The next day, Leafy woke up and saw Firey still asleep. He was snoring loud and was drooling; the drool sizzled as it made contact with the fire body.

Leafy could not help but giggle as she looked over Firey and how hilarious he looked while sleeping.

Firey was sleeping with his legs in the air being supported by some pillows, his hands were flailing about and the drool was the icing on the cake. The sheet was a terrible, wrinkled mess. And Leafy was so amused.

"Oh, I wish I had a camera, right now.", she said to herself.

Suddenly, Firey woke up with a start, and a hilariously loud snore-fest as he got up.

"Morning!", Leafy announced with an amused smile.

"Oh!! Uh, hey, Leafy! Haha! Uh, yeah, good morning.", Firey said, embarrassed at having been caught but still finding it hilarious as well.

"Let's eat, I am hungry.", Firey said as his stomach began to growl. Leafy nodded.

*****************

During breakfast, Leafy watched as Firey devoured his breakfast and wolfed it down with no table manners in mind.

Firey blushed as he realized he was being rude. "Oh, sorry, Leafy, I, uh..."

Leafy interrupted. "Never mind, Firey, I am just glad you are enjoying your food. I secretly eat food in a messy way, too, when I am alone."

Firey smiled and nodded. Then, he continued eating.

After finishing, Firey and Leafy were discussing on what to do for the day.

"What do you want to do today, Leafy? We got enough food stored away for a few days and the hut is in good shape. Do you want to play some board games? Because I don't know what else to do.", Firey inquired.

Leafy shrugged. "Beats me, I am not sure what to do."

The duo sat on the beach in silence for a little while. That was, until Firey spoke up.

"Do you want to just explore the island and wander about? We can just take a day and go where the day takes us.", Firey suggested.

Leafy beamed at the idea. "Yeah, let's do it!", she said, while pumping her fist in the air.

*****************

Later, Leafy and Firey began their adventure.

They wandered through the mini-jungle of the island. It was a beautiful sight. The sun's rays hit the trees and the morning dew dripped off the leaves, sparkling in the daylight. Bugs crawled around the trees and some seagulls nested near the rocks at the small volcano mountain. The seagulls flew overhead and let out some squawks.

"Haha, squawk squawk!!!! I am a seagull, too!", Leafy said, playfully. Firey chuckled. "Yeah, and look at me, I am a little bug crawling on the trees.", Firey got on his hands and knees and crawled like a bug on the ground.

Leafy couldn't help but laugh. "That's really good.", she said.

Later, Firey and Leafy came across the volcano and looked up in awe.

"Whoa!", they both said in unison.

And "Whoa!", indeed!

The volcano was not as big as other volcanoes in the world are, but it was still quite a sight.

Firey looked at Leafy and gave a sly, knowing smile. "Wanna climb it?", he asked. "You just read my mind!", Leafy said as she smiled back.

******************

Leafy and Firey climbed the volcano. Using wide enough ledges, they carefully climbed their way to the top. The rocks were jagged and the soil was rich. Using their strength and helping each other, they managed to pull through.

Once at the top, Leafy and Firey saw their entire Dream Island from up above.

It was a beautiful sight to behold.

"Wow, this is amazing.", Firey breathed out in wonder.

Leafy agreed. "This is the most incredible thing I have ever seen. I am so glad I get to see it with you, Firey. This is truly amazing. Thank you"

Firey smiled and patted Leafy's back. "You're welcome."

Then, the duo climbed back down. After getting down safely, Firey and Leafy went down another path into the jungle.

There were berry bushes and more bananas down that particular path, as well as coconuts scattered all over the ground.

"We should take some of these back with us, Firey, the more supply of food we have, the better.", she said. Firey nodded in agreement. "Yes, you are right, Leafy, plus we never really come down this way, anyway.", he said in reply.

Using a palm tree leaf, Leafy and Firey gathered as many berries, coconuts, and bananas as they could before dragging it back towards the direction of home. Along the way, The duo saw a pack of crabs scuttling across the sand beach before them.

They stopped to watch the show.

"Aww, how adorable; they are so cute!", Leafy exclaimed. Firey nodded. "Yeah, I just wish I could hug them without, you know, getting pinched by those claws.", said Firey as he winced in reminder.

Leafy agreed. "Yeah, you got a point there, Fire-man, but, at least, we know to keep our distance and not hold them." Firey pointed for emphasis as he nodded in agreement.

Soon, the crabs were gone and the duo were on their way again.

The hut was ahead. Firey ran up to the door and held it open for Leafy as she carried the palm tree leaf full of food up the stairs and through the doorway.

"Thank you, Firey.", "You're welcome, Leafy."

As soon as Leafy and Firey had put away the food, they stopped and rested on the couch I the main room.

"That was an excellent adventure, Firey, great idea.", said Leafy, smiling. Firey smiled back. "Oh, no need to thank me, I am just glad we could have some fun and do things differently to keep things from getting boring.", Firey replied. Leafy nodded.

"Now, who wants lunch?", Leafy announced as she got up to get food to cook. "Oh, me, me, me!!!!!", Firey exclaimed in excitement. Leafy giggled as she got ready to go out and cook food over the fire pit.

Firey followed suit. He was happy he could have fun with Leafy and he cherished the fun time he had with her.

Now, it was time to eat!
