AET – Alternate Ending #2: Libitina – During recovery – "Black Leg Sanji, Destroyer of Moods"~ ;3 ~Sanji shifted in his chair, looking around the dimly-lit infirmary aimlessly. "Listen, Zoro... I need to talk to you about something."
At the sound of his name, the swordsman lifted his head and looked over at Sanji, who he noted was leaning in quite close. "What?"
"It's something... important," Sanji breathed, and then lunged forward to grasp the startled swordsman's hands tightly.
Zoro's eyes widened and he stared at the blond. "What're you doing?"
"Zoro, listen, I..." Sanji took a breath, as if collecting his thoughts, and then went on, "While you were sick and we were spending so much time together I realized... that I have feelings for you."
Zoro stiffened. "Er, what... kinds of feelings?"
"Deep, moving feelings," Sanji said quietly, his gaze fixed on the swordsman.
"You mean...?" Zoro had about stopped breathing.
"Yes!" Sanji pulled the swordsman's hands to his chest and looked into the other's eyes intently. "Let's do it. Right now."
"Wait, what the--"
"On the floor, the table, wherever!" Sanji paused, then eyed the other man. "You all right with being the girl?"
The rest of the crew had no idea what prompted Zoro to throw Sanji off the ship at four in the morning, and really, they were all rather attached to life, so no one felt compelled to ask.
The end.
