Hi all :) Sorry for making you wait so long. But well, right now i'm really busy ^^ I'm not able to keep up the speed of my last story xD Around one chapter a day is just to hard ^^

Thanks for all your reviews, i really appreciate them. And i'm really sorry i forgot about the whole clothes thing and such. *sweat drop* Well, i fixed it this chapter. I hope it's not that bad ~.~

Also, i tried to draw Sara, even though i think the nose is bad ~.~ too big but well, here it is http: // yfrog. com/ jybildeqj (just delete the spaces)

But now, on with the show. :D eeh .. the story *g*


Sanji had fallen asleep in an awkward and uncomfortable position on the chair he was sitting on. He didn't seem to be in a very deep slumber because every time he was about to lose balance on the chair his body jerked a bit and moved himself back into a more stable position. Almost falling from the chair and jerking back up. This sequence repeated itself over and over again.

By now it has already become morning and the first sun rays shone through the window and the curtains. In the sunlight you could see the fine dust twirling and moving in the air. Outside the room a few birds where chirping their song to greet the new day and the first people could be heard who made their way towards the port and the market.

Sara's chest was slowly rising up and down under her calm breathing until the sun rays hit her face and woke her up.

She opened her eyes and closed them again immediately because of the sudden brightness. She moved a hand up in front of her face to block the light and noticed that she wasn't wearing the same clothes as yesterday. She was wearing a new shirt. In fact it was one of Sanji's shirts, because Chopper had decided to change her into something clean instead of the dirty shirt she was wearing yesterday.

It had been a male shirt, like those Zoro was always wearing and it was far too big for a delicate girl like her and the little doctor had wondered to himself why she was wearing only the shirt and nothing else.

Sanji's shirt didn't fit her either but it was better than the old one. It reached slightly up to her knees and she almost looked like a big child waiting for some candy.

Sara looked around the room and tried to remember how she came here. Her eyes stopped at Sanji who was still almost falling and moving back again. She watched him for a short while and her memories came back to her. His attitude when she woke up the last time. The little reindeer and the big headache she had had.

She stood up from the bed and made her way to the bathroom to wash her face. When she looked into the mirror she stopped to look at herself. Something just didn't feel right, but she couldn't point out what it was.

She moved her hands towards her face, caressed her cheeks and her hair and wondered what it was that felt out of place. The numb feeling in her stomach didn't go away no matter how much she stared at her reflection. She shook her head in order to get the thoughts out of her head and splashed her face with fresh water.

She took one of the towels in the bathroom and looked at herself again. No matter what she did, the uneasy and uncomfortable feeling never left her.

Her thoughts were interrupted by the growling of her stomach. Sara was hungry, after all she hadn't eaten anything since yesterday. Or even longer?! She couldn't remember.

But she had no idea how to get something to eat. Should she wake Sanji up or should she let him sleep?

Suddenly a loud crash could be hurt which made her flinch and she quickly made her way out of the bathroom to see what had happened.

Apparently Sanji finally fell off of the chair in his sleep. He was lying on the floor, his hair was a mess and his face showed a expression of utterly confusion. He looked around and it was clear that he didn't remember that he fell asleep on the chair. His gaze stopped as he saw Sara standing in the door frame and he showed her a small smile.

That gave her the rest. She burst out in laughter and when she saw how Sanji's face became even more confused she even began to shed tears due to all the laughing.

After shrugging off his confusion Sanji stood up from the floor and watched intently as Sara was laughing while holding her stomach. It was as if her laughter was the sweetest sound he ever had the pleasure to listen to.

He stood there without moving an inch, enchanted by her melodious voice. He wished he could hear her singing a song.

Sara slowly stopped laughing and looked at the blonde haired man in front of her. Why was he looking at her like that?

Just in that moment her stomach began growling again and her face turned the shade of a ripe tomato.

Now it was Sanji's turn to laugh.

"We should get you something to eat right? Do you want to have something fast, or is it alright for you to wait for a few minutes? I could cook you something on our ship, I'm a cook you know?! But if you're really hungry we could also eat something in town."

"I don't want to cause you any more trouble than I already did, therefore I'm fine with whatever you decide."

She smiled at him sincerely and Sanji could feel his knee turn to wax.

"Let's go back to the ship. I want to speak to my Nakama too and it's possible to find some of them there already. We also have to ask Nami or Robin for something new for you to wear. You can't always walk around in one of my shirts right?!"

While talking, he laughed a little and when he watched at her more closely, he had to gulp and almost trailed off from what he was saying. Her bare legs, her right shoulder exposed because of the big shirt, her skin almost glittering in the sun. Her big round eyes, those beautiful green orbs, with the color like some depths out in the sea, looking at him, filled with innocence. Once again he had the image of an angel in mind and he felt his head becoming dizzy.

