24th chapter! Greetings to my loyal readers! :D I am in a really good mood and the story is developing all the time in my head! I hope you are pleased with the story and do not hesitate to send review or pm so that I know if I did a good job :) My beta is fangirling a little bit too much and she is blushing while reading kissing scenes...I wonder how she will react when she reads about ***** :D

...

The day was pretty normal day on Sunny-Go. Well, apart from the fact that their captain was forced to catch fish all day long to fill their fridge. Zoro was babysitting him all the time and even though he fell asleep every now and then, he would wake up to the noises of Luffy falling into the sea.

Sara was trying to figure out why these guys were pirates in the first place. For her it looked like most of them were idiots who had no hope in surviving. She saw their idiotic captain, she saw their idiotic hammer-trio who couldn't remember they can't swim, she saw a swordman whose neck could be cut while he was napping and even though she didn't want to admit it, she saw a gentleman who would swoon after women and be trapped easily.

Well, she had few days left before the next island. She wanted to have as much memories as possible before leaving the ship. She wanted to spend a lot of time with Sanji and treasure all the memories she could make.

...

Sanji was back to work even though he was feeling slightly dizzy and maybe a little bit like throwing up. Chopper had warned him that when the antidote attacks the bacteria, he might feel a little bit sick. Sanji didn't want to spend yet another day in the infirmary, however, so he forced himself to get back to work.

Brook came into the kitchen, offering his help. Luffy wasn't feeling like listening to music so the musician had nothing to do.

"Well, you could always chop those vegetables for me..." Sanji adviced and Brook grabbed the knife.

"Hey Curly-cook!" Franky greeted the chef when he stepped into the kitchen."Nami ordered me to ask when the food is ready!"

"Tell my lovely Nami-san that it will take around half an hour!" Sanji said and Franky raised a thumb.

"Roger that! Nami is going to waste water again with one luxurous bath..." Franky sighed and Sanji's eyes opened widely.

"NAMI-SAN IS GOING TO BATH?!" Sanji swooned and danced around the kitchen."Brook, this is our chance!"

"I like your logic, Sanji-san!" Brook cheered and they were about to step out from the kitchen when they stopped to look at Franky."You are not coming with us?"

"Sorry but this super cyborg is not interested in peeking on women!" Franky explained but saw the grin on the blond's face.

"You are dishonouring your title of hentai like that...a true hentai would never skip a chance like this!" Sanji explained.

"Well that's something new..." Franky wondered out aloud."Fine. I will join you guys to keep my title!"

...

"Really, were you trying to peek on her again?" Zoro sighed at Brook."You guys never learn."Then he looked a little further and saw the cyborg with a bang in his head next to the skeleton."Not you too, Franky?"

"Sorry but I had to hold onto my title as hentai!" Franky explained but it didn't make any sense to Zoro. As far as he knew, the hentai wasn't really that kind of a hentai who would peek on girls. He just walked around wearing only panties and some flashy hawaii-shirt.

"Brook, will you ever learn that Nami is always on her guard?" Zoro hissed at the skeleton.

"Don't blame me, Zoro-san! It was Sanji-san's idea!" Brook defended himself and Zoro noticed the blond rubbing his head aside the wall. When Sanji raised his head to look at Zoro, the swordman just looked at him coldly.

"I am dissapointed in you, Ero-cook," Zoro said and turned away. He felt pretty hurt by the fact that Sanji was still drooling after women even though they had some sort of relationship. Or did they? It wasn't anything official but they had kissed, many times, right? And the blond hadn't pushed him away or rejected him. At least not directly.

...

Sanji threw up before going to sleep. He thought of informing Chopper but then again, it could be nothing to worry about. Besides, he was a part of monster trio! He couldn't whine about small things like that! Good nights sleep would be enough for him and he would feel pretty much normal tomorrow again!

It was already dark and everyone expect Sanji and the person in watch were probably asleep. He tried to walk quietly back to the boys bedroom but felt someone's presence behind his back.

Then he was pushed violently against the wall. He groaned in pain but didn't dry to escape when he saw the very familiar, green hair.

"What the hell do you think you are doing, Baka-Marimo?!" Sanji hissed at Zoro. It was so dark Sanji couldn't see the expression the swordman had on his face.

Zoro didn't bother to answer. He started to kiss the blond firmly and his hands roamed all over the blond's body. Sanji tried to push the agressive swordman away but his hands were not as strong as Zoro's and he couldn't use his legs when the swordman stood too close.

"Zoro, stop it - - !" Sanji tried to order the man when he started to trail kisses from his neck to his chest. The man was slowly unbuttoning his shirt and Sanji had nowhere near enough power to push the man away. Besides, he started to get affected by the swordman's harassment

"Zoro, listen to me - -!" Sanji almost begged, feeling his body starting to betray him. The idiot didn't listen to him, however.

"STOP IT,YOU MARIMO!" Sanji shouted and used his remaining force to push the man away from him. The moment the swordman let go of him, he fell on the ground when his legs couldn't hold him straight. Trying to catch his breath and stop the ridiculous panting, he couldn't look at Zoro's direction. He was flustered and blushed way too much to his own liking. "What the hell you think you are doing?!"

Zoro just stared at the blond innocently."Oh?" Zoro voiced out."I thought that it was you who misbehaved first,"the swordman hissed angrily.

"Wha- - " Sanji staggered. He didn't understand what the former pirate hunter meant, at least not immediately. When he did, he sighed deeply."I am sorry if that disturbed you. It's just that old habits die hard."

Zoro hadn't expected that the blond would apologice so quickly. "Why did you push me away?" he asked when nothing clever came to his mind.

"Eh?" Sanji wondered.

"Well, ratherly why didn't you push me away earlier," Zoro inquired and Sanji gazed at the swordman.

"It's..." Sanji hesitated for a while, not sure what to answer."I am not sure..."

Zoro was about to ask more guestions when he was sent flying by a kick. "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR?!" Zoro shouted at Sanji who had kicked him. All he could hear was Sanji cursing under his breath."Ero-cook?"

Sanji pulled the spear out of his shoulder and groaned in discomfort. "I saved your sorry ass, you idiot!" Sanji hissed, sounding annoyed by the whole situation.

"OI, ZORO,SANJI!" Usopp shouted from the crow's nest. "MARINES ARE HERE!"

"Why didn't you inform us earlier?!" Zoro yelled back at the sniper.

"Are you an idiot or something?! It's dark and misty out there!" Sanji defended Usopp and heard others rushing out of their beds. He removed his suit jacket and tied it around his shoulder tightly. He would ask Chopper to check the wound later: for now, they had marines to beat.
