She stood at the bow of the ship, leaning against the railing as the sun glinted off her hair. He knew she knew he was watching her, that coy smile she let grace her face shortly after his attention landed on her gave away the game. He didn't move from his spot against the mast, nor did she acknowledge the gaze cast upon any further.
He cursed inwardly, this whole situation was her fault. The first time, it should have been a one off but then she kept coming to him, keeping it secret from the others as their liaisons continued. He didn't want their meetings to stop, no, what he wanted stopped were her games. Outside of their trysts she was as cruel and callous as always, like nothing was between them at all. Hell, she even allowed others to flirt with her, giving him a calculating look each time.
He remembered the first time, it was etched into his mind for all eternity. They had been in a town on another new island and the crew had split up to do their own things that night. The pair of them had ended up at a bar, she off to entertain herself and he to drink. As he was leaning against the bar another woman had approached him, trying her best to woo him off to a room. That devious woman of his stormed her way over to declare he was hers in no uncertain terms, pulling him into a long heated kiss. The floozy left for some other mark, but the two never noticed, much more interested in continuing upstairs.
Now her actions towards him, his at night but gone in day, had him confused. He knew she wanted him, they met too often for another to receive her attentions. So why did she refuse to declare them to be anything. Did she have no feelings for him? Was he just there to satisfy her needs? The whole situation was driving him crazy and damned if he could quit her. He couldn't leave her now, he was hooked and wanted something more substantial. He just had to force her to admit she wanted him for more than sex.
Another victory against some jumped up enemy, another excuse to party. With all the townspeople joining in, it wasn't hard for her to grab him and drag him out of sight of their crewmates to a dark corner. She claimed he was mesmerizing to her as he roughly pushed into her, his frustrations over their situation pushing him on. As soon as they were finished and put back together she left him alone, going back into the crowd and ignoring him when he rejoined the crew. To make it worse, she was casting those damned inviting eyes, the look that promised more, upon his rival. Unable to let this stand, he picked a fight with the other man, distracting him from his woman.
Later, when they were alone on the ship, he grabbed her and pulled her hard against his body, eliciting a gasp from her. He cast a dark look upon her as he proceeded to drag her off so they wouldn't be disturbed.
"What am I to you? Am I just a piece of flesh for you to toy with? I know you want me, do you need me? Cause if not, we are done," he growled, hoping she would say she needed him. He intended to make her his for all to know.
However she remained quiet, a stricken look on her face. He waited for her to say anything but the silence dragged on. Letting out a disgusted snort, at who he couldn't tell, he dropped her arm and stalked off, his body stiff with anger. She just stood there watching him, an unsure look on her face.
The following weeks were fraught with an angry tension between the two, held mostly by him. The others on board were confused by the change in the dynamic, having no idea what brought it about. Any attempts they made to make sense of it were brought up short. It wasn't till a major battle with another pirate crew, where he was struck pretty bad protecting her, that things came to light. He defeated the other crew, bleeding heavily from multiple wounds while she stood with him, doing her best to help.
Once the fight was done, he collapsed and her distraught scream brought Chopper running over, where the young doctor promptly took him to the medbay. She followed and couldn't be persuaded nor forced from his side. It was late at night when they were finally left alone, Chopper giving the all clear.
"Dammit Zoro, I do need you. Happy now?" She cursed as she laid her head against his chest, listening to the comforting sound of his heart.
"Not quite witch, but I'll take it," he muttered, startling her from her reverie.
"Baka, nearly get yourself killed for nothing," she growled as she wiped away the tears forming in her eyes.
"Nami, you are not nothing. You drive me crazy and now that I have you I'm never letting you go. You're mine."
I own nothing. This came to me after listening to Super Psycho Love by Simon Curtis. Very highly recommend his music.
Something lately drives me crazy
Has to do with how you make me
Struggle to get your attention
Calling you brings aprehension
Texts from you and sex from you
Are things that are not so uncommon
Flirt with you you're all about it
Tell me why I feel unwanted?
Damn, if you didn't want me back
Why'd you have to act like that?
It's confusing to the core
'Cause I know you want it
Oh, and if you don't wanna be
Something substantial with me
Then why do you give me more?
Babe I know you want it
Say that you want me every day
That you want me every way
That you need me
Got me trippin' super psycho love
Aim, pull the trigger
Feel the pain getting bigger
Go insane from the bitter feeling
Trippin' super psycho love
Pull me off to darkened corners
Where all other eyes avoid us
Tell me how I mesmerize you
I love you and despise you
Back to the crowd where you ignore me
Bedroom eyes to those before me
How am I supposed to handle
Lit the fuse and missed the candle
Damn, if you wanna let me go
Baby please just let me know
You're not gonna get away with leading me on
Say that you want me every day
That you want me every way
That you need me
Got me trippin' super psycho love
Aim, pull the trigger
Feel the pain getting bigger
Go insane from the bitter feeling
Trippin' super psycho love
Say you want me
Say you need me
Tear my heart out slow
And bleed me
You want me
You need me
You're gonna be with me
I know you want me too
I think you want me too
Please say you want me too
Because you're going to
Say that you want me every day
That you want me every way
That you need me
Got me trippin' super psycho love
Aim, pull the trigger
Feel the pain getting bigger
Go insane from the bitter feeling
Trippin' super psycho love
