Theme 24 1000
Sanji put the finishing touches on the dinner for tonight and took a step back to gaze at his masterpiece. The small table in the galley was covered in plates of food, piled high with delicious morsels of food. He'd really outdone himself and he was just a little bit smug.
Tonight was special and he would be disappointed if his nakama didn't mention something, although he guessed he would be the only one cooking the food.
Well, tonight was the one-thousandth dinner he'd made for the crew ever since he started. He was damn proud of himself and he wasn't going to hesitate over something the others would think was so trivial.
A half hour later, the remamining crew dragged themselves into the galley and Sanji set about fawning over the women. They were awed by the amount of food in front of them, which had been his secondary goal to the whole meal.
"Is this a special occasion, Sanji-san?" ViVi asked, smiling at him as he offered her a clean plate to put her food on. At her question, the rest of the crew looked up, waiting for his answer. Before he could even answer, Luffy jumped in, using the distraction to shovel food into his mouth.
"This is our thousandth dinner, right, Sanji?" The teen grinned widely, giving the cook a knowing look before going back to his food. Sanji felt bood rise in his cheeks-out of all of them, it would figure the bottomless pit would remember something like this.
"Our thousandth dinner!" Chopper piped up excitedly, although this wasn't his thousandth dinner. He'd only been with the crew a few weeks.
Sanji turned towards the sink to start washing the dishes, his mind up in the clouds as the crew ate. He'd eat later when the crew was finished, but until then he would bask in this celebration and make sure Luffy didn't eat everything on his own.
