I posted this story on Tumblr and people seemed to like it, so I decided that I would post it here as well :P It comes forth from a converstaion with Vergina-spva about having Zoro as a neighbour. Then this happened XD


Everyday was the same. When the blonde man closed his door behind him to go to work, his neighbour would come back from his nightshift. They would pass each other, usually ignoring each other aside from a slight nod. And an occasional glace.

Sanji would step into his car and watch his neighbour disappear into his house, never looking back. He would sigh, wishing for the millionth time he had said something. But he never did.

The green haired man had moved into his building about a year ago. He had always lived next to the sweetest old lady, who was always prepared to lend him some sugar. Then the lady had moved into a retirement home and Sanji had hoped a young woman would take her place. And then that showed up.

He had baked a pie for his new neighbour, but instead of a beautiful woman, that man had opened the door. The most handsome man he had ever seen. Tall, muscular – but not overly so – and tanned which had to be natural. Three golden earrings hung in his left ear. Dark eyes looked at Sanji, causing his breath to catch.

He panicked. He was ashamed to admit it, but though he had never been shy to walk up to the most beautiful woman in the room, he had no idea how to handle a man like that. A man that was now his neighbour.

He had shoved the pie into the man's hands and mumbled something about welcoming him to the building, before he fled back to his apartment. Yes, the great Sanji Blackleg had fled from a handsome man.

After that they fell into this routine of nodding at each other. It became pure torture for the blonde, especially when he discovered his neighbour's ass was as amazing as the rest of his body.

At night it was the same, only the other way around. Sanji would come back from work, exhausted, and the green haired man would leave all energized. A polite nod was exchanged and they parted ways again.

This night was different however. While Sanji dragged his tired body towards the door, he wasn't met by the pleasant sight of his gorgeous neighbour. He sighed deeply. Maybe it was he had the night off. Or he had left early. It was too bad either way; seeing the man, even if he didn't speak to him, always lifted his spirit and made his day, however lousy it had been.

Sighing again, he let himself into his apartment and plopped on the couch. He could fall asleep right away, but his eyelids had hardly fallen close when suddenly the doorbell rang.

Hoisting himself up again, he dragged himself to the door. Opening it, he was greeted by the sight of a large box. A large box with two gorgeous, strong looking legs underneath.

"Hello?" he asked surprised.

"A package came for you today," a surprisingly deep voice said.

"Thanks." Still a little surprised he took over the large box, placing it in his apartment. Then he looked up to thank the delivery man. And froze.

In the door post his neighbour was standing, wearing black baggy pants and a blue tank top, showing off his muscles beautifully. Trying his best not to drool, Sanji realised that the man looked at him expectantly. "Oh, yeah… Thank you," he stammered.

"I never had a chance to return this either." The man showed him the cake tin he had delivered the pie in, almost a year ago. He had bought new one in the meantime.

The green haired man scratched the back of his head. "Sorry, but you never seem to be at home when I am. I don't think we have been introduced. Zoro." He held out his hand.

Swallowing, the blonde shook his hand, trying not to swoon. "Sanji."

Did he imagine it, or lasted the handshake a moment too long?

Zoro kept standing in the doorway, hands in his pockets and seemingly lost at words. Finally seizing his chance, a smile appeared on Sanji's lips. "Would you like to come in?"


I have no idea how to continue this, so if you like to see another chapter, send me some ideas :P Will Zoro come in? (yes, he will, MyLadyDay already decided that XD) Why is Sanji's package so big? (sorry for the pun XD)

I have never worked with prompts before, so it will be a nice challenge ;) So, tell me how to continue :)
