"Did you see them?" she muttered, her voice slightly nervous.

"Yeah." he responded calmly, taking another sip of his beer before glancing at her. "I did."

All Zoro wanted was a little time to relax with a good drink, and so as the night arrived, he found his way to a local bar at the island they were visiting. Nami had followed him, claiming to be stressed by the idiots and needing some time without them to get ride of the stress. Alcohol would help to archive that goal too.

Zoro didn't mind her, she was a good drinking companion, she knew about alcohol and had a tolerance that could even rival his! Plus, he had no money. But the real issue was with the other two people they spotted at the bar.

From their seats on the bar stools, they could clearly see those two at the booth on the other end of the room, drinking a glass of red wine with apparently no worries on their heads.

"The giraffe and the soap chick... do you think they're on a date?"

"That's not the issue here, you moron!" replied Nami madly, yet keeping her voice down in order to keep attention off herself. "God, what are they even doing here? They'll start a fight with us and break the whole place! Did you know there's a marine base in this island? We need to leave tomorrow morning!"

"I thought those guys had died at Enies Lobby. Weird."

"Are you even listening?"

"Fine witch, we'll just leave the bar. Happy?"

"Yes, please."

"Oh, you're leaving already?" the bartender asked as Nami handed him a couple of beris. "Date's over?"

"This isn't a date." they both stated simultaneosly. Of course, they looked away when they said it at the same time.

"We're just friends, nakama, that's all."

"Y-yeah, where did you get that stupid idea?"

"Keep telling yourself that. You're not my first costumers and you won't be the last." the man laughed. "Drop by sometime soon. Have a good night."

"Bye." said Zoro, turning around, but he was tackled by Nami before he could get away any further. "Hey, what was that for?"

"You can't just go away like that! They'll see us!"

"Oh, so how do you expect us to get away? Crawling?" he snorted.

Nami rested her fingers in her chin, meditating. Zoro was horrorized, she was actually considering it!

"... it's not a bad idea. They won't see us."

"The hell!" Roronoa Zoro, the soon-to-be best swordsman in the world, was not crawling out of a bar. Not sober, at least.

"Come on, don't be such a baby! I'll raise your debt if you don't!" she threatened.

"I don't care, you'll raise it anyway!" he replied.

Nami sighed. She had no option. 'Time for some convincing, Bellemere-style.' And then, she decided to play a move that would've made her adoptive mother inexplicably proud.

"If you do it..." she whispered softly to his ear with a seductive smirk. "I will pay you later... with my body..."

oo00oo00oo00oo00oo

"Did you see them?" commented Kaku as his companion observed her glass of red wine as if it was the most interesting thing in the world.

"Yes, I did." she replied, adjusting her glasses as the door reflected on her cup closed. "Do you think they were on a date?"

"Maybe, who knows..." sighed Kaku. "But this is nice, isn't it, Kalifa? We finally get some alone, without Jya-"

"That's sexual harassment." denounced Kalifa.

Kaku sighed again. He would never get how that worked. He would have to get this woman a dictionary soon.
