Please write what you think about this.


The night was filled with speckled starlight along the dark sky, and the light waves washed, resonating upon the ship's hull making a calming splashing noise. Sitting on the ship's frame was a familiar raven haired woman, composedly holding a wineglass as it reflected the sparkle of the moon on the red wine she's whirling with her right hand, looking with a face of content and stress free.

Nico Robin was having a calm expression, alone in the middle of the night, reclining her back. Then a known voice came into hearing, speaking to her. "...Robin"

She glanced the one who spoke. It was her friend, and also her rival. Known for her orange wavy hair and a pretty young face. Wearing a frilled white nightdress that would probably mistake her appearance as somewhat ghostly from afar. Ultimately, she looked really beautiful, even though it's a wear for sleeping.

Robin asked her her purpose. "What did you come here for, Nami?"

Like a girl who's confessing her love, Nami shyly stated her business. "...I'm here to talk to you about earlier."

"What do you mean?"

"Earlier during lunch. I've spoken to you quite rudely... I'm sorry about that." She stated quite embarassed. Not on the way of how she looked stupid right now, but on how she's acted upon earlier.

Robin stood up, facing her. "No, I'm the one who started it. So I should be the one to apologize. I'm really sorry about that." And then she followed. "I acted without thinking...well, it's because I was..." She could not say it, and so she averted her gaze.

Nami let out a chuckle. "Ahaha~ I know, it's because you were jealous, right?"

Robin hesitated. "...Well, you could call it that." Saying as she avoided the other woman's eye contact. "I'm really sorry about that Nami." Sounding apologetic.

"Please don't be. I responded to you harshly."

"Then I guess it's okay to think that both of us have owed each other an apology." Robin smiled.

"I guess so." Nami smiled back.

The woman of Ohara raised a bottle of wine. "I don't think I could be sleeping yet. How about it, care to join me for a drink?"

Nami beamed at this. "Absolutely!"

They both sat across each other, pouring each other's glass and talking heartily, like how fine woman such as theirselfves would.

"By the way, uh...Robin, what did you two spoke about earlier with Luffy in the library?"

The archaeologist answered her. "I guess it should be fair to say this to you...that Luffy is planning on getting married."

By hearing this, Nami unconsciously raised her voice. "What!? With who? Don't tell me it's you..."

Robin grew an arm and covered Nami's mouth to stop Nami from yelling. "Calm down, you're misunderstanding it. I said he was still only planning on getting married. He said to me just yesterday, and to be truth, I was dumbstruck. And so he came to me earlier asking more about marriage, he was that curious."

Nami was in awe. "Knowing our captain, he must be dedicated to it."

"Fufu~ Well yes... He even told me that he is looking up for his new adventure. He's so cute, It's hilarious, ." Robin stated with a giggle.

Nami just smiled as she sips her wine, recalling Luffy. "That idiot." She then asked. "So what did you talk about earlier?"

Robin took a sip. "Well...He asked me what should do before being married. And so I answered him that it first needs to come to a process, such as dating and confession."

"Haha~ Knowing him, he should probably have asked you many questions."

She giggled. "Well yes, he did."

"But, don't you forget that I too would want to be his adventure, okay?!" Nami puffed up her cheeks.

Smiling playfully. "Of course, I won't forget. But you need to go through me before that happens. However whether whoever our captain would choose between us, I hope that we could still be as what we are right now."

"Of course!" Then came into a conclusion with her thought. "But what if theres more to it that just us?"

"What do you mean by that?" Robin asked.

Concerned "I'm saying if there will be more woman who likes Luffy. No, what if there's many of them!? There's no way we-.. no, I would have a chance!"

Robin was already aware of another rival's existence named Boa Hancock. As what Luffy have said. She's the woman who's been with their captain for two years. Who knows how close their relationship could be? And she is already popular, across the world. Having the title of The most beautiful woman in the four seas. Now who would not feel threatened when that woman of that title was immensely obsessed with their captain. However, Robin was confident not only with herself, but with her looks. But thinking about it, Luffy doesn't look at a person based on their appearance, so it shouldn't really be a matter. "Well, I guess you should only focus on the now... Whether there would be more girls lining up for the Pirate King. Right now, the only match you have is with me. Fufu~" The known collected archaeologist cockily retorted.

Nami playfully replied. "Hoo... you seem to be confident with yourself. Don't forget that I won't go down without a fight."

"..."

A pause

Then they both giggled at each other.

And so, the night continued as these girls shared a cup and a conversation with each other. No matter what may happen, they will always be best friends.


The sun rose as the early morning shone upon the ship.

Luffy got up with a yawn, as soon as he got out of the men's chambers. Others were still sleeping, while some were already gone, assuming they got up early. He walked straight outside and climbed up the Sunny's head, smiling as he usually does, he sat with content as he reclined backwards balancing himself with his hands, inhaling the early breeze of the ocean then he talked. "I...we are going to leave this ship soon, Sunny." He talked with the ship sentimentally. "I'm really sorry about it. It was a great experience being with you, thank you for bringing us into Raftel. Thank you for everything, Sunny." He softly rubbed it's head. "Forgive us for leaving." Smiling sadly, he looked down.

