" Robin I'm glad we took advantage of that sale," said Chopper who was caring one bag as they left from the library.
" Yes, it was good especially do to our shortage money," said Robin who had one bag herself.
" Lets go see the others, I'm sure they are finished with their things by now," said Chopper with a happy tone.
" Alright, but I think it would be better to drop off our bags to the ship, then we can visit the others." said Robin.
" Sure sounds like a good idea," replied Chopper.
As they made their way to the port they passed the bar where Zoro was putting his shoulder around Paulie.
When Zoro found Robin and Chopper he signaled to them.
" Oi you two, over here!" he said loudly.
They stopped and turned where the voice came from, and saw Zoro.
" Hey Zoro, um what's wrong with Paulie," Asked Chopper noticing Paulie's red face.
" He's drunk...very drunk," Added Zoro looking at Paulie who's face seemed even worse now.
"How many glasses did he have?" Asked Chopper concerned with how much the man consumed.
" Uh two and a half...bottles." replied Zoro only to see Chopper's face become alert.
" WHAT!"
"TWO BOTTLES...THAT'S DANGEROUS... TOO MUCH DRINKING CAN CAUSE POISINING FOR YOUR STOMACH!" said Chopper looking at Paulie's face.
Paulie gave a small laugh, " What are you... a doctor?"
" I am," said Chopper looking dumbfounded.
" You really are drunk,"said Zoro a bit worried.
" Well we have to help him get to the ship," spoke Robin for the first time.
Zoro nodded in agreement then began helping Paulie again to the ship.
On their way to the ship Robin looked at Zoro, " Did you get carried away too?"
" No way," replied Zoro in an outraged voice.
" A swordsmen should always know their limit when it comes to situations like drinking," he said.
Paulie laughed, " Hee hee... you swordsmen have a rule book or something?"
" No," replied Zoro, " But I wish you did."
When they finally made it to the ship they went to Paulie's room were Zoro helped him on his bed.
Chopper left for his needed tools and left Zoro and Robin alone with Paulie.
Zoro walked towards a nearby chair and sat placing his fingers around his hair.
" Man I'm exhausted," he mumbled .
Robin gave him a suspicious look, " Mr. Swordsman are you sure you didn't over do it as well?"
" No, I'm sure," he said grabbing another chair next to him.
" Want to sit?" He asked pointing to the chair next to him.
She smiled, " No, I'm fine thank you."
Zoro shrugged, " Suit yourself." he said putting both feet over the extra chair.
Chopper soon came back with a bag, " Okay guys why don't you leave me alone with the patient okay?"
Robin smiled, " Sure...Mr. Swordsman lets go."
Zoro however took his time getting up and he feel his feet a bit wobbly.
They both made it outside the room and Robin turned to him, " I'm going to see the others."
Zoro closed his eyes with a loud sigh, " Okay Robin go ahead...I'm feeling a bit tired... I'll stay."
Robin gave him a worried look, " Are you really okay?"
He gave a small chuckle, " I'm fine don't worry."
He started walking towards his room but then grabbed the wall for support.
What the hell is wrong with me? Asked Zoro to himself.
He never felt this tired... he was really losing it.
Robin who already turned around and started walking stopped when she heard a loud (THUD) and groaning.
She turned to see Zoro on the ground shaking really badly.
So this is what if feels like...to be sick...I'm a disgrace thought Zoro before he got knocked unconscious.
" Mr. Swordsman?" asked Robin walking towards him as he lay face down.
She grabbed his wrist, " Your very sweaty."
She then placed her cool hand on his forehead, " You-your burning up!"
" Mr. Doctor please come quick...Mr. Swordsman is very ill."said Robin holding on Zoro's hand.
Chopper opened the door to notice Zoro on the ground, " What-quick place him in his bed."
Robin used her powers to make little feet carry Zoro to his room.
She followed behind her group of feet and went to his room.
When they reached to Zoro's room Robin made her feet place him on his bed.
She placed a blanket around him and looked at him.
Nobody was around not yet, so she briefly held his hand.
" Mr. Swordsmen you've helped me in the past now...im going to return all those favors."
SNEAK PEEK OF THE NEXT CHAPTER
" I can't believe I got sick," frowned Zoro.
"It's okay Mr. Swordsman we all get sick that's part of what makes us normal," replied Robin with a smile.
" Well I can't be normal," he said forcing himself to get up from his bed.
Robin gave him a soft glance, " Mr. Swordsmen don't try to grow up too fast."
Zoro lips curled, " But I AM grown up."
He stood before Robin straight and firm.
Robin had a weird feeling the way he looked at her.
" Please don't look at me like that Mr. Swordsman...its uncomfortable." she said backing up from him.
After she said that he knew exactly what she felt, that made him even more daring.
" I'm sorry," he said reaching for her face.
