Summary
Sanji couldn’t remember the last time he’d been hugged or if he ever had.
The very idea felt foreign, like a language his body had never learned.

Summary
Sanji nods weakly, his gaze now fixed on his shoes, concealing his profound disappointment. "I can't afford distractions, Curls," he murmurs, he took a deep breath then looked at Sanji. “ I'm sorry, I can't return your feelings.” Sanji looked up to the Alpha who's staring at him, the expression on his face had a bit of worry. Despite the tears welling in the corners of his eyes, Sanji manages a small, tender smile. “Good luck with your dreams. Don't catch cold Marimo”
He turned his back to Zoro and started walking away. “I guess it's just gonna be just you and me now” Tears started streaming ,his hand nursing his abdomen lovingly.
Or
Sanji, a beta, gets pregnant with Zoro's child and hids it from him. Will he be able to raise a child on his own and have a happy ever after?

Summary
He feels too awkward here, in this setting, especially not doing anything—
“You know what you can do for us, Sanji?”
Nami asks.
”Anything.”
He replies without a second thought.
”Ease up and let us handle this, okay?”
Ah.
He might not be able to hold true to his word, here.
||
Or, the crew works on making a change here and there. For some, it’s easier to handle than others.

#7 Bed too small for rivalry | Please sleepwalk often 💗 by Plumilla
Fandoms: One Piece (Anime & Manga)
02 Oct 2025
Tags
Summary
“I sleep better too when you're with me. Please sleepwalk often. I miss you there,” Zoro confesses, the bare honesty raw in his voice.
“You sleep like a baby! What do you need me for?!”
“That's what you think. But sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and can't fall asleep again. Because you’re not with me. Usually it bothers me so much when I see you in your bunk. Alone and… too far away.”Series

Summary
“You seem distracted,” Zoro states, unprompted.
“Fuck off. Why do you care,” Sanji says, realising too late that it’s a dangerous thing to ask. Zoro feels too close for comfort. Franky hands him a new piece of paper.
“It’s distracting me,” Zoro mumbles, closer to his ear than Sanji likes. Not close enough.

Summary
“Anyway,” Zoro continued amid Sanji’s silence, “I’m not going to die.”
Sanji made a scoffing sound. “You can’t just decide that, asshole,” he said, tying off the thread. He trailed his fingertips over the jagged seam, checking for any imperfections. “You can’t cheat death.”
“We’ll see.”
To Sanji, Zoro is an enigma. An infuriating one, but one he is drawn to nonetheless. For as much self-assurance Zoro appears to have, Sanji has about as much self-doubt. If he can just understand what goes on inside that mossy head of his, maybe he can figure a few things out about himself as well.
Discovering that there might be something other than rivalry brewing between them, is something Sanji isn't quite prepared for.
(Rated M for explicit language, canon-typical violence and sexual content for later chapters).

Summary
“I heard you screaming,” Zoro’s calm voice gets closer as Sanji feels the swordsman’s head lowering towards his, the steady breath warming up his temple.
"Had a nightmare. I'm afraid to fall asleep again," he sighs. And yet, contrary to his words, his eyes close on their own as a wave of soothing feeling washes over him.
“Come to sleep with me then,” Zoro suggests simply.Series

Summary
Sanji grew up believing touch only brought pain — until Zeff, and later the Straw Hats, taught him it could also mean warmth, safety, and love.
But when a cruel curse steals that from him, every touch becomes agony once again — even from the wind, from clothes, from himself.
Now, as the pain worsens, Sanji must face the one thing he fears most
Being untouchable and that he can’t get to feel the warmth of another person

Tags
Summary
Coming to his own bunk, Sanji finds out a surprise is waiting for him there, right under his carefully folded blanket near his pillow.
A letter? From…?
He reaches for it, his heart hammering against his ribs.
It looks more like just a note, a single sheet of kind of crinkled paper, folded in half. There’s something written on it and when Sanji reads the name, it answers one of his many questions.
Curly brows.~ Including ART ~

Summary
Sanji was often anxious. Or nervous. Or tired or angry.
Zoro was often watching.
Sanji needed soothing.
Zoro couldn’t stop looking, and he couldn’t avoid wanting.
He would watch the way droplets of sweat went down the cook's neck, the way light would bounce on and off his golden hair...
So... His hand moved on its own: he reached out and touched him. -

Summary
“Can I?” Sanji asked, knowing the answer, but needing to hear it anyway.
Zoro swallowed hard before giving a nod.
In a swift motion Sanji pulled the pants down to free the already throbbing dick.
“Oh,” Sanji breathed, gazing at it through half-lidded eyes.

Summary
The usual fighting between Zoro and the cook takes a cold turn when Sanji is hit by a Devil Fruit that causes him to become perpetually freezing. . . unless Zoro touches him. But Zoro isn’t convinced that he’s the only cure to the cook’s predicament, especially under the weight of their new forced proximity, the growing trust and attraction between them, and the crew’s constant teasing.

Summary
“Oi, cook…” Zoro wheezes and Sanji’s chest tightens. He’s never heard the swordsman sound so weak.
Exhausted? Yes, sure, and not only once after a fight. But not this fucking weak…
It’s just a stupid fever, it’ll pass soon, Sanji assures himself again as he needlessly adjusts the slightly cold compress on Zoro’s forehead.~ Including ART ~

Summary
“What is this, twenty fucking questions?”
“Don’t be a dick.” There’s no inflection to Zoro’s tone.
Sanji taps ash into the sea. “Sorry.”
His eyes flick down to Zoro’s hands. The swordsman is still holding his lighter, large thumb absently running over the grooves on the sparkwheel. He turns it around in his fingers. Sanji feels cold.
Previously titled “If You’ll Let Me”

Summary
“We can’t have our cook in anything less than peak condition, can we?” You mumble, still thumbing his soft skin.
Sanji lets out something halfway between a gasp of pleasure and a laugh of disbelief, hands clenching still tighter.
“We need you healthy,” your hands move down his back, resting just under his shoulder blades. “I need your cooking.”
Somehow, that’s what breaks him. He arches forward with a groan, shoulders shaking.
Sanji has been working hard in the kitchen. You decide his stiff shoulders need a bit of attention. -
