Chapter Text

Breakfast went well. In their case, it started with insults and ended up with a hot passionate kiss. Remembering his promise to his kids, he filmed his husband as he was eating; though he had to ask Usopp to cut some parts of the video before he showed it to them.

Now, they were on his bike heading to one of the branches of the Baratie to drop Sanji off. It was almost nine in the morning when they reached the place and as soon as he had parked his bike, Sanji slipped off his bike while taking the helmet off.

"Thank you for the meal moss head." The blonde said as he leaned and whispered to the other man, "Happy anniversary, Zoro. I love you." He then completely closed the gap between them. With closed eyes, the green haired man put his hands on the other man's waist in an attempt to pull him closer. After a few moments, they both pulled away, gasping for air.

Zoro hugged him tightly before whispering back, "I love you too, cook." He then kissed the other man on the forehead, smiling when the other man hugged him back. "I'll pick you up later, love."

"Yeah. See you later, Zoro." Sanji answered as he pecked a kiss on Zoro's cheek before pulling away, though he didn't really want to.

As soon as Zoro got off of his bike, he felt the atmosphere around him changed. He then looked around to see a limo pulled in in front of his dojo. He recognized it of course, it was owned by a ruthless rich bastard named Doflamingo; he knew exactly why the vehicle had parked in front of his property.

He took off his helmet off and walked towards the limo. He had expected that Baby, the woman who tried to talk to him to sell his property off to Doflamingo's company for almost two months now, would come out of the car, but today she was not alone. Sitting inside the car was none other than the owner of the Smile Factory himself, Don Quixote Doflamingo.

"Good day, Mr. Roronoa Zoro." Baby said as soon as he was facing them. "My boss wants to personally talk to you about your property." She added.

Zoro snorted. This woman should know by now that there was no way, that he would sell his Dojo. "I thought we were done talking about this."

"This would be the last time we would talk about this Mr. Roronoa." The woman replied coldly before motioning for Zoro to step inside the limo. He shrugged before stepping inside the vehicle and as soon as he was seated opposite the other man, Baby closed the door.

"Mr. Roronoa." The other man's voice was cold and dangerous behind his evil smile. "It's a pleasure to finally meet you." Doflamingo added. Zoro just nodded, making the other man laughed.

"Fufufufu. You're a funny man Mr. Roronoa."

"Enough with that, let's get down to business." Zoro said impatiently making the other man laugh again.

"Fufufufu! Quite impatient." Doflamingo looked straight at him through his weird tinted eye glasses. "Mr. Roronoa, I think you already know why I am here." His voice was cold and almost demonic; making the hair on the back of his neck stood on its end.

"Yes, I know. And I thought that I made myself clear the last time I talked to your secretary." He answered coldly.

"Indeed. But I am sure that there are other ways to convince you." Doflamingo said as grabbed a bottle of wine beside him. "Do you want some wine Mr. Roronoa? This wine is good, fermented to its perfection." Without waiting for an answer, the other man poured the alcohol in the glass next to him then offered it to the green haired man who was now scowling at him. Zoro took the glass of wine then set it beside him without taking his eyes off of the other man.

"I am sure that there is no way for you to convince me, Mr. Doflamingo." Zoro answered as leaned back casually and folded his arms across his chest.

"You seem so sure." Doflamingo replied coldly as he sipped his alcohol before speaking again. "By the way, how's your family Mr. Roronoa."

SHIT. That's it! This man was certainly getting under his skin. "That's none of your business." He growled.

"Fufufufu. You're so protective when it comes to your family." The other man said as he watched Zoro intently under those red tinted glasses.

"Do I have to repeat myself Mr. Don Quixote?!" The green haired man asked as he gritted his teeth. His voice slightly raised.

"No, Mr. Roronoa." He replied as he sipped his wine again. "Now, I am sure that you will not be happy if something happens to any of them."

Zoro realized where this talk would be heading and he was not happy about it. This man was trying to threaten him using his family and Zoro would not let that pass. He sat up straight and put his hands beside him, instantly turning it white as he closed his fists. "Are you threatening me, Mr. Doflamingo?" He said between gritted teeth.

The other man laughed again, making him even more furious. "Fufufufu. Of course not. Why would I even do that? I am only here to convince you to sell off your property to me Mr. Roronoa."

"I have already told you that I will never sell my property to you Mr. Doflamingo. This conversation ends here." He answered as he tried to restrain himself from punching the other man on the face. He grabbed his helmet beside him and stepped out of the vehicle.

As soon as he stepped out he heard the other man speak. "We'll see Mr. Roronoa and by the way, take care of your family." Zoro stopped on his track, his eyes wide as he tried to process what the other man had said. Doflamingo's words sent chills all over his body and when he turned around, he saw the other man's devilish grin before Baby stepped inside the vehicle and closed the door. Leaving him dumbstruck as he watched the car sped away from his dojo.

It was almost five in the afternoon when Sanji finished his work. He had been busy the whole day and he didn't even have time to call his husband to let him know that their kids visited him when he was on his lunch break. Now that he remembered, he fished his phone out of his pocket to call his husband. He waited for a few more rings before the other man answered his phone.

