Hi guys! Wassup? Angellious97 here!

Sorry it took so long for me to update, there were a lot of things going on and now I'm finally able to update this chapter. Um, really, I'll try to update things more quickly from now on, but I can't make any guarantees. (my laptop has been stolen by the techs (theystillcan'tfixit))

I made a poll for this story that was available in my profile. I officially announce that this story will be based on SanZo and maybe other couples. Thank you to the people who voted in that poll, and I hope that most of you will be satisfied with the outcome in this story!

To my beautiful, absolutely wonderful reviewers:

Kathi1225: Thank you for reviewing, and I totally agree with you. I'll try to get my laptop back as fast as I can, so please anticipate the upcoming chapters!

kaguraaa: Thank you! Unfortunately, I'm not really fluent with Spanish, but I'll really try to respond to your reviews the best I can! Continue to read this story and I'll try to respond back to you in Spanish. ;)

zosan to an unhealthy level: Yeah, I'll try to continue this story and make it as good as I can! Ah, Sanji is domming in this fanfic. Sorry if it disappoints you, I might make a ZoSan fanfic later. Thank you for reviewing!

kaguraaa: Thank you for reviewing for every update! I really appreciate it! Your view on the pairings in the story are views I can respect. I hope you review again soon!

guess who: Both of your reviews showed up! I really appreciate your reviews for my story. Um, there was a similar fanfic to this that was made years ago. The idea for this story is based on that and other things, but this story's plot will be different than the fanfic (I think) you're talking about. I'm sorry for worrying you, and I hope that you'll enjoy this fanfic and its plot.

Guest: Yes, I'm planning on making this story on SanZo. It wasn't a good idea to set that poll up, but I thought that my readers for this story would appreciate having a choice for my story. I set up the poll because I had some doubts about this story, but I admit it was a stupid idea to set up the poll. If you want to see the poll results, they are posted on my account page!

Kathi1123: Yeah, there are a lot of rare Zoro pairings that haven't really been written about. I really do like SanZo, and I hope you like this fanfic!

P.S The poll will be closed this week, very soon.

Zoro sensed the stares of his classmates on his back, their gazes boring into him until he could almost feel the whispers and occasional glares, Electric currents were running down his spine because of the uncomfortable feelings that he got. Ugh, this is why he didn't want to transfer into this school. He knew that the idiots would inevitably come in and ruin his day like this. The letters written on the blackboard were hard to see with his blurry glasses. And his wig felt uncomfortable on his head. It was a good thing that he knew that something like this would happen. He had fastened his wig on securely beforehand. An elephant could crash into his wig and nothing would happen- to the wig, anyways.

Damn it, Ace, Luffy. They weren't supposed to burst into the classroom like that. He had hoped that they would realize that he was in their school as a new student later. Preferably at a time where no one could notice them. His plan had backfired.

Zoro gripped his pencil harder, scrawling down notes that Mrs. Nico was writing down on the blackboard. He wanted to hope that the class would slowly forget about this incident and would settle down. But he already knew that gossip about him would spread around the school- and that he would be the center of it. He was going to throw those idiots into a lake and watch them drown. Then throw them into an incinerator. It wasn't like gossip was going to kill him, though. He was just going to have to deal with all this shit and come out unscathed. He hoped. He glanced at Nami, who mouthed at him, 'just ignore them.'

When class finally ended, he practically threw his supplies and pencil case into his bag, then ran the hell for the door, ignoring any calls that were sent after him. School gossip would spread fast, but he probably wouldn't be bothered by the students until lunch. Anyways, he would have to beat up those 2 idiots at that time anyways.

Two periods passed, and then it was time for lunch.

By then, the gossip had completely spread, and when Zoro stepped into the cafeteria, all eyes were on him, whispering, shooting sharp little arrows of contempt his way.

"His outfit is an utter…"

"Bleurgh..look at his glasses! Look at his hair!"

"Why are Luffy and Ace sempai so interested in him?"

"I heard that Ace-sempai kissed him in the classroom!"

"WHAT? A total piece of trash like him?"

"I know, right?! Why not me?!"

He gritted his teeth and moved on.

Then he heard the crashing sound of a small earthquake behind him. He knew that sound.

He only had so much time to freeze and start to run away when he felt two pair of hands latch onto him.

