Darling's POV

Today is the 4th to last day of out honeymoon and Chase told me that he had some kind of surprise for me today. He had the driver take us to the middle of the jungle and drop us off at a small hut. Quickly pulling me out of the car, he took me inside where a man and a women were waiting with suspenders, helmets and tons of other gear. They strapped us both into harnesses and lead us down a narrow path.

"Do you know what we're going to do?" Chase questioned when we reached a staircase.

I looked up at the stairs and saw lines of some sort coming out from one tree to another. "Please, don't tell me you taking me ziplineing!?" I exclaimed. 'You know how much I hate heights!"

"You'll be okay, these are professionals. They do this with people everyday. Plus, I'll be right behind you if you need anything." He said as we began our climb.

Once we were at the top, they hooked us in to ropes that where tested around the tree. The women grabbed my hand and began giving me instructions. When she finished she unhooked me and hooked me onto the rope.

I looked back at Chase and he gave me a giant smile before the lady counted me down. I could feel all the fear rushing to my head as the numbers got lower. 5...4...3...2... And then finally she gave me a big push down the track.

I kept my eyes closed until I felt a rush of cold air pass through my body. It's beautiful! I thought doubting what my eyes were seeing. I could see the ocean in the far distance and the beautiful treetops. I looked below me and saw tons of birds, and a river flowing. "Wow..." I whispered.

I could see everything from up that high, I had completely forgotten about my fear in that moment. I saw the end of the track and a man standing there waiting for my arrival. Slowly I can to a stop and he hooked me back to the tree. Not even a Minute later Chase came speeding down the track, smiling just like on our wedding day. He got unhooked and I punched his arm. "Ow... What was that for? He questioned.

"That's for making me do this. And this." I leaned up to kiss his cheek, instead pecking his lips. "Is for bringing me here."

"So, I take that as you liked it?"

"I loved it. Maybe even more than I love you." I said as the man hooked me onto the rope and I took off.

"Hey!" I heard him shout as I laughed, looking around me.

We went from line to line, zipping around the rainforest, laughing and having the time of our lives. We reached the last one and they hooked me and Chase onto the line at the same time. He was behind me and his arms were around my waist, holding me tight to his chest.

They sent us off and Chase kissed the back of my neck. "Thanks for making my life great again." He whispered when I looked about at him

"I didn't just make it great, I'll make it an adventure." I said back. He kissed me and then pointed at the dove flying next to us. It felt like an eternity on that line, when we finally reached the end, I didn't wanna leave.

We thanked the people and retrieved our bags from the lockers. Once we'd made it back to the hotel, Chase handed me a present he had waiting for me. "How long have you had this?" I questioned as ne lead me to the couch and we sat down.

"A while. Your brothers gave me this idea and they helped me pick it out before we left for our honeymoon." Chase explained.

"Am I allowed to open it?" I questioned looking down at his hand which was conveniently placed on top of the box

"Oh, yeah. Of course, please do." He moved his hand and I took the silver ribbon off the box. I lifted the lid and pulled out an envelope. I looked at him and he just smiled.
