Hello everyone, before I start, I'd like to say that any author notes will be most likely in bold n.n This one is a one-shot of my flirty OC Francis Flynn Druitt with my fellow dear friend TheNewEclipse n.n In it are also my other two OC's, Shane Winston and Akiyume Melodia, and myself. You shall also see the children of the ship :3

"Yay the beach!!!" Dusty shouted as she ran towards the pearly white sand. Her older sister, Thistle chased her younger sister, yelling after her, "DUSTY DON'T LEAVE ME BEHIND!!!" Amusingly enough, behind them ran a short brunette named Musical, who screamed "Oi girlies, stop running so fast, you mustn't leave my eyesight!!!"

The light and dark brown haired siblings giggled at the fretful girl who tried catching up with them. They soon went to jump into the cerulean waters of the ocean, but were caught by a violet haired girl and raven haired boy who appeared from a large vortex.

"G-Gotcha," the raven haired boy almost whispered as he smiled meekly at Dusty and Thistle.

"It seems like you two were too excited to go jump into the waters with your clothes still on," noted the violet haired girl while laughing. Thistle and Dusty pouted, having been unsuccessful in getting into the ocean. "Fret not my little dears, you just have to go change. After all, we're at the beach," a male voice cooed, being directed towards the young children.

Their ears perked up and turned around to find their father Francis walking towards them while still embracing their mother Eclipse with one hand and holding some of the supplies in the other arm.

"Okay!" The two daughters chirped. "Hey Uncle Shane and Auntie Akiyume, can you put us down now?" The girls asked the mentioned pair. They nodded, and were soon placed on the ground and followed suit, thus allowing the vortex to disappear into thin air. The girls went to hug their father and mother, who returned their sweet gesture, and soon Eclipse said "Now why don't you two go with Musical and get ready in your swimsuits so you can go swim in the ocean? I'll be right there shortly, alright?"

The girls nodded quickly and soon went to grab the mentioned girl's hands as they shouted "Let's get ready quickly!" Musical giggled, and replied "Alright you two, allons-y mes petites enfants! Onward to the changing rooms!!"

Dusty and Thistle laughed at the dramatic brunette, and soon were whisked away into the changing rooms.

Now, Shane and Francis went to go set up their spot on the beach not to far from the ocean but not too close. Akiyume and Eclipse decided that while the boys did that, they'd go change into their swimsuits with Musical and the little girls.

Soon they met up with Musical, who was chatting with Dusty and Thistle, and Eclipse said to her, "Can you wait for us to change as well and keep an eye on the girls a little longer?"

Musical smiled and saluted along with Dusty and Thistle, and said"Of course!"

Akiyume went in to get changed into her new bathing suit and Eclipse removed her outer clothings to reveal her favorite swimsuit. Meeting the gaze of Akiyume, both smiled and exited the room and were greeted with the sight of Thistle and Dusty playing some sort of hand game with Musical while sitting on the warm and soft sand. Eclipse and Akiyume laughed at the sight.

Musical heard the peals of laughter and stopped the game with the girls and got up with them, saying "Alright, let's go have some fun in the sun!!!! Even though I'm probably going to get sunburned despite wearing sunblock!!"

Eclipse agreed, and remembered something. "That's right, did you little ones put on some sunscreen?" Thistle and Dusty both looked at the brunette and Thistle laughed nervously. Dusty laughed and said "No momma, we have---," Thistle tried to cover Dusty's innocent mouth, but was too late as Eclipse was about to grab them. Eclipse only managed to grab the young light brown haired girl, and the tomboy fled the scene. Eclipse handed Dusty to Musical, who was ready with the sunscreen, and went dashing towards the dark brown haired girl.

Thistle ran straight to Francis, and hugged his legs, saying "Oi Dad, please hide me, Mom wants to put sunscreen on me!!!!"

Francis stopped what he was doing and looked down at Thistle and chuckled, saying "Is that why you're currently out of breath my dear child?"

"Yes, now hurry and hide me before Mom gets here!" Thistle pleaded. Francis just grinned in amusement at the short girl and said "Alright, just hide under Uncle Shane's chair where the bag is. You can hide behind it there. Just be careful."

