“zoro? is that you?” you called out, looking at the moss headed boy in the alleyway.
zoro turned around, looking at you in surprise. “oh, hey l/n. i thought you’re with sanji today?”
you just nodded as he walked up to you, “i was, but it got pretty annoying to stop at every beautiful woman.” you let out a laugh, before turning your attention back to him, “did you get lost again~?”
zoro scoffed, crossing his arms over his chest, “yeah right. when have i ever been lost?”
you sweatdropped, about to list the times, but instead shook your head. “mhm, right… so what’re you doing in this sketchy alleyway? hiding from your family?”
the boy felt heat creeping up to his ears and cheeks, “h-hey now, i told you not to talk about that…”
you just let out a laugh, finding his expression cute. he blushed even further, so you decided to let him off this time, “alright, well i need some help cutting up some food to surprise the crew. mind helping me on the cutting part?”
“uh, sure. lead the way.” zoro says, following you.
he was able to keep up for a few minutes before losing you when you took a right.
the swordsman grumbled, looking around the unfamiliar alleyway, wondering when he’d gotten lost (he turned left instead of right). before he could take another left, your voice popped up again.
“you’ve never gotten lost, huh?” you teased, making the boy blush once more.
“s-shut up!”
you laugh, holding out your hand. he looked at it weirdly before looking back up at your face, “you need someone to guide you, moss brains. just hold my hand and we’ll be back at the temporary headquarters in no time.”
zoro’s blush reddened even more, looking to the side in a horrible attempt to hide it. he did take your hand though, mumbling the words, “only since you bugged me. wouldn’t want you to get lost.”
you just shake your head, laughing once more making his chest warm. the two of you were like that all the way back. much to zoro’s luck, you two didn’t need yagaras so he was able to hold your hand the rest of the way.
that is until sanji finally called for you to help in the kitchen.
dammit… i really liked their hands. he thought before slipping into deep sleep.
he was soon awaken by nami, telling him dinner was ready. zoro yawned, walking over to the table and sitting next to you.
as soon as he got all his food on his plate, he felt a hand on his right hand. he jumped slightly, looking over to you.
“don’t get too lost into the food~” you teased, laughing as you locked both your hands under the table.
zoro looked at you for a moment before giving a soft smile mixed with a smirk. “whenever i get lost, will you be there?”
“nami’s the navigator for the ship, i’m your navigator for your idiocy.”
a tick mark appeared on his forehead, but it soon disappeared as he chuckles, “that’s fine by me.”
i could get lost forever if that means i could hold their hand.
you can't help but squeal and cover your face with your hands, face beginning to burn.
"what?" he says, but he can barely even get the word out as he laughs, pretending to act perplexed.
"you did it." you spread out your fingers to peak through them, staring at his hands as he pulls out of the drive way
"you're crazy," he tries to tell you seriously, eyes flitting to the rearview mirror then to yours before switching the gear from reverse to drive to pull out of the driveway. he nudges his head in your direction. "pay attention to the road or something. didn't even do anything."
you can only huff at his words.
it's only when the car pulls up to the parking lot of the grocery store does he feel your eyes boring into him again. he has to bite the inside of his cheek to stop himself from smiling as he looks around to find an open slot before placing his palm onto the top of the wheel and rotates it counterclockwise with ease.
he can hear you giggle as he resets the wheel, the leather gliding smoothly across his palm. he can only shake his head in disbelief.
"you did it again!" you shout in excitement.
"something's wrong with you," he laughs out loud, the car rumbling beneath you guys before turning off the engine and leaving you in the car so you don't see that stupid grin growing on his face. he nearly loses all composure when you catch up to him, latching onto his arm and looking up.
"pretty damn cool if you ask me," you compliment. "and hot."
all he can do is ruffle your hair, trying to distract you from the burning he feels on the tips of his ears. "you're lucky you're so cute."
