“Blah blah blah blah… moon… blah blah… sea… blah… starry sky… blah blah…”

Zoro gazed out into the turbulent waters of the Grand Line. He enjoyed the feeling of the changeable breeze cooling his skin and the sound of the waves lapping on the hull of the ship. Night was always his favourite time; a perfect time for quiet contemplation, focussed training and, of course, napping. According to Sanji, it was a perfect time for ‘romance’. Zoro was a little mystified by the whole romance thing. He used to think that it meant eating food before having lots of sex but apparently, Sanji had a different idea. From what the Swordsman could see, he thought it meant crapping on for hours on end and boring your lover into some kind of submissive coma.

Kami, he was still going.

“Blah blah… eternal circle blah blah… significance of… blah blah… certain cultures… blah blah…”

What was he even talking about?! It was like a gentle wave of words washing over Zoro, rocking him to sleep. He knew from experience that falling asleep at this point was NOT a good idea. He had to endure Sanji’s ‘romance’ for a couple of hours before they moved onto his own… it must have been that long now surely? He felt like they had been here for weeks!

“Blah blah… marry blah blah… destiny… blah blah… for so long… blah blah…”

Zoro gazed at the moon peeking out from behind the clouds at last. It was full and bright, so much bigger that it was at home. It made night training so easy here… wait. Something's changed…

Zoro turned slowly, feeling the intense stare before he met the Cook’s burning gaze. Oh no. Sanji had stopped talking and he was waiting for Zoro to talk. Uhhhh…

“Well?” Sanji asked.

Think quick.

Sanji had said something important and he had to respond correctly or the Cook would know that he hadn’t been paying attention this entire time. If that happened, the chaces of moving this evening into the passionate-slightly-aggressive-but-that’s-how-I-like-it-fun-sex stage dwindled to pretty much nothing.

Damn.

“Yes,” Zoro guessed.

Sanji clapped his hands and then flung his arms around the Swordsman’s neck, tickling Zoro’s cheek with his super soft blond hair. He felt warm and very touchable. Mmmmm…

“I’m so happy Zoro! I never thought that you’d say yes!!! I can’t wait to tell everyone!!!” Sanji leapt to his feet and ran off up the deck, leaving an amused and slightly bewildered swordsman in his wake.

Wonder what the hell that was about. Oh well, looks like I chose the right answer. Hope Sanji comes back soon… it’s kinda dull out here without anyone to cuddle…

He heard feet pounding up the deck and Nami burst around the corner, with Robin and Luffy not far behind.

“Oh-my-God-I-can’t-belive-that-you-oh-it’s-so-amazing-I-never-thought-that-will-be-so-so-fun-to-plan-and-all-the-gifts-and-just…” Nami gushed.

Zoro blinked.

“Wha?”

Robin came to the rescue, “I think what Navigator-san is trying to say is ‘congratulations on your engagement’,” she smiled sweetly, her eyes twinkling.

“Oh thanks…” Zoro began, slightly baffled. After a few seconds, his brain caught up.

“MY WHAT!?!??!??!!?! SANJI!!!!!!!!”
