I decided to just add asian dramas (mostly j & kdramas because I mostly watch those) just in case if I decided to write from one. Like how I said before, I really wish that I can write certain things but idk if it will reach the type of audience that I want.
It’s so late texting about this but I finished the first season of the jdrama Gokusen and I really wanna make a fic but when I searched it up both on tumblr and ao3, there weren’t really any or they were weird ones. So idk if I should try and write something for it or don’t because like NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT THAT DRAMA AND THE FANDOM IS SMALL 😭😭😭
𐙚 Blackleg Sanji x Fem!Reader 𖹭 wc: 2.1k - wholesome fluff & slight humor ⸝⸝ friends to lovers!

Song: Butterflies by Michael Jackson
WARNINGS: language/slight cursing ⸝⸝ mentions of food/baking ⸝⸝ I didn't proofread it fully SO I'M SORRY IF IT'S RUSHED ⸝⸝ a kiss scene!
💭Rose's Note: I cooked pancakes 2 times this week and had to rearranged this for it. THIS TOOK ME MONTHS TO GET OUT OF MY DRAFTS.
𝓢ANJI IS DEEPLY in love with you. It wasn’t because of his usual manner, which is being flirtatious and obsessed with every woman he sees. There was more to it than that. It’s something different when it comes to you. Every time you are around, his whole body stops processing. Whenever you smile and drift your attention towards him, he can’t help but feel like time has stopped, and both of you are the only people existing. Everything you do makes him speechless. From your kind personality to your beauty, he adores you so much.
As Sanji was in the kitchen preparing the next meal of the day, which was suspiciously your favorite meal. Oh no. He was so busy thinking about you that he made it in an instant. He dropped whatever he was holding, which was a knife, onto the counter. The blonde man’s hands reached to his hair as he let out a stressed sigh.
“Shit,” Sanji cursed under his breath.
“Sanji?” His body stiffens from already recognizing your calm, polite voice.
“Yes, my love?” He questions as he turns to face you.
“Zoro said that he wants more sake. Is there any more left?” Sanji’s eyebrows furrow out of anger before he lets out a sigh.
“That moss-head can get it himself.” But Sanji already picked up the bottle despite talking badly about the swordsman a second ago. When he gave it to you, his fingers lingered on yours a little bit longer than expected before letting go of the bottle.
Sanji could’ve sworn that his heart was about to beat right out his chest. He noticed how your eyes slightly widened and your cheeks turned into a brighter shade of pink. Him on the other hand, was shaking but hiding it by placing it in his trouser pockets.
“T-thanks!” You stuttered a bit before forcing it out. Sanji nodded, trying to be casual, which obviously didn’t work well. Even when Sanji tried to brush it off, the whole crew’s attention was on you two. They already noticed it. They always had.
The crew watched as Sanji fumbled on the spot, and the shyness brushed past you, which earned grins, nods, and whispers from everyone around. As you walked away from the kitchen to deliver the sake to the grumpy green-haired man, everyone exclaimed teasingly.
“You’re blushing, Sanji,” Nami teased, which made Sanji’s hands shake.
“Look at that! Y/n has really done it for him!” A chuckle escaped from Franky.
“Why are you guys only talking about Sanji?” Robin interrupts,
“Thank you, Robin-dear! – Wait – what?” Sanji looked at Robin confusedly.
“You guys should also question the other victim. She was stuttering.” Robin grinned before taking a sip of her lemonade, which made Sanji’s ears warm up.
“Actually, that was a good one, Robin!” Ussop cackled.
“Oh, shut it, Ussop!” Everyone could’ve sworn they saw him grow taller with spikey teeth, but Sanji turned back to the counter and continued fixing everyone's plates.
A FEW HOURS LATER – 11:28 P.M
You tiptoed into the kitchen, hoping the creaky floor wouldn’t alarm everyone, but once you turned the corner, you jumped back in surprise.
“Y/n-dear, are you okay?!” Sanji’s voice was higher than he intended it to be. “What are you doing here this late?”
“I was trying to get a late-night snack. I’m sorry!” You covered your mouth just in case your laugh becomes louder. Sanji gave a small smile.
“What would you like, my love?” The man’s hand already reached towards the refrigerator door.
“I’m not exactly sure what I want, but I’m craving for something sweet!” You leaned over the island counter.
“Alright! I will surprise you with something that will fill your stomach.” The corner of your lips quirked as you watched him get the ingredients from the fridge.
“Would you maybe…” You stretched the word ‘maybe’ longer then intended, “teach me how to cook along the way?”
You saw the man’s eyes light up immediately in surprise and amazement. “I would be glad to teach you, love.”
“That means you’ll have to tell me what you’re making.” You watched the blonde-haired man grab the flour, egg carton, and milk from the fridge and place them on the counter.
“Why don’t you be surprised? I’ll tell you once we get prepared to cook it.”
“Fine.” You say as you drift your attention to the window. Once he grabbed the bowl and spatula, he turned to face you.
