Health update on the bottom. If anyone wants to know.

The sun had set, as the night was darkening the sky. Sanji walked hand and hand with a woman who held his arm and watched the warmth escape her nose and lips. Sanji smiled walking down the sidewalk with her. They stopped to a cafe where Sanji worked. And stepped inside while the woman went to find a place to sit as Sanji ordered the two complicated coffee's. Once they were served Sanji picked up the cups and walked them over to her.

She tossed her rose gold hair over her shoulder and batted her emerald green eyes. Her lips were pressed in a line and looked out the window as Sanji sat before her. But she didn't pay any attention to him. Her emerald eyes kept to the window as Sanji went on about his day. The woman then sighed and turned to Sanji.

"Sanji. We need to talk." She started.

"What is it love?" Sanji asked.

She sighed, "I can't do this anymore. This little thing between you and me isn't working. I want to have a good time. But fuck Sanji, you haven't even touched me or anything."

He furrowed slightly, "What do you mean?"

"Don't tell me your this dense."

Sanji cocked a brow as she gave a ticked off grunt and stood.

"Goodbye Sanji."

He blinked watching her storm off leaving Sanji alone with his thoughts. Tears pricked the corners of his eyes as he clutched onto his cup of coffee. Nami perked up from behind the counter seeing Sanji tremble slightly. Once she finished her final order she lifted the door of the counter and stepped through. Closing it behind her. She stepped up to Sanji and took a seat before him. He glanced up to her before wiping his tears with the palm of his hand.

"Oh. Hi Nami." Sanji said.

"What happened?" She asked.

Sanji looked up to her, "She left me. Because I never touched her. And have a good time."

Nami pursed her lips, when the door was opened. Ivan walked in with a thin stack of flyers in his hands. He turned to Nami and Sanji and smiled wide.

"Oh my darlings. I'm so happy to see you." Ivan grinned.

"Not now Ivan, Sanji just got dumped." Nami said.

Ivan gasped taking a seat on the other side of him, "Poor dear. What happened?"

"She says he's not good at intimacy." Nami rolled her eyes.

"Well we can test that."

They turned to him, "How so?"

Ivan handed them a flyer, "My new business, my own Candy Store."

Sanji looked to the flyer, before he handed it back to Ivan.

"I'm not looking for another woman Ivan." He sighed.

"I have more than just women, men too. You can have a muscle man, or a nice Caramel toned man. Hmm? A nice six pack. Or maybe some chocolate in your life."

"Alright fine, I'll look into it later."

Sanji snapped the flyer away along with his cup and walked home. Where he opened and shut his door and slumped before the door. He rested his head back to the door and sighed.

"What am I going to do now?"

He rummaged in his pocket for a small box with a golden ring. Sanji sighed tossing it away onto the couch before getting up. Sanji went to his room and undressed himself. When he heard the crumple of paper in his pocket. He pulled out the flyer and pursed his lips.

"Maybe one of them can help." Sanji muttered.

And picked up his phone and dialed the number. Sanji pressed the phone to his ear. It rang for a moment before the phone was picked up. Sanji bit his lip clutching onto his pants.

"This is the Candy Boy store, where you have all the curves and our candies with no breaks. This is Inazuma. How can I help you?" He asked.

Sanji swallowed, "Ivan told me to call."

"Yes just a minute."

Ivan perked up from his files when the phone started to ring. He pushed off his filing cabinet and swiveled over to the phone. He picked up the phone and hummed.

"This is Ivan how can I help you?" He asked.

"Hey Ivan." Sanji sighed.

"Sanji! I'm so glad you called. How are you doing sweetheart?"

"I'm fine. I. I just want someone to help with. Getting intimate."

"Oh of course. One moment I'll transfer your call."

Scar sat on a leather chair with leather lace up boots, panties and choker bralette set. With a hint of lace on his hips and what the choker was made of. He ran a hand through his fresh and wild green hair as he was going over a male dirty magazine. He kicked a leg over his knee cocking his head slightly. His eye looked over the flexibly of the model in the magazine.

The phone started to ring having the man reach over and pick up the phone. He pressed the phone to his ear flipping to the next page.

"This is Scar, I love every bone in my body. Especially yours." He said.

Sanji felt his cheeks heat up before he cleared his throat. Scar perked up looking to the wall across the room.

"I've been told you can help me get. Intimate." Sanji said.

"There are many ways." He started and kicked his legs over the arm of the couch, twirling the cord in his free hand, "I can give you phone sex, I can blow you, or we can have sex. Or all three."

Sanji swallowed thickly, "Um. I'd like to take it slow."

"Alright, what do you want me to call you then?"

"Mr. Prince."

"Alright, Mr. Prince. How about we get started tomorrow night? About seven okay?"

Sanji smiled, "Yes, I'd like that very much."

Scar smiled, "I would too."

"I uh, I just got dumped because I don't know how to touch."

The man gave a low chuckle having Sanji pull the phone closer to his ear.

"Then, we will have to fix that won't we?"

"Yeah. Um. Is your name actually Scar?"

He chuckled, "How dare you I might of been born with that name."

