Summary: Luffy randomly thinks about grass which leads to thinking about his first mate, Zoro.

Luffy sat on the deck while watching the grass move along with the breeze.

"Grass." Luffy randomly thought. "Who named it that? Why is grass so… Grassy? Why is it green? It reminds me of Zoro's hair. I guess that's why Sanji calls him 'moss head' most of the time. Wait, is moss grass? Eh, whatever. I wonder if Zoro's hair feels like grass. I'll find out later. Speaking of Zoro…. I'm glad he decided to join my crew. Who knows what could've happened if he stayed in that marine base. Anyway, he's always sleeping. It is annoying but I can't do anything about it. Besides forcing him to play tag along with everyone else. I wonder how he learned to fight with three swords. I can't even use one. It must've taken him a while to learn… Oh, he's coming! I'm going to see if his hair is like grass!"

Luffy stood up and ran over to him.

"Zoro, can I feel your hair?" Luffy asked simply.

"What the…? What kind of question is that?!" Zoro answered with a question.

"Does it feel like grass?" Luffy asked.

"Again, what kind of question is that?!"

"Your hair is green like grass so I want to know if it actually feels like grass."

"No, it does not… Don't touch my hair! Go away!" Zoro said running away from Luffy who chased after him.

"It feels like moss!" Luffy said chasing after Zoro.

"Shut up, you moron!"


Poor, Zoro. XD I enjoyed doing this chapter.

Review, please! :D
