“Better hold on tight, Spidermonkey!”

I grin as she grabs hold of me so tight that – were I human – she would choke me. Her legs are wrapped around my waist. I relish in the feel of her body so close to mine.
 
As we climb higher, she squeals, laughing – music to my ears.
 
Her heart beats frantically when I jump, easily leaping from tree to tree.
 
Finally, at the top of a fir tree, we stop. I pull her to me – back to chest – my arms holding her safe.
 
Awestruck, she whispers, “So beautiful.” 
 
“Indeed,” I murmur with a smile.