“Are you ready?” He questioned as a bright smile appeared on his face. You nodded eagerly until you realized how fast it was.
“Yep. I’m ready!” Sanji then added the amount of flour and told you how many eggs you could crack. You took an egg from the carton, pressed it on the counter a little roughly until you heard it crack, and spread the shell apart. You watched as the egg yolk fell into the bowl before the blonde chef grabbed the spatula, which stopped you in your tracks.
“Let me add milk.” Sanji took the milk carton, poured the right amount, closed the lid, and put it in the fridge. The cook then moved aside so you could stir.
As you were stirring the batter, the chef pulled the bacon from its clear wrapping and placed it in the pan. “I won’t let you do this because I don’t want the grease to pop at you.” You nodded before continuing your movement. Your movements were steady and precise as you were stirring the batter.
After Sanji checked the bacon strips in the pan, his attention drifted to you. “You're doing very well, my sweet.” Your lips curved from his compliment before stopping your tracks. “Oh, wait. It still needs to mix with vanilla.” Sanji grabbed the vanilla extract, dipped a few into the bowl, and moved so you could stir.
The chef went back to his original position to flip the bacon and place the rest on the plate. Then Sanji went to the fridge and grabbed the margarine before closing the door. Once he grabbed the butter knife, sliced the right amount of the smooth butter, and placed it on the pan effortlessly.
“I feel like I know what you’re doing, and it’s kind of too late to make it.” You giggled.
“It’s not a lot of battery. It’s only enough for a few.”
“And this is supposed to be a snack?”
“It’s enough to fill your stomach.” The chef smiled, making you mirror it.
“Sure. This will definitely fill me in the morning as well.” You poured the batter into the pan.
“And I thought you said that you wanted me to teach you how to cook,” Sanji remarked as he crossed his arms.
“Maybe you should’ve thought that I wanted to spend time with you.” You glanced at him before grabbing the spatula.
TEN MINUTES LATER
Sanji placed the golden, fluffy pancakes onto your plate along with the bacon. Your eyes lit up as you could feel your mouth watering.
“This looks so good,” you said, licking the corner of your lips.
“It is for you.” Sanji placed the plate across the island counter. You walked around the counter, but before you could sit down, Sanji, like a gentleman he is, moved the chair back enough for you to pass by. “My lady,” He gestured his hand out.
“You didn’t have to do that, Sanji,” You say as you drift your attention to him.
“But I wanted to” The chef gave a soft smile, making you mirror it before sitting in the chair. The man pushed the chair in enough for you to reach the counter, then he walked around the other side of the island.
Sanji watched as you used the side of your fork to cut off a slice of the fluffy pancake before pressing it into your mouth. He smiled once he heard a satisfied sound from you.
“This is so good.” You closed your eyes in satisfaction. “Thank you so much, Sanji!”
“Anything for you, my lady.” Sanji tilted his head in confusion as he noticed you shifting in your chair while looking everywhere else but his face. He brushed it off before he turned to face the counter.
Sanji started to overthink. Everything he was thinking about led straight to you, making you the answer to everything. His train of thought, daydreams, his wishes, and his future. Even if it does hurt his chest, he really wants to be there for you. Even if you don’t accept his confession, it was worth risking to express himself.
“Y/n, I have something to tell you,” he says, making you pause your movements. You had your attention on him, which made him even more nervous about saying how he felt. “Uhm,” He stared into your eyes as he swallowed the lump in his throat. “Never mind. It’s nothing.” Sanji faced the dishes and started rolling up his sleeves.
“What was it?” You questioned as you stood beside him.
“It’s nothing to worry about. And it probably would've ruined this moment anyway.”
“Sanji…” You crossed your arms, leaving your elbow at the edge of the counter. “I know something is up. Please tell me.” Oh, how could he ignore it? Especially when you are asking nicely. But he was scared. Scared of destroying your friendship because nine times out of ten, you might not see him the same way he sees you.
“It’s just…” Sanji’s fingers held a small grip on the edge of the sink. “I’m scared that what I would say would make you uncomfortable and might not see me the same.”
“It wouldn’t hurt to tell, ‘cause you never know how I would react.” Your comforting words made him feel a little better, but he was still very anxious.
Sanji let out a sigh and removed his gloves before placing them aside. His eyes drifted towards the floor before looking into your confused eyes. “Y/n, I am in love with you.” He finally says, making your eyes widen.
“I am in love with you, and I always have ever since I met you. I fell in love with you the moment I first laid eyes on you. I was attracted to your beauty from the inside and out. Before you joined the Strawhats, you helped out your village and showed how much you care about them, even if they didn’t believe that you could save them. You were independent and declined my offer when I tried reaching out a hand to help.”
You felt your eyes watering from his words, “I felt crazy when I couldn’t help out. Luffy had to stop me since he said it was your fight and your decision. But you stopped them even when you were really badly injured. Your beauty leaves me breathless. Every time I look into your eyes, it’s always so gentle, like it’s welcoming me home. Every time you laugh, I can’t help but feel warmth. And every time you help out the people around you, my heart always feels at ease.”
