A week went by with too of the crew members out of commission. First there was Zoro who now looked at least five months pregnant and was none to happy about it. Chopper gave him strict orders saying not to move around to much and that it was also an order from his master. That just added to Zoro's wonderful mood. The second was Sanji who refused to leave Zoro's side and if he did it was to cook the crew lunch or dinner, Nami and robin had started cooking breakfast so Sanji could sleep in with Zoro but always let Sanji cook the other meals.

"Hey how's Zoro doing?" Usopp asked one day as Sanji began preparing lunch. Sanji froze looking at the ground.

"Not well Usopp he is exhausted, Chopper made him a sleeping medicine, but it seems like the kid is keeping him awake at night, plus he can barely stand on his own, Franky has had to carry him around the ship if he had to use the restroom or something." Sanji mutters running a hand through his hair. "Here Usopp can you stir this while I run Zoro his lunch?" Usopp nodded moving to take the spoon from Sanji's hand but froze when Sanji sent him a serious look.

"Don't worry, I won't let Luffy near it." Sanji nodded at Usopp's smart reply before grabbing Zoro's lunch from the fridge. "If you need any help, ask Robin or Nami." Than he was gone.

"Hey Sanji is that for me?!" Luffy cried running at Sanji, who side stepped sending the captain straight into the Adam wall of the Sunny.

"No it's not it is for Zoro." Sanji said beginning to walk in the direction of Zoro's room, which was towards the back of the ship.

"Can I see him now?" Luffy asked taking a step after Sanji.

"No."

Luffy froze brown eyes full of regret. Without another look Sanji stopped in front of Zoro's door blue eyes darting back to Luffy as he vanished around the corner.

"Zoro I'm coming in kay." Sanji called, No reply came from inside the room meaning he was asleep or just not listening. Grasping the handle he eased the door open sending a quiet thank you to Franky for checking the hinges on the doors so frequently so they made no noise when opened. Light spilled over the unmoving form on the bed, Zoro was sprawled on his side so it was easier for him to breath, at least that's what Chopper told him to do, a thick arm was supporting his head, the other draped almost protectively over his stomach. Sanji placed the tray of food on a table near the door that also housed Zoro's precious swords which gleamed in the light. With a small smile he closed the door with his leg moving silently to the side of the bed. Sanji knew he could never sneak up on the swordsman but it was fun to try anyway. Zoro uttered a groan as Sanji climbed in next to him pressing his stomach to Zoro's back, hands sliding to find the curve of his rounding stomach before moving in slow soothing circles. The baby bucked under his touch earning a slight gasp from Zoro who cracked his one good eye open to find Sanji's lips inches from his ear.

"How are you feeling today my love?" Sanji whispered bitting at Zoro's ear.

"Does "like crap" seem like a good enough answer?" Zoro grunted shifting in Sanji's arms so he was facing Sanji his belly pressed up against the cook's.

"Well that is not the answer I was hoping for, but I guess it means that your still alive." Sanji said placing a kiss to Zoro's forehead. Zoro nodded when a load banging startled both of the rooms occupant's. Sanji bolted up right as the door opened revealing a frantic Nami. Zoro struggled to sit up but with the weight from his stomach, and his vanishing strength he only managed to get up on one arm before crashing back to the bed head falling into Sanji's lap.

"Nami what is it?" Sanji asked.

"He's here, Robin just spotted his ship." She said eyes falling to Zoro who was once again trying to sit up. Sanji went pale looking frantically at the struggling swordsman before leaping off the bed and running from the room toward the front of the ship. Zoro called after him and tried to get up again, but was pushed back onto the bed by a wide eyed Nami.

"No don't move Zoro, you know what will happen if you move."

"I don't care if it grows more, it is already big, I need to get to Sanji." Zoro growled trying to shove the witch of him.

"Why? What could you possible need to go to him for?" Nami asked still keeping a firm grip on the swordsman.

"Because...well." Zoro froze and a look of unease crossed his face.

"He raped me Nami." The word was only a whisper but to Nami it was as loud as a scream.

"What? Who raped you, Sanji?" Nami said her grip loosening on his shoulder.

"What no where did you get idea?"

"Than who are you referring to Zoro?"

"Mihawk, it was Mihawk Nami." Zoro said eyes falling to the round curve of his stomach. Nami's mind was screaming. Mihawk had taken advantage of Zoro? Was he still injured when this happened? Is that how Zoro lost his eye? From self defense?

"Why do you think he came so quickly?" Zoro said.

"Zoro where you still injured when he forced himself onto you?" Nami asked touching Zoro's face as a sister would. Zoro nodded not even moving as Sanji's voice rang out from the deck. They sat in silence for a few minutes Nami comforting the somewhat trembling swordsman.

Zoro's eyes flew to the door as a shadow fell over the bed. Hawkeye Mihawk stood in the doorway his golden eyes fixed on Zoro's stomach which was soon hidden by Zoro's thick arms and Nami's form, who had thrown herself in front of Zoro to hide him from Hawkeye's piercing gaze.

"Aww Roronoa I see you have gone and gotten yourself into a mess once again?" He sighed before taking a step into the room. "Let's get started shall we?"
