Well, this hadn't happened in a while. Sanji groaned at the mirror. His hair had taken to the complete opposite side where he wanted it to be. It usually covered his left eye but now it hid the right. He tried to brush it but it stubbornly bounced back. Even wet, it flopped to the wrong side. He wasn't going to not put off his visit to the hospital because of some stupid bad hair day. Fuck it. Seething, he brushed it flat and left.

Sanji lingered outside the door, unsure what to do. Was it too early? No, the nurse said it was fine. What was he waiting for? Why did he feel nervous? He raised a hand to knock when the door opened.

"Oh! Sanji!" Chopper squeaked, jumping back and nearly dropping the clipboard he held.

"Can I come in?"

"Of course! I've just finished," Chopper beamed, sidling past and leaving the door open.

Taking a deep breath, Sanji crossed the room, heart jittery in his chest as Zoro followed him with a one eyed stare. He stood for a moment, hands fidgeting in his pockets before he couldn't stand the silence.

"Zoro-"

"I'm okay." Sanji opened his mouth before closing it again.

"Sure?" The swordsman rolled his eye.

"Do I need to say it again?"

"Please."

"Shit-cook," Zoro declared, staring Sanji straight in the eye. "I'm fine. These wounds won't stop me from anything and if you treat me like a fucking princess I'll slice you up and throw your pieces out the window." They glared at each other. Sanji broke the silence.

"I'm relieved," he sighed, stepping closer and wrapping his arms around Zoro's still solid form.

"I'm not a stick. I can't break, idiot." Zoro snorted those words in his ear.

"I know, damn it!" Sanji buried his face into Zoro's shoulder. He sniffed.

"Don't need to be a crybaby."

"Shut up!" They fell into silence again when Sanji released him. "I had the shittiest fucking nightmare you moron."

"How's that my fault?"

"It is!" Zoro raised an eyebrow.

"What was it about?"

"It was about you and me in a jail cell."

"And?"

"You sold me out to the guard!" Zoro narrowed his eye. "Then I got fucking tortured and then I saw my hands they were just fucking hunks of meat and then eyes and mouths popped all over them and they fucking spoke."

"What did they say?"

"…It's your fault." Zoro frowned.

"Your fault for what?"

"I don't know."

"Liar." Sanji pouted.

"We will talk later." Zoro grinned. "It's going to be my turn to tell your stupid ass off."

"Whatever." Sanji turned and headed for the door.

"Wait. Something's different." Sanji stopped his hand at the doorknob.

"What?" Sanji was tempted to raise an eyebrow, but that'd be too easy. Zoro scruntised Sanji, folding his arms as he pondered.

"You. Your eyebrows." Zoro grinned.

"What about them?" Sanji mimed innocence.

"You've hidden your usual one. So…" Sanji barely resisted making a sour lemon face. Who'd knew this idiot could put two and two together so quickly? "Your eyebrows… face the same…" Zoro sputtered.

"Ah shut up! You'll reopen your wounds!" Sanji yelled. He should've never done that! Fuck!

"Why?" Zoro managed to choke out in the midst of his laughing.

"Because… I woke up that way."

"Bad hair day?" Zoro cackled.

"Well, I actually thought of a reason that will perfectly justify my shitty hair day." Zoro waved him on, with no breath to speak.

"I'll get to be eye that you're missing." The green haired man raised his eyebrows, catching his breath and pausing.

"That's so lame, you romantic idiot," he spoke before bursting into fresh laughter.

"Shut up!" Yup, Sanji should've ditched the stupid idea. He turned away, hoping the long fringe would cover the burning across his cheeks and the back of his neck.

"Ow! Fuck!"

Sanji lunged, pressing the emergency button for Chopper. Almost immediately, the little doctor stormed in, breathing heavily.

"What did he do this time?"

"He reopened his wounds!" Sanji yelled, shrieking in laughter at the red stains that were beginning to form on Zoro's bandages across his belly. Chopper took a deep breath.

"Sanji, I thought you'd be responsible while vising Zoro. At least better than Luffy," he began.

"But- it's not even my fault tha- that idiot... reopened his own… fucking wounds…"

"BUT I'VE NEVER HAD A VISITOR WHO MADE A PATIENT LAUGH SO HARD HE REOPENED HIS WOUNDS! GET OUT!"
