Whatever Makes You Happy



Usopp Is Mortified



Usopp had never been so embarrassed in his life. He never meant to do it! No lie, which would be a first. But he just happened to stumble upon their little secret. It just happened.

Flash Back


It was a normal day as the Merry Go had stopped at a port for the day and they had decided to go search around. Usopp realized something was missing and then realized that he was missing his slingshot that he left in the men’s bedroom. Usually he would never leave anywhere without his slingshot but they had been at sea for so long they were eager to get off the ship and explore.

Strange thing was that Luffy and Zoro weren’t with them. Things had gotten a bit weird ever since the hide-and-seek game they played a week ago. Luffy seemed to spend more time with Zoro and Zoro would usually get annoyed with Luffy if he kept bugging him but not once did Zoro snap at him or get annoyed.

Usopp knew that the two of them were close, so maybe they were even closer. Usopp didn’t know for sure, but he had a feeling that Nami knew. She seemed to be a lot more cheerful then she usually is. He also noticed Zoro glaring at her. Maybe she was blackmailing Zoro into being nicer to Luffy?

Usopp sighed. Trying to figure out was going on was annoying. He supposed he was off track.

He was currently running back to the ship and climbing back onto it. As he headed under the deck he briefly wondered where Luffy and Zoro were but just shrugged it off. As he got to the door he opened it and stopped. His eyes widen with shock.

Luffy was on the ground, underneath Zoro, with his shirt torn off. Zoro, who was straddling Luffy, had his shirt and sash on ground next to him and was attacking Luffy’s neck.

Zoro froze and Luffy blinked and looked at Usopp and blinked again.

“Usopp?” Luffy said, confused at why he was in the room.

Usopp turned as red as a cherry and unconsciously saw his sling shot on the ground. He made a grab for it and then ran out the door.

“I’msosorryIneversawanythingsorrysorrysorry.” He said soaring out the door and onto the deck and off the ship and finding everyone else.


Usopp stopped and panted as he finally reached the small group and put his hands on his knees and panted.

“What’s wrong with you?” Asked Sanji, his eyebrow raised.

“I-they-was-…” Usopp took the quick moment to think. Would they believe him? The obsessive liar? As much as he would like to believe it he knew they wouldn’t believe him. Hell, he wouldn’t have believed it if he hadn’t been there.

He sighed.

“N-nothing.” He said, finally getting his breath back. Everyone looked at each other and just shrugged.

As they all walked away, never noticing the evil little grin on Nami’s face as she guessed what had happen.
