Sabo´s Thoughts

When Sabo first heard about Robin he was 12. He had sneaked in to Dragon´s office without permission because he wanted to take part in to the newest important mission, but Dragon wouldn´t allow that, saying it was too dangerous. And that´s why Sabo had sneaked in to Dragon´s office, wanting to find information about the mission. He walked over to Dragon´s table, going through his papers, smirking as he found a wanted poster.

"Bingo!" he thought "Now let´s see…"

His eyes widened when he looked at the poster, this was not what he had been looking for.

"Did you find anything interesting?" Sabo jumped at the voice and looked at the door, only to see smirking Dragon who was walking towards him.

"Hi boss" Sabo said with a nervous smile, trying to hide the wanted poster in his hand behind his back.

"And what do you have there?" Dragon asked, snatching the poster from him. Of course he noticed. He looked at the poster, raising an eyebrow "So you found this, huh?"

"Who is she, boss?" Sabo couldn´t help but ask.

"Nico Robin, her bounty is 79 million beri" Dragon answered simply, causing a tick mark appears on Sabo´s forehead.

"I know that; I can read" the blonde said, snatching the poster back "What I meant is why does she have a bounty like that? She doesn´t look older than ten!"

"She was eight when the bounty was placed on her head" Dragon said, much to Sabo´s shock "And that happened twelve years ago"

"Why?" Sabo couldn´t help but ask. What could such a small child have done to earn the anger of the government like that?

"Are you sure you want to know?" Dragon asked. Before Sabo could answer he added: "Even talking about these things is illegal; if you learn about it there´s no turning back"

"But I already am an outlaw" Sabo said with a roll of his eyes, but stopped when he saw Dragon´s serious face "Yeah, I´m sure"

They stared at each other before Dragon turned around and told Sabo to follow him. The kid was strong, he had already seen hell, and he could handle this.

They went to the cellar where the records were kept, Sabo knew that. He had been there before investigating the files together with the other younger ones and Dragon didn´t seem like he had minded. Did he seriously keep so important documents in this same place? Sabo raised an eyebrow as they reached the end of the long hallway. What now?

"Stand back" Dragon said. When Sabo did so the older man took a hold of the bookshelf in the end of the hallway. He pushed it aside, revealing an old wooden door. Sabo felt like an idiot; that was an old trick, he should´ve known!

Dragon took out a key and unlocked the door, going inside with Sabo. The room was just like the first part of the cellar, but much bigger.

"Most of the files hold dangerous and important information; it´s best to keep them locked away" Dragon explained the obvious. He took out some files and books and then went to sit at the table a little further away. Sabo sat down too, and so Dragon told him about the things he knew about the Void Century. Sabo listened carefully; the information was new but not so surprising. He knew the World Government was rotten. Then Dragon told about the poneglyphs and soon after Ohara. He had kept some information about the Void Century to himself, mainly about the weapons, but he told everything he knew about Ohara. He told about the great library, known as the Tree of Knowledge, about the archeologists, the traitorous Vice Admiral and finally, about Nico Robin. He told about her devil fruit and her ability to read the ancient language, and of course the fact that now they had gotten a lead of where she could be.

"Why do you want to find her?" Sabo asked finally.

"Because she´s a threat to the World Government" Dragon said "And what´s threat to the Government-"

"Is useful for us" Sabo finished, making Dragon nod.

"Exactly" he said "And she is the only survivor of Ohara, the island that fought against the world. That alone would be enough reason for us to look for her"

Sabo nodded, understanding the situation. He looked at the wanted poster in his hands. The girl looked completely normal, but her eyes were creepy; they seemed so cold and uncaring.

"Let´s go" Dragon said. Sabo nodded, putting the wanted poster in his pocket, not knowing that the next time he´d hear about her would also bring him some news about his little brother.

XXXXX

"Sabo! Sabo! Sabo Sabo Sa-"

"I heard you already" Sabo said, whacking the small redhead, Nora, on the head with his book "Now what is it?"

"Boss wants you in to his office, now" Nora said, rubbing her head.

