Reunion, Part 2

In the women's quarters…

Robin returned from the library, thumbing through the pages of yet another book. She was excited that she finally had time to read again. However, she wouldn't start this novel tonight. She had many things on her mind, mainly the Poneglyph she had found on Fish-Man Island.

Robin set the book on her nightstand with a smile. But then, it wasn't until she looked around the room that she noticed Nami's absence. Robin had just talked with Nami before making her trip to the library. The archaeologist laughed a little to herself. It seemed as though Nami was waiting for Robin to leave…

Back on the lawn deck…

Nothing disturbed the silence of the night except for soft moans and gasps. Nami knew that they had to be coming more from her end. But, she had so many questions racing through her mind. When did this all begin? How did it start?

And how did she end up sitting in Zoro's lap and making out with him?

Whatever the answers to her questions were, Nami didn't protest in the slightest. Her hands were now in Zoro's hair, grabbing his head, making their kiss even deeper and stronger. She could feel his tongue against hers, leading to the gasps and the moans that she didn't even bother to try and hold back.

Nami had spent two years away from Zoro. She had spent two years—well, longer than that—wondering what being with Zoro like this might be like. She was quickly finding out. His presence was overwhelming. His body seemed so huge as it cradled her much smaller one. Nami could feel every muscle in his shoulders tighten as his hands ventured up and down her back. It was as though he could crush her at any moment.

Yet, surprisingly, Zoro had the lightest touch. His fingers and lips were both very soft. Nami had no idea how this kiss could be so strong when it felt like he was hardly touching her at all. But, he was. They were so close that their chests were even touching.

Zoro's hands moved up to her shoulder blades, and he lifted her up as though she was a feather. Nami broke the kiss just for a moment to see what he was doing. Zoro kept eye contact with her as he got up on his knees, even while she was still wrapped around him. Then, slowly, Zoro lowered Nami toward the grass and laid her down. It was like he was placing her on a bed. Nami's face flushed bright red at the thought. Zoro was now on top of her. He moved her arms away from around his neck and placed them back at her sides. Nami gasped a little as Zoro pinned her down by the wrists.

"Z-Zoro?" she whispered.

Zoro answered her by nuzzling his face into her neck, kissing her throat. Nami's eyes fluttered shut. Then, she could feel the strap of her bikini top coming off. She opened her eyes once more to see Zoro tugging at the strap with his teeth. He slowly, agonizingly, dragged the strap down her shoulder before moving away a little. Nami's eyes met his, and she smiled deviously.

"You could just untie it, you know." she mused.

"I'm trying to be romantic, woman." Zoro mumbled.

A blush crept to Nami's cheeks. As much as she wanted to make another jab at him, she couldn't help but succumb to the sensation she was feeling. Zoro… was trying to be romantic. Zoro. Nami never thought that the word 'romantic' was even in his vocabulary. As he took care of her other bikini strap, she turned her head away and let her eyes fall closed again. She wanted to memorize how this felt. Zoro's strong hands grasping her wrists. His warmth and weight pressed against her at different parts of her body: her chest, her stomach, and her hips. And his lips and tongue, traversing up her shoulder and along her collarbone.

Nami opened her eyes again just long enough to see Zoro's face in front of hers and his lips brushing against hers. Yet, Zoro didn't close his eye. He maintained eye contact with her, and she with him. The kiss was short but sweet. And much to Nami's dismay, Zoro rolled off of her and lied next to her on his back.

"Wait, what are you doing?" Nami said a bit breathlessly. She hadn't exerted herself at all, and yet, she was gasping for air.

"What do you think I'm doing?" Zoro responded. "I'm stopping before we get ahead of ourselves." Nami turned over onto her side, facing him.

"What? What do you mean?" she asked him. "Weren't… Weren't you enjoying yourself?"

"Yes." Zoro answered bluntly.

"Then, why did you stop?"

Zoro now sat up, crossing his legs in front of him as he had before. He looked down at Nami.

"I stopped because I didn't want us to get ahead of ourselves." he repeated. Then, he continued, "This has gone far enough as it is. What would the others say?"

Nami sat up as well, getting a bit impatient with him.

"Who says the others have to know?" she retorted. "This is between you and me. It's none of their business."

"Yes, it is, Nami." Zoro said. Nami could've sworn she detected a hint of sadness in his voice. "We're all nakama. We can't keep something like this a secret from them."

"You kept your feelings for me a secret." Nami murmured.

"You did too, woman!" Zoro snapped. Nami shushed him harshly, scooting closer to him as she did. She definitely noticed that she had done so, and it was a conscious decision. She whispered now.