Sanji paused for a moment as he was trying to find anything else to say because he had a whole list, but that would take a million years even to finish explaining. “I know that you probably won’t feel the same because of how I act towards everyone. Even the thought of you being with me sounds impossible, you know? Not in a bad way, but impossible since I am way under your league-”
“Sanji,” You interrupted him. You stepped closer, making him freeze on the spot. Sanji could already feel his hands becoming sweaty and his heart thumping against his chest.
Your hand reached to his cheek, thumb brushing against his skin before pressing your lips against his. Right then and there, he felt like his fireworks exploded around him. Was this real? It took Sanji a few seconds to register what had happened before he leaned into the kiss. You felt one of his hands wrap around your waist, and the other cupping your cheek.
The kiss started off slow before building with more tension. You felt his soft lips move in sync with yours as his hands explored your curves, and your fingers locked in his blonde hair. He could taste the sweetness from the pancake and the syrup remiainings on your lips. After a minute, you pulled back, and your eyes fluttered open. He was speechless, breathing heavily from the adrenaline.
“Wha – what was that?” He was cut off from his heavy breathing.
Your lips curved into a light smile. “Your answer.”
“Do that again, and I will go crazy-” And you interrupted him with another kiss. His face turned red as his lips parted. “I’m being serious!” You giggled at his reaction.
“Sanji, I love you too. I have been in love with you for a while now, and I just thought you only saw me the same way you see Nami and Robin.”
“You don’t have to worry about that, my love.” He lifted your hand and kissed the back of it tenderly. “You are the only one I have eyes for.”

Now playing 𖹭 Superlove by Tinashe
WARNINGS: language/cursing ⸝⸝ making out ⸝⸝ reader lwk teasing sokka to the max ⸝⸝ I'm sorry if I mischaracterized Sokka (I never really wrote a character like this)
☁️ Rose's Note: I finally started watching the show for the first time! I remember seeing it on TV multiple times but I never played it 😭 But Sokka is my new favorite character and he fine shty EXPECIALLY WITH HIS LONG HAIR IN THE MOVIE LIKE BRO
𝓨OU ASKED SOKKA to play with his hair. Every. Single. Day. But the thing is, he always answers with a dramatic ‘NO!’ My hair is not to be played with.” But after many attempts and failures, he finally gave in.
“FINE! You can play with my hair!” Sokka smacked his head in defeat, leaving you with a wide, ear-to-ear grin from his words.
Once you sat behind Sokka with your legs beside his, Sokka reached his arm out to take the ponytail out of his hair, making it fall effortlessly down his shoulder.
“Here are a few rules.” The young man turned to face you while lifting a finger, “1. Do NOT cut my hair!”
“Wasn’t planning on it. But since you said that, you did give me an idea.” Your hand reached to your chin, acting like you were collecting an idea from it.
“No! You will not cut my hair!” He earned a giggle from you, which made him reach for his forehead again.
“M’sorry! I didn’t mean to laugh. What were the other rules?” You questioned as you grabbed the brush from beside you.
“And last rule. Do not give me an ugly hairstyle. You got it?” Sokka pointed his finger at you as an order, which you nodded.
“Okay! I won’t!” You say, which he raised a brow in suspicion before turning back.
You noticed the young man’s shoulders were tensed. You weren’t sure whether it was from nervousness or something else, but once you brushed your fingers through his soft, silky hair, his shoulder slowly began to loosen.
“Your hair feels so soft,” You say as you drag your fingers through his hair. Sokka shifted his position.
“Thanks, I guess,” Sokka turned his head slightly to the side. Your fingers massaged his scalp, leaving him to relax under your touch.
“So, how has work been?” You questioned.
“It’s been great. The kids in the town look up to me, and you know. I’m the coolest guy in town.” You could tell he had a confident, cheeky smile from his tone.
“Oh, really? I’m glad work is treating you well.” You tucked the hair behind his ear.
“How about you? How is it helping Aang?” He questions.
“You know, he never gives me a hard time, so I enjoy helping him and Katara.” He nodded at your words.
After a while, you moved your legs away from his before shifting in front of him. You brushed the edges before looking into his eyes.
Your lips curved into a smile in admiration. “You look so cute!”
“I’m not cute!” The man huffed, making you giggle from his words. “I’m handsome, not cute.” You watched how he looked away with a small pout, cheeks blushing slightly.
“But you are cute!” You teased again.
“Am not!” Sokka argued back, which you couldn’t help but let another giggle escape your lips.
As you brushed his hair, your face was inches from his. Your cheeks are warming, with a visible pink blending across them. His eyes wouldn’t leave yours as his Adam’s apple bobbed. You noticed the way he licked his lips as he stared into your eyes.
“So – uhm,” You interrupted. “Do you want me to put it back the way it was?”
Sokka swallowed the lump in his throat. “Yeah. If you want.”
You were about to remove the rubber band from your wrist until you had an idea, which made you laugh to yourself.
“Why are you laughing? You aren’t planning something behind my back, are you?”
