To the end of the sea [One Piece]

??

Sanji feels something is wrong lately.

His colleagues are always whispering behind his back and scatter when they see him coming; his girlfriend is always mysterious and comes home later than him several times; even the guests occasionally watch. He showed a subtle expression.

He couldn't ask, so he had to do his own thing in confusion.

Until March 3nd.

After finishing the dinner, he packed up the kitchen and walked into the dining room, only to find that the hall was dark.

"Kaliman? Falbucci?" he shouted in confusion, "Is there a power outage? Why are the lights turned off?"

Silence answered him.

After retreating from the battle for a long time, he tensed up his nerves again for the first time in a long time, and began to calculate in his mind the possibility of his enemies coming.

But when he carefully explored the surrounding environment, he was surprised to find that there were many people's scents not far away.

"Okay, if we continue, we won't be able to hide it from Mr. Kurozu." A familiar voice sounded with a smile that made him relax instantly. A firelight lit up in the darkness, and Ena's side face faintly emerged. She lowered her head He lit a few candles and pushed a cart towards him.

As the candlelight moved forward, he saw many lit faces around him, which were his familiar colleagues and guests.

Then, his girlfriend walked up to him pushing the exquisite cake.

Sanji lost the ability to speak and looked at her blankly: "How..."

"Happy birthday, Sanji." Eina showed a bright smile, "I'm sorry that I have been hiding it from you recently... I proposed to celebrate your birthday with everyone."

"Miss Naraku was really shocked when she came to see us." Kaliman chuckled, "You are the same, Sanji. We have worked together for so long and you have never told us your birthday!"

"That's right." Taji leaned on the back of the chair and pouted, "Should I say it's Eina... If it weren't for her, we wouldn't even know your birthday is today."

"Hurry up and make a wish Sanji!!"

His heart beat faster under their gaze, and after looking around for a while, he landed on Ena's eyes. She nodded encouragingly, and Sanji closed his eyes in excitement.

There was silence for a few seconds, then he opened his eyes, took a breath, and blew out all the candles.

The next second the lights were lit, and warm applause and blessings sounded at the same time. People came around and handed over gifts noisily, and everyone had a smile on their face.

"Happy birthday, kid!" The chefs patted his shoulders vigorously, "You have worked so hard!!"

"Thank you, Sanji." Taji handed him a box with a blush on his cheeks. "I've always wanted to say thank you to you... You brought me a lot of warmth, which is really important to me. important."

"Although the illusion was broken." Lina sighed, "But when Miss Eina came to invite us, I suddenly gave up."

Several other female guests showed expressions of approval.

After all, Sanji has never avoided Ena's existence in front of them, and his interactions with them are all based on gentlemanly etiquette.

Maybe some people had illusions, but the moment Ena stood in front of them, everyone completely understood why the romantic and handsome man would die for her.

Such a beautiful and gentle woman deserves any man to spend his whole life caring for her.

What's more, she invited them politely and generously, carefully prepared surprises for Sanji, and soon became friends with everyone.

"You must always be happy." Lina sincerely wished.

"I will definitely do it." Sanji gently held Eina's waist, pulled her into his arms, hugged her, leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Thank you."

Eina raised the corners of her lips and kissed his cheek, and also whispered: "I will give you my gift when I get home."

She withdrew from his arms and said loudly and vigorously: "Then-"

“The party has started!!!”

Everyone cheered.

----------

It was already late at night when the party ended, and Ena helped Sanji, who was a little drunk, back home.

She turned on the light and placed him on the sofa. She carefully brought a soft cushion and placed it behind him. She helped him take off his tie and put it aside.

Sanji's cheeks were flushed, and he drunkenly watched her busy with him, then stretched out a bony wrist to gently caress her face.

Eina lovingly smoothed his soft blond hair with her fingers: "Go and take a shower later."

"You said you would give me a gift when you come back." He showed a rare childish side after being half drunk, and took her finger to lift her chin.

She kissed him funny and said, "I'll get it."

But Sanji couldn't refuse and hugged her waist, raised his body and whispered in her ear: "I want you."

The living room exuded soft dark light. In such an ambiguous atmosphere, Ena unconsciously softened and fell into Sanji's embrace, which smelled faintly of alcohol and tobacco.

His dry lips fell on her soft lips, biting and rubbing them with a little evil intention, and Ena let out a sweet moan from her nose.

They kissed passionately on the small sofa, but it was not as urgent as in the past. He described everything about her with his lips and tongue, as if whispering love words to her.

Ena quickly noticed the difference in Sanji today. She gently inserted her fingers into his hair and rubbed it subconsciously, feeling the surging love in the intertwined breath.

The two of them separated slightly panting. Eina stroked the mustache on Sanji's chin with her thumb and asked softly: "What's wrong?"

He stared at her incomparably beautiful face without blinking, and suddenly hugged her tightly and buried his face in her shoulder.

"At that time, Ena was the first person who cared about my birthday." His voice was muffled, with an imperceptible tremor.

Ena immediately understood what he was talking about.

