It was the next night. Me, Ethan, Grayson and Lucy had met at the beach to go night snorkelling. We agreed if we all held hands it would be less scary.

We put on the goggles and snorkels and went into the cold sea water.

It was amazing. I felt free. I could see another world. There were fish everywhere of all colours and sizes. There were starfish and octopus. It was amazing. I had never seen this before and amazed.

Then of course my snorkel had to fill with sea water and I choked.

We swam around for about ten minutes before deciding we'd rather not get eaten by a shark and got out.

The next day was skydiving.

"I don't want to do this you guys." Grayson said looking uncomfortable in the back.

"Come on, Grayson, you can't live life with fears. You'll be a savage afterwards." Ethan replied

"Yeah I do need to be a savage." Grayson said.

We laughed.

It was Me, Ethan, Grayson, Lucy and Cameron. We were all going skydiving for the first time. Me and Grayson  were terrified of heights. At the party, Grayson had asked Lucy out and she said yes, so she's hanging out with us alot now. And I wasn't complaining.

"You can do this guys." Cameron said smiling.

We arrived. Put on blue overalls and got into the plane.

Grayson looked like he was close to crying. Ethan comforted him and he looked a little better.

We flew up in the plane. We were strapped to the instructors and told we had five minutes until we would jump out.

"I'm so excited!" Ethan said.

Grayson looked like he was about to be sick. I wasn't happy and Lucy and Cameron were grinning.

Ethan went first.

"Bye guys!" He shouted as he went out.

Then it actually hit me. I'm jumping out of this plane. I began to panic a little bit.

"You can do this Lauren." Lucy said.

Lucy and Cameron went next looking completely fearless.

Then Grayson went.

"I don't want to do it." He said.

"We can fly you down if you want."

"GRAYSON YOUR DOING IT. MAN UP." I shouted.

"Fine."

Grayson went.

I felt so proud of him.

Then it was my turn.

We fell out of the plane.

It was the most amazing feeling I have ever experienced in my life. I was crying with joy.

I felt so free with the wind in my hair and on my face.

The world was so big and everything was so tiny.

I saw Ethan, Cameron, Lucy and Grayson at the bottom cheering for me.

My friends and boyfriend.

I grinned. I was happy.

When we landed I got jumped on in a big hug by Grayson.

"WE DID IT LAUREN!" He shouted.

"I told you you could do it." Ethan said hugging us both.

"Yeah and now we're going to swim with Sharks." Grayson said smirking.

Ethan's face snapped to what Grayson's did when we got on the plane. We all laughed even though I was about to face my biggest fear.

We arrived. We got in wetsuits and got set up with the gear. We went underwater and Ethan grabbed into me tightly.

We went into the shark waters at the back. Ethan's grip on my hand suddenly got extremely tight. I laughed even though I was terrified myself.

A huge shark swam past us and we both screamed.

Then we burst out laughing.

We stayed in the water with the sharks for a good half an hour before deciding enough was enough.

"WE DID IT!" Ethan shouted as soon as he had the gear off.

He hugged me tight.

Today had been the best and scariest days of my life so far.
