Trap Set and Sprung

Kitty: Hey everyone sorry this update took forever. We couldn't get inspired to finish the story. Plus writers block can be such a pain. All those who have had it should know how I feel. Cries.

Monkey: Plus we just moved again so that made it really hard for us to get the computer up again. Or dad always makes it the first thing packed and the last thing set up at the new house.

Doggie: Now to all those who have waited to read this chapter it has finally come. Ohh and if anyone asked no it's not that well revised cuz we couldn't find another beta to read over it.

Kitty: We try to have about three different betas so that way if one missed a mistake the other ones might find it. Our first beta usually is one who reads the story for obvious mistakes.

Monkey: Our second reads to find if there is any problem with the flow of the story.

Doggie: And last, but not least our third beta reads and finds the difficult and much harder to find mistakes. At the time we wrote this chapter the beta reader's part wasn't working on fanfiction. Oh and we would like to make a thanks to one of our reviewers.

Te Inu Fighter- Thank you for reviewing all of our chapters. Your review is what makes us continue. We can't wait for another one and sorry that this story took so long to get updated. I'm going to try and add in the next chapter what is the deal with Nick's scar. Thank you so much for reviewing.

Kitty: Sorry if we rambled during our little beginning part we are kinda mad right now. Well we don't own any of one piece besides our characters that we made up. Ohh and those who are wondering when you'll find out about Nick, that will be soon. Bye and hope you enjoy the chapter. Please review if you do.

Sanji had left the room earlier and took care of Luffy, disarming the trap that was set up, he went back to sleep and ignored Zoro, who was still fuming about being woken up in the middle of the night. Nick had crawled back into bed, but was a little scared, he just knew that Luffy wouldn't give up that easily, yet he did. What was going on?

Nights were long for Zoro; he'd wake up and then attempt to fall asleep again for hours. Mornings were always best for him to sleep. Right now he was currently trying to fall back asleep after he got woken up to Nick throwing him into the door. Damn that brat.

'Might as well walk around for a bit.' He thought, getting to his feet and shuffling out the door. Taking a few steps he could have swearn he heard laughter around the corner. He moved out of the doorway and headed to the corner and felt a tug at his leg.

"What the fuck?!" He screamed as the tug forced him into the air and he was left dangling by one leg. "OWW, get back here you lowlifes." Zoro screamed and moved, swinging forward and backwards. The rope on his leg tightened, forcing more slack.

He continued to swing, resulting in more slack and the rope to get tighter. Not even realizing his mistake he swung forward and caused the rope to spin. "Whaaa!!" He screamed and then was slammed into the door, now in front of him, face first.

"Stop making that entire racket." Screamed someone from in the room. The voice was too much of a tenor sound to be Sanji's so he assumed it was Nick. "Shut up and help me out of this trap." He screamed back, head throbbing from being slammed into the door and also from blood rushing to his head.

"NO! Some people are trying to get some sleep." Nick screamed back. 'Great now I'm stuck like this. Dammit I wish I had one of my kantans to get me out of this mess. He started to get really bored of hanging and stared off into space. The blood rushing to his head was really starting to hurt and he felt dizzy, almost like he was going to puke.

The door opened in front of him, a half asleep Sanji walked out, looking down at the floor. Wham. He walked right into Zoro's head without even knowing he was there. "What the Hell?" Screamed Sanji as he looked up from the floor and rubbed his head and back. He had slammed into him with enough force to knock him into the ground.

"Who are you?" Asked a delusional Zoro. His head was spinning so much he could have thought there was two of…who ever this is. Damn I can't think.

"What are you talking about marimo head?" Sanji asked beyond confused right now. He stood up and looked at Zoro as if he was a moron. "What is your deal today?"

"Shuup." Zoro's words slur, making him sound drunk. "Yourrust a novody"

"I take it your brain couldn't handle being tormented by hanging upside down for 2 minutes." Sanji harshly remarked he stretched up to take the rope off of Zoro's leg and helping him down. The rope by now had cut the circulation to his foot pretty bad so it made it hard to take off.

"Dammit fucking piece of shitty rope." Sanji yelled frustrated now by how damn hard the rope was to get off. He finally managed to get one loop done when he noticed how bad it was. "Dammit, Zoro can't you do anything smart. You fucken tangled the rope up to where it won't come off easily." As he said the last part, by some miracle, the rope released from Zoro's ankle. He fell hard onto Sanji forcing the blonde on his back and Zoro on top of him. Both of them blinked confused and staring at each other. Get off me you fucken idiot." Sanji screamed.

Zoro was so out of it that he decided to shut the person underneath him up. He brushed his lips gently on Sanji's as a tingling feeling of electricity rushed from his lips to his lower regain, waking him from his delirium. Sanji was stunned and couldn't even talk as his eyes blanked and grew hungry for more, but Zoro didn't allow that, his stomach was finally protesting enough that he shot off of Sanji and threw up right into the trash can near the bedroom.

'Great he hated my kiss so much that he had to cleanse his stomach.' Thought Sanji, he got up off the ground and headed into the room, Zoro followed in suit after finally emptying his stomach, but as he neared the door it was slammed into his face and locked.

"What the?! Unlock this door already you asshole." Zoro banged on the door trying to get the bastards attention.

