"Have you just been lazing around the past week?" Nami asked, hanging her head off Zoro's bed and watching him upside down.

"I guess." he shrugged and continued lifting the dumbbells he had in his hands.

"Don't you get bored?"

"Yeah, but what else can I do?"

"I guess you only consider fights fun huh?"

"That's what I like doing, but I'm working on my skills so I'm mainly just frustrated I cant practice them in a real fight."

Nami gave him a wicked and devious smile, "I bet Sanji would be willing to spar with you." she said in a teasing sing-song voice.

"I bet if I asked him to do it to help me, he'll say no." he said back in his own similar but still mocking sing-song tone.

"Hmmp. See if I ever try to cheer you up again."

"I would pay you to stop trying!"

"That's uncalled for Zoro, uncalled for."

Zoro rolled his eyes at her upside down pout. "I'm going to a bar tonight."

Nami flipped right side up again and looked him over. "Just to drink?"

"Do you think I would try to relive that nightmare again?" he snorted.

"Don't get drunk, or it might." she warned.

"I don't enjoy not being in control of my body." he said, scowling at the memory of crying in Nami's lap.

"But you were so cute!" she said, picking up on his thoughts. He glared at her and Nami laughed at him.

"Don't call me that!"

"Not manly enough for you? Would handsomely adorable be more fitting?" she continued.

"Shut it!"

"Dwa wittle dweamon?" she said, mimicking a child's voice.

He growled and started digging through he drawers for something to wear, ditching his dumbbells on the floor.

"I bet if I made a doll it would sell wonderfully!"

"Five bucks to stop?" Zoro held out the bill he found among his clothes behind him as he still searched through his drawers for something clean. He chuckled quietly when Nami's laughter suddenly stopped and the money was snatched from his hand.

"For five bucks? Really?"

"Shut up, all I had to do is annoy you and I got money for it."

Zoro shrugged and he pulled out a shirt that wasn't crumpled and smelled all sweaty. He pulled it over his bare chest and grabbed a coat.

"For thirty bucks I'll do your laundry."

"That sounds a bit cheap for you." he commented.

"Its starting to stink up the entire floor, I'm worried it'll start drifting upstairs. Deal?"

"Whatever, I gave you my money a while ago, take it from that."

"That's for the house."

"That was for my share for the house for, like, four months."

"It wouldn't last for four months."

"BS, since you stole my money apparently, miss banker, you owe me." he smirked at her as he folded his arms over his chest.

"Not if I only took what you already owe me." she pointed out, looking up at him with a bored expression. Zoro scowled at losing the upper hand.

"Seriously, if I'm not allowed to fight you screwed us all for next month."

"Relax, I didn't spend it, yet."

"Whatever, I'm leaving."

"But you didn't pay me yet!"

"You didn't do it yet."

"How untrusting!" he smirked at her, proud that he got the upper hand and actually kept it for once.

"I shouldn't be to late."

"Well I wont be here to see so come back whenever you want."

He rose an eyebrow in question and a faint blush covered her face. "Out huh?"

"Got a problem with that?" she demanded, avoiding his eyes.

"Nope. Have fun." he said, in a mock motherly voice, her face got two times a brighter shade of red. He smiled to himself as he stepped out the door.


AN: quick question guys, I was originally planning for Nami to have a relationship, but I don't think its going to come up in the way I have the story planned so far :/ would anyone especially want me to try and squeeze it in?
