The three of them lay on the beach together on a giant towel under the shade of a pop up umbrella. "This is what I mean, my sister, my niece, and the fur babies, all together on the beach." Yelena said. "Yea it is nice Auntie." Athena said as she lay her head back on the towel. "Yea, we definitely needed this." Natasha said. The three of them lay together for a while until the ocean became too tempting not to go for a dip. "Race you!" Athena said as jumped up and began running to the ocean with Yelena and Natasha quickly catching up. "CHEATER!" Yelena exclaimed as she ran through the sand.

Athena dove into the ocean water and popped backup again. "I WON!" She exclaimed happily. "You cheated!" Natasha said. "Oh mom you sound like a sore looser!" Athena said laughing. "Oh come on Natasha, your daughter won fair and square." Yelena said as she splashed her sister. "Hey! Stop that you little gremlin!" Natasha exclaimed as she splashed Yelena back. The splashing continued for a few good minutes before the three of them, Maverick and Sage included decided to swim about in the ocean.

In a window inside the compound stood Carol looking down at the beach. "Enjoying the view of your girlfriend?" Wanda asked teasingly. "Yes I am. I'm enjoying the sight of my girlfriend in bikini top and surf shorts swimming around in the ocean." Carol replied. "They look like they're having a good time. It's good to see Nat having fun with her sister and daughter." Clint said as he joined Wanda and Carol at the window. "Yea it is. Natasha deserves this." Wanda added.

Back down at the beach the three women had plopped down on the towel laughing as they caught their breaths from the fun they had in the ocean. "I'll take some of those snacks and a drink." Natasha said. "I got it, I'm closer to the cooler." Athena said as she stood up and walked to the large cooler and pulled out two beers, tossing one to Yelena and one to her mom. Next she pulled out a beer for herself, and three sandwiches and three snacks and walked back to the towel and sat with everyone else and began enjoying her lunch. "Ok! Everyone together, I'm taking a selfie!" Yelena said as pulled out her phone. Natasha scooted closer to Athena who was in the middle of them as Yelena took multiple selfies.
