Review from last time:

"ZORO!"

Suddenly Nami and Zoro pulled apart quickly and jumped up to their feet as they looked at the doorway in horror. There stood Robin, looking horrified at what she'd just walked in on.

"Robin, I… I can explain," said Zoro, only to have her hold up a hand to stop him.

"Explain what, the fact that you were just kissing Nami," Robin said sharply as her looked turned from horrified to anger. "You know I told myself I could handle this, I could handle the fact you've slept with her, I could handle the fact you had a daughter with her. But I was wrong, and now this, now you kiss her. That's the final straw for me Zoro." Her voice was bitter and caused him to flinch at her words.

"Robin, please it was an accident we fell off our seats and…." Nami tried to explain feeling horrible that they were suddenly in this position only to stop when Robin shot her a death glare.

"No, I don't care what the circumstances or anything was Nami, I just care about the fact the man I love was kissing another woman, and you being that other woman no doubt," Robin spat, "I should have known, I just should have all the signs were there for me that this might happen. The way he acted when we first discovered you were gone, when I found that stupid old bracelet of yours in his room." Nami's eyes widened as she listened to Robin her eyes flashing once to Zoro's face that had gone from horror to a stone cold look. Robin looked at Zoro also and frowned, "And you, claiming to love me. I should have known what I was getting into. How foolish I was." Then with the surprise of all Robin's hand reached up and smacked Zoro across the face before she turned in a huff and ran from the room tears streaming from her eyes.

Nami turned to Zoro then feeling awful now, she couldn't believe that she was the cause of their fight and felt horribly guilty. "Zoro I'm sorry," she said her voice a soft whisper, "I didn't mean for…"

"Save it," he said turning to look at her, "It was bound to happen I should have known better. Should have figured there was no way she would be ok with me having a kid and all that by someone else. She's right this was just the icing on the cake for her." He sighed and shook his head then and turned leaving the room with his thoughts. A part of him longed to go after Robin and talk with her, get her to forgive him. But the other half of him said it was too late, and for some reason or another he found he didn't want to have to apologize for kissing Nami. Because he wasn't sorry for it, not one bit.

Nami sighed as she sat in her room pulling together her things she'd made it her decision to take Star and leave the ship at least for a while till things settled with Robin if they ever did. Or it at least reached a point where they could talk to each other comfortably about the whole situation. She knew there were plenty of boarding houses on the island where the two of them could stay and her mind was scanning out the possibilities. Though it did start to wonder and fall back on Robin's words, what had she meant by an old bracelet of Nami's in Zoro's room? Why would he have a bracelet of her's? She tried to think that maybe he'd found it somewhere on the ship or something and had forgotten it in his room but she knew that would be a little odd. When it hit her, that morning when she had fled from his room, she had put on one of her bracelets loosely and had lost it. She hadn't looked for it because it hadn't been too expensive or anything, in fact it had been just a cheaply made chain bracelet. But the bracelet was the lesser of her thoughts as she turned towards the way Robin had said Zoro acted when they found out she had left all those years ago.

Nami was unaware of the fact she had stopped packing up her things or the fact that Star had left the room and had wandered out into the hallway. Making her way down it, opening any doors she could in a chance to explore the ship better. Much to her delight she ended up finding the dark unlit pantry and made her way inside. Only to have the door shut on her leaving her in total darkness. Star was afraid and began to whimper as she searched for the door again but couldn't find it. "Mommy, Daddy," she cried out as tears began to run down her face. Her little hands reaching out in front of her searching for anything they could. "Mommy, Daddy," she called out again as her hands made contact with a wall and she began to beat against it hoping it was the door she had found.

Zoro was walking down the hallway running a hand through his hair in slight frustration. After a while of thinking he finally had decided he should at least try to speak with Robin, it was his fault he'd caused her pain. However, he paused as he heard tiny pounding sounds coming from the wall. Curious as to what it was he began to look around for the room where the noise was originating from. Placing his ear against the wall he lightly tapped back and called out. "Hello."

Inside the dark room Star was growing tired from pounding the wall and crying when she heard a faint noise on the other side. "Daddy," she cried out hoping she would be heard. On the other side Zoro faintly made out the sound of a tired little voice and instantly gripped the first door handle he could reach yanking the door open allowing the hall light to flood into the darkened room. He could hear a little gasp followed by a whimper as he looked around and found her. Star was sitting on the floor, exhausted, her tiny little hands softly continuing to knock on the wall. He frowned, how long had she been here? Why hadn't Nami noticed she was missing? He walked over to her picking her up, Star looked up at her father her eyes were tired and she let out a yawn.

"Daddy," she said softly, automatically shifting herself in his arms to rest against him as she closed her eyes.

"I'm here," Zoro said softly carrying her out of the room and back towards Nami's room, annoyance filling him at the thought the woman hadn't noticed their child gone. When he got there he found the door wide open and Nami standing starring out the window, he laid Star on the bed where she curled up on her side. He was about to tell Nami off when she turned around to face him and he stopped. Her eyes were puffy and red rimmed like she had been crying she looked down at the bed at Star then back at him.

"Where did you find her?" she asked.

"The Pantry, she must have gotten stuck in there earlier from wondering around the boat or something, she was exhausted when I found her." He answered still watching her. Nami nodded and sighed.

"I couldn't find her, I was afraid," she whispered, adverting her eyes from him as she sniffed and wiped a stray tear from her cheek. "I never thought to check the pantry I looked everywhere else but there." She mumbled and began to plainly cry. "I'm a horrible person I couldn't even find my own daughter." Zoro frowned as he listened to her, this was very unlike Nami. He walked across the room to her then and without thinking for the second time that day he placed his arms around her as she moved and sobbed into his shirt.

"You're not a horrible person," he said with a sigh. She shook her head.

"Yes I am, I've messed everything up. First I don't tell you about Star, then I get you and Robin broken up because I kissed you, and now I lost Star and I couldn't find her you had to, You rescued her again and I just…I.." Nami broke out into sobs again and Zoro's frown deepened.

"Oi, Nami listen to me," he said pulling her away from him only to gently place his fingers beneath her chin to lift her face to look at him. She sniffed and wiped at the tears on her face as her large brown eyes met his dark ones. "First of all, you were frightened to tell me about Star, you were afraid how people might react to that fact, second she's my daughter, I'm going to rescue her when she needs it that's my job, you made a simple mistake in not being able to find her but at least I did and that's what matters. And Finally, Nami don't blame yourself for me and Robin breaking up, I…it was coming I could tell. Things haven't been the same between us for a long time now. Also I was the one who kissed you and you know what.." he said with a pause suddenly moving his face closer to hers. She froze, her breath catching in her throat as she looked at him.

"What?" she asked softly.

"I don't regret it in the least," he said pulling away so quickly from her it left her stunned as he turned back and left the room then.

Author's Note: Yes new chapter. I might have had the characters a little OOC in this so for that I must apologize. However, tell me what you liked, what you hated, what you want to see in the story. Just READ AND REVIEW. Thank you.
