   Summary

   "Stay with me tonight. Please."

   Zoro hadn't even realized Sanji's hold on his sleeve until now.

   "Okay. I will."

   And Zoro would stay. God, he would stay a hundred more nights. Millions, if the world allowed it. Right here, by the cook's side. Forever. 

   ---

   Time after time, they find their way back to each other, only to learn that love doesn't wait for perfect timing, and neither does fate.
