A Good Morning

                                    

                                          
Big round blue eyes open, turning around to look at the side. But not finding the clock on the nightstand. She sits up and looks at the room she finds herself in. It's not her room at home. She turns more to see another body next to her. It's not her parents or either one of her twin brothers. It's Sapphire. Memories of the day before came rushing forward. The pool at Robin and Franky's, the others, the water gun fight, eating diner and they must have fallen asleep.
                          
She looks around. It must be morning now. She moves off the bed, setting her feet down on the ground. Letting her friend sleep more she makes her way to the door, opening the door to an empty hallway. She stops and turns around as Sapphire mumbles awake. She goes back to the bed.
                          
"Sapphire are you awake?" she asks. The other girl blinks awake. They make eye contact.
                          
"It wasn't a dream." she says.
                          
"I'm going to check on the twins." Megumi says.
                          
"I'll go to." she says sitting up. Megumi waits and watches as Sapphire gets off the bed. They smile at each other. They walk down the hallway checking the rooms near them. They finally stop when they spot the twins sleeping on the bed, barricaded on the edge so they can't fall off the bed. They get on the bed to join the two. Megumi always checks her brothers after she wakes up. She smiles at the way they slept, safe and sound.
                          
Megumi and Sapphire sit up when they hear someone coming in the room. "Morning daddy." she smiles.
                          
"Morning ladies. The twins still sleeping?" he asks with a smile getting closer.
                          
"Yup." Megumi nods.
                          
"Then what do you want for breakfast?" Sanji smiles. Megumi looks down to think then looks at Sapphire.
                          
"What should we have for breakfast Sapphire?"
                          
"I'm.." she freezes being put on the spot, "can we have pancakes?"
                          
"Sure what else?" He asks, watching as the get off the bed.
                          
"We can have more?"
                          
"Of course. Brush your teeth and I'll start on the pancakes. Mommy should be up soon." Sanji tells them leaving them to go brush their teeth. Sapphire following Megumi, going back to their room and going into the luggage to get their toothbrushes and toothpaste. When they finish they put their things back and go down stairs to the kitchen. No one else is there besides Sanji as he move around the kitchen. He turns to see the girls standing there, next to each other, he gives them a smile. "What would you like on the side?"
                          
"How about hashbrowns and fruit salads!" Megumi suggest.
                          
"Excellent choice." Sanji says with a smile. "Why don't you both sit down." Sanji suggest. The girls go and sit down at the table, the blonde can hear both of them giggling and talking. Sanji continue to cook, making four pancakes, two medium hash browns and two bowls of fruit salad. Half for each. With both plates set the blonde serves them.
                          
Sapphire stares at the amazing plate of food served for her. She's never had such a beautiful and wonderful smelling breakfast. At her house they have cereal every morning. Nothing like this. Both her pancakes are fluffy like a cloud. Her hashbrown perfectly crispy and brown. Fruit salad bowl full with different fruit. She looks at Megumi who thanked for the food then starts eating. Sapphire then starts eating herself. She loves it when she's with Megumi's family. The food always taste amazing with her.
                          
"It looks like we're late." Nami asks. Sanji smiles as he comes into the room, a huge plate of steaming pancakes in one hand, the crispy hashbrowns on a plate in the other.
                          
"No, just in time, I served the girls first." he explains to the group noticing two people and the twins not here yet.
                          
"Good I'm hungry." Luffy smiles as he sits at a seat, getting a plate in front of him and stacking pancakes on it. A foot comes down at the straw hat wearing boys head.
                          
"Save some for the others, I'll make a second batch." Sanji warns. He smiles at Sapphire who stare at them. It's one thing thing to spend time with the group but it's another to have spend a whole day and slept over. They all sat down in a spot at the table.
                          
"And that's normal?" they turn to see Robin walking with Zoro holding the twins in his arms.
                          
"Not for everyone, some experience it, some don't at all, others get it late." Zoro answers the woman as he puts the twins in their seat.
                          
"What are you two talking about?"  Usopp asks. Sanji going back to the kitchen to get the fruit salad and the twins food too.
                          
"Just asking questions about pregnancy." Robin answers. By now it's not a secret that Robin and Franky are planning to have kids of their own soon. Sanji makes his way in setting down their bowls. 
                          
"Since we are asking questions, Franky I was wondering if we could use a car? I don't have enough space in mine." Sanji asks. Franky looks at him. Right Sanji hasn't upgraded his car so they don't have space in the car for their guest.
                          
"I think I have something."
                          
"Really? Thanks." Sanji smiles as he sits down to help feed the twins.
                          
They ate happily. Sanji cleaned the kitchen as everyone packed their bags getting ready to go back home. After finishing cleaning the kitchen Sanji goes with Franky to move the car seat from his car to the one Franky is lending him. Actually trading, Franky decided to just trade the car. He knew that both of them are to busy to actively search for a car that they actually need. The car they have won't be able to fit the pups when they grow and if they have sleepovers for Megumi they will need the extra space. Plus Franky has a hunch the twins aren't going to be the last kids those two are going to have. They will need this car upgrade. Sanji was reluctant at first about the trade but decided for it because he didn't want to search for the right car. At least right now.
                          
With everyone done they said goodbye and left for home.

Reiju sat in her car as she wait for who knows how long. She has been sitting in her car for hours waiting for them to come back home. She knew that they left things on a bad note but she didn't want that to be how it is.
                          
She turns her head when a large car comes into the parking lot of her younger brother house. She sits up watching because she knows that's not her brothers car. She continue to stare, watching as the two front doors open and out comes Sanji and Zoro. They open the passenger side door, letting their daughter out along with another young girl that Reiju knows is not their kid.
                          
Reiju jumps in her skin when her phone dings. She turns and grabs it to see it's a text from her father asking where she is. She sends a text back saying she's on her way. As she starts her car she takes one last look to her brother. She watches as he happily carries one of his boys to the house. She sighs then drives away.
                          
"Where were you?" her father commands the answer to as she walks in to his office. Her other three brothers sitting on the couch in the corner of the room. Reiju turns her head.
                          
"I went to see Sanji." she tells him, eyes looking straight back at his.
                          
"Why? He's nothing to us. Him and his husband."
                          
"Why are you so against him? He's done nothing." she wonders.
                          
"He left us, now he can have fun with those children his." 
                          
"Your grandchildren. Those test came back. From the blood, all of them. They are Sanji's and Zoros kids. They are your grandchildren and you know they will be your only ones." she says, a glare forming on her face. She doesn't understand and she may never.
