Sanji smiled as he brought the costumer their drinks. He was helping Zeff out at the Baratie. Leaving it open at night for the bar seems to be a smart move. It was almost as full as it would have been during the day but that means Zeff has been working twice as hard. He would be at home with Zoro and Megumi right now but Zeff needed help, someone called in sick and he needed a replacement. He talked to Zoro, he didn't really want to go, wanted to stay home and be with Zoro and Megumi but Zoro told him just to help. He was about to call and tell Zeff he would be willing to substitute but after the friday after Thanksgiving he went. He didn't want anymore people looking at how good Zoro is. Though, it seemed like Zoro did that on purpose.

Plus it's not like anything special would have happened. Megumi is back at school and Zoro's back at work so they probably ate dinner, watched a movie then took a shower and went to sleep. Nothing special but for him it was. But it's not like they don't do that almost every night.

Sanji mixed the drinks expertly, getting rounds of praises but not paying attention as he thought about Zoro. He was glad to know that Zoro is okay with marriage. He was kind of afraid that Zoro would had it but he doesn't. Also glad to know that their relationship could go the next step, being marriage. He's talked to Zoro about it and the man's reaction to it was comforting, and cute. Just thinking about it made him smile. Zoro doesn't really know how married couples are but he thought that he and the blonde already act like a married couple. They are a family but aren't binded by law.

"Sanji!" The blonde looks up with his smiles to see familiar faces. "How's it been?" Nami asks.

"It's been good. What you ladies up to?" He asks but he saw that it was just the ladies. "Girls night?" He asks.

"Yeah. What a great way to start the new year. Plus tonight was the only night we all had off." Vivi answers sitting at the bar. The other girls joining her. He turns and is shocked.

"Shocked right?" Nami smiles putting her hands on the woman's shoulders. "We got Kaya to join us tonight." Nami grins.

"I'm a little nervous." Kaya answers sitting down properly and gracefully. Sanji gives her a reassuring smile.

"It's alright, if you don't want anything with alcohol just tell me." Sanji answers. "So what will you all be having?" Sanji mentally noted down their drinks and foods as they said what they wanted. Sanji stops at Kaya, she had ordered her food but didn't know what to order as a drink, since she wasn't much of a drinker. "How about I make it light?" Sanji asks.

"Yes, please." Kaya answers. Sanji left to get their foods done first. When he came back he served them. As they started to eat their food he started on their drinks.

"So," Nami swallows so her food before continuing, "how's Megumi and Zoro. We didn't see each other much. All we have seen you all is our group call for New Years countdown." Nami asks. Sanji gave Kaya her drink first, it was more like a punch with a small amount of alcohol. If she was fine with more then he'll add more for her next drink, and going up till she knew her cap.

"Didn't you and Zoro kiss at midnight?" Vivi asks smiling.

"You kissed Nami at midnight too." Sanji answers with a blush.

"So you did?" Nami states with a loud gasp.

"I have noticed you seem rather chipper tonight. More so than usual." Robin points out.

"What's there not to be happy about?" Sanji asks rhetorically. "Zoro's happy, Megumi's happy. Zoro is willing to marry me. Megumi wants to do things as a family. Life is good." Sanji says.

Nami clears her throat, even though she didn't need to but it made everyone look at her, Sanji included. "I'm sorry but go back."

"Life is good?" Sanji asks. Nami shakes her head.

"No. The part about you, Zoro and Marriage. Where did that come from?"

"I mean I know it's really early to be talking about marriage but after Lohan I had to made sure there was a future between us. I asked if he would marry me." Sanji summarizes.

"You proposed to Zoro?" Nami asks in disbelief.

"Not completely. I asked if he saw himself marrying me one day."

"And what did he say?" Kaya asks intrigued. She had known Zoro longer than Sanji so she had to know. It was heartbreaking when Usopp would tell her about how they couldn't find him. Usopp use to tell her stories of the trouble Luffy, Zoro, Nami and he would get into. For a while it was just those four before Sanji entered the picture, soon after the others. Though she never met Sanji and the rest till more recently. She had only met and talked to Luffy, Zoro and Nami when they were younger.

"He said he could see us getting married in the future." Sanji was about to mention the other stuff Zoro said but decided to keep that to himself. That was between him and Zoro.

"So how far into the future do you see yourself actually proposing to Zoro?" Vivi asks. Sanji never really thought about it. Would proposing to Zoro right now be to fast. But he doesn't want to wait to long either. He hopes their future is bright, but you could never really know if something were to happen, Zoro had already been in the hospital once what if he ends up there again? Sanji shakes his head, no time to think about the negative when it hasn't happened.

"I haven't really thought about it. I'm just happy to know it could happen one day." Sanji answers.

"Well, as long as you're happy." Vivi says. The other girls join in with their agreement and nods. He knew, because Robin and Nami had told him, that they didn't like to see him unhappy but they didn't say anything because they didn't want to over step.
