"Do you think thats what happened the other day?"Franky suggested.

Robin shrugged her shoulders before walking over to him, she wanted to know what had happened between Nami and Zoro, that day she had heard them but for once she didnt use her ability to hear for she thought Nami would tell her later like she did however the younger girl did not for she came back bloody. Maybe she try and ask but Franky's arm wrapping around her shoulder caused her to come out of her thoughts, she smiled up at him and let him lead her away, the cyborg blushed as he lead her.

He had finally manage to pluck up the courage to do something, Zoro was right to say just head straight into it, never let fear take over but now if only the swordsman could listen to his own advice however that seemed to take a jump back yet forward with the current situation.

The next morning, Luffy had woken them all up when he had spotted an island. Usopp steered the ship over and soon they were all in the kitchen, eating then Chopper had decided to be brave, when he was sleeping last night. He remembered the conversation he had with Nami, she had said if they hadnt argued then they wouldnt be in this situation.

"Nami what were you arguing with Zoro with that day?"he asked innocently.

Everyone had stopped eating, Nami placed her fork down and look at the table, Sanji said he was curious wondering what the swordsman had done wrong however this caused Nami to stand up quick. The young girl threw Sanji a dirty look and told him that Zoro had not done anything wrong that day then she stormed out, Luffy looked at Zoro and to his surprised, the man was gone.

"Ill go find him"Franky said standing up, Chopper followed him out saying it was his fault for bringing it up.

Robin had already walked out, they all knew if the navigator was angry, the older women would be the only one who could get a single word out. Luffy pushed his plate away, not feeling hungry anymore. Usopp looked at the door before turning back to the others, Brook was in deep thought before he stepped to the door before leaving, the sharpshooter wondered why then looked at Sanji who was pouting.

"Nami-swan"he mumbled.

How dare he think it was Zoro's fault, sometimes Sanji was so annoying. Nami sat down on the railing, looking down at the water, she wiped the tears from her eyes when she head the footsteps of someone.

"Go away"she said trying to calm her voice.

Feeling the gentle arm wrap around her shoulders, Nami turned her head slightly to see Robin who had a frown upon her face. The older women asked the same question.

"What happened.

Flashback

Nami looked into the mirror, today was the day she was going to tell Zoro, no more reason to hid it. Truth be told, she was very afraid but she could no longer keep this locked away no matter the result though he told her that he would never see her the same way would hurt but this was a risk she was going to take so she fixed her long red hair into a pony tail and then headed out of the door.

She knew were he would be so the younger girl walked to the front of the Sunny Go with a smile upon her face, she had to be positive. Nami passed Franky who was talking to Usopp about a new feature to the ship, she could hear Luffy laughing along with Chopper.

Most likely fishing and Luffy was probably making faces at the small doctor.

The cook would be most likely in the kitchen making a drink for her and Robin, Brook she could not spot and soon she saw her target. Making her way to him, she saw he was sleeping so she tapped him gently and watched as he stirred slightly. This annoyed her so she did it again, yet nothing so she raised her foot and stamped into his stomach causing him to wake up coughing.

"Witch"he growled.

"I need to talk to you"she said as she pointed to the railing away from the others.

Nami could see he was still annoyed at her but she didnt care at this moment for this was her chance to finally confess. So once they were away from everyone and she made sure no one was around even Robin's pesky ears, the navigator began to tell Zoro how she felt about him.

Flash back Ended.

"So she confessed her love to him"Franky repeated with a shocked face.

Brook nodded as he looked at the cyborg before returning his hollow stare to Zoro. After leaving the kitchen, the skeleton had followed after the guys, he didnt have to walk far for Zoro only moved to the railing.

The same place, Nami had confessed.

"How do you know Brook?"Chopper asked.

"I was walking back from my stroll when I stumbled upon them, not wanting to ruin Nami's mood, I stayed back to listen"he replied.

Franky looked to Zoro and saw that the swordsman was watching the water, he moved over to his friend and place a hand on his back, this caused Zoro to look up and the cyborg smiled at him gently. Chopper had asked Brook to carry on with the story, the skeleton nodded as he took a seat on the railing next to the swordsman, he first looked at him and waited.

The swordsman nodded.

