A/N: I couldn't not write a OPLA!Zoro piece for my series after the little teaser that came out today. Strawhat slumber party??????? I LOVE
You don't have to read the series, but if you'd like to, you can find it here!
"You realize Luffy's been here the whole time, right?"
Looking up from the book she'd been previously peacefully sleeping, Nami quirks a brow at you.
"Surely, I would've heard him--"
As if she speaks it into existence, in the very next second, a loud snore carries across the room. Stifling the laugh that threatens to bubble out of your lips, you watch as Nami moves to the end of her bed, finally noticing Luffy who'd placed himself there a while ago.
You'd seen him when you'd come into your room, with the intention of following Nami's lead and taking advantage of some quiet reading time. You'd paused at the sight of him, brows raised, but when you noticed how peaceful he looked and how Nami, at the time, hadn't seemed bothered, you'd shrugged it off.
It didn't occur to you until twenty minutes later that Nami just might've, somehow, not known he was there.
"Luffy."
Pushing yourself to your feet just as Nami calls out to your Captain, a giggle escapes your lips when he continues to simply snore, prompting your navigator to deliver a rather sharp smack over the top of his head. Luffy jumps immediately at the touch, catching his strawhat from falling just in the nick of time as he blinks owlishly at you.
"Luffy," Nami calls again, "what are you doing here?"
"Is your room not good enough to nap in?" You tease, tilting your head at Luffy as you crouch in front of him.
Unphased, as always, Luffy beams at the both of you.
"Nami! Y/N!" He greets, "I had an idea. I realized every great pirate crew needs some good, quality bonding time!"
Meeting your eyes, Nami frowns.
Throwing his hands up in the air, Luffy is oblivious to Nami's hesitance. "So we're having a slumber party!"
"No, no," Nami argues instantly, "we're not having a slumber party."
Just as she finishes her words, the door to your shared room opens and in comes Sanji with two trays. "I made snacks!" He grins, "truffle popcorn for the group!" As he shuffles in, Usopp comes bounding in behind him with the projector snail and a grin, waving at you as you stand, moving out of Sanji's way.
"For the group, Luffy," Sanji mumbles as Luffy tries to snatch the popcorn for him.
"And I fixed the snail projector," Usopp says, face falling as he pauses in recollection. "Which... it's kind of a disturbing process."
Hands on your hips, you grin at Nami; "looks like our rooms been hijacked."
She huffs, rolling her eyes but the fond smile that curls on her lips as Sanji takes a seat next to her is undeniable.
Just then, the door opens again. Your face instantly brightens at the sight of Zoro.
"Zoro!" Luffy calls, "you made it!"
Surveying the room, Zoro meets your eyes, gaze softening, before turning to Luffy and shrugging. "You said there'd be booze."
With that, he turns to grab a chair and decision made, you move over to Sanji, who's already holding the bottle of sake he'd grabbed out towards you. He sends you a wink as you grab at, smiling shyly at him before moving your way around the bed.
"So, question," Sanji turns to Zoro, "do you sleep with those swords?"
Pausing just as you hand the sake to him, Zoro's face is blunt as he says; "maybe."
You let out a soft giggle at that, Zoro watching you for a moment before stepping behind you to grab a spare chair.
"Okay," Nami sighs, "I guess we are having a slumber party."
"It's showtime!" Sanji grins at her.
Usopp finishes setting up the white sheet that will act as your mock projector screen, letting out giggles of excitement as he sits down with a blanket. Realizing the movie is about the start, you turn to ask Nami to make some room for you when a hand falls on your hip, pulling you back.
The lights click off, shrouding you in darkness as your back falls into a familiar chest. You turn, catching Zoro's gaze in the lowlight as he smirks at you, settling you on his lap.
"Won't you get uncomfortable?" You whisper to him, not wanting to disturb the others as the movie starts.
