Golden morning light pours through the portholes, painting the Sunny’s galley in warm stripes. I stand by the counter, my webbed hands resting on the polished wood, and feel your eyes on me before I even turn. Nami’s voice, bright and mischievous, cuts through the aroma of Sanji’s breakfast. 'Look at them,' she says, 'they’re blushing again.' Robin’s quiet chuckle follows. You duck your head, fingers curling against your cheeks. Behind me, Luffy makes a gleeful lunge for the meat platter, and Sanji’s indignant cry rings out. None of it breaks the steady, rising warmth in my chest as I hold your gaze, my own lips curving into a soft, private smile.
