Chapter 1 : How two morons...

Zoro placed his right hand on Sanji's shoulder, with a soft and enigmatic grin. He felt the guy tensing under the pressure:

"Are you alright, mister blond-cook?"

"Yeah… nothing… I already told you not to call me like that; we're just apprentices. "

"Sure you're all good ?"

"Yeah!" The other answered, apparently more and more tensed.

Zoro turned his head to the long line of cars. He had noticed how his comrade was looking at him all this time, and he felt that gaze particularly strange, especially from a guy like Sanji. They just had met after all, it was maybe the second time they talked to each other, nothing else. Nami had introduced them on a picnic area, right between two tests but nothing really connected the boys at the moment.

So why being so… strange with him suddenly?

The cook looked up with sadness and lit a cigarette. Zoro pointed the window on the side. Sanji understood the message and opened it.

"I didn't know you had this habit…"

"… That's… the best way I can focus on things." Sanji replied, looking at the sun in his slow landing on the city.

"So you need to focus on something now? And not this morning…?"

"Tch… yeah, it would have been easier for me to smoke during the tests. But here and now it's different."

Zoro was not really listening the end of the answer, his look was now the problem right in front of him:

"Ah… I don't think we're about to get you home… Looks like this is a real jam…"

"A real what ?" Sanji turned his face to his new 'friend' and frowned seriously.

"I mean were stuck in traffic, for real." Zoro slowly replied.

"Too bad…"

Zoro paused for a moment and let go the steering wheel with a painful sigh:

"You don't want to leave the car? After all we're near your place now."

"I won't leave. We made a deal. You drive me until I'm home. That's all. I won't leave the car before that moment."

The strong response made Zoro's body tense a little bit too. He clenched the muscles of his arm and felt the urge to stretch everything he could:

"Wow… fuck, being stranded in this little car isn't good for my back…"

" You should see a doctor…" Said the blond man on his side. "People like you are more affected by back pains."

"What?"

"You're an athletic guy, right?"

"Yeah… Nami told you this?"

"Yes… She also told me you that were too proud of your body to let anyone see it." Sanji turned his face to him. "Is that right?"

Zoro smiled, a bit surprised:

"Maybe…" He answered, with his personal touch of mystery in this voice. "Now I wonder why she said all that crap."

"Because it's true…" Sanji paused a moment. "Even your parents?"

"Gh…" Zoro opened wide his eyes at that. "Of course! I don't live with them anymore! What do you think ? 20 years old, that's already too old to be stuck in a house with mommy and daddy. "

"So you're independent…" Sanji mumbled while rubbing his neck. "What a lucky guy…"

"And totally happy with it." Zoro added.

"Good for you…"

"Yeah…"

Zoro didn't know what to say after this. Sanji really appeared troubled at the moment. Maybe he was just tired, after all they had passed more than 6 hours of test on this very day so… being a little odd wasn't so abnormal right now.

The green-haired student turned his head on the traffic and wished he could annihilate the responsible of all this mess. He sighed again:

"Sure about staying with me?"

Sanji didn't answer, he began to cross his fingers, like if he was playing a sort of child's game.

"Hey, I'm talking to you! Damn cook…"

"Stop calling like this already."

"Stop ignoring me."

Sanji lifted his look:

"Are you that touchy?"

"Fuck you… I'm not touchy! I'm just being interested in you that's all."

Sanji's face immediately went paler. Zoro didn't miss that detail and continued, troubled by his comrades' reaction:

"I mean… I invited you. You could at least being nice and all that…"

"I don't receive orders…" Sanji muttered. "Besides, Nami told me that you would be happy to drive me home, I never asked for."

Zoro turned his face to him:

"Oh…really ?"

"Yeah… Tell her if you need to insult anyone."

"Ah." Zoro felt wrong. "No, I didn't want to insult you, sorry man… really."

"That's ok…" Sanji smiled at him. "I suppose this improvised trip has his good and bad sides."


The two men stopped all eye-contact for a good 5 minutes, until several cars suddenly moved forward:

"Oh… there's some move!"

"What time is it?"

"About…" Zoro looked at his watch; there was a dead head on the dial. "About seven."