“No, I’m not! I thought about something Katara said.” You lied.
“What was it?”
“Something she said her and Aang did a while ago. It popped up in my mind.” The man stared at you with suspicion before resting his eyes.
As you noticed, the man with his eyes closed, it gave you a chance to surprise him. You untied the pink ribbon from your brush before tying his hair with it. After a few moments, the man opened one eye before fully opening both with a slight glare on his face.
“You added a bow, didn’t you?” He stared at you, which you had a hand over your mouth, trying not to laugh at what you created.
“No, I definitely didn’t.” Sokka tilted his head to see his reflection through the mirror before his eyes lit up.
“YOU DID!” The man stood up and rushed to the mirror. “I told you not to give me an ugly hairstyle!” He turned to face you.
“So, you hate it?” You crossed your arms.
“No.” Sokka stopped in his tracks in realization. “No!- It’s just that it’s...” You still had your arms crossed, waiting for a response from him. “It’s…girly?”
Sokka sat back down at his original position. “But you called it ugly.”
“‘Cause it’s girly! I’m not supposed to wear pinks and bows!” The man whined as his hand reached to the side of his head.
“But you look cute.” You tucked his hair behind his ear, which his cheeks heated from the slightest touch.
“Okay, okay! Stop! Can you just take it out, please?”
“Okay, fine.” You went close to him to remove the ribbon, which made Sokka’s lips tremble from under you. He watched as your arms were moving while trying to untie the fabric material.
Before you backed away, Sokka’s hand reached your shirt instantly, making you look down at him in confusion before he pulled you to his level and smashed his lips against yours. Your eyes widen from the sudden movement. Once he pulled away, both of you were a complete blush mess.
“I’m sorry! I should’ve asked you for permission and-” Before he could finish, you cupped a hand on his cheek as you pressed your lips on his. Sokka deepened the kiss by cupping your cheeks with his hands, making you let out a sigh.
Once you both backed away, your chests were rising rapidly.
“Wha- why did you kiss me?” You finally say breathlessly.
“Why did you kiss back?” Your fingers reached the hem of your shirt as you played with it nervously. “I- I like you.”
“You – you do?” You repeated his words.
“Yes, I really do.” For one of the first times you knew Sokka, you never heard him pull his words into a simple, but sincere sentence without messing up.
“May I ask for how long?” You quizzed.
“I’m pretty sure when you helped save me from the circus girl or even before then, or–.” You chuckled. “I’m being serious! I just know that I liked you ever since we were kids.” Your lips curved into a smile as you looked into his blue eyes.
“Don’t do that.” Sokka pointed.
“Do what?” You say innocently, confused by his words.
“That- ugh – that look!”
“So I can’t look at you anymore?” You tilted your head in confusion.
“No–no, I mean yes! Yes, you can look at me. It’s just how you’re looking at me!”
“I can’t smile at you?” You noticed the way his finger tips gripped the carpet from underneath before moving his hands in the air.
“You look amazing. Like a goddess, and I don’t know how to control myself.” Sokka slapped a hand on his forehead. “You’re making me feel like a loser.”
“You’re not a loser. I find it cute.” The man pouted as he turned his face away.
“I’m not cute!”
“You are though.” Sokka let out a huff at your words. Once he turned to face you, a smirk appeared on his lips.
His hand reached your hip before pressing you onto his lap, and he smashed his lips to yours again. You were shocked by how fast everything happened because his other hand tangled in your hair as his other was tracing your curves.
“So, you’re still gonna call me cute?” Sokka says, sounding as if it were rather to himself.
Sokka tilted his head to deepen the kiss, making it easier to slip his tongue into the entrance. You nibbed on his bottom lip before slightly biting it, making him groan underneath.
“Damn it, woman. This’ll be the end of me.” He says in between kisses.
“Don’t pass out now.” You backed up to catch your breath until he pressed his lips back to yours.
“I won’t. Maybe, but I wouldn’t mind if it was because of you.” The hand that was on your hip traveled to your back, sneaking under your shirt before resting on your skin.
Sokka’s fingertips brushed against your skin as your fingers tangled into his hair. He analyzed your movements precisely, from how you gripped his shirt to how you let out a soft noise from him. It made him feel crazy.
“You like that?” He murmured. “You like how I’m making you feel?” You nodded at his words, making him laugh to himself.
He moved back to break the kiss, which you tilted your head in confusion. Sokka wrapped your legs around your waist before picking you up and placing you on the bed. You moved your arms behind you for support while lifting your knee from the mattress. You watched as Sokka grabbed the ribbon from the side before crawling towards you.
Sokka placed his hands beside your head, making his long, silky hair fall in front of him. “Do you want to continue? Or–” Sokka looked around nervously.
“I was hoping you would, since you placed me here.” You giggled.
“Right,” He awkwardly laughed. Your hand reached to his cheek, caressing it with your thumb before pulling his face close to yours. Sokka tilted his head as he deepened the kiss, hands traveling everywhere around you.

