* YAWN *

Zoro had just woken up from his afternoon nap. He rubbed his eyes wondering how long
he had slept this time. For all he knew it could’ve been six o’clock. Zoro got up off the deck, looked around and started to stretch. The young but very strong captain Monkey D. Luffy was sitting on top of the mast staring at the endless ocean, the ships sniper (Usopp) was telling one of his little make believe stories again to the blue nosed reindeer Tony Tony Chopper. And Chopper as usual, believed every single word of it. Nico Robin was sitting peacefully on one of those foldable chairs reading a book while Nami was watering her tangerines. Surprisingly Sanji wasn’t there to help her with the job.

“Where is that shitty love cook anyway?” Zoro mumbled rubbing his head.
“What are you talking about Zoro?” The santoryou user turned around to find his captains face upside down in front of his.
“Well Zoro?” asked the very confused captain.
“Huh!? Oh … nothing Luffy”, Zoro replied.
“Oh, alright then,” said the very cheerful captain and turned around to look at the blue sea again. Zoro walked down the deck wondering what Usopp had said to Chopper that had gotten him all wide eyed. On second thought, he didn‘t want to know. Zoro came to the door and put his hand on the door knob and was starting to turn it …..
“Zoro! Zoro!” The greened haired pirate let out a sigh …
“What is it Chopper,”
“You have to listen to Usopp’s adventurous tales! It’s incredible!”
“What, you mean one of his stupid lies”
The ship’s doctor let out a gasp. “How can you say that Zoro when you know it’s true?” “What did Usopp say now? That he fought ten foot shark?” said the swords man.
“Of course not!” said the sniper arms crossed with a confident look on his face.
“That would be silly! I fought a humongous shrimp that was attacking my town with its title waves of doom!”

“Oh and beating up an overgrown shrimp isn’t silly,” said the unamazed pirate.
“Are you mocking the Great Captain Usopp warrior of the sea?”
“You’re darn right I am!”
“I challenge you then Mr. I is gonna be the best swordsman ever!”(Uh yeah …)
“That’s it! Bring it on Pinocchio!” Both warriors got their weapons ready glaring at each other with poor little Chopper in the middle. At this point the reindeer was very frightened. He never really liked fights and he didn’t want to fix up broken bones and bloody noses or worse! Picking up the dead person’s body.
Zoro was really pissed off and was just about to unsheathe his swords and slice the little liar in two …
“Stop it you guys! This is pointless! There’s no need to fight!” said the frightened reindeer.
“Heh, lucky for you Usopp. I was just about to chop you up into bits,” said Zoro.
“Yeah right! I would’ve already shot you by then!” said Usopp.
“You sure about that”
“Hmph! Come on Chopper! Let’s go tell somebody else who is actually worthy of my tales!
“ … A- alright” said Chopper who was relieved that there wasn’t anything broken or dead.
Usopp and Chopper went to go tell Luffy the story. Luffy seemed very interested and started saying “Really! No way! Cool!” Zoro went inside the ship to do a some more training.


***SHIT!!!***
Zoro looked up all sweaty from his training. Was he hearing things or did Sanji just scream? “Oh well, I need to train more if I want to get better” thought Zoro.
******
“What’s that shitty love cook up to now?” said Zoro after hearing a couple more cries of pain. All that shouting was making him lose his concentration. Zoro was surprised that no one had heard the loud screams and come to the cook‘s aid. Well since he was the only person who had heard Sanji and he couldn’t concentrate with all those noises he might as well see what was going on. Zoro got a rag and wiped the sweat off of his face. He sheathed the three swords while putting them at his side and tied his black bandanna to his left arm. He began to walk down the hallway and found himself in front of the kitchen. The swordsman kicked the kitchen door open to find the cook at the sink. He stepped closer to the cook. Zoro’s eyes grew wide in shock. It was red.

“What are you looking at!” shouted the cook to the intruder.
“S…Sanji, what happened?!” asked Zoro as he noticed the cook’s bloody hands.
“What do you think happened! I cut myself asshole!”
Zoro was surprised. I mean sure Sanji was a good cook but to get his hand cut. He thought Sanji was more professional than that. It almost pained him to see Sanji’s hands all bloody like that.
“Are you alrigh …”
“No! Of course I’m not alright! Can’t you see I’m bleeding over here! Jeez!”
Zoro was fed up with Sanji yelling at him. All he was trying to do was see if he was ok but the crap cook just had to shout at him. Zoro was just about to shout back when Sanji yelled out a cry of pain.
“God that stings!” shouted the cook.
“Here let me take a look” said the ever so concerned Zoro. He took Sanji’s injured hand even though the cook was struggling to not let him get a hold of it.

