#and their evil little happy celebrating at the end was so cute it's unreal

[momentomori24]

THEY ARE SO INSUFFERABLE AND HORRIFIC AND AWFUL BUT SO AMAZING AND DORKY AND THIS PART IS SO UNFAIRLY FUNNY AND CUTE AND WHOLESOME-- PLEASE, PLEASE HAVE MORE SCREENTIME IN S2. PLEASE LET THEM TAKE OVER THE SHOW. I KNOW THEY'RE HORRIBLE PEOPLE BUT I NEED MORE OF THE VEES.

And the most important scene of them all (to me):

First of all, how is Vox doing that. Second, you just know that these two douchebags are going to bang so hard with Alastor getting his ass kicked replaying in the background after this. I hate them so much.

Pairing: Zoro x Ayumi

Warnings: swear words

A/N: Let´s see how Ayumi´s and Zoro´s journey continues…

She wore a smile like a gun. He didn´t like how intimidating she was. After all, she was captured by him, voluntarily. Still, he felt like prey, her prey. It made him more than uncomfortable and he could swear her cleavage got bigger by the instant. There was a story in her eyes, he wanted to know.

Soon he could make out land, finally the awkward silence would be over. “We´re there” he let her know. It felt so unreal, all the time he spent on finding her and when he did, all she did was silently come with him. The pirate queen surrendered to him. Roronoa Zoro. “Very well then, I believe it´s the end of our little journey. Maybe next time ask who you´re thinking to deliver to the marines” she sounded angry. “Hey! You! What do you think you´re doing! Let her go immediately!” as soon as they arrived at the marine base, the soldiers were at their feet, shocked to see that the actress got captured by a bounty hunter. “What´s all the wuss? I´m delivering you the pirate queen and I don´t even get a thank you?” he didn´t understand what was happening. “It´s not real, it´s just a jape for tourism! She´s an actress. The pirate queen never existed, the bounty is fake too. Just let her go” they explained in a rush. Suddenly it all made sense, and Zoro very angry. He wasted his time. “So that´s why you didn´t say anything. Or fight. I was fooled!” he frowned at her, before leaving. “Thanks for the lift!” she cheered. He growled and set sail to get real pirates. This certainly wasn´t the last time he would see the fake pirate queen, who wasn´t so fake after all.

They met again when she needed it the most. Her brother just left her again, making empty promises she knew he wouldn´t keep. How could he? He wasn´t the family failure after all. Still, she loved him and was happy whenever she had the chance to be with him. This time he trained with her again, she was getting better. She didn´t really need to fight, but it was fun, all she ever could do was kill. And now, finally she was allowed to dance with steel, a beautiful dance, her father forbade her to learn. And now she was perfect, better than her brother. Like she said ten years ago. “You need to defend yourself against dirty pirates” Dracule let her know with a smile. They laughed. “They need to defend themselves against me!” she pointed her sword at the sky. “I need to go, sweet sister, I´ve got business with Shanks” he excused himself. “I can come with you!” she missed Shanks, she was raised by him and his crew. “You need to live your own life” Dracule said. “My own life is boring, I have no goal, no passion, no adventure. I need something to make me feel alive” she pleaded. “We will meet again” he promised. His visits were always so short.

She watched him as he vanished into the fog and went back to the village. They were celebrating a victory. Earlier that day, pirates attacked the village, she saw and prevented it, sending them running to their ships and mothers. She was the one people were afraid of once, she hated it. She never wanted to be evil or cause trouble, she just wanted to live. But the decisions that took it, were gruesome. And when the marines offered her money to sell out her friends, she took it. She needed to let everything go, live a life based on lies. One day, she met him. The infamous pirate hunter Roronoa Zoro. He changed her life and since that day she couldn´t get him out of her mind. Because of him she screwed the marines over and finally lived how she wanted to live again.