💭 Rose's Note: Summer is starting in a few days after I finish my exams and I have some fic ideas to write but idk how to push them out since I'm stuck in writers block. So here you go! And also sorry if it seems rushed!
𝓣HE Sunny was lively, with crewmates chatting with one another and doing their own thing, while some sat under the sun, including you. You were lying down on the grass in front of Robin and Nami, feeling the breeze brush against your skin. You closed your eyes before inhaling the chilly air and let out a relaxed sigh.
“It feels so nice outside.” You say, loosening your shoulders before placing your arms behind your head as a comfort.
“I know, right?!” Nami stretched her arms out, letting out a relieved sigh from the stretch. “The temperature is perfect, and the wind is relaxing.”
“And don’t forget the smell of tangerines and the sea!” You remarked.
“Yes! It feels like a perfect summer!” You opened your eyes, hearing Nami’s giggles.
Robin chuckled. “You’re right about that.” The woman gave a soft smile before flipping the page in her book.
“Y/n, why don’t you lie down on the chair?” Nami pats the chair beside her.
You shook your head. “I’m good.”
“Okay then.” Nami grabs her sunglasses and puts them on. From a distance, you can already see Sanji’s heart eyes rushing to you.
“You all look so magnificent, my ladies!” Sanji moved his tray in front of you. “Would you guys care for some lemonade?”
“Yes, please!” Nami says as she takes one, making Sanji place one of the glasses beside Robin.
“Do you want one, Y/n-dear?” Sanji says, holding the tray beside you.
“Yes!” You nodded, watching Sanji carefully hand you the glass. “Thank you!”
“No problem, love.” Sanji walked back into the cabin. You moved the glass in front of you, watching how the sun beams through it, making it look perfect with the blocks of ice cubes dancing slowly. You pressed the glass to your lips before taking a sip.
Once you moved the glass away, you let out a relieved sound. “Ah, that tastes so refreshing.” You closed your eyes as you leaned back.
“Y/N!” You recognized the cheerful voice approaching your figure. Your eyes widened in an instant, and you pulled yourself up. Before you could escape his daily routine of bothering you, Luffy wrapped his arms around you. He placed you on his lap and smooched wet kisses on your cheek, making Robin and Nami giggle at his actions.
“Luffy!” You giggled as his ticklish kisses traveled around your face. “Why do you always kiss me?”
He placed a last kiss on your cheek, “‘Cause I always feel like it.”
“But we are friends.” Luffy stared at you before looking up at the sky. He pulled you closer against his chest before placing his head on your shoulder.
“Friends can do this. I don’t see a problem.” You tilted your head in confusion. Before you could think deeply about it, he pressed more kisses on your cheek.
“Luffy!” You shrieked.
“Get off of her!” Nami says, dropping her glasses to the tip of her nose.
“You don’t tell me what to do!” Luffy says, pressing you closer to him, making your cheeks warm up. “She’s enjoying the moment!” Luffy pressed his hands on your cheeks, showing Nami your face, which reddened from his actions. “See?!”
Nami’s eyebrows furrowed, looking as if she were searching for something. “Y/n, are you…blushing?!” Nami tilted her head.
“NO! I’m not blushing!” You tried escaping the stretchy man’s grip, but he pulled you closer as giggles escaped his lips.
“You’re pretty weird!” You gave both Nami and Luffy a slight glare from embarrassment.
“Leave me alone!” You finally escaped his grip as you stood up, backing away from them. “You guys are so annoying!” You turned your head.
“It’s not my fault you were blushing at him,” Nami smirked, earning a chuckle from Robin.
“You’re with her too, Robin?!” You turned to face the other woman, who was still reading her book.
“I didn’t say anything,” Robin’s eyes drifted to yours before returning to her book.
“Ugh! You guys suck.” You walked back inside the cabin, making Luffy scratch the back of his head.
“What did I do?” Luffy scratched the back of his head.
“You know what you did!” Nami’s hand landed on the back of his head, making Luffy yelp.
“But you were laughing and asking weird questions too!” Luffy whined.
5 DAYS LATER
Ever since that day, you haven’t been able to look at Luffy the same. Even though it was a small, dumb reason to ignore Luffy, you couldn’t help your heart racing. Every time you saw Luffy roam around the ship, you always ignored him and helped the crewmembers, keeping yourself busy away from him. You couldn’t face him yet. You were scared. Scared of telling him how you feel because you didn’t want to distract him from his dream, and even so, get rejected because of that reason. Plus, you didn’t want that to ruin your guys’ friendship.
It took a few days for Luffy to realize that there was something wrong. You wouldn’t even notice his existence unless the members order you and Luffy to help out. Every time he sat beside you, you would make an excuse to leave the area, and every time he tried to ask you something, you always seemed to be in a rush. What’s wrong with her? Luffy thought to himself.
Luffy walked inside the kitchen to meet Nami’s figure, scavenging through the fridge for something. Great timing.
