- Sanji is upset or hurt and luffy tries to “fix” him by giving Sanji food, but not just any food…luffy’s food.

Sanji hung a cold towel over the back of his neck, wincing a little at the cold temperature before letting out a small sigh. Sweat plastered his forehead and his button up clung to his back with an unflattering feeling. Warm would be an understatement for how the kitchen felt. To Sanji, it felt as if the mid-day sun was burning a hole straight through the wooden ceiling.

Opening the small window above the sink had done little except invite more humid air into the kitchen. A short huff came from the cook as he dejectedly sat down. He raised his arms above his head, a couple of pops sounding shortly after and granting a bit of reprieve to his aching body.

The crew’s latest battle at Alabasta had done more than a number on them and Sanji was definitely feeling that residual pain. It didn’t help that it was certainly hot enough to get off with minimal reprimand from Chopper if you happen to take off your bandages. The swordsman had definitely taken advantage of that.

So, bandage-less and sweaty, Sanji rested his forehead against the table’s surface in front of him and closed his eyes, tired eyelids relishing in the action.

He hadn’t even noticed he had fallen asleep until something soft poked at his cheek, Sanji frowning but still keeping his eyes closed, hoping that whatever or whoever it was would leave him alone. Another poke, this time followed by a whine that had Sanji peeling his eyes open in disappointment.

“Sanji~” Luffy’s face was right in front of his, the captain’s breath puffing over his nose as the younger pouted, eyes twinkling when they met Sanji’s. “Sanji~ I’m hungry.” Luffy’s hands gripped his stomach in faux agony…or many it was real agony, Sanji was never sure when it came to his captain.

Sanji’s dry lips stuck together a little bit before breaking apart, his head throbbing as he lifted it up to confront the problem at hand. “There’s food in the fridge,” he mumbled, hand pressing against his throbbing head as he tried to gather his thoughts.

“Sanji, you never leave the fridge unlocked for me,” Luffy’s pout grew and Sanji groaned in displeasure as the younger threw his stretchy arms around him, Luffy sticking himself to Sanji before letting out an amused sound. “Eww Sanji’s sticky.”

“Cause it’s hot captain,” Sanji brought his hands up, trying to push or pry Luffy from his body, missing the confused look in Luffy’s face, “Seriously it’s too hot, leggo of me.” Sanji huffed and Luffy’s eyebrows drew together, lips forming a small line as he puffed his cheeks out.

“It’s not hot, it’s like regular,” Luffy protested and Sanji rolled his eyes, finally managing to push Luffy off of him.

Hand pushing against the table’s surface, Sanji pushed himself upwards, grimacing as his whole body protested. He made his way over to the fridge, making sure to hide the lock combination as he opened it. Surprisingly enough, Luffy didn’t seem much interested as he sat cross-legged on the floor, head resting on his fist in an inquisitive position.

Only ten minutes had passed before Sanji was putting the final pieces of Luffy’s meal together, his favorite combination of meat, rice, and veggies - Sanji convinced him they weren’t veggies - that were formed into balls. Luffy had moved himself from the floor and was now rolling himself back and forth on the bench as he waited impatiently for his meal, shooting up with stars in his eyes as Sanji placed down the food in front of him.

Sanji didn’t bother to tell his captain that they were still hot from the stove. Nothing could stop Luffy from food in front of him and Sanji let out an amused huff as Luffy’s hands moved at lightening speed. The cook put together a couple more rice balls.

“Mfph Mm Umfh,” Luffy’s inaudible words caught Sanji's attention, the cook turning to see Luffy with cheeks stuffed and stretched out with food, a sight that always warmed his heart. Sanji gestured to the rice balls he just finished making as he turned the sink on, running his hands under cold water -- a refreshing feeling after standing by the stove in the smoldering room.

"There's some more right there," Sanji answered what he could only assume Luffy was mumbling with his mouth full of food, "I don't wanna hear from Chopper later about an upset stomach, eat those slower."

"MPFH," Luffy protested, and Sanji turned off the water, taking the towel off his shoulder as he dried his hands. Turning around, Sanji raised an eyebrow in question, looking between Luffy and a single rice ball that had managed to survive the massacre.

"Is there something wrong with it?" Sanji panicked a little, taking a couple of steps towards Luffy wondering what could possibly be wrong with the captain's food that would prevent him from eating it. Luffy held his hand up, Sanji stopping before getting a closer look at the food.

Luffy beckoned him closer and grabbed the rice ball in his free hand, the other gripping onto the bottom of Sanji's shirt. Before the cook could react, Luffy's hand was shooting towards his face, rice ball in hand which was soon stuffed into Sanji's mouth along with a certain captain's hand. Sanji choked a little as he tried to chew the food, Luffy's hand retracting with a proud smile on his face.

Sanji didn't even want to think about the last time Luffy washed his hands or what grime might have been covering them as he carefully chewed and swallowed the rice ball, Luffy doing the same with his accumulation of rice balls. They both swallowed.

"What the f-"

"I fixed you!" Luffy's voice cheered over Sanji's polite question, Luffy jumping up onto the bench and punching his fist into the air. "You should be feeling better now that you've had some yummy food, no more sickness."

"Sickness?" Sanji protested, meeting Luffy's eyes as the captain leaned down so they were eye-to-eye with each other, "Luffy I'm not sick." A puzzled expression arose on the younger's face, his head quirking to the side.

"Yeah you are," Luffy declared with a matter-of-fact tone, "You're all red and saying it's hot when it's not and you got injured in Alabasta which Chopper and Robin explained to me that injured can cause illness sometimes so I should always go to Chopper." Luffy's pinkie finger somehow found its way into his nose halfway through his explanation.

Placing his hand on the back of his sweaty neck, Sanji paused for a second, deciding to hear Luffy out which should have been the final reason to accept that he was ill. He had been feeling hot and achy since Alabasta but he had just chalked it up to the weather and post-battle injuries. Not that it wasn't, but being sick could also be contributing to it.

A sigh. "Alright Luffy, I'll go talk to Chopper, but you can't just put your hands in other people's mouths," Sanji reprimanded as Luffy beamed, his arm stretching behind Sanji and bringing back the final amount of rice balls. But, instead of shoving them into his mouth, Luffy grabbed Sanji's hands and dumped the remaining food into them.

"Chopper can fix you," Luffy stated as Sanji stared at him in surprise, even more shocked that the other had given up more than one of his pieces of food, "But your food makes me feel all better too so you should have some."

