Aquamarine

"This one?"

"Usopp, that's identical to the one you got Kaya. No."

"Zoro! How about this one?"

"Luffy, that diamond's about the size of her head. Besides the fact that I can't afford it, she wouldn't be able to lift her hand."

"Sanji-kun, aren't these the earrings I was looking at the other day?"

"Nami! We're not here for you! You're supposed to be helping me choose an engagement ring!"

"Zoro, look!"

"Chopper, that's nice, but I don't think she'd appreciate a mood ring."

Zoro was at his wits end. How could choosing the right engagement ring for Robin be so damn difficult? Whenever he saw a nice one, it was way out of his price range. Either that or it was just a terrible ring. Who the hell designed some of these anyway?

He wandered around some more, and after a few minutes, he saw it.

It was on a stand in the far corner of the shop. Far away from the huge rocks that adorned all the other rings. "This one. This is the right one." He said. The rest of them came rushing over and stared at it. "It's beautiful, Zoro." Nami said in a hushed voice. "It reminds me of Robin-chan for some reason, I can't seem to put my finger on it though..." Sanji said, puzzled.

"Her eyes." Zoro replied with a smile. The ring he had chosen was a silver band with a round Aquamarine gemstone on it, around the gem were a few tiny diamonds, which made it sparkle even more. The shade of blue the stone had was the exact colour of Robin's eyes, and Zoro knew it was perfect.

Thankfully, the ring was affordable, and he walked out of the jewellery store feeling proud. "Now for the hard part, Marimo." Laughed Sanji, clapping him on the shoulder.

He had never been more nervous in his entire life.

Aww Zoro, don't be so nervous, we all know she's going to say yes! ^_^

In contrast to that trainwreck of a last chapter, I'm really happy with this one! I hope you all enjoyed it too.
