Luffy is tapping his feet, his leg bouncing, unable to contain the buzzing under his rubbery skin. It's hot, too hot, and none of Sanji's chilly treats are doing much to ease the heat. Luffy licks his teeth, the muscle doesn't glide with ease over the porcelain bone, instead it sticks. He sticks it out in disgust and writhes on the deck of the Sunny uttering loud complaints.
No one is nearby to hear him, he's on watch, and everyone is busied with their own attempts to stay cool and out from under the blistering sun. The only exception is Zoro. Occasionally their eyes, or in Zoro's case, eye, meet. It's something of Zoro's routine; any time any of the crew takes watch he checks on them regardless of the time or day or if he had watch or not.
But today, he sits across from Luffy, leaned up against the mast his white yukata hanging limply from his waist, the dark grey obi hanging on for dear life.
His upper torso and legs are exposed, well muscled and defined from discipline, scar-etchings telling a story. Luffy beams, it's a smile reserved for his most loyal companion and first mate. Zoro lends his discipline to Luffy, his strength, and comfort as Eucalyptus teases Luffy's nose followed by sweet Rose and Almond Blossoms. He's cooled and calmed, wrapped in Bitter Lemon and Muguet. And then the Sandalwood makes him a puddle on the floor.
He rubs his thighs together an ache and pulse echoing from deep within, and a flood of wet slick dampens his shorts. His toes curl and his legs press together impossibly harder, hips rocking with every gentle lap of fragrance prickling his senses.
The heat is a little more bearable, a little more pleasurable, as his skin dampens and glides against itself as soft as silk. Zoro is silent and still and a well chiseled marble statue, not a single movement to aid or touch. Zoro knows Luffy doesnt need saving, he isn't a damsel in distress. But, Zoro knows his Captain best, and will always lend him a helping hand.
Luffy pants and moans his skin is flushed, biting his lips and jutting his hips. More of Zoro's scent pools and licks at Luffy's skin and Luffy is thrashing desperately fisting his vest into his mouth, on all fours flipped onto his belly, arching his back and pressing his hips harshly into the deck.
There isn't an epic cry, or exclaim of relief, just earthy musk, and sweet citrus, and when Luffy crawls into Zoro's lap, tucking his limbs neatly against the other man, nuzzling under his jaw, purring with satisfaction, and the sticky aroma of warm amber floods around them.
