(a/n: all body types are beautiful. never be ashamed to be who you are.)
Laughter erupted from all around as Clint fell into the hole in the sand just as Nat had predicted when Peter decided to dig it. Clint feigned a mad face and chased the kid around the beach. Tony sat cross cross on the ground with Morgan in his lap while she made sand "shoes" for Pepper, who was stretched out on the edge of the blanket. Bruce sat under the umbrella chatting with Natasha. Thor was sitting on a lounge chair taking a quick nap while Loki read a book under the shade of a nearby tree. Y/N, Steve, and Bucky were playing with a frisbee.
After Thanos snapped, those who survived had gone into a depression. Now that everyone (and I mean everyone because I'm sad enough already) was back, you were trying to cherish the time you spent with each other. So when Morgan said she wanted to go to the beach, Tony had invited everyone along.
He had taken it really hard when Peter turned to dust, but he had fought those demons and worked to get him back. This was a similar experience to all the other survivors, and luckily, they were successful in reversing the tragedy.
But Thor took the event harder than the rest, he lost his home, he lost his brother while he was still grieving the loss of his parents, and he lost Y/N, his beloved girlfriend. Because of that, he let himself go and was pushed into a dark mental state. He pushed everyone out and it took a while for him to help in the last ditch effort to save everyone. Once you and his brother returned, he was able to battle with his guilt and grief and begin to heal.
"Watch out Queens," Steve yelled as Peter ran directly in the line of fire of the frisbee and got hit in the shoulder. He groaned and rubbed his arm. Clint laughed and spouted off something about karma.
Peter gave a fake pout and announced, "I'm going in the water. There aren't any flying objects there."
Y/N giggled, "I'll join you. It's getting a bit too hot." The other three men agreed and Y/N peeled away her swimsuit veil to reveal an pale orange bathing suit, her dark skin contrasting nicely with the suit, also the sun beating down gave her skin a golden tint as well.
As she threw her top and veil on her towel, she lightly teased Steve, "The American Flag, really?" He, already used to this type of ribbing, stood in the Captain America pose, feet shoulder length apart and hands on his waist,
"Nothing wrong with being patriotic." Bucky lightly punched his shoulder, "You're it!", and ran into the water. Steve chased after him with Y/N, Clint, and Peter hot on his heels. They were all splashing and having fun in the ocean in seconds.
"I missed this," Y/N turned toward Peter, "The ocean reminds me of home and spending time with all you is like being with family." He agreed, "It's nice to have a family."
...
Meanwhile, Thor had woken up from his nap to Morgan's excited squeals. Her mother and her were playing with some toys near Peter's ditch. He turned his gaze toward the ocean.
"Enjoying the view Pointbreak," Tony quipped, "Can't blame you though. If Pepper was in that bikini, I wouldn't be able to stop staring either."
"Except for watching Morgan, right?" his wife responded facetiously.
"Too bad she's mine." Thor dismissed Tony's comment. Bruce said something and almost immediately, Tony, Nat, Loki, and Thor were sucked into a lively conversation.
But he couldn't really concentrate because his eyes kept getting drawn over to the water. Y/N were gorgeous all the time, but that bathing suit left so much skin exposed. He loved how the curves of her toned muscles were just visible, and how her hair glinted in the sun. Most of all, he loved the way she smiled and laughed as she played childish games with Peter and Bucky.
