Hi, been a while. I've wrote some odd shit in this fic that makes me laugh, and so the show must go on.
This is short but I should start updating more,maybe?
It's cheesy but I sure as hell enjoyed writing this.
(Kudos if you get where the title is from)
Zoro POV
I rolled over in my bed and looked at my alarm clock which was repeatedly beeping, I tiredly slumped my hand on top of the device to shut it up. The time read 08:00 in blinding bright green characters.
Today was the day of Nico Olvia's funeral, a day I don't think anyone anticipated but never the less it has come around. Today was going to be extremely hard on Robin, having no other family besides her mother I could never begin to imagine what she's going through. Today I need to be there for her and no one else, today Robin is my priority.
after getting out of bed and having a cold shower I headed downstairs to find Robin sitting in the kitchen slowly eating her cereal, I grabbed a bowl from one of the cupboards and took a seat next to her.
" How you feeling?" I asked concerned
"To be honest with you this really getting to me, I never thought this day would come and especially so soon, my mother didn't deserve this, she deserved so much better, I should have been here for her" Robin exclaimed bursting into tears.
I got out of my seat and wrapped my arms around her "Robin none of this is your fault and you know that yourself, I can't even try to imagine how much pain your going through right now but I'm gonna be with you every step of the way and today, I promise not to leave your side"
Robin leaned her head on my shoulder soaking it in the process because of the tears flowing like a river out of her eyes.
"Thank you Zoro" Robin whispered
"It's alright, but we're gonna need to get ready soon, do you need any help with anything?" I asked trying to be polite
"I should be alright, I'll be down when i'm ready" Robin answered before leaving the kitchen and walking upstairs.
As I was finishing my breakfast, my phone vibrated in my pocket, I reached in and pulled it out to see a message from Nami, I opened it see a picture of her in a black dress asking "Do you think this looks alright? xx"
I took a picture of half my face and typed "Yeah it looks fine, see you there xx"
after clicking the send button my head fell to my hands and I sighed.
"What am I going to do?" I asked myself aloud.

Robin POV
It was quiet service, as wasn't any relatives to come, therefore it was only friends of mine and friends of my mothers, some of which I hadn't met before and others who I had.
I tried to stay strong during the service for my mother and I didn't shed a tear as to be honest it felt as if there were none left for me to cry out. I felt bad for Zoro however as I had kept a tight grasp of his hand throughout the entire ceremony as I needed something or someone in this case to keep me stable and strong.
Many people had come to see me throughout the service to give me their condolences which I appreciated as it was kind and caring but I have to admit it changed nothing for me.
This day had seemed to drag much longer than any other usual day and by the end of it I just wanted to sleep, but for now it would have to wait as there is currently a gathering at Zoro's house of the guests who attended however it was only my friends and Zoro's who insisted on coming to give me company but to be frank I just wanted to be on my own or rather just me and Zoro but alas I didn't even have him as he was with Nami.
I silently sighed, I had made the excuse that I was going to the toilet but instead I had gone up to my room, it feels odd to say that thinking about it, it feels odd that I've been living with Zoro for a week. Living together I thought, its as if we're a married couple well more like a divorced one if we're sleeping in different rooms.
My lips slowly crept upwards in the form of a smile as I had made myself giggle.
"I have to admit I've really enjoyed living with Zoro" I spoke aloud.
"Is that so?" Someone said as the door opened making me jump slightly.
As the door fully opened it revealed Zoro, which brought an even bigger smile to my lips as I couldn't believe he had caught me saying that.
"Isn't it rude to eavesdrop" I inquired with a smirk.
"I happened to be passing by" Zoro replied, leaning on the doorframe
"and you decided to intrude" I asked jokingly
"Well I can't help it when I here my name" He replied smiling "How are you?" He asked
"I've been better but i'll live, is everyone still here?" I responded and asked
"Nah I told them all you fell asleep so they all left"
"Perfect" I laughed
"You wanted to get rid of them that much?" Zoro asked smirking
"I just wanted some peace" I answered with a smile
"Want me to leave then?" Zoro asked
I looked down at my bed and then back up at Zoro raising my eyebrows, I know I had said the other night to him that we couldn't do anything unless they split but at this current time I couldn't care less.
Zoro smirked and took his shirt off and closed the door, and he undone his belt and dropped his pants to floor standing only there in his boxers.
Again I raised my eyebrows at him and he replied with a smile "What you expected me to sleep in those"
Zoro walked over to the bed and climbed in and then wrapped his arms around my waist, I leaned forwards and pressed my lips against his hard.
When we separated I brought a hand to his hair and started playing with it. He smiled at me with excitement.
"What is it?" I asked smiling
"I broke up with Nami" He stated with a smile
My eyes widened and my smile widened, "So what are you saying?"
"Will you go out with me?" He asked smiling joyously
"Of course!" I replied and wrapped my arms around his neck.
We both embraced each other tightly and rolled over so that Zoro was on his back with me lying on top of his toned chest.
"Listen I know this sounds sudden and I understand if you think me crazy for it but Zoro, I love you" I stated and waited for his response nervously.
He brushed his hand through my hair and replied " I love you too" before pecking me on the lips.
