#sakuatsu // family fluff & antics, a day at the beach 🌴

The sun was hot and ruthlessly shining down on them that one even started to boil while lying in the shadow of an umbrella.

"I don't wanna apply sunscreeeeeeen," Kimiko wailed as Kiyoomi gently rubbed the

sunscreen into her soft skin. "𝘗𝘢𝘱𝘢𝘢𝘢𝘢𝘢,"

"No buts," Kiyoomi replied and grabbed the tube behind him. "It's important otherwise you'll get a sun burn," he said, "and those are huge ouchies."

"But daddy doesn't apply it either!" Kimiko kept protesting in Kiyoomi's hold, who sent a glare in Atsumu's direction.

The blond was sitting opposite to him on their blanket, currently helping his son with putting on his (in Atsumu's opinion, 𝘩𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘰𝘶𝘴) neon green floaties.

"Oh yes, he does," Kiyoomi spoke before his husband could say anything to that matter.

"Omi..."

Atsumu didn't even 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 sunscreen! What was his husband on about?

Another glare was sent in his direction. 𝘉𝘦 𝘢 𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘳𝘰𝘭𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘥𝘦𝘭 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘬𝘪𝘥𝘴, 𝘈𝘵𝘴𝘶𝘮𝘶, it said and fuck if Kiyoomi wasn't right. (Still, he huffed in his mind at the mere thought of putting on sunscreen...

He hated it, it was so cold and sticky, bleh.)

"Well," Atsumu smiled at their daughter, "you heard your pa. Sunscreen is important!"

Kimiko kept on pouting but at least she wasn't putting up a fight anymore. Oh, whose genes she must've inherited...

"There, all done," Kiyoomi spoke, booping his daughter's nose which made her giggle. There was now a small white dot on it.

"Yay!" she yelled. "Now water, now water!"

"How about we build a sandcastle first, Kimi, mm?" Atsumu proposed as he ruffled his son's hair.

"Yes!" she immediately agreed, nodding her head furiously. Kiyoomi could literally see the stars in her eyes and he had to try his best not to cry out of mere cuteness.

"Let's go, Karu!" Kimiko said and started to drag her brother along.

"Wait, you forgot your hats!" Kiyoomi yelled after them but off they were. He sighed.

"Don't worry, their tiny legs can't get them far," Atsumu laughed, took their children's two hats and jogged after them.

With a fond look, Kiyoomi looked after them. He saw how Atsumu scooped their daughter up as if it was nothing. He spun them around, erupting laughter out of the both of them. Karu stood beside them, with grabby hands and Kiyoomi

could only figure that he wanted a ride on "daddy carousel", too.

Kiyoomi had to wonder what he did in his past live to deserve this family - a wonderful and loving husband (who was also the bane of his existence) and two beautiful children.

Kiyoomi always thought he wasn't a family person, that forming one would be hard and difficult. That even finding a 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘯𝘦𝘳 would be one of the greater tasks but... Atsumu just waltzed into his life like it was nothing.

Loving someone had never been so easy.

He smiled again as he leaned back on the lounger they'd brought along. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

He always thought he wasn't a beach-enjoyer either yet here he was, inhaling the fresh air which smelled like the sea.

Funny, isn't it, how many things can change throughout one's life.

"Daddy, move," his son said and he could count himself lucky that Atsumu didn't have a bad

hearing since Hikaru tended to speak in a rather quiet voice - 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘢 𝘤𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘰𝘯𝘦.

His son walked past him with his little bucket, which he had just filled with wet sand.

"Karu, not there!" Kimiko yelled and pushed her brother's bucket aside.

Atsumu could already see his son's bottom lip wobble - Hikaru didn't like being yelled at - and Atsumu was just about to say something when his daughter continued speaking in a calmer voice: "That's gonna be the garden! Place the tower here!"

She showed Hikaru where he could plop down the wet sand and Atsumu smiled at the gesture. Their daughter could get a little wild sometimes but she was such a sweetheart who Atsumu (and Kiyoomi of course, too) loved very much.

Just like their son who might be a little shy but still somehow managed to wear his heart on his sleeve.

"Daddy why aren't you helping?" Kimiko's scolding tone pulled him back to reality.

"I am!" he retorted, "I am sending you the mental strenght to finish this sandcastle.

Someone's gotta be the brain!"

"𝘋𝘢𝘥𝘥𝘺!"

"Okay, okay!" he stood up from where he was sitting in the sand a few feet away from them. Apparently neither of his children were content with his answer. 𝘏𝘮𝘱𝘧. "Well? What do I gotta do?"

They maybe spent a good twenty minutes on the sandcastle and they even placed a tiny cocktail umbrella on top of one of the towers.

Atsumu glanced over to his children who were playing in the shallow water and maybe he got a little emotional watching them play so carefree.

He still remembered the days vividly where each of them was born and now look at them - they were already six and four years old.

Really, just where has all the time gone?

He looked back over his shoulder to their blanket where Kiyoomi was seemingly sleeping peacefully.

He smiled.

"Daddy, play with us!" Kimiko yelled and waved him over.

"Again?" he squeezed his eyes shut because 𝘥𝘢𝘮𝘯, the sun was blinding him.

"Yes!"

"Why don't you ask papa?" he returned because it was about time Kiyoomi and Atsumu switched places. He loved their kids to death but 𝘨𝘰𝘥𝘴, they really had unlimited energy.

Like bouncing balls.

"He's sleeping though..." Hikaru trailed off.

At that, Atsumu smirked. He had the perfect solution for that. "Karu, lend me your bucket for a minute, please?"

----

Kiyoomi took back everything he had said earlier - the moment the cold and 𝘸𝘦𝘵 water hit his face, the moment he was disturbed from his precious nap and the moment he heard Atsumu's hyena laugh joined by two high-pitched giggles.

"YOU—"

++

"Papa, you looked funny!" Kimiko giggled loudly.

"You should've seen your face," Atsumu laughed.

"Oh yeah?" he replied, getting out of the lounger and immediately making his husband stop laughing - 𝘰𝘩, 𝘩𝘦 𝘬𝘯𝘦𝘸 𝘦𝘹𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘭𝘺 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘯.

"Run!" their son declared and 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘩, might not be a bad idea, Atsumu thought.

"Get back here!" Kiyoomi screamed racing after them.

They didn't care that people were staring, in fact, they didn't even care what they might probably be thinking of them.

It was just the way they are.

Their life was filled with happiness, with lots of laughing and giggling and it was especially filled with love - coming from all sides!

And as Kiyoomi was ready to murder his husband at a public beach in front of their children, he might as well be the happiest person alive.