He gulped once more and put on a big smile to take his mind off of such dangerous thoughts.

"Let's go!"

He gave her a long coat so no one would look at her strangely because of walking around with only a shirt.

They left the inn and slowly made their way to the port. Through the market and past all the fancy stores with many interesting things to buy.

Sara looked around with a face like a little child in front of a huge chocolate cake and a huge bowl of strawberries next to it. She walked here and there, staring at the oddities spread through the whole town.

Sanji looked at her with a big smile on his face, thinking it was almost like watching over Luffy just without all the stress. Because even if she stopped sometimes she would always look after Sanji and if he walked too far away she would catch up to him so she wouldn't get lost. In other words, he felt as if walking a dog. A very adorable dog.

They reached the Thousand Sunny in no time and walked to the galley only to find that they were the first ones on the ship.

Sanji moved her to sit down while he made her bacon and eggs for breakfast, of course with a glass of fresh orange juice and a steaming hot cup of coffee. After serving her he sat down beside her and lit himself a cigarette.

"Eat until your full. If it's not enough I can always bring you some more. Just say so."

"It's alright. I think that's more than enough for me. Thank you Sanji. It tastes really great. You're a great cook."

He blushed a bit at that and grinned at her widely.

"You couldn't have given me a better compliment."

She smiled back at him and continued eating her breakfast with refined movements. Sanji stared at her hands and wondered where she had learned to eat like that. Maybe she was some rich princess or anything.

"When you're done eating I'll show you around the ship while we're waiting for the others."

She immediately beamed at him.

"Really?! That would be nice. From what I've seen it's a gorgeous ship. It looks exciting."

Sanji beamed right back at her.

"Yup, the ship is great. And my Nakama are too, even though there sometimes strange. I think you'll like them. But you know, now that I've made you breakfast and promised to show you around the ship, could you do me a favour?!"

She looked at him strangely.

"What is it? I don't think there's much I can do for you."

"I think there is. I would like you to sing something for me. I think it would sound great."

She laughed at that, relieved that there really was something she could do for him after he had helped her.

"Yeah of course. I'll sing something for you."

"Yay!"

Sara finished eating her breakfast and Sanji put her plates into the sink before they left the galley to walk out on deck.

The sun was shining down warm and bright on them and they sat down on the bench before Sara cleared her throat and started to sing the first song that came to her mind.

Walking through a dream

I see you

My light in darkness breathing hope of new life

Now I live through you and you through me

Enchanting

I pray in my heart that this dream never ends

I see me through your eyes

Sanji stared at her in awe and didn't know how to react. She really sounded like an angel. A clear voice that was able to sing every single tone nicely.

You teach me how to see

All that's beautiful

My senses touch your world I never pictured

Now I give my hope to you

I surrender

I pray in my heart that this world never ends

I see me through your eyes

Living through life flying high

She wasn't able to sing more because she was interrupted by a loud shriek. Sanji and Sara both jerked up at the sound and looked into the direction where it came from.

Chopper was standing there looking at her with horror in his eyes.

"What are you doing? You were sick yesterday. You should lie in bed instead of singing and standing in the bright sun. Not that I don't like your singing. It sounded great, but as your doctor I'm saying you should stay in bed. Robin, can she use one of the beds in the girl's quarter?"

He turned his head to face his Nakama that just stood there smiling.

"Of course. I can also search for something else for her to wear. I think she has the same size as Nami."

"That would be really great."

The reindeer smiled at her and then walked over towards Sanji while the girls took off under deck.

"What did you think you were doing? She's a sick person."

"She looked perfectly fine to me this morning. If she had been weird in any way I would have acted accordingly."

He was starting to get pissed. He had wanted to listen to her voice some more.

Chopper just sighed and walked over to the door to follow after the girls.

Robin handed Sara a pink pajama from Nami she could change into, so she could finally take off Sanji's shirt.

"Hello. I think we weren't introduced before. My name is Robin."

"Nice to meet you. My name is Sara."

"Nice to meet you too. I'm going now. Chopper will soon come to see after you. Please just lay down until he's here."

"Thank you."

The two women smiled at each other and after Robin left Sara laid down on the bed.

Just like this morning she felt as if something wasn't right.

She had a feeling as if the Thousand Sunny was somehow familiar to her, but she didn't know why or from when.

She decided to push those thoughts aside and drifted off into a sweet slumber. After all she still had a slight fever, even though she didn't notice how exhausted she was beforehand.

She smiled a bit before falling to sleep, thinking that maybe Sanji would take her out to town again.


See you :D
