Morgana's Point of View

We arrived in Fiji and dropped everything off at the hotel. Today was going to be our day off, then tomorrow we'll be busy doing activities, then the day after, we'll leave. Once we dropped everything off, we decided to go to the beach and go swimming for a little while.

When we got to the beach, there were so many people that we could barely walk. So we went exploring instead. We ran through forests, and through the city, until eventually we came across a small beach. Just like the one Marcus proposed to me at. I stopped running and Marcus caught up to me. I took in the view, it was beautiful. Marcus stood next to me and grabbed my hand. I looked up at him, then back out at the water. It was beautiful.

I began sprinting towards the water. At first marcus was confused, until he realized what I was doing and joined in. I ran into the water, which was kind of cold but refreshing, then I splashed marcus as he was on his way in. He gasped then smirked at me, I swam away as fast as I could, but Marcus is a stronger swimmer than I am so he caught up to me and splashed me back. I splashed him again, and this went on for a few minutes until we were both laughing so hard we couldn't splash each other because we felt weak. Marcus began heading in so I hopped on his back and he brought me into shore. When we were out, we laid on the sand next to each other. It was nice, just the two of us laying there in silence.

We must have been there for a while, but it felt like minutes. We admired the looks of the sky, the warmth of the sand, and the crashing waves of the ocean. We just laid in eachothers arms for what seemed like hours. I looked up at Marcus and smiled.

He smiled back like he had a plan and said, "Wanna go snorkeling?"

"Uh, yeah!" I'd never been snorkeling but I've always wanted to.

Marcus pulled out two sets of snorkeling gear. We put them on then ran into the ocean, well at least we tried, the flippers made it really hard. Once we got to the water, we went out. Once we were far away, I looked into the water. It was amazing, there were fish everywhere, and we were straight over top of a huge coral reef. We swam around out there until the sun began to set. Our plane didn't arrive here until late. We went back into shore, took off our gear and went back to the hotel room.

**The next day**

I woke up really early, surprisingly. I got changed, and made a cup of coffee then sat on the balcony. It was a beautiful day today, and Marcus said he has something planned for today, he planned it last minute. I love him so much, he didn't have to do all of this for me, but he insisted. I finished my cup of coffee then went back into the room. I sat down on the bed and went on my phone, I felt Marcus moving around then he wrapped his arms around me.

"Good morning," he kissed my cheek then I frowned, "What?"

"You missed," I said, Marcus seemed puzzled until I pulled him onto my lips. I felt his smile form, and I smiled too. We pulled away and looked into eachothers eyes.

"I love you," Marcus told me.

"I love you more."

"I love you most," He smiled, "Are you excited for today? I have something I think you'll really enjoy."

"Yeah! What time is it at?"

"It's in about an hour."

"You better get ready then!" I said. Marcus nodded and got up and ready.

We went on a walk for a while, then it was time to go. We walked back to the hotel and got picked up by the bus. We got on the bus, and we were off.

**1 hour later**

The bus ride was really long, but we finally made it! I checked my surroundings, and we were on top of a cliff. There were a bunch of people here with us. What could this place be? I kept searching until I found something that explained where I was. I saw a zipline cord and a bunch of harnesses. I shrieked in excitement, but Marcus just looked at me and laughed to himself.

"A little excited, are we?" He asked me.

"Yeah! This is the best trip ever! Thank you!!" I hugged him.

"Anything for you," He grinned.

The instructor showed us how to put our harnesses on, then he checked all of the harnesses. Once we were set to go, we ran. Marcus and I were the first ones in line, so we went first. The place we came to lets two people go at a time, and you guessed it, Marcus and I went together. We got strapped in, and it was time to jump off the cliff. I was nervous, and I think Marcus could tell because he grabbed my hand in reassurance. We jumped together, and we were flying, free. I looked below me, and there was trees, oceans, cliffs and so much more, it was breathtaking. Marcus and I were still holding hands, enjoying the view together.

I felt the wind in my face, and I looked at Marcus. As I did, my hair blew in my face and I started laughing, he laughed too. I love his laugh, it never fails to cheer me up. Although I'm not sad, I'm scared. I don't know when the end of my life could be, but I can't get stressed so he distracts me. This is the best trip I could ever imagine, with the best fiancé I could ever dream of.

The zip line lasted about 10 minutes, and when we were done, we got on the bus and waited for everyone else to get back on the bus before we could leave. Eventually everyone else got back to the bus, and we were on our way back. Marcus and I were flying out today and to our next destination. Marcus told me that we have 2 more places to go to.

**1 hour later**

Marcus and I just got back to the hotel and now we're packing up our stuff. Our flight leaves in 3 hours but it's a 1.5 hour drive there, then we have to get through security and that stuff, so we're leaving in about 10 minutes, and those 10 minutes will be spent packing and bringing our bags to the car.

**3 hours later**

^Flight 202 to Hawaii now boarding^

The announcement went, and Marcus and I got on the plane. I was so excited to go to Hawaii. Marcus told me when we got to the airport, and I've always wanted to go to Hawaii. I wonder what adventures we will uncover there.