"Any idea what he wants?" Sabo asked, making Nora shrug "He said something about wanted posters"

Sabo nodded, chancing his direction for Dragon´s office. He knocked, getting inside as he got the permission to do so.

"You wanted to see me?" the blond said, making the older man say: "Not really; I just needed to give you these" he said, throwing a collection of papers to Sabo, who caught them with a raised eyebrow. He looked at the one on the top, smile coming to his lips.

"Three hundred million, eh?" he muttered more to himself than to Dragon, lifting his little brother´s wanted poster up.

"There´s seven posters more; that´s his crew" Dragon told with a smirk that made Sabo suspicious "Tell me, Sabo, is there any familiar faces?"

Sabo raised an eyebrow, looking at the next poster. Roronoa Zoro, his bounty had doubled from the last time. Then there was "Black Leg" Sanji. He chuckled at the drawn poster. "King of the Snipers" Sogeking, "Cat Thief" Nami and-

"Hm?" he muttered, reading the name again. Was this really…?

"Nico Robin, 80 million beri" he read out aloud, causing Dragon to smirk.

"So you do remember" the older man said. Sabo nodded; he still had her old wanted poster in his collection. He eyed the new picture. If he remembered right the woman was close to her thirties, but she sure didn´t look like it. Her eyes caught his attention as well; they didn´t seem so cold and uncaring as before, just… mysterious.

"Did you fall asleep?" Dragon asked when Sabo had been quiet for a while.

"No" he said, slowly shaking his head. Two last posters were "Cyborg" Franky and "Cotton Candy Lover" Chopper. Sabo chuckled again, Luffy had always tried to drag little fuzzy animals to home, but Dadan wouldn´t allow that. Now he finally had his own little pet.

"You can keep the posters; we have enough copies of them" Dragon said, knowing that the blond collected wanted posters.

"Thanks" Sabo said "Was there anything else?"

Dragon tossed him a news paper and said: "It´s about their latest actions; read it. You´re free to go"

Sabo nodded, leaving Dragon´s office. The times were getting interesting…

XXXXX

Sabo was annoyed. He hadn´t spoke to Dragon in a month, since the day he learned about Ace´s execution but was told not to go. Needles to say he had been, and still was, upset, but had done as Dragon told. And now that old, tattooed bastard wanted him in to his office. But he was also a bit curious about this. What was so important that Dragon needed him of all the people, especially when he had said that Sabo could recover as long as he wanted? Besides, it was already pretty late. Finally realizing it really was something important Sabo pushed his anger aside; deciding to take this seriously. He knocked on to Dragon´s door and when he got the permission to go in he did just that. What he saw wasn´t what he had been expecting.

In front of him was sitting a beautiful young woman, who had turned to look in to his direction when the door opened. What caught his attention the most were her ocean blue eyes; he had never seen something so beautiful…

A cough from Dragon brought Sabo back to reality, making him realize he had been staring. He averted his eyes away quickly, saying: "You wanted to see me boss?"

"Yes" Dragon said, motioning for Sabo to come closer "Show Robin-san where the kitchen, library and training grounds are. After that take her to a quest room" Dragon finished, handing him a key. Sabo nodded and was about to walk away, but froze suddenly. That´s why she looked so familiar; she was Nico Robin from Luffy´s crew!

"Something wrong?" Dagon asked with an almost unnoticeable smirk; he had wondered when Sabo would realize exactly who she was. A vein popped on Sabo´s head. That bastard.

"No, nothing" he said and continued to walk "Let´s go"

They walked in silence, neither of them saying a word. Sabo was too embarrassed because of the staring incident and he also had no idea why Nico Robin even was here. Shouldn´t she be taking care of her captain?

"Okay, that sounded a bit wrong" Sabo thought with a shudder.

"Revolutionary-san?" Robin asks suddenly, making Sabo´s eyebrow twitch with annoyance. What the hell was up with the nickname?

"What is it, Robin-san?" Sabo asked as he turned to face her, hoping that she didn´t mind the way he called her.

"I´m not meaning to be rude-"the pirate started with a smile that in Sabo´s opinion was a mocking one "But I think we already passed the kitchen without you saying a word. I believe you were supposed to show me around?"

