Witchy Way from the East (One piece x reader)

Chapter ✩~6

You went at it for a while, searching around the mountain for any familiar entrance of caves to Sanji. Only when you had gotten to the other side of the mountain did the area seem more promising to Sanji's eye even though it had been night as they were climbing the mountain, so he couldn't have that clear vision of the place. But you were getting closer, you could feel it as you continued.

"That bush on that edge looks familiar," Sanji called as you were passing a bush growing on a small sharp edge of the mountain. You made a sudden stop in front of the bush the way Sanji crashed into your back while you were unaffected by the sudden stop, already prepared for it.

"Did you pass it?" You asked the blonde, turning to glance at him with round eyes as he rubbed his face that had hit into your back.

"Yeah, I think we climbed further upwards from it," Sanji answered, pondering, making you direct the broom upwards slowly this time, so the dart-browned male had time to look around even though he was freaking out a bit and tightly hugging you as he felt like he would be falling any time soon. While routing the broom you made sure to scan the areas around as well if you would get a glimpse of something while Sanji was looking fiercely around as well. "There!"

"Hm?!" You hummed, coming to an absurd stop, not wanting to miss whatever Sanji detected. You straightened your broom, so you were now sitting straight on it, your backs no longer towards the ground kilometers below you. Due to the sudden movement, Sanji slid closer to you, his hips rubbing on your rear in a very suggestive way, making the blonde's face flush pink while you were oblivious to the happenings behind you. You were too busy searching for what Sanji had found just a moment ago to feel what you should have felt. "Where did you see it?" You asked, turning to look at the male behind you who had one hand covering his pinkish face.

"Ah- there (Y-Y/n)-chwann~" Sanji quickly pointed to the mouth of the cave on a higher edge. You looked at him a moment longer before turning to look in the direction Sanji was trying hard to get you to look, away from him.

"Oh there," you exclaimed as you now only noticed the cave. You took you two to the cave where Sanji was pretty quick to jump off your broom and light a cigarette as he seemed restless. You got off your broom after him and looked at him questioningly, making him more fidgety under your gaze. "Where to now?"

"Umm, ahead, we found them growing at the other entrance of the cave," he told you, starting to walk in the direction with you following. You nodded, deciding to stop trying to figure out what got him so weird all of the sudden and just find your precious flowers. "Be careful (Y/n)-chwan, there are some obstacles ahead," Sanji warned while continuing to stare ahead.

"Hm-mm," you hummed absent-mindedly while you looked around the walls of the cave which got more and more darker with the step you took ahead. Before you got to take another step ahead Sanji outstretched his arm in front of you to stop you from taking another step. You looked questioningly down at his arm but then noticed that you were on the edge of a pretty deep-looking gorge. On the other side of it, the cave's pathway you needed presumably to still use continued. "Right, those obstacles," you chuckled dryly to yourself.

"I will help you over there, (Y/n)-chwan," Sanji offered, but you held your hand in the air, dismissing him while you lightly shook your head to deny his offer.

"I can handle myself," you muttered to him, glancing at him with a slight amusement plastered on your face as you took a step ahead on the drop. Sanji's breath hitched as his cigarette fell from his lips before relief washed over him, seeing that you were floating over the drop towards the other side. "Oh right, I haven't told you, but I can float the weight I can lift."

"Wow, you are really amazing, (Y/n)-chwan~" Sanji called behind you, watching you land gracefully on your feet on the other side of the gorge. "You can't help but keep surprising me with your many talents~" Sanji praised before, making a leap and jumping over the gorge effortlessly. He seemed to be himself again, assuming so how he was so gushingly talking to you again. Well, it was good so he could now put all his focus on finding those flowers for you.
