You sit Blackfire up, then lift her up.
"Come, my princess, and let us away to the beach!"
She giggles as she wraps her arms around your neck, and kicks her feet playfully.
"But it's too early for lunch, we just finished breakfast."
"Doesn't mean we can bask in the sun."
You carry her out onto your wood deck, and instantly the sun beams warm your whole body. You step down and onto the sandy beach, where you set Blackfire on her feet. She stands in the same spot as you go back in and retrieve a towel.
"What's that for?" she asks. "I don't mind getting dirty."
Blackfire winks as she sits down and stretches her legs out.
"I know, naughty girl," you tease back. "This is for when we want to clean off."
You set the towel down on the floor of the deck, and join Blackfire on the sand. The two of you face the ocean and watch as the seagulls fly by, squawking at each other as they go. You two watch the wind rustle the palm trees' leafs, and the waves lap up and foam.
Blackfire nuzzles your neck with her nose, and you smooth a hand down her stomach.
"This would've sound odd to the me from before I met you," you say, "but I am thoroughly going to enjoy seeing you pregnant."
"That still sounds odd now!" she reponds with a giggle. "But honestly... I'm going to, too."
She sits up, and straddles your lap while still facing the ocean.