Sanji laughed back, "Hey can't a guy be curious?"

"Oh, But Mr. Prince is a normal name?"

"Hush would you."

The two spent hours chatting, making the other laugh and helped cheer Sanji up. Scar did help lift Sanji's spirits and made him forget about the whole dumping thing. Until. Sanji had fallen asleep on the man having Scar smile and hang up the phone. Hoping to hear from Mr. Prince the following day.

"Zoro!" Sanji called.

He placed a cup of coffee on the counter along with a bagel. Nami stepped into the cafe having Sanji smile. A man with fresh and wild green hair took the bagel and the coffee. Before going to the small stand with sweetener and all kinds of powders.

"Your pretty chipper today." Nami commented.

Sanji hummed leaning against the counter, "Well I found someone to help with getting intimate. He works for Ivan."

"Oh do tell what's he like?"

The man with green hair glanced over his shoulder to the two baristas chatting.

"His name is Scar. But that's all I know about him." Sanji said.

The green haired man bolted out of the cafe and didn't look back. Sanji and Nami glanced to each other before back to the door.

"Anyway. I'm supposed to hear from him tonight. He sounds really nice." Sanji said.

"Hey hey, none of that. You get attached to easy." Nami said.

He sighed, "You're right."

She patted his shoulder, "Sanji would it be okay if I got off early? Vivi needs me at home."

He nodded, "Yeah, tell her I say hi."

Once noon came around Nami said her goodbyes before heading out. She walked a good distance before heading into a telephone company. A man with orange and white hair perked up to her.

"Inazuma. I need to talk to Zo- I mean Scar." She said.

The following night Sanji sat in his favorite t shirt and boxers with a small box of strawberries next to him. He fluffed his pillow before slumping back against it and picked up the phone.

Scar sat on his chair. His body covered in a black leather bodysuit that cut off at his hips and had small zippers on each side of the suit zipper. He zipped it down just enough for some cleavage he also wore thigh high black boots to match. He was looking at his phone looking through his messages he exchanged with Nami. His work phone rang having him perk up. He checked the time seeing it was seven. He smirked picking up the phone and pressed it to his ear.

"Scar?" Sanji asked.

The man chuckled, "You sound eager."

"Oh, I've been thinking about you all day."

Scar was silent a moment before he shifted crossing his legs.

"Well, I saw you today. Can't say I'm not impressed. Mr. Prince."

Sanji smiled, "Why didn't you say anything. I would of-"

"I keep my business and my personal life apart. But I'm glad to talk to you now."

Sanji chuckled pulling up his knees, "So. How does this work?"

Scar looked to the door before back to his lap, "I'd rather have us meet up in person. I have rented a hotel room for tomorrow night at the Sunny. Room 1031."

"Oh, okay. Do you want me to bring something to eat? I can make some aphrodisiac foods."

Scar chuckled, "Sound's delicious."

"I can't wait. Um. Do you think after we could maybe do this again or-"

"As I said, my personal life and my business life do not mix. But. If I was able to. I would."

"Why do you work for Ivan anyway?"

"Extra money."

The two of them chatted for, four hours until Sanji fell asleep eating the last of his strawberries. Scar smiled hearing his soft breathing.

"Goodnight, Sanji." Scar said.

Then hung up the phone. He undressed out of his leather and into his pants, shirt, long coat, and scarf. He stepped out of his office and shut the door. Scar stepped out of his room and headed down the hall and left the building. Where he walked down the street and into his apartment complex before going up into his building. He unlocked his apartment and headed inside. But stopped when a light was on in the living room. He slowly drew his hand to his hip when the intruder stepped out from the kitchen.

"So. How did it go?" Nami asked, "Zoro."

Sanji opened the cafe and headed inside. The bell chimed having Sanji perk up to Zoro dressed in his cop uniform. His one working eye caught Sanji's attention and smiled softly.

"Just a second Zoro, I need to start up the coffee machine." Sanji said.

He nodded and approached the counter and watched Sanji bringing life to the machines. Zoro rested against the counter smiling softly watching Sanji. His eyes slowly following down Sanji's body and stopped to his ass.

"The usual?" Sanji asked.

Zoro snapped out of it and turned to Sanji, "Uh yeah."

He pulled out his wallet about to pay when Sanji placed a hand on his. Zoro looked up to him, slightly worried.

"You don't need to pay for this one. It's on the house." Sanji winked.

Zoro smirked, "Thanks."

Sanji went back to the machine Zoro rested back on the counter and watched Sanji.

"So I heard about you and that girl. Are you doing okay?" Zoro asked.

"I'm fine. I'm actually trying to get with someone else." Sanji said.

"Oh, who?"

"I'm meeting him tonight."

"Fancy."

Sanji chuckled, "I hope so. I've talked to him for hours and I hope to convince him to stay."

Zoro chuckled as Sanji handed him the cup of coffee and his usual bagel. He placed his hand on Sanji's hand earning the blonde's attention.

"If he could, he would in a heartbeat." Zoro said.

Sanji smiled, "Thanks."

