Steel Love (Zoro x Reader)

Warmness

That was what (Name) was able to feel when she started to wake up. Her eyes were closed, enjoying the peace and lull of the moment. The gently caress of the waves touching the soft sand, the wet and elegant sounds of the flowing water as well as the faint calls of the gulls reached her ears, relaxing her even more. Her nostrils were filled with the strong and salty scent of the ocean.

The (h/c) haired girl smiled contently as she cuddled a little bit more into the cosy and slightly hard figure that was beside her. With that little movement she was able to feel the strong arm that was wrapped around her waist. As she inhaled deeply, the marine aroma was mixed with a steel essence. The one she had grown to love.

(Name) opened her (e/c) eyes slowly, taking her time to adjust her gaze. She turned her body a little, watching some of the sun rays dodging the leaves of the trees were the hammock was tied. The sky had a beautiful blue tone or that was she saw between the leaflets. The girl closed again her eyes as she snuggled again against her lover, inhaling his smell once again. The atmosphere was so quiet that the (h/c) haired girl could hear his slow heartbeat, making her smile softly.

The (e/c) eyed girl fixed her gaze in the chest before her. It was muscular evidencing all the hard work and training the man did. As (Name) lifted slowly her gaze, her fingers traced delicate patterns on his slightly tanned skin until she caressed, unconsciously, the large scar that covered almost all his torso.

She took her time admiring his features. She looked at his three golden earrings on his left earlobe, his scar on his left eye, his short green eyes, his thin lips and specially, the comfortable and calm expression his face held when he was sleeping. (Name) moved as quietly as she could trying to have a better view of his appearance. Her (e/c) eyes softened, as she caressed gently the scar on his eye.

The girl could feel how her heart started to beat harder just thinking about the effect his dark and intense eyes had on her. As (Name) touched affectionately his cheek, she thought her heart was going to explode. She loved the swordsman with all his virtues and flaws. For (Name), Zoro was able to complete her in every possible way a person could.

(Name) couldn´t help but to kiss tenderly his eye´s scar. She then placed another sweet kiss on his nose and then, she kissed his lips lovingly. It was an innocent and gentle display of affection that reflected her love for the green haired swordsman. A soft breeze with an aquatic aroma moved her (h/l) locks at the same time she separate her lips from his. It was then when she was greeted with a dark eye watching her half asleep.

“Hey” The (e/c) eyed girl whispered trying to not break the calm atmosphere that surrounded them “Good morning, sleepy head” She smiled at him.

“What time is it?” Zoro yawned, stretching his body. The swordsman would never admit that being woken up with her kisses was the best thing he could ask for (Name) pouted a bit as his arm left her side.

“I don´t know. Was your nap good?” (Name) murmured. She just loved speaking in a low tone with him. It was as if they were sharing secrets that no one would know.

“Yeah, but what kind of kiss was that?” The man asked smirking and enveloping his girlfriend in his arms again, making her blush “Should I show you how to kiss properly?” Zoro turned slowly their bodies, being him on top of (Name), who was blushing fiercely as she bit her lower lip.

“Teach me” The (e/c) eyed girl mumbled on his lips with all her courage. Her heart was beating so hard, she thought it was going to go out of her ribs.

She felt a knot in her stomach as Zoro tilted his head, approaching her slowly. The moment she closed her eyes, (Name) felt his thin and soft lips on hers. She got lost in those tasty lips. Her nose was filled with his characteristic steel scent. She could hear her own heartbeat over the relaxing clatter of the waves meeting the beach.

Zoro kissed her with pure love and gentleness. He caressed her cheekbones with one of his calloused hands as his other took tenderly her waist. It was a wonder how the same rough hands that had an incredible strength could hold her in such a delicate way. Maybe it was the fear of injuring her or maybe his undying love for (Name).

(Name) couldn´t help but tremble when his moistened tongue licked her lower lip. She stroked softly his green hair as she let him explore her mouth. It wasn´t forceful nor aggressive. He took his time exploring every inch of her wet cavern, memorising every detail of it at the same time as his ears enjoyed the weak moans that escaped from the (h/c) haired girl.

They parted slowly, after losing track of the time they have spent in that intimate and caring kiss. (Name) opened slowly her eyes. Zoro´s gaze was very intense, making her blush once more

“I-I think I´ve learnt my lesson” The (e/c) eyed girl murmured shyly

“Good” he commented with a smirk. He moved his head to contemplate the seashore “I´m going to train” he said, breaking the romantic air that surrounded both of them.

“Eh? Why” (Name) asked pouting. She watched him get up from the hammock but made no attempt to stop him “You just woke up. Can´t you stay a little bit longer?” She whined. Zoro turned to his side.

“We both know that I don´t wake up with soft kisses (Name)” His statement made her confused “You look very cute sleeping, you know?” he added with a smirk before turning again, his back facing his lover.

The girl´s cheeks were painted of a crimson colour once she understood his remark. As she looked his strong demeanour when he started to walk, she felt how her emotions began to bubble, wanting to be showed once again

“Zoro” she whispered quietly. The swordsman stopped at hearing his name being called with absolute devotion “I love you” (Name) murmured tenderly, eyeing him softly.

Zoro turned and approached her slowly. He bent one knee to be at the same level as his girlfriend. His face remained stoic but his eyes… his eyes reflected pure adoration and love. His lips brushed hers in a feathery touch before giving her a sweet kiss, as he stroked her soft locks.

(Name) knew that Zoro was a man of little words. Especially in those kind of situations but it was okay for her. Because Zoro never failed to show his feelings with small gestures. Because as (Name) rejoiced that tender kiss, she knew…