Flashback

After she had finished her speech, Nami looked at Zoro with bright eyes but a frown was soon upon her face when she saw his facial expression. The swordsman did not look happy, he was frowing and was looking at the ground, this slowly caused little bits of her heart to chip away into the wind so she waited for him to say something but when he didnt she asked him if he had anything to say.

"I.."

"You what?"she asked.

Nami really wanted him to tell her that he loved her as well but that was not the case.

"I dont know"

That was all he could get out and soon her heart finally gave way, it broke, a few tears ran down her cheek and he hated himself for doing that so he tried to reach out to her but Nami moved away from her. So many emotions ran through her, she was sad, scared, disappointed etc but the one she would let him know of was anger.

"You dont know, I laid out my heart to you and you dont know. You are such a souless man Zoro, Why in the hell did it have to be you, why couldnt it be Sanji, he would of returned it"she screamed at him.

She had enough so she turned around and ran to the railing then she jumped off the Sunny Go and made her way into the jungle, Zoro saw in the corner of his eye that Sanji was going to run after her and he would not allow it.

This was between him and Nami.

Zoro ran quickly, pushing Sanji out the way and running after Nami.

Flashback Ended.

"He never said anything to me when he caught up and then those guys came but Robin he didnt say anything after I laid my heart out to him"Nami cried.

Robin rubbed the younger girl's back as she cried into her shoulder, the older women felt bad for Nami that she was kinda rejected however she knew differently. Franky had told her that the swordsman had deep feelings for Nami as well, maybe he was not prepared for her confession, maybe he wanted to confess first.

"Nami listen to me, Zoro cares so much about you"she whispered gently.

"No he doesnt"Nami replied.

The cyborg had trusted her to not tell Nami but the navigator was like her sister and she could not keep this away from her.

"He does, Zoro has been going to Franky for help and when he tries to tell you, he ends up messing up and that causes you two to argue"Robin answered.

The younger girl could not believe what she was hearing from Robin but she could feel her shattered heart slowly piece together again, she smiled up at the older women before walking off. Robin followed and noticed the four guys, Zoro looked so sad but she watched as Nami walked over to Zoro, she held her hand out to the swordsman with a smile and he smiled back.

He took hold of it and they both walked, well he still moved like a ape, they both headed to her room. Franky stood next to her and asked her what she had done, with a smile she turned around and told them all.

"I told her the truth"she said.

Franky was happy and fine that Robin had told Nami, maybe the swordsman and navigator could work something out after they sorted out Zoro. Chopper skipped back to the kitchen with a smile, they guessed that he was going to tell the others that everything was good with Nami and Zoro then soon they heard the loud laughter of Luffy and Usopp saying he knew everything was going to be fine.

The skeleton pulled out his violin and began to play a up lifting song, Nami had fallen asleep to the tune and Robin had told the others that they would explore the island tomorrow once the younger girl was feeling much better.

Luffy looked out to the island as they got closer, he knew that Sanji was almost finished with dinner but he couldnt shake off the feeling of something watching him. The captain could locate the source but ran into the kitchen once Usopp call his name, Nami was with them as was Zoro and they were all enjoying their meal.

Soon after dinner, Nami had retreated to the bathroom to wash and Zoro followed her as always but this time he brought Chopper with him. Robin was in the library reading when she heard the footsteps of Franky, looking up she smiled but frowned when she saw his frown so she asked her what was the matter.

"What if someone on this ship liked you more than nakama"he said.

"Ill tell them that I see everyone as nakama and nothing more"Robin replied as she stood up and walked over to him.

So this was how Nami had felt, Franky was about to turn around but then he felt the gentle hand on his cheek, he looked down at Robin who was smiling up at him. How could she still be smiling, he metal heart was breaking down then her lips moved, at first he couldnt hear anything but she kept repeating the sentence until it became clear to him.

"Then I would tell them that my feelings are for Franky only, if he would accept them"she said.

"Really"he asked.

Robin nodded and he busted out into a big grin before telling her that he would accept her love as long as she would accept his. They both laughed before sitting down and she began to read to him, Brook grinned as he walked away. He was glad one couple had been successful, deep down in his bones he knew the other one would be too but first they had to pass the barriers that blocked them.