Sabo´s face went red and he could swear the woman´s smile was turning in to a teasing smirk. He looked around himself, realizing that she was right.

"Yeah, you´re right" Sabo said "It´s easy to get lost in this place"

"Is it now?" Robin asked, but Sabo decided to ignore it. He motioned her to follow and they continued the tour. This time Sabo made sure not to pace out. He showed Robin around like he had been told to do, not bothering to say any unneeded words.

"Dragon will probably sent someone to get you for the breakfast in the morning" Sabo said as he unlocked the quest room´s door, still avoiding looking at her.

"Thank you, Revolutionary-san" Robin thanked, taking the key.

"I have a name you know" Sabo said, annoyed by the nickname.

"A name that you never bothered to tell me" Robin said back, causing Sabo to look at her. She had that same teasing smirk on her face again. Sabo´s face went, once again, red. Dragon hadn´t told her? That asshole, he could have said so!

"My name´s Sabo" he said and quickly added "And you better use it"

"Of course" Robin said "Good night, Sabo-san"

"Yeah, night" Sabo replied, leaving as Robin closed the door behind her.

XXXXX

It was a week later that Sabo saw her the next time, and it was in the library. She had her back turned to him as she was looking for something from the bookshelf. Without really meaning to his eyes ran across her body, seeing the high heeled black boots and short, tight leather dress that was also black. When she turned her head Sabo looked elsewhere immediately.

"Good afternoon, Sabo-san" she said.

"Yeah, same to you" Sabo said, avoiding her eyes "Are you looking for something?"

"No, I´m just looking around" Robin said.

"Well I´ll see you later then" Sabo said, quickly leaving. He would have wanted to ask about Luffy, to hear something about him, but he couldn´t. He couldn´t take the risk that he´d slip something. And naturally telling her wasn´t an option either; he didn´t want her to blame him and he wanted to be the one to tell Luffy… when he was ready.

XXXXX

Sabo had decided that he´d avoid the creepy archeologist as much as possible, and he had a feeling that Dragon knew that. Why, you ask? Well the fact that Dragon put him to oversee Robin´s training could not be a coincidence.

"That damn asshole just loves to annoy me" Sabo thought with a sigh. He was pulled out of his thoughts when someone tapped his hand.

"Huh?" he said, turning to look who it was, only to see a hand growing from the ground "What the-!"

He fell over in shock. He was about to take his pole out but stopped when he heard laughter. He blinked, taking a look to his left. Oh yeah, Robin was there… and that was the power of the hana hana no mi! …damn it.

"Okay, ha ha, now cut it out!" Sabo said irritated "What was that for anyway?"

"If I remember right you were supposed to oversee my training"

"Yeah, and?"

"You were pacing out" Robin finished crossing her arms. Sabo rolled his eyes, saying: "I was bored"

Robin raised an eyebrow, saying: "So this is the level of the great revolution army?"

Sabo´s eyes narrowed and he shot a glare to Robin.

"Care to repeat that?"

"I said "So this is the level of the great revolution ar-"" before Robin could finish Sabo ran to her, tackling her and pinning her to the ground.

"You can mock me all you want but do not ever, never make fun of that fool´s army" he hissed in to her ear, tightening his grip around her wrists "Is this clear?"

They stared at each other in the eyes for a while before Robin averted her eyes, saying: "Of course"

"Good" Sabo said, getting off of her "Now get up; I don´t want to miss the dinner"

XXXXX

Sabo, who was reading in the library, sighed. Robin´s training session hadn´t really gone that well; he had gone too far.

"Hey, Sabo!" Sabo turned his head to see another blonde, Clark, walking towards him. He, along with his brother and sister, were one of those who survived the fire in Grey Terminal ten years ago.

"Yeah?" Sabo asked, surprised to see the older blond. Clark never came to the library. Clark didn´t reply, just walked over to Sabo and punched him in the face so hard he fell off of his chair.

"What the hell Clark!" He yelled, holding his nose.

"Don´t play dumb!" The older blond hissed "What the hell did you do to Robin-san!"

"Huh?"

"I saw her wrists; what the hell did you do?" Clark yelled, clenching his fists. Now Sabot got it.

