Love is Worth a Chance (ZoRobin)

Chapter 23-Confidence

Koala's heart exploded. He....loved her? It was already obvious enough but hearing him finally utter those words was an otherworldly feeling.

Koala smiled a smile 100 miles wide against Sabo's. He was so handsome, he was funny, he was strong, he was everything. He was always there for her whenever she needed it even at her lowest points. He meant everything to her. Who cared if they were revolutionaries.

She didn't thats for sure.

She put her hands on either side of his face.

"I love you too," she said sweetly.

Sabo didn't think it was possible but he smiled even wider.

"I know," he chuckled sincerely.

Sabo was happy. He was more than happy. This. This was the best feeling in the entire world to him. Nothing, absolutely nothing he had ever felt could even begin to compare how good it felt to be with her and hear her say those words.

Both of them sat up next to eachother.

"Do you think we can be together?" Koala asked shyly.

This caught Sabo off guard.

"W-were gonna be a COUPLE?!!" Sabo freaked out to himself.

Sabo would gladly take Koala as his girlfriend any day of the week, but the idea of it finally becoming a reality was just indescribable.

"Of course we can!" Sabo said happily, "I know we're revolutionaries, and I know there's a lot weighing in on our shoulders with the whole saving the world thing, but Koala, there's no one I'd rather go through all of that than you."

This made Koala blush BAD.

He continued.

"I promise that I'll never leave your side and no matter what troubles the world throws at us I'll be by your side always." He finished.

"Oh Sabo!" She squealed happily as she tackled him back to the floor in a giant hug, "I love you so much!"

Sabo ran his fingers through her hair.

"I love you too Koala." He smiled greatly.

The two had finally become a couple.

                                    Zoro

Zoro watched Robin from afar. All that confidence that he had built up was lost immediately. She was beautiful! What was he even supposed to do or say. He couldn't just walk up to her and be like "I love you."

Zoro scratched his head in frustration as he hid in between two food stands.

The sun had almost completely set by now.

"Man what am I even doing?!" Zoro thought to himself frustrated, "I'm acting like a coward here!"

He felt stupid for feeling the way he felt. He took a peak out from the crevice of the stands and looked at Robin.

She was still there just as beautiful as ever.

Immediately he hid again.

"Damn she looks so good! That's it! If I don't go up to her then I'm not a man!" Zoro thought to himself trying to help himself feel better.

He knew he was being a coward and he just couldn't take that, so he decided to man up. He popped out from the crevices of the stands and began walking towards Robin.