Zoro took his leave with the coffee and bagel leaving Sanji alone with his thoughts. Sanji perked up to a white envelope sitting on the condiments table. He lifted the door to the counter before approaching it. Sanji plucked up the envelope and opened it. Inside was a small note with the business card of the hotel they were going to meet at. Sanji pulled out the note from the envelope and opened it.

'I had fun talking to you last night. When you get to the hotel I want you to go to the front desk. The person at the front desk will have a gift for you from me. Just a little, identity protection. I look forward to seeing you tonight.' - Scar

Sanji smiled holding the letter close to his chest. Before the bell chimed for a new customer. Sanji turned to the woman and smiled to her.

"Welcome!"

Once the clock chimed eight o'clock Sanji closed up his shop and headed out to the hotel. It wasn't far from his work. Actually down the block and across the street. Not too bad of a walk either. Sanji couldn't help himself so he walked as fast as he could to get there. Hell! He even bolted across the street to get there quicker. And once Sanji got inside he smiled. But then pursed his lips seeing Ivan working the front desk. He sighed approaching the front desk and leaned against the counter.

"I was told there was something for me?" Sanji asked.

"Oh yes, Zoro said he was leaving you something." Ivan said.

Sanji blinked as Ivan pulled out a small box and slid it up to him. He nodded as Ivan placed a keycard on top of the box and smiled to Sanji.

"Enjoy your stay."

He nodded before going into the elevator and took the keycard. Slowy piecing things together.

"Zoro.... is Scar?" Sanji muttered.

He sighed for not realizing it sooner. Sanji placed the card in his pocket before opening the white shoe box. Inside held a white mask covering around his eyes. Sanji pulled it on before the elevator was opened. Sanji poked his head out looking down the hall. He stepped out finding the door and stood before it. He rummaged in his pocket for the card and took a breath. Slipping the card and pulling it out earning a soft glowing green light. Sanji pushed open the door and stepped inside. He was about to turn on the light when.

"Don't." He gruffed.

Sanji pulled his hand away from the switch as he followed the wall into the room. He stopped seeing the figure sitting on the bed. He could see the moon reflecting off his leather bodysuit and boots. But that's all the little of the light could show to Sanji. But he could tell he was definitely Zoro by now. But he had to act like he still doesn't know.

"Scar. It's good to see you." Sanji said.

"Likewise. Please have a seat." He said.

Sanji sat next to Zoro and placed his hand on Zoro's before he leaned in and kissed him softly. He pulled away clutching onto Zoro's hand.

"I'm ready." Sanji said.

Zoro straddled his hips and kissed him roughly on the lips. Clothes were tossed off each other and flung across the room. Skin was pressed against skin, teeth collided and clashed with teeth. Tongue battled and pressed against each other while hands wandered over heated skin. Within the little time Zoro was mounted and riding Sanji sending him off on his first orgasm. Learning more about his new client. Sanji, was a wild animal. He managed to flip Zoro onto the bed and fuck him senseless.

This went on for three rounds.

Sanji slumped against Zoro's sweaty and muscular form. He panted softly listening to Zoro's heart begin to beat it's normal beat. Sanji clutched onto Zoro and glanced up to him. He kissed him roughly again before pulling back cupping his cheeks.

"Zoro, please stay with me." Sanji said.

"H-How did you-"

"I may have been born at night, but not last night. That's not the point. I want to be with you and-"

"Sanji, I'm just a rebound to you. You don't actually want me. You hired me to have sex with you and help you get more intimate." Zoro said, "You don't want me Sanji."

Sanji clutched onto Zoro, "Bu-But."

Zoro brushed him away getting dressed and left leaving Sanji alone to think everything over. He clutched onto the bed as tears pricked the corners of his eyes.

"What have I done?" He muttered.

He tried. Oh how he tried. Sanji tried to apologize to Zoro many times. But the man seemed to vanish from the earth. Not picking up his phone, or even coming to get coffee from Sanji. Who always seemed to have a bagel and a cup of coffee waiting for Zoro. But as the days dragged on. Zoro hadn't reared his head into the cafe. Leaving Sanji heartbroken and lonely.

Zoro had quit his job at Ivan's and went to a different coffee shop. Which wasn't as good as Sanji's cute little cafe. They always seemed to mess up his order or be out of bagels. He did this to avoid conflict in case Sanji was using him for a rebound. Zoro had a crush on his barista. That he couldn't seem to get out of his head. So. He decided to do something about it.

Zoro stepped into the cafe having Sanji perk up. He approached Sanji grabbing his collar and kissing him roughly on the lips before pulling away.

"Look. I can't get you out of my head. And it's bugging me. So. Are you serious about me wanting to be with you or not?" Zoro asked.

Sanji smiled, "Yeah."

Zoro nodded, "Good. Now if you'll excuse me I have some work to do."

"Wait Zoro." Sanji said, "You want to come over for dinner tonight?"

"I'd love to." 

I feel SO much better. I was able to add a chapter to Shine so I'll update that today also. And I started the crack ship as well. I still have a cough and a stuffy nose. But it should be over soon. Thank you all for understanding. Even if it wasn't as long as I thought I was going to be sick for.