"Great… I'm going to miss my favorite TV show…" Sanji frowned deeply.

"…Which is?"

"Are you really interested in me?"

The question troubled Zoro at the highest point, he eventually answered, lost:

"Of course… why wouldn't I? Being a liar at this point of the conversation could be useless! And… You seemed nice at the first sight."

Sanji titled his head a little, before speaking with a strange tone:

"I'm glad you think that…"

"Well, nobody tells you compliments in general?"

"No… Never." Sanji seemed to realize something while saying that. "I'm not a great person Zoro, you'll soon find it out."

"I'm sure you're wrong… Everybody is a potential friend for me… I'm what you could call an open-minded person. So long as you don't upset me too much..."

Sanji smiled at this:

"Ah… So we're quite the opposite sides of the same card…"

"Why…?"

"I don't have any good friends… Even Nami… She is nice with me but… "

Zoro eventually let a soft smile appeared on his face:

"You're lying."

"No, I'm not. Why would I? You said yourself that it was ridiculous to lie at this point of the conversation."

"True… but I can't believe you."

"Why?"

"Cause…" Zoro shrugged. "Cause you're one of the hunks… that's all."

Sanji suddenly coughed away his cigarette:

"What?"

"Yeah… Sounds odd you're not that popular."

"It's not a question of popularity… It's just that… I'm not sociable at all." He paused, before putting back the cigarette on his tongue. "But… Am I dreaming or…? Were you telling me I'm pretty or something like that?"

"Yeah… Why ? Is it the first time someone tells you this?"

"…" Sanji's face went red at this point. "Of course! I don't know in what world you live but it's clearly not mine!"

"Hehe…" Zoro took a long break on the road to laugh at that. "You're funny too… Nice… You know what…? I think I'm just gonna compliment you again and again because that makes you even more pretty."

Sanji definitively lost control of the color his cheeks could handle; he felt the blood going in his head in terrible streams.

Oh, fuck… is that guy… could be actually flirting with me or…?

Or is he like that with every one?

While debating the way he could answer to this awkward situation, Sanji was staring at the side of the road, where some people were talking out of their cars, guessing that nobody would be able to go home again this night.

"What…? Are you going to leave me already?"

"No…" Sanji felt his heart beating with an irregular rhythm. "I'm just thinking about what I could say after your strange talk."

"Strange talk…?" Zoro frowned. "I don't see what you mean."

"Don't play the fool game with me Zoro, I know you like games…"

"Nami told you this too?"

"No, I guessed it myself."

"Great…" Zoro stretched again, showing his hard muscles tightened in his white T-shirt. "Then tell me if you guess when this bottling will end."

"Tch…" The blond guy stopped looking at the conductor and tried to close his eyes and find some rest. "Really funny bro".

"Wow… you're going closer with that word… I didn't think you were the kind of guy to say that."

"Me neither…" Sanji whispered.

"Full of surprise this cooky-cooky blond student."

"Shut up…"

"Hey ! I'm the one who is driving! If you insult me, I'll just kick you out."

"But the road is blocked you stupid green-haired student, I would just wait outside until I manage to enter back in the car."

"And if I locked those doors?"

"Tsss… you wouldn't do that." Sanji opened his eyes.

"Really?" Sanji felt more and more interested by this guy, he definitively was a good choice.

"Because you're too proud, you need someone besides you, you hate being alone… Am I right?"

Zoro paused.

Yes, that Sanji was a real piece of cake…

Acid…

And fruity at the same time.

"I'll keep that in mind, thanks…"

"Just tell me I'm wrong and I leave immediately…"

Zoro looked at his fellow, showing a painful expression:

"No… I definitively don't want you to leave…"

"Good, I'm not."

"Right…"


Zoro and Sanji felt that some silence was necessary for a minute of two. After this time, observing the sun going down, listening to the various sounds of klaxons or the voices of all the people outside, yelling or speaking on the phone… after all this time Zoro eventually turned the radio on.

"… On this epic day, an epic traffic jam had just stuck more than 5 kilometers of cars at the entrance of the city so far. The cause of that huge mess would be an accident near the mayor's house, but that's all our reporter knows for the moment. At this rate, it's highly possible for all the people on the road to stay the full night immobilized. What an awful statement Christine…"

"Indeed Carl, I'm really happy to be here with you on this show and not inside of a gloomy and stinky car!"

