Duduuunnnn! The next chappie~! This is leading up to the final chapter~!

Robin: The next next chapter is the last?

Yes! unless I add a little extra in... don't know yet, though. I'm still debating on whether or not I should.

Robin: We could leave that up to the viewers at the end of the next chapter.

Good idea!

Kaya: Seems like Nami will be happy with the next chapter.

Hopefully, she has been pretty anxious for it... It's like she knows I'm going to post it in every long chapter story about these two!

Kaya: You kind of do...

Oh... Well, anyways~! I hope you all enjoy!


My Personal Cheerleader

Routine 12: What Does That Spell?

Don't even ask me about my healing process. It was horrible. You want hear it? Alright, here goes:

Saga helped by cooking up things and tried to help me with my troubled mind. Eventually he dropped it when I finally began to ignore the topic. Luffy was worried about me the whole time. The cheerleading squad came over to cheer me up. Literately, they did a cheer and wanted to put me into the spirit. I think they cheered me up more when they left, but I was not saying that. Luffy went through a lot of trouble and so I acted like it was very enjoyable. Nami began to come over after school to talk to me like I was four and had no knowledge on how to take care of myself. I warned her that if she touched me again that I would be tearing out hair.

It was finally Saturday and I was healed to the point of not opening my wounds. I moved around to get motion back into me. Saga left to go hang out with Johnny and Osaka, promising to be back to grab me and go out. Luffy promised Nami that he was going to stay over at her house because of the cheerleading sleepover. I told him not to worry; I was going out with Saga anyways. He kept saying he would stay, but I finally convinced him to keep his promise.

I slept until noon, so I might as well eat something. I checked my phone on the way to the kitchen, after using the restroom, and saw a missed call. I look to see it say Luffy before I pushed call. I heard him answer while shushing the other girls.

"I hope this is not going to be an every hour call." I stated out to him and he giggled out before shouting.

"I'm on the phone! Don't hit me with the pillow!" I chuckled at his shout before he whined at me. "It's not funny, Zoro! I was just checking up on you. I promise I will only call once more and if you don't answer then I won't call again." He informed before chanting was in the background, I didn't catch it all, but it made Luffy flustered. "Quit it, girls!"

"Well, I am fine. Now, go have fun!" I told him as I pulled out a pop tart and began munching on it after getting the wrapper off.

"I know, Zoro! Talk to you later, kay? Byes!" I chuckled at him before pulling away the phone.

"Bye, Luffy." I stated back before ending the call. I stared at my phone screen as it showed Luffy and me grinning towards the phone as he took the picture skillfully. It made me smile as it took him a full thirty minutes to convince me to do it. If I checked last, he had the same background as me.

I sat down on my couch while staring at the TV blankly as it was talking about something going on during World War II. I finished off my pop tart and just stared at the coffee table. Sitting on this couch brought back so many memories that were too sweet to let it linger. My hand lingered along a cushion as I remembered that night. I wanted it to happen again, but that meant something deep down.

I didn't want Luffy because of that night only, I wanted him. I wanted his laughter that never quit and only made you join in with him. Not to mention his ongoing grin that was contagious and would cheer you up pretty quickly. Don't forget his vicious side that slapped every jock, even though only six did it. Then there is that extreme personality of his that made you want more of it.

There was nothing missing from him. That night made something click in me. Our bodies, they always mashed together perfectly, whether he was tackling me or I was holding him up. He never leaves my mind in the day or night. I don't even want to say how many dreams I have of us. Some of those dreams turned steamy and I never thought that my hand and I could be anymore closer than before.

I think… I think I know what I feel now.


"Alright, why did I have to rush over here?" I looked over my couch to Saga as he seemed out of breath.

"I didn't mean right away." I told him as I relaxed on my couch with a lighter heart.

"I just dropped off the twins and was at my house showering." I noticed the wet hair and pointed towards the hall. He merely nodded at me as he soon went over to get a towel.

"Well, I hope what I am about to tell you will cheer you up." I told him while watching him put his hair up in a towel like a girl. Eyebrows went up in interest as he came over to sit in a chair.

"Well, fess up! I drove over here in mid-shower to hear this important, urgent news!" He waved his hands at me as he wanted to know.

"I'm in love with Luffy." I fessed up and it took a second in his mind before he began to grin.