The stretchy boy sat on the stool. “Nami, do you know why Y/n isn’t trying to talk to me? She won’t even look at me.” Luffy rested his head on his arms, cluelessly. It was one of the first times that Nami saw him look down that wasn’t because of some dangerous fight.
“Maybe because you made her uncomfortable.” Nami leaned in front of him. “I know me and the rest of the crew have been watching from a distance, but how long have you been doing this?”
Luffy lifted his head for a second to try to remember before shrugging. “I dunno. Probably for a few months. But she doesn’t react or say anything besides to let her go.”
“Then why didn’t you let go when she said to?” Nami’s eyes furrowed.
“Because she doesn’t seem to mind when I hug her back.” At this point, Luffy’s logic was confusing the orange-haired woman. She even knew that what Luffy was saying was non-consensual, but then again, he did prove a point.
“Have you ever tried apologizing?”
“Why do I have to do that?” Nami slapped her hand on her forehead.
“What you are doing is making her uncomfortable! Plus, you never asked to hug her.”
“But I’m captain! I can do whatever I want!”
“Stepping into people’s boundaries is disrespectful! Just apologize and ask to hug her!” Luffy pouted as he was thinking about it. If he apologized, would you finally look at him? He couldn’t bear to see you ignoring his existence, and it’s not because he craves it. He just doesn’t want to see you upset or uncomfortable because of him.
THE NEXT DAY
Luffy waited the day out, which felt like forever since Nami ordered him to stay away longer, but guess what? He couldn’t wait any longer. So he took matters into his own hands and decided to find you around the ship.
You were resting under the sun. Arms wrapped behind your head while resting your eyes, feeling the chilly breeze giving you slight goosebumps, but you ignored it.
As you felt your body relaxing, your mind slowly drifted into a dream until you noticed something darkened. You opened your eyes to meet your captain, who was standing in front of your figure. You held eye contact for a few moments until he sat beside you.
You two sat in silence, hearing the wind howl and the sea brushing against the ship.
“I’m sorry.” Luffy finally says, making you face him. He turned his head to meet your eyes. “M’sorry if I made you uncomfortable.” You noticed how his tone dropped from something playful to something more sincere.
“You didn’t make me uncomfortable or anything!” You say, trying not to make him worry.
“Then why won’t you look at me?” Luffy’s face dropped with concern. “You walk past me and won’t even sit beside me anymore. I will stop hugging you, and I will give you my food if it makes you feel better-”
“No, you don’t have to do all of that! It’s because of something else.”
“Then what is it?” You turned your head away from him, feeling like your heart was beating out of your chest.
“It’s weird. So don’t worry about it. For now, I accept your apology.” Luffy stared at you for a few moments before looking away.
“Can I know what it is? Please?” Luffy’s tone was softer than before. You both stared into each other's eyes as the only sound in the distance was the wind. You noticed the small freckles and the bumpy scar under his eye, and the shadow underneath from his long eyelashes.
“You wouldn’t get it.” You averted your gaze from him.
“Hey! At least I’m trying! Now tell me!” Luffy's tone was stern, sounding more playful from your perspective, even though he was being dead serious.
Your hand reached for his vest, pulling him closer to you, which you noticed turned a little pink from confusion, before pressing a kiss on his cheek. You closed your eyes as you gave a passionate kiss on his cheek. You stayed in that position for about ten seconds before pulling away. Luffy’s face was flushed pink without him even realizing it, and his mouth agape from the sudden movement.
“W-what was that?” Luffy trembled on the first word before forcing it out.
“I like you, Luffy. I really do. I kept disappearing from you because I felt weird – not in a bad way, though! I just didn’t know how to face you, so I just kept pushing you away. I’m sorry for worrying you without an explanation.”
“I like you too!” Your eyes widen from his words.
“Huh-”
“I like you like how I love meat! But surprisingly better than that. I always feel like I want to keep you beside me because I feel like one day you’ll disappear from me. You won’t, will you?” Your mouth was parted. Your captain left you speechless.
“I won’t leave you, Luffy. Ever.” A soft expression spread across both of your faces. Luffy scooted closer to where you could feel his fingers brush against yours before lacing them together.
Luffy placed both of your hands on your lap as he leaned in to kiss your cheek. This time, it wasn’t a messy kiss he would usually give to you. It was passionate, filled with sincerity, and felt like he gave his whole world to you.
Luffy pulled away as he looked into your eyes, making you meet his dark brown orbs. “Then it’s set. You will be by my side forever.”

💭 Rose's Note: Hello everyone! This is my first time restarting fresh with a new account, but I am originally from @cinnayomiroll on tumblr! This is also technically my first post of the year but I have been writing lately for both anime and kpop! I am debuting with my (almost) first anime fic (even though this is the live action version). I make both kpop and anime fics so you can drop by my kpop acc or here for fic reqs!
𝓨OU only know the future world’s greatest swordsman as a prick. Roronoa Zoro, a cocky, dry-humored, nonchalant man who never stepped out of a battle and showed no mercy towards his opponents. You and Zoro are always at each other's throats and bicker with one another. Always ending the conversation with none of you winning, besides one of the other crew members. But for once, you didn’t feel any of the hatred towards him.
