Not supposed to be seen as romance. Just something small I wrote. Comment welcomed.
Robin gasped as the spear flew her way. This was just like in those adventure books. The woman was in danger of dying and then a hero would come. Except in her story there was no hero. But then Zoro burst from the bushes to stop the spear. Hmm well let's see Zoro could count. He was rather tall, strong, and she guessed he was rugdely dashing. Let's see the hero in the books after appearing would save the woman from the inpeding doom and then land saying something witty. Fat chance of Zoro saying- "Really you shold know to treat a lady better."
Robin made a mental list in her head. Last minute appearance:check. Rugdely dashing : check. Saving me: check. Witty phase to cap it off: check. Let's see what would usually come next. Ah yes the hero would defeat the villian with ease. Well let's see there was the mangled body. After that he was supposed to free her and give her his hand. As she took it she remembered she was supposed to say something ah yes it was," Thank you very much. What can I do to repay you?"
In all fairness to her it wasn't herr fault. After all she was a fan of books and was presented with a scene strait out of one. But still... this is Zoro we're talking about. So instead of the words "As long as your safe I'm happy" he looked at her oddly and said," Just leave me alone and I'm happy. By the way did you hit your head or something? You look a bit misty eyed."
She shook her head dumbly and took his hand and pulled herself up. Really it had been to much to expect Zoro to be the hero strait from a story. As she started following him he mubled," I'm glad your safe though."
Robin smiled. He might not be perfect but he was still a hero. Just rathe rough around the edges.