He only had time to swear as he was glomped from the back, sending him soaring then crashing down to the floor of the cafeteria.

"You little bas-OOOMPH!"

Well, at least the comments stopped.

A heavy silence had fallen over the cafeteria. Every eye was pinned onto the pair that had tackled the new transfer student- and the new transfer student himself lying on the floor, face slowly turning red as Ace and Luffy clutched onto him tighter, grinning like maniacs.

"GET THE HELL OFF ME, YOU BASTARDS!"

"Awww, but Zoroooo, we really really missed you!" Luffy pouted while he was hugging Zoro for all he was worth. Zoro was slowly turning different shades.

"Like you were going to get away from us anyways." Ace smirked while he was sitting on Zoro's back.

And meanwhile, Sanji and Ussop were dealing with all the shit they were dealing starting this morning. Really, it was surprising that they hadn't died of cardiac arrest already.

Nami was in the corner of the cafeteria, looking dryly at the heap of limbs sprawled onto the floor with her astonished friends. Really, she knew this was going to happen. She wasn't surprised. At all. She was tempted to go over to the middle of the cafeteria and teach them all a lesson. But she had friends to make, things to do. She would go to them later. Ace and Luffy were probably going to take Zoro somewhere else anyways.

Surprisingly, Sanji thought, Nami-swan didn't look that surprised.

Ace and Luffy, at this point, had been ignoring all the people staring at them and dragged Zoro up. They then shot out of the cafeteria, and promptly grabbed each of Zoro's hands and ran to the roof. Nami followed them, walking at a leisurely pace.

Zoro was still spluttering.

When they reached the roof, he tore his hands away from theirs and immediately gave them a big punch on the head. His blue complexion quickly turned to red.

"You little bastards-do you want to di-"

Ace and Luffy quickly backtracked.

"Well, would you have preferred to eat lunch in the cafeteria with everyone staring at you?"

"ZOROOO- BUT WE MISSED YOUUU~"

"What you did just made everything worse! People will have more to talk about now that you tackled me in the cafeteria-"

"Touché." They turned.

As they saw their orange haired friend standing near the entrance, Luffy's eyes started to water, and Ace gave her a friendly smirk.

"It's been a long time, Ace, Luffy. You guys haven't changed at all."

"NAMI! I MISSED YOU~" Luffy leapt over to her with rivers of tears streaming from his eyes.

"Oh, yo, Nami!" Ace casually greeted her with a wave, but his eyes were still roaming over Zoro- his Zoro.

"Ace, would you stop ogling over Zoro every time you see him? Luffy, I see you're still every bit of that idiot you've always been."

"Missed you too, Nami!"

"Anyways, why are you here?" Zoro asked.

"You made such a scene in the cafeteria, it's too chaotic in there right now. Would you mind playing your gay act somewhere else that's not so public?"

"It's not my fault. It's these two moron's lack of ability to think."

"Zoro! That's mean…"

"Hey, it's all because of our love for you, dear Zoro~"

"DO YOU WANT TO DIE, YOU BAST-"

"Calm down, Zoro. It's not like killing him will help, anyways."

"Yes it will. Yes it will."

Zoro was fuming by now. (Make the conversation a bit longer)

He really wanted to clobber these two up. But if he did…Nami would probably start to punch him for being so stupid (which he wasn't, only she seemed to think so). So he settled for an annoyed sigh instead.

"You shouldn't have caused a commotion. Now I'll have to deal with the rest of the class staring at my back every time I try to breathe."

"Sorry, Zoro!" Luffy said, without a hint of sincerity entering his voice.

Zoro hung his head. Somehow, Luffy apologizing just made everything worse. He grumbled silently.

"Hey, Zoro." Ace said without preamble. He suddenly had an infuriated expression on his face. His eyes were shadowed by his locks of hair hanging over his eyes.

"We heard what happened with Saga."

This is a really short update, and some of you might be angry with me for not updating for, like, half a year. I apologize for any frustrations you might have experienced with the dreadful slowness of this update…finals are coming up and I'm not prepared for any of them.

Good news is that there's going to be a chapter after this very soon, because this is a really brief chapter. Yeah…I don't think you'll have to wait that long now. Pretty soon I think I'll start to write omakes for every chapter!
