AN: Hey! I am so shocked on how many of you like this story! But none the less I am glad, I hope you'll like this one and I am sorry for the late update but I am still feeling under the weather and when I'm sick I cant think straight, any who I hope you like this Chapy on Round and Round!

She cleared her throat, looking at him with wide eyes she pulled away from him and walked down the path. She didn't say a word as the two made it back to town, the owner of the shop came running towards Julia and embraced her tight; tears were pouring down the woman's face and Julia forced herself to walk back in her shop along with moss head. As they sat and drank the tea that she poured for them, Julia started to clean her sword; the blade was made of the strongest steal: black steal, engraved in it was "Never forget one's past".

"Julia…I am so glad you are ok!" handing her a cloth to whip the blood off her steal.

"Margret….you know I can not stay, they will find me and maybe even kill you for hiding me"

Zoro gazed at the two of them, seeing Julia interact with this woman as if she was her mother was astounding to him he couldn't understand how much his friend has changed over the past three years. He noticed the care in the woman's eyes and he knew that Julia would've been safe with her, the woman reminded him of Kuina the way her gaze was on Julia and the two smiled. Zoro thought if he would bring Julia on the ship with him, but after what happened he doubt that she was willing to leave Margret behind or go anywhere with him, he sighed shrugging his shoulders and sipped his tea wondering if Luffy would even allow her on the ship. Shaking his head knowing that his captain would never turn away someone in need and the fact that Julia could even join the crew with her strong skills; Zoro stood the two looked at him.

"Where are you going?" Julia crossed her arms and leaned back in her chair.

"I'm going to do something."

As he left she huffed I suppose still mad at him for leaving her three years ago. As he left the small shop he could see that his friends were still sitting at the café laughing as Luffy told jokes. He walked up to them and they stared at him with a smile on their faces, he looked at Luffy and then sighed; Luffy could see the way his second in rank was looking at him and he stood up walking with Zoro. Luffy was always on the funny side but when it came down to it he was serious, they walked around the corner and he looked up at Zoro wondering what was it that he wanted to talk to him about.

"Luffy….I need your help."

He smiled, knowing that usually the young swordsman wouldn't ask for help unless he was unable to do something on his own.

"You see I have this friend who I saved from the Marines and I was wondering if she could join our crew."

Zoro sighed hoping that his friend could help Julia, she had always been in his heart and it pains him to see that she has fallen in the same path that he was in when this whole journey started. Luffy smiled, he had agreed to let her join the crew if she could beat him in a fight; Zoro naturally disagreed with the idea but Julia went along with it anyways.

"My name is Monkey D. Luffy…. Call me Luffy, are you ready?"

She sighed standing in front of Margret's shop holding the hilt of her sword standing her ground.

"Of course…and my name is Julia Styles."

The fight didn't last long, Julia stood still as Luffy tried to trick her and she just swung her sheathed sword and knocked him out for at least a few minutes, he stood up and looked at her, she backed up as little.

"You are in!"

Zoro helped Julia packed her bags and on to the ship, letting her say goodbye to Margret before the ship was off to sail; Zoro walked her to his room seeing that there was no other rooms in the ship…so says Zoro. She sat on the bed looking around the room seeing normal room stuff like shampoo and shoes in the corner….then she noticed his three swords in the corner, she picked them up looking at them with interest; Zoro smiled and sat next to her, she un sheathed it holding the blades in the air and smiled as she placed them back. Zoro was a little confused, eyebrow raised as he looked at her.

"What?"

"Nothing I just wanted to see what type of steal you have."

He looked at her, she looked different up close; her hair looked softer, eyes looked less dangerous her lips softer. He cleared his throat and noticed that his hand was resting near hers and looked up staring into her baby blue eyes that had a hint of green in them which made them glow, he leaned closer to her until his lips pressed to hers once again.

"I missed you so much."

Julia pulled away looking at him anger filling her cheeks as she stood up, she grabbed her bags and started to pull them out side; Zoro stood wondering what he had said to make her angry he followed her out into the dock frowning. She turned around eyes glaring at him.

"Really….you missed me SO much, then why the Fuck didn't you come and see me? Huh? Or at least visit me."

Nami was on the upper decks and looked down at the two fighting, Julia with hurt filled eyes she wondered if this was really the girl Zoro was in love with they argued as if they were past lovers. She took a second glance at Julia and nodded her head in approval the girl was unmistakably beautiful she could now see why he loved her; but why were they fighting? Nami hoisted herself on the railing of the deck looking down at the two once more and jumped down, the two being slightly startled by the sudden appearance of the young red head. She noticed that they stopped fighting once she had appeared and she giggled to herself as she watched the pink blush raise in their cheeks from embarrassment. She sighed placing her hands on her hips looking at them.

"there's an extra room that's in between my room and Ace's room if you would like more privacy?"

Julia smiled and nodded her head as Nami lead the way to the room, helping the young girl unpack. Zoro sighed just thinking of what he could do to get her on his good side and see that he really does love her; about an hour later he found himself on the deck waiting, he was seated and polishing his swords hoping that Julia would stop and say something to him. Julia was sitting on her bed looking over her surroundings she felt slightly uncomfortable and sighed as she stood taking out the clip that held her hair and loosened up her kimono enough for her shoulders to be bare and for her to be comfortable; Zoro was anxious he didn't want Ace getting too friendly with his Julia. He huffed crossed his arms and sighed for a minute before deciding to stand up. Maybe a drink would help him calm down before confronting her, as he walked towards the kitchen he could hear Nami and Sanji talking he couldn't help but over hear.

"Nami….are you actually saying that you will give me a chance?"

Zoro could see her through the slit opening of the door nod her head.

"Yeah…but if you ruin this date then that will be the only chance you'll get ok?"

He couldn't believe what he was hearing, "I wished that Nami would finally give me a chance…hope you wished for something great!" he let go of his breath that he didn't know that he was holding. He walked away scratching his head that star couldn't possibly have powers could it? He past Robin bumping her shoulder the two looked at each other and she smiled.

"Are you ok?"

He nodded slightly.

"Yeah…I think so…I'm going to go see Julia."

Robin's smile faded a little, placing her hand on her hip and taking off her cowgirl hat and passing her hand through her ebony hair. Her powder blue eyes should wisdom as she stared back at Zoro's dark eyes.

"I am surprised you know…one minute you are a complete solo person and now you have this girl that you secretly was in love with….how come you didn't tell us before?"

He looked away from her gaze and shrugged his shoulders.

"I….don't know."

He walked away towards Julia's room, noticed that the door was slightly open and walked in, seeing Julia sitting on her bed with her kimono top loosened to just show her bare shoulders. Her hair was released from the constraints of her ribbon, her back was turned to him it seemed she was trying to meditate but he could see the tension in her face; he walked up behind her placing his hands on her shoulders and rubbing them with his thumbs lightly.

"What do you want?"

She opened her eyes and looked up at him blush faintly on her face.

"I just wanted to see if you were settled…I'm really sorry I didn't visit you earlier." he sat next to her on the bed and placed his hand on her shoulder forcing her to look at him.

"Get out…I am in no mood for your pathetic apologies." she stood as so did he.

He looked at her with hurt in his eyes, he couldn't believe that she was acting this way, had he really hurt her so much?

"But….I made that wish for nothing?" he nearly mumbled to himself but with her ninja like hearing she heard him and turned around, hair falling loss around her frail frame of her face and her kimono on top was now almost exposing her chest.

"What…wish?"
