Description
*~Four Months Later~*
“Woohoo done!”
I leaned back in my wheelchair and spun on the back two wheels. I rolled out of my workshop and up to the top deck to grab a well deserved snack. When I came to the stairs, I activated my mechanical legs; the wheels on my chair extended out into legs and climbed up the stairs then returned to their original place once I was on deck.
“Hey (Y/N),” Franky greeted. “Did you finish the new modifications on the cannons?”
“Yup! All done! I’m so happy!”
I popped a few wheelies in excitement until a loud growl interrupted my laughter.
“And I’m hungry! Kitchen here I come!”
“She seems happier lately,” Nami pointed out.
“Maybe breaking her spine was the best thing for her,” Robin answered.
“How could you be so cold?!” Usopp and Chopper screamed in unison.
Robin just smiled at herself.
Back to me, I reached out to open the door to the kitchen, rolled myself in, then shut the door.
“Mon amour,” Sanji greeted from the counter where he was prepping. “What brings you here?”
“Hunger,” I smiled. “Mind if I grab a snack before dinner?”
“Anything for you.”
Sanji kneeled down in front of me and kissed my forehead lovingly.
“What would you like for me to prepare for you?”
“I can manage Sanji, but thank you.”
“Are you sure?”
I nodded, “Yes. I’m in a wheelchair, not helpless.”
A warm hand placed itself on my calf, it was a slight sensation, but I still felt it. I smiled warmly at Sanji.
“Did you feel that?” he asked.
“Yeah,” I muttered. “A little.”
“Well that’s good, maybe you’ll—”
“Sanji let’s not go there please.”
He sighed heavily but resumed his normal smile, pecked my lips, and stood back up.
“Please help yourself to anything you want. I will have dinner ready in a couple of hours.”
“Thank you Sanji.”
I rolled over to the fridge to pull out some fruit when I felt a sharp pulse shoot through my right leg.
“Ahh!” I groaned.
Suddenly, some fruit fell out of the fridge and hit the floor while I grabbed onto my leg and tried to rub it.
“What happened, what’s wrong?” Sanji questioned while coming to my side. “Are you hurt?”
“N-no. But my leg! It—it’s hurting!”
“I’ll get Chopper!”
“No!” I grabbed his hand. “Please…don’t bother anyone.”
“(Y/N),” Sanji grabbed onto my pained leg and caressed it gently. “Stop being afraid of asking for help. You’ve made it this far, and now there’s a possibility that you can walk again with these sensations you get. Will it really hurt to get a checkup?”
As the pain settled and the feelings of Sanji’s hands on my leg disappeared, I thought for a moment. I could no longer feel his hands even though I knew they were there, and there would be a possibility that I could walk again if there are still random stings of pain. I guess it wouldn’t hurt to ask Chopper to take a look since it’s been three months since I’ve checked.
“Okay, but let me help you clean up.”
“I can handle this, please go and get a check up.”
I nodded my head and turned to leave the kitchen to go out to the deck. I should’ve looked to the side but it was too late because Luffy ran into me broadside knocking me to the deck floor out of my chair.
“Tag! I got you Luffy!” Chopper called.
“No fair, (Y/N) helped!”
The door to the kitchen slammed open to a fearful Sanji.
“WHAT DID YOU IDIOTS DO?!”
“What the hell is wrong with you?!” Nami added.
“Oh sorry (Y/N),” Luffy smiled.
“AH! (Y/N)!” Chopper yelled.
“I think I’ll take my chances and stay in the chair,” I muttered while pushing myself up.
Sanji rushed over and helped me get back into my chair. My lower back was quite sore, but I couldn’t get too mad at Luffy and the others for playing especially because I should’ve known they were playing.
“Guys, they didn’t know I was coming out. It’s alright.”
“It’s not alright! They could’ve—”
I put my finger against his lips to stop him from continuing.
“It’s fine.”
“Let’s go to the infirmary so I can make sure,” Chopper suggested.
“I was actually on my way to come and see you,” I chuckled.
Chopper and I made our way into the infirmary where he proceeded to do x-rays and strength tests to see if I felt anything. I explained that I was having spasms more often and it was strong enough that I kicked out produce from the fridge.
Waiting anxiously for my results was painful but I needed to be patient if I wanted Chopper to give me accurate results. Time seemed to tick by slowly to where it almost became silent to me; I blocked out everything trying to calm my nerves.
*Would I be able to walk again? I don’t want to be a burden on the crew anymore. I hope this is true. Please…please…please…*
“(Y/N)!”
“Huh?”
“I have your results,” Chopper said nervously.
“Okay…”
“Well, besides the slight bruising from the fall that Luffy caused, your thoracic vertebrae is showing signs of healing and that’s what’s causing your spasms of pain. But there is a showing of a pinched nerve, however with a reconstructive surgery I can set it back in place.”