"Oh, that?" he said "She should be more careful with what she says"

"What the hell´s that supposed to mean!" Clark yelled, but shut up immediately when he noticed Sabo´s dark look.

"…Did she make fun of Dragon-san?" Clark asked, knowing that that was one of the things that made Sabo´s blood boil.

"Something like that, yeah" Sabo told "But I overreacted a bit"

"A bit?"

"Okay, a lot" Sabo admitted, sighing "I should probably apologize"

"You sure should" Clark agreed "What if Lu-"

Before Clark could continue Sabo dashed at him, covering his mouth.

"Hus!" he hissed "Walls can have ears"

"Sorry" Clark said, removing Sabo´s hand "But you do know what I was going to say, don´t you?"

"Yeah" he said "I´ll apologize from her when I find her"

XXXXX

Sabo didn´t find Robin until the next day in their training session.

"Robin-san?" he said, getting her attention "Sorry about yesterday; I went too far"

"I apologize too; I shouldn´t have said it" Robin said, much to Sabo´s surprise "How about we forget it ever happened?"

"Deal"

XXXXX

A year had gone past since Sabo met Robin for the first time, and they had become pretty close with each other, at least in Sabo´s opinion. According to Dragon it was because they were so similar with each other, which now sixteen years old Nora had translated as bookworms. Clark had said that both of them are obsessed with Luffy, which had naturally earned him a black eye from Sabo. And of course Robin hadn´t had been there when this happened. They spent a lot of time together; they trained together, ate together, read together, he even helped Robin in her research. Clark had once joked that the only thing missing was that they didn´t sleep together. That had earned him another black eye and a slap on the face.

"Sabo-kun?" Sabo was pulled out of his thoughts by Robin´s voice. They were sitting in the library again, reading some old reports about the islands in the New World.

"Yeah?" Sabo asked.

"Have you ever been in the New World?"

Sabo stopped reading, looking up from the book. Robin was looking at him across the table, her head leaning against her arm.

"No, I haven´t" Sabo replied, wondering why Robin was asking it in the first place "Why do you ask?"

"I just wanted to know if you´d know any place my adventure loving captain would want to go" Robin replied with a smile.

"Nope, sorry" Sabo said "You should ask teacher; she´s been in the New World often"

"Madam Leslie?"

"Yeah; she did a deal with White Beard about eight years ago and helped him to get the medication he needed" Sabo explained "And of course she did jobs for boss too"

"Did you ever meet him?"

"Who?"

"White Beard" Robin answered with a laugh.

"Yeah, once" Sabo said, leaning back in his chair "Seven years ago in Sabaody Archipelago. That´s as far as I´ve gone; teacher said that the Fishman Island would be too dangerous"

"Why is that?" Robin asked, but Sabo just shrugged.

"No idea" that was a lie; he had a pretty good guess. He had seen how people in Sabaody thought about fishmen, so he thought that Leslie was afraid to show him how fishmen thought about humans. Of course he knew some fishmen personally, like Namur of the White Beard Pirates and some of their allies, but that was completely different. And it could simply just be that the trip in to the Fishman Island was just too dangerous; the place was 10 000 meters underwater after all.

"Have you met any of the division commanders?" Robin asked.

"Most of them" Sabo replied, shuddering at the memory of the short female commander. Damn hyperactive woman.

"What about "Fire Fist" Ace? Did you ever meet him?" Robin asked. Sabo tensed, knowing that he´d have to be careful now.

"Yeah" he admitted "But that was before he joined the White Beard Pirates"

He quickly stood up to avoid more questions, saying: "I´ll see you at dinner, then?"

"Of course" Robin said. Sabo nodded, leaving before she could say anything more.

XXXXX

Sabo didn´t know when it had actually started, but he had started to have feelings for Robin. Of course he had always thought the woman was attractive, who wouldn't with that body, but he hadn´t thought that his feelings were deeper than that. The fact that annoyed him the most was that he only realized this when things hadn´t gone as planned. He hadn´t seen Robin in the breakfast, but had thought nothing of it since she passed the breakfast from time to time anyway, despite the fact that he kept telling her it´s not healthy. But when she hadn´t come to their training session he had started to get worried. So now he was here, walking in the hallways looking for Robin. He had already checked her room and the library, sometimes she forgot to look at the clock and got her nose stuck in a book, but she hadn´t been in neither of those. Sabo gritted his teeth as he suddenly felt sharp pain in the back of his head.