Zoro quirks a brow at you, as if asking if you're really asking that, before proceeding to slip his arm around your waist and pull you flush against him. A flush coats your cheeks as he does, but you let yourself lean into his embrace, watching as he tilts his head back to take a spit of the sake before turning to focus on the movie.
-
An hour into the movie and you and Zoro are the only ones still awake.
Usopp, despite his initial excitement, had been the first to fall asleep. You'd caught the end of his head tipping before he righted himself, only to proceed to do the same thing for the next five minutes. Luffy's snores filtered the room shortly after and then, when you'd turn to say something to Nami, you'd noticed her and Sanji resting peacefully on her swinging bed.
Honestly, you'd expected Zoro to be the first to fall asleep, since he regularly napped. So you were pleasantly surprised when you felt his fingers brush against the hem of his shirt and his eyes on you.
"They're the ones who wanted to do this and they're the first to fall asleep," he snorts, voice low as he glances down at Luffy and Usopp.
You giggle, "I mean, part of a slumber party is to... slumber, right?"
Raising a brow, Zoro just chuckles, shrugging as he takes another sip of his sake.
Realizing there wasn't much point to watching movie any longer, especially now that you were hyperaware of the fact that it was just you and Zoro awake, and the fact that you'd honestly struggled to pay attention the whole time... you shift on Zoro's lap. You tilt so you're turned towards him, and reach your hand out.
He eyes your hand, blinking, before handing you the sake.
"Thought you didn't like drinking."
Shrugging, you smile as you take a sip. It burns down the back of your throat and a series of coughs leaves your lips as you swallow, prompting Zoro to laugh, as he takes the sake back.
"Wanted to know why you're always drinking it," you mumble, still catching your breath. "That's awful."
"You get used to it," Zoro explains. Then, wiping at your mouth, Zoro raises a brow; "you've really never had any sake before?"
You shake your head, "no. And I probably won't again."
"I'll get you to like it," Zoro says, causing you to blink up at him.
Smiling, you bite your lip; "yeah?"
"Yeah," he nods. "After all, my girl's gotta be able to handle her liquor."
Something flutters in your stomach at his words, a shiver crawling up the back of your spine as you meet Zoro's gaze in the low moonlight, eyes twinkling.
"Your girl?"
Smirking, Zoro shrugs; "do you not like it?"
"No," you mumble, fiddling with your fingers. "I definitely like it."
He snorts, again, this time laced with affection and feeling a surge of confidence, you lean forward, pressing a kiss to the edge of his lips. The action surprises Zoro, you can tell by the way his body freezes at the touch, and you smile to yourself, proud to have caught him off guard and move to lean back.
The bottle of sake clatters to the ground with a loud thump, but before you can even tell him off for being loud, his hand is on the back of your head and he's pulling you forward to press his lips against yours.
You gasp into his mouth and Zoro takes full advantage of it, slipping his other arm around your waist to pull you closer.
Then, the lights flicker on.
You pull away, jumping as your eyes squint at the sudden light. It takes you a second, but you see Nami standing by the light switch, hands on her hips.
"Get a room, you two."
Cheeks burning, you hide your face in your hands. Zoro, unbothered, simply shrugs, moving to lean forward, you still in his arms and shifting with him, and grabs his rogue bottle of sake off the ground.
"Ugh," Usopp calls from his spot, "who turned on the lights?"
He's followed by a loud snore from Luffy.
Sanji raises his head; "Nami, did something happen?"
Meeting your eyes, Nami smirks at you; "we didn't finish the movie."
Relieved she didn't say more, your shoulders ease as Zoro chuckles behind you.
"Ah!" Usopp calls, loud enough it stirs Luffy awake. "I don't even remember when I fell asleep."
"Is there any popcorn left?" Luffy groans, rubbing at his eyes.
As the chatter continues, you turn to Zoro, lips still tingling from the way he'd kissed. He meets your gaze, smirking, and something twinkles in his gaze.
