(Third Person POV)
Right now, its currently been a year or so & Luffy, hell, Luffy actually became the Pirate King! Alex, Ace & Sabo were so damn proud of him! Also, Robin & Alex still have a perfect relationship! Same with Luffy & Mama, Sam & Sanji etc. Those years that passed Luffy… Luffy was so damn strong he could match up to Shanks
Plus all they're bounties have risen, with Alex, Sam, Zoro, Sanji, Shay & Luffy's to have the highest, with Any Amount You Desire! Just to have them dead! Another thing is that the whole crew grew up!
Luffy's slightly matured too, only like a tini tiny bit, he's still a grinning childish Pirate King Captain! Alex has gain a few more scars too & usually when he does Robin kisses them better… to only tease him
"Oi Luffy!" he looks back from his special seat on the Sunny's head & saw Alex with a bottle of sake & those little sake cups they drunk out of when they were kids
"Alex!" he tossed Luffy a cup & he caught it as Alex poured him a cup
"Let's have a toast, brother! To the new pirate king!" soon enough Sabo & Ace came by with sake cups & cheered
"To the new Pirate King!" they drank the sake & noticed that Luffy started tearing up, he then hugged the three as he wrapped his arms around them multiple times, & tackled them onto the deck
"You guys…!" he started crying & they laughed
"But your still a crybaby!" Sabo & Alex glared at Ace before headbutting him, leaving quite a mark
"Hey that hurts!"
"Then don't call Luffy a crybaby!" they hissed at him, Luffy untangled him & the two bonked the freckled adults head "That's what you get!"
"I'm sorry I'm sorry!" Robin watched from afar & giggled at their behaviour, it was almost cute. She noticed that Alex started drinking from the bottle when suddenly he turned red & spat it out
"I wonder what's got him so flustered?" Tsume huffed as she shrugged her shoulders
"Probably talking about you, your the only reason why he always goes red! & I'm serious about that." Keisha giggled
"Not always, he gets like that around most women."
"But he's never gone that red, ever!" Mama exclaimed "Except when you were Robyn." they all nodded in agreement, she looks back at Alex & saw that he was fiddling with something in his pocket
'I wonder what that is…'
As the day processed Alex felt more embarrassed & nervous around Robin then usual he actually started avoiding her! Which she noticed easily, so she got a little hurt. Nami told her it was nothing so she went to check on Alex herself, & was shocked
"So? What's the matter, Nami?" she had to biggest grin on her face as she shook her face
"I'm not telling~" she sighed & looked at Alex, who flinched & scurried away from her vision
"*sigh* Alex-kun… did I so something wrong?" Zoro noticed Alex's behaviour towards her & instantly knew what it was so he chuckled, the day went on again & they were all eating & the whole crew saw that the two were awkwardly eating beside each other
'Did something happen between them?' they all thought except for Zoro & Nami, who shook their heads in disapproval
'If he doesn't act soon… he's gonna ruin their relationship…'
(Time Skip)
Right now the moon was out but was hidden away behind the clouds, Robin was sitting on a chair as she was watering the Echo Flowers. She let out a sigh & soon enough she felt a tear run down her face, did she do something to upset him? What did I do something wrong?
Was all she's been thinking off…
Soon enough she let out a sob as she dropped the water canister & threw her face into her hands & she started crying uncontrollably, but soon enough she heard whispers…
'I'm predicting that I've upset you, Robin-chan & I really do hope you can forgive me for making you so sad! But this whole day I've been so nervous & I don't even want to think about what happens if you… if you disagree. So here goes nothing. Nico Robin, you are the most wonderful, most amazing person I've ever met! You are the reason, other then those three, are the reason I want to live! You make me so happy, I would do absolutely anything to make you mine. I, I wonder what would have happened if I didn't help you back at the masquerade ball… if I hadn't have met you that night, I would be so lost. You brighten my whole day with you smile & your eyes… I almost seem lost or enchanted by them I melt. What I'm trying to say is…' & that was the end of it
"What? What are you trying to say?" she heard someone clear their throat so she turn around & saw Alex, he was so red he puts Shanks's hair to shame
"W-What I'm trying t-to say is…" he goes down on one knees, pulls out a black box & opens it, right now the clouds moved away from the moon & the moonlight shun… on a ring "Will you marry me?"

She started crying even more but this time, it was out of joy! She wiped the tears away & nodded her head rapidly as she smiled at Alex
"Y-Yes! I will!" he smiled as well as he slipped the ring on her finger & kissed her while twirling her in the air "Is this why you've been avoiding me?" he nods slowly
"Y-Yes… I-I was afraid you'd say no." she giggled as she nuzzeled her nose on his "I love you so much."