Thistle hugged Francis' waist and said "Thanks!!" She immediately went to hide in the said location.

Eclipse finally arrived at their spot and looked up at Francis, saying "Hey honey, have you seen Thistle? She hasn't put on her sunscreen yet and you know how she burns easily."

Francis smiled mischievously, saying "Ah yes, perhaps I have seen her."

Eclipse looked expectantly at Francis, awaiting the answer she seeks.

Francis' smile grew as he continued. "Of course I'll tell you, but here's the catch~"

Eclipse quirked an eyebrow at the flirtatious man. "And that is~?"

Francis pointed to his face saying, "You must hand me one of your sweet kisses for such information."

Eclipse rolled her eyes while smiling, and said, "Okay then, please lean down so I can do that which you requested."

Francis complied and leaned down, and closed his eyes readying himself for a kiss on the lips, and feels warm soft lips on his left cheek. His eyes open and he looks over to Eclipse, who was blushing from her own previous actions, and couldn't help but feel his heart flutter at such a wonderful sight.

He smiled, and said "Alright she went that way," while pointing towards the area where Shane was quietly reading a book under the shade of the umbrella. Eclipse thanked Francis and was about to take a step forward to go find and capture Thistle but was prevented from doing so by two arms that snaked around her waist. Francis was embracing Eclipse, who just embraced him back, and said, "Francis, love, I have to go get our child and place some sunscreen on her, will you let me go get her?"

Francis just shook his head, saying "I'm afraid not, I would like to hug you longer my dear little rose~!"

"But I have to put sunscreen on Thistle. If I don't, she's going to get a bad sunburn," Eclipse explained despite the blush growing on her face from hearing her nickname, and tried reasoning with Francis. "Alright, I shall let you go but on one condition~"

"And what might that be, love?" Eclipse quiried.

"Another kiss, but this time right here~." Francis now pointed to his lips while smirking.

Eclipse's face felt warmer by the second, and she merely said, "Lean down once more."

"With pleasure~"

The flirtatious man leaned down, and quickly Eclipse pecked his lips and was about to pull away. Quickly Francis captured her lips with his own in a sweet and passionate kiss. Eclipse brought her hands to his face and pulled him close as Francis embraced her tighter as well, not once breaking away from the kiss. Soon the two lovers had to break apart for air, and did so quite reluctantly. Francis smiled at the flushed face of his love, and whispered in her ear, "I shall now permit you to go find our daughter. She's under Shane's chair, so she shouldn't have gotten burnt if she's still hiding there~"

Still blushing, Eclipse nodded, her heart beating rapidly. She laughed softly and pecked Francis' cheek while whispering a thanks in his own ear and went over to where Shane was sitting leafing through the pages of the somewhat thick book he had currently in his hands. He looked up from his reading to find Eclipse walking around him and look underneath his chair, where she quickly caught Thistle, who was more or less squirming around trying to escape Eclipse's soft but firm grip, and went away with her. Shane eyed them with curiosity before he sighed while smiling and decided to get up and go find the rest of the group, concluding that they were all probably ready.

Going back to where Francis was, Eclipse went over to her bag where she had another bottle of sunscreen, and placed some onto the palm of her hand and rubbed it over Thistle, who flinched at the cold substance, and shivered at the weird sensation it brought. She was finally dressed in sunscreen and was ready to go into the calm, blue ocean.

Eclipse got up, and saw Musical giving a piggyback ride to Dusty and Akiyume walking alongside the brunette as they approached her. Joyful cheers were coming from the bubbly little girl, who then saw Francis and extend her hands out to him saying, "Daddy~!!"

Francis looked over and saw Dusty and went over to Musical and picked Dusty up and spun with her in the air much to the light brown haired girl's delight. Eclipse squealed at the adorable sight and was about to take her camera out of her bag to take a picture but was beaten by Musical who snapped quite the amount of photos. Eclipse looked at Musical and mouthed the words "Please send me the pictures" to the brunette who caught sight of Eclipse and smiled while giving her a thumbs up.

