Sanji looked over at Zoro, they were in bed together about to go to sleep. Only Sanji's bedside lamp on. "Everything is set so you don't have to worry about anything. Just sleep in, I got everything." Sanji tells Zoro.

"If you say so." Zoro tells the man as he kiss Sanji on the lip and laying down in bed ready to fall asleep. Sanji nods and turns his lamp off before getting into the covers too, ready to sleep. He's got a day ahead of him. He closes his eyes as he spoons Zoro.


Sanji opened his eyes slowly as he turns to his alarm as it buzzed and let out an annoying sound. He reaches forward and turns his phone off. Then he sighs as he rubs his eyes, rubbing the tired out of it. "You're awake?" He hears from the side. He turns to see Zoro looking at him with his head on the pillow. "When do you plan to take Megumi to Zeff's?" the other man asks. Sanji nods. His mind still a little fuzzy with sleep.

"I'll go after breakfast?" Sanji says stretching his back.

"Need my help?" Zoro asks sitting up then moving the covers to get off the bed. That's when Sanji remembers what he had planned.

"No!" Sanji shouts stopping Zoro who looks at him like he's gone crazy, especially after the sudden outburst. Sanji shakes his head. "No, I told you last night that you don't have to worry about anything." Sanji makes Zoro sit against the headboard then tucks him into bed again. Zoro just let the cook do whatever he just did out of shock. Sanji felt how stiff Zoro is.

"So where am I going to eat breakfast?" Zoro asks the blonde as he got up and went to his closet to get ready for the day.

"In bed," Sanji says like it's obvious. Sanji laughed at the bug eyed looked Zoro gave him. "Today, is for you to relax and not think about anything. So stay in bed." Sanji orders.

"Really?" Zoro asks. A whole day where he could just stay in and sleep? He doesn't think he's ever done that before.

"Yes, really. Once I get Megumi fed I'll bring yours in. I'll collect your plate when you finish. Then I'll drop Megumi off. But once I come back, if you need anything just yell." Sanji explains as he puts on his casual clothes. He hears Zoro say 'yes' and he could guess the man nodded too. Sanji gives him a smile before he leaves the room, not closing the door all the way. His next stop is to Megumi's room. The blonde opens it to see Megumi getting changed, out of her pajamas. He leaves her to it and goes into the kitchen and starts taking things out for breakfast.

He makes french toast, eggs and sausages. By the time he's done Megumi is already seated. When Sanji puts her plate in front of her Megumi looks confused, she then looks over at Zoro's seat. It's not unusual for Zoro to be late for breakfast but almost every time he has been late he's been seated before breakfast is served. "Where's mommy?" Megumi asks.

"Mommy is on break from work so, he's going to rest for today. Remember where we told you you are going?" He ask, just to make sure she remembers.

"I'm going to spend the day with Grandpa. Right?" Megumi answers. Sanji nods.

"Right. I'm dropping you off at the restaurant." He says gathering Zoro's breakfast on a tray. He delivers it to Zoro who gave a silent thank you. When Sanji left the room Zoro was eating his food. He joined Megumi at the table and they ate making small talk. Her talking in a whisper about practicing with the knives more, she still thinks Zoro doesn't know.

When they were done Sanji collected all of the dishes and put them in the sink. As Megumi got her things ready Sanji got Zoro's dishes, adding them to the other dishes in the sink. After that he left to drop Megumi off at Zeffs.

With this Zoro was left alone in the apartment. Sanji knew that this was long over do. Who knew how long it had been since Zoro was aloud to not think about looking out for Megumi, cleaning the apartment or work. Zoro had been given a four day weekend. Two days before New Years and one day after. Sanji wanted to give this day to Zoro, let him sleep in, not have to move and relax. Though it seemed like he failed already, Zoro was awake before him so that's out but the least he could give the man is a relaxing day in bed where he, the boyfriend, the father will be at for Zoro's mercy.

When Sanji got back home he checked on Zoro to see if he needed anything only to smile when he found the man fast asleep. So he closed the door and let him rest. As Zoro rest Sanj cleaned the dishes, dried them then put them away. He also cleaned the kitchen a little more. Once that was done he checked Zoro again to see he was still sleeping.

