I make my way up to the deck and I take in the warmth of the sun's rays. I feel a burst of new energy. I look to the look out nest and Zolo is he already nodding off. I smile up at the lazy Swordsman, but of course he doesn't see me.

"Hey, Chef you should hang up here for a while." Zolo yells from the look out nest.

Well I guess he did see me. Go figure! "Sure Swordsman I'll be there in a sec." I get to the ladder, but a hand on my shoulder stops me from climbing it. I turn to see Vivi.

"Go get him Sanji." She whispers and gives me a wink. I blush lightly and nod my head.

"Oh, you better believe I am gonna try." I whisper back and smile. "Thank you Vivi. I don't know where I would be without your advice."

"No need to thank me, I think you would have made the same decision without me. Now get up there Zolo's waiting."

"See ya soon." I start climbing and I get to the top in no time. I try and swing myself into the nest to try and impress Zolo, but I accidently lose my grip on the wood and I yelp in fear. But before I even start to fall I feel Zolo catch my hand in his and he pulls me into the nest. And with the force of the pull I find myself sprawled on top of him.

"Zolo are you okay?" I sit up and I don't really seem to notice that I am straddling his hips.

"Yeah, I am fine, but are you okay?" Zolo lifts up his right hand and starts caressing my cheek. I lean into the touch without a second thought.

"No problem here, but you seem to be saving me a lot lately. Thank you." I slowly almost hesitantly reach for the hand that is caressing my cheek and I take it into mine. I turn his hand palm side up and then I look into Zolo's eyes. He doesn't protest so I continue what I was doing. I never break eye contact while I bring the meaty part of the palm to my quivering lips and kiss it lightly.

"Sanji?" Zolo let's my name pass through his lips breathlessly. I feel a shiver run up and down my spine.

I continue my ministrations I kiss his palm again, but this time I bite it lightly over his pulse. I can feel his heart beat rapidly. His breath catches and I hear a low moan. It immediately rushes through my body.

"Zolo?" He looks at me and then to his then he blushes a sweet pink. I can't help, but notice that Zolo is breathing heavily and his lips are parted. Making him look unbelievably sexy.

Our eyes are still locked. Zolo starts to slowly get up. My mind is running a muck at this point. Oh, crap! Maybe I was wrong to do that. But those thoughts are completely squashed when he gently lifts me up like I weigh nothing and sets me on his lap.

"We can finally begin what we started last night." Zolo moves slowly making sure this is what I want. I don't even say a word. I close the gap between us.

The sensation of our lips meeting was even more delicious than my dream. It felt like a hunger was awakened inside me. Zolo's lips felt so soft and sensuous against mine. His tongue flicked across my lips and I granted him access. He seemed to be trying to memorize every part of my mouth and I loved the way it felt. Soon our tongues fought for dominance, his won. I was consumed with passion I could barely breathe. Oh, yeah breathing is something we haven't done for a while. We broke a part while panting for much needed air.

I looked up to see Zolo staring at me with such intensity that I blushed furiously. I have never been so turned on and that kiss . . . holy crap!

"Sanji I . . . ," But before he could finish what he was saying Nami called out "Land Ho."

"Hey you guys time start getting ready to dock." Usopp yells from the bottom of the ladder.

"What were you going to say Zolo?" I could feel my heart pounding and palms were getting really sweaty.

"Never mind, but we better get going before Nami yells at us for being lazy." Zolo smiled a bitter sweet smile.

"You're the only one who's lazy Swordsman."

"Hey I thought that I told you I am not lazy. It's just relaxing up here." Zolo starts poking my sides and I can't help, but wiggle and laugh. "We better get going though."

"Yeah, your right and don't tickle me." I start to get up from Zolo's lap, but he gently pulls me back down and starts to tickle me again.

"Oh, you mean like this." I laugh even harder and I push my face into Zolo's chest trying to stifle the laughter. He stops tickling me and slowly lifts my head and gives me a sweet chaste kiss, before helping me up.

I melted with sweet gesture. I have absolutely no idea what's going on, but I desperately hope that it lasts. I grab Zolo left and I bring his palm side up again and I kiss it. Zolo blushes lightly. It's so adorable that I lean up and kiss him on the lips. I pull away and we just look at each other for a moment.

"Sanji, will you meet me for dinner tonight?"

"Yes, I would love to, but what about me cooking for the crew."

"I think they can tide themselves over for one night."

"Okay I'll be there."

"Meet me by the ship at seven." Zolo kisses the top of my forehead and pulls me into a tight hug. I wrap my arms around him as tightly as I can. We reluctantly part.

