1st Nakama

When morning came the Thousand Sunny was already in an uproar. Luffy, Chopper and Ussop were running around while Sanji yelled something about some missing food, meanwhile Nami and Zoro were frowning at the scene from a corner.

Robin had just opened her eyes and noticed the ruckus coming from outside. She took a few minutes to fix herself and went outside with only one goal on her mind: Nami.

As Robin opened the door she could still hear some commotion but it had settled down for now, she scanned the ship for the navigator and managed to see her while she was writing something down so she decided to go for a direct approach.

"Good morning Nami-chan!" she greeted with a smile on her face.

"Oh good morning Robin, I'm just finishing up this map, could you wait just a second, please take a seat I won't be long." answered the navigator clearly concentrated on her task.

"Of course." she replied while she gazed around. While she waited she caught a glimpse of Luffy eating some kind of meat, she was sure that had been the cause of the earlier events and she chuckled at that thought.

A few minutes after Nami started to put her newly drawn map away and directed her attention to the person sited across the table.

"So, what's on your mind?" she asked after noticing that Robin had been gazing at some place for quite some time.

As if she was suddenly brought back to reality the older woman looked like she was surprised at the presence of the young navigator.

"O-oh sorry I got distracted, what did you say?" she said looking mildly confused.

"Robin what's the matter you've been kind of absent lately, something happened?" asked Nami sounding concerned about her friend.

"Oh no, not at all, don't worry!"

"Okay... So what did you want to talk about?"

"Right, I was wondering what your thoughts on the captain were?" Robin asked with an apprehensive look on her face.

"You mean Luffy? He's a walking disaster, would swallow the ship if we ran out of food, and needs to start thinking things through!" said Nami amused at the question "but why the question?"

"Oh nothing! I was just wondering, since I wasn't around during your earlier adventures I suppose I wanted to learn a little more about our captain" she answered as if it was obvious.

"Well don't ask me! I mean like you've said I have been around almost since the beginning and I still haven't been able to figure him out..." she said as if her friend was asking the impossible "If you want to learn anything about Luffy you should ask Zoro, he has been with Luffy since the beginning of his journey and he seems to be the one who has developed the best understanding of him, though he's kind of an air head so I don't really know if he'll help."

Robin was surprised at how Nami said that, she was waiting for some kind of interrogation on why she wanted information on Luffy, but apparently it was normal for the crew to wonder how Luffy functioned.

"Thank you Nami." she replied curtly while walking off towards the kitchen.

"You're welcome I guess" the navigator answered re directing her attention to her maps.

Nami didn't seem to think much of Luffy, at least not the deep burning "admiration" Robin felt for him... from what she said it felt like she liked him but also thought that most of his actions were just childish. That's right she was now starting to see her "admiration" like she feared she would, she tried to deceive herself but it was clear that what she felt was much deeper then simple admiration, she had to admit it she had fallen in love with her captain...

After a small moment where she was immerse in her thoughts Robin decided she should follow Namis advice, and ask Zoro about Luffy, she decided she needed to know more about the young captain, she would fight to win his love, she admitted her feelings and now she saw that she wanted to be with him, even if all the odds were against her, even if it was impossible, she still wanted it, she wanted the impossible and she would fight for it, because her heart had been healed by him, and he was the one who brought light to her world...

Once she reached her room she stopped hinking about Luffy and started looking for a book and decided it would be better to rest for a while, after lunch she would think about her next move.

"Oi! Lunch is ready! If you don't want to eat the scraps left on the dishes you better hurry!" announced Sanji towards his male companions and soon after he started to call for the rest of the crew in a completely different manner. " Robin-chwan, Nami-swan! Dinner is served come and taste the delicious treats I made just for you!"

"Hey Chopper look at what I can do!" said Ussop mockingly while he supported a plate with his tongue.

Chopper bursted out in laughs as soon as he saw Ussop but Luffy was nowhere to be found, and this was something to worry about since it was lunch time!

"Neh Ussop, where's Luffy?" asked Chopper after nearly choking.

"That's right, I don't see him around..."

Soon both Ussop and Chopper were scanning the ship for Luffy and it didn't took them long to find him. He was sleeping under the orange trees.

After dismissing all of the cooks' attempts to flirt with her Robin met up with Nami and the three of them headed off to eat lunch.

Once they arrived they say Ussop and Chopper carrying a sleeping Luffy with a mischievous smile on their faces, of course to Nami and Sanji this was just part of the trio's usual games, but Robin once again found herself looking deeply towards Luffy, his sleeping face was rather interesting...

She was rapidly brought back to reality once Zoro passed by her. Luffy's 1st nakama, the person she needed to talk to next.

Zoro had always left her uncomfortable she didn't feel like she could ever talk about her feelings with him, so she would need to approach him without him noticing her real intentions.

"Look an island!" Her train of thought was interrupted by Ussop.

Everybody stood up looking at the new island, it was small, and seemed like there was nobody living there. While everyone talked about what they wanted to do on the island Robin was in her own world thinking about a way to talk to Zoro.