"It looks like we're all ready," Francis stated while carrying Dusty. Shane walked up and smiled softly saying, "Y-Yeah, it seems s-so." He soon caught sight of Akiyume and couldn't help but blush and try to avert his gaze. Thistle caught sight of that and snickered, saying "Uncle Shane looooooooooves Auntie Akiyume~! He's blushing~~~!!!" Shane tried covering his face, approached the girl and said, "P-Please d-don't s-say that out loud T-Thistle," while whispering in her ear. Thistle's devious smile grew and she was about to shout, but was soon interrupted by Shane covering her mouth. Akiyume noticed that her name was being called, and saw Shane and Thistle, and went over to them, saying "Was I being called by one of you two?"

Shane's blush worsened, and he stuttered, "I-I-I-It w-was n-n-nothing." Thistle, seeing Shane's hold on her loosen, took the chance to remove his hand from her mouth and said "Uncle Shane was blushing from seeing you Auntie Akiyume! He loves you~~~!!" It was at that moment that Shane felt like hiding in a hole from the overwhelming embarrassment he felt from the current situation. He gulped and tried hiding his face.

Akiyume paused for a moment and soon her sweet giggles could be heard as she gracefully skipped over to Shane and tried removing his hands from his face, saying "Awww Shae-Shae, there's no need to be bashful!" She soon placed a gentle kiss on his face and giggled once more, a slight blush on her face, saying "You're too sweet, and I can't help myself sometimes!"

Shane's face grew even more red if possible, and he felt like he would soon lose consciousness. Meanwhile, Thistle just scrunched up her face, saying "Eww, Uncle Shane got cooties from Auntie Akiyume!"

"I'm afraid you're incorrect my little one, for it was simply a sign of affection," Francis explained to his daughter. She still had a look of disgust etched on her face, and said, "Well it's still icky."

Musical smiled and ruffled Thistle's hair, saying "Don't worry, you'll understand that once you grow older child."

"Hey, that's my line," Akiyume said while laughing. Dusty giggled, saying "Yup, that's Auntie Akiyume's line!" Everyone giggled at Dusty's naivety.

Francis said, "Well, now we must get ready." After putting Dusty back onto the warm sand, he soon took his shirt off, causing Eclipse to blush at the sight. "Oi Mr. Flirt, you could have just gone to the changing rooms," Musical pointed out. "What does it matter, Mother Dearest, if I'm going to end up shirtless in the end. Plus I don't think my darling little rose minds~," Francis says while winking at the flushed hazel eyed girl. Her face was more and more scarlet by the minute.

Francis just chuckled and went over and placed a kiss on Eclipse's forehead, and the girl hugged the man tightly, hiding her face in his exposed chest. Francis could feel the warmth radiating off her cheeks, and just smiled and hugged her back while rocking with her gently.

Musical was holding in her squeals as she kept taking more pictures of the whole moment. Dusty smiled and clapped her hands as she too expressed her happiness next to Musical and decided to go over and hug her parents. She called to her sister, saying "Thistle, come join the hug!!" Thistle, while showing reluctance on the outside, walked towards the group hug and hugged her sister and her parents, secretly enjoying the moment. Soon everyone joined in on the group hug, and Eclipse relaxed and smiled at her loved ones.

They soon released the hug and ran to the ocean to go play there. Francis quickly picked up Eclipse along with Dusty and Thistle and ran towards the ocean and jumped in with them despite their protests. They squealed at the cold liquid making contact with their warm skin and the young ones started splashing water at each other. Musical and Akiyume quickly jumped into the water, and slightly shivered at the change in temperature but soon got accustomed to the cold feeling. Shane was reluctant with removing his hoodie and going into the water, but was given no chance to remove it as Francis sent a large amount of water to the shy boy with the help of his oldest daughter. Shane shivered and quickly threw off his hoodie and approached the water quickly. Shane smiled widely and started a water fight with Francis, and the others joined in soon. Musical and Akiyume joined Shane's side while Eclipse and Dusty swam over to Francis' side. Each side blasted some water against the other, sometimes even catching their respectful opponents off guard. Shrieks of laughter came from the children as well as the adults and, for the rest of the day, everyone enjoyed their beach day during their vacation.

What do you guys think of this first one-shot? I hope it was enjoyable n.n
