Zoro and Robin decided that they didn't want to end yet so there should be another chapter after this. Enjoy.

Bella Noche (Beautiful Night)

Chapter VIII

Zoro and Robin strolled through town back towards the hotel. Robin's hand was in his and he gently squeezed it. She looked over at him and gave him such a sexy smile full of promises that he tripped on the uneven ground. Robin couldn't keep from laughing. Zoro felt his face heat up and he growled menacingly. "Sorry" Robin managed between laughs. Spotting an alley way to his right he pulled Robin into it and backed her up against the brick wall.

Leaning into her he pinned her there with his weight. "Damn right you're sorry" he growled as he bent down and nipped at the soft flesh of her neck. His tongue danced a fiery path from the base of her neck up to her jaw. He held her hands above her head and closed his mouth around her earlobe. He sucked and bit eliciting gasps and moans from Robin, each one doing more to fuel his desire. When his mouth finally met hers it was with a frantic need between them.

Robin freed her hands from his grip and soon they were clawing at his back. Her fingers dug in with sweet agony and when she pushed into him desire shot through him stronger than he'd ever thought possible. He removed her hands from his back and took a step back creating some space between them. He was breathing hard and noticed with satisfaction that Robin's face was flushed and her breathing ragged.

"What?" she gasped. "We can't do this here where anyone could walk by." Zoro said as his breathing once again became even. Robin's face became redder as she realized how open the alley actually was. She lifted her hat up and placed it lightly on Zoro's head. The purple hat contrasted with his green hair only made it look comically adorable. She wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned in stopping just before their lips touched. "You'd better get me to a hotel then." Then she locked their lips together in a kiss that did nothing to help diffuse the situation. Zoro groaned and put her hat back on her head. "You're killing me here woman" he said and dragged her out into the bust streets.

"Lead the way" Robin chuckled and gladly did. She had no problem getting lost with Zoro but right now she wanted nothing more than to be in her hotel room ripping off every scrap of his clothes. She wanted to feel his hands on her body, to taste him and explore every inch of his well-defined body. Robin felt her body tighten in anticipation and she quickened her pace.

Later that afternoon Robin lay stretched out on the bed, every muscle in her body ached with a glorious satisfaction. Zoro leaned over and kissed her cheek. "Want some water?" he asked her as he sat up. "Definitely" she chuckled. As he crossed the room to the mini-fridge she admired her handiwork. Fingernail scars sure do look good on him she thought appreciatively.

Zoro got two bottles from the fridge and tossed one over to Robin. It went wide and landed on the spot he had just vacated. Robin laughed with pure contentment. Zoro smiled to himself glad to hear her laugh so openly even if it was once again at his expense. He took a long drink from the bottle before heading back to the bed. He finished the rest of the water before collapsing beside Robin. Robin rolled on to her side and sprawled her hand possessively on his chest. They laid there in silence for awhile, Robin's fingers started to trace the scar that cut across his broad chest. Zoro's mind drifted to the fight with Mihawk back at the Baratie. The fight remained fresh in his mind even though it was quite some time ago. "Zoro" Robin asked her fingers stalling. "How'd you get the scars on your ankles?"

The question took Zoro off guard and he froze. He though back to Little Garden and the cause of those particular scars. He tried to think of a way to put it that didn't make it sound stupid but couldn't. Sensing she was waiting for an answer he decided to just tell her. "Err… it was back on Little Garden when we were trapped in Mr 5's wax thing. I tried to get free by cutting my feet off but I hardened too fast and just bloodied them up instead." He knew that it hadn't been a great solution, Nami had happily pointed that out, but he hadn't been able to just stand there and die. "That takes some courage and determination" was all Robin said and Zoro felt himself relax knowing that she wasn't judging him.

Robin smiled to herself imagining Zoro trying to cut his feet off to save himself. His determination to fulfill his dreams, no matter what, gave her the strength to do the same. But she could worry about that later, right now she wanted to experience the ecstasy of being with Zoro some more. She sat up and straddled Zoro giving him her best come hither look. Zoro chuckled "again?" he asked. "Can you rise to the occasion?" she challenged him seductively with a sexy smirk and a slight pelvic thrust. Zoro couldn't help but rise to the occasion and he spent the next hour proving it.

Robin found herself sprawled on the bed once again in complete exhaustion. Zoro was in the bathroom and she was thinking they should probably try to find the others soon since it was almost dinner. Suddenly there was a knock on the door surprising her. Robin wondered who it could be, they had put the Do Not Disturb sign on the door when they arrived so it couldn't be housekeeping. She got up, slipped into a housecoat and padded across the room to the door. "Mr Cook?"

A very worried and slightly flushed looking Sanji stood in her doorway. "I saw the sign; are you ok? You're not sick are you?" Sanji asked point to the sign on the doorknob. "No Mr Cook, I'm fine. I was just having a nap since I didn't get much sleep last night." She replied avoiding the whole truth. This probably wasn't the best way for Sanji to find out about her and Zoro. Just then she heard the bathroom door open and Zoro call out "Oi Robin, who are you talking to?"

Sanji also heard Zoro and his eyes widened. "Oi Marimo head are you harassing ladies while they are trying to nap?" he said angrily. He then pushed the door open further, supposedly to go and knock some etiquette into Zoro. However when the door swung open to reveal Zoro wearing nothing more than a towel slung low on his hips Sanji froze in shock.
