It had been three days. Where in the hell was Luffy?
Nami sat in the sand on the beach lightly banging her head against a stick trying to come up with a plan, Zoro was nowhere to be found.
"Where the hell is that moron?" Nami wondered aloud. Zoro had muttered something about something but she hadn't paid attention. She was worried; the crew should have been back by then. Nami pushed herself up from the sand and dusted her legs off. She was starting to get a little burnt, she was surprised since she spent all day outside on the boat and nothing had happened. Nami headed back into the depth of the jungle ignoring her growling stomach pleading with her for some of Sanji's delicious food. Nami's mind wondered to last night in the cave when Zoro was actually being nice to her. It seemed like it had been months since the two were actually kind to each other. Nami thought back to Robin's words.
"Sexual tension?" Nami questioned aloud. She thought of the many time she had seen Zoro shirtless, and she had flashed the men onboard quite frequently to get what she wanted. She wondered pass the cave they called home and found herself digging deeper in the jungle abyss. Everywhere she turned strange trees and plants sprouted from the ground covered in a variety of colors and fruits and bugs. She wasn't sure if any of the fruits were edible. What Nami would give for an orange at that moment?
"Oi! NAMI!" Zoro's voice rang through the jungle as he spotted his red headed crew member. He walked toward her hastily.
"Are those oranges?!" Nami exclaimed picking on from Zoro's plenty and smelling it. "Where did you get these?"
Zoro just grunted in response. Nami took half into her arms and lead Zoro back to the cave. She gently set them down.
"There's a small fresh water spring near here." Zoro grunted biting into a juicy orange. "It's a hot spring."
"Weird for an island like this…" Nami mused aloud. Zoro started in on another orange. "Why don't you go catch us some more of that shitty fish?"
"Why don't you do it?" He snapped back. Nami rolled her eyes.
"I want to go to the hot spring before dark." She stated. She smelled like death, she probably looked like death too.
Zoro grunted in response. Nami grabbed her pack and took off toward the direction of earlier; hoping Zoro wouldn't eat all of HER oranges while she was gone.
Nami soon found the hot spring with little difficulties and shed her clothes. She felt exposed. Her mind drifted back to when she got bitten and nearly died from being exposed, she ignored the thought and pressed on. She couldn't stand the salty grime anymore.
Zoro wandered through the woods hoping to come across the orange grove again, he had already sworn it was over there three times. Zoro new this time he was definitely heading in the right direction. He thought to the Crew, knowing they should have come back for them by now. Luffy maybe many things, childish and naïve, but he would never abandon his Nakama which is why Zoro respected him so. Also why he tried to save Nami and ended up stuck on the damn island.
Not that Zoro minded being stuck on a ship with two skimpily dressed women, but Nami took the cake for biggest bitches. She still hadn't bought him his new third sword. Now he was stuck on a small island with her, and all of her complaints. Knocking her out would be great.
Zoro stumbled upon the springs with a very nude Nami basking in all its glory. Contempt sighs squeaked from the navigator as she slowly dipped herself in the water. Zoro dove into the bushes to keep from being seen. This reminded him of the many times the boys had tried to sneak into the bath to see Nami and Robin.
Nami's hands gently caressed herself. Zoro nearly drooled. It had been so long. No. He wouldn't let his mind come to that. He looked over at a small skimpy pair of panties neatly piled near the entrance of the springs. He wanted to see her in those, better out of them.
Zoro grunted. Maybe that's why they had fought so much. Could he be attracted to Nami? Or could he really just want to bludgeon her to death? Zoro couldn't get his eyes off her. Suddenly…
"Oi! Nami!"
