Steve's POV

Robin and I were sitting up in bed, she was reading a book she borrowed from the Minks, I was just watching her. She always looked so calm when she was reading, she'd let out these tiny little grins when she passed over something interesting or new, it was almost childlike in how adorable it was.

"Hey Robin?" I spoke leaning back on my pillow a bit.

"Hmm?" she didn't look up to acknowledge me "Yes?"

"I was just wondering, you know now that we're getting closer and closer to the end of this journey, approaching Raftel faster and faster…" I paused "What are you gonna do when it's over?"

Robin blinked for a bit before closing her book in thought "Well I hadn't put much thought in to it actually, why have you?"

I just shrugged "Nothing significant here or there."

"I suppose if I had to say something I'd like to write a book." She smiled.

"What about?" I asked a follow up.

"Everything I've learned." She explained "Provided what I find on Raftel isn't mind shattering in context I'd like to write the history of this world so that others can learn it, or perhaps I'll keep it all to myself since I haven't decided yet."

She snickered when she finished the last line.

"You're awful sometimes." I laughed at her "Now you're teasing the whole world."

"I suppose that's just my nature." She smiled "Why, what are you planning to do once this journey reaches its end?"

"Can't say I've thought to hard about it myself." I sighed "I always figured I'd just be a pirate forever I guess, once we get to the end there's nothing saying that the adventure has to come to a stop there, I doubt Luffy would be okay with that, but now with you and Lil around I don't know if that's the kind of life I want to live forever."

"Hmm, yes." Robin hummed a bit "Sometimes plans change, but I'll be happy with whatever you decide, whether that means we're on a boat, on an island or something else."

She took my hand "So long as we're together I don't care what we do."

"Hmm." I smiled at her as she leaned on my shoulder "Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. You know it's funny, this whole wedding thing of Sanji's."

"How so?" she asked.

"Not to sound presumptuous but I always figured if anyone on the crew got married it'd be me and you." I laughed a bit "Or at the very least we'd be the first."

"Why, do you want to marry me?" she asked.

"I mean…" I blushed a bit.

"Well?"

"Yeah I do." I smiled "You're the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with, I want you to be the Pirate Queen to my Pirate King."

"Fufufu, well then when you become King of the Pirates." She kissed me "You can ask me."

"It's a promise." I smiled.

"Now there is something I wanted to discuss with you and it really can't wait." She paused.

"Hmm?"

"You need to go see Luffy." She told me.
