Those That Got Away

Chapter 6

A/N: And here is another chapter to answer your confused minds xD this will be the second last chapter though, but i'm working on the other one shots :D ENJOY!!!!

Zoro's POV

"Stay together and hold hands." The receptionist said calmly. I held my arm out for Robin, who hesitantly looked at me. Well, over the years, she's not one to show her affections in public anymore. I'd say, she became more reserved? Yeah, reserved. 

I sighed and asked the neatly dressed woman. "Is it really necessary?"

She was going to answer when Robin interrupted. "I never said I didn't want to hold your hand, silly." She smiled and I couldn't help but smile back. 

"The wedding's about to start." She pointed out as everybody settled down.

Nami's POV

I was still inside Zoro's car, my palms suddenly looked so interesting. Then, I saw a little girl in a white dress outside, crying. She had a short blonde hair and big brown eyes. I went outside to comfort her.

"Hey, is everything alright?" I asked in a soothing tone as I knelt in front of her. The girl sniffled and wiped her face with the back of her hand.

"Okaasan, I feel pretty bad." She said. I was pretty bothered when she called me 'mother', but I didn't show it.

"Why? You're not feeling well?" I said and continued to wipe her tears from her cheeks, careful not to smudge her light make up. 

"Yeah, because you and Otosan won't be together anymore." I froze, what is she talking about?

"What are you...?" The little girl hugged me tightly and my body softened. I hugged her back, though I'm still confused. 

"Oh my, Sami!" A woman's voice said from behind. I looked up and there was a middle aged woman with strawberry blond hair and brown eyes wearing a blue dress approaching us. "I'm sorry young lady, was my little girl bothering you?" 

"N-not at all!" I said and gently patted Sami's head for her to let go. "Hey sweetie, it's time to go." 

"Okaasan, you should tell Otosan! Tell him!" She continued to sob. I looked at the older woman and she too was tearing up.

"I'm so sorry about this, young lady." She said and she noticed what I was wearing. "Oh my, are you in that wedding?" She asked as she carried her crying daughter. 

I nodded and she replied with a smile. "Congratulations!" 

"U-uhm..." I choked and smiled awkwardly. 

"Well then, good luck. Hope we see you again next time." The woman smiled and walked away, the little girl on her arms was waving her hand to me and I waved back. 

"Nami-chan?" Someone tapped my shoulder and I looked around. There was a woman neatly dressed in a navy blue business attire, holding a clipboard on her hand. She had a bright smile on her face. "It's time."

It felt like I was dreaming as I walked down the aisle. I looked around and the church was packed with all our friends and families. The surroundings looked flamboyant with the extravagant designs in the shades of blue that I chose. This dream fairy tale wedding... it's perfect. But there seems to be something missing, I turned to the altar that I was nearing and there he was, in a white tux, brown shoes and a coral tie that matched his beautiful eyes. His blonde hair was combed like usual. The way I wanted it, the way I loved it. There's the missing part...Sanji.

I smiled at him and he gave a light nod, his lips were curled upward. My smile went wider as I approached him.

"I'm almost there Sanji-kun." I whispered dreamily to myself.

"Oi, Nami. We're supposed to part was in a few steps right?" Luffy whispered, interrupting my daydreaming. I nodded nonchalantly. I looked up again and realized that it was all real. 

He's real. 

I gave a last smile at Sanji as Luffy and I parted ways and took our positions. I was a few steps opposite of him. I glanced at the blonde man who was just gazing at the aisle. I felt a sharp pain in my chest, or maybe that was just my heart, breaking.

I can see the happiness in his eyes. He's been really happy, since then. If only I wasn't too stubborn. 

My sad gaze left Sanji when I turned to watch the bride, Viola. She looked very beautiful. I'd say, if Sanji looked dashing, she looked like a goddess. 

I turned to Sanji again, he had this contented look despite his gaping on her soon-to be-wife. I forced a chuckle at his reaction and sighed. That should've been me. 

After Mr. Riku Doldo gave away his daughter to Sanji, the ceremony began. And I, Nami, the Maid of Honor, for some odd reason, is in so much hidden pain while everything unfolded in front of me.