"What the hell!" he hissed, turning around and coming face to face with the head doctor Leslie.

"Watch your mouth" the woman hissed back, strapping her huge blue sword, which she had used to whack Sabo, back to her back. She was tall, middle-aged woman with long blonde hair and bright blue eyes who never wore anything else than blue, excluding the white doctor´s coat sometimes seen on her.

"Sorry" Sabo said "Now what is it?"

"I´m very disappointed in you young man" Leslies said, crossing her arms "You´re a doctor too; you should have noticed!"

"Noticed what?" Sabo asked, irritated.

"Robin has a high fever, you idiot!" Leslie barked, whacking her student on the head with a bare hand. Sabo blinked, suddenly feeling like an idiot. She had been acting weirdly for a couple of days; he should have noticed! But why hadn´t she said anything?

"Where is she?" Sabo asked, deciding to go visit her.

"In the hospital wing, idiot" Leslie said, walking away.

XXXXX

When Sabo finally found Robin from the medical wing she was in her bed, sleeping. He pulled out a chair, dragging it next to her bed and sitting on it. He looked at Robin; she looked so peaceful. Well, she always did, but this was different. When she was awake she always seemed more or less tense, but not now. Now she really was in peace. Looking at her like this as she slept made him realize that while he knew so much about her in theory, he had never heard anything about her from herself. He didn´t know anything personal about her, like her favorite book, drink or food, not even her favorite color. She didn´t know anything about him either, but still…

Sabo sighed, resting his head on his hand. He couldn´t help but wonder what Robin exactly thought of him. Did she saw him as a friend? Or simply as a training partner? As someone who could help her to accomplish her goal? He didn´t know.

Sabo smiled, moving Robin´s hair away from her face. Instead of pulling his hand back it stayed where it was, gently caressing Robin´s hair. He had never noticed how soft Robin´s hair was… they were like silk. He felt a sudden urge to kiss her, but quickly shook his head. He was not going to get accused on taking advantage of her, not again. The last time had been complete accident anyway! They had been training; he had slipped and fallen on her. And of course Nora happened to walk in just three seconds later. You can guess the rest.

Sabo looked at the clock, realizing that he´d need to go. He had promised to discuss with Dragon about some supposedly very important mission.

"I need to go now; get well soon" he whispered to Robin, standing up. He cast her one last look before leaving the room.

XXXXX

Sabo was standing on the deck of Dragon´s ship. He didn´t know where the ship was going; Dragon had said that there was no time to explain. However, the blonde could tell it was urgent since Dragon had been pacing around his office nervously when he got in. And he even sent Leslie, who never did what Dragon said unless the situation was really serious. He felt bad thought; he didn´t even have the time to say bye to Robin. But he sure was grateful that Leslie had told him earlier where to find her.

XXXXX

"I´m gonna kill that bastard!" Sabo thought for who knows how many times in the past three months as he walked in the hallways of the HQ. The mission had not been what he had thought; the damn bastard had sent him to the Corvo Mountains! Apparently Dadan, who Sabo just found out was Dragon´s old friend, had gotten badly sick and Dragon had gotten the great idea to sent him there to cheer her up.

"Yeah, cheer her up" Sabo thought with a dark chuckle "She almost got a heart attack; thinking she saw a ghost!"

Luckily Leslie, who also knew Dadan, assured her that Sabo wasn´t a ghost. They talked for a while before Dogura and Magura came in and the scene was replayed. After that Sabo and Leslie explained everything. He spent few days in Goa, going around the woods remembering the old times. He visited the Gray Terminal but hid his face; not wanting to take the risk that someone who knew him would see him. He even snuck in to Fuusha Village to see Makino and the mayor, keeping his face hidden. When they left back to Baltigo Sabo made Dadan and the others promise they wouldn´t say a word to Makino and the mayor. They did promise to shut up, but he wasn´t that sure if they´d keep their promise or not.