"Hell no, you can sleep in the hall for all I care." Sanji screamed he wasn't sure why he was pissed. This shouldn't even be bothering him, 'I mean for crying out loud Zoro is a guy and I'm full on lady's man.' He thought as he climbed in bed, still ignoring the loud Zoro banging on the door and demanding that he be let in. "Screw you." Screamed Sanji and shoved the pillow over his head so he couldn't hear anymore.

Zoro was pretty pissed now, he didn't even do anything and yet he was locked out of the room. What the hell gave Sanji the idea that he could randomly lock people out of their own room? Dammit why must I have stupid roommates who are selfish and won't let other people sleep?

He kept ranting in his thought until finally he fell asleep on the floor outside the door and dreamt of the kiss he had with Sanji. He couldn't resist the smell of cigarette smoke that wafted off of Sanji. Deepening the kiss, his tongue licked Sanji's lips begging for entrance. Moaning in his sleep he shifted to a comfortable position on the floor.

Nick was outside the room right now and watching as he saw Zoro dreaming about sex. He could tell when one does, his boyfriend Jeff also moaned like that when he dreamed of Nick. Slowly moving his hand to Zoro's check he brushed it lightly to wake him. He wasn't expecting to be yanked into an embrace and almost have a kiss planted on his lips. "Wake up jerk." He screamed and punched Zoro in the face.

Zoro tightened the embrace and glared at Nick. "What was that for?!" He demanded, not letting go of Nick at all.

"Let go of me." He screamed and tried to aim another punch at his face, but was stopped as Zoro claimed his wrist. "I said let go." Nick cried as he tried harder to struggle, he was starting to not like how this was going.

"What are you doing here and why are you punching me as I'm asleep." Zoro spoke trying to get a hand on what was going on.

'Damn he can be stupid.' Thought Nick. "Let go of me and I'll tell you what is going on." He demanded.

"Fine." Zoro releases his grip from Nick and pushes him off of him, causing Nick to stumble and land hard on his ass.

"Damn jerk, I was merely trying to save you from embarrassment and wake you up. But then you went all crazy and fucken grabbed me and almost kissed me. Gross."

"Shut up." Zoro yelled. He grabbed Nick's arm and yanked him up off the ground. "If you dare say this to anyone and I'll make sure you regret you were ever born." He threatened, not noticing the slight tremor in Nick.

"Too late there sword boy. I have regretted living for 3 years already." Nick started to walk but then felt the tugging on his wrist, meaning that the idiot over there still hadn't let go of him. "What do you want?" Nick asked. He was starting to feel emotionally drained and memories kept flooding back. Memories that he didn't want to remember or relive again. His hand moves to touch the slash on his left eye as he started to tremble.

"What is going on?" Zoro asked. He had never seen the look that Nick gave him now in anyone's eyes. It freaked him out; he always kept fighting even when life came at you hard. Yet this kid just gave up on everything, almost like his whole life and more was torn from him.

"Let go…please." Nick's emotions were unstable right now and he needed to leave before he did anything bad.

"No."

"Please." Nick yanked his arm, trying desperately to free it right now.

"No."

"Why won't you?" He screamed in panic.

"…" Zoro was stumped he couldn't understand why he cared, normally he'd just leave by now. He let go of Nick and headed into the now unlocked room to sleep.

Nick zoomed out of the hallway and into Jeff's room, hopeing to calm down. He knocked on the door, praying he was still awake.

"I'll be there in a minute." Answered a baritone voice. The voice sent shivers down his spine. Jeff was his life line when it came to him staying stable. Ever since the incident Nick had always been unstable. That was why not many people could stand him with the random changes in his attitude and personality. He was lucky that both Jeff and Sanji helped him out.

The door opened and a tall slightly built teen came out. He had short dirty blonde hair that spiked out in some places. His school uniform was still on him.

"Nick…It's the middle of the night silly. Do you need anything?" He asked with a smile on his face. Resulting in Nick smiling back.

"Sorta. I just kinda panicked." Nick said sheepishly. He leaned into the wall next to the door, Jeff may have loved Nick but his roommate couldn't stand him.

"You want me to take you back to your dorm?" Jeff asked as he moved out of the doorway and closed it.

"A-and stay with me?" Nick lowers his head and starts to fidget. He twisted a strand of his hair.

"Of course I will." Jeff moves off the wall and yanks Nick with him. "I'd do anything for you. Even chase away your nightmares." He said and then kissed the scar over Nick's eye.

"Thank you. You always know what to say in order to calm me down. I love you." Nick looked happily at Jeff. "Now can we go back to my dorm?"

Jeff walks hand in hand with Nick down the hall, heading to the dorm. Opening the door he led Nick to his bed and cuddled into it with him. Nick placed his head on Jeff's chest and slipped into a peaceful, nightmare free, sleep.

Kitty: AWWWW!! Sorry we couldn't help ourselves. Don't worry though the main pairing will be together soon. I hope. It all depends on how this story goes.

Doggie: Please review the chapter. We really need some inspiration cuz we are at a loss of what to do next. This stories plot has changed soo much and then random things keep getting put into it.

Monkey: Also we are currently looking for a Beta. We have asked about 5 people and no one has emailed us back saying they will beta this. It makes it really hard to get a chapter up.

Kitty: We will accept up to about 2 betas to help us with typos and see if it fits at all in places. Thank you.