Another smile stretched across his captain's face before he plucked one of the rice balls out of Sanji's hands and shoved it in his own mouth, pulling himself out of the kitchen with a familiar laugh. A snort left Sanji's mouth and he looked down at the pieces of food in his hands. His heart swelled with pride and happiness that Luffy had not just shared his food but had done so with the prenotion that it would heal him.

The cook popped another one of the rice balls into his mouth, smiling a bit as he left the kitchen in search of Chopper. It never hurt to get checked out by their own personal doctor.

Okay guys my first ever LuSan Fic! And it is Omegaverse.

Name: My Happy Marriage With Monkey D Luffy.

AU. Older Omega Sanji x Younger Alpha Luffy. Royalty Setting. Arranged Marriage Fic. Fluff. Happy Ending.

Chapter 1: Why am I being rushed into this marriage?

“Shave that ugly beard and moustache before you step out tomorrow. It’s a big day for you!” My eldest quadruplet instructed me. His words were spoken to announce that he and the other two of the birth-set now stood at the door of the empty study.

I wanted to roll my eyes or offer something snarky, but I didn’t. I wanted to ask where they were heading in their colourful raid suits in the middle of the night and what big day he was talking about. If I waited enough, they would answer on their own. “Shave it all, I heard the D deviants don’t like body hair on their bedmate! Especially someone like you who carries two kinds of hair traits, you should be clean and proper, we don’t want to give them the impression that we don’t care for our little blonde Omega! What if it hurts our deal, right Third?”

Offering the hand of the Germa’s young in marriage to a weaker kingdom or a business empire family was standard practice for my family. And drag the engagement for a year or two while our spies collected every piece of information and dirt on the party involved, and then later our officers took control of their bureaucracy and resources— in the blink of a year, you became a puppet dancing to my father’s whims. If you fight back you get a civil war, if you agree, you get to live.

If it was a political union with Germa, that only meant that it benefited us.

Every perfect plan had flaws or an invariant that would ruin it, the current marriage arrangement that my brothers were yapping about had put my family and the entire empire into a frenzy. It seems to be bothering all of them. When you are the only predator in the jungle, the arrival of another stronger predator will keep you on edge.

“Cat got your tongue, Third?” The youngest of the birth-set stepped inside the study and peeped into what I was reading, seeing that it was another book about food, he wrinkled his nose as if the book in my hand was dog shit.

“You didn’t think we would sell you for a price, did you?”

Yes, he was correct, I never thought I would be seen as useful enough in our father’s eyes to be a sacrificial lamb for this empire’s ambition.

In Simple Joy and Peace (3/14/2021)

So I was thinking about LuSan and then the scene with Toriel where she’s pregnant with Asriel and something like this happened. I- I don’t know why but i mean, cute??

Although I didn't do it, I'm actually wondering if I should make a part 2 to this that contains the wedding and maybe them flashing back to when Sanji proposed to Luffy. I'm not sure tho. What do y'all think?

This story is on ao3 but you can also read it here by scrolling down past the summary!

In Simple Joy and Peace (Published: March/14/2021)

Pairing: Luffy x Sanji

Fandom: One Piece

Trigger Warning: None.

Length: 2262 Words, 1 Chapter. Completed.

Summary: He chuckled, tightening his arm around Luffy to bring him a little closer, “Oh, i know what you mean now,” he lowered his voice to a more charming tone as he leaned forward to kiss the black haired man but then he pulled away slightly, grinning cheekily, “your birthday?”

“Sanji!” Luffy glared at him, propping himself up on his elbows as he slapped Sanji’s chest. “You know full well that tomorrow isn’t my birthday!”

Sanji only laughed and brought his angry love back into his hold, “I know, I know, I’m sorry,” he chuckled and this time kissed him for real, making Luffy melt against him instantly. He pulled back to stare into those chocolate brown eyes he’s come to adore and decided to quit teasing the poor man.

“It’s our wedding day,” he said softly, watching as those darling eyes widened and a blush dusted his husband-to-be’s cheeks.

Luffy smiled as if he had been reminded of the most happiest memory he ever had and that’s exactly how he felt. Tomorrow, in the evening, the two of them were going to be wed. They would husbands, bound together in eternal love, until death do they part. And even after death, Sanji would never let Luffy part from him.

---------------

“Sanji...” A voice whispered in the silence of the night. There was barely any sound in the wood paneled room except the soft breathing of the man in question and sound of a gentle breeze making the waves roll outside the window.

The man in question let out a hum but otherwise didn’t respond.

“Sanji...!” The voice said again, a little harsher this time.

“Yes?” Sanji finally responded, not even cracking open his eyes to peer at the man beside him, curled up into his chest, half naked and wide awake for some reason. It hadn’t been long since Sanji started to fall asleep but now, you could say that his plans of getting a good sleep were ruined.

The voice only giggled, “guess what day tomorrow is~”

Sanji smiled slightly. Adorable, he thought to himself. “Christmas?” he asked, playing hard to get, knowing full well that it was currently summer.

“Nooo...,” The man whined, a wide smile evident in his voice, “try again~”

The blond took in a deep breath, more awake now than before. He rolled over onto his side, gently placing a hand on his love’s hip, cracking opening his eyes. He saw the brown eyes of Luffy twinkling at him, expecting an answer. “Easter?”

“Sanji-” Luffy clicked his tongue, pouting like a child, “it’s not a holiday!”

He chuckled, tightening his arm around Luffy to bring him a little closer, “Oh, i know what you mean now,” he lowered his voice to a more charming tone as he leaned forward to kiss the black haired man but then he pulled away slightly, grinning cheekily, “your birthday?”

“Sanji!” Luffy glared at him, propping himself up on his elbows as he slapped Sanji’s chest. “You know full well that tomorrow isn’t my birthday!”

“It’s our wedding day,” he said softly, watching as those darling eyes widened and a blush dusted his husband-to-be’s cheeks.

It was strange to think about now. Tomorrow was the day they were going to be married, Sanji always thought when this day came, he’d be wed to a beautiful woman - someone like Nami or maybe exactly Nami-chan. But things didn’t turn out that way, he was quite happy about that.

It took a while but after his time on the ship with his determined, brave, admirable but aloof captain, he realized he was deeply in love with him. It took him even longer to finally confess to the boy and when he did, the result was unique to say the least.

“You love me?” Luffy had said that day, staring up at Sanji with confusion. “I always knew that, Sanji, I love you, too!” He beamed at the cook.

