Chapter 8 Return to the sea

Settings
After spending some days back home I began to feel curious about the islands we had seen on our way back home so with lust to explore rekindled I prepared a ship to head back originally built it for a one person voyage but Celeste saying "someone needs to make you at all" Which honestly with how well I know myself staying at sea for years is highly likely With the two of us making our way to these unknown islands and during the voyage we came across challenges we've already dealt with previously but also one we were not prepared being two people who have an undiscussed attraction to each other because I know what I feel for Celeste and I think she feels the same so the of us being stuck on a boat together for days was difficult but Celeste ever the emotionally mature asked me a question I didn't know how to answer "Atlas what would be so wrong with being open about our feelings?" And after a pause I told her "Nothing would be wrong with that." After coming to terms with we feel we would continue on the venture with the two of us occasionally sharing a bed whenever the voyage felt slow and when we finally came across our first island it had what you would expect an abundance of trees, plants and animals no sign intelligent life no structures nothing that indicated people like ourselves ever once lived here but it's not like that was the only reason we came here we were here to see what calls this island home at all and what we discovered didn't disappoint 'Being the first to discover this place we get to name it' Celeste noted and she was right I asked her what names she had in mind "Twin peaks island." Named after the two massive mountains after leaving twin peaks we continued on our voyage we came across another island which we called giant wood island named after the massive tree in the islands dead center after a few days we discovered some of the tree were covered what was clearly paint meaning we were not the first to find this island but until we find them we still calling this island great wood island We searched the island for a while and eventually found remains of this islands first visitors and from their records we discovered that they also call this place great wood island, great minds think alike I guess, after building a burial for our fellow explorers we continued on our island hopping journey coming with names like red plains island, golden leaves island, great boar island and burning mountain island The latter being where Celeste told me she was pregnant and I was happy and scared all at once I wanted to return home till she gives birth but she told me we'll go home when there nothing left to see in this world and that's when I knew I found my wife
