THIRD PERSON POV

"Zoro"

"..."

"Zooooro!"

"."

"ZORO!"

"WHAT?"

"GEEZ, THAT SCARED ME!" Kaze yells, eyes wide.

"Yeah, well you kept saying my name? What else am I supposed to do?" Zoro asks, with venom on his voice.

They were at the place that Zoro would try to always go to train. It was a separate area from the place he trained Y/n; this was a place that only the two of them knew about. The fact that Y/n couldn't see or hear him made Zoro less nervous, and Kaze liked the fact that he had this bond with Zoro, so it was a win - win.

"I don't know, maybe you could actually respond to me?.." Kaze says sweatdropping. 

"I did!"

"No, you didn't," He says raising an eyebrow.

"Yes, I did,"

"No, you didn't,"

"Fine," Zoro says, sighing and putting his weights down.

"Are you okay? The Roronoa Zoro I know would NOT give up an argument that easily,"

"Shut up."

"No. What's going on?" Kaze presses.

"Shut Up"

"I'm not giving up until you tell me.."

"And I'm not telling you."

"Fine. You've made me pull out my strongest card. Zoro...

PLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASE PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE tell me?"

"No is no,"

"PLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASE-"

"You're not going to make me give up so easily,"

"I'll get you some booze..."

Zoro looks up from training, looking at Kaze with interest and suspicion in his eyes.

"And how are you going to do that?"

Kaze smiles and *magically* ( Okay, not magically, he had had it with him for the last 20 minutes, ) pulled out a bottle of Zoro's favorite alcohol. 

"Where did you get that?" He demands.

"That, my friend, is for me to know and for you to find out... if you tell me what's happening, of course!" Kaze says, smiling brightly.

"Sneaky little mother fucker," Zoro says under his breath with a slight smile on his face. In truth, he really wanted to talk to someone, but no way in hell was it going to be Y/n or Kuuki.

"Thank you for the compliment~" Kaze says, still smiling. "Do you have any cups? Or, more importantly, a bottle opener?"

"Give me the bottle. Also, no need for cups."

Cautiously, Kaze hands Zoro the bottle, which Zoro promtely opens the bottle. 

With his bare hands.

"WHAT?"

"Hm?"

"You just opened that with your bare hands?"

"And?..."

"YOU OPENED IT WITH YOU BARE HANDS!"

"I still don't see how that's a problem."

"HOW ARE YOU STRONG ENOUGH TO OPEN A BOTTLE OF BOOZE WITH YOUR BARE HANDS?"

"I'm not strong, you're just weak."

"RUDE!"

"Are you going to stop freaking out now?"

"Yes," Kaze says, deeply breathing to calm down. "So. What's happening? You seem... not yourself, I guess."

"I'm very much myself." Zoro takes a giant chug of the sake.

"Hey, you promised to tell me."

"Tch."

"Come on, just tell me! It's not like I'm gonna make fun of you or anything! What are you afraid of?"

Zoro takes another chug of sake. "I like Y/n."

"I know that."

"Yeah, and- WAIT, YOU KNEW?"

"Yeah. It's kinda obvious. You treat Y/n differently than how you treat Kuuki and I."

"Oh. Well, anyway, I confessed to her on my birthday, but..."

"Isn't that the day the got a concussion?"

"Yeah. So now I don't know if she remembers and I don't know how to bring it up again..."

Kaze gives Zoro a thumbs up and beams. "Don't worry, you've done it once, you can do it again!"

"It's not that easy, Kaze..."

Kaze lowers his voice to a murmur. "Yeah... I know."