Sanji sat on the couch with nothing to do. The dishes and kitchen are clean. The living room is clean. The bathroom is clean. His room is clean. So is Zoro's room and Megumi's. The whole apartment has been deep cleaned, from ceiling to floor. There is nothing for him to do so he sat on the couch. It's his day of too, which means the All Blue is closed for the day.

Now with nothing to do and time to think, when was the last time he had a break from work. Think back this year has been full of things, from meeting Zoro after four years, finding out he has a daughter, Zoro getting attacked and ending up in the hospital, them moving in, breaking up with Lohan, Zoro leaving then coming back, Megumi's open house, her birthday, Halloween, Zoro's birthday, the beach, then just recently Thanksgiving and Christmas. A lot has happened this year and it was about to end. The blonde felt excited about the year to come. Who knows what's going to happen?

Sanji's eyes fell on the box next to the t.v stand. That's the box with Megumi's baby videos. Curious Sanji gets up and goes to the box. He got on one knee and looked into the box, for some reason he had it in his head that the box was small but it's actually big. There were a lot of dvds, and some usbs too. Something stood out, a book? He grabbed it and opened the front page to see his name written neatly.

To Sanji. If for whatever reason something happens to me and Megumi is put in Zeffs care. For you to understand who she is.

Sanji raised his eyebrow at that. Now more curious he continues to the next page with more handwriting. He saw the date to see it's from four- no five now- years ago.

×××Hello it's me Zoro. I don't know what I'm doing but before I continue I should say congratulations you're a father. That night you don't want to remember, where we had sex, you got me pregnant. I'm eight weeks pregnant to be precise or almost two months. I made this so you don't miss anything. At least not fully. Maybe I should get camera? I'll think about it.

I guess I should report. I moved into the school dorms. Good thing too. The pregnancy symptom are really getting to me. I've been vomiting a lot but a least the "morning sickness" seems to only happen at night when I'm at the dorms. I got a part time job at the convenience store down the street so it's really close and I don't have to travel far. I'm a little worried. I'm starting my officer training soon. I wonder how that'll go. I also went to my first doctors visit. They gave me a lot of tips but I was really nervous being there. Everyone was staring at me. But they said the baby is healthy and so am I. They also said the baby might be born late August or early September. It seems so far. Since I'm in the first trimester I have to see a doctor every month.

×××I had thought about telling you guys why I have been so moody but I didn't want to distract or worry anyone. Besides me and the baby are fine.

×××I thought I'd be different but besides my mood nothing has really changed. Maybe it's because I take my after lunch naps? But I do find myself eating almost as much as Luffy, though no one seems to notice.

×××Just got back from another doctor visit. You'll never guess what the doctor said we are going to have!

Sanji smiles at that. He could guess. And Zoro seemed so happy.

A girl! We're having a girl. I don't know why, maybe it's because it's us but I thought we'd have a boy.

××× I know I said this was for you, so you don't miss anything but now I feel like this is for me. My diary since I don't really have anyone to talk to about any of this. Maybe it will.

Since I'm being honest I'm happy that I'm healthy and so is the baby girl but what's going to happen after graduation? It's coming up. I have money saved up. Should I start looking for an apartment? I have a lot of things to plan.

×××The baby bump has developed. Thankfully I'm in my last year and it's close to graduation so I don't have club anymore. It is interesting. I'm on my second trimester now and the morning sickness hasn't lessen or gone away like they said it would.

×××It's graduation. It felt weird. To know we are no longer kids anymore. I wonder of I'll see anyone after this? Wonder if I'll see you cook?

Sanji saw tear stains on the page. Zoro cried.

Shit. Stupid hormones making me cry. You know I never knew why we couldn't get along. If I never get to say it then here; I don't hate you cook. If anything I trust you as much as I do Luffy. And right now I trust you with baby girl more than Luffy. I have a feeling he would drop her if he were to hold her. Also I've been trying to find a name for baby girl but haven't come up with one.

Thank the teachers. They are letting me stay till I find an apartment. Which should be any day. I looked everywhere near work and the police academy.

×××I got an apartment! I knew I would me and baby girl will be moving immediately.

×××There wasn't much to move. I just had clothes but many of the teachers gave me some of their old furniture. Lucky me.

Sanji got up. He felt his legs start to fall asleep so he got up and went to the couch. When comfy he continued to read.

×××I spoke too soon. Being pregnant is tiring and painful. My back hurts, my thighs ache and I feel swollen.

