ZoLu at dusk

Zoro slept peacefully on the deck. The sky was a gray overcast, and the wind whispered in the teen's ear. And one thought echoed through his head. Luffy, Luffy. He smiled to himself as he thought about his captain.

From a first glance he looked scrawny, and limp. But as Luffy took of his tattered old vest, which he left unbuttoned often, you could see the ripple in his abs.

"What are you smiling about swordshit." Sanji spat, kicking the teen. Zoro spit in Sanji's one eye. "Eh- get a life phantom of the opera." he snarled.

"Yeah come on! Let's see the gross half of your face!" Usopp called out. Sanji kicked the marksman, sending him flying.

Sanji smoothed his blonde hair. 'I do not show the other half of my face because of my overwhelming charm. The ladies can't even handle the good looks of this half. The others would send every woman in the world into love."

Zoro grunted. 'Yeah- in love with Usopp" he said. Usopp laughed. 'Haha, hey! You calling me ugly" he asked. Zoro rolled his eyes. 'No, I meant you're more of a man then Sanji"

Usopp nodded. "Ok."

Luffy bounded out onto the deck. "Zoro! I'm bored." the boy chirped. Zoro stared into his rich brown eyes. "What do you want then?" he asked.

Luffy had forgotten the question and was gazing on Zoro. His muscular jaw line, sharp focused eyes, wide broad chest... just one kiss. "Luffy!!" Zoro said sternly. "Um, can I use you as a pillow?" he asked.

Zoro smiled. 'No drooling" the green haired teen said, leaning against the railing. Luffy rested his head against his friend, tipping the straw hat over his eyes.

"Zoro... it's chilly out here" Luffy said, shivering a bit. Zoro opened one ye. "The cold never bothers you. Why now?' he asked. Luffy shrugged. "Dunno. Can I come closer" Luffy asked, blushing slightly.

Zoro couldn't help but smile. That cute little face. Just wanna pinch that kid. "This better?" he asked, pulling the rubber boy close to his chest.

Luffy let out a little sigh. "Mm hmm" he mumbled, listening to Zoro's heartbeat.

Nami glared at them from the kitchen. "I don't like this" she mumbled. Sanji hurried over to her. "My swan, what don't you like" he asked.

The orange haired witch pointed to Luffy and Zoro. "That, it's just not right." she scowled.

Sanji watched as Luffy snuggled closer to Zoro. "I know, sickening. But there's nothing to do about it." he said, washing off a glass.

Nami smiled. "Or is there. I've got a plan for this little problem." she cackled, her eyes burning right through the couple.

"What have you thought up my dove?" Sanji cooed.

Nami went over to Sanji and whispered the plan in his ear.

There was a crash as the glass Sanji was holding shattered on the floor.
