The Words I Love You

Wedding

Sanji never thought he would be out of place as much as he is at the moment. Sitting in a crowd of people he did not know, and in turn did not know him. At least now he knows what's going on. He's at a wedding, which feels weird because he wasn't invited and is going as Zoro's plus one, even though he's not here. As soon as everyone got seated Zoro left, telling the blonde he'll see him later. It sucks that he is seated in the front along with parents and grandparents. He felt very out of place because of the situation but looking at the other side of the room he can say Zoro's whole family sticks out like a sore thumb. Besides Zoro's brothers and sisters, who all have crazy hair colors, even their cousins do. Green, purple, pink, and every other color on the rainbow, while the bride's family all have black hair. 

He didn't stick out to much because of his blonde hair but he had blonde hair, that none of the others had. Lucky for them they were to busy talking with each other to pay any attention to him. Sanji even saw the familiar red hair of Bonney's husband. 

It didn't take long for the wedding to start, the music started to play getting everyone to quiet down. All heads turn to Mihawk and Smoker walking down the aisle, Sanji watched silently as they made their way, Smoker standing on the altar while Mihawk sat down. Their eyes connected for a second before Sanji turned away, not wanting to draw unnecessary attention to himself, which didn't work because Mihawk stared at him, Sanji could feel it. 

The next couple down the aisle is Perona and some random guy, who she did not look happy being next to, then Bonney in a dress like Perona's with a random guy, it felt nice to be apart of this. Sanji smiled as Zoro came down, arms licked with a random woman. The woman going with the other bridesmaids, as Zoro went behind Smoker and the other two men. Zoro gave Sanji a smile that he returned, not feeling so out of place, but still upset, Zoro was close but not that close.

Everyone stood up as the bride came down. Sanji knew who she is, so them being at the Baratie was a formal get together before the wedding. It's their wedding. She looked very beautiful but Sanji's eyes went Zoro, who look like a kid who was bored. Especially when they all sat down and they did their vows. Tashigi, if Sanji remembers correctly, and Smoker look very in love with each other, happy even. Sanji wonders how long they've been planning this?

When they finally kissed, after the I dos the whole room roared into life. Everyone was either whistling, shouting out their yays and clapping. They all are happy to be here. As they watched the couple go back down the aisle together Sanji senses Zoro standing next to him. "I'll see you later. I have to go and take pictures with them." Zoro says before going with the others following them.

So once again he's left along. Following the crowd to the reception area. Sanji thought the ceremony had a lot of people but the reception area had way more people. And they already seemed to be having fun, people were dancing, sitting down and eating snacks, there were some kids playing around. The blonde went ahead and found something to occupy himself, he went over to the snack bar and got some snacks. Very pleased by how good the snacks were. He must have had a bite of almost everything before Zoro scared him. "You almost gave me a heart attack." Sanji tells him with his hand over his heart, feeling it beat wildly against his chest. Sanji takes a deep breath to calm himself, Zoro just smiled widely at the blondes scream. "Are you done with the pictures?" 

"Yeah, now all they're doing are the couple photos." Zoro answers as he grabs a small sandwich himself. 

"So your brother and Tashigi." Sanji says watching as Zoro put the whole sandwich in his mouth, the sandwich was small, maybe two or three bites but that doesn't mean Zoro has to shove the whole thing in his mouth. 

Zoro swallowed then looked away, "and I was the last to know." 

"Really?"

"Yup, that day you, Nami and Robin were stalking me, he told me. By then they had already planned most of the stuff." Zoro says sending a small glare at Sanji then looking around. "Where are the drinks?" Zoro asks himself.
