Your Straw hat crew stopped at an island to stock up on supplies and explore while they're at it. Your team split up in search for whatever they needed. Some went in a group or pair. You were in a group with your Captain, Luffy, Usopp, and Zoro. Na I and Robin invited you to go shopping, but you refused. You knew how crazy she would get when it came to paying for expensive things. Although it was nice to have some girl time, you had other things you wanted to get such as weapons. Usopp needed materials for his sling shot, Zoro wanted to check for swords and Puffy being alone was also a bad idea so you dragged him with you.
You lead the way in search for a weaponry shop only to halt in your tracks. The group continued to chatter amongst themselves as they pass you by. Zoro is the first to notice your absence. He turns to you,
"Oi! (Y/n)! What's wrong?" He hollers. The two remaining boys turn to you worried. Your eyes held stars in them. A wide smile gracing your lips as you cannot contain your excitement. A gasp escapes as you stare at rhe poster to confirm what you read. You sprint across a stone bridge to tear one of the millions of posters on the cement wall. The main one that caught your eye is of a poster with fire as it's background. Bright, bold red letters above which reads, "Spicy Challenge!" Your crewmates chase you down carrying a serious expression. When they see your shivering form from behind they start to get even more worried.
"(Y/n)! What's the matter? Hey!" Usopp tries to reach your shoulder to turn you around only for you to do it yourself. They jump from your unexpected squeal.
"Look at this! I can't believe it!" Is all you exclaim. The boys are perplexed by your comment. Their eyes simultaneously shift to the poster in your hands.
"Spicy...challenge?" Luffy reads aloud. You nod.
"What's so special about this?" Usopp asks. Your smile widens.
"It's not the challenge I'm interested in. It's the prize. The winner of the Spicy eating challenge gets these electro wave gauntlets! What's best is they are handcrafted by my favorite blacksmith, Elliot Smith!" You squeal once more. Luffy perks his ears already dazed over the contest. Stars shine in his eyes as he drools.
"Free food?" You snicker. You figured that's all he needed to hear to gain his interest.
"Yeah and Luffy since you love food I was wondering if you would enter on my behalf." You rub the back of your head sheepishly. Your captain stares at you as if contemplating on your offer. Usually he takes it right away no matter your reasons. As long as they benefit him and his stomach. You became nervous but kept your stance. His gaze intensifies the longer he kept quiet. If only you knew what was going on in his head. He was admiring your sheepish expression. It was rare to see and he enjoyed seeing it from you. Ever since you joined his crew it became a rare sight. You were usually stoic and cocky and less bubbly like a woman usually is, or so he figured from being around Nami and Robin.