Zoro challenged a duel against Dracule Mihawk, one of the seven warlords of the sea and also known as the world's greatest swordsman. In which he ended the duel with a large, deep wound on his chest.
You were sitting beside Zoro, trying to find the right words to say to him as you remembered what Nami had said; you had to communicate with him in order for him to come back to the living.
“Zoro…” you whispered. “A lot has happened since you've been gone. I know it’s not really much to say, but I kind of already miss your weird presence even though we have known each other for a few weeks.” Your eyes drifted to his resting figure.
You had a lot more to say, but you kept those thoughts to yourself. You really wished he would wake up so you could punch him in the chest and call him an idiot, like how you usually do, but you couldn’t, and you knew that you shouldn’t.
So you say, “Whatever you do, please don't die on us. You haven't even accomplished your dream.”
Luffy and Usopp, who were standing inside the room with you, softened their eyes at your words. Even though they – well, all of you – only knew you two as cats fighting against each other, they still could feel that it came from the heart as a crewmate or even something deeper than that – a friend.
Your attention drifted to the boys. “I really hope he can wake up soon.” Luffy nodded to your response, understanding how you were feeling.
You felt a tight pain in your chest along with something you couldn't figure out exactly. Guilt? Sorrow? But the feeling was hard to control. It won’t stop hurting, as you could feel tears starting to form in your eyes.
“It's okay, Y/n,” Luffy says as he rests his hand on your shoulder, bringing you closer to his chest. Your eyes drifted to his arm before closing them. “He’ll come back to us.”
“But what if it's like how Ussop said. What if the chances are low of him coming back?” Ussop's lips parted as he was going to say something, but nothing came out.
After a few seconds, you backed away from the hug and wiped your tears away.
“Can I stay here for a bit?” You sniffed before facing Ussop, then at Luffy.
Luffy nodded. “Of course.” Ussop nodded along as he followed Luffy out of the room. Before they walked away, Ussop stopped in his tracks.
“If anything happens, let us know.” You nodded at his response before he walked out of the room. You turned back to face Zoro before sitting down at a chair beside the bed.
Your mouth opened, only letting out a hiccup before you rested your elbows on your knees, resting the palms of your hands on your head in distress.
“That’s the first time I've heard you worry about me.” You heard a familiar, low voice from beside you, making you lift your head in an instant.
“ZORO??” Your palms rested on the mattress as you leaned in front of him. “YOU’RE AWAKE! LUFFY! USSOP! ZORO IS AWAKE!-” You called out their names before leaning in to hug him, receiving a painful groan from him.
“Careful-” Once you noticed, you backed away from him quickly.
“Sorry.” Zoro examined you for a moment before letting out a small chuckle. You stared at his figure and sighed.
“All of us were so worried about you.” You finally say. “And you even frightened us. I’m not going to argue with you anymore about it since you did what you had to do, and it was your dream. I understand where Luffy is coming from, but next time you want to just pick a fight with someone, do it with someone you know who is weaker than you.”
Zoro’s mouth parted as if something was going to come out, but he closed it. He rested his eyes for a moment as his eyebrows furrowed.
“You’re so bossy.” He mumbled, not even in an annoyed way, but in a playful way.
After a few seconds, his eyes fluttered open and drifted to yours. You two held eye contact for a moment. And during that moment, you felt like time had stopped for you. You felt heavy tension rising in the air along with your heart beating in your chest. You always looked at him, but not in this kind of way. You finally got the chance to see his facial features more clearly. His dark brown, narrowed eyes always make him look intimidating, but he has softened his gaze.
You liked this side of him. The surprisingly relaxing side of him, where he isn’t being cocky, nor being aggressive. The only time you would see him relaxing like this is when he sleeps outside, which makes your cheeks warm up. You want to ignore these feelings. The feeling where you could feel butterflies dancing in your stomach, and the feeling where you wished you could stare at him all day, but it was impossible to stop it.
You averted your gaze from him. “Stop looking at me like that.” You say as you found the wall more interesting.
“Looking at you like what?” He questions innocently, even though there was a hint of teasing.
“That look you do! Ugh–” You placed your hand on your head in frustration. Zoro chuckled again at your reaction.
You two paused again, letting the comfortable silence fall between you. For once, you wished this could go on for hours. Both of you are staring at one another with curiosity about who would make a move and with tension. You felt intimidated by his unreadable face. You weren’t sure what he felt. Is he trying to argue with you? Or does he want this tension to go on forever just like you?
Zoro leaned his head closer to yours until you could feel each other’s lips brushing against one another. Before he could lean in fully, you heard the door creak open, making you jump away from his body.
“ZORO!” Luffy says as he rushes over to him, making Ussop’s eyebrow raise at you. You laughed at how Luffy did the same thing you did, which was hugging him tight. Zoro winced in pain again, making Luffy back away. “You’re awake!”
“Maybe you could do that later.” Zoro sounded like he was at his last breath, making Luffy back away.