“Let go! Let go of me!” shouted the stubborn cook. Zoro paid no attention to what the love cook was saying. He kept a tight grip on Sanji’s wrist as he started to observe the deep wound. His hands weren’t bleeding as much but the cut was still fresh. It was all pink with a slight tinge of red. Sanji’s skin wasn’t as tan as his was. In fact it was the peachiest palest color he had ever seen. He couldn’t take his eyes off it almost as if he was mesmerized.

“Dammit Zoro! I said let go!” The swordsman immediately let go and stared at the cook.
“How’d it happen?” asked the curious swordsman.
“Why are you being so nice all of a sudden? It’s creeping me out!”
“Hey, can’t a guy be nice for once?” answered Zoro.
“Well? How did it happen?” the swordsman asked again.
“I … was slicing some fish and I don’t know, I was distracted and I accidentally cut myself”.
“Ouch!” said Zoro.
“You know, making those noises isn’t helping,” said the cook.
“Well soorrryyyy!” said the swordsman. He was surprised to see the love cook smirking at him. For some strange reason it made his stomach feel funny.
“Hey Zoro.”
“Yeah”
“Why did you come here anyways?”
“Wha?”
“I mean why you had, ya’know come here in the first place?”
“Well you wouldn’t shut the hell up and I couldn’t concentrate so … yeah”
“Oh…”

The silence made the swordsman feel a bit awkward and the fact that he was in the same room with the love cook didn‘t help the matter either.
“Whoops! I gotta finish making dinner or my precious Nami swan will be hungry!”
“What’s for dinner love cook?” asked Zoro. Before the swordsman knew it the cook had shoved a fork with some kind of food into his mouth.
“That’s what’s for dinner swordsman” said Sanji.
“What the hell was that for!” shouted Zoro as he started chewing. The food was salty but very tasty. He had never eaten anything that delicious before.
“Well you asked what was for dinner”
“What is that?” asked Zoro still chewing.
“It’s salmon dork. Haven’t you ever eaten salmon before?” replied the cook.
“Well actually, no.”
Sanji looked a bit surprised. Never in his entire life had he ever met anyone who never eaten salmon before.
“Are you serious!” shouted the cook who was trying not to laugh.
“Dead serious” said the swordsman who still chewing the salmon. He didn’t want to swallow something that tasted so good.
“Well what do you think?” asked the love cook.

“Huh?”
“How does it taste my god! Do I have to explain every single thing to you!” yelled the cook. Zoro chewed a couple more times and looked at Sanji. It was awkward to see the chef so wide eyed. Never in his life had he seen Sanji look so … well you know excited before (well except for when he would talk about the All Blue but that was different). Seeing Sanji look that way made him feel He gave the eager chef thumbs up. Sanji’s concerned face turned all happy and cheerful which surprised Zoro as he gulped down the salmon. The love cook looked really cute to him! Zoro’s face began to turn all red and hot. He couldn’t take his eyes off of the love cooks face! Sanji had noticed that Zoro was turning bright red. He set his hand on the swordsman’s forehead to check his temperature.
“Zoro, your face feels hot; maybe you should go see Chopp-”
“No, I’m fine” said Zoro as pushed aside Sanji’s hand and turned around to walk out of the kitchen. He could still see the love cook at the corner of his eye. He noticed that Sanji seemed a bit frustrated. He was trying to say something but when he opened his mouth nothing came out and he would close it again. Zoro set his had on the knob …

“Hey Zoro” said the frustrated cook.
“What?”
“Umm … Thanks”
“For what?”
“Just thanks”
Zoro had to admit he was a bit confused. All he did was just look at a hand injury nothing more.
“Your … welcome?” said Zoro trying to hide his smile as he left the love cook and the kitchen. Zoro ran into the restroom. He needed some way to cool off. All that heat was making him sweat like heck! When he reached the restroom he immediately shut the door and turned on the faucet. He let the ice cold water run through his fingers. He splashed some water onto his face. It did make him feel a bit cooler. He splashed water onto his face a couple more times. As he closed his eyes he kept on seeing the love cook’s face in his mind, Zoro began to blush.

“ARGHH! Why do I keep on seeing that shitty love cook in my mind!” shouted the frustrated pirate. All of those images of Sanji made him blush even more. He wasn’t that cute! I mean what’s so great about some blonde curly eye browed freak anyway?! Just because he has blonde hair and some facial hair and …and a very sexy face and body ….. Who was he trying to kid anyway? Sanji was hot!
“It’s not like I’m in lo…” Zoro covered his mouth before he could finish what he was about to say.
“Could it be that I’m in love with … Sanji!”
