Yeah! Chapter two is up and it's way longer than the first. Please enjoy. I forgo the disclaimer last time so I'll put one this time.

Disclaimer: I sadly do not own one piece.

Zoro sighed heavily as he slammed the door shut the door and locked it before sliding down to the floor and simply laying there, not really caring enough to move all the way towards his hammock. It probably would have been a good idea to get off the ship for awhile, but to do that he'd have to go onto the island and that was exactly what he was trying not to do. He'd messed up and he knew it, but it was too late now. There was nothing he could do to change what he'd just done. He should have known something like this might happen if he left the men's quarter's that morning, but there was nothing he could do about that either. If Zoro was on the ship he usually didn't miss a meal unless he was stuck in the infirmary because Chopper had proclaimed him too injured to go all the way to the galley for meals.

Since this was not the case he knew if he'd stay in the men's quarters someone might come looking for him. Especially since the ero-cook had a strict no wasting food/starving one's self policy. Not that he cared. He just didn't feel arguing with the dart-brow, kinda like he'd just got through with arguing with the witch a few minutes ago.

He liked to think that he had pretty good control over his emotions, except his temper. He had never been good at controlling his temper and he got irritated easily, and today was especially hard for him. He should have known he might blow up at some one like this. Zoro just wished that someone had been Chopper or Ussop and not Nami. At least if he had gotten this angry with Chopper or Ussop instead of the greedy witch all that would have happened was that they would have avoided him for a few days, but Nami wasn't Chopper or Ussop and she was not going to avoid him like some frightened little lamb. She was pissed and she was probably on her way to ask Zoro what exactly the hell was wrong with him, and other question that Zoro just didn't feel like answering right now.

Zoro sighed heavily again. 'This day just keeps getting better and better.' He thought sarcastically to himself as he waited patiently for Nami to angrily start banging on the door and yelling at him to open it.

Nami blinked in surprise before picking herself up off the deck, still a bit shocked and angry that Zoro had actually pushed her with such force. Zoro had never even lightly tapped before, let alone shove her to the ground. "What the hell is problem?" Nami muttered angrily to herself as she brushed off imaginary dust from her person.

"Swordsman-san has been rather quiet today…well more than usual. Maybe something's wrong with him." Robin commented from the lawn chair she was currently lying down on, the novel she was reading, for the moment, forgotten.

"You think so?" Nami questioned, calming down slightly.

"It would explain why he refused to go shopping with you. Usually he complains and grumbles a bit but when you threaten him with raising his debt he usually complies. He's never refused you so adamantly before nor has he ever shoved you away." Robin replied.

Nami thought about this for a few seconds before coming to a decision. "Alright then all we have to do is find out what's wrong and fix. Simple enough." She told the older woman suddenly, smiling now that she (sort of) found a way to fix the situation.

Robin grinned. "I never knew you cared so much for Swordsman-san."

Nami cheeks flushed a bright pink. "I don't. I just need him to carry my shopping bags. Sanji's busy buying food supplies, Luffy's went exploring and Chopper's busy helping Ussop with getting supplies for some kind of experiment thing. Zoro's the only one left but he's being unreasonable. I have to put a stop to that."

"Of course." Robin said with a knowing smile. Since she didn't feel the need to point out that with her devil fruit powers she could easily carry all of Nami's bags.

Nami narrowed her eyes a bit in suspicion. "What's that suppose to mean?"

Instead of answering the question Robin simply stood up, grabbed Nami's wrist, and dragged her towards the men's quarters. "Come on Navigator-san. Let's go see what's wrong with Swordsman-san.

"Zoro. Open the door." He heard Nami call softly on the other side of the door.

'Funny. She doesn't sound all that angry at me. I wonder what calmed her down.' He thought as he shifted into a more comfortable position on the floor.

When he didn't answer Nami tried again. "Come on Zoro. Stop being stubborn and open the door. We just want to talk to you."

'We?' thought Zoro, 'She must have brought Robin,' but instead of voicing his thought he remained silent.

Silly really since Nami clearly knew he was there, but he thought maybe if he ignored her enough she'd get tired and go away. He hoped in vain of course. Nami was never one to give up so easily. Zoro heard the jingle of keys and cursed silently in his head. He'd forgotten Nami had the keys to every room on the Merry Go. Before Zoro could even get half way off the ground he was knocked back onto the floor by Nami suddenly swinging the door wide open. Nami stepped inside and Robin soon after.

"That's what you get for shoving me onto to the ground." She said while grinning down at him even though really she hadn't meant to knock him over. It just sort of happened that way.

"What do you want Nami?" Zoro questioned as he picked up himself off the floor.

"You shoved me." She said simply.

"You were irritating and in my way." He said crossing his legs Indian-style on the floor.

"You usually don't get that mad when I ask you to do something." She commented.

"…."Zoro had nothing to say to that. He was dreading the questions that he knew were coming.

"Why don't you want you to go to the island?" She asked.

"Because." He said in way of avoiding the question even though he knew such childishness would just annoy Nami.

"Because what?"

"Just because."

The vein in Nami's jaw twitched. "Because is not answer."

Robin simple watched them both silently, a look of amusement on her face.

Zoro grinned. "It is when I use it."

"Zoro…" Nami said through clenched. She was trying very hard not to get too angry with Zoro, lest they have a repeat of what happened earlier.

"Maybe Swordsman-san not wanting to go to the island has something to do with his nightmares." Robin said suddenly as she watched surprised looks come over both Nami and Zoro's faces for two very different reasons.

"You're having nightmares?" Nami asked but Zoro completely ignored the question.

Instead he turned to robin, his eyes narrowing slightly. "How did you know about that?" He asked. He thought he'd been hiding it pretty well, but obviously not well enough if Robin had noticed.

The archeologist just shrugged. "Why else would you be up before dawn when it's not even your watch?" She asked. "Besides, you've had dark rings under your eyes."

Again, Zoro had nothing to say. What could he? Fortunately (or unfortunately.) he didn't have to because their conversation was interrupted by a loud and screechy voice calling his name.

"Zooorrrrroooo-sssaaaammmaaaa!" called out the insanely loud and distinctly female voice calling out his name.

Sorry I have to end it here on this little cliff hanger but more will be revealed next chapter. Promise. Plz. R&R
