Used to be called The Dead Man Is Closer Than You Think. Now, it's He's Back…

Her body tossed and turned on the bed, her eyes shut tightly with sweat on her forehead. She moaned slightly, and turned again.
It could only be described as a nightmare. Pain surged through her body as memories flooded her mind.
Terrible, that's what it was.
She cried out again, only a little, but with a jolt, she sat up, breathing heavily as her body and mind recovered from the shocking scare.
Zoro…That's all she could think of.
Memories of him pained her at night, all the time. His death haunted her, bringing tears to her eyes every time.
Why did you have to go away…She remembered that night clearly.
He was killed.
By the one man he wanted to kill.
Hawkeye Mihawk.
He had beaten him, brutally, and he had won.
Almost.
Apparently, Mihawk hadn't been as dead as Zoro would have liked.
Zoro turned around, from helping her with her wounds, and there he was, pointing his sword at him.
"This is the end… it was a fine battle, Roronoa Zoro."
He didn't even get a chance to defend himself.
He was gone…
And it's all my fault.
She stood up shakily, wanting to wash herself in the hotel's bathroom. Silently, she made her way into the bathroom, and soon the tap was turned on, allowing her full access to the water.
That's when she heard it.
She was still washing her face, when the chuckling echoed in the bathroom. The voice kept laughing, and she didn't say anything, only moved back from the mirror that was on top of the sink.
Steam began flooding the room, clouding her sight, yet one spot on the mirror was kept clean.
And it was in the shape of a body.
A body that seemed familiar.
She wouldn't tell a soul, but before he died… before the battle, Zoro had left her with a kiss.
No, you didn't read wrong.
Just one, and then he left quickly.
Her arms around his neck, his arms wrapped around her waist, their bodies almost glued together. She remembered the feeling of his chest as her hands roamed them. The feeling of his lips on hers…
"Nami…"It couldn't be. She had to have been hallucinating.
"I've missed you."
No…
"I'm not lying."
She looked up at the mirror to see Roronoa Zoro, the man who had been haunting her dreams.
And now he was going to haunt her reality.

So, this is the reposted version.
The idea in this one is… well, some people know because I couldn't keep my mouth shut, but most of you don't know.
WARNING: Um, Zoro might be a little OOC. But eventually you'll see why.
Loves,