“Does that mean I can walk again?”
Chopper looked up from his paper and beamed a wide smile at me and nodded his head. I gasped then grabbed Chopper and held him close to me.
“Thank you so much Chopper! I owe you everything!”
“You owe me nothing but your good health (Y/N),” he hugged back. “But could you loosen up, can’t breathe…”
“Oh, sorry Chopper.”
“*Cough* It’s alright. We have some time until we get to the next island so I have plenty of time to do the surgery.”
“What if tomorrow morning?” I asked eagerly.
“Sounds good, but after dinner tonight you can’t eat anything. Only minimal water and no breakfast tomorrow.”
“Done!”
*~Timeskip~*
“(Y/N), can you hear me?” a voice echoed.
“Hmm?”
My eyes fluttered opened and my vision blurred at the white light over me. Moving my head slightly to adjust to the light, a hand placed itself on my cheek caressing the skin gently.
“Mon amour?”
“Sanji,” my voice cracked. “Water please.”
“Yes, yes.”
Sanji picked up a glass of water and held it to my lips. I was able to take the glass from his hands and drink the whole glass of water. My throat was relieved of it’s dryness.
“How do you feel?” he asked.
“Other than a little woozy, I don’t feel different. How long was I out?”
“About two days from the anesthesia. Do you have any feeling in your legs?”
I tried to move my toes first, and there was slight movement, but nothing more. I reached down to touch my thigh, and I could feel my hand there, but I couldn’t move my leg. I sighed in disappointment; I was glad that I had feeling back but I was disappointed that I couldn’t move my legs.
Chopper entered the room and was shocked to see me awake.
“Oh, (Y/N) you’re awake. How are you feeling?”
“I have feeling in my legs, but I can’t move them.”
“Okay. Well the surgery was successful in setting your spine back to normal, but the process of getting back to walking will take some time with therapy. So walking will come with time; a good sign is that you do have feeling in your legs.”
“So therapy should get me back to normal, but for now I need to stay in my chair.”
“Yes that’s right. But everything looks good so you can move around when you’re ready.”
“Okay, thank you for everything Chopper,” I smiled.
He smiled while patting my foot then left out of the room.
“Well, no use staying here any longer,” I pushed myself up. “I should get back to work.”
“You just woke up from a surgery,” Sanji tried to push me back, “you should rest.”
“No,” I pushed back. “I’ve been resting for long enough. I need to design a new defense system for the ship.”
“Must you be difficult?” Sanji joked.
“I can’t sit here and feel sorry for myself for not being able to walk. I have to do something.”
“Alright, but let me know if you need anything.”
I nodded at Sanji as he helped me out of the bed and back into my chair. I proceeded in going about my day like I normally did after I changed and cleaned up a little. I began working on new schematics for the defense system that would not require the rest of the crew to hold onto the cannons while they fire.
The schematics took most of my time until dinner, where I discussed with Franky on how we should build the trigger system. We decided that it was best to start tomorrow and not late tonight just in case one of the cannons go off we don’t want to wake the crew.
After dinner I helped Sanji clean up, against his wishes, so that the others could get their showers and assign who’s on watch tonight. After we finished I decided to go and get a bath myself. I retrieved some clothes then made my way to the showers. I took a bit extra care with getting into the bath because my spine was still sore and I didn’t want to undo what Chopper did to fix it.
I settled deep into the water to relax; the hot water was doing wonders for my back. I decided to try and move my toes again but I couldn’t. Sighing heavily I dipped my head below the water to wet my hair when I suddenly heard another splash in the tub.
I shot up quickly and noticed that Sanji had joined me in the bath. Though it was pointless, I still covered myself the best I could out of reflex.
“Sanji! W-what are you doing?”
He said nothing as he approached me with a predatory look in his visible eye. A heavy blush rose to my face as I realized where this was going to go.
“Sanji…wait.”
His hand placed itself on my right ankle and started to slide his hand up my calf.
“I’ll stop if you want me to. But I want to help you walk again; from making you feel me.”
A heavy blush rose to my cheeks, as Sanji leaned over and he started to trail gentle kisses down my neck. Goosebumps formed all over my body, even on my legs. When Sanji traced his tongue across my collarbone, I moaned out which turned him on even more.
“S-Sanji!” I breathed.
Sanji raised his head to ghost his lips over mine.
“I love when you call my name.”
Through half lidded eyes, I wrapped my arms around his shoulders and smashed my lips onto his. Sanji accepted this invitation, and kissed back with a hunger while pushing me into the wall while minding my lower back. He placed his hand over the scar where the surgery took place and stroked it gently with his fingers. I shivered under his touch, then pulled him towards me both bodies smashed together then Sanji gently ground his hips into mine.
“Mmm Sanji…”
“I’ll be gentle,” he muttered into my neck while stroking my upper thighs.
“Like you were last time?” I teased.