Sanji blushed but he realized quickly who he was confessing to. He shook his head, “no, Luffy, you don’t understand. I love you as a man to... well... another man.”

Luffy only looked even more confused. He tilted his head ever so slightly, “so...,” he started, “like me and Ace?”

Quickly, Sanji shook his head, “no, not like a brother.”

“Like me and Zoro?” Luffy asked, trying his hardest to understand. It wasn’t like he was rejecting his feelings, Sanji could tell that Luffy just honestly did not understand. It was to be expected, this was Luffy he was talking to. Sanji maybe should’ve planned this out a little better.

“No, not like captain and first mate,” Sanji shook his head, letting out a little sigh. How should he explain this?

Luffy let out a hum, his brow furrowing in concentration as he tried to understand it.

“You know how I look at Nami?” Sanji asked. It was weird example to use and he felt uncomfortable using it, but it was the only way it would click for Luffy.

He nodded, “yes.”

“And how I look at Robin?”

Again, Luffy nodded.

“That’s how I look at you too.” Sanji said, “expect with you... it’s actual feelings. I actually do love you and want to be with you.”

Luffy tilted his head, folding his arms as he thought over what Sanji was saying. “So you... you think of me as a woman?” he raised an eyebrow, really trying to understand.

Sanji couldn’t help but chuckle. He was getting closer but not quite there yet. He sighed, leaning down a bit so his eyes were level with Luffy’s. “Listen. You know how a man sometimes falls in love with a woman, and as they fall deeper in love with each other, they get married?”

Luffy nodded and Sanji continued, “that’s how I feel about you. But not because I see you as a woman. I see you as you and I love you.”

The aloof captain thought about it for a second before his eyes widened in realization and his cheeks turned a deep red. Ah, he finally got it. Sanji grinned even though he intended to keep a serious expression on his face. It’s just the result of it finally clicking for Luffy was a lot cuter than he thought it would be.

“O-Oh...,” Luffy responded, clutching on his hat to hide his eyes, “I-I see.”

“You don’t have to return my feelings you know,” Sanji said quickly, not wanting to make the poor captain uncomfortable, “it’s okay if you don’t feel the same.”

“A-Ah, no, that’s not it,” Luffy stammered and Sanji felt a little hopeful from his words. “N-No, it’s just... I’m not experienced with those kinds of things, Sanji. Literally not experienced with anything in that department.”

He tilted his hat back so Sanji could see his flustered face, his eyes glued to the floor as he tried to explain his thoughts, “I don’t know why I never really- like you- with those things.”

Sanji knew in this moment he was supposed to be serious and understanding. He understood what Luffy was trying to say. He didn’t feel the concept of romantic or sexual attraction the way some people did, definitely not as much as Sanji did.

But Sanji couldn’t stop himself from just melting from the sight of a shy, flustered Luffy. It was look he had never seen on Luffy and he loved it. However, now wasn’t the time for that and he knew it. “That’s okay,” he said honestly with a smile, “you’re a little different when it comes to things like that and that’s okay. You’ll learn as you go through relationships with or without me and as time goes by, you might understand it a bit more. And if you don’t that’s fine too.”

Luffy’s blush deepened as he shifted on his feet, glancing away from Sanji’s kind words. “T-Thank you for saying that.”

“It’s nothing to thank me for, it’s an honest statement,” Sanji said.

Luffy cleared his throat, a brief silence coming over them before he went back to the topic at hand, “I know that someday I might get it but the thing is right now, I don’t. I don’t really understand my feelings for you. I can’t tell you if it’s love or something else.”

“Do you think you could clarify it?”

The captain let out a hum, glancing away from Sanji’s brown eyes for a second before responding, “It’s... different than how i feel about everyone else,” Luffy said. He stumbled over his words, explaining slowly but carefully about how he felt, “It’s not like with Ace. You would make a good brother but I just don’t... see you that way.”

Sanji chuckled. Always so nice. “I see, that’s fine. Do you see me like Zoro?”

Luffy took another second to think before slowly shaking his head, “no... I don’t think so. Zoro is amazing,” he chuckled, “but... he’s my friend and I think that’s it.”

Sanji nodded, “how about Nami?”

“Nami?” Luffy frowned.

“Like how I look at Nami. Is it anything like that with me?”

Luffy paused, tilting his head again in thought, “I don’t think so. I’m not sure what it is, to be honest.”

“I see,” Sanji said, his heart dropping a little bit. Maybe Luffy really did see him as a friend and just a friend.

“But...,” Luffy continued, “I like talking to you more than the others. I like being near you more than the others. I think you’re so cool and fun to be around that I like spending time with you more than... the others.” he blushed before clearing his throat, meeting Sanji’s eyes, “but I don’t know if that’s love or just... if I like you a lot as a friend.”

Sanji blinked, mulling over what Luffy said. It could be possible... maybe... “I see,” he answered, “well to be honest, from what you’ve told me, I think I am someone you’re interested in.”

“R-Really?” Luffy stammered, his eyes widening slightly.

“However,” Sanji continued, “like you, I don’t know if that’s love or just friendly admiration.”

“Oh...” Luffy said, looking a little sad from that outcome.

Sanji smiled, “but that doesn’t mean we can’t be in a relationship.” Luffy looked confused for a moment before Sanji continued, “most of the time, Luffy, when two people get into a relationship, there’s a mutual basis of love but it’s so unclear and weak that that’s why people go into a relationship in the first place. If we both knew for sure that we were madly in love with each other, why not skip everything and get married right here, right now?”

He leaned up, “love is the foundation of all relationships and when you want to spend your lives together, you need to make sure that foundation is strong. That’s why people date first. It’s so they can build upon that foundation or learn that the foundation can’t get stronger. Dating is how you learn if you truly love someone.”

“So with all of that being said,” he cleared his throat, “do you want to try a relationship with me? We can go as slow as you want and if you ever decide that it doesn't work, we can part ways.”

Luffy glanced at the ground for a minute, thinking about it. He was silent for a long time before looking back up at the blond, “I... I think I’d like to.”

Sanji grinned, “okay. Then as of today, we are officially dating.”

Luffy chuckled, blushing wildly, “c-cool!”

He was going to be awkward about this, Sanji could already tell but he didn’t care. It was adorable.

“That means no flirting or looking at other ladies. Or guys,” Sanji said seriously, earning a playful glare from Luffy.

