It was getting late, so Zoro decided it was about time to go up to the crow's nest. Once he got himself settled on one of the benches, he couldn't help but be a little nervous. Would Sanji actually show up? He did not quite understand what came over him in the kitchen. As soon as Sanji confirmed he was a submissive, all rational thought went out the window. He won't deny that being with Sanji is something he's wanted for a while. He came to the conclusion that it would just never happen, since Sanji "hated" him. Now though… He doesn't know. It could go either way. They work something out and it's really good for both of them, or it just doesn't work at all. Either way he's up to the challenge. Now he just has to convince the cook it's a good idea, if the shitty cook would even show up. The swordsman decided to think about all this later and decided to take a nap. If Sanji will show up, time will tell.

Sanji was sitting by the kitchen table and he looked up at the clock above the oven. It was about 1am and the swordsman was surely up in the crow's nest by now. The whole night the cook had locked himself in the kitchen, trying to figure out his next move would be. He already decided that he would at least talk to Zoro, but beyond that, he had no idea. After a few minutes of Sanji mucking about the kitchen, he finally makes his way to the crows nest. He looks up to see that the hatch is already open. He's waiting… An open invitation… Fuck it! Sanji quickly makes his way up the latter and pokes his head above the hatch. He sees Zoro laying on one of the benches sleeping. The cook rolls his eyes and finishes climbing up.

"Hey! Wake up. How are you supposed to be on watch while you're sleeping?" Sanji growled as he lifted his leg to kick the sleeping swordsman. Just before he kick Zoro in the stomach a hand halted his foot. Zoro opened his one good eye and looked up to see the cook with a half annoyed, half flustered look.

Zoro clicked his tongue against his teeth and sat up, wiping sleep out of his eye. "What do you want cook?" he grumbled.

"What do I want? You know what, forget it. I'm going to bed." Sanji says in disbelief. Shitty swordsman. Making me come up here for no reason… The cook was about to start descending the latter when he heard Zoro speak.

"Wait! You came! Sorry, I was still half asleep. I forgot why you came up here." Zoro says with a laugh.

Unbelievable. Fucking idiot.

"You're an idiot, you know that?" Sanji so eagerly pointed out as he climbed back up and sat on the bench opposite of where Zoro was sitting.

"So are we gonna talk about this or what?" he complains.

Sanji takes out a cigarette and lights it. After he takes a few hits he replies. "Yea… I guess. I don't really know what their is to say though. Yea, I'm a submissive and if you say you're a Dom then that's, whatever. I just don't see how it could work between us. I mean, one we hate each other. Two, were namaka and we should not do anything to risk that. So if that's all, I think i'll take my leave..."

"Now hold on Cook. Aren't you a at least a bit interested? Were namaka, but I don't see how that matters in this situation. Me dominating you is not going to change that. Plus, I don't hate you Cook." Zoro retorts.

Sanji can't help but blush at the mention of Zoro dominating him. He's kept his cool so far, he can't break now. He was surprised to hear that the swordsman does not hate him though.

"You don't hate me? Impossible, You have always hated me!"

"No way Cook, You're the one who's always hated me." Zoro replies.

So we don't hate each other… huh…

"I don't. It's just… Wait! You're always fighting with me and saying stupid shit. So explain that?!" the cook says angrily.

Zoro shrugs. "It's fun."

Sanji runs his hand through his hair in frustration. Yeah, fighting with the swordsman can be fun, and down right playful sometimes, but what does this all mean.

"Look, I think we've gotten a little off topic but let me say this. I. Don't. Hate. You. I actually enjoy your company where you're not running your mouth or having nose bleeds everywhere. Even if you don't want to admit it, we are a lot alike in some ways. I think that a consensual sexual relationship with you would be a good idea. We both are into BDSM. So why not? I know I would enjoy it, and I am confident enough in my skills to make sure you enjoy it too." Zoro explains.

Sanji has an unsure look on his face so Zoro continues.

"Ok so how about this. We try it. Just one time, something not too extreme but something we would both enjoy. If either of us has a problem or doesn't like it, then we just forget about it. If we both end up liking it, we talk about it some more and set down some ground rules, yeah?" Zoro says hopefully. Say yes, Cook. Come on!

Sanji opens his mouth but then shuts it quickly. His face scrunched in concentration. Maybe one time wouldn't be bad… Just once and then when I we get to an island with a city I can find someone to have an intense session with. Fuck it, if I think about it too long i'll just change my mind.

"Only once right?" Sanji asks tentatively.

Zoro nods. "Yeah, but if we both like it, we should talk about doing it more often. I don't know about you, but having to wait every few islands to find someone to be with is annoying. Especially, with our tastes."

Sanji looks into Zoros eye and sends him a small smile. "Yeah, that's true... Um, ok. I'm up for it." He reply's, fidgeting nervously.

Zoro beams at the cook. Yes! Tonight is going to be a good night.
