Two Years

Two years. It has been two years since you were split up. Two long, hard, and eventful years since you have seen the Straw Hat crew. Walking on the soapy grass of the Sabaody Archipelago brought back memories, both painful and joyful. You sighed deeply, remembering all the fun you had, bouncing up and down on the soap bubbles a couple of years ago with the crew. Just being back here was extremely nostalgic, causing your mind to overflow with the memories of the past. But, they were only memories, and you were so giddy on the inside, knowing that you would soon be able to see your fellow crewmates again, and out of them, there was one you wanted to see for so long. You couldn't wait to see everyone again. Smiling brightly with a confident step in your stride, you picked up your pace and headed over to grove 41, where the Thousand Sunny has been docked for all these years.

Quickly approaching the ship, your smile grew wider as you saw the faint outline of someone on the ship. As you got closer, you realized the person wasn't wearing any pants, which made you giggle slightly, knowing that the cyborg Franky was on the ship at the moment. Soon, you were standing just beside the ship, gazing up at it in awe. Not a single scratch, just as it was left. You noticed a slight glaze over the ship, meaning that Rayleigh had done the coating on it for the trip to Fishman Island.

Bursting with excitement, you climbed aboard the Sunny and on to the lawn, now covered in the tough bubble coating. The sound of your feet raised awareness in Franky, causing him to turn around. At first, his expression was alarm as he poised himself to attack, but he soon dropped his stance upon realizing that it was you. He smiled widely, storing away his weapons, and approaching you for a happy greeting.

"_______! It's you! It's suuuuuper to see you again!" He said happily.

"Nice to see you to Franky!" You greeted him back. "I can't believe how much you've changed! You're like a robot now! That's so damn cool!" You said in awe. "How will you work on the ship with those huge hands of yours?!"

"Check it." Franky said with a goofy smile as he held out his hands. "I've got HANDS INSIDE MY HANDS~!" He said as two smaller yellow hands came out of the palms of his red ones.

"Oh my god that's awesome!" You replied, laughing. "That has got to be one of the coolest things you'll ever be able to apply to a regular task!"

"Quite the suuuuper change, huh?" Franky grinned. "I can see you've changed a bit too _______! For starters, your hair changed in length! It suits you quite well!"

"Aww, thanks man!" You said with a smile. "So, has anyone else shown up yet?" You added.

"As a matter of fact, yes! Chopper, Nami, and Usopp were here a while ago, but they left to go do some shopping most likely." Franky said.

"U-usopp was here?! Damn! I guess I just missed him then!" You said with a hint of frustration in your tone.

"Well, they shouldn't be that far off. The shopping district is near, so try checking over there." Franky suggested.

"I will!" You said. "I'll just leave my stuff by the swing, kay?"

Just as you put your things down and started to leave, you were stopped by Franky for a moment.

"_______, I have a question."

"Ask away bro." You said.

"The reason you're heading out, well, just my intuition, but even after two years, do you still, you know..." Franky hinted, trying not to sound as rude as he thought he was.

You understood what he was hinting at and a light blush dusted your cheeks. "Yes Franky, even after two years, I still do kinda... care for Usopp." You admitted.