"Oh my god!" He stood up and jumped up and down in front of me. "I knew it! I knew it!" He began shouting and I stood up to calm him down. "Have you told him yet?" He asked out in anticipation.

"Not yet. He's at Nami's house. Maybe I should call him." My hand went to my pocket, but he stopped me and grinned up.

"Be more romantic! Drive there and tell him in person!" He told me while grabbing my shoulders. "I'm sure he would like it that way better!" His advice was very good and I grabbed his shoulders before hugging him.

"Thanks, Saga!" I pulled away while slipping on my boots and quickly lacing them. "I owe you for this!" I told him as I never laced boots so fast in my life.

I grabbed my helmet and keys, wallet finding my pocket, before running into my garage. I jumped onto my bike and started it up. I kicked back the stand and slipped my helmet on. I looked to the doorway to see thumbs up as the garage door was opening. I nodded at him and began backing out and moving to the end of my drive and looking out on the street before driving off. I tried to follow the speed limit on the roads, but my heart was racing. I never felt so strong in the heart and I couldn't wait to tell him. My spirit held high as I soon pulled up at the Nico residence and made sure to rev my engine out.

I cut off the bike and put the stand down. I heard a commotion leave the front door before Luffy appeared outside and began approaching me. I got off and took off my helmet.

"Zoro?" He asked out and I tossed my helmet down before grasping him by the waist. "Zo-mn!" I cut him off with a kiss to his lips and felt fingers grip my shirt. I heard shouts from the girls before pulling away. I got a red face up at me and I cupped a flushed cheek.

"I love you." I smiled down at him as I saw eyes widen up at me before he grinned up.

"Oh! I love you too!" His arms wrapped around my neck as he met me for a kiss.

"Awwwww!" I heard the girls by the door and we pulled apart as Luffy kept the blush and turned back to stick his tongue out. I chuckled out and they began to giggle before Nami rushed them inside and gave us a glance.

"What took you so long?" I looked to brown eyes and let a hand rub my neck.

"I think it was because of that bad little session with the jocks." I let my eyes go up in wonderment and he snorted at my answer. I returned my hand to his cheek and sighed out. "I have never felt myself love someone so much before, I guess I was… sort of, frustrated. I couldn't figure out what was going on with me." I told him and he kept his hold around my neck. "Finally, my mind clicked as I began to think about it and came to this conclusion."

"I'm glad you did. I was afraid I pushed myself onto you." He frowned up at me and I smiled at him before lightly kissing his lips. I pulled back to see a flustered face.

"Nah, I think it was a good shove." I winked at him and he giggled at me. "Who would have guessed…?" I mentioned and he raised an eyebrow at me. "That I am dating a cheerleader."

"Now that you mention it, you hate cheerleaders…" He told me and I chuckled.

"Yeah, but I can make an exception." I kissed his lips and he pushed into it as we held onto each other. His lips felt smooth against mine and I couldn't help myself as I licked at them. A disgruntled noise left his throat before opening his mouth. I deepened the kiss as my tongue explored the familiar hot cavern. After more exploring, I pulled back to give us a breather.

"You have your own personal cheerleader now." He told me with a light pant added at the end. I put my forehead against his while looking at him.

"I guess I do… but try not to cheer me to death…" I told him and he punched my chest. "Ow!" I began laughing out while he lightly pouted at me.

"Well, I don't only cheer! I can do some amazing stunts! I am also very flexible!" His eyebrows did two little jumps up and I chuckled at him. My lips lay right above his as I paused right there.

"Don't make me take you now." I pulled back to see a flushed face and he punched at me again. "Hey!" I began laughing and he soon grabbed my shoulders and jumped up. Legs wrapped around my waist and he looked down at me.

"You have to kidnap me first!" he told me and I raised an eyebrow.

"Nami will get mad." I informed him and he giggled out before placing a chaste kiss on my lips.

"Since when did you become afraid of her?" He crossed his arms next and I smirked at him.

"Never." I wrapped my arms around his waist and he let go to get down. I leaned down to grab my helmet and stuffed it on his head before dragging him to my motorcycle. "Let's go!" I shouted and jumped on and he got on behind me.

"Oi! Where you going?" Nami asked towards Luffy mostly and she got a wave.

"Sorry, Nami!" He shouted and I revved up the bike. Arms found my waist as I began to turn around in her driveway and drove out onto the street.
