*realises how fucking short my chapters are* AH DAMN! Sorry . I'll make 'em longer mmkay? GOOD! So many nice reviews... and a couple flamers in my PM inbox -_- FOR GOD'S SAKE, IF YA DON'T LIKE YAOI DON'T READ IT! LOL I got lot's of reviews about the whole 'Sanji's hand' thing from last chapter XDD Got a pissed review on my other story about spoilers... IF YOU HAVEN'T READ ALL OF ONE PIECE WHY ARE YOU READING MY SHITTY WORK WHEN YOU COULD BE READING THE ACTUAL SERIES! Gawd...
Sanji put the finishing touches on the meal he was making before taking a step back to admire his work. "Damn, I make great soup... Luffy's gonna be happy when he sees how much meat I put it in" he chuckled.
The cook walked to the door, calling his nakama for lunch "MY DARLINGS~ LUNCH IS READY~ ...OI YOU SHITHEADS GET IN HERE TOO!" he called, obviously addressing the ladies first.
He tried to supress his laughter when Zoro woke up with a shocked expression on his face, the swordsman's eyes darted back and forth in a panic before he finally calmed down enough to scowl again and throw out a few swears for good measure.
Dumbass marimo must have forgotten he was blind. He was about to laugh to himself when sudden guilt stabbed at him... Zoro had been shocked, maybe even scared, when he woke up just now and it was his fault! And he was laughing at him!
Sanji frowned, "I guess I should keep helping him... it was an ass move to ditch him like I did before, the guy must have been wandering around for hours." he mumbled to himself.
"It's alright, Luffy-san helped him to the deck"
Sanji turned to see Robin standing behind him. "Thanks Robin-chan, guess it's only fair I help that idiot for now..." he began talking to himself again. Robin smiled, it was nice to see the cook caring for their green haired friend instead of trying to murder him for once.
Robin took her seat next to Nami while the others spilled in, everyone except Zoro. Sanji stepped out of the kitchen and looked around.
He sighed when he saw Zoro stumbling along the side of the ship, holding onto the railing to help guide himself. Unfortunatlly, he was going in the opposite direction of the kitchen.
Sanji walked over and reached out to grab Zoro's wrist, apparently Zoro didn't know Sanji was there because when the pale hand ghosted over his own he jumped backwards, eyes darting around trying to see what had touched him.
"Calm down marimo, it's me. You seemed beyond hopeless so I decided to help you out." Sanji explained as he watched Zoro's expression return to a scowl.
Zoro snorted, "Tch, whatever... " he said as he stood up. Sanji grabbed his wrist and began to walk towards the kitchen.
"Look out, stairs." stated Sanji flatly as he began to walk up them, still holding Zoro's wrist. "Wait, what?" was all Zoro could get out before he fell flat on his face.
Sanji snickered a bit when Zoro did a face plant into the deck, "Oi, be careful baka" said Sanji as he helped the swordsman up.
Zoro snorted again, carefully holding the railing as he slowly made his way up the stairs, at the top, Sanji grabbed his wrist once again and led him off to the kitchen.
Once they walked in, Frankey offered to help Zoro to his seat while Sanji went to get the food.
When the cook retunred, he set dishes in front of the two girls before handing out the rest t each of the men. He then returned from protecting the girls' food from their retard captain.
Luffy seemed more focused on Usopp's plate at the moment so he decided to take a break for a second to glance over to the blind swordsman.
Zoro was fumbling with a spoon in a vain attempt to cut his meat, the others just laughed at him. Sanji's heart sank, he didn't care about the marimo, but he felt worse than shit for him to feel like crap when it's his fault.
If the circumstances were ANY different, I would so not do this. Sanji told himself as he walked over to the swordsman. "Oi" he stated, catching Zoro's attention.
"Crap cook? What do you want?" he said gruffly, obviously pissed about the whole spoon-meat thing. Sanji sighed " You're trying to cut your meat with a spoon baka."
Zoro's face went red with embarrassment as he placed the spoon down and began searching for a knife. He finally felt the cold feel of silverwear on his fingers, grasping the object in his fist. Feeling pretty good until Sanji explained, "That's a fork, marimo."
Zoro dropped the fork and grabbed blindly at the table, picking up the first thing he could grab.
"Th-That's my hand bastard" Sanji said coldly. The fuck? What's this shitty feeling? He grabbed my hand in the bath earlier... what's the difference?
Sanji was dragged from his thoughts when Zoro let go of his hand. The unknown feeling left leaving a feeling of... sadness? Maybe he caught something... like the marimo's stupidity. Was being a total idiot contagious?
"Let me help" said Sanji with a sigh, grabbing the fork and knife Zoro managed to miss three times and cutting up the meat into small pieces. Sanji handed Zoro the fork, "There. Eat." with that he left, feeling almost uncomfortable for some reason. He shook it off and went to continue helping the ladies.
Glacing over once and a while to make sure Zoro didn't do anything stupid, Sanji spent the rest of the meal protecting the girls.
After dinner, one-by-one everyone left except Sanji, who was washing dishes, and Zoro, who didn't want to wander about blind for the next four hours in search of the deck.
It was silent other than the clinking of dishes until Zoro spoke.
"Cook."
Sanji glanced over "Hm?"
"What's going to happen if I never get my sight back?" he almost whispered. Sanji was the last person he wanted to talk to about this but he had to let it out now and it would take ages to find anyone else.
Sanji's heart clenched, it was possible Zoro was permanatly blind. And it was Sanji's fault, "I don't know... guess you'll just need to find another fighting style"
"Tch... how am I supposed to defeat Hawkeyes if I need to learn an entire new fighting style? Geez... I'm so screwed."
Sanji put down the last of the dishes before walking over "Oh for god's sake! You're Roronoa fucking Zoro! You were prepared to chop your own legs off and yet your worried about your sight?"
Zoro stared at him, surprised by the outburst of encouragement.
"Wow cook, never thought I'd say this but, good talk... Thanks" Zoro said as he looked towards where he thought Sanji was.
Sanji smirked, "Ha yeah... weird, were talking without death threats for once. Guess we're starting to get along better"
Zoro nodded, "Mhmm... it's kind of freaking me out." Sanji laughed, "Haha! Same! ...but it's kind of nice I guess. Less headaches."
Zoro couldn't help but chuckle, "Tch don't get used to it... just don't feel like fighting you blind."
Sanji scoffed, "'Cause you know I'll kick your ass?" Zoro glared (unfortunatly Sanji had moved from he was standing so Zoro was left sending his death-glare to a fork that had been left on the table).
"Baka." Sanji mumbled, now that he was right beside the swordsman, his comment spooked Zoro causing Zoro to jump. "Woah you okay?" questioned Sanji, Zoro's head whipped around to glare at him "DON'T DO THAT! JESUS!"
Sanji laughed, "Well maybe you would have noticed I moved it you weren't so preoccupied glaring at that poor, unsuspecting fork." Zoro's face went a nice shade of red.
"Shut the hell up" Zoro growled, Sanji only laughed harder "Whatever... okay I'm done cleaning up, lets go out on deck it's not often you find such nice days out here on the Grand Line."
Zoro sighed, "True... alright lets go." Zoro walked forwards only to bump into a chair and fall over and landing on his ass. He hissed in pain and irritation. Sanji sighed before grabbing Zoro's hand, "I'll help" he said flatly as he pulled Zoro back up.
Zoro grunted in response and the two headed out to the deck.
Okay lets see... this took longer than usual and was shorter than usual. Fuck.
