Rating: PG- 13
Pairing: Zoro x Sanji
Word Count: 480-490 Approx.

I held his face in my hands, rain pouring all over us. I felt my hands tremble, numbing over his cold skin. How long has it been... Was I too late...?
Two breaths. Ten compressions.

"Breathe.. Sanji. Please....."

The whole crew was silent the thunders and drummings of rain the storm screaming out loud. The sea was raging. The absense of one person's breath was choking the whole crew into absolute silence. Flash backs of Sanji falling into the blackness of the vast ocean was slowly creeping upon me, tighting its grip to a point where I wanted to scream. 

...
I wanted him.
I was a fool

I wanted to ingore him
Seeing his temper towards men, softness for women
He was an idiot, getting in the way of my training
I wanted to ingore him
This womanizing bastard

I wanted to fight him
His irratating speach, his powerful kicks
Rivaly that attracted me closer and closer to him
I wanted to fight him
Crazy enough, I wanted to prove my strength against his

I wanted to observe him
Everyday, every minute, I examined his habits
The way he talks, cooks and walks
I wanted to observe him
To know everything about this man

I wanted to be near him
Using fights as excuses, making body contact 
I wanted to be near him
Craving his exsistance near mine

I wanted to touch him
To wrap his thin, strong legs around my hips
To feel every inch on his pale body
I wanted to touch him
Wanted to make his body mine

I wanted to see him
Under me, panting and screaming
Hear him cry my name, his breath dangerously uneven from ecstacy
I wanted to see him
His tears and smiles

I wanted to taste him
Lips fitting together like pieces of puzzles
Like we were meant to be.
I wanted to taste him
                       Not like this...

I wanted him
I was a fool
I was a fool for not telling him how I felt...

" Please....Please... Just please..."

Two breaths, ten compressions.
The burning sensation of tears started to swell in my eyes. I let myself cry, the tears will mix with the raindrops, I couldn't let my concentration rip apart. It took everything I had to count to ten, and breathe out two breaths into Sanji's mouth...

Sanji coughed. He coughed up water, his eyes bolted open gasping for air. The heavy silence weighing down on the ship vanished, the voices of the crew sounding once more.

"YOU'RE ALIVE"
"Sanji!!! You had me worried"
"How could you drown like that. Geez"

"...Zoro..."
His voice weak and calm, Sanji called my name.
"...Don't cry. It makes you look bad"

"I'm not crying IDIOT. It's the rain."

I wanted him.
I was a fool
I was a fool for not letting him know how I felt
...
I wasn't going to be a fool any longer...