“Oi, oi, why are you warning me? You’re the one who needs to be careful now. I’ll get upset if you look at anyone else,” he grinned and already the new relationship was starting to feel like it fitted right into place with how they usually were.

They took things slow. Very slow. It took almost six years before Luffy could finally tell Sanji that he loved him the same way that Sanji felt about him. And that was when Sanji asked Luffy to marry him and now, here they were, in bed, nearly an hour after midnight, excited for tomorrow.

Luffy curled further against his side, nuzzling his nose against Sanji’s, his eyes twinkling like a night sky during a meteor shower, “correct,” he said, softly, “tomorrow is the day that I become Luffy Vinsmoke!”

“Oi, I thought tomorrow was the day I become Sanji D. Monkey,” The blond chuckled. Truth be told, neither of them could really decide on a last name. They tried to figure out what would fit before finally choosing to not take eithers. Last names weren’t really that important anyway. What really mattered was the marriage itself.

“Nooo,” Luffy whined, “I want to be Luffy Vinsmoke. Luffy... D. Vinsmoke,” He giggled, “and then you can be Sanji D. Vinsmoke. Genius idea, yeah?”

Sanji laughed, placing a kiss on Luffy’s temple and another on his nose, “yes, very genius idea.”

Luffy laughed as Sanji placed more kisses on his face, wrapping his strong arms around his thin waist. He melted against his warmth, feeling a wave of peace and comfort roll over him.

“I’m so excited, I can’t sleep,” Luffy said honestly, “I wish it already was tomorrow.”

“Oh?” Sanji hummed, his voice lowering into a more sultry down. Uh oh. You give Sanji an inch, he’ll take a mile and that’s exactly what he was going to do. “Need help getting tired~?” he asked with a mischievous grin, now trailing his kisses down to the rubber man’s neck.

His husband-to-be only giggled, carding his fingers through the blond’s hair, “Maaaybe~” he said back with an equally mischievous tone of voice.

He smiled as he pressed his lips firmly against Sanji’s, nearly purring at the taste of him. He couldn’t wait to be married to this man and spend the rest of their lives just like this.

In simple joy and peace.

In Simple Joy and Peace (Updated: May/3/2021)

Pairing: Luffy x Sanji

Fandom: One Piece

Trigger Warning: None.

Length: 8552 Words, 2 Chapters. Completed.

Summary: Sanji couldn’t see anything except darkness. All he could hear was the small huff of air that he knew was Luffy trying not to giggle.

“Luuuffy~” Sanji purred out, “did you take off your blindfold?”

“No,” Luffy chuckled.

“Really?” Sanji prodded again, reaching out to search for Luffy’s face. He could tell from the volume of the rubberman’s voice, he was right in front of him. He trailed his fingers slowly up the man’s cheeks, causing him to giggle again from the ticklish feeling before the fingers finally landing on the black silk covering his soon-to-be husband’s eyes.

“Happy now?” Luffy said, a teasing lilt in his voice. He felt the man catch his hands before he could pull away, keeping them in place on his cheeks, leaning into one of them. Sanji couldn’t help but smile from the gesture, his heart swelling with love for this man.

“I’m going to be getting married to you in a few minutes,” Sanji said, “how can I not be happy?”

----------------------

Sanji couldn’t see anything except darkness. All he could hear was the small huff of air that he knew was Luffy trying not to giggle.

“Luuuffy~” Sanji purred out, “did you take off your blindfold?”

“No,” Luffy chuckled.

“I’m going to be getting married to you in a few minutes,” Sanji said, “how can I not be happy?”

He heard Luffy giggle again, placing a kiss on the palm of his hand. He could feel him smiling as he pressed against his hand and never in his life has Sanji been so desperate to see his lover. But he couldn’t. Not yet.

They both decided that they wanted to make this wedding special. They wanted to make sure it was a memory that they would cherish and think back on for the rest of their lives. In order to do that, they would wear blindfolds and wouldn’t take them off until it was time for them to kiss.

At first, they thought the idea was weird when Robin suggested it but the more they thought about it, the more they liked it and now here they were, blindfolded and waiting for everyone to make sure their wedding was set and ready to go.

Sanji could still remember the day he proposed to Luffy. Sure, it had only been a few months ago, but it felt so long to Sanji. If he could’ve, he would’ve had that wedding with Luffy the second he said yes. But they had to wait until now so they could get everything they needed.

If Sanji told the more traditional folk about how he proposed to Luffy, they’d probably demand that he repeat his proposal because what he did wasn’t how you’re supposed to do it. He didn’t propose the traditional way most husbands try to do with their partners, but to be honest, neither of them cared. It was how they did it and that was fine by them.

It happened when they had stopped at an island to collect food. The two lovers were finally able to take a second to relax and enjoy a bit of land scenery before going back out to sea. Sanji realized that the second he landed on the shore, so he had the great idea to suggest a date to Luffy, but much to his surprise, the rubberman suggested it first.

“Sanji,” he had said with a wide grin, “let’s go explore the island together.”

Luffy dragged him around the whole island, pointing and gawking at everything he thought was cool. It was something that Sanji used to find exhausting but now he just found it to be cute. Luffy’s never ending curiosity and amazement of the world would never cease to be adorable.

Eventually, the two of them found a clearing on the cliff that showed a nice view of the setting sun, the ocean and the ship down at the shore. Luffy gasped and ran, nearly toppling over the edge as his eyes drank in the view.

“Wow!!” He awed, “Sanji, look! Isn’t it pretty?”

Sanji drew closer to him, admiring mostly the way the sun gave Luffy a glow that made him look almost ethereal. “Yeah.”

“Sanji, you’re not even looking,” Luffy pouted at him, his chocolate brown eyes meeting his own.

Sanji only chuckled and reached out an arm, draping it over Luffy’s waist, “well maybe that’s because I found an even better view right in front of me.”

As he expected, a pretty blush dusted Luffy’s cheeks and he rolled his eyes at him but smiled as he looked back at the view in front of them. The wind was blowing gently, making the waves roll and glisten like diamonds as they reflected the sun’s rays.

Luffy sat down onto the ground, dangling his legs over the cliff, his eyes focused completely on the ocean. Sanji followed his example, sitting down beside him, his shoulder bumping with his. For a few minutes, neither of them spoke. They just sat there enjoying the small amount of peace the moment was able to give them.

