The Chef boy| Sanji x reader {Taz Skylar} fanfic

11 '𝑴𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂𝒈𝒆-𝒊𝒏-𝒂-𝒃𝒐𝒕𝒕𝒍𝒆'

After reaching the message-in-a-bottle, you unfold it, revealing the contents with a cursive handwriting. And there, at the bottom of the message, you see a signature name: Uncle Boone. "Boone?" you say softly. It feels so familiar, just like Usopp and the crew mentioned before. They even knew you're part of the Boone Pirates because of your tattoo! But you decide to hold off on reading the mysterious letter until you're ready to see its contents.

As you start to read the message from the very beginning, your eyebrows furrow in confusion when you see your name. It's unexpected and catches you off guard. You can't help but wonder what this message could be about.

// Dear my niece Y/n,

I can't be certain if you're still with us, but I hope this message finds you amidst the storm of emotions. I know I wasn't the best uncle while you were growing up, and I apologize for that. Despite my flaws, I deeply care about you. It pains me to see our hometown devastated in Kala Island by the Phalyn Pirates. So if you're still with us, please return and help the crew save the village and its people from danger. I wish I could have protected you and everyone else. I genuinely hope you're safe, my niece.

                                                                                       Sincerely yours,

                                                                                                        Uncle Boone//

As you read the message, your eyes land on the word: "my niece." This revelation stirs up a mix of emotions within you. On one hand, the idea of having an uncle and potentially discovering more about your family is exciting. But on the other hand, it leaves you uncertain. You're not sure if you should feel happy or apprehensive about this newfound connection. It's a complex and bittersweet moment of self-discovery

As you were lost in your thoughts, a sudden clattering sound of a sword hitting the floor made you wince in pain. The tingling sensation in your ears triggered another random memory. You saw yourself witnessing a fierce sword fight between two men. The first man, older and wiser, seemed to be the one who wrote the message. The second man, from your dream, appeared angry and exhausted. Suddenly, everything went dark, as if that was the only fragment of the memory you had. Tears welled up in your eyes, and you instinctively wiped them away. Confusion washed over you as you realized you were crying. Why were you feeling this way?

Zoro hurried over to you, picking up the sword he dropped, and looked at you with genuine concern written all over his face. "You good?" he asked in his straightforward manner, showing that he cares about your well-being. The pain slowly faded away as you felt comforted by his presence. "Yeah, I think I'm good now. Thanks for asking, Zoro," you replied. As you looked into his eyes, you couldn't help but notice a warmth and kindness emanating from him. It made him seem different, in a good way.

"What is it? Another memory?" Zoro asked, his tone lacking affection but still showing that he cares. You nodded, confirming that it was indeed another memory. You noticed that he never took his eyes off you, his gaze unwavering. "Care to tell the crew?" he inquired. Taking a deep breath, you replied, "I'll let them know, but I need some time to process it first." Jumping to conclusions wasn't your style. Zoro seemed to understand and turned his head, gazing at the sea. Yet, he kept the conversation going, showing his continued interest in talking to you until you felt comforted. It meant a lot to have his support.

As you talk, you've began smiling and laughing with Zoro, forming a bond that feels like the start of a friendship with him, You never thought he'd look that handsome when smiling. he also talked about how he ended up joining the crew by saying Luffy saved his life from the Marines when he was getting executed tied to the cross, he would be dead if it wasn't for Luffy, he said it's where they first met and the time he had gained respect to him as a pirate hunter, but now he became a pirate instead.

"..and my dream was to become the greatest swordsman in the world.." he paused ,".. as I promised her" he said, As Zoro spoke about his dream of becoming the greatest swordsman in the world, you could feel his determination and nostalgia. He paused for a moment, his face turning serious as he mentioned a promise he made to someone. You couldn't help but wonder who that person was, but you decided to save that question for later, sensing that he might not be ready to talk about it.

But as he shared more of his experiences and the story of his life, you realized that Zoro wasn't as cold and distant as he seemed at first. He had a good heart and a strong sense of loyalty. Your conversations together were abruptly interrupted by the loud commotion of the rest of the crew on the ship's deck. It was a reminder that even in the midst of your personal connection, you were still part of a lively and vibrant crew.

"Hey, Y/n and Zoro!" Luffy shouted, and you both turned to see the rest of the crew gathered on the deck, looking all excited.

"Wanna join the crew for a game of truth or dare? It'll be so much fun!" Luffy exclaimed, his eyes sparkling with anticipation. The word 'fun' echoed in your mind, it might be really fun.

But as your eyes scanned the deck, searching for that special someone who always brings warmth, softness, and fuzzy feelings to your heart, you couldn't help but smile unconsciously when you found him. You and Zoro settled down next to the rest of the crew, and you chose to sit next to Sanji. You could feel his gaze on you, and it made your heart flutter with anticipation.

Before the game could kick off, everyone gathered together, their excitement palpable. Luffy took charge, explaining the rules with great enthusiasm. "So firstly! I'll explain the rules of the game! The player must choose between Truth or Dare! If you choose truth, you can ask any question about their life, habits, or relationships. BUT!" Luffy paused, adding a touch of suspense to the moment.

"If you choose dare, you have to do whatever the other player asks. If you refuse, there will be consequences, like having to drink one of these!" Luffy exclaimed, raising a cup of alcohol. You couldn't help but feel a mix of excitement and a hint of danger. This game was definitely going to spice things up!
