A/N: Despite the fact that my claim is ZoroxSanji, I think that most of my entries will be Nakamashippy too.
Some called it an agreement between gentlemen, other called it the Bro Code and some called it The Iron Clad Commandments of Men. Zoro and Sanji didn't have a certain name for them, but the unspoken rules were there and you did not break them.
You let each other have private time in the bathroom late nights and you kept quite about certain things despite how tempting it felt to annoy the shit out of the other one. And you did not talk about emotions or relationships, especially not the one between the Strawhat's first mate and cook.
Insults spat in the heat of the battle was as far as they were accepted to go by the invisible rules. Never could Sanji admit that Zoro wasn't really the asshole that the blond claimed him to be each and every day. Never could Zoro say that Sanji was the best cook he'd ever met and his food tasted like a slice of heaven.
Instead, they sparred and didn't hesitate a second to yell cursing in the others face. Like a walk on flaming coal, they continued to follow their rules as days went by. Threats, insults and cursing got mixed together, and almost each day, they repeated the same line, both with the same grin plastered on their faces.
”I hate you”, they lied.