But then Luffy spoke, rolling the ball that set their future plans into motion. “Hey, Sanji?” Luffy said in a soft voice, his eyes drifting to the cook’s face.

“Yeah?” Sanji asked, immediately turning his attention to him.

“I love you,” The captain said, his smile widening slightly as his eyes twinkled. For a second, Sanji smiled and was about to say that he loved him too. But then he realized exactly what he said.

Never since day one has Luffy said that he loved Sanji. Of course, Sanji knew that Luffy liked him enough to want to be in a relationship with him but he also knew that Luffy wasn’t 100% sure on whether or not his feelings were love or just him admiring the cook. It was because of Luffy’s uncertainty that he told Sanji at the very beginning that he would never say the words “I love you” until he was completely sure on how he felt.

That never stopped Sanji saying it back though and Luffy was fine with that. He was fine with Sanji saying words of endearment or showing it through actions because Luffy knew he meant them.

But now… Luffy was able to say it back…

So that must mean…

“You love me?” Sanji asked, his voice smaller than before. His heart was beating like crazy, his mind reeling. He felt like he was asking the shorter man out all over again.

“Yeah…,” Luffy said carefully, “I’ve been thinking about it for a while now but I think… no, i’m sure that I love you.”

Sanji breathed out a sigh of relief he didn’t know he was holding. He had never felt so happy before in his life. He huffed out a chuckle before that chuckle quickly turned into a laugh.

Luffy’s smile faded into a frown, his eyebrow quirking up, “oi, you’re not supposed to laugh, you’re supposed to be happy.”

Sanji shook his head at his boyfriend, taking a deep breath to calm himself down, “no you idiot,” he chuckled, “I’m laughing because I’m happy.”

“Oh?” Luffy quirked, looking a little confused at first before he smiled back, “oh.”

Another chuckle slipped from Sanji’s lips as he leaned forward, taking a hold of Luffy’s face and gently caressing his cheeks as he kissed him. He was feeling overjoyed, as if he was floating on cloud nine. He felt so happy and relieved that Luffy loved him back.

But he knew this was something they needed to talk about. He pulled away, allowing himself to bask in the happy glow one more time before asking, “how are you sure?”

Luffy smiled slightly, “well, I was just thinking one day about our future.”

“Yeah?” Sanji grinned, draping arm back over Luffy’s waist, “what did you think about?”

The Straw Hat captain gazed back at the sun before speaking, “well, I was thinking about what I would do if anything happened to you.”

Luffy reached up to scratch his nose, a habit Sanji noticed he did whenever he was trying to stall. His smile faltered and his arm around him tightened. Sanji didn’t like the thought of him worrying about him over such things. He knew he could take care of himself and he knew that Luffy knew that too.

He waited patiently for Luffy to elaborate. “I know you’re strong. You’re amazing!” Luffy grinned, his eyes going back to his, “you’re a good fighter and an equally good person. I know you can take on anything - anyone - and you’d win!”

Sanji smiled at his compliments. It made him feel good to be recognized by Luffy as a strong person since after all, Luffy was the strongest person he knew. It felt good to be admired by him in that regard. But he knew that there was something else worrying Luffy or else he would not have brought this up.

“You’re a good fighter,” Luffy repeated, “and I know you can handle yourself just fine but sometimes… sometimes I worry about what if something happens to you and you can’t? What if there is a stronger opponent, what if they hurt you first and you can’t do anything, w-what if…?” he trailed off, his smile gone now as he started thinking about all of his fears.

“Hey,” Sanji said gently, bringing a hand to Luffy’s cheek, rubbing the soft skin underneath his thumb, “nothing is ever going to happen to me-”

“But what if something does?” Luffy insisted, his voice shaky and his eyes glistening. He was really bothered by this new prospect in his life. Of course he always worried about his friends, but he knew he could protect them or they could protect themselves. But Sanji was different and that scared him. “What if something does happen and what if I can’t save you?” Luffy choked, his eyes wide and scared, “wh-what do I do then?”

“Shh…,” Sanji gently wrapped his arms around the shorter male and pulled him closer to him to where he was basically sitting on his lap. “You said it yourself, didn’t you? I can handle anything, it will be okay.”

Gentle tears began to stream down Luffy’s face as he snuggled further into the crook of Sanji’s neck. “But i’m scared,” he said, “I don’t want to ever lose you. I love you, Sanji. I really do love you.”

Sanji immediately pulled away from him and took a gentle hold of his face to press a kiss against his lips. Their lips slotted together perfectly, the feeling of his soft lips against Luffy’s rough ones felt amazing. He tangled a hand into his hair and drew him closer. Luffy let out a muffled sound, his eyes a little hazy when Sanji finally pulled away. He pressed their foreheads together, letting his nose nuzzle his.

“I love you so much more than anything in this world,” Sanji whispered against his lips, “so you don’t have to worry. I’m not going anywhere because that means I’ll lose you,” he chuckled softly even though his heart stung at the thought of it, “I think that’s the one thing I can’t handle. I can take anything else but that.”

Luffy let out a little laugh too, his nose crinkling up as he did so. His tears were still fresh but he seemed more relaxed. “Well then you better not do anything stupid or else we’re both going to have a problem.”

Sanji laughed with him and curled his arms around his waist, holding him close to him as he enjoyed his warmth. It was shortly after that day that Sanji asked him to marry him. It was early in the morning, the two of them up and getting dressed for the day.

Luffy was buttoning up his vest when Sanji slid behind him, wrapping his arms around him, “so you love me, right?”

“With all my heart,” Luffy said matter of factly, “well, maybe not as much as I love meat, it’s a really close tie.”

Sanji laughed and kissed his neck, just below his ear. “Do you love me enough to the point where you want to be by my side forever?”

“Yes??” Luffy said, a little confused, “I thought we’ve already been through this.”

“Oh, we have, I just wanted to make sure,” Sanji said, smiling as he turned the man around so he could face him.

“Why?” He asked, smiling up at him. This was it. Sanji wasn’t really nervous but he was a little concerned. What if this would scare him? What if this would make him uncomfortable? He internally shook his nerves away and decided that he would never know if he never asked. So he took a deep breath and lowered himself down to one knee.

He watched as Luffy at first looked confused but then his eyes widened in realization, slowly raising a hand to his mouth as a small gasp of surprise left him. “You can say no,” Sanji said with a smile, “If you’re not ready, it’s okay to say no. You already know that I love you so much and I don’t mean to repeat myself but you really do mean the world to me.”

