Ex Boyfriend (Roronoa Zoro x Reader) AU

Luffy's Comfort

"No! Wait, (Y/N)!" He once again reached out for you, holding you tight against the tree. Again.

"Get off me!" You growled, wiggling around to try and free yourself from his grasp.

"What date?" He asked confused.

"Let me go!" You tried pushing him off his chest, but he still wouldn't budge. "I saw you at the pub." You mumbled once ha had grabbed your wrists, immobilizing you completely.

It finally clicked. He had gone out with Tashigi last night, maybe that was what you were referring to. He chuckled softly, finally understanding why you were pushing him away so much.

"Oh, (Y/N)." He closed his eyes and pressed his forehead against yours. "I missed you." He whispered.

There it was. He melted your heart as he nuzzled his nose sweetly against yours, a soft whine leaving your lips once he pulled away.

"That was the winner of the women's competition. She entered Mihawk's dojo with me and we decided to hang out."

"You kissed her." You mumbled, eyes closed and focused on trying to calm down your crying.

"Yes. She kissed me, but I told her I wasn't into her in any way. I have my soulmate already." His hands slipped down to hold your waist, tilting your chin up to look at him into his eyes. "You've got no idea of how much I've missed you, (Y/N)." His voice now came out a lot rougher than before. He was fighting his tears back. You knew him well enough.

"And I'll wait as much time as I have to for you to finally realize that I'm the one that will end up with you. I'm really sorry I didn't tell you I was coming to the city, I wanted to surprise you. Of course I didn't consider that idiot doctor swooping in and stealing you away from me." He frowned, lips now dipping to talk straight into your ear. "I love you, and I'll get you back."

He didn't pull away. He just stayed there holding you tightly against him. His hands didn't slip anywhere, they remained respectfully in your hips as he tried to recover his breath. Your eyes were glossy. His scent and presence were intoxicating, and your mind had gone blank.

Fuck.

Taking in a shaky breath, you finally gathered the mental strength to push his body off of you. You pressed your hands to his chest and moved him away, slipping back into the path and leaving him alone, speechless.

You dried your face with your sleeves and hurried down the path, not once looking back to your ex lover. It was better that way, though, because if you would've looked back, your strong exterior would've been shattered after seeing his hurt and crying expression. He had missed you and knew he had fucked up. He needed to fix it and get you back.

Ugh! I hate men.

Opening your door with a loud click you finally allowed yourself to relax. Throwing your stuff to the floor and your own body to the couch, tears were now streaming freely down your cheeks. Your head was now hurting from all of the crying you had done between yesterday and this morning. You didn't know if you should either believe him or not, he did seem honest, but you didn't want to get played by him.

He's not that type of guy though...

Well, maybe time had changed him and he had realized that he no longer wanted to commit to a long and loving relationship.

"Ah! This is bullshit!" You growled out loud.

Finally, you decided to stand up and prepare lunch. Although your throat was closed and your head was pounding against your scalp from all the crying, your stomach was growling. You had barely eaten anything for breakfast and hadn't eaten since then.