×××Despite the pain and aches I think I'm making it work. Though I'm showing more and it's hard to hide my stomach. And in training I'm falling a little behind. Guess I'll try harder.

×××The worst thing happened. Baby girl kicked me while at training. I'm embarrassed. I squeaked in front of everyone. All eyes were on me. I tries to play it off but I don't know if I did a good job. I am not good at lying... or acting.

×××I know I shouldn't but I couldn't help myself. I bought a baby book to read to my stomach. The doctor said she could hear by now.

×××I got fired. My boss asked me and after I told him I'm pregnant he fired me. I couldn't control my emotions and cried as I walked home. I'm embarrassed now but thanks to so many caring people, they asked and comforted me. So I feel better now but it still sucks. I hope that place loses money.

×××Job searching isn't going so well. No one would hire me. One failure after another but I can't give up. I have to protect and care for baby girl.

×××I was put on hold for my training. No big deal. That was taking to much out of me anyway. At least now I could focus on job searching.

×××It's been a while. I know I'm not suppose to be stressing but I can't help it. I used up my savings to pay for rent and have almost nothing left. I still can't find a job. Is it a thing to not hire pregnant people? Or is it just me? Is it because I don't have some college degree. I have a high school diploma, that should be enough. I feel like I'm going to break. My head is filled with what ifs and I find myself crying more than usual. The hormones are really making me more sensitive. But with me being in my second trimester, it's hard. Seeing the doctors every two weeks now adds a little normalcy.

×××I'm saved. Got a job though I'm not proud of it. It's some place called the pleasure club. I'm not happy about what I'll have to do but it'll be money in my pocket. Once baby girl is born I'll find a different job. I don't want her to grow up with me at this job. At this point I'm desperate.

×××I was to late. I got kicked out of the apartment. Lucky for me my co-workers are nice. They're letting me stay at their place so I'll be couch hopping for now. As long as it saves me money I'm fine with anything.

×××I can't believe who I saw today. The old man Zeff. I never thought I'd run into him. I told baby girl is yours cook, I knew he didn't believe at least at first after I told him how I knew he seemed to believe me but that's besides the point. He fed me! I had been so hungry. I was trying to save so I don't get kicked out of my apartment, now I'm trying not to get to comfortable at the places I've been staying. I don't want to overstay my welcome so I've been holding myself back. It was a very welcome surprise. I'll never forget those spicy hamburgers he made me. I wonder if he'll tell you, I know I told him not to but maybe he will. He's your father he has no real reason to listen to what I say.

×××I decided to stop couch hopping. Being pregnant in your third trimester really tires a person out. So I stayed at a co-workers house. He's nice, names Jason. He's a bartender at the club. I've got my own room and everything. It's nice after what feels like so long of no privacy.

×××Another one of my co-workers named Jared is teaching me how to cook. Good thing too. After thinking about being in the last trimester means the birth date is inching closer day to day. If I want to feed baby girl I better learn how to cook. I'm doing this for you too cook. If you caught me feeding baby girl garbage I'm sure you'd cave my head in.

×××I was too tired for my cooking class so on the weekend Jared took me to his house. It was beautiful and warm. I met his wife, Scarlet and his daughter Jennifer. She's five years old. It was nice to be with her. I hope baby girl is happy like her. Also Scarlet is pregnant too. Not as far as me but she's got a baby bump.

×××I'm a little worried now. Jason quit the club. Plus he has been looking at me weird. Does he not like me there? I'll try not to stay at the house to much. Though I don't know how I'll do that this close to the birth date?

×××I've been hiding at Jared's place for the most part but it's not like I'm doing nothing, he's still teaching me to cook. But it is distracting when Scarlet is staring. I didn't mention this before because I didn't think about it but even when I first met her she seemed to happy to see me. She even knew my name, my last name. At first I thought Jared had told her but he didn't know my last name till Scarlet said it out loud. Still better than Jason though.

×××Scarlet is amazing. She is going to give me some of Jennifer's old baby clothes. And she and Jared are helping me find a new place. I love them.

×××The birth date is close that my boss gave me some time off.

Sanji smiled and laughed at the smiley face Zoro made next to that sentence. He set the diary down. Wiping away the few stray tears that had fallen. He knew, knew that Zoro went through a lot but he didn't know this much.

He's fallen in love with an amazing person.
