Sweet and simple starter for @chivalryburdened _____

Today was a very rare, very special day. Today Luffy had been picked to accompany Sanji down to the market on the island they had recently arrived at.

While normally more of an annoying task to most of the crew (especially Zoro), it was one of excitement for Luffy. It was a task that he was really never picked for. Possibly because he would try to eat the things Sanji bought but that wasn't every time. Luffy could behave when he tried hard. He never stole from food vendors. Food was too precious to do something so disrespectful.

This was one of several reasons why he was trying to be on his best behavior. If he was good, maybe Sanji would ask him again!

The mid-afternoon sun wasn't too bright. The temperature of the autumn island just cool enough to make a light hoodie feel snuggly against Luffy's skin. He really wasn't the biggest fan of the bulk of winter clothes. Clothes used in autumn were much less restrictive and honestly fun to wear.

Unfortunately, autumn islands came with downsides. The greatest one being the rainbow of leaves that fluttered loose from the tree branches. Luffy was stopped there in the middle of the dirt path that led to the village. Head leaned back, his hood threatening to slip back off his hair. Mouth open slightly in wonder as he watched colorful leaves sway in the breeze that ruffled the captain's clothes. A few orange and purple leaves breaking free and left to flutter by before float down to tumble with the rest that littered the path.

He watched for several long moments. Mesmerized by the melodic sway of nature. His eyes fluttered as the trance of shuffling leaves lifted from him. Spirit calmed by nature's melody, he smiled. Thoughts returning to Sanji who was a little further up the path. Luffy fixed his hood before he bounded over to the cook. Smile growing steadily into a grin as he slipped his bare hand into Sanji's.

"What do we need to get from the market again?" He asked, swinging their linked hands absentmindedly.
