lovely days ┊ BEACH (O)

[JULIETTE]

[align=center][div style="width: 400px; text-align: justify; font-size: 12px; font-family: times new roman; letter-spacing: .6px; color: #494949;"]after having the babies, juliette had been hesitant to wear her more revealing clothes, specifically the ones that showed her torso area. although she was proud of herself for creating two beautiful boys that she loved, there was that vain side of juliette that made her hesitant. she was a small woman standing at only five foot two and was pregnant with not one, but two decently sized babies so there was the obvious stretch marks on her tummy, something she wasn't too thrilled about. though here she was, sitting on a towel with the twins by her under an umbrella. she was dressed in a black high wasted bikini, finding herself being in an overly confident mood today and didn't care, she just wanted to enjoy the warm weather on the beach.

juliette took off her sunglasses, setting them to the side as she stretched her arms up over her head, hazel eyes looking as the boys played with the sand. as the waves crashed against the sand and the twins babbled random nonsense to eachother, she felt herself growing more and more calm. she rested her arms on the ground and leaned backwards onto them, held tilting backwards to let the sun shine on it.

for awhile she just relaxed there while the boys played until matthew decided to take a handful of sand and throw it at her legs. "putain de merde[sup]1[/sup]-" the swears slipped effortlessly in surprise, eyes shooting open as she sat up, about to be pissed only to realize it was her son who did it, watching as he giggled over it. "you are a little prankster, huh?" she lightly tickled his sides as he spoke, chuckling as he giggled and tried to scoot away. "throwing sand at people is not nice though, we will have to break you out of that habit. something tells me that will be a challenge."

juliette ran her hand over his head lightly, brushing his hair down before doing the same to milo who was trying to cover a toy with the sand. "maybe we can show you the water today." she mentioned, mainly to herself as she tried to figure out how she would be able to watch both of them and help them stand in the shallow parts of the water.

She'd managed to buy a bathing suit with the money she'd ammassed from winning fights, and suprisingly she felt...good about it. It had been a while since she recognized her own body, since she truly acknowledged its beauty and presence. In the two-piece she donned, she didn't feel like a model, but she didn't feel like she needed to. As she lay down on an old blanket, she felt the sun warm her stomach, and a small smile creeping on the edge of her lips. The seagulls screamed and the kids a few feet away from her giggled and laughed, and for once it didn't feel as though they were mocking her pain, or as though she was left out.

After a few moments, she sat up, her dark hair falling lightly against the curve of her spine. With her dark eyes set on the water, she stood and strolled towards the waves. She never learned how to swim--to this day she still cursed herself for being too young when the blackout hit--but that didn't mean she didn't know how to wade. How to shiver in delight at the cold that crept up her thighs. How to laugh at the wave that splashed into her face.

[TEDDY.]

[align=center][div style="width: 430px; text-align: justify; font-family: verdana; font-size: 6pt; letter-spacing: 2.5px; word-spacing: 0px; line-height: 12px; color: #000"]Teddy did not intend on making his way down to the beach until his gaze landed on his two nephews playing on the beach, Juliette lounging in the sand nearby. It was a fantastic day today, yet he’d only returned from his trip a mere few hours prior and so needed some rest before tonight’s party. But, it didn’t take much to change his mind once he saw Milo and Matthew enjoying themselves. Now, Teddy was by no means a family man; whilst he loved the family he did have in The Badlands, he showed zero interest in starting his own family in the foreseeable future. The great thing about Milo and Matthew was that he didn’t have to act like a father to them — that was Micah’s job — but Teddy could be the ❛ cool ❜ uncle that most children could only dream of having.

With an energised skip in his step, Teddy jogged onto the beach before strolling on over towards the boys just as he overheard Juliette’s final comment. ❝ Aww sha! What’s that you got there? ❞ Teddy crouched beside the boys, pointing towards the toy that Milo that trying to bury. Next thing, Matthew reached out to try to take a hold of Teddy’s pointer finger, narrowly missing as Teddy then pulled his hand away. ❝ And look at these grubby little hands. ❞ He teased lightly, nose crinkling up as he tried to dust the sand off on Matthew’s hand before leaning back onto his hands to peer over towards his sister-in-law.

❝ And you look as lovely as always, Jules. ❞ He commented with a smile, huffing a breath before tipping his head back to shut his eyes and bask in the sun. ❝ I missed dis, ya know? The sun and the beach. This permanent vacation of ours. ❞ With a huff, he opened one squinting eye to peer over towards Juliette to then add, ❝ You wanna see if they like da water? ❞ Kicking his loafers off, Teddy slowly rose to his feet, gaze then landing on Salem as she enjoyed the beach herself. Jaw clenched slightly as he watched, before leaning down to pick Matthew up to take him closer to the ocean.