"Hey, moss head." Sanji said as soon as he heard the other man picked up his phone.

"Hello, shitty cook." The other man responded before he sighed.

Sanji instantly knew that there was something wrong. He frowned while he was watching a limo parked in the restaurant's parking lot. "What's wrong Zoro?" He asked as he watched a woman and a tall man with pink feathered coat stepped out of the vehicle.

"Nothing's wrong Sanji." He realized that he was staring at the two new comer for too long when his husband answered. Luckily, the two could not see him since he was leaning behind a tree.

"You think I'll believe that? Zoro, I was not born yesterday." He said as his patience threatened to slip away. He did not want to hear his husband like this. He just could not bear to see his husband that way.

He heard the other man sighed deeply before he spoke. "Not now Sanji. I'll tell you about it soon but now's not the time."

Sanji groaned before changing the topic 'cause he knew that their conversation would end up badly if he kept on pestering his better half. This day should be a good day for them. They should be celebrating not fighting. He took a deep breath before speaking again. "Okay. By the way, the kids dropped by earlier with my old man. They said that they would go to the amusement park." He smiled to himself as he remembered his conversation with their kids.

Earlier this afternoon.

Sanji was outside the restaurant, taking his afternoon smoke when he saw his kids running towards him. He pulled his final drag off of his cigarette before crushing it under his foot. The kids threw themselves to him almost sending him off balance. He laughed as he carry both of them in his arms. God. He missed both of them even if they were gone for just a day.

"Papa! We missed you so much!" The two young boys said while they were hugging him tightly.

He kissed the two of them on the forehead before putting them down. "I missed the both of you too, but where's your gramps?" He asked them as he looked for the sign of the old man.

"Gramps headed to the kitchen. He said that we will not find you inside, so we headed here." Little moss said as he hugged his papa once more.

"Papa! Gramps will bring us to the amusement park later!" Little sun said as he excitedly jumped around.

He smiled at them and wondered how his kids managed to convince the old man to bring them to the amusement park. His father never brought him to an amusement park, he always told him that it was a shitty place.

Sanji knelt in front of his kids to be in the same level with them before speaking again. "Yeah? Are you excited boys?" He said while grinning widely at them. Both kids were humming with energy, their eyes glittered with excitement.

"Yes!" Both children answered him excitedly.

They went inside the restaurant before they continued their conversation since the old man was busy shouting at the crew inside the kitchen. The boys couldn't stop themselves but asked about their dad's surprise for him. It seemed that his husband already talked to their children beforehand, and he did not need to be a genius to figure out how he convinced them to stay with their gramps.

"Oi little eggplants! Let's get going!" The old man said as he grumpily walked out of the kitchen.

"Papa, we have to go." The green haired child told him.

"Okay. Off you go before the old man change his mind." Sanji said as he stood up and carried his children in his arms once again. He carried them until he reached the old man's car.

"Papa, I'll miss you and daddy too." Little sun said as he hugged and kissed him. He put his children down before hugging and kissing them on the forehead.

"I'll miss both of you too. Little moss, you have to look after your little brother. Is that okay?" He asked the green haired boy as he put his hand on his head.

"Yes, papa. I will not let him out of my sight. I promise!" He answered as he raised his left hand before realizing that he should be raising the other one. Sanji did not say anything because he knew that he would do everything to protect his little brother. He then looked at his blonde son before speaking again. "And you little sun, you have to listen to your brother." The child nodded before hurling towards him once again.

"Oi! Eggplants! Are we going or not?!" Zeff shouted at them.

"Kids can you cover your ears for a while?" His children nodded at him before covering their ears. He grinned at them then shouted at his old man.

"Hey old man! Don't talk to my children like that! What kind of shitty grandfather at you?!"

"Look who's talking?! Aren't you doing the opposite here?! Should you be shouting at your father, you little brat?!" Zeff retorted. His braided moustache twitched a little, a sign which showed that he was amused.

"That's different you shitty old man! You better take care of my children old man or I'll kick your ass!" He retorted before kneeling in front of his children to bid them goodbye. "It's okay now sweet hearts. You can take off your hands now." He said as he pulled them into a hug again. "Be good okay? I love both of you."

"We love you too papa!" His kids said as they both hugged him back. He peck little kisses on their forehead before letting them go and guiding them inside the car.

"Be careful old man." He said to Zeff before the car started and he waved as his kids waved back at him from behind the car.

Zoro chuckled after listening to his story, his mood seemed better than before. "I'm a little jealous. Why did they visit you and not me?" His husband told him. He could practically see his husband grinned at him.

"You really want to know the answer mosshead?" He said teasingly.

"You're a bastard, you know that?" His better half chuckled.

"Like you're one to talk."

Zoro laughed at him before answering. "Your work's done, love?" His voice sultry and smooth.

"Yeah, and that's why I called you."

"Okay, I'm just closing the dojo since the kids already left. Just wait for me."

"Yeah. See you in a bit."

"Yeah. I'll be quick. B-"

"Zoro," Sanji said cutting off his husband. "I love you." His voice soft and sweet.

"I love you too, Sanji." His husband said as if its the only truth in this world.

"Bye, love. Take care." The blonde said before ending the call.