Luffy tried to bite his lip to keep his tears from flowing but it didn’t work. The tears slowly ran down his cheeks against his will as he listened to what Sanji had to say.

“I love you and I know that if you’ll let me - if you want to - I wouldn’t want anything more but to spend the rest of my life with you,” Sanji said, pulling the box out of his pocket and opening it to reveal the beautiful yet simple silver ring. “So, if you’re ready and only if you’re ready… will you marry me, Luffy D. Monkey?”

For a second, Luffy could only stare down at him before he grinned, laughing as he put a hand over his mouth to hide his sobs mixed with chuckles. He smiled, regaining enough composure to whisper, “yes. Yes!”

Sanji’s own eyes widened in amazement as he suddenly laughed, and reached up, wrapping his new fiancé in his arms. He couldn’t possibly explain the emotions he was feeling right now but he knew that the main thing he was feeling was joy. So much joy.

Luffy’s own arms wrapped around him as he laughed, holding him as close to him as he could. He pulled away only to take Sanji’s face in his hands and pull him forwards so he could kiss him. Sanji nearly giggled against his lips as his arms went around his neck. They pulled away shortly after, laughing to themselves as Sanji finally put the ring on Luffy’s hand.

After that, they announced the news and planned for the wedding and now here they were. About to finally be one person together, to share a life together. They could hardly wait.

Finally, just as they were starting to get impatient, the door creaked open and they could hear two sets of heels clacking against the wooden floor as the owners walked in. They both turned their heads towards the sound but remained unknown to who it was.

“We’re ready now,” A voice said, which belonged to Nami. Although they couldn’t see it, she was smiling, “Just as you requested, Robin and I are ready to guide you to the altar.”

Sanji smiled, wishing Nami could see the smile in his eyes too. “Thank you. I believe we’re ready as well.”

Luffy chuckled, “yes! I don’t know if i could wait any longer even if you asked me too.”

Because everyone on board the ship was family to them, they were having a very untraditional wedding in terms of roles. Luffy and Sanji didn’t have a best man or a maid of honor, but they had asked Nami and Robin to be the ones to guide them to the altar. They asked Chopper to do the flower petals for them and for Usopp to design the altar and setting arrangements. Franky helped set everything up while Brook did the music. And of course, because Zoro was such a valuable friend to the both of them and was Luffy’s first mate, they asked him to officiate the wedding.

It was everything they could ever dream of.

Sanji felt Luffy’s hands leave him and a daintier, softer pair took a hold of his arm. He smiled, hoping the owner could see his smile, “Thank you, Robin.”

“Of course, Sanji,” She said happily, “It’s an honor to do this for you two.”

Carefully, Sanji and Luffy both were led outside the door of their room. They stood there for a second before the music began to play. Sanji felt a chill run up his neck as it finally started to settle in. He was about to be married. He was about to finally be married to the love of his life. He felt so nervous now but also so excited.

He couldn’t wait.

They were led to the altar and turned to face each other. They searched for each other’s hands before finding them and holding tightly onto them. Sanji could hear Luffy let out a little giggle as Sanji’s thumb rubbed the top of hand, massaging the muscles there. It was a habit he adopted since they started dating.

“Are you ready?” A gruff voice asked. Sanji immediately recognized it as Zoro’s. He squeezed Luffy’s hands, getting a squeeze in return and he smiled.

“Yes,” Sanji said.

With that, Zoro cleared his throat and began the ceremony. He talked about how Sanji and Luffy first met and first fell in love and discussed their relationship. He did what every officiator did, discussing their relationship and then talked about himself and his relationship to them. “When I first was told by Luffy that he was dating Sanji,” he began, ”I really wanted to hit him on the head and ask him ‘why?’”

Everyone laughed at that. Even Sanji and Luffy.

“It confused me at first because I didn’t know that Luffy was even interested in Sanji. I didn’t even realize Sanji was interested in Luffy! But as I watched their relationship develop,” Zoro continued, his voice softening, suggesting a hint of a smile, “I realized they actually were perfect for each other. I could tell then and I still can say for sure now that Sanji has devoted his heart to Luffy and only to Luffy since day one.”

Sanji felt his hands carefully be lifted up and a pair of lips gently placed a loving kiss on the knuckle of his ring finger.

“Oi, no touching or kissing until I pronounce you married!” Zoro scolded.

“Sorry,” Luffy said, in a mischievous tone that suggested he was not sorry at all. “Couldn’t help it.”

Zoro sighed and continued, “and as for Luffy who can’t sit still.” Luffy giggled at that as Zoro went on, “I could tell that at first, he didn’t understand his feelings. But as he understood them, I could see in his eyes that every time he looked at Sanji, he was in love with him and he knew that.”

Sanji felt his heart flutter from that remark. God, it would never make him feel so… so loved to hear that Luffy really did cherish him as much as he did him.

“Luffy told me when he chose Sanji to join the crew,” Zoro began again, his voice gentle and soft, “when he chose him to be his cook, he didn’t choose him because his food was good or because he had skills. Luffy hadn’t even tried his cooking when he picked him, and he wouldn’t have cared if Sanji was bad. He chose Sanji to join the crew because he could tell that he was kind. And that was all Luffy wanted from him.”

Sanji subconsciously squeezed Luffy’s hands. So even in the beginning, he had Luffy’s trust. Luffy could see what kind of person he was, how kind he was even towards people who didn’t deserve it. He felt Luffy squeeze his hands back, rubbing the joints of his thumbs, caressing his hands with so much love that Sanji was going to start crying before he got to see his new husband.

“I think we all know that the two of you really do cherish each other so much,” Zoro said, “and I know i’m speaking for everyone when I saw that we all hope you have a wonderful, long and loving life together until death do you part.”

He cleared his throat, “Now, before we get to my least favorite part which I know Sanji is dying for.” The crowd laughed, as well as Sanji. He wasn’t wrong, Sanji really couldn't wait to see his husband so he could kiss him. “First, you must do your vows.”

As they had discussed before, Zoro squeezed Sanji’s shoulder, signaling that he would go first. They decided that Sanji would go first since he was the one who asked Luffy out. He fell for him first and wanted to explain why that happened. So he cleared his throat so he could begin.

“At first, i didn’t have these feelings for you. I honestly didn’t think I ever would,” Sanji said, telling the truth. He always thought he’d settle down with a girl someday because he had always felt attraction only to girls. “I always thought i’d marry a woman someday. But one day, I took one look at you and realized that you were… you were just…” he stumbled, trying to find the words, “you started to intrigue me in a way you never had before.”

