What is With Him?

"Are You Alright?"

A/N; This is my FIRST UsoSan fic! Im immensely excited. I am obsessed with the duo right now. Game plan; write, sleep.

Rated mature for topics discussed, sex, and vivid descriptions of injuries.

(SUPER SHORT THE CHAPTER IS LIKE... 50x THE AMOUNT EXPLAINED) Chapter summary; Chopper just joined the crew. Sanji, Nami, Usopp, Luffy, and Zoro are all on the deck, its late at night, Chopper, Vivi, and Karoo are sleeping. The crew notices something off about Sanji. They ignore it. Days pass, Sanji is still acting strange, his feet are bandaged, very unlike Sanji to even bandage his feet. Nami, Usopp, and Zoro end up asking Chopper what happened when he was treating Sanji's wounds. Chopper says his feet are his only injured spots.. strange. The crew decides to send Usopp to ask. Usopp has his own struggles, trust, believing others, and internalized homophobia.

Oh boy. Bad idea.

I hope you enjoy this! It wasn't the most fun to write.. considering I too went through what Sanji/Usopp thinks of themselves.

All headcannons.

Thank you!
And as always, enjoy!

Signing out,
Elise.

   "Oi, Usopp, can you help set the table?" Sanji had just finished making a midnight snack for the crew, consisting mainly of rice balls, grilled fish, pasta, and Nami's tangerine pies, their favorites. Sanji's silent steps make their way from the kitchen counter to the table where Nami, Zoro, Usopp, and Luffy are chatting. "Oh? Yeah, okay," Usopp begins to stand, looking at the floor. "Ah? What are those for?" Usopp asks Sanji, "Oh, these?" Sanji lifts his foot from the ground, "Some guy with a sword came at me after Luffy sent Wapol flying." Sanji blatantly lied. No one noticed, Zoro, Nami, and.. a now sleeping Luffy, stopped their idle chatting to listen. Nami and Zoro began to talk again as Sanji handed plates to Usopp.
   Usopp is a very observant person, surprisingly. Sanji never kept bandages on his feet, he removed them immediately, saying, 'These constrict my movement,' before tossing them in the trash. Usopp could only assume Chopper forced Sanji to continue wearing bandages. Sanji had to have respect for their newest, youngest, cutest, and doctor of the crew right? This is partially true, Sanji had great respect to anyone with exceeding capabilities in their field, but truly, he loved Chopper's cuteness.
After Usopp and Sanji finished setting the table for their late night snack conversation combusted into all the Straw Hats in the room. Of course, Luffy was engulfed in his food, and rarely joined in on the 'action-packed' story Usopp was telling. "So, after I attacked the robber my dad appeared out of no where!" Usopp was telling an obviously fake story about a place called "Sniper Island", and how he met his father, 'Super King Sniper Yassop' there after defeating some robbers and saving a maiden. Sanji and Nami were engulfed into Usopp's tall tale, loving every moment of it. From Usopp's elaborate hand movements to his rapid speaking, and change of voice pitch for different characters. Seeing Usopp tell these fake stories using only his imagination at the time made them smile. Zoro, however was more focused on the sleeping Luffy on his shoulder, mouth open snoring. "Lets hear another one," Nami's soothingly smooth voice touched the ears of the other Straw Hat members, "Oh? Someone likes my stories huh?" Usopp laughed into his mug before placing it on thr table. "Of course, your stories strike some unbeknownst imagination in my own mind," Sanji leaned back into his chair, talking around his 11th cigarette of the night. Simple words from the cook had Usopp shaking in his boots, for fear? No, for a different reason. Love?
Zoro scoffed, wrapping an arm around his sleeping capatin, "One more would be nice, its comfy here, hearing you chatter makes it better." Usopp couldn't tell whether this was an attempt to be rude or kind. Sanji laughed, brightening the whole room another shade, "Damn marimo! Really giving out compliments?" Nami could only giggle as well.
Usopp was mid-way through his second story when he noticed the crew was beginning to fall asleep on him. Deciding in that moment, finishing this story quickly, and getting the others to bed, would be the best course of action. "And that is how I met a giant tadpole!" Usopp completed the story. "Mm, giant tadpole stew doesn't sound to bad," Sanji mumbled, laying his head on his arms, falling asleep after a few seconds. Nami was standing up, and Zoro was snoring into Luffy's hair. Quite the bunch, huh? "Well, that's enough for tonight." Nami said, smiling as she walked out of the dining room. "'Night!" She said, closing the door behind her. Usopp had watch that night, so having company for 1/3 of it was nice.
Leaving the dining room as well, Usopp headed towards the starboard side of the ship. Watching the waves lull back and forth was a favorite of Usopps'.
   At one point, Usopp ended up back in the kitchen. He sat across the table from the sleeping first mate and captain, next to him was Sanji.