"More information in five minute, keep drinking orange juice!"

"Yeah! That's the best to do now with the climate! And don't forget to give more water to your pets, that's important!"

"Absolutely Christine, those little monsters can really be thirsty!"

"What a crap."

Zoro turned off the radio and sighed. He rolled his eyes to Sanji and eventually saw a small trail of sweat on his forehead:

"We can open the windows more if you want."

"No, I'm alright." Sanji dropped his cigarette out and closed the last window. "I'm not feeling the temperature anyway."

"As you want, master…"

"Hey… I was wondering…"

"Yeah?"

"How did Nami described me?"

Zoro looked at Sanji and scratched one of his eyebrows:

"She never described you… I just talked to you yesterday when we lunched in the park with her; it was the same day I learnt your existence on this planet."

"… Guess I'm not really the type of guy everybody would talk about."

"I would…"

"…?" Sanji glanced with insistence to the other man.

"I would talk about you…"

Sanji crossed his arms on his chest and tried not to react:

"Tch… enough with your silly game."

"I'm not playing, I swear! "Zoro smiled. "I'm just being honest… You're interesting, and I might talk about you to EVERYONE I know tomorrow… "

"Stop already…"

"Do you think I'm not serious? Really?" Zoro was even more insistent here, placing his hand again on his comrade's shoulder. "Cause' I'm really serious when I say those words."

"…" Sanji hesitated. "I'm not sure if that's something good or not. What would you say about me?"

"That you're a great guy… full of joy and filled with all the happiness of the world!" Zoro maliciously grinned to Sanji. "Ok, I'm playing stupid here… But… I would tell you're cool… and quite handsome…" Zoro accompanied this remark with a soft caress on Sanji's lap.

Sanji, suddenly upset, glared at Zoro:

"Are you gay or anything?"

Pause.

Then Zoro suddenly burst into laugh. It was maybe the best to do after all:

"Why that question?" Zoro looked deep into Sanji's eyes. "Could you be interested in me? Hehe… Who cares?"

"I care…" Sanji frowned. "I care for my ass."

"You're being an ass…"

"No I'm not, I just want to know if I have chances of being sexually harassed during this drive. I didn't except this eventuality, I admit it!" The blond guy harshly answered.

"Sanji…" Zoro sighed. "You're not funny at all…"

"Those gay stuff aren't my cup of tea I must say."

"What?"

"That's a French expression you moron."

"Uhm… Sorry for my poor culture, you're the smart one it seems."

"Tch… Everybody knows that one…" The blond student muttered. "Anyway… you didn't answer my question."

"What was the question?" Zoro asked, lost.

"I asked… Are you gay or something?"

Zoro sighed:

"And after…? Even if I was, you don't have to worry about being molested… I'm more of the romantic kind you know."

Sanji couldn't help but laugh at that:

"I doubt of that… And no, I don't feel safer next to you now."

Zoro shouted and crashed his fists on the wheel:

"Keep calm beauty, we're stuck in a damn traffic jam so we should fucking calm down!" He sighed and continued, really softly. "Well… let's talk about something that will bring us to peaceland…"

Sanji chuckled afterwards:

"I didn't except Nami to have that crazy friends…"

"She is a really good girl… Ah… Such diversity in one single person. " Zoro commented, stars in his eyes clearly visible.

"Don't tell me you're in love with her!" Sanji looked worried.

"Nah…" Zoro winked at him. "I'm more into smoking beautiful blond guys… Ya know…"

"… Fucking stupid driver…"

The other muttered while Zoro was laughing uncontrollably. Sanji looked a moment outside. The dark sky was engulfing the whole city under an obscure veil. He smiled:

"You know what…? I've got all the time I want. We're stuck in here, but I don't even care anymore."

"And your favorite TV show?"

"Let's say I found another one… even more funny and stupid. The perfect thing to watch after a hard day…" And Sanji glanced at his fellow.

Zoro could not help but to feel a delicious feeling in his body:

Somewhere, he had just won the first round.