“Sanji, I'm going to slap you if you mean in the way that us ladies intrigued you,” Nami said, most likely with a glare and her hands on her hips.

He laughed and shook his head, “no, no, not like that.” He chuckled before his voice turned soft again, “I started to really notice that Luffy is a good person. He’s always trying to help people, help us, he’s always fighting for his dream as well as the dreams of others. I admired you when I realized that,” he said, squeezing Luffy’s hands, “I admired you and pretty quickly, I realized that admiration turned to love and I knew that when I told you, you probably wouldn’t be interested but I went to you and asked you anyway. I can’t tell you how happy it made me when you said yes.”

Luffy chuckled, squeezing his hands back and lifting them up to sneak one more kiss on the backs of them.

“At first, you needed time and I happily gave you time. I’d given you eternity if you had asked. I understood that you needed patience in order for you to understand your emotions, and I happily gave you all of that. But even so, it made me so overjoyed when you were able to tell me that you loved me too, I had been waiting for so long and hearing you say three simple words were enough to make me just... so happy,” Sanji laughed, “of course though, i wouldn’t of been just satisfied with that.”

“I can’t wait for what’s going to happen in our future,” he continued, “it’s both so exciting and scary at the same time but I know that no matter what happens, we can get through it because we’ll be together, by each other’s side. And I know that while I don't know what’s going to happen, I know that one thing that's going to happen no matter what... and that's falling in love with you more and more with each passing day and i’ll never stop, not even when we die.” He smiled softly at that, squeezing his soon-to-be husband’s hands. “I love you so much. Thank you for marrying me.”

Although he couldn’t see it, he could hear Luffy chuckle, letting out a little sob suggesting that he was tearing up. He was beaming though, trying to calm his quivering lip and keep his tears at bay. Zoro touched his shoulder this time, partly out of reassurance and partly to signal that it was his turn.

Luffy took a minute to swallow down his tears and clear his throat. “When I was a child, love and romance isn't really something I got to see. It wasn’t around me when I was child so i guess I didn’t grow up understanding that that was a concept that adults usually felt. Of course I know what love feels like but romantic love wasn’t really something that I felt. Or if I ever did feel it, I never really focused on it.”

“That’s why when you confessed your feelings for me it took me so long to be able to share that feeling. It took a long time of thinking and muddling over my feelings for me to finally realize what I felt. Eventually, what helped me see it was when I started to think of what would happen… what would I do… if something happened to you,” Luffy squeezed his hands, biting his lip, “the more I pictured it, the more it hurt and scared me. I felt sad and afraid at the thought of ever losing you, of not being able to protect you.”

“I would think about anything happening that resulted you being taken away from me. Either by death or by someone taking you, maybe even someone else causing you to fall for them,” Sanji squeezed his hands in response to that, causing Luffy to chuckle a little before resuming his vows, “it hurt so much. And I realized that, because it hurt so much, it meant that I really did care about you. And It didn’t take long for me to realize that meant that I loved you.”

He sniffled, his tears finally leaving his eyes as much as he tried to hold them back, “I can say with absolute certainty now that I love you so much, Sanji. I finally understand how you feel about me and I never thought that anyone could feel that way about me or that I could feel this way about someone. But I'm so glad that I finally know it now and I’m never going to let this feeling go. I’m never going to let you go.”

Sanji grinned, raising his hands to his lips and kissed each of his knuckles. He understood exactly how Luffy felt. He was never going to let him or this happy feeling go either. He would never be able to and he hoped he never would have to.

Zoro cleared his throat. Finally, It was time for the moment they had been waiting for… “well, with that being said. It’s time for the real part of the event.” He took a hold of Sanji’s shoulder, “Sanji Vinsmoke, do you swear to love and stand by Luffy D. Monkey, in sickness and in health, for better or worse, until death do you part?”

“I do,” Sanji said softly. He did. He did promise, he’d happily promise a hundred times.

Zoro took a hold of Luffy’s shoulder next, “Luffy D Monkey. Do you swear to love and stand by-”

“I do!” Luffy chuckled, too excited to wait for Zoro.

“Oi, you idiot, you’re supposed to let me finish!” He grumbled but Luffy wasn’t going to have any of it.

“I do…,” he said gently, “I do, a thousand times, I do!”

It was silent for a second as Zoro smiled. Luffy wasn’t being impatient or wanting to get this over with. He was just honestly excited and ready to marry the love of his life. He didn’t need to see his eyes to know that.

“Well…,” Zoro said, “the two of you now must close your eyes.”

Finally. Finally! Sanji felt the black cloth be untied from behind him as he closed his eyes, unsure of when to open them. He waited for the signal until he felt a pair of rough hands cradle his face and he opened his eyes to the most gorgeous sight he would ever lay his eyes on.

“Sanji…,” Luffy whispered, beaming brightly as his brown eyes twinkled at him. Sanji was absolutely blown away. Luffy was gorgeous. He was wearing a tux, the coat flaring out slightly to act a bit like a dress. He wore a veil on his head and Sanji wore one too. They chose to add that to their ensemble. But that was the only thing they agreed on. Sanji’s suit was different. It was more simple, more like a typical groom’s suit but it matched Luffy’s perfectly.

His eyes took in every little detail about how beautiful he looked. It was funny, neither of them had talked about clothes at all yet they had matched so well. It nearly brought him to tears.

“You look so beautiful…,” Sanji gasped softly, his hands taking a hold of Luffy’s, “god, just look at you.”

Luffy chuckled, his eyes misty and threatening to spill over. “Me? How about you? You look ten times as good as I do.”

“No,” Sanji shook his head, chuckling as he stepped closer to his new husband, “it’s impossible for me to look as good as you.”

“I disagree,” Luffy said softly, his eyes now glued to Sanji’s lips.

“Oh, stop arguing,” Sanji chuckled and finally did what he knew he was supposed to do next. He kissed his husband, and he kissed him hard, pouring all of his love for him into it. Applause rang out all around them, cheers and whistles, everyone laughing and beaming with joy at their union.

When Sanji pulled away, he lifted Luffy up into his arms, twirling him around. Now, they were officially husbands. Luffy laughed, wrapping his arms tightly around the older’s neck, kissing him one more time before he was set back down and they continued the rest of the festivities.

