It's been an week since the party and Sanji can't stop thinking about how amazing Zoro's friends were. He sort of had pretty good attachment now with them all. Chopper would contact him daily, he was also added in many Groupchats like The Straw hats, Just Men No Women, If Zoro lost Contact Us, Time for Gossip and many more.

Each containing a certain amount of people based on the name.

Life would be total bliss for him if Zoro had been spending time with him for the last week. Ever since the morning after the party, Zoro had some serious talk with Robin and since then he has rarely sees the Marimo's face.

Today was Sunday and as usual Sanji was in the kitchen when he heard Zoro's room door creaking open. He quickly washed his hands and turned off the stove rushing out. Today he'll make sure to talk out with the older. The blonde had his mind made up.

"Seaweed we need to talk. " Sanji declared and settle down on the couch. The said male gulped hearing his name and unsurely walked towards the space besides the younger. Taking down the seat he asked, "What's the matter? "

"You answer me that! What is the matte! The past few days you've not been home for than an hour, always here you either sleep or leave early returning late night. Fine you did it for two days but a whole week..!?!?

Do you by any cha- "

"What don't want to live with you? Is that what you wanna say? " Zoro completed it for the younger who didn't look up just continued to stare down fiddling with fingers biting the lower lip harshly.

The green haired raised Sanji's chin with his index finger. He swiped the thumb on the lower lip stopping the biting of lips. Staring quietly back directly in the fear filled eyes Zoro let out a sigh and started his explanation after the boy calmed down.

"You see I'll get straight to business. It's not the right time and I don't want to pressure you. But you see when we found you on the borders of Korea, my team tried to find your whereabouts but nothing. There was just nothing. " Hearing the words uttered by Zoro, the blonde's eyes stared down again with him biting his quivering lips.

"Don't think about it much. I ain't gonna abandon you after bring you here just cause you annoy a lo- " Zoro said doing the thumb and lip thing again. But to his dismay, his thumb was bitten by Sanji as the boy yelled, "Excuse me it's you who annoy me! Not the other way! "

"Yeah yeah whatever floats your ship, good thing was when you asked for help you spoke in Japanese, thankfully I understood and that's why we got an idea of the place you'll maybe be from. But wait- Oh geez I forgot something?! Oi tell me honestly you want to go back home right? "

The said male backed away, his eyes filled with fear again as his body started shivering. Sanji yelled not to let him go. The boy thrashed around on the Couch pulling his hair sobbing not wanting to go back the hell. Hell memories flashed in front of his eyes which he wished were forgotten.

It would be an understatement to say Zoro was shocked by the sudden behavior. He quickly pulled the boy closer to him and hugged the blonde. Sanji didn't calm down for few minutes until he eventually gave up and fell asleep.

The green haired just sat with a bear hugging and sleeping over him. He roamed around his fingers in Sanji's hair softly loving the silky touch. Deciding to skip lunch, he went and laid the boy in his room. Making sure the blonde was rightly tucked in the blankets he went to sleep as well.

Evening.

The sound of door bell ringing echoed into the house, Sanji groaned up waking to the sound. He walked outside and opened the door revealing a man dressed as a Cook with his blond moustache braided and long hat.

"You must be that little brat he was talking about. Where is that Eggplant? I mean Zoro. " With rough voice, the latter asked. Sanji moved to the side letting the man in as he informed the green haired must be asleep.

He soon handed some water to the Elder and rushed towards the Moss-head's room. Sanji knew knocking won't work, but the main thing was as he was about to open the door two things swooshed in his mind. One: he had never been in the room before, two: just remembered how he got into the bed and all the morning matter.

"Fuck! I did not just broke loose in front of him. Man up Sanji you are a Boy! You can't cry like this! Get a grip! Forget it, forget it! " Slapping his cheeks softly, the blonde entered the room. Staring widely at everything, the room was pretty simple and neat. He never thought it would radiate such homey feels just with few decors and minimalist things around.

"Hey Green-Monke! Wake up come on some one is here! "

"Lemme just- "

"Nothing! " Sanji uttered and jumped onto the sleeping one who sat up wide awake with the blonde laying on his body smirking mischievously. Before Zoro could catch the younger in his arms Sanji stood up and dragged the green haired outside.

"Owner Zeff! Good to see you! " Zoro smiled at the Elder sitting eating cookies which Sanji gave before. Zeff looked up from the cookies and smiled at the other. He noticed Zoro in front with linked arms with the other behind him.

"You too. Let's start soon, I have work left. " He sat down again with the two sitting down on the bigger couch.

"Meet him, this owner Zeff from a very renowned Restaurant Baratie. You're soon to be Father. " Zoro introduced the new man which made Sanji gasp, "What!? "

"Seems like you didn't clear out things with him, huh? " Zeff chuckled.

"It won't take much time. " Zoro replied and turned to Sanji taking his fiddling hands in his own.

"I actually didn't know any of your background or anything. Even if you were speaking Japanese,there was no one named Dartboard brow here in Japan. Not just Japan, in no where in the whole fucking world.

To live here freely you needs something and that's the identity in papers. I actually didn't thought of the idea of returning to parents since you didn't talk about that even a bit so I kinda assumed they are no more. " Zoro finished, not wanting to create any misunderstanding. Zeff mentally chuckled a little at what the green haired called his soon to be son.

"Yes. You are right. I don't have any parent. " Sanji uttered, face blank no emotion whatsoever.

"Oh I see. So I guess it's good. I watched you for few days and saw you really love cooking and when I was searching someone to be able to take in a child I found him. Owner Zeff agreed to look after you and has given me the permission to use his name as Dad. "

"B-but do I have to live with him? "

"You see I'm on a bit of vacation for you but when my work starts, it gets a bit serious and fatal also most of the time I'm not even home for days. So on those days yes you will be living with him. And every Sunday you'll be staying over with him since he is your father. "

"He- he is no one I know h-how!? " Sanji asked. Hearing his response Zeff sighed and tried assuring him, "I understand where you are getting you're worry from. But I assure you, I won't let anyone harm you in my guidance. Also we talked about letting you in School. After school you'll be helping me in the Kitchen of Baratie and that's how you'll spend your time with me. "

School? Parent? New life? Was Sanji ready for this? Spending his whole life in a cage filled with Monster who were his own blood, he is ready to take over new life with people unknown? Yes the Straw hat crew was amazing but will everyone be?

If not how is gonna survive?

"Don't think about it so much. We are not forcing you. I'm here just to meet you and the cookies you've cooked, they seem pretty decent so I am sure you'll do fine in Baratie. Alright then I'll take my leave. " Zeff chuckled taking another bite of the cookie, along with him Zoro nodded and hummed.

The green haired was also chomping down on the Cookies, Sanji smacked his hands and glared at him for eating the guest's food. The conservation ended with the blonde asking some time to think and Zeff agreeing and leaving them be.
