You both stood there in the middle off the dark hallway, The only light coming from a small lit candle. Both eyes locked on to each other, no words being spoken. You just confessed your love to him and neither has said a word since. You could've sworn your heart was gonna beat out of your chest. What was going through his head right now, you didn't know. His gaze was torture as you stared back hoping for some sort of response. It was true that you were completely different from him. He loved to fight while you wished for everything but. He was very quiet while you were as talkative as Luffy.

You knew nobody could've guessed that you would fall in love with the green haired swordsman. It wasn't intentional but opposites attract right?

You loved him with your entire being and would give up life itself for him, but what did he feel?

What was he thinking?

Feeling?

Wanting?

Why wouldn't he speak?

Why was he just staring at you?

What was in those dark, piercing eyes of his?

Anger was boiling in your chest as all of your thoughts were unanswered. You never got angry, but at this moment you felt like you could punch him in the face. You dug your nails into the soft flesh of your palm as you clenched them into fists. Didn't he know that this never ending silence was killing you? You couldn't even look at him anymore. You bowed your head as you were losing all your composure as you felt yourself losing all control as you shook from head to toe.

"Dammit Zoro! Why will you not do anything but stare? Why wont you speak to me?" You cryed out as your hands now started to bleed.

"Uh-uh Sorry I-" He started and stopped as your heart sank and tears began to fall to the hard wooden floor.

"Why don't you just say it? I'm a big girl you know, I don't need you to sugar coat it!" You yelled out again, no longer to hold your emotions. You were falling apart like you had never done before.

"C-can't you just wait a damn minute! I need a minute to think,"

"What is there to think about? I poured out my whole heart to you and all you could do was stand there looking at me like a damned fool!"

"That's the point! You think I'd expected this? I don't know how I feel, I have never been through anything like this before!"

"How can you not know how you feel? It's in your heart. I feel it with my entire being, Everytime I see you my heart skips a beat. When you touch me I feel like I'm gonna explode! How can you tell me-" He inturrupted you as he brung your face up to look at his, Your chin inbetween his thumb and his index finger. As he looked into your eyes it felt like he was peering through your soul. He brung his face closer as his lips embraced yours in a tender kiss. You could've sworn your heart stopped right there. He pulled away to bring his gaze back in contact with yours.

"I... There is something there. I just needed an answer as to what it was, and I think I just got it,"he said giving you a warm smile, then pulling you back into a loving, passionate kiss.

'Damn that swordsmen'