All their dreams were fullfilled, he knew that all of them have no reason to stay anymore. Where it all started was here, they rode this ship for the sole purpose of attaining their own dreams, now that they have done so. Then it will be the time to leave. Luffy was afraid of the moment to come, but he's the captain, he is responsible. He decided that he will disband the crew when he finally reached his hometown.

"..."

After talking with the Sunny for a while, he finally stood up and walked straight to the dining room where breakfast was probably prepared by now.

"Breakfast is served, captain!" Sanji greeted him as soon as he opened the door to the dinner room.

He saw them already seated and is now ready for breakfast, he couldn't help but chuckle by the sight of his friends. "Shishishishi~ Good morning everyone!"

"Don't raise your voice early in the morning." Zoro grumbled,

"Everyone seems lively." Nami said satisfactorily

As soon as Luffy took a seat, Robin greeted her. "Good morning, Luffy!"

Luffy looked at Robin and seeing her smiling so brightly as day. "Oh, Good morning Robin!"

Nami amusingly snuck in. "You seem to be forgetting about me."

"Shishishi~ Good morning, Nami!"

"Yohohoho...And me too!" Said Brook butting in.

"Good morning, Brook!" Luffy's smile was reaching up to his ears, he couldn't be any more happier seeing his friends being happy...until.

"Okay, here you go." Sanji placed the food on the table.

Luffy's eyes were hearts just by seeing the meat on the table. "It looks delicious!"

"Luffy, leave some for us!" Usopp yelled.

Chopper agreed. "Damn you, evil pirate king!"

"Now, having just meat is not good...try this." Robin out of the blue, offered a fork of salad towards Luffy's mouth.

Luffy was not a fan of vegetables, but food is food, so who is he to refuse. Like a puppy being offered a food right towards it's face, he chomped down into it, saying no single word after that, he continued to eat his meat.

Seeing this, Nami just narrowed her eyes in annoyance. 'Seriosly, doing that much effort just to offer him a salad?..' It was because Robin almost stood while stretching her whole hand and body just to let him try that salad. And Nami was in between them, making her irritation valid.

After retracting her hand, she sat back scrupulously, then looking at Nami as if, challenging her, looking someone high and mighty.

Nami was now tick off, smiling so casually as a vein popped on her head. 'Hohhh...so you're challenging me! Aright, I'll take you up on that."

Luffy was eating messily, and he couldn't care less as sauces drip down his lips, he could just lick it off, however he did notice a splattered sauce on his lower lips. And so, Nami took this opportunity. "Luffy, don't move for moment."

Luffy stopped for a bit. "Huh?"

Nami being next to Luffy stretched out her hand and rubbed the bottom part of his lips with her thumb, lusciously saying. "There's something stuck on your lips." Bringing her thumb close to her mouth, she licked the sauce, kissing her thumb as she winked at him. "Mmnn.."

Having this kind of treatment, a normal boy would be red embarrassed by having to be experiencing that kind of show. However, Luffy was different, well, simply saying it is because he is not normal.

Nami should be cockily looking at Robin right now. However, she could not bear to... There's only one thing she's feeling right now, REGRET. She realized what she have done, and embarrassment came in automatically. She could not bear to look at anyone's faces as she just slumped down face as red as if she was hanged upside down.

"Huh? You could've just tell me to wipe it off." Luffy told her.

"Aghhhh..." Nami laying flat on the bed screamed at the top of her lungs while burying herself in a pillow. "Why did I do that!? Why did I do that!? Whyyyyyy!?? Wahhh!..." She was hiding her face and flapping her feet in shame.

Robin sweat dropped, even a genius scholar would find himself on a difficult situation to try and comfort this poor hopeless girl. Instead, she just placed her hand on top of the navigator's head. "It's already been done, just live with it."

"That's not really comforting, Robin!" She whined. Then raised her head and looked up straight into the older girl's eyes. "Oh, yes...I know a solution! Why not just bury me down?"

Robin calmly retorted. "Nami, we're in the middle of the ocean."

"Then how about tie me down with chains and throw me away?"

Robin, with a smile simply answered. "Sure, get up, I'll do that for you."

Frightened, she pressed her face back in the pillow and whimpered. "...Don't want to"

"Fufu~" the woman of Ohara was amused.

Nami continued. "However, I think what we did is wrong."

"..."

Turning her head to the side to be able to speak clearly. "I want Luffy to have feelings for me. Don't you too, right? Yet what we did was to compete with each other, we completely forgot the reason behind our purpose, and instead acted for our own pride."

Robin realized, and now she felt bad for Luffy, he became an instrument of their own selfishness. "You're right... I'm sorry about taunting you." She also wants to apologize to Luffy right now, but it would not really mend anything, he would not understand it anyway.

"Well, it's okay, I am to be blamed too." Nami sadly said.

"It is an issue we could no longer solve, nevertheless it's already been done. So why not just forget about it? The weather seems to be nice, I suggest to relax and go outside and enjoy? Hmm...?" Robin suggested to persuade Nami to forget about her shameful burden.

The orange haired navigator tardily got up. "... Okay"
