Be Mine

Date

Zoro and Sanji stood still next to the big fountain in the town square. They both look dumbfounded, not knowing what to do. Sanji wears his normal pants and shoes with a dress shirt and a hooded cardigan on. Zoro wears a black v-neck shirt and a jacket on top that is not zipped all the way, with his black khakis he wears black converse. They both stood there awkwardly not knowing what to do. Sanji glances over at Zoro then back down to the floor where Zoro also stares at. They both start to remember what happened only minutes before.

Zoro and Sanji finished eating their snack. They both stand up, Sanji takes the plate and goes back to the kitchen to clean the plate while Zoro grabs the triplets and starts walking to the deck. Zoro takes out the stroller and starts looking through the stroller to see what's inside and what he might need to get.

"What are you doing?" Nami asks.

"Seeing what I'll need for the triplets." Zoro looks at her then Robin confused.

"Why?" 

"To make sure they have what they need when we go exploring the town." Zoro says standing up.

"What about Sanji?"

"Sanji's a grown man, I don't need to make sure he has formula in the stroller."

"Noo! Not that, what about Sanji? Where's Sanji going to be?"

"I don't know, also exploring the town while getting more supplies."

"AAARGGG!" Nami yells in frustration. Robin and Zoro stare at her as she stomps away.

"Why not take the day off and do something with Sanji?" Robin suggest.

"Like what?" Zoro asks back.

"Like anything. You both haven't been given the chance to be together just the two of you."

"But we were." Zoro says, Robin sighs.

"How about going on a date with Sanji. Just the two of you off the Sunny in town. You both never went on a date and the night Sanji confessed we interrupted you."

"No that's ok." Zoro says then he knees down looking in the basket to see what he'll need to pack for the triplets if they want to go exploring. He also didn't want to go on a date, he's only ever been on one date and that did not end well. Who's to say this will end well. He didn't want to risk it. Robin just stares at him then walks away.

Nami walks into the kitchen as Sanji continue to clean the plate. He turns around to see who has entered and sees an angry Nami. "Did Luffy do something already?" Sanji asks as he looks worried and lowers the plate in his hand as he dries it with a towel.

"Sanji what do you plan to do after you clean that plate?" She asks as she points to the plate in Sanji hand. He looks down at his hands then back up to her.

"I'm going shopping for supplies and ingredients and anything else we might need, once I  put everything away join Zoro and the triplets. Why?"

"Never mind." Nami says walking back out the kitchen Sanji just stood there thinking for a moment. Sanji and Zoro spent their time together sleeping, something they both really needed and now he wanted to spent time with the triplets, something he didn't have for a while since Zoro came back.

Nami and Robin talk to each other, Robin tells Nami Zoro said no to the date. "Those two." Nami says pinching her nose. "I'll make them go on a date, they really need to get off Sunny and spent time together." Nami rushes down to Zoro's room and rummages through his closet for a pair of shoes and a jacket. Once she finds one she grabs them and sprints back to Zoro to see Zoro waiting for the Sunny to dock so he can get the triplets off the ship and walk around. He and Sanji are talking about something, she has no idea about what but she can guess they are talking about where to meet. "Zoro put these on." She pushes the shoes she choose to him. He looks down at his feet to remember that he's barefoot. 

"Thanks." Zoro says as he puts the shoes on.

"Don't thank me yet." She looks at Robin and nods. Robin crosses her arms.

"Mil Fleur: Gigantesco Mano." Robin says as a giant hand grabs both Zoro and Sanji then throws them overboard as they pass a small area with a fountain in the middle decorated with benches and lamp posts. Nami then throws Zoro's jacket at him as he and Sanji sit up from where they landed. Zoro puts the jacket on.

They both just stood there in front of the fountain thinking about what had just happened. "We got thrown off Sunny." Zoro states.

"Yeah." Sanji confirms.

"What do we do now?" Zoro asks. The Sunny completely disappeared now and they have no idea where they are docking. 

"I don't know." Sanji says uncertain. He had planned to go on a shopping spree to buy things that they will need to get to the next island.

"Then...why don't we...go on a...date?" Zoro suggest fidgeting a little, nervous to be the one to ask. He knew Nami and Robin did this because he said 'no' on going on a date, now that things have ended like this they might as well go on a date. Sanji stares at Zoro, as he blush a little, shocked that the swordsman has asked him. Sanji then remembered Nami asking him what he was going to do on the island. 

"I would like that." Sanji says with a smile and Zoro smiles back.

"What do you normally do on a date?" Zoro asks.

"Well what did you and Luka do?" Sanji asks instinctively. Zoro turns his head to the side looking down as he sits on the edge of the fountain.

"I would rather forget that all." Zoro says. 'Idiot' Sanji thinks to himself. Of course Zoro would want to forget that, in his head it probably doesn't count as a date.

"Then let's forget all that." Sanji says walking to stand in front of Zoro grabbing his attention, having him lift his head up to look at each other. "Forget everything, for the moment, this moment, we aren't pirates, I'm not black leg Sanji and you're not pirate hunter Zoro. I'm not a cook and you're not a swordsman. We are just Sanji and Zoro, we don't have kids and it's going to be like we just met, it's just us. So Roronoa Zoro will you like to accompany me on this island?" Sanji asks stretching his arm out, opening his palm waiting for Zoro to grab it. Zoro looks at Sanji then then lets out a giant smile as he laughed, after he finish he grabs Sanji's hand.

"I would like to Sanji Vinsmoke." Zoro smiles and Sanji helps him up.
