Becoming One

Answers

Chopper let Sanji leave the infirmary first once he was changed into some fresh clothes. The blonde saw everyone is gone. To get his mind off the situation for a while he looked at the inventory of his kitchen. Most of the meat is gone and fish but they still have some. There is also still some vegetables and fruits so he can make a stew and some juice. With that in mind he gets to work. Getting the water to boil, putting some basil and cilantro to add some flavor to the water. It'll make a big difference later. As the water boil he cut some vegetables, the basics, carrots, broccoli, onions and some bell peppers, also cut up the fish that's left. With the scrapes he set aside to make fried fish balls. The bones are set aside to be collected and grinded into bonemeal. Now that everything is cut and organized, the water still boiling he got out the cleaning supplies, as he was prepping he noticed the kitchen wasn't clean. So he cleaned and cooked. Going as far as cleaning the dining table and area around it. Even scrubbing the floor.

Anything to not think about what he and Zoro, who stayed with Chopper in the other room, have done. He doesn't want to think about it , so he won't. Since the others aren't here and no one is bothering him he's going to do what he can to keep himself busy.

And it worked, until he finished. With the table all cleaned and set, the appetizers made, first meal, then second meal, and sides if they want, drinks are done, two different types of juice, even made some banana pudding, plates and utensils laid out neatly and pretty he had nothing left to do, so he wait for everyone and his mind wandered off, into one direction.

Zoro.

But not just Zoro, the man himself. The knowledge that he and Zoro were in a cave together, naked doing things he'd like to do to a lady. On second thought maybe not. Zoro look bruised and couldn't walk meaning he wasn't gentle. The worst part is he doesn't remember anything. And the last thing he remembers he doesn't like because he wanted to see Zoro. For no reason, he just wanted to see him. And not to make fun of him or get a reaction of some sort, the typical, no, he wanted to go to Zoro and lay with him, willing to forget everyone to just take a nap with him. The need got got so bad his mind went blank. Next thing he knows he's waking up in a cave mostly naked with Zoro who was fully naked. It doesn't take a genius piece the puzzle.

He needs to asks the others, speaking of here they all came besides Chopper and Zoro. They all walk in silently, taking a deep breath in then out. As they go to their seat they give Sanji a grin and nod. Telling him his food smells good, of course. They all sit and start to fill their plates. Sanji waits for Chopper and Zoro. But they don't come out. He decides to go to them.

Walking into the infirmary room the first person his eyes is Zoro who lay on his side as he slept. Sanji watch for a second then turns to chopper who is staring at him, remembering why he's there. "I cooked dinner." Sanji answers, his eyes, that he didn't control turn to Zoro again.

"I'll join but let Zoro rest. He won't believe me but he has a slight fever. I gave him medicine anyways, he'll be out for a while." Chopper says getting down from his seat at the desk. Sanji silently nods. He watches as Zoro sleeps, Chopper trotting past. Sanji continue to stare at the green haired man peacefully sleeping. He didn't think, his mind blank as he stare.

He's knocked out of his daze by Usopp shouting at Luffy behind him. Sanji shakes his head then closes the door, body turning to the table everyone sat at. His body moving by itself. When he finally came to, fully he had set a bowl of soup, some juice and pudding aside for Zoro. Sanji doesn't pay too much attention to the action. He would have done it anyway. Especially knowing Zoro is sick. Zoro never gets sick, not just because Chopper is that good but because Zoro has a body build like a brick wall. Then again Zoro never has been naked in cave, having sex and sleeping.

With Zoro's food aside he joins the others at the table, clearing away the empty plates. Guess now is a good time as any to ask questions.

"So," Sanji starts, the table getting quiet, "what happened while... my mind was gone?" he ask.

"What do you want to know?" Nami asks back. Sanji thinks about it.

"Everything," he answers, "what happened after I put away the groceries?" he wonder. He missed six days. His body moved by itself for six days. He wants to know what he did. "Until you found us." he adds. Nami looked at Robin. The girls staring at each other.

"You and Zoro were hugging each other!" Luffy shouts, taking a breath from stuffing his face. Then starting again with any food in his reach.

"What?" Sanji looked at the others for confirmation.

"You did." Usopp confirms. "And not just hug but you both were sticking to each other like glue and sniffing each other."  The longed nose man adds.  Sanji couldn't believe it. But the face they all made confirmed it. They were in between laughing and cringing. Sanji's mouth fell open. They did what?

"I don't think you heard but we had to keep you and Zoro away from each other while I get ingredients to make an antidote for the pollen. If not then the pollen will make you and Zoro want to... be together." Chopper says.

"You mean have sex?" Sanji asks. He wants to make everything clear.

"Yes. So we separated you two as Chopper, Luffy and Usopp gathered the ingredients. Nami and Robin kept you in the room, while Franky and I kept Zoro in the infirmary."

"How long did that take?" Sanji has to ask because obviously Chopper didn't make it fast enough.

"It took two days to gather everything and two more days to make it." Chopper answers.

"It was almost done when you both escaped." Usopp answers, there with Chopper helping when they got the call. Sanji nods. So for four days he was locked up in the room with Nami and Robin. Just them. If Sanji didn't know he'd think he flirted with the girls but if the pollen made him obsess over Zoro then he can see that he didn't do that. But how did he escape? No way he did, not if it meant hurting the ladies. And if he did try to escape sneakily then Robin would have stopped him, she has eyes everywhere. That leaves one answer, Zoro escaped, did he hurt the ladies. Sanji seethes at the thought for a second. He has to know so he looks at the girls.

"Zoro didn't hurt you did he? When he escaped?" Sanji asks worried. What if they are hurt? Zoro wouldn't hold back if he wasn't himself.

"Zoro didn't escape from them. He did knock us out though." Franky answers. Nami and Robin looking at each other again. Should they tell him? But they don't want him to be angry at Zoro when he did nothing if they are being honest they would have preferred being in Franky and Brook place. Being knocked out in a second rather than being kicked. Plus Brook said he found his violin safely on the chair. Zoro somehow knocked them out without touching them, and gently placed Brooks violin on a chair. Even mindless Zoro was still kind. Imagine if the girls were watching Zoro, he might have put them on a bed.

"You escaped from us." Robin answers. The others silent as they watch Sanji knowing how he felt about hurting woman.

"What?" Sanji asks softly. His mind racing. If he escaped from them then he must have done something. He look at Nami wanting someone to say it's not true but she looked away as she robbed her stomach. It still hurt and there's a large, Sanji sized shoe print in the form of a bruise on her stomach. 

He hurt the ladies?
