"Neh, Sanji-kun?" Watching Sanji hard at work in the galley, Nami couldn't help but wonder.
"What is it, my dear Nami-swan?" Sanji looked over from the stove, where he was keeping an eye on two bubbling pots while also cutting carrots.
"How do you find time to make me these?" she tilted her head towards the exquisite little orange tart that he'd set in front of her with her tea.
"It's important to me, so I make the time," Sanji smiled at her, not missing a beat as he dumped the carrots he was chopping into one of the pots.
"But why? Wouldn't it better if you had more time to prep?"
Sanji actually stopped what he was doing, and turned to look at her with a slightly worried expression on his face. "Nami-san, do you not like this?"
"No!" Nami exclaimed, "No, these little treats make me really happy! I just..."
"Then it's fine," Sanji smiled at her, "If you're happy, I'm happy."
Nami thought about it for a second, then nodded. There was a moment of peace while Sanji worked at the stove, and Nami ate her tart.
A moment later...
"Neh, Sanji?"
"Hai, Nami-sa~!?"
Thunk!
"Ah?! Chopper!"
At Nami's call, the ship doctor ran through the door of the gallery to his patient, who was rapidly losing blood. Robin, who'd been sitting on the deck and heard the commotion, also poked her head through the open door to see what was going on.
Then she started laughing.
"Nami-san, you shouldn't do that while Sanji-kun's making dinner."
"I just wanted to make him happy! Besides, I'm still wearing a bikini top! Pervert..."
I set a goal to publish 2 things a week, so I'm hoping to update this every Wednesday and Saturdays when "I'll Do It" needs more revision time. These are going to be lightly edited, potentially related, dash'em off and post'em up deals, so apologies for the mistakes in advance. Wish me luck! Also, shout out to Corru on the r/fanfiction discord who helped me name this collection.
