat. They all looked at us, and Nami was the first to speak. "How do you feel?" she directed it for both of us to answer. "I'm perfectly fine, Nami-swann! I'm so honored that you were worrying about me!" Sanji swooned once more. I giggled, as Nami forced a smile, and Robin giggled along with me. "What about you, Lisanna?" Usopp asked me, wanting to know of my condition, along with everyone else. "I'm fine, just a little tired. But I'll live." I replied. Everyone seemed to become less tense as this, as Luffy split a grin. "Great! Sanji, make some food!" he cheered, Usopp and Chopper cheered along with him. "You gluttons can wait, the ladies come first!" Sanji yelled at them, as they whined in protest.

Sanji had gotten my coffee ready, as well as Robin's. He served it to Robin first, and then me. "Thanks, Sanji." I smiled. He smiled back at me, obviously gushing that Robin and I had thanked him. Nami had told him she didn't want anything, as she would wait for dinnertime. Sanji had begun to prepare dinner, as everyone began to spark up conversations around the table. I sat there quietly, sipping my coffee. It was so hot, but my slightly numbed tongue didn't mind it at all. It was warming me up from the inside..

Eventually, Sanji had finished up with the dinner portions, and as usual, gave Nami, Robin, and I ours first. We all thanked him, as he got the men's portions out on the table. Which of course turned into warfare, as everyone dove in to get their share. Zoro was the only one that acted civilized out of them, since Sanji doesn't usually eat when we all do. Which still kind of bothered me, since I really never got to see him eat. I decided I would stay after dinner, just to see if he did. I continued eating my delicious meal, it helping me warm up more on the inside. I smiled, as I wasn't cold anymore. Dinner passed by rather quick, but I guess that was because I was actually having a conversation for once with everyone. Even though it was mainly asking if I really was alright, I was happy I was talking to everyone.

Dinner eventually passed, everyone clearing out of the room. I stayed though, as I began to gather up some dirty dishes off the table. Sanji turned around, seeing I had taken his job. "Oh, Lisanna-swan, you don't have to do that!" he looked, as I turned to him, holding a rather large stack of dishes. "I can help you! After all, you did help me today." I smiled. He couldn't stop the small smile that spread on his lips. "Well, if you say so.. I appreciate the help." he smiled. I walked over to the sink, still smiling, as I set them down into it. I turned on the faucet, as I began to wash some of them. Sanji was cleaning off the counter and stove, making sure it was ready for the next use. "Sanji, why don't you eat? I can clean up the kitchen tonight."

He looked at me, a little surprised. "But Lisanna-swan.." I looked at him, giving another smile. "Go ahead, I can clean up here. I didn't eat all of my dinner, so if there's nothing for you to eat, you can eat mine." He looked at it, not wanting to eat a lady's food. "It should still be warm, so you should eat it soon." I turned back to the sink, continuing to wash the dirty dishes from dinner. Sanji obviously wasn't used to this, but he didn't want to make me upset or angry. I gave him a clean fork, taking my own. He sat down at the table, and sat there for a moment, before he began to eat. I smiled, feeling victorious on the inside. As long as I got to see him eat something with my own eyes. It was also another form of repaying him from saving my life from that Sea King and from drowning. It might sound weird of me to be like that, but I didn't care. After all, I didn't eat much of my dinner. Why?

To make sure Sanji ate something.


Done! Sorry if it was a little short, it was a rush against time since my computer is about to die. Reviews are appreciated!