The rest of the night was just as much fun. They had cake, of course by serving it to each other. Luffy, being the mischievous man he was, made sure to smear as much cake as he could at least once on his husband’s lips. Sanji didn’t mind it though because he got his revenge by kissing Luffy as hard as he could, transferring most of the frosting and cream on his face to Luffy’s.

Some of their friends gave speeches and some personally delivered their best wishes. Of course all of them were very happy for them and the couple knew that. Only a few actually wanted to deliver a speech while others did not.

Luffy and Sanji had their first ever dance shortly after that. It was slow and sweet and perfect. Neither of them were the best dancers and that was okay. They didn’t have to be. Luffy kept stepping on Sanji’s toes, which he didn’t mind at all.

“You can just stand on my toes and i’ll guide you,” Sanji said softly, making sure it was just Luffy who heard him.

“You don’t have to do that,” Luffy chuckled, “I’ve only stepped on your toes at least twice.”

“More like eight times,” Sanji laughed, pressing a kiss to Luffy’s forehead. “But that’s okay, I really don’t mind.”

“Oh? So next time we dance, I can step on your toes as much as I want?” The rubberman grinned as he planted his feet gently on top of Sanji’s.

Sanji laughed, taking a bigger leap than usual as he led Luffy into the dance so he could throw him off a little bit, “I didn’t exactly say that.”

“But it was open for interpretation, right?”

Sanji dipped his husband rather quickly, causing him to gasp and lose the smirk on his face, “Hmmm, i don’t know. But I do know that the more the two of us dance, the better you get.” He smiled, “I’ll make sure you get lots of practice, don’t worry.”

Luffy giggled against his lips, “you better. I’m starting to like this new adjustment to life.”

“As am I,” Sanji smiled, already knowing that he’d never be able to let this feeling go.

When the dance was over, they stayed to have fun with the others. The party lasted until the sun started to rise over the horizon. All the guests soon passed out after drinking too much liquor and having too much fun. Everyone except the newlyweds of course.

Luffy dragged his new husband to their bedroom, giggling the whole way as he covered his face in kisses, laughing as Sanji chuckled back at him and nuzzled his nose in his neck, pressing as many kisses to his neck and jawline as he could.

The pair was so hopelessly in love with each other, how could they not spend the whole night proving that to each other in their bed.

If you asked Sanji, he’d tell you in a teasing manner that that night was his favorite memory of his relationship with Luffy. But in all honesty, every memory he had of Luffy both good and bad were his favorite. Of course, the day they got married would always be so special to him but the memory that really was his favorite, the one that was at the top of the list, was the day they adopted their daughter.

He smiled at the memory of the day they found her. She had tried to pick his pocket when the two of them were on a date. Sanji had opened his mouth to tell her to scram but he noticed how thin and weak she was. She was only five years old yet she looked as if she could’ve been two. She was short, dressed in rags with so little meat on her bones, her ribs and elbows showed.

Much to his surprise, Luffy had smiled softly at the little girl before leaning down to her height, “hi.”

She only looked at his with wide, terrified eyes. But Luffy only continued to smile gently at her, “are you hungry? My husband is a really good cook, would you like to try his food?”

She gave him a feeble nod and ever since then, she’s been their little girl, their pride and joy.

The girl giggled, climbing into the bed, specifically in Luffy’s spot, making sure to spread out so he couldn’t lay down.

“Oi, how rude,” Luffy scolded with a playful grin on his face, “that’s where I sleep, you sleep in between us.”

“No!” She laughed, “right here!”

Luffy sighed, “well then… I guess i’ll have to make you.”

“No!” she gasped and shook her head but her eyes were twinkling with excitement.

Sanji laughed and propped himself on his elbow, peering at the two of them, “shall I hold her down for you, Captain?”

“Yes, loyal husband of mine. Hold down our captive so she can take her punishment,” Luffy grinned mischievously, wiggling his fingers at her. Their daughter squealed, trying to roll away but Sanji wrapped his arms tightly around her, only restricting her movement slightly as Luffy started to tickle her.

She laughed and snorted, wiggling away from his touch as Luffy attacked her sides. “No more! No more!”

“Are you going to move for me then?” Luffy asked.

“Yes!” She giggled and the tickling stopped. She rolled further into her other father’s chest, making space for Luffy. “Daddy’s mean, papa.”

“I know,” Sanji smiled, “he’s a jerk but we love him anyway.”

“I feel like i’m being attacked right now,” Luffy said, sitting on the bed and moving the covers over them. “I don’t appreciate it at all.”

“You know we love you,” Sanji said, smiling as he leaned over, pecking his husband’s lips.

Their daughter made a face, “gross!”

“Gross, how is that gross?” Sanji smirked, “you get kisses all the time.”

Their daughter remained stubborn, shaking her head and insisting that it was gross. Luffy laughed and leaned over to kiss his daughter’s forehead, “now, now, there’s no need to be so feisty about it.”

Sanji laughed, watching as his daughter groaned before rolling away from Luffy and curling further into Sanji’s chest. “I think someone’s a little shy now,” he laughed, hearing her let out a whine in retaliation.

“And sleepy too,” Luffy added, smiling sweetly at his husband. “I think we should both go to sleep now.”

Sanji nodded, pulling his husband into his embrace before laying one last kiss on his lips. “Good night, my king.”

Luffy giggled and whispered back to him, “good night, my love.” Then he glanced down at their daughter, gently curling arms around her. She was already fast asleep but he still whispered to her, “good night, my sunshine. I love you both so much.”

Sanji’s heart warmed at that and he tightened his hold on Luffy, “and we love you too, so much.” He kissed his nose, “I know i’ve said it a million times but thank you for marrying me and giving me this wonderful life.”

Luffy smiled, cupping his husband’s cheek and gently stroked the bone before answering, “thank you for falling in love with me. I’m glad I didn’t let fear stop me from being with you because this life, what we have right now… I wouldn’t trade it for anything. Not even to be king of pirates.”

Sanji laughed, “but you so badly want to be the king of pirates.”

“Hmm, I do,” Luffy grinned, “but I love our happy family too much. If I had to give you both up, I wouldn’t take it. I’m already happy with how my life is now, living with you and our daughter in simple joy and peace… what more could I want?”

With that, Luffy’s eyes fluttered closed as he let out a content sigh, “I love you, Sanji.”

Sanji smiled warmly at him, closing his eyes too, “I love you more, Luffy.”

And with that the three of them fell asleep, once again in simple joy and peace.
