"This is fucking crazy!" Ethan's yells over the loud wind.
"I know that's why we're doing it," I yell back with a smile. He smiles back and I give him a thumbs up.
"Are you scared?" He asks.
"Nah, well maybe a little. Are you?" I reply gripping the handle of the paraglider.
"I'm terrified but ya know gotta live life on the edge," he says moving over to the edge of the cliff.
"Haha very funny, but thank you for doing this with me even if it's crazy," I reply.
"Well I'm crazy for you so," he smiles. I blush and look at the view. "But I'm glad you brought me. You know I've always wanted to fly. I tried jumping out of a tree once when I was little, but instead of flying I just broke my arm." He says laughing.
"Well hopefully this time you don't brake your arm," I say back.
"Alright remember everything I told you?" The instructor says walking in between us.
I can't believe I'm about to go paragliding. I'll probably have a heart attack and pass out but you know, I'm legit about to jump off a cliff. Holy shit.
"If I die just remember I love you," I chuckle.
"You die, I die too remember." He gives a toothy smile and tries to reach over and hold my hand but the bars are in the way. I shake my head and giggle. Then he continues, "So on the count of three."
"One," I start.
"Two."
"Three!" We scream together and run towards the edge of the cliff.
I push off letting the wings carry me and I can't help but smile. Yelling at the top of my lungs in excitement I take in the breathtaking view.
I look over at Ethan and he has the most adorable happiest smile plastered on his face. He makes me happy in so many ways he has no idea.
I steer closer to Ethan but accidentally bump into him causing me to drop a little resulting in the loudest damn scream I've ever heard come from my mouth. I can hear Ethan laugh and yell even over the rushing wind.
My chest starts to hurt but I can easily ignore it because nothing will take away how much fun I'm having right now.
"We're flying!" I smile at him.
We both laugh historically just because it's hard not to when Your flying through the air.
"I could do this is all day!" He calls out, I nod in agreement and look at the view feeling just slightly nauseous.
So I have these little moments that just kind of happen where you really just enjoy the moment. Even if it's not that big of a deal. Like one time I was just on the roof listening to music and I stood up and looked at the night sky and just put my hands in the air, and just smiled and embraced it. Nobody cares what your doing, like you could be staring at a wall at 3am all alone and nobody cares. But you just have that moment to yourself and it's literally one of the best things ever.
Since then I just have those little moments and I seriously live for them well that and Ethans laugh. But I'm having one of those moments right now. Im flying through the air and I'm free, nobody cares that I'm souring in the sky. I close my eyes and smile to myself feeling the wind hit my face.
Ethan screams from behind me causing me to open my eyes and look back at him. He dropped down further but he still has that gorgeous smile on his face.
I slowly descend down to him then say, "you remember how to land right?"
He nods as we approach the landing spot on the beach. Before you know it we land and get ourselves out of the straps.
"That was amazing," I smile brightly running over and jumping into Ethan's arms. He spins me around and just holds me.
"I will never forget this," he says kissing me.
"Lets go jump in the water, it's really hot out," he mentions already heading towards the ocean.
"Ehhhh I don't feel like getting all wet," I complain.
He comes over to me and picks me up throwing me over his shoulder.
"Put me down, ETHAN PUT ME DOWN!" I yell hitting his back and thrashing my legs.
"Nope your going in," he laughs tickling my sides making me laugh ten times harder.
We're already up to his waist in water and there's really no point in struggling cause I'm going in no matter what.
"Ethan stoppppp."
"Do you really not want to?"
"Yes I really don't."
"To bad," he laughs then drops me and I feel the cold water surround me and it actually doesn't feel to bad.
I come back up gasping for breath because I wasn't expecting to be dropped so soon.
"I hate you so much." I groan.
"I love you so much," he replies going in for a kiss but I splash him in the face.
"Thats not how it works," I say then go underwater.
I open my eyes to find Ethan looking at me through the water. I smile and so does he and I swim closer to him. I wrap my legs around him so I don't float away and passionately kiss him.
It's kind of weird kissing underwater, and I soon run out of breath. We both rise to the surface and my legs are still around his waist.
I lay my forehead on his and our noses touch. I run my hands through his hair and twirl it around my finger messing around with it.
"You make me the happiest guy ever, I hope you know that," he whispers in my ear.
I kind of ruin the moment by letting a tear escape my eye. He rubs away the tear and says, "why are you crying baby girl."
"I just love you so much."
I love you so much that I don't want to hurt you.
