Zoro frowned as Kuina began to sniff her surroundings. Reaching into his pocket and pulling out his phone, the man waited as his dog finished her business. With a grimace, Zoro knelt down and picked up any evidence that his dog had been here and threw the bag into the bin that was thankfully only a metre away. With a quick wiggle of the lead, Kuina set the pace and continued with Zoro slowly walking behind.

The green haired man must have been distracted, for never has Kuina been able to pull out of his grip. With the speed of a darting bullet the German Shepard made a mad dash across the road. Zoro swore as he chased after the damn dog. Cars beeped as he cut in front of them, not caring about the angry drivers. Turning the same corner that Kuina had just seconds ago, Zoro found himself colliding with another body. Being as muscular and sturdy as he was, Zoro's body didn't even falter as the blonde haired man in front of him fell backwards onto the ground. The large German Shepard licked at the blonde's face, and the man simply laughed and teasingly pushed the dog's face out of the way. Zoro grabbed at Kuina's leash to let the other man stand up.

"Sorry about that, 'dunno what got into her." Zoro mumbled awkwardly. This guy is kinda hot.

"That's alright." That other man replied as he stood up and patted himself down.

Zoro watched on as the man bent over slightly, smiling as he began to rub at Kuina's head.

"-name?"

Shit, Zoro wasn't listening to a word this guy just said. Why is he shirtless?

"Oh uh it's Kuina"

The man stood up straight now, fixing his track pants and wiping at a bit of sweat off of his cheek with a small towel that hung over his shoulder.

"Your name, idiot!"

Surprised at the insult spoken with such a happy expression, Zoro replied with a grin.

"Roronoa Zoro, and you?"

The other mans smile faltered at that.

"It's Sanji, just Sanji..." The man replied as he shook hands with Zoro.

With a suspicious look, Sanji continued shaking Zoro's hand mindlessly as he spoke.

"Hey, are you that Roronoa Zoro? The cop who was on the news a few weeks ago?"

Zoro rolled his eyes and remembered the events that had changed his life. It was a simple house fire, or so the Fire Department at the scene had thought. Turns out there was a kid hiding in the closet upstairs and Zoro did the natural thing by going into the crumbling house and saving the little girl. Next thing he knows his face is being bombarded with microphones and cameras, suddenly labelled as a 'hero'.

Letting go of the man's hand, Zoro turned his head to the side and growled.

"Yeah that's me. Look, I don't do photos or autographs so don't bother asking."

With a scoff, Sanji brushed back the sweat drenched hair from his face and replied, "Pretty full of yourself aren't you?"

Kuina gave a loud bark and jumped up, pushing her paws against Sanji's bare chest. Still standing, the man laughed and ruffled with the dogs ears.

"No I'm not it's just -" Zoro started.

"You don't like the fame?" Sanji finished for him.

With a tug of Kuina's lead, the German Shepard returned to all four paws.

"What I did was just my natural instinct. I hate being recognised as a 'hero' for doing something any normal human should do."

Sanji smiled at the green haired man before patting around his pockets, pulling out a small black wallet.

"I'm on a bit of a tight schedule at the moment, this is the only free time I get to go for a run - but I'd like to talk to you again one day if that's alright?"

Zoro's eyes nearly bugged out of his face. Is he seriously asking me out?!

"I'll give you my card so you can call me."

Zoro took the card and looked at it from all angles.

"You're a beautician?"

With a smirk, Sanji put his wallet away and fixed his earphones back into his ears.

"My full name is Sanji Baratie, you should try googling me. Hopefully next time we meet I can fix your hair, your roots are starting to show."

The green haired man touched his hair in offense.

"Oh and sorry but, I don't do photos or autographs, so don't bother asking!" Sanji laughed out as he began to jog past Zoro.

Watching the man run further away from him, Zoro whipped out his phone and opened his google app. 'Sanji Baratie' he typed into the search bar.

Zoro smacked his forehead in disbelief as his eyes darted through all the results. He'd just knocked over someone legitimatly famous. His dog had just jumped up onto a Hollywood beautician. He'd just embarrassed himself in front of a guy who was way out of his league.

With a dejected sigh, Zoro whistled to Kuina and ushered her to continue along the path. He needed to get home as soon as possible. Zoro had an appointment to book.

Yes. I made Kuina a dog...

So this is just another short story I wrote while I was bored. I'm thinking I might continue this one too. For those who follow my 'Snug' story - I'm really sorry! I am working on it right now but I like to write other stories while I write it. If that makes sense...plus my laptop broke and I'm getting it repaired this week.

In case you're wondering why I gave them these occupations, Oda once mentioned that in a 'modern' universe, Zoro would be a Police Officer and Sanji would be a beautician. It's something different that I wanted to try out.

Anyway, please tell me what you think of this one! :)
