Jarin considered himself lucky to be stationed on the same ship as his wife and their son. It wasn’t often that families were kept together in Starfleet. “What do you want to do today, Lanna?” He asked as he brought their breakfast to the table.

Lanna gave Jarin a thoughtful look as she sipped her morning glass of juice. “Mmm...good question, how’s about we spend some well earned family time together? Maybe a trip to the holodeck, or some shopping? Whatever you want to do, I’m happy with.”

“Oh I’m pretty open as well” he sat down and started his coffee and smiled at Jayce. “As long as I’m with the two of you my day will be perfect.”

Lanna smiled. "Then that makes two of us!" she sipped her juice. "How's about we go to the holodeck and spend a family day at the beach? there's that cove with the private beach hut I've been meaning to show you."

Jarin smiled “you know me so well.” He loved the beach and tried to visit a beach whenever he was given shore leave. “Do you think Jayce will enjoy the beach?”

“I think so” Lanna nodded. “There’s only one way to find out. I’ll get a little pair of trunks sorted for him as soon as we’ve finished breakfast.”

“Sounds fun and we should probably use some sunblock” Jarin smiled and started in on his breakfast. “We will need swim wear as well, I suppose” he smiled at his wife.

“Swimwear, Yes” Lanna smiled. “Sunblock, not a necessity it’s the holodeck, there are safeties remember?”

“Oh yes” he smiled at his wife. “Do you think Jayce will like the water?”

“I think so, he enjoys bathtime so it’s not a lot different” Lanna smiled. “Just a much, much, bigger bath tub!!” She grinned.

“Well I’m excited” Jarin smiled and continued his breakfast.

“You’re not the only one!” Lanna grinned. “I can’t wait to see you in swim trunks!”

He blushed slightly and smiled “what are you going to wear” he asked with a smile on his face. Patiently waiting for the love of his life’s response.

“I was thinking about wearing that bikini you bought me a little while ago, I’ve never yet had chance to wear it.” Lanna smiled warmly. “I like to look nice for you.”

“Oh I can’t wait” Jarin said selfishly with a smile on his face.

Lanna grinned. “You won’t have to wait much longer, I promise!”

Arriving at the holodeck Lanna set up their program before entering. They had the holodeck all to themselves for the next four hours. “Here we are!” She looked around the sun drenched beach, a little beach hut was the main area of shade and comfort. “Let’s go.” She slid off the kimono she’d worn to cover her bikini, carrying it with her.

Jarin kept the thoughts of how sexy she looked to himself. “Ready to play in the water Jayce” he asked their son as they started across the sand. “I love you two so much” Jarin smiled and took in the sun and the ocean before them.

“We both love you too handsome” Lanna smiled as she looked towards Jarin whilst settling Jayce down on the sand. “I’ll set up our little spot while you two have fun!” She pulled out a folded reed mat which she lay out next to Jayce, they didn’t need a wind break or privacy screen as they had the beach to the themselves.

“The water looks great” he said leaning down and kissing Lanna. “Want to chill on the beach or what babe?” He asked with a smile, taking off his shirt and letting the warmth of the artificial sun wash over his skin.

Lanna gave Jarin a wry smile. “I could think of things I’d like to do, but not while Jayce is here. Right now I’m happy to chill on the beach with you.”

“Same here” Jarin smiled “I love our family” the Medical Officer was very in love. “What do you say we get Jayce into the water?”

Lanna grinned and handed over their son. “Your turn daddy!” She grinned knowing how much Jarin loved to spend time with Jayce. “Let’s give our little man his first taste of the sea.”

Jarin took their child, holding him above the water. Only his feet were in the water at first and they continued deeper as the child tolerated. “Is daddies boy having fun” Jarin ask with a big smile on his face watching his sons face go from fear to happiness.

“Looking at those little feet splashing away there Jayce is having great fun!” Lanna smiled. “I think he’s going to be a natural in the water.”

“Yes it looks like it” Jarin wore a huge smile on his face. “The water is relaxing, the rhythm of the waves and the feel of the water in your skin.” He was headed further into the water and picked up Jayce “Come on momma” Jarin called out to his wife.

“I’m coming” Lanna grinned as she joined her beloved husband and her son in the water. “This is so much fun, I don’t know why we haven’t done this before.”

“Well it’s always just a few decks away” Jarin said with a smile sitting down in the cool water with their son. “Are you having fun buddy” he asked Jayce.

Lanna splashed a little water giggling at her son’s reaction to splashing in the sea water. “Then let’s make this a more regular thing.”

“I agree my love” he hadn’t been this happy in a while. Seeing his family having fun and playing in the water.