Suddenly, Sanji gripped onto my ass with his large hands making me gasp and my legs twitch slightly.
“Mon amour…don’t push me,” he growled like a predator. “I’m trying my best to hold back for your sake.”
Reaching down, I grabbed onto his hardened member making him gasp in pleasure. I continued to pleasure him making him breath heavily and moan out. Taking one of his hands he began to fondle my breast groping it then he dipped down to suck on the perked bud, then he nipped at it with his teeth.
“Ohh, Sanji!”
No longer being able to contain himself, Sanji pulled me on top of his lap making me straddle him. Blushing from embarrassment, I turned my head to the side; Sanji noticed my plight and tipped my chin back towards him.
“I will guide you,” he muttered before he pecked my lips.
I nodded at him then I wrapped my arms around his shoulders. Trying to make my legs work, I tried to push myself up, but was unable too. That’s when Sanji gripped onto my hips and lifted me up slightly, then released me back down onto his member. Both of us cried out as he slowly set me back into position sending a different wave of pleasure through me. The slow movements, made the pleasure more intimate between us.
Sanji kept his grip on my hips then started to thrust upwards deep into me. I clawed into his shoulders feeling the intense pleasure rise within me. Sanji couldn’t help himself as he increased his speed to drive himself deeper into me.
“Oh Sanji, more!!”
“Nnn, as you wish.”
Sanji delivered as his thrusts became more intense while he dug his fingers into my hips while sucking and biting on my neck. Our slick bodies slid against each other creating a heavy friction. I found myself slowly trying to rock my hips along with his which caused him to gasp out in ecstasy. His moans let me know that he enjoyed it, and that gave me motivation to push and increase my speed.
When we reached our high, my toes began to curl and the muscles in my legs joined in and I began to do small bounces and move up and down his shaft.
“Ahh! (Y/N), you’re legs!”
Lost in my own world of euphoria and pleasure, I felt my climax hit and I cried out to Sanji while he rode out my orgasm until he hit his.
Collapsing against his wet chest, the room seemed to become hotter mixing with the steam and hot air from the sex. I breathed heavily into Sanji’s neck which made him almost purr in pleasure.
“You…you moved your legs.”
“I think a little…”
I tried to push myself off of him trying to get my legs to work once more, but they refused to move. Holding onto the edge of the bath, I raised myself up with my arms, but Sanji held me in place and caressed my cheek while the other hand traced along my thigh.
“It’s alright,” he pecked my lips. “I know you made them move.”
“But…I feel like I didn’t give you—”
He silenced me by covering my lips with his own, then pushing his tongue into my mouth and intermingling it with mouth. Tangling my hands into his damp hair I kissed him back with the same ferocity showing him that I would do my best. My heart elevated when Sanji held me close to him and showing me his love through actions When we separated for air he pressed his forehead to mine.
“Don’t say anything of that sort,” he whispers. “You’re beautiful, and give me everything I want and need. I love you for you,” he slid his hands across both of my legs, “and I love your beautiful legs walking or not.”
“I love you Sanji,” I whispered.
“Je t’aime mon amour.”
We kissed once more, but more softly and intimate not out of lust and hunger. Sanji reached to pull the plug while keeping our lips intact and I felt the water drain leaving only our drenched bodies. When we separated, again, I tried to push myself with my legs but they only made it up a little before collapsing back to the tub floor.
“Hold on.”
Sanji helped to sit me on the tubs edge before he got out to gather some towels. He returned and wrapped me in a fluffy white towel, and lifted me in his arms bridal style to set me back into my chair. I was able to dry myself off while Sanji went to put on some loose slacks and a button up shirt. He returned to aid me in trying to get dressed but I pushed him away.
“Please Sanji, I can get myself dressed.”
He knelt to place both of his hands on my legs, then dipped down to place gentle kisses on both of them. His breath made me shiver in pleasure as he dotted on me.
“You were amazing, and you’re getting stronger,” he encouraged. “I look forward to more nights like this.”
A heavy blush came on my face.
“Sanji!”
“Don’t be embarrassed I mean what I say,” he smirked.
“Let me finish getting dressed so we can go to bed.”
“As you wish.”
I finished putting on some loose shorts and a tank top then started to roll out of the bath room and towards the deck with Sanji following behind me. He then grabbed onto the back of my chair then raced me over towards the mast.
“Hey what are you doing?!”
“I have watch tonight and I would love to have my lovely lady by my side,” he smiled.
His laughter and optimism was contagious. I went along and activated my chair boost to have me get up to the crow’s nest without Sanji’s help. When we were both up there, he had already made a place for us to lay on the couch. I cuddled up to Sanji and he wrapped his arms protectively around me and placing a kiss to my forehead. It wasn’t long before I started to drift off to sleep knowing that no matter what everything was going to be okay, and Sanji would be with me every step of the way.
