Sorry it took a bit longer than I planned, but here's the next chapter! I finally decided on the final plot ;; which might be showing as a stuff that finally has some meaning :D Or not. Oh well. And thanks for Rock Gecko for beta reading! Chocolate chip muffins for ya!

'Who's moving where?'

After a lot of fighting, a lot of shouting, almost getting lost, and a lot of pouting (the last part only done by Sanji) they were finally on the side of the school where they could find someone to have a look at the blonde's back.

'Dr. Hiruluk' said the small sign beside the door. Knocking, Zoro let them know that they were coming and when there was a 'Come in' answer he opened the door.

The room was white, and it smelled like a hospital. It had one desk for the doctor himself, and a bed on the other side of the room, lots of small tables with...some doctor things on them and a bookshelf near the only window at the furthest wall.

"Come and sit down! How can I help you? My name's Dr. Hiruluk.". the strange looking man said, not getting up from the chair where he was sitting on beside his desk. There were many papers, but they didn't seem to be in any important order, then there was computer and a small plant thing.

Zoro nodded, and dragged Sanji to the bed since there seemed to be no other chairs in the room. They both sat down, and when Zoro saw that the blonde wasn't going to say anything, he sighed and started to explain why they were there.

"Well...I don't exacly know what's wrong, but it has something to do with his back. He kinda...hurt it and well..it hurts!", Zoro said not knowing how to form his sentenses since everything he said seemed to sound so wrong! What would you think when two boys came to you and said that the other's back was hurting! He hadn't thought this out clearly enough before they had come here.

Sanji shifted slightly beside him, but didn't say anything. Hiruluk just blinked and then stood with a cheeky smile.

"Well that's something in my wife's area. I just wonder where she is. She loves this kind of cases!", he said and laughed in a strange way.

At that moment the door opened again, and an even more strange looking woman walked in. She had a doctor's jacket on her, but it was open and she wore tight jeans and t-shit. Something that a teenage girl would wear.

"Well well! What have we here?", she asked lifting her sunglasses to her forehead and looking at the two boys sitting on the bed.

"Ah there you are! We were just going to call you. I think that you could take care of this problem. I think he has strained his back.", Hiruluk said pointing at Sanji. The woman looked at Sanji's eyes for a moment, making the blonde feel nervous under her gaze. Normally he would be 'fanboying' over women, but this woman looked...like 200 years old at least. And she was scary.

Then suddenly the woman took a few long steps towards them and pushed Zoro out of the way as she turned Sanji around and made him lie on the bed facedown. She rolled her sleeves up with a strange grin on her face.

"Don't worry, this wont hurt...much! Oh and you can call me Doctorine." Then without warning she hit Sanji's back at a few points with her hand, making the blonde bite his tongue, so as to not shout out in pain. And making Zoro wince as he was watching it. He almost felt bad for taking Sanji here...but just almost. They had to show that back to a doctor.

Doctorine pulled back after twisting Sanji into a different painful postition, and clapped her hands 'clean'. "Now he just needs a little bit rest. And some painkillers...", she added as an after tought and then walked to one of the small tables and searched for said painkillers.

Sanji was still biting his now bleeding lip, and tears had started to gather in the corner of his only visible eye, and probably in the other one too, but he wasn't going to cry! At least not in front of Zoro. The green haired youth already thought of him as girly and he wasn't going to give him another reason to laugh at him.

"...thanks...", Zoro said to Doctorine, blinking and not knowing if the treatment had made any good to Sanji's health. He walked to the blonde and helped him up in sitting position. He gently wiped the tears away with his thumb, not laughing at all. That was a pleasant surprise to the blonde.

"Found them!", Doctorine shouted victoriously as she had obviously found the painkillers and went to get a cup of water to drink with the pill. Then she walked to Sanji and Zoro with quick and long steps, somehow successig in twisting herself through all the small tables without falling down even once. Had Zoro forgot to mention that the little tables in the room where scattered around? No? Well they were. Like a tornado had attacked there at some point.

Zoro took the cup and the pill and thanked the doctor again. It wasn't everyday you heard the great Roronoa Zoro thanking the same person many times in less than half an hour.

