Zoro had been awoken by Luffy whispering in his ear. Startled before glancing around at where they were. His eyes immediately looking for his best friend before seeing she was in Sanji's arms.
Sanji held her in his arms as he patted her cheek lightly. Placing a small peck on her forehead with worry.
Celestia woke up with a start as she gasped for air. The light made her feel better as she kept her gaze on him. "Sanji?" She asked. Placing her hands on his cheeks. "You're okay. You're here." She let out a small breath of relief.
"I'm fine. You don't look so well. Is something wrong, Love?" He asked.
Celestia shook her head. "No. No, I'm fine. I guess I'm not used to being on a ship for that long." She lied. Giving him a small smile before hugging him. Her hands lightly holding onto his blazer.
Sanji pulled her close as he respected her answer. Knowing something was up but he didn't want to stress her out. Simply hugging her as he felt her go from tense to relaxed in an instant.
"Sanji?" She asked.
"Hm?"
"Where exactly are we?" She asked. Glancing behind him as she noticed the others. "Zoro your swords.."
"We don't know where we are yet. We think it's marines." Sanji replied.
Zoro had been more preoccupied over her that he hadn't noticed. Feeling the empty slots as he huffed. "Those bastards." He mumbled.
"Ugh." Nami spoke up. "They took my rucksack with all my navigation gear."
Luffy listened to them from his corner of where they were. His hands immediately reaching for his head. "Phew they didn't take my hat away." He sighed in relief.
Nami scoffed a bit. "Yeah, small blessings." She spoke sarcastically. Unable to believe he could compare a hat to what was taken from them.
Celestia listened to them speak as her hand instinctively went to her neck. Feeling it empty as she panicked. "They took it."
"Took what exactly?" Nami asked. "The sword you made us wait for you to get from home?"
Zoro sent Nami a stern look as he stood in front of Celestia. "Hey. We'll get back what they took from you. I promise." He spoke.
Celestia glanced up at him as she nodded. "Thank you." She lightly spoke. It felt empty without her necklace. The last thing she had from her family. Choosing to stay close to Sanji.
Sanji noticed that she kept trying to reach for the necklace she didn't have. Reaching up as he held her hands. Placing a small kiss on them.
Zoro noticed as he glanced at their hands before glancing back at her.
Celestia hadn't noticed as she focused on Sanji. She still knew that Zoro would have a special spot in her heart. Her cheeks turning red from Sanji's gesture.
"See? Already letting your thoughts move on from the necklace for now. Just focus on me." Sanji spoke. "Just me and you."
Celesita listened to his words and his actions had her forgetting her nightmare. Focusing on him as she hid a small smile. "I have to thank you for that then." She whispered. "Maybe being in this contained space is good."
Sanji chuckled. "Well, when we're not contained by whoever has caught us. I think we can find a room for ourselves. What do you say?"
"I will gladly wait until then. It means making you wait." Celestia smiled innocently before glancing at the others. "So what do we do now?" She asked.
