"Girls!" Steven called for the seventh time. "We're gonna leave to the beach without you!"

Adam glanced back at Hazel applying liberal amounts of sunscreen on him. "H, it's not drying anymore. It's oily. I hate it."

"You'll hate it a lot more if you don't put it on and come back home a little tomato," Hazel countered with a kiss to his hair. "Your trunks are so sexy. I think this is the first time I've seen you wear grey and black and now I just wanna spread your legs and really just—,"

Adam cleared his throat loudly with a grin and crossed his arms. "No spoilers to what you're gonna go to me later as compensation. Jacob, can you see if they're getting into the glitter spray I hid from Anna?"

Jacob walked out of the bathroom shirtless and groaned. "Jasmin bit me today. I'm scared. You do it."

Steven gave him a full once over and then three more. "It should be illegal to be sexy and have freckles. But I'm not doing it either. I'm still afraid because of The Amazon..."

Just then they raced out of Anna's house and lined up in front of them single file with their hands behind their backs.

"Oh my stars," Steven whispered, ceasing packing the picnic basket to place both hands over his heart. "This is..."

"Brilliant," Jacob finished. "Bloody hell, I just felt my heart flutter."

"You guys look so cute," Hazel breathed. He abandoned the sunscreen to stand in front of them and squeal, "YOU GUYS LOOK SO CUTE!"

Anna turned, bouncing up and down in place excitedly. "Daddy, it has wings! Like a honeybee!" The sweet girl had started to love honeybees when she'd realized yellow was Hazels favorite color and black was Adam's. Now she begged for every honeybee related item on the planet but this was her own doing.

He groaned and looked back at the others. "Earth to Daddies!"

They sprung to action save for Adam and Steven scooped up Connie to hold over his head. "My sweet Connie! You look like a strawberry! I love your two piece!" He smothered her giggles with kisses and pure adoration.

Her two piece hugged up her stomach and cut off just at her belly button and her bikini top pressed her breasts together like kisses. The deep red and little golden seeds sprinkled over them both were only made better by the frilly green ruffles poking out over her thighs and chest. "Thank you, Daddy! It's so comfy!"

He smiled from ear to ear and hugged her to his chest to sway with her. "Ugh, you just made my day so much better."

Jacob pinched Jasmin's cheeks and pulled her in by the waist for six consecutive kisses before he could even think of anything to say. "Darling, this is fetching to the most extreme degree. You've stolen my heart and set me on fire for you."

She blushed happily and booped his nose, prompting him to grab her hand and kiss it. "Gross! No poetry!"

"I can't help it!" He cried achingly. "Look at you, you're so fucking adorable!"

Jasmin's curvier, gorgeous little body fit into the mushroom swimsuit in ways that could have given him brain damage. The red halter top with thick white polka dots and smooth cream overall skirt with ruffles made her cheeks look rosy and her eyes sparkle. Her hair was pulled into two ponytails while the rest fell down her back in shiny coils. "I like when you flirt with me," She confessed sweetly, nuzzling into his chest. "I think I wanna live here."

"Done," He murmured into her hair as he placed kisses there. "You can live here forever. Maybe I can be your husband or something." It was silly, his heart rate picked up at the mention even as he glanced at his wedding ring.

Jasmin bit him much like she had earlier, but gentler to entice a rumble. "You're already my husband."

Hazel tossed Anna up in the air a few times to make her giggle and gasp in excitement. "My little honeybee!" He set her down and squatted to hold her waist. "You're so cute. Show Daddy a 360 view."

She did a happy wiggle and turned to show him the very best edition. "It has wings!" She exclaimed again. "And honeycombs on the bottoms and the tops!"

"I know!" He stood again and kissed her until she complained about his scruff being scratchy. "Ugh, deal with it, babygirl. Cause you're gonna be getting kisses all day!"

On bottom it was a one piece with different shades of golden honeycombs and honeybees on the sides. Over top she had a sheer cover up that tied at the waist and little ruffle cuffs on her biceps. It was the cutest thing he'd ever seen in the world, especially having her hair in pigtails with matching bows made of swimsuit fabric and her bright blue eyes teeming with energy.

Then she frowned. "Where's Daddy?"

They glanced back to see him with his head buried in his hands. "Give me a minute. Too much blood rushed to my face and I got really dizzy. You guys are too adorable to perceive."

The girls rushed him and clambered all over him with kisses and snuggles, making him groan and fall back as they lovingly assaulted him. "Ugh, so many cute girls." Then he outright laughed. "Sentences I Never Thought I'd Say for 500, Pat."

Hazel laughed until his stomach hurt and dropped a kiss to his head. "Alright, let's move out!"

"Alex!" Jacob pulled out his phone to text him too. When he got left on read and didn't get a verbal response he put both hands on his hips and scanned the floor as he tried to figure out how to entice him. "We're gonna leave you here!" No response. He tipped his head and raised his eyebrows thoughtfully. "I want a kiss?"

They heard footsteps and Alex poked his head out of the door. "Uhm... don't freak out, okay?"

Jacob quirked a brow. "Okay?"

He stepped out and Jacob just collapsed onto the floor as the rest gasped their thrill.

"YOU'RE MATCHING!"

Alex winced and stuck a finger in his ear. "So much for not freaking out. Don't get used to it." He crossed his arms but the boys smothered him in hugs and snuggles, laughing how absolutely enchanting he looked until he was blushing and had ceased swatting them away in favor of cheek kisses. "Okay. I guess this isn't so terrible."

Jacob groaned on the floor as he sat up again, then louder as he strangled the air and pulled at his hair. "Ugh, what 'ave I done to deserve this? I'm blooming gobsmacked!" He sat up a bit straighter and motioned Alex to come closer. "Let me have a butchers hook at you, luv."

"Oh lord, we surprised him so much he's maxed out his cockney," Jasmin giggled, slapping Alex on the back. "Go get 'em, cat boy."

As soon as Alex was within reaching distance he pulled him into his lap and rocked him. "Blimey, you're so pretty."

Alex pouted as if he were annoyed, when in reality he felt like exploding. "I'm glad you think so, you dramatic fuck. Can we go now?"

Adam picked up Connie and threw her over his shoulder. "Yeah totally."

"Hey! All my bloods rushing to my head!" She squealed.

Adam smirked at her butt and grabbed it. "I'll put it elsewhere later."

She giggled as Steven knelt to put Anna on his shoulders. "Don't forget to duck, Princess. You're so precious."

She buried her fingers in his hair to rub his head and he leaned back to give her a kiss. "I like being up here. It feels like flying."

"Well, you are a little honeybee," He murmured as his heart ached.

Her gasp of excitement made it even better.

Hazel picked up Jasmin on one hip. "Beach time, babygirl!" He kissed Jasmin's soft cheek. "You comfy?"

"Yeah, you smell good." She buried her nose in his neck and sighed innocently. "I love you."

Alex tugged Jacob off the floor as everyone piled out and pinned him against the wall to kiss the life out of him. "Mine, mine, mine." He dug his fingers into his sides and trailed kisses down his jugular as Alex squeaked and squirmed. Only after he left a hickey on the side of his neck did he let him go and laugh. "Good luck with that."

Alex groaned and grabbed a towel out of the last bag to wrap around his waist. "I hate you."

"Love you too, Doll."