"Sabo-kun?"

Sabo stopped suddenly, looking to his left. There, in the doorway, Robin was standing in her purple nightgown. He really shouldn´t be surprised; it was late already and that was Robin´s doorway. Why had he come here again? He couldn´t remember; right now the only thing he could see and think about was her.

"Yeah?" he realized to say after the awkward silence.

"It´s good to see you´re back" Robin said, making Sabo frown. He could almost swear she had been about to say something completely else, but stopped at the last moment.

"It´s good to be back" he said with a smile. They stared at each other for a while until Robin looked away.

"Get down"

"Huh?" was all Sabo said before he fell to the ground, being tackled by Nora.

"Sabo!" the redhead cheered "I missed you!"

"Yeah yeah, now get off!" the blonde hissed. He should have known this was coming! Nora got off, turning her gaze to Robin. She looked at the older woman up and down before asking: "What were you two doing before I got here?"

"Not what you think" Sabo replied, whacking her on the head.

"Ow!" Nora yelled "Robin help, Sabo´s being mean!" she wailed, clinging to the older woman´s arm.

"Fight your own fights, damn it!" Sabo cursed. Robin laughed at them, pushing the younger woman away from her.

"Bedtime for kids Nora" she said, making the youngest one pout.

"Do I have to go?"

"Yes" Sabo said, pointing to the direction Nora had come from "Now go"

"You´re no fun" Nora muttered as she walked away.

"Kids" Sabo muttered under his breath, sighing.

"You seem to be good with kids" Robin commented.

"I have some experience with them" Sabo thought, a nostalgic look coming to his face.

"Care to tell me more?"

"Nope" Sabo said, swallowing "Night" he said and walked away.

XXXXX

Time went by fast and tomorrow a ship would set sail to drop Robin off in to Sabaody Archipelago, which made Sabo nervous for three reasons. One: Luffy would go off to the sea soon too, and as a big brother he naturally worried. Two: he was afraid that Robin might say something to Luffy that made him realize he was still alive. And three…. well, he really didn´t want to see her go. He liked her; she was fine company. A knock on the door took Sabo out of his thoughts.

"Yeah?" he asked. The door opened and Clark came in "What is it?"

"Aren´t you going to say goodbye to Robin?" the older man asked bluntly.

"I will" Sabo said "Tomorrow morning; she isn´t leaving today"

"I know, but wouldn´t it be better if you´d go to talk to her now?" Clark asked "You two would have some time alone…"

Sabo´s eyebrow twisted.

"What makes you think I would want some alone time with her?" he asked "If someone here´s wanting that it´s you"

Clark rolled his eyes. Sabo knew he had a huge crush on Robin; it was obvious to everyone.

"I do, but she prefers your company" Clark said "I´m sure she would love to spend some alone time with you before she leaves"

"Really?"

"Yeah, she just loves to make fun of you, especially when you´re there" Clark said, almost earning a black eye from the younger man again.

"Go to hell!" the blonde hissed. Clark just laughed as he avoided the punch.

"I know you´ll go there tonight" he stated before leaving. Sabo sighed, sitting down again. Should he go? He knew that if he did she´d start to make fun of him again. Clark was right with one thing; she just loved to do that.

"The hell with that, I´m going!" Sabo decided, making up his mind. On his way to Robin´s room he was wondering what he should say and should he tell about Luffy and him or not? He didn´t know… but he did know that he didn´t want to ruin their last night together.

"I better shut up about Luffy" Sabo decided as he knocked on to Robin´s door. Not long after Robin opened the door, already in her purple nightgown, which was no wonder since it was already late.

"Sorry, did I wake you up?" he asked, blushing. Why did that nightgown had to be so damn revealing?

"No, not at all" Robin said, shaking her head "Do you need something?"

Sabo opened his mouth but then closed it again. What should he say? Damn, he should have thought this through!

"Well I was just… uuh…" Sabo muttered, heat rising to his cheeks as Robin laughed. He sighed.

"Never mind" he said, starting to walk away. Only after a couple of steps he felt Robin take his hand, stopping him to the spot.

