I can't help but smile as my arms wrap around Ethan's torso from the back as I am seated behind him. I grab around him and his life jacket to back sure I am secure.

"You ready?" He asks looking over his shoulder at me. "Always. Just don't kill me." I tease as he rolls his eyes playfully. Seconds later, Ethan is darting the Jet Skii across the beautiful ocean water. We would hit waves making us go in the air and land roughly on the water but it was extremely fun.

"Hold on!" He shouts over the wind before turning the jet skii being very close to flipping us. I squeal as he does a donut before we continue on. We come to a stop and Ethan switches me spots. I shake my hands before pressing the button to get up to speed.

Before we know it, we are going about 35mph and riding through the ways. Ethan's fingers rub against my skin making my stomach tingle and I know he's doing it on purpose.

"You're doing great babe." He shouts at me. I give him a thumbs up as I do a little turn but not as crazy as he did. I'm not that ballsy although I wish I was.

As the sun starts to set, we take the jet skii back to the rental place. Today's been crazy, Ethan got us a spa day and we did some yoga earlier today. After we went to lunch and took a nap. We decided to go for a late ride on the water which leads us to now going back to the villa.

When we walk in, I immediately feel like sleeping as my body feels like jello."Baby, change into some comfy clothes and meet me outside." Ethan tells me as he kisses my forehead. I nod my head, watching him change before doing the same.

I put on one of Ethan's sweatshirts and a pair of soft shorts. I slip on a pair of socks and walk outside. Ethan pats the outside chair and I crawl on it next to him, curling myself up to him. "Can you believe this is real?" He whispers.

"I can't. But it is. It's beautiful here." I sigh as the sun is close to being completely set. All that we can hear is the water moving beneath us and the wind. "I meant us. Being married. Like, my crazy nineteen year old self knew you were different and something special and that's why I took you. It's just crazy that here I am, actually married to you and soon to be starting a family with you. It's just crazy." He laughs and smiles before turning to look at me. I place a hand on his cheek and lean up to press my lips against his.

"It is crazy. I remember all my life all I have ever wanted is to find someone who loves me as much as I love them. Luckily, I did just that. Little did I know, that I would have met him at seventeen and been in love with him since."

He intertwines his hand with mine, rubbing his thumb in a pattern along my skin. "You'll never know just how grateful I am to have you. I can't wait to see what the future holds for us."

"I can't either. Can you imagine our children? Crazy like me and down to earth like you. Hopefully with your beautiful hazel eyes though." I laugh at this and turn towards him.

"As long as they are with you, I know they will be the most perfect children." He smiles and nods his head in agreement.

The past week, our honeymoon, has been absolutely unbelievable. I am just ready to be home in my own bed and I also am really missing the boys and Mali.

I went from a ten at the beginning of the week at my wedding to a -365 now that my hair is in a bun, I'm in a giant hoodie, and a pair of jean shorts on. Ethan says I look beautiful but isn't he obligated to say that?

I can't stop yawning as we wait to board his jet."We are about to board." Ethan sighs as he looks down at his phone. I nod my head and wrap my arms around his body and practically burying my face into his chest. I was definitely sleepy and in a cuddle mood.

"When we get home what time will it be?" I ask, yawning.

"Almost midnight."

"Perfect. When we get home can we cuddle?"

He laughs at this and cups my face.
"Why wouldn't we?" He chuckles before placing the softest kiss on my lips before pulling away to grab our things. I try to grab my own luggage but he wouldn't let me. Chivalry is not dead, kids.

It was almost as soon as I sat down that I fell asleep. Next thing I know we are switching to a different plane before another. Currently, we are landing on the runway in LA which means we are only minutes from being home.

Ethan's hand immediately wraps around mine as we exit the plane. He calls Jason to see if he is here to pick us up. I lean against the wall and wrap my arms around my chest and close my eyes. I can't even begin to explain how tired I am but it's probably because all we have done this week is been on the go and constantly adventuring Bora Bora.

"Baby, don't fall asleep." Ethan's voice wakes me up. I let out a laugh myself before Ethan says that Jason is here.

Almost immediately we are both attacked by Jason in a giant hug. He lets go to hug just Ethan before just hugging me. "Please don't ever take Ethan away from me that long." He jokes.

I got in the back and lean my head against the door."You guys have fun?" Jason asks. I nod my head not really sure if he can see me due to it being dark.

"Any baby making?" I almost choke on my saliva at this question as Ethan yells at Jason to shut up. I giggle from my seat as Ethan laughs at his joke. "I just want to be an Uncle already geez." He jokes which makes Ethan slap his arm.

"He's driving E, don't distract him." I say, leaning up to bring Grayson's arm to his side. "You just became a dad. Chill out." Ethan laughs.

Half an hour later we are pulling into Ethan's driveway. Jason helps Ethan and I carry our luggage to our house.
I just slip my pants off before sliding into the bed. Ethan strips down to his underwear before crawling under the covers and pulling me close to him.

"I love you." He hums."I love you too." I whisper. "See you in the morning." We say at the same time before I feel my eyes grow heavy.
