Catalaiya's pov:

(2 years later)

This morning, Aziel and I woke up at 5 am to get ready to take the private jet for a small family vacation. Haelynn was now 2 years old and our son Hayden Conan Alvaro was 6 months old. Since it was winter here, we decided to take them to a summer place where they will be able to enjoy themselves. Haelynn loves to swim so we were going to a beach.

Aziel took care of waking up the kids while I did the last-minute packing.

"Mama," I heard a grumpy voice.

I turned around and saw Haelynn standing by the door with her teddy bear in her arm. She rubbed her eyes tired.

"Come here," I said softly.

I picked her up and she leaned her head on my shoulder. I wasn't going to change their pjs as the flight was 5 hours long, they can sleep a little more on the plane. I did grab an outfit for both of them and I'll change them in the private jet. I was in a hoodie and sweatpants.

I walked to her room and grabbed her blanket.

"Is there anything else you want to take?" I asked her.

She shook her head no.

"Are you sure? How about we take Lily with us?" I said as I grabbed her barbie doll. She stared at it and nodded. Every morning, she gets grumpy when she wakes up and it takes her a few minutes to be her cheerful self.

I walked out of her room at the same as Aziel walked out of Hayden's room.

Hayden was more alert as he looked around. He was wrapped in his blue stars blanket and had a pinky in his mouth.

"Good morning," I smiled at him. He gave me one of his cheeky smiles.

"Everything is packed in the car, we are ready to leave."

----

We reached the airport and stepped out of the car. Both Aziel and I wrapped the kids completely with their blanket as the wind was freezing and it was blowing directly in our direction.

Alfred helped the worker with the suitcases while we run to the door. Once inside, we sat down on the long couch.

Both kids looked around mesmerised. It was the first time that they were travelling by plane. We buckled ourselves and the plane took off. Haelynn looked by the window, while I held her.

"Now you both sleep a little more," Aziel spoke.

"Mama," Haelynn let go of the couch and felt backwards, making me catch her. I have a mini heart attack every time she does that. It was like a trust fall, she saw this on the t.v and now she does it every time with everyone.

"You missy need to stop doing that." I poke her nose making her giggle. She climbed onto me and laid her head on my chest. I leaned backwards to give her space to lay down. I wrapped her blanket around her.

"Mister, you need to sleep too." I heard Aziel say. I looked up and saw Hayden looking around, fully awake.

"Cover his face with the blanket," I told Aziel.

For some reason, both kids love to sleep with their blankets on their faces.

Aziel did it and Hayden played for a little while before falling asleep. Even Haelynn was sleeping.

----

Thirty minutes before the plane lands, I quickly changed the kids' outfit and my outfit. They were both fully awake and full of energy. Haelynn walked around and check everything in the jet with Aziel following close behind her while I changed Hayden's clothes.

The plane landed and we all stepped out. I held Haelynn's hand as she slowly step down. We walked to a car that the hotel send for us and sat down. All our suitcases were in the trunk.

"Mama, hungry," Haelynn murmured.

"We should get breakfast before checking in," Aziel suggested and I nodded.

We reached the hotel and stepped out of the car. The entrance was wow.

Haelynn stopped and bend down to touch the water by the sidewalk.

"Can you hold him? I'll talk to the manager." Aziel said and I nodded. I grabbed Hayden in my arms and I removed his pacifier from his mouth.

"What's sissy doing?" I said as he looked down.

"Mama, water!" She said excitedly as she squat down to play.

"Don't wet yourself yet, you'll have plenty of time to swim and play in the water later... in a swimsuit," I told her.

A cute little frown formed on her face.

"Here?" She asked pointing at the water.

I chuckled," No, there is a big pool over there."

"Oh,"

Hayden let out a baby scream as he moved his legs excitedly. I squat down and let him touch the water too. He made big splashed, making us wet a little.

Haelynn giggled.

"Can I pway in now?" She asked mischievously.

These two, I swear... they unknowingly help each other to get what they want...

Thankfully Aziel came back.

Aziel did the necessary arrangement to get our suitcases in our bedroom while we went to the nearby restaurant to have breakfast.

Haelynn gasped, "Bweach!"

"We will eat first, get our belly full, relax then we will go swimming," Aziel explained to her.

Hmm... I don't think she agrees.

She remained quiet as she looked at the sea.

We settle down on a table that was close to the edge and ordered breakfast.

"I want to twouch it." She said pulling onto Aziel's arm.

"Only touching, no swimming yet... deal?" Aziel said and she nodded vigorously.

"You are going to regret even suggesting this," I told Aziel.

"She promised dada that she won't go swimming... right Haelynn?" Aziel repeated and she nodded.

He will regret this...

Both Aziel and Haelynn went on the beach and walked toward the water. I took out a baby hat from my bag and made Hayden wear it. I turned around right in time to see Haelynn sitting in the water.

Ha!

I was right.

Aziel put both hands on his hips, shaking his head at her. Thankfully I have a towel in the baby bag that I was carrying. The waitress put our breakfast on the table and I waved at Aziel to tell him to come to eat.

Haelynn walked up to me and I handed Aziel the towel to wrap around her.

"You are really bad at making deals," Aziel commented while looking down at Haelynn.

I laughed, "I told you, you would regret this."

"How did you know?" He asked me.

"Because she does this to me every time near our pool," I replied.
