"Hey, where have you two been?", called Franky, noticing his two crew mates enter the crowded banquet hall. "You've been missing out on some super entertainment, these Kuja really know how to get down, ow."

"And so many lovely ladies, not that they compare to you Nami-san. In fact if you would be so kind as to show me yo-"

"Shut up, you stupid pervert! Nami-swan's been through enough today without having to deal with your disgusting comments.", shout the chef as he placed the navigator gently on the floor beside their circle of friends.

"Like you're one to talk, Swirly Perv. I'm surprised you didn't try and make a move on her since she was chained up and injured.", commented Zoro without even turning to look at the cook. The swordsman had his face pressed against the smooth skin of Robin's exposed torso, his head nestled in her lap as she ran her fingers absentmindedly through his short green hair.

"Like I would ever take advantage of Nami-swan's vulnerability. I'm not some insensitive brute like you are, Marimo.", shouted Sanji.

"Tch, whatever I don't need cheap insults to help me sleep at night, you know because I actually have a girlfriend, unlike you.", said the swordsman lazily, a yawn escaping his mouth.

"You wanna fig-"

"Just sit down, Sanji-kun.", interrupted Nami, reaching up to grab the chef's hand and pull him down beside her.

"Yes, and perhaps you could be less antagonizing, Zoro.", added Robin, tilting the young man's face up to look at her. "They've had a rather trying day."

"Hey, I'm the one that you should feel sorry, having to run around this whole island carting around those two while these crazy chicks hunted us.", defended the swordsman.

"You did a pretty suck job considering you got captured.", said Sanji.

"Hey, I was just trying to keep everyone safe as opposed to you who were probably to busy having random skanks stroke your ego to notice we were gone."

"That's enough, Zoro." said Robin. "The important thing is that everyone is safe and back together."

"Robin's right, let's celebrate yet another unwanted adventure complete!", cheered the navigator, raising a water glass that had been placed beside her by one of the servers meandering about. "And to the beating our idiot captain will receive upon his return."

"Here, here!", cheered the pirates.

"Where is Luffy anyway?", wondered Sanji.

"He went off awhile ago with the Pirate Empress, I heard her saying something about giving him a special present in private.", answered Chopper. "I'm gonna go get some more of that chocolate milk, will you come with me Brook?"

"Certainly Chopper-san, my bones could use an extra dose of calcium, especially since I'm all bones. Skull Joke, yohohoho."

The tiny reindeer transformed into his natural form again, leaving the rest of his friends behind to speculate about the nature of his information as he and the musician left in search of the coveted sweet calcium-rich dairy product.

"You don't think?", asked Nami.

"No, I mean, it's Luffy.", said Usopp nervously.

"Does he even know, like how everything works?", wonder the cook aloud.

"I've never even heard him talk about girls before, have you guys?", added Zoro.

"I don't believe so. Aside from hugging and occasionally kissing Nami and I on the cheek, I don't recall Luffy showing any interest in women whatsoever."

"Come on guys, are we really debating whether or not Luffy-bro is you know..."

"See you can't even say it because you think it might be happening.", accused Usopp.

"Well, I mean it's not impossible. He's a man and she's a woman, they're both attractive in their own respects, and they spent two years together.", defended Franky. "It's not anymore unlikely than when Zoro-bro and Robin-sis got together.

"I wonder if this would be their first t-", started Sanji.

"Nope, I'm out. This just reached a new level of weird, and I'm done.", said Nami. "Robin let's go get something to drink."

"I could use a drink, would you boys like anything while we're gone?", asked the archaeologist.

"I'll take some juice.", said Usopp.

"Yeah, for you to stay here.", huffed Zoro, hugging his arms tighter around her waist causing her to giggle.

"I'll be right back, Zoro-kun, or can my big, strong swordsman not bear to be separated from me." , teased the historian, leaning down to whisper the last part into his ear.

"Tch, it's a lot easier when you do stuff like that.", shot back Zoro, trying to ignore the tingles coursing throughout his body at having Robin's warm breath on his face as she whispered sexily in his ear. Get a hold of yourself, Zoro!

