My Darling Wife

5

It was around two thirty in the morning when Zoro's phone started ringing. He was startled awake and quickly grabbed the phone. It was Law. "Hello." Zoro answered tiredly. "Roronoa, I hope you are settling well." Law's voice from the other end of the phone also sounded tired. "Yeah fine. Dart brow is stressed out. What did you find?" Zoro started to wake up a bit. "I found a small lead. One of the family members is in Glasgow. I don't know who, but I'll get back to you when I figure out who. Also, what time is it there?" Zoro looked at the small alarm clock on the bedside table. "Two twenty three. There is no way in hell I'm waking Sanji up for this. He needs to sleep." Zoro informed the other man. "Alright. I'll call you when I found something else." Zoro grunted in approval and hung up.

"Zoro?" Sanji called as he slowly opened the other man's door. "What is it Curly? Did I wake you?" Zoro got up and went to his partner, who was currently in baggy sweatpants and no shirt. "No, I was getting water. Who were you talking to?" Zoro brought the smaller man into his arms and led him to the bed. "Law. He found a small lead in Glasgow. He doesn't want us to act until he's got more intel." Zoro softly spoke as he pulled the blond into him. Sanji hummed as a confirmation that he understood. "Hey, you should go back to bed. It's been a long day for you." Sanji didn't respond. Zoro looked down to find the smaller man asleep in his arms. He sighed and scooped up the blond bridal style. He quietly made his way to the master suite. He gently laid down his partner and tucked the blankets snuggly around his small body. Sanji groaned a little as he situated himself to get more comfortable. Zoro allowed himself to smile. "Perfectly relaxed and comfortable, as you should." He gently moved his partner's hair and left him to a comfortable sleep.

Sanji woke up with a start. "Law had intel!" He exclaimed and fell out of bed. "Jesus." He cursed and found his legs all tangled up with the blankets. Zoro rushed in the room with a handgun. He searched the whole room before his eyes fell on the mess named Sanji. He sighed and put the gun on safety before setting it down. "Don't scare me like that." He breathed and helped his partner up. The blankets all slid off, but Sanji's sweat pants slid a little as well. There was little left for the imagination to run rampant, and it was getting to Zoro. "Pull up your damn pants." He grumbled and avoided looking at the blond. Sanji simply rolled his eyes and tugged the pants up until they loosely hung on his hips. "You can look now, pervert." Sanji growled, and Zoro gave him a dirty look. "Knock it off, Marimo. Now, what did Law say?" The blond inquired with excitement. "Of course you don't remember the details. Law found traces of a family member in Glasgow. Law doesn't know who, and he wants us to wait so he can get some more info. So day two of our civilian life begins with my wife getting tangled up in his sheets, and not in the fun way." Zoro explained and shot a smirk towards his partner. Sanji gave him the bird and walked to his closet. He pulled out an oversized hoodie and threw it on. "Let's see what I can make for breakfast with the little food we have." He glared at Zoro and sauntered out.

There were some eggs left over from baking, and there was also bread. Two whole loaves of it. Sanji began buttering the pan he was using and began cooking. When he finished, he dished up food for him and Zoro. "Toast and scrambled eggs. We need to go to the store and buy a shit ton of groceries." Sanji sat down across from his partner and picked at his food. He honestly wasn't that hungry. He had no appetite and didn't know why. "Problem. We don't have a car yet." Zoro bit into his toast and his nose scrunched up. "Yeah, no. Store bought bread is not my thing." He sighed and finished eating it. "We can worry about a car later. Food and personal hygiene stuff is more important. I'm also running a little low on foundation, concealer, and highlighter." Sanji listed, but it all went over Zoro's head. "What sort of womanly things are you talking about?" He asked, and that earned a kick in the shin. "I don't enjoy this! It's such a tedious task to put on makeup every day. Also, I hate long hair! I miss my short hair. It was so much simpler when I could simply run my fingers or a comb through it and it wouldn't friz up or get tangled! And styling this rats nest is the absolute worst!" Sanji complained and whined. "If you hate doing your hair so much I can do it for you." Zoro sighed and this caught Sanji's attention.

"You know how to do hair?" Sanji started laughing at his partner. "What's so funny!" Zoro demanded, but Sanji didn't reply, he simply continued to laugh. "Don't tell me that you had long hair before! This is rich!" The blond howled and clutched his stomach. "I have a sister, remember. Perona told me that the best way to impress a woman was to know how to do her hair, plus she was lazy and didn't want to do her own hair." Zoro explained and Sanji calmed down. "That might be true for some women, but the ultimate way to someone's heart is through their stomach." He countered with a smirk. "Each person is different, so it depends on their preference." Zoro concluded. He grabbed the dishes and walked them over to the sink. "I wouldn't mind it if you did my hair." He heard his partner mumble. This caused him to smile. "Maybe later I will." He replied, mostly to himself, but it made Sanji happy to know that Zoro would do such an odd favor for him. "I'm going to shower. Try and think of some meals you want me to make." Sanji got up and subconsciously brushed his fingertips across Zoro's shoulder as he passed. The greenette hummed in response. With that, the blond disappeared up the stairs, leaving a red eared moss head alone.