“I’m sorry.” Luffy still had his hands on the swordsman’s shoulders. You stepped out of the room to give Luffy space alone with Zoro.
What had just happened a few moments ago?
—
A FEW HOURS LATER – 4:23 P.M
It had been hours since Zoro woke up, and when everyone was preparing to set sail, you were surprised by a new crewmate: Sanji, the cook from Baratie.
“Sanji?” Luffy used his hand to cover his eyes as he spotted his figure approaching the deck with his bag.
“You said that you needed a cook.” Sanji grinned.
Luffy approached Sanji, reaching his hand to him. “Welcome aboard.” Luffy greeted, making Sanji shake and continue walking ahead.
“Sanji joining?” You leaned against the railing.
“I guess so,” Ussop says as he leans against the railing beside you, staring at Sanji, who walks onto the ship.
“What the hell is that cook doing here?” A familiar calm voice startled you. You swiftly turned your attention to him. Zoro rested his hand on his sword, which was placed beside his hip.
“Zoro, you’re supposed to be resting!” You groaned. “Just go back to the room and-”
“You’re not the boss of me.” You let out a huff. You were annoyed that he was always nonchalant and calm, which was testing your nerves.
“We need a cook! We can’t go on our journey starving!” Luffy's lips quirked up, making Sanji mirror his smile.
Zoro’s eyes drifted to everyone, then at you, before turning around and sitting near the chilly area on the ship.
As Sanji scanned everyone, his eyes drifted to yours before smiling. “You’re the sweetheart who sat at the same table as them.”
“Yeah,” you say as you flash a light smile.
“Are you hungry?” Sanji says as he adjusts his jacket.
“I am a little bit.”
“What would you like? Breakfast, lunch, or a snack? French toast, pancakes, scrambled eggs, grilled cheese sandwich, soup, or the specialties from the Baratie-”
“I would like some French toast.” You interrupted him before he could name off something you had never heard of before.
The blonde’s lips curved into a smile, “Alright, madam. Give me about ten to fifteen minutes. Would you like water or juice?”
“I would like some water, please. Thank you!” Sanji readjusted his strap from the bag before walking inside the cabin.
Zoro watched you and Sanji from afar before mumbling something to himself and grabbing one of the weights.
20 MINUTES LATER
It’s been twenty minutes since you set sail to search for Nami. Sanji was in the kitchen cooking everyone's lunch while chatting with Luffy and Usopp. Then there was Zoro, who was lifting one of the lighter weights in the shade.
Zoro placed the weight on the ground and tried to stand up from the wooden floor, but winced in pain. “Shit,” he cursed under his breath.
You rushed to his figure and immediately held onto his arm. “Zoro, just go and lie down back on the bed–”
Zoro grumbled, “How many times do I have to tell you? You’re not the boss of me, and I don’t need your help.”
“If you keep trying to move around, you could seriously open your wounds.” Zoro turned to face you while crossing his muscular arms over his chest. “I’m being serious, Zoro!”
“Since when were you so protective of me?” Zoro tilted his head in curiosity.
“You literally almost died, and you think you will be able to fight Arlong with the current state that you’re in!” You fired at him.
“Do you know how many fights I won being in a bad state?” Zoro leaned in close to you, but not too close to suffocate your space. “I can beat a hundred men with one arm tied behind my back if I wanted to.”
“You’re so stubborn. You always do things the hard way–” You pointed towards him.
The rest of the crew walked in on you two fighting and stared at one another before facing you again.
“When will they stop fighting?” Ussop says to himself.
“Were they always like this?” Sanji quizzed before facing Ussop.
“Yeah. Even when I met them, they were like this.”
“Fine, I will let you go. I don’t care anymore since you always want to do everything your way.”
“I never wanted your help to begin with.” You felt your eyebrows twitch from his words.
“Well, at least I–” You were interrupted by Zoro stepping in front of you, cupping your cheek with his hand, and smashing his lips against yours in a quick motion, leaving everyone in shock.
Everything happened at once; you couldn’t even process what even happened in those few seconds. The kiss was rough, as if he had waited for an opening, but it slowed down to something different. You felt a hint of him meaning it. You could feel how slightly chapped, yet soft, his lips were as they moved in sync with yours.
Luffy tilted his head in confusion before a slight grin spread across his face, while Ussop and Sanji’s mouths dropped.
“They were not always like this,” Ussop says as he faces Sanji, who had his mouth agape.
“Well, that solved their problem.” Luffy laughed as he gestured his hand out.
After a few seconds, Zoro backed away, leaving you speechless. “That’ll make you shut up.” He stepped away from your figure and walked to the front of the ship.
“Hey! You can’t just kiss a woman without her consent!” Sanji scolded.
“Shut it, cook,” Zoro says before he walks inside the ship.
You were still frozen in your position while still processing what had just happened a few moments ago. Your heart was beating at a rapid pace, and you could still feel his presence lingering on your lips. Your finger reached your lips as your cheeks turned pink from thinking about it.
