Sanji put his phone down. Zoro is taking too long, he shouldn't be worried but he couldn't help it. Most people are sorry about Zoro but there might be some who hate his guts. Unknown to the teachers there was a list of everyone who used Zoro that wasn't shown in the video, given to club presidents, and some students. It's basic knowledge that they were kicked out of the club. Not that it really mattered, for the whole school year, at least what's left, clubs are disbanded. Many club members who had nothing to do with Brandon or Zoro are pissed at those who were involved. Because of them the third years can't finish with their club, and first years can't get ready. Those people getting blamed might blame Zoro. Trying to blame the victim.
Sanji stands up, walking to the door. But he stops in front of the group. "Where's Luffy?" he asks. How long has he been gone? Did he enter with them? Did he follow Zoro?
"He has been quiet." Usopp points out. That's all he needed. He ran out of the room, to Zoro's favorite vending machine. The others following him. He's going to kill the monkey boy. What's so hard about leaving the man alone? Why can't he take a hint?
Sanji growls when he spots the strawhat wearing boy further ahead of him. He is ready to give the man a lesson. He reaches forward pulling on his red cardigan so Luffy is facing him. The brunette looks at him shocked but the blonde continue to glare at him. Not noticing two things, the first thing is the others coming up behind him and two, that they aren't at the vending machine. Sanji opens his mouth to shout but gets beaten by someone else.
"Please Zoro I want to start over." Who is that? And they are talking to Zoro. Curious he lets go of Luffy and walks a few feet then turns to look down the hallway to find Zoro getting touched by some guy. The others joining him, standing behind him.
"There is nothing to start over." Zoro says back, the man makes a hurt expression, while Zoro tries again to get his wrist out of the man's grip.
"But Zoro I like you!" he confesses, shocking everyone there. "I want to start over, try again."
"Hell no! Not after what you did." Zoro says pinching the man to let him go.
"I'm sorry, I never should have done that, I regret it." he looks down upset.
"You shouldn't have but you did and now that's something you'll have to regret for the rest of your life not mine. So fuck off." Zoro sticks his tongue out and sticks his middle finger out, finally free.
"Why can't you give me a second chance?" he mutters.
"I'm dating someone already and why would I go out with someone who lied to me then joined a group of people making fun of me while filming me. Embarrassing me, while you watched in the corner. I will never trust you." Zoro says glaring at him, then turns, bending to grabs his drink that fell down when the tried to escape.
But Charles isn't doing to give up. He will get Zoro. He reaches for Zoro's collar to pull him back. "Hey, leave him alone asshole. He said no!" Sanji shouts glaring at the man. Charles stops. Zoro smiles as he ran the two feet to Sanji. "Come on." Sanji says grabbing his boyfriends hand and walking them back to the music room. The others long forgotten.
Once in the room alone the blonde couldn't hold back and goes for a kiss. Deepening so much he pushed Zoro against the wall. Zoro didn't mind, he welcomed it by holding the blonde closer, not sure what got the blonde in the mood but not caring.
"Oh my god! Get a room!" Nami shouts covering her eyes, along with Chopper and Usopp who moved his fingers to see.
"We did." Sanji says holding Zoro close to him. "You guys have the worst timing." Sanji frowns.
"What did you mean when you said he embarrassed you and filmed you?" Robin asks. Sanji looks at Zoro.
"I could tell them," Sanji whispers, maybe it would get them to back off. Zoro nods, facing away from them.
"After he... started his deal with Brandon he "dated" that guy but it turns out it was a lie. He lured Zoro into a trap where Brandon and the others in the kendo club made fun of him." Sanji frowns holding Zoro close, he didn't think that would happen.
"So it wasn't your first time getting humiliated." Chopper says referring to when the whole school threw things at him.
"It was the third time." Zoro answers, they looked at him shocked even Sanji. Three times? And no one helped him? Did someone help him. Sanji hoped, he didn't want to think about the possibility someone didn't. Zoro glares straight at Luffy who looked down ashamed of himself.
"I'm sorry Zoro, I broke our promise." Luffy says.
"You did, you promised you would be my friend no matter what." Zoro says back.
"I'll make it up to you, I'll give you my meat from now on, I'll share with you." he says shocking everyone in that room. Is he serious? Meat is his life blood, he lives for meat. All eyes fall on Luffy as he goes to his lunch and grabs the box of different meats, he goes back to Zoro and gives him the box. Or tries to but Zoro just stare at the extended hand. It was only fair.
"You can keep it." Zoro says. Luffy frowns, how else can he make it up to the man?
Luffy shakes his head, "it's yours now, as an a apology."
"No, that's fine." Zoro says.
"Please?" Luffy pleads. Zoro shakes his head.
"I'll accept your apology if you get Sabo to make me his mango tacos." Zoro says. If anything just the fact that Luffy is willing to give up his meat is plenty of an apology but he knew Luffy wouldn't be satisfied until he pays back.
Luffy nods, and with a smile adds, "I'll help him."
"NO!" they all shout. Nami smacks the back of his head.
"Don't kill him, we just got him back." she says. Usopp starts shaking him.
"Are you trying to kill him as an apology?" the long nose man asks hysterically.
"Zoro I missed you!" Chopper shouts going to hug Zoro, pushing the blonde out of the way.
"Zoro why didn't you beat that guy up?" Brook asks, surely the problem would have been resolved faster and he would have gotten revenge. Zoro pales.
"If I get caught fighting my father would punish me. He's already tired of all the problem I've caused so far." Zoro says shuttering a the thought, Sanji does too. The man is scary, the others felt a chill go down their spines.