"Look. We have feelings for one another. That's pretty clear. We haven't seen each other for two years. So, it's also clear that we still have these feelings even after so long. What's so wrong about that?"

Zoro rolled his eyes with a scoff.

"A lot of things." Zoro answered in a low voice. "I don't want to change the way things are on this ship. I don't want to change the way things are between us." Nami's eyes widened. So, he didn't want to be romantically involved with her?

"What are you trying to say?"

Zoro shook his head a little. "I didn't mean it like that…" he trailed off. "But, what if something happened between us? What if we have a fight, and one of us storms off? Tensions would be high among the rest of the crew, and they could choose sides… It could tear this crew apart."

Nami looked to the ground for a moment, taking in what Zoro had said. "Oh" was all she could manage.

"We can't let that happen." Zoro told her softly. Nami felt tears welling in her eyes, and they threatened to spill over. She tilted her chin toward the sky, looking at the stars above. Once she felt like she had composed herself at least a little, her eyes met his once more.

"What if we just had this one time, this one night, to be together?" she reasoned. "We can keep one night a secret from the others, right? It wouldn't be that hard." Zoro sighed.

"Nami—"

Nami suddenly kissed Zoro again, as hard as she could, to silence him. He, of course, had no time to object, and instead, he cupped her face in his hands. They separated, and Nami moved her hands to his shoulders.

"I just want to know what this is like." Nami admitted. "I want to know what it's like to be with you."

Zoro blinked a little, but no trace of emotion flickered across his features. He stayed still as Nami used her hands to edge his green coat off of his shoulders and down his arms. Her hands then moved to his bare chest, resting on his pecs.

"C'mon…" Nami cooed. "Please?"

Zoro looked her in the eyes with a hardened glare. He had one eyebrow raised skeptically. Yet, this didn't stop him from snaking his arms around her waist once more.

"You know that things will never be the same between us." he told her.

"Yes."

"And you know what would happen if any member of the crew found out."

"Especially Sanji-kun, yes." Nami nearly giggled. Zoro scoffed once more, but this time, he smiled as well.

"This is a mistake." he stated.

"Best mistake I've made recently." Nami said with a wink. "How about you?"

Zoro replied by untying Nami's bikini top and helping her take it off. He then discarded it over his shoulder. Nami moved closer to him, letting their naked upper bodies touch for the first time. Both of them let out the smallest sounds of desire. Nami took control, and she pushed Zoro toward the deck beneath them. However, she wasn't far behind, closing the distance between them and kissing him feverishly. Zoro matched her with equal intensity.

They didn't get much further than that.

"Nami… I believe you dropped something."

Nami and Zoro stopped kissing immediately, and Zoro shifted to the side, shielding Nami's body with his own. He had done it so quickly that Nami assumed that he had acted out of instict. To protect her. She looked up at him for a moment, and she knew that her face had to be bright red. Finally, she looked at the crew member that had caught them in the act. Standing there with a gentle smile, arm outstretched with Nami's bikini top in hand, was Robin.

The older woman laughed softly. "It's a nice night. Though not particularly warm, is it?"

"Robin!" Nami hissed. "I thought you went to the library."

"I did." Robin answered calmly. "And now, I see where you went off to, Nami." Nami looked down in embarrassment while Zoro just stared at Robin intensely.

"It's alright." Robin assured the both of them. "I have no intention of telling anyone of what I've found."

Nami perked up a little and looked at Robin.

"Promise?" Nami nearly squeaked.

"I promise." Robin said with one of her mysterious smiles. She neared the couple just enough to set the bikini top near Zoro's head. Zoro watched every move she made, still wary. Robin laughed softly again and addressed Zoro.

"May I suggest that you take Nami to the privacy of the crow's nest?"

"Hmph."

Robin giggled, not saying anything else as she turned around and headed back inside the Thousand Sunny. Nami let out the breath she had been holding for at least a minute. She leaned her body against Zoro's.

"You really don't think she'll say anything?" Zoro asked, his eye still watching the door that Robin had disappeared into. Nami shook her head.

"It'll be fine, Zoro. Robin keeps a lot of things to herself."

"Right."

At first, Nami thought that he had said that in response to her comment. Yet, it wasn't long before she knew otherwise. Zoro had moved to pick her up and stand up with her in his arms. Nami's legs were wrapped around his waist, and her hands rested on his shoulders. Zoro looked her in the eyes.

"Let's go." he simply said. Nami looked up the ropes of the foremast.

"Um…"

"Just hold on to me."