"I would stop if your face didn't so clearly tell me that you enjoy it.", said Robin, moving her lips from the swordsman's burning ear to his lips. Their position made for an odd kiss, Robin hunched over Zoro's head in her lap so that her ample chest pressed against his cheek as their slanted mouths connected. "I'll be back shortly.", repeated Robin, kissing her boyfriend's scarred eye before gently extricating his head from her lap and standing. "Here, let me help you, Nami.", offered Robin, bending over to help the navigator balance on her good leg before wrapping her arm around the younger girl's waist and leading her off. Zoro watched them walk away as he internally fumed. He was sure his face was flaring an entirely new shade of red after the freaking peep show Robin had just given him. From his position on the floor directly across from the redheaded witch he had gotten a pretty nice view of the archaeologist's rather exposing dark underwear under her short purple skirt as she bent to help Nami up. That woman, she always has to tease me. How the heck can she have such a nice butt, and long legs, and pretty blue eyes, and a cute nose, and that annoying cute, sexy laugh that always seems to be directed at me, and such a great butt.

"Earth to, Marimo. Come in, stupid!", called Sanji, his hand waving above the distracted Zoro's face.

"What the heck, Loser?", yelled Zoro, shoving the cook's hand away from his face as he abruptly sat up.

"You're face was so red, we thought that maybe you had stopped breathing, guess that was too much to hope for."

"I'll make you stop breathing, or I could just wait for a girl to say hi to you and then watch you bleed to death."

"Let's fight, Cyclops!", shouted Sanji, bringing his leg up to kick at the swordsman's ribs.

"At least I don't have swirly eyebrows like you!", shouted Zoro, using Shuusui to block the cook's incoming leg while slashing at him with Wado. "I'll beat you pansy butt any day."

"There they go, Nami-sis and Nico Robin won't be happy.", commented Franky with a sigh.

"I don't think I'm getting that juice.", added Usopp, equally defeated sounding.

Nami/Robin

"So have you made any headway with those troubling feelings you mentioned awhile ago?", asked Robin as she helped Nami ease into a chair at the counter the servers refilled their trays at.

"Actually yeah. I'm sure you already know what was bothering me even without me telling you, so I'll just skip that part and say that I think we both understand each other a lot more now."

"So are you two involved?"

"No, and for now I think that's best. We're friends, we trust each other, and we're compatible, and right now I think we should keep it that way.", said Nami sternly. "Maybe in the future we could try something more, but right now we're both just happy knowing that we have each other there and that we're both would be willing to give it a shot after some more time to think and stuff."

"Well, I'm sorry that it didn't work out as you originally thought, but it sounds like you both came to a mutual understanding as adults.", commented Robin.

"Yeah, you wouldn't believe how 'real' he was when we were alone, maybe he'll get to the point where he's always like that."

"I'm sure if he knows that your the prize he will stop at nothing, just wait and see. Our crew has never been predictable, why should our relationships be?"

"Hehe, yeah. Our crew can definitely not be accused of being ordinary."

"Fufufu, now let's get those drinks.", laughed Robin.

Luffy/Hancock

"Wh-what do you think Luffy? Do you like it?", asked the snake princess nervously.

"I've never seen anything like it before, and it's all you?", asked Luffy, staring in awe.

"Yes, I had to show you in private since the elders and my subjects would think it improper behavior of a ruler."

"I can't believe you did this for me. I've never seen so much...MEAT!", yelled the straw hat captain. "Thanks Hammock!", said Luffy around a mouthful of steak.

"It was rather difficult to cook all of it without tipping off the chefs that I was doing what most consider servant work, but Mari and Sonia helped me learn how to prepare it after everyone had retired for the night in preparation for your arrival. Then sneaking through the halls to bring it all to my private chambers was also a challenge, but nothing would of stood in my way.", declared Hancock. "Just like how nothing will stand in the way of our love, now that I'm a good cook, you will finally accept me as your wife, won't you Luffy-sama?", whispered Hancock to herself as she watched the rubberman stretch around the room to grab the various proteins she had prepared.

"Thwif ish weally gwood Hammock! You shwould try some.", said Luffy.

"Of course, Luffy. Would you like me to feed you again like earlier?" He enjoys my cooking is this his way of saying he wants me to leave the island on his ship so that I can prepare delicious meals for him everyday and feed him in our bedroom?"

"Whatever you want. Shishishi, you know I really missed you, Hancock.", said Luffy. "After we finished this meat, you can come meet the rest of my friends, I sensed Zoro, Usopp, and Nami come back awhile ago."

He...missed...me! "Of course, Luffy.", said Hancock breathlessly.
