finally, he makes it to her, an arm winding around the brunetteβs middle and legs kicking to get them quickly to the surface.
she was weak too, limp, damn idiot. . and as soon as he could get air, and she could hear himβ
βWHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?? DONβT BE STUPID.β
he thought he was doing fine. . .
whatever. doesnβt matter. not like trying to impress any woman is a goal of his. he doesnβt care.
hey, at least they both have something that happened to the other that they canβt look back on very fondly. comforting.
βrespectable? think that depends on who you ask.β
another shrug at the thought process followed, brows knitting together for a moment. βsure, but. . he doesnβt. so, we just kind of deal. itβs fine. long as i eat.β
. . clearly not. sheβs right, is that what she wants to hear?
itβsβ refreshing to know someone still cares about what happened then. but, heβs sorry she witnessed it, has been affected by it. he didnβt know a lot of things about that fight, but he didnβt even think about something like that.
the way that he flopped her onto the boat was comical enough to make the damned animal come out, for sure. eyes widened a little when he was ordered to do something whilst also juggling being annoyed as hell.
but, captain said jump. so, off he went, unable to do anything but stab the damn thing +
+ before it fell overboard. he lunged, grabbing one of the swords heβd abandoned on deck to go get her and unsheathing it before lunging and stabbing through it.
huff. huff. huff.
no, not at all. last thing heβd do is try to make a woman feel important. π’
does she. . really have a grudge against him for that? hell, nami didnβt seem to have that issue with him, so. . why would he expect sanji to? heβs kind of the biggest pain in the ass she knows.
. . WHY IS SHEβ
in he goes, practically yelling on the way into the water.