Nami's eyes widened. She strengthened her grip on him, even burying her face into his neck. She could hear Zoro scoff a little, and suddenly, they were moving. He was climbing up to the crow's nest.

Just then, Nami realized that she couldn't just have Zoro for one night. She realized that she wanted to hold him and never let go.

Before she knew it, Nami found herself standing in the crow's nest. The place was pitch black, save for the moon's blue glow coming in from the windows. It almost reminded her of the aquarium room. In the darkness, she didn't even bother to cover her exposed breasts. It was way too dark to see them and, more importantly, Zoro had already seen them. It would have been pointless.

Zoro stood beside Nami, one of his hands placed on the small of her back. The other was in the moonlight, and Nami couldn't help but giggle. Zoro dropped her bikini top to the floor.

"Thank you." she said. "We wouldn't want anyone to find that."

"Yeah."

Nami could feel how close Zoro was to her. Heat radiated off of him. She followed it until she was in his arms again. His hands were above her waist, placed on her ribcage on either side. Nami could feel her breasts rub against Zoro's chest again, and she bit her lower lip. She could feel Zoro's hands lower to her hips, and his fingers found their way to the brim of her pants. Nami's hands managed to get a hold of Zoro's sash.

"Zoro…"

"Hmm?"

"Can we… move into the light for a minute?"

Zoro didn't say anything, but he seemed to oblige as he led her to a large portion of moonlight. Nami took a deep breath. She first saw her own, pale skin in the light, and then Zoro's much darker skin. She looked up. The very second she located his lips, Nami crashed her own against them.

A low, hoarse sound came from Zoro as he parted Nami's lips with his tongue, and their two tongues brushed together. Both pairs of hands searched eagerly, pulling and tugging at clothing. Nami could feel Zoro's fingers near her zipper, and he guided her out of her pants. Nami practically tore Zoro's sash off of him and removed his coat and haramaki.

Zoro was right. Things would never be the same between them again.

They were now naked in front of each other.

Nami stopped kissing him for a moment, and they stood holding each other at arm's length. She looked up and down his body, and at this point, she wanted him. Badly. She also couldn't help but notice just how handsome he was. Two years had changed so much, and definitely not in a bad way. Nami then watched as Zoro examined her body as well. She thought it was adorable how red his face was and how much he was ogling at her, though she knew that he would never admit it.

Zoro opened his mouth to speak, yet it quickly clamped shut. He was rarely at a loss for words about anything. Nami decided to trace her index finger down the middle of his chest to his navel, and she was about to take it even lower. However, Zoro trapped her hand with his.

At first, Nami thought she had done something wrong. "What is it?"

Zoro smirked, letting his fingers brush against her lower abdomen as well. She quivered visibly.

"You're teasing me, woman." he almost growled. Nami laughed a little.

"I see." she said with a smile. Then, the smile turned devious. "Alright then. No more games."

Finally, Nami and Zoro kissed again, fiercely, and they took to the floor of the crow's nest.

The next morning…

"Nami-SWAAAANN!"

On his tip-toes, Sanji twirled out of the kitchen, a pot of fresh coffee in one hand and a mug in the other. He stood on the balcony for a moment, overlooking the lawn deck and the front of the ship. His mood quickly diminished when Nami was nowhere to be found. Luffy, Chopper and Usopp were chattering and running around on the lawn deck. Brook was laughing and playing his guitar. Sanji was glad to see everyone else, of course, but Nami wasn't there.

Yet, Sanji's wouldn't let his mood be ruined, for he saw a head of dark, raven hair near the bow of the ship. Sanji continued on light feet across the lawn deck and toward Robin, who was sitting in a chair reading the newspaper. Franky joined her, sipping on a cola.

"Robin-CHWAAAANN!" Sanji exclaimed. He slowed down and approached her with a deep bow. "May I interest you with more coffee, Robin-chan?"

"Certainly, Sanji-san." Robin answered with a smile. "Thank you." Sanji took the pot and refilled Robin's coffee mug. He then set Nami's mug on the table near Franky.

"Oi. You haven't seen Nami-san yet, have you?" Sanji asked.

"Nah." Franky responded. "She's probably still sleeping!"

"Indeed she is." Robin added, still smiling. Sanji sighed, placing one hand over his heart.

"My Nami-san loves her beauty rest! Even when she doesn't need it!" he shouted.

Robin kept herself occupied with her reading, flipping a page of the newspaper over. Yet, for a brief moment, she glanced up at the crow's nest. She laughed to herself and wondered how those two would sneak out without anyone else noticing.

"Something super funny in the paper, Robin?" Franky asked with a grin. Robin shook her head and giggled.

"It's nothing, Franky."