"What is it?" he asked, turning around. Robin was looking at the floor, still holding his hand.

"I…" she said, but didn´t continue. Sabo waited patiently, not saying a word. Now would be a good chance for him to finally make fun of her, but he had the feeling now really wasn´t the best time.

"I just wanted to say that… well…" Robin muttered again. Sabo raised an eyebrow; she sounded nervous. The Robin he knew was never nervous and always knew what she was going to say. What was wrong with her now? He heard her sigh before she said: "Never mind"

Sabo frowned; he´d have to know what was so hard for her to say! He squeezed Robin´s hand tighter so that she wouldn´t be able to pull it back. She looked up, confusion written all over her face.

"Finish what you started" Sabo told her. She looked down, and he was sure he saw her blushing.

"I just…" Robin said again and sighed "I´m just glad you were here these past two years; I wouldn´t have made it without you"

Sabo blinked. Say what? What did she mean by that?

"Well goodnight" Robin said, letting go of Sabo´s hand "Night" was all he was able to say before she got in to her room and closed the door.

XXXXX

Sabo ran faster than in ages; he had to make it! He had to see Robin one more time before the ship left!

"Where´s the ship!" he asked Dragon as he got in the port. The older man smirked and pointed off to the horizon where the ship could be seen. Shit.

"Ow! What the hell!" Sabo asked from Nora who had jumped in to his back from behind.

"You~ are~ la~te~!" the girl cheered "Robin already left!"

"I can see that" Sabo told, a vein popping on his head. Then he got an idea: "Can you drop me off to the ship, Nora?"

The girl smirked, saying: "Sure!"

Sabo smiled, watching as the redhead turned in to a big, dark blue pterosaur. He hopped on and Nora took off towards the ship Robin was on, reaching it in a couple of minutes.

"Thanks Nora" Sabo said, hopping off of her back on to the ship. The ones on the deck turned to look at him, but returned to their activities as they saw who it was. All except one, Sabo noticed. Robin was staring straight at him from her spot on the railing. Sabo walked over to her and she stood up.

"Hi" Sabo said, scratching his head.

"What are you doing here, Sabo-kun?" Robin asked.

"I just came to give you this" Sabo said, fishing out a small package "Give it to your captain when you see him"

What Sabo had was a book wrapped in to white paper. It was a book that he had written, a book about his life. He thought that Luffy could read it and that way know he was alive.

"What´s in it?" Robin asked.

"Like I said, something for your captain" Sabo told "So don´t try to find out"

"Don´t I get anything?" Robin asked, making Sabo go red. When the woman laughed Sabo realized she was just making fun of him.

"I should probably go" Sabo said, but as soon as he turned around he felt arms being wrapped around his neck with Robin´s body leaning against him.

"Robin?" he questioned and the arms wrapped around his neck tighter.

"No goodbyes, right?" Robin asked. Sabo smiled, moving his hand on Robin´s own.

"Of course not" he replied, turning around. He managed to hide his surprise under a smile as he saw the tears that were streaming down Robin´s cheeks. He wiped them away, wrapping his arms around Robin.

"We´ll see each other again" Sabo told and Robin nodded with a smile. They stared at each other for a while before Sabo let go.

"See ya" he said and jumped on Nora´s back, waiving until Robin was out of sight. When they landed and Nora turned back in to her human form she cheered: "That was so romantic!"

Bong!

"Ow!" Nora whined, rubbing her head that Sabo had just hit "Sabo you jerk!"

Sabo ignored her, walking away.

"Let´s go eat breakfast, Nora" the blonde said.

"Sure!" the redhead said, running off to the HQ. Sabo cast one last look at the ocean before going after his friend, wondering what the future would bring for this day.

A.N: So did you like it? Did you like my OCs? I´ve used them before too, Leslie in True Identity, I promise and Teasing Wars. Nora´s been in The Best Valentine´s Day Ever, Humiliating, Christmas?, Drunk and Teasing Wars. They were both also mentioned in "I wish." Clark and his siblings have been in Drunk and Christmas? I think that was all… anyway, SaRo fans, review!
