What the hell?

One moment he was hugging his nakama after he had revealed his secret from Thriller Bark, he had Nami's arms wrapped around him which was quite nice but suddenly he felt tired and everything went black, he heard someone shout his name.
He was sure it was Luffy, Zoro had expected a hard fall but it hadnt been, someone had caught him and slowly they lowered him to the floor but now he was back in the darkness. Like the moment when he fell before Sanji and the time he was recovering but no one had come out from the darkness like before.

No Luffy.

No Nami.

At the moment, he could not see anything but soon his ears began to pick up on a few words.

"Its not bad is it Chopper?"

He was very sure that was Luffy's voice he had heard so Zoro followed it, he was trusting sense of hearing to guide him, soon he could hear another voice. It was much child like but he it was a voice that had a lot knowledge, there was only one person he could think of.

"Stress of the secret finally caught up with him"

Chopper, the small reindeer doctor, the only one who could of possible knew what had happen to him but soon he heard Luffy's voice again and followed it however he stopped when he listened to the voice, he had make sure he wasnt hearing things.

"Do you Love him?"

Zoro wondered who Luffy was talking to, he hoped it was one of the women and not the men. He prayed it wasnt Sanji, the swordsman knew it would not be Robin for Franky was into her and he could see the older women would like to return the feelings back but she was unsure how to approach the situation so that only left one person.

Nami.

There was no voice, just darkness and it made him frown, she didnt reply and it pained him slightly.

"He loves you too"

He raised an eyebrow when he heard Luffy's voice again, what was his captain doing. Sure he had grown to love Nami more than as nakama but like Robin, he was having trouble coming to terms with it but no matter how much they argued, she was his light in the darkness. Thinking about it all, a smile appeared upon his face.

Suddenly he saw a bright light up in front of him so Zoro moved towards it then he could hear it like a record player, playing the same tune over and over.

"Of course I love you, I will always need you, your so specail to me. You are the strength I have when I go into battle and the weakness when I fear we may have lost you"

An angelic voice, he knew it was Nami's and just hearing those words being spoken from her lips made his core warm yet again. Those words were the confidence he needed to tell her how he felt, feeling his energy suddenly returning to his body, he moved more towards the light. Soon it became very bright sp he raised his arm up to block it but that didnt stop it, his eyes were very sore and soon he felt the need for air so he gasped like a fish out of water.

Nami was woken up by the sound of the gasping, she rubbed her eyes as she looked down. Smiling, yet she was worried, she tried to calm Zoro down as the swordsman had yet to open his eyes.

"Zoro calm down, breath slowly"she said.

The gasping finally woke Luffy up, he moved closer to Zoro as he was worried but he got a fist in the face. Getting up from the floor, the captain pouted as he rubbed his face. Zoro was now sitting up, his eyes wide open, the navigator was rubbing his back she then turned to Luffy asking him to go get Chopper.

"Ok"he replied smiling.

He ran off still rubbing his face but now it left Nami and Zoro alone, the swordsman hadnt said anything since waking up, she stood up and walked over to the sink. Nami thought he would need a drink so she got him some water, walking back to him, he took the drink with a nod and gulped the whole glass.

"Feeling much better?"she asked.

"Yeah, can I have some more water"Zoro replied.

Nodding she took his glass and moved back to the sink as she turned the tap on, Luffy walked through the door with Chopper who had a plate of food. She smiled as she moved back and handed him the glass. The small doctor handed Zoro the plate of food while Luffy sat back down next to the guy, Nami smiled at the three, she knew he would be fine now so she bid the others a goodbye as she needed to change.
Zoro watched her leave but he wished she didnt because he needed to talk to her about something.

"You should be all fine now Zoro"Chopper said breaking his thoughts.

"No more stress problems?"he asked.

"There shouldnt be"

"So he can leave the medical bay"Luffy asked smiling.

"Yeah"He replied back with a smile.

The small doctor checked Zoro over again just to make sure then he nodded to the swordsman, he got out of the bed before grabbing the plate and glass, he placed the glass back in the sink and turned to the others with a smile. Luffy grinned as he opened the door, he was the first one out followed by Zoro who had picked up Chopper, their captain had led them to the kitchen were Sanji had cooked up a few plates of warm stew.

"Thought you might be hungry"he said as he re-lit his smoke.

Zoro nodded and took a seat, Chopper had taken the seat next to him. He was glad that they weren't giving him pity looks so he took the fork and began to eat, a few times he stabbed Luffy who wanted some food. Once he was done, he moved onto the deck, Luffy and Chopper ran to Usopp who was fishing. Glad that he could be alone, he sat down in his spot and closed his eyes.

Hearing someone sit next to him, he opened one eye to see Franky had taken a seat next to him, opening his other eye he turned to the cyborg. Zoro was about to say something about wanting to be alone and that he didnt need someone to watch him but Franky had pointed over to the left, he followed the hand and smiled when he saw Nami hug Robin but a small frown appeared on his face when Sanji approached the two.

"I heard what Sis said to you, Robin wanted me to check on her, I would do anything for that creepy women"he said.

"I know, I would do anything for that bossy witch"Zoro replied laughing.

"But he is a problem, I cant get any alone time with her"Franky said sighing.

Sanji was indeed a road block that stood in their way but Zoro had an idea, he asked Franky to meet him here again but at midnight, he told the cyborg he had a plan which pleased Franky.