"Seven it is then. Well I guess we better get ready to dock."

"Sanji, Zolo what were you two doing we're already done with everything." Nami says while walking up to us. Zolo and I are stilling climbing down the ladder.

"Sorry we lost track of the time and kind of dozed off." Zolo stands right next to me. I look up at the taller man and he winks at me. I blush and Nami takes notice.

"Sanji are you all right you're a little red." Nami comes closer to me and I stand my ground.

"Yes, I am fine just a little hot." I reach into my jacket pocket and pull out my cigarettes. There are only three left in the pack. Thank God that we are stopping at an island. I put the cigarette in my mouth without lighting it. "I better get started on lunch."

"Oh, Sanji you don't have to worry about making anything for dinner or lunch today just relax and enjoy yourself. We can eat at a restaurant when we reach land." Vivi comes up behind Nami with Karu in tow.

"Are you guys sure about lunch?" I look around at the whole crew.

"Yeah, of course I think we all need a break from our daily tasks and work." Vivi looks directly at me and gives me a knowing smile. I smile back in thanks.

"I totally agree." Luffy stands posed with both hands on his hips and his chest puffed out.

Nami hits Luffy directly on the head with a balled up fist. "What are you talking about you don't do anything?!"

Luffy massages his head with his straw hat still on. "Jeez, Nami do you have to hit so hard?" We all start laughing when a squabble breaks out between Luffy and Nami.

I feel some one tug on my arm. I turn around to see Zolo. I follow him off to the side.

"Do you want to hang out for a few hours before we go to dinner?" Zolo looks at me hopefully.

"I would love to."

"Great it looks like we're already at the island."

I look up and to my surprise, I already see the dock and beyond that is what looks like a productive town. It looks well-taken care of. I can feel the ship ease its way next to the dock with great precision and accuracy.

"Okay everybody lets find and Inn and then we can do whatever we want to do." Nami leads the way off the Merry-Go.

We quickly find a small, but rather peaceful Inn called the "Fish-Inn." Kind of a strange name if you think about, but as soon as you see all the fish trinkets and things around you get the idea. Despite all the fishy things the room I get is quite large with a Jacuzzi tub and shower. The bed is a king size. I drop my bag on the bed and I put my clothes in the closet. I quickly assess what I have to wear for tonight. I can't decide what to wear though. Before I have a chance to look over my clothes again, I hear a soft knock at the door. I close the closet door and I walk to the door. To my delight it's Zolo with his suit case. I raise an eyebrow in question.

"Hey Sanji I was wondering if I could stay with you?"

"Yeah, sure that's fine, but I thought you had a room down the hall?" My heart beat quickened and my stomach started to fill up with butterflies. I move aside to allow Zolo to enter the room. He sets his suitcase on a chair next to the dining table.

"I thought so too, but since I still owe Nami interest from money I didn't even spend and today was payment day so here I am. And I am not going to use the money for our dinner tonight thankfully she didn't get a hold of that." Zolo looks up at me from unpacking I look away quickly. For some reason I feel embarrassed and really happy.

"Zolo you don't need to use that money for dinner, I can make something."

"No, I want to do this and anyway you heard Vivi. It's time to relax." Zolo walks up to me and stands right in front of me.

"Yeah you shouldn't have a problem with that."

Zolo lightly punches my shoulder and we start laughing. I lay my head on his chest.

"Zolo what are we doing?" I wrap my arms around him. Fearing what his answer might be.

Zolo snakes his arms around me and puts his head on top of mine. "Hopefully starting a relationship. If you're comfortable with that of course."

"I want to. I definitely want to." I said a little too eagerly. I don't want to let him go and I won't.

I can feel his chest vibrating with laughter, "That's actually what I wanted to bring up earlier and tonight."

"Really? I wanted to ask you about that too. But I didn't know how to bring it up."

"You want to go look around?"

"Yeah, let me just go get changed real fast." Zolo pulls me into an embrace.

"You don't need to. You're gorgeous." Whoa! My cheeks feel like they are on fire. I bet if I touch them I would burn my hand.

"W-well if you don't think I need to." Why I am stuttering? But it feels so amazing to hear him say that. I can't believe not to long ago we could barely stand each other.

Zolo pulls back from our hug and interlaces our hands. "Ready to go." I nod my head. I am taken aback with how our hands seem to fit each other perfectly. It's like finding a missing piece to a puzzle. I've been with my share of people and have chased many a woman, but nobody ever seemed to fit right with me. I thought that person was Nami for a while, but soon discovered she was not. Although, I still think her and Vivi are beautiful. It's different with Zolo. We complete each other.