"Can you swallow this?", Zoro asked the blonde that had now somehow succeeded in wiping the rest of the tears away, and was now eyeing the pill in Zoro's hand in a way that clearly told the greenhaired youth that Sanji didn't like to take medicine. Sighing he prepared himself for the battle that was sure to erupt soon and tried once more give the pill to the blonde. But after getting a shake of the head and firmly sealed lips as an answer he sat to the bed beside the other and took hold of his nose, pinching it to prevent any air through it and yanked Sanji's mouth open. Then he threw the pill in and some water after it, and before the other could spit it out he used his other hand to keep his mouth shut. Sanji's only visible eye widened when he realized that he couldn't get any air before he would swallow the damn pill, and after a proud battle against the need of air he finally did so, and Zoro let go of him.

"Now there, was that so bad?", Zoro asked smirking, clearly enjoying the pout he got as an answer from the other. But then he had a 'normal' expression on him again and without noticing it, placed his hand on Sanji's which was on the bed.

"Can you walk all the way back home?", he asked in voice that had a little bit of worry mixed in it, and it made Sanji's heart flutter just a bit, but then he destoyed the 'perfect' moment by continuing: "Or do I have to carry you again?" The smirk was back again in it's place, and Sanji's expression had turned into something that clearly said 'you can't be for real...'

Dr.Hiruluk was grinning, but the look that his wife gave him stopped him from throwing any comments in.

"I can walk fine by myself, thank you!", Sanji said and stood up, only to cry in pain and slump to the ground, or he would've slumped to the ground if Zoro wasn't there to take hold of him before that happened. Sanji didn't say anything, but a faint shade of red was rising to his cheeks. He didn't want to admit it, but he needed help from the marimo head.

"I can see that. Well now that you can walk so well. Up we go!", Zoro said in cheerful voice as he picked up Sanji for like... the tenth time already. He turned, giving a nod to the doctors - who were just smiling in their own twisted ways - holding the squirming blonde in his arms in bridal style, just to annoy the other further. He picked up their bags before starting their walk back home.

"How many times do I have to say that I didn't give you permission to carry me! I will crawl if I can't walk! Just let me down!", Sanji hissed like an angry cat, tugging at Zoro's shirt since it was the second best option after kicking, and he couldn't kick the big marimo.

"Can't you accept the fact that people are caring about you! So shut your dirty mouth before I'll shut it for you!", Zoro said slowly starting to get irritated and a huge headache from all the shouting. But it was really effective on Sanji, and he silently accepted that he had lost the fight. Swallowing he relaxed and leaned his head against Zoro's shoulder, feeling the blush raising to his face again. Fortunately for them there was no one on the school yard when they left, since the classes had already started again. The whole trip was quiet, except for some poor excuses for starts of conversations. The others would still be in school for at least another hour, so they would be having long silent and relaxing moment at home. Or that's what they tought. When they arrived at the front door, they noticed that it was left slightly open.

Zoro placed Sanji back on the ground, and then opened the door, preparing to face who ever was in there. Was it a burglar or someone else that wasn't supposed to be there? There was nothing strange in the hall, so they continued their way towards living room, Zoro walking in front of the limping Sanji who was right behind him. They moved to stand beside the wall next to the door that led to the living room, and heard faint noises. Zoro looked back to Sanji, who nodded to him, and gave him the umbrella he had grabbed from beside the front door. Zoro looked at the 'weapon' he now had and sweat dropped. Well it was better than nothing. Preparing himself he then jumped in front of the doorway and pointed to the living room with the umbrella, shouting 'STOP!' to the person that was in there.

It took a moment before Zoro realized who was sitting there on their couch, examining the flower pot that had been on the small table between the couch and TV.

"Hello Roronoa-san. I didn't know that you live in here.", the dark haired woman said smiling in a friendly, but suspicious way. Sanji peeked into the living room too and gasped silently when he noticed who it was. Almost at the speed of light, without any traces of pain, Sanji was there kneeling in front of the woman, taking one of her hands and kissing it softly.

"For what do we owe the honour of having a fine lady like youself in our small and humble cabin?", he asked looking into the almost ice blue eyes of the one and only woman who they had just met in school halls, just a few hours ago. The woman just kept smiling, gently pulling her hand away and then placing the flower pot back on to the table.

"I heard that you had room to rent.", she said moving her eyes to Zoro now.

