o.o~0.0~O.O Ch. 2 - Some Hot Chocolate O.O~0.0~o.o

Luffy was still leaning over the railing when everyone decided to go downstairs. Nami went to her room, deciding to take inventory of what she would need in the weeks to come. She also decided to check her "finance". She wouldn't want them running low for any reason whatsoever.

Robin had decided to make her way back to the dining room and picked up a book after setting her coat and scarf aside. Sanji decided to make everyone - ladies first, of course - some hot chocolate, coffee for Zoro. By now, he could easily tell who wanted what and what their preferences were.

Zoro went straight to his room. He wanted to take a nap. Normally, he would take a nap outside, but it was just too damn cold to do anything lately. He sure as hell wasn't going to freeze his ass off in the middle of the snow when he could be nice and comfy in his own bed.

As for Usopp? Well, he went to go bother Chopper and the two of them decided to play poker in the middle of the infirmary because it was too cold to play outside and the wind would just blow all the cards all over the place.

Franky and Brooke? Those two seemingly disappeared. Last anyone heard was that they were up top surveying the area. It wasn't anything new, so no one was worried.

After some time, Nami came out of her room because Sanji had called her to go get some hot chocolate. She knew that Luffy wouldn't go down just for hot chocolate, he would be up top looking at the scenery for one reason or other. So, she picked up her chocolate, picked up Luffy's, and went outside with them both. She walked up to his level. He was just sitting on the floor, looking between the rails. She sort of knew that he would be too cold to go up to the front of the deck. He was still human after all. He couldn't take all of that wind.

Nami took a seat next to him, but when he didn't notice her, she grabbed his hand and placed the warm cup in it. His hands were like ice against her fingers. With wide eyes, she watched as he jumped, not expecting her to be there. "When did you get here?"

"About a moment ago," Nami said, "what were you doing staring out in space like that?"

He shrugged, "No reason," he lifted the cup to his mouth, only to pull it back almost immediately when it was too hot on his tongue. Nami laughed at his facial expression as he grabbed some snow and stuck it onto his tongue to kill the burn. Then he stuck more snow into his cup and began drinking it that way. Nami shook her head. "It's not funny," he mumbled.

Nami giggled, pulled out a handkerchief, and handed it to him. He looked at it for a moment before he took it from her and wiped his mouth. "It is when you KNOW it's hot and you go and torture yourself by drinking it anyway."

He shrugged again and let the cup sit on his lap. It was so nice and warm. Nami shook her head again and stood up. She looked down at him for a moment before looking around. She took off her deep purple scarf, which was almost black in color, and lowered it around Luffy's neck. He gasped and looked at it as she carefully wrapped it around his neck and face. "There," Nami said, "now you won't get wind burn."

She paused for a second, "Luffy, why aren't you wearing anything warm?"

"I am wearing warm clothes!" He said, " See?" He pointed down at his long sleeve shirt, vest, and pants.

"What I meant by warm clothes, I meant a jacket, scarf, and gloves. Possibly even a hat to keep your head warm." She knelt down next to him and pinched a bit of his black long sleeve shirt. "This is so thin that it probably feels like you're in ice cold water with a bathing suit on. Aren't you freezing?"

Luffy knew he couldn't lie. It was obvious. He looked down at the water crashing against the ship below the railing. His eyes were hidden beneath his hat. "Nami...I don't have any warm clothes. This is all I've got. I didn't want to use your treasure to keep getting things I wanted so...I never bothered to tell you or anyone else."

Nami looked at him with wide eyes. "You're so silly, Luffy," Nami said, giving him a comforting hug. Luffy's face turned slightly pink at the unexpected contact, but it disappeared quickly enough. "That's what the treasure is for. It's to get things we need, not things we want. Luffy, you need a jacket and some warmer clothes. If you needed these things, you should have come to me right away. Now, you're going to have to stick with a couple of hand-me-downs until we dock next. And honestly, I have no idea when that will be." Nami rubbed his back and then pat his head. "Don't stay out here for too long, it's going to get chilly. Oh, and Luffy?"

He looked up to meet her eyes. She had a soft smile on her face. "You are my Captain, I am here to serve my Captain to the best of my ability. It's my job, as well as the others, to see to the needs of our nakama as well as our Captain."

Luffy stared at her for a second before he nodded. "Yosh!" He said, "I won't stay out too long, Nami, I promise!"

Nami smiled and turned to the stairs. She was going to recount. Now that she knew Luffy needed clothes as well as herself, she was going to do her best with splitting the money evenly to where they can both have something warm to wear as well as stock up on as much supplies as possible.

It was going to be a REALLY long week.


Yes! I created a moment with Luffy and Nami! I was trying to take it a little slow, but as I said before, this is my first OP fic, so bare with me!

Oh yeah, what I forgot to type in the last chapter was that I am completely welcome to criticism! I love criticism, but nothing too harsh, kk? I'm fragile...I don't wanna be yelled at and I don't want to be offended. Lol! But anyways, review please!