+ + +

Since the death of his mother, no one cares about the birthday of the little blond boy, and no one is happy about his birth.

Every year on his birthday, he would leave a small piece of bread or some dessert for himself, eat it at midnight, and make humble wishes while eating.

Until he met her that year. She happened upon his simple birthday celebration ceremony, and the next day she made a fruit tower for him with her own hands and inserted a small candle.

"I can't make cakes." The silver-haired girl said awkwardly, "Let's make do with this. Happy birthday, Sanji."

He stood there blankly holding the fruit tart, with sobs in his throat that he couldn't say a word.

After a few seconds, Eina felt as if her abdomen was being tightly strangled by a small animal charging towards her. When she lowered her head, she saw the fluffy blond hair buried in her chest.

On his birthday that year, Sanji made a vow to the first "cake" made for him by someone else.

I will protect her for the rest of my life.

Sanji wants to be good to Eina for the rest of his life.

+ + +

She lingered and kissed his cheek bit by bit, her soft lips brushed against his carefully trimmed stubble, and she nestled in his arms and hugged his neck.

Every time Sanji was alone with Eina, he could not help but feel the desire for her, but this time the lust gradually subsided and they enjoyed the warm love.

He bent his long legs to hug her in front of him, but she supported his abdominal muscles and sat up, reaching out to take something out from the table beside her.

A brand new, finely crafted silver lighter was put into his hand. The woman with the same hair color smiled and poured it back into his arms: "Your gift."

Under the dim light, he turned it over and looked at it, and found a line of small words on the cover.

【Tomylittleprince】

A delicate rose is engraved near the bottom of the lighter, budding and outlining a graceful arc.

He carefully traced the lines of the rose with his slender fingers, and his heart was filled with unknown emotions for a moment.

Sanji held Eina in his arms, and a thought suddenly came to his mind.

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

Although she was reluctant to leave, Eina continued her journey after celebrating his birthday, and left the Blue City with her friends from the Sea of ​​Dreams seeing her off.

Sanji saw her again in Silob Village a few months later.

Usopp turned out to be the first member of the Straw Hat Pirates to get married. This result was both unexpected and expected.

He came to Xiluobu Village, teased the long-nosed sniper with Brooke, and then personally checked the menu at the wedding banquet.

Two days before the wedding, Ena and Zoro came together.

"Why did you come with Eina?" He looked at this old partner who had always disliked each other with great displeasure, "Green algae head, please pay attention to me!"

Zoro naturally would not show weakness: "Why are you getting angry at me and slapping your eyebrows? Isn't it her freedom to come with whomever she wants?"

"???Have you not fought me for too long?"

"Come if you want to!"

The two men quarreled again as soon as they met. Eina helplessly held her forehead, walked aside and hugged Robin happily.

"Isn't Nami here yet?" She let go and Robin shook his head: "It's almost there. She went to Cocoa West Village first, so it's a little later than expected."

She nodded, smiled and bumped her fists with Usopp: "Happy wedding, Usopp!"

The long-nosed man grinned: "This is my fiancée Keya."

Ena shook hands with the shy blonde girl and said softly: "My name is Ikegawa Ena. Congratulations, you must be happy."

Keya smiled softly: "Thank you, Ena. Usopp told me a lot about you." As she said this, her eyes unconsciously glanced at Sanji who was arguing with Zoro behind her.

Eina followed her gaze and couldn't help laughing: "Well, don't mind. These two idiots are always like that."

After recounting the past, Ena quietly tugged at Chopper.

"What's wrong Ena?" asked the excited little reindeer.

"Keep your voice down." Eina picked him up and walked aside, lowering her voice and saying, "Can you show me? Zoro and I felt uncomfortable on the way here."

She actually secretly vomited several times on the boat. However, as a crew member who has sailed around the world with One Piece, no one would attribute such symptoms to seasickness. Therefore, Ena was a little worried that something was wrong with her.

Chopper immediately became nervous: "What's wrong with you? Let me take a look!"

Ena glanced at the crowd and took Chopper into the hut where she lived: "It's just a little disgusting... and I often feel sleepy..."

Chopper blinked and took out his stethoscope seriously: "Why is this happening? Ena, did you eat something bad?"

The two of them sat at the table and checked their bodies as if they were facing an enemy. After a moment, Chopper's expression suddenly changed.

The little reindeer's eyes were shining and her face was flushed: "Ena!!"

"?" The silver-haired woman leaned forward in confusion. Chopper said something in her ear, and her expression suddenly became complicated.

+ + +

It was not difficult for Sanji to discover Ena's abnormality. After all, she suddenly paid great attention to her diet, and even didn't touch any wine at the wedding banquet. Chopper always followed her nervously.

He walked over with some worry: "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere, Ena?"

Eina hesitated and looked at him: "No."

He was not dispelled, but the current situation was obviously not suitable to continue asking. He could only kiss her gently on the forehead, and then walked away to attend to the banquet.

The moment the newlyweds exchanged rings and kissed each other, the whole audience burst into cheers. Sanji glanced at Eina inadvertently, and she was smiling and applauding, looking at Usopp and Keya with a little secret in her eyes. of light.