"Eh..room? Oh that room! Well sorry, I got here first and--"

"Would you like a cup of tea? Or coffee perhaps? With some cookies?", Sanji asked ignoring Zoro, and directing all his attention to the stunning woman he was seeing.

"Maybe some coffee, thanks.", the woman said leaning back on the backrest of the couch, not looking at the love sick blonde at all.

"Of course, my queen!", Sanji said and was in the kitchen in seconds. He stopped by Zoro and glared at him in murderous way.

"Don't do anything to irritate her! Am I clear?", Sanji hissed, not listening to the possible answer that Zoro would have given when he was already out of sight.

There was a short moment of silence, before the woman decided to break it.

"So you live here together?", she asked with the same smut smile on her face that told that she knew something that you didn't. Zoro glared at her leaning on the door frame.

There's few others too.", he said simply. The woman nodded, and mouthed 'oh', before starting to look at all the items in the room again. As if she really was interested in some of them. Especially the flower pot that was in the table. That seemed to catch her attention from time to time.

"How did you get in here?", Zoro then asked, needing to know. The woman turned to smile at him.

"The door was open, so I decided to come in.", she said. Zoro didn't really believe her, but it didn't bother the dark haired woman. Zoro was sure that he had locked the door in the morning, so she was lying to him with a smiling face. Before the wonderful and active conversation could go any further Sanji came back carrying a cup of coffee and a small plate with cookies and other tiny sweets.

"Here you go.", he said placing them on the table in front of the woman. She thanked him and took the coffee, silently sipping it.

"It's delicious.", she said that smile still on her face, which made Sanji noodle dance himself into one of the armchairs. For a few minutes they just sat and stood there, listening to the faint sound of munching as the woman tasted some of the cookies. Then it all was suddenly broken by the front door opening.

"Zoro! Is Sanji-kun still alive?", Nami asked shouting from the front door. Zoro looked over his shoulder to the door noticing that Vivi had come with the ginger haired girl. Nami stopped to look Zoro in the eyes when he didn't answer. "What?"

Zoro just pointed into the living room, and got out of the way when the girls walked past him into the said room. They looked at the dark haired woman for a while, and then Nami stepped forwards.

"Who are you?", she asked eyeing Sanji who had now broken out of his daydreaming state and looked at Nami and then to the floor, feeling like a punished puppy for some reason. Nami just had that effect on guys.

"My name is Nico Robin. I came here to ask for the free room you were renting.", the woman said now looking at Nami and Vivi like she had been looking at that vase just a while ago. She had placed the coffee cup back on the table.

"Sorry, I got that already.", Zoro said, still staying behind the girls, feeling suspicious about this woman. He wouldn't get too close just to be sure that he wouldn't get fooled if something happened in here.

"Oh. Is that so? What a shame. Well, I think I'll just have to go somewhere else to live.", Robin said clipping her handbag shut and standing up. Zoro and Vivi could almost hear the calculator beeping in Nami's head, and then the loud ringing voice which meant that Nami had an idea where she would be getting money.

"Well...we could always arrange a room for you...How much would you be raedy to pay for the room?", Nami asked, the evil-money-hungry-witch-mode turning on.

"I'm not poor by any means, and I really need an apartment. I could even pay double the price."

CLING!

"Of course you're welcomed to live with us, Nee-sama!", Nami cooed to Robin, and then turned to death glare at Zoro. "Oi, Zoro. I wont be throwing you out, but pack your stuff and move in with Sanji.", she said in the voice that left very little space for longer conversations.

"But...!! I! He!", Zoro stuttered. This came so quickly.

"Just do it or you'll be paying triple rent...", Nami said in a deathly voice, and then smiling happily she pulled Vivi with her so they would get to know this woman further. Zoro was left gawking. Staring after the ginger haired money crazy witch. She had no power to do something like this! Sanji too looked like he wanted to disagree, but Nami-swan had said so...so then it would have to be done. Even if he would have to live with the marimo head from now on... How bad it would be? This couldn't get worse...

"Oh, and remember to shut the windows before night. The weather is going to get really ugly, even though the forecast said it would be calm."

It just did get worse...

And what Sanji meant by that last tought, you'll be seeing in next chapter -heart- oh the possibilities of having those two in same room! But I bet that you all have better ideas than I XD Oh well, review. They're my food and I die without food.