“Thank you!” the villagers screamed, they threw treasure and flowers at her, invited her into all their homes to eat with them. She thanked them all for their kindness and made her way to a bar. She needed alcohol, still angry from the rushing escape of her brother who denied her to meet with Shanks again. “Give me your strongest rum, if you would be so kind” she sighed, sitting down in front of the barkeeper. Her left hand massaged her temples, the day had been stressful after all. “You! It was you earlier. I can´t thank you enough. If you weren´t there this building would be gone. You mustn´t pay” the barkeeper told her, his eyes sparkling. “I cannot bring myself to pay with your money, or not at all. I´m just giving back what I once took” she denied, heavily shaking her head. “I refuse to take your money, but you can visit more often, we would all like that” he finally said, handing her a whole bottle of rum. She eagerly opened it and took a long sip. “You are too kind.” she stated. She heard a familiar chuckle and turned her head. Her face lit up, finally something that made her heart race. “Zoro!” she smiled at him. He sat down next to her. “What are you doing here?” she asked. “I heard this village was attacked by pirates, but I guess I´m too late” he looked at her with such intensity, she wanted to look away to hide her blush, but she needed to keep watching him. His smirk, the way he scanned her, his shirt was getting tighter, she could swear. He blushed as he noticed her eyes trailing to his chest.  “Take me with you” she suddenly blurted out, her pleading eyes darting back to his. He seemed surprised. “Why?” he asked, not trying to imagine that she would be with him alone all the time. “My life is pretty boring right now” she admitted, looking down, feeling silly for the question. He laughed, she felt even more silly now. “It´s alright, I guess you work alone, I would be a burden, I can´t even fight...” she started rambling. Why did she even ask? “I don´t care if you can´t fight, but it is a funny coincidence. My life has gotten quite boring too” he told her. “You´re a pirate hunter, how can your life be boring?” she asked. “Every day´s the same, I could use a change”

“You´re not getting nearly enough sleep” she has been worried about him ever since she joined him a few months ago. Her feelings since their first meeting have only grown stronger. Of course he didn´t hear her, he dozed off again after they have eaten. It was nighttime now and she wanted to go to sleep as well, but he was sleeping on deck and it was cold. She sighed and sat down beside him, lightly touching his shoulder. “Zoro...” she whispered. He opened his eyes. “What?” he whispered back. “It´s cold, you need to go to bed” she demanded. “You´re sleeping in the bed, I´m fine up here” he said. She groaned and punched his chest. “Get up!” she said. He rolled his eyes. “Now!” she demanded again. Finally he obeyed. She took his hand and led him to the bed. “Go to sleep, for fuck´s sake” she crossed her arms. “I can´t sleep” he admitted. “I´m worried about you” she told him, pushing him back and grabbing a blanket, but he stopped her. “There´s no need to be worried” he tried to reassure her. Ayumi wouldn´t have it. “Bullshit! If you can´t get a good night´s sleep, you´ll die. I won´t let that happen, so get to fucking bed” she gave him the blanket more demanding, before she joined him. He was beyond uncomfortable, didn´t dare move an inch. Ayumi turned to face him. “Tell me what´s wrong...” she pleaded, taking his hand. His heart jumped at the action, he wanted to wrap his arm around her, but he knew he couldn´t. Why did she have to be so cute worrying about him? “I´m fine, Ayumi” he reassured her, but she knew he was lying. But it was okay, she had things she wouldn´t tell anyone too. She looked at Zoro, really looked at him. There was something about him, she couldn´t wrap her head around, something that drew her to him. And god knows what went through her head at that time, but his eyes, which looked into hers, their faces only inches away, she could feel his breath and nobody could deny the tension between them. She just had to… Ayumi moved her hand and rested it on Zoro´s cheek, before she closed her eyes and leaned in. When their lips touched, Zoro closed his eyes too, his heart was beating ten times faster,  this was really happening to him. A rush of electricity went through their bodies and Ayumi wanted more, so she deepened the kiss. Zoro pulled her nearer to him in resting his arm around her waist. Ayumi slipped her tongue out and nipped at Zoro´s bottom lip, when he opened his mouth, she swirled her tongue around his, evolving in a beautiful dance. They wished they could stay like this forever, but eventually they had to part for air. So they laid panting, looking at each other full of passion and adoration. Zoro was the first to find his voice. “Don´t leave me” he husked. “Promise” Ayumi told him and climbed on top of him.
