Sanji walked as he looked at the sky with a cigarette loosely hanging from his lips, a bag in one hand with his other hand in his pocket. Sanji let out a breath and smoke came out of his mouth like a dragon. It's been a whole week, Thanksgiving break is about to end and he hasn't been able to contact Zoro. The green haired man just ghosted him. No answer, no text back, the man just disappeared. He's even checked the man's home but it's empty. Where could he be? Zoro had told him he was off work the whole week so what was he doing?

He was hoping they'd go out on a date. He wanted to treat Zoro. The man deserves it for how the rest of the school week ended. The others bombarded Zoro. Everywhere the green haired man went someone was there voicing how sorry they were. Even their lunches weren't sacred anymore. The others would show up and sit themselves down, saying how sorry they were then they would eat. He could tell how much it bothered Zoro. What couldn't they understand that Zoro didn't want to be around them?

The worst part was that Zoro couldn't really stop them. They were at school, they have the same class. It's the same path going and coming from everywhere. The bathroom, can't really say Usopp is following him. The cafeteria, can't say Luffy is stalking him. Helping the teachers, can't say Robin was helping just to be near him. There is no way he could prove that they were following him.

Sanji did feel a little sorry for them. Every glare they get from Zoro seems to break them just a little more each day. But he said he wouldn't interfere with what's going on between them and Zoro. Though he couldn't help but sympathize with them, he to tried very hard too, so why wasn't it working with them?

"Sanji!" the blonde turns around to see Nami walking up to him, Robin behind her. Sanji stays in place and waits for them to get to him. As Nami got near him he saw her head down. "Listen Sanji I don't know if I've said it or not but I'm sorry. It's just upsetting to know that you lied to my face so easily." Sanji just nod, he could understand why that would upset her or anyone, he would be too.

"It's fine. If you don't mind ladies." Sanji nods at them turning around continuing to find random things to occupy his time as he wait for Zoro to answer his text.

"Sanji do you know when Zoro will be able to forgive us?" Robin asks. Sanji turns back to them then shrugs, turning back away from them again.

"You really don't know?" Nami asks, very sad by the answer.

"Sorry ladies." He says leaving the two alone. They all sure are persistent. Two days ago it was Usopp, a day ago it was Brook, when break started it was Luffy, Frank was asking one day, another day it was Chopper. It's just never ending, that's how it seemed but maybe now with Nami and Robin being the last it will finally stop. He could only hope.

Sanji stopped in his tracks as he felt his pocket vibrate. As quick as lightning his hands dig into his pocket looking for his phone hoping it is who he's wants to talk to and not a grumpy old man. He finally finds his phone and looks at the screen to see it is who he wants it to be. "Hello?" He says to enthusiastically. He heard laughing on the other end. It made him blush.

"It's been a while cook." The voice says, some reason it sounded sexy to the blonde, which doesn't make sense as he's talked face to face with this person. Was it because they haven't seen each other in so long?

"Zoro, what happened? I thought we could hang out with other this week but you disappeared on me." The blonde says a little hurt. He heard Zoro sigh.

"Sorry. We both had expectations on how this week was going to go. I saw your texts, and voicemails." Sanji blushed at that. He must have sounded desperate and dramatic.

"Sorry. I must sound like a lunatic, I was just worried. You just disappeared on me." He explains, not wanting Zoro to think he's crazy and break up with him. Zoro laughs at him.

"You did sound crazy but I know it seemed like I just got spirited away. But... um... do you have time now? We could meet up, for lunch. I'm kind of hungry now and I could explain to you what happened." Sanji smiled, he'll get to see Zoro after all.

"Sure. What do you want? I'll make something for you." He's close to the Baratie, he could make something then go to Zoro, maybe. Did he say he was home? He already checked.

"I'm in the mood for a burrito."

"That's doable." Sanji starts making his way to the Baratie.

"Really?!" Zoro sounds surprised.

"Of course I could make anything." Sanji voice is laced with pride.

"Not ramen." Zoro counters. That deflated Sanji's ego.

"Got me there." He answers back. "But I can make a burrito. What do you want in it?" Sanji asks.

"A carne asada burrito." Zoro says. Sanji stops in his tracks. What is that? He's not sure what that has. He didn't want to ruin his reputation. He already said he'll make it, no going back now.

"Where should I meet you?" He asks walking towards a grocery store.

"I'll send you address. See you soon cook." Zoro says rapidly then ends the call. Sanji looks at his phone to see the call end.

Sanji starts researching the burrito as he makes his way to the store. He grabs the ingredients then makes his way home. He goes to the home kitchen away from the restaurant. He didn't want anyone to see him making it. This is for him and Zoro so he's going to put all his love and care into it. After a week, give or take, of not seeing Zoro he's got to make sure it's memorable. He paid extra attention to the recipe and tips. He didn't want to have it be like Zoro's birthday and the ramen. As Sanji wrapped their burritos he goes to his messages and looks for Zoro's texts. Zoro sent him an address. He puts it into the map app, then puts his phone to the side. He puts the wrapped burrito in a bag to keep it warm. Then he grasps two reusable cups and pours mango juice into one and some soda into another. He puts both cups into the bag with the food. He zips the bag closed and rushes to the door.

"Where are you off to?" He hears Zeff ask behind him.

"Just out. See you." He says running out.

Sanji was so excited to see Zoro that he wasn't fully aware of where he was going. He wasn't sure he got the place right as he stood there looking up at the skyscraper. He looked around to see everyone that is walking in and out wearing suits. There he stood in his jeans and salmon polo shirt. Did Zoro send him to the wrong place? He wouldn't think against it.

He sent Zoro a text telling him he's at the address. He asked the man in a separate text if he sent the right address. No way this is it. What is Zoro doing here? Sanji looked down at his phone vibrating. It is Zoro calling him. He answers it, "hello?"

"Are you still in front?" He asks.

"Yeah." Sanji answers with a nod of his head

"Then go inside and head to the cafeteria area. There are signs to lead the way. Just ask someone if you get lost. I have to go see you down there." After that Zoro hangs up. Sanji stared at his phone. Zoro sounded busy and he heard people in the background.

What is he doing?
