Ex Boyfriend (Roronoa Zoro x Reader) AU

Together

You woke up to the bear-like snoring that came from your ex boyfriend, but you didn't really mind. The real problem here was what was going to happen. What if all the sweet things he had said to you were only a product of the sexual passion of yesterday? Maybe he didn't mean any of them and only wanted a one night stand, for old times sake.

Looking up at him, you felt your heart and stomach flutter about. He did this to you. He was so handsome and yesterday he had been extremely sweet. You wished for him to want more with you. Hopefully, once he woke up, you'd set things clear and get back together. Only time would tell. This man slept like a hibernating bear.

You snuggled closer to him, enjoying his warmth while you could. Out of instinct, Zoro wrapped his arms around you and lifted you so that you'd now be tightly cuddled on top of him. You hummed, relaxed and tried to sleep a little more.

"(Y/N)?" He mumbled, still half asleep.

"Yeah?" Your tummy suddenly churned in anxiousness, the anticipation of knowing what he'd say to you, if he'd either blow you off or ask you to stay, killing you on the inside.

"How are you feeling?" He asked, not moving an inch. You took in a deep breath and answered.

"I'm great."

"Great?"

"Y-yeah."

"Great." He smirked, pushing you down on the mattress and hovering on top of you. "I feel great too." He kissed your lips slowly and you just then realized how very naked the two of you were.

Your cheeks flamed red as you felt his now limp bulge pressing down onto your stomach.

"How about we take a nice bath?" He asked huskily, forehead pressed against yours lovingly.

Completely out of breath, you nodded and looked into his eyes.

"You have to prepare it though." He frowned.

Adorable useless moss head.

You chuckled and nodded, pecking his lips and slipping away from him to go to the bathroom. Zoro had tried surprising you with a bath in the past and it ended up being a ton of soap concentrated on only one side and water both cold and hot depending on the edges of the tub. He was a mess at making baths. So, whenever you wanted to take a bath together you'd be the assigned bath person.

He trailed after you like a puppy, following you into the bathroom and waiting behind you while he enjoyed the view.

"Zoro?" You asked with a frown. He had a woman's soap in the toilet and it had already been pretty used. Coincidentally, it was the same one he had gifted you on one of your anniversaries, the one you had used after breaking up with Law. "What's this?" You asked, but you were careful on not sounding too jealous. You had broken up so you didn't really have the right on shaming him for having another girl over. Specially you.

"Ah- shit." He muttered under his breath, cheeks blazing red as he snatched the soap from your hands.

"What? It's ok if you had a girlfriend."

No. Not ok. Of course I'm jealous! Well, yes ok, but not for me.

"Yeah. A girlfriend. It's hers." He mumbled, looking down at the label and avoiding eye contact.

"It's ok, you don't have to be so weird about it. I thought you hadn't dated anyone?" It's true, he had said he stayed single and thinking about you, so you found it weird he lied. It was ok, though. It was in the past and it wasn't a big deal.

"I didn't." He muttered under greeted teeth.

You frowned and made your way to grab his face in your hands gently, forcing him to look at you. His eyes were shining from the embarrassment and his cheeks were flaming red.