There was some sweat on his palms and he clenched his fists.

+ + +

Keya wore a white wedding dress and stood on the stage with a smile, her back to the crowd and raised the bouquet in her hand.

The single women behind her laughed and stretched out their hands to call her, hoping to get that happiness from the bride.

All plots are as cliche as in a movie. The bouquet was thrown high, crossed the crowd, drew a graceful arc in the air, and landed accurately in the hands of the silver-haired woman who was staying away from the incident.

The envious blessings from the women rang out, and Eina stared blankly at the bouquet in her hand, feeling at a loss. She never thought it would fall into her hands, nor did she realize how blessed she was.

"It seems that the next bride is you." Nami smiled and pushed her, "How about it? It's great luck to receive the bridal bouquet."

She stared blankly at the blooming buds, and a person's face flashed in her mind.

"If that's the case..." She murmured to herself, the corners of her mouth raised unconsciously for a second, "It seems not bad."

Silob Village held a carnival that lasted for several days due to the arrival of the Straw Hat Pirates and the Red-Haired Pirates.

On a moonlit night, Ena was called out by Sanji and walked away from the village to the seaside with the sound of the tide.

"What's wrong?" She tucked her hair behind her ears with her hands, "You're nervous."

"I heard that your trip is basically over." Sanji stood in front of her and coughed slightly with a dry throat. "After the wedding...what are your plans?"

Nai Luo, who is world-famous for her excellent knowledge, knowledge and color, has always been an afterthought when it comes to emotions. However, this time, she suddenly felt blessed and was extremely sensitive to the conversation they were having.

Eina also swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "The trip is over... I haven't thought about the next step yet."

"If you haven't decided yet..." Sanji turned his head uncomfortably, "Would you like to come with me..."

She couldn't help but lean forward a little: "Sanji, there may be something I want to tell you."

"I also have something to tell you." He put his hand into his pocket and pinched something. His voice was so nervous that it was distorted. "Let me tell you first, Ena."

"No, this is important to me."

"Listen to me Ena, I have to do this kind of thing-" "I'm pregnant."

+ + +

In the sudden silence, the sound of the waves seemed particularly abrupt and clear. Sanji felt as if someone had hit him in the head, and all the words he had managed to organize in his mouth were destroyed at that moment. He could only stare at the woman he loved most stupidly with his eyes wide open.

"Pregnant..." He opened his mouth and stammered, "When...wait, I mean...pregnant??!"

Eina nervously grabbed the corner of her clothes: "I just found out a few days ago... Calculating the days, it should be the time for me to go to the Sea of ​​Dreams."

Countless thoughts bloomed like fireworks in his mind, and the huge joy and surprise made him tremble. When he realized it, he had already hugged Eina.

He was clumsy and did not dare to exert any force, as cautiously as if he were holding a glass doll, but he could not suppress his excitement: "Why didn't you tell me right away?? Have you asked Chopper to take good care of yourself these days? You followed me yesterday? Luffy jumps up and down!!"

Seeing him like this, Eina suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, completely relaxed and smiled helplessly: "I'm fine, Chopper has been telling me things to pay attention to. Besides, it's nothing like jumping up and down, I'm just climbing a ladder." .Just a child.”

In fact, ever since he learned that she was pregnant, the famous Tony Tony Chopper began to delve into a lot of common knowledge about pregnancy. Before this, he never thought that he would one day be involved in this field.

"How could you not tell me such a big thing!" Sanji scratched his hair in annoyance, "I even made wine-filled chocolate for you that day... Fortunately, Chopper stopped you!"

"I don't need Chopper to do that kind of thing, and I know I can't eat it, right?" Eina couldn't laugh or cry, "I didn't tell you because..."

She lowered her head: "I'm just a little worried. After all, we're not married yet, and I'm not sure we're ready to have a child now. We have to be responsible for the child..."

"As long as you are willing, we can get married tomorrow." Sanji couldn't help it anymore and blurted out the words that had been brewing all night.

Under Eina's surprised gaze, the blond man knelt down on one knee with excitement and piety, and solemnly took out the small box that he had held for a long time from his pocket.

He opened the box and there was a sparkling ring.

"Although the child thing surprised me...but I also happened to plan to propose to you today." The elegant man's cheeks were slightly red at this moment, but his expression became more serious.

"I once swore to protect you for the rest of my life. At that time, I didn't think about my role in doing this. I just felt that you were my most important relative." Sanji looked at her beautiful eyes. With her emerald eyes, "Now I ask you with a hundredfold sincerity to become my wife."

"I love you, Ena. I have loved you deeply since many years ago, and I will still love you for many years to come."

"I want to protect you, and now even more so, I want to protect you and your children. I want to give you all the happiness in the world."

He said those words tremblingly to his only love.

"Marry me, Ikegawa Ena."

+ + +

They started to depend on each other in the darkest teenage years, and later met each other again in the most tender way.

He is no longer the little boy who needs to hide behind her, but a man who opens his warm and strong arms to welcome his sun.

She gave a big smile.

"I am willing."
