Her Volkovs #Book 2 novel Chapter 18

Belle's POV

After moments of awkward silence. "Nikolai was fine with this?"

I just nodded at Amy.

"Oh my gosh B, I think you're giving me a heart attack." Amy is slapping her chest.

She then shakes her head. "I knew it. I just had this weird feeling. I knew it. I knew it. I just ignored it." Amy said as if she's talking to herself.

"I have failed as your bestfriend. I should have seen this one coming."

"A! Look at me!!" I grabbed Amy's arms and shakes her. I think she's having a panic attack.

"A!" I'm trying to get her attention but she just looks at the floor gazing blankly.

"A! Breathe! Look at me." I then held her cheeks to face me.

"Inhale...Exhale..Inhale...Exhale...That's it. Inhale..Exhale.."

Nikolai, Alexei, and Yuri appeared from the study, while Boris and I.V stood around us.

"No stay away from us. Give us some space please. She just needs to breathe."

Slowly, the circulation of blood on Amy's face went back to normal.

"B, so Nikolai and Alexei are sharing you? Is that it?" Amy doesn't know that my Nikolai and Alexei are on the back and can perfectly hear her.

I then glanced at my future husband and Alexei. The other boys are just standing and looking down the floor when they heard what Amy asked me.

"Yes A."

Amy then quickly hugged me. I then signaled the boys including Nikolai and Alexei to shoo away.

"Are they taking care of you B?"

"Yes A, too much, borderline crazy."

Amy chuckles while still hugging me tight.

"Really? How crazy?"

"Ten times Amy crazy."

"Hmm that's indeed crazy." I chuckled.

"How big are the two?"

"What?"

Amy giggled. I on the other hand felt relieved. She seemed to go back to her usual self.

"A!!"

"What? That's a perfectly valid question."

Amy lets go from my embrace, cups my face and lands a swift kiss on my lips.

THE CHARITY GALA AND AUCTION

"Teacher Belle! Teacher Belle, my tail, it's crooked." Said Justin, one of my kids while pulling my fairy costume.

"Let me see?" I bent over and adjusted the rear of his grasshopper costume. "There." He then looks at it while turning around like a dog that is trying to catch his tail. "Hey buddy, stop turning around." I then carried him and made him sit on a chair right next to the other boys. "Don't move until teacher calls you okay?" He just nods.

The three other boys are surprisingly calm. Dawson is just sitting and biting the legs of his grasshopper costume. Sylvester is just sitting like a statue and staring blankly. And Frankie is drawing something on Sylvester's costume.

"Frankie, hand me the pen please?" He just lets out the sweetest smile to me. My heart just instantly melts. Oh god, I just hope that they behave like this during our presentation.

My three little girls are being handled by my bestfriend. She's making finishing touches to their ladybug costumes. They are playing with the glitters Amy brought.

"Thank you so much A!" I said while hugging her from the back. "What do you want? Prada? Chanel?"

"Do I look like you can just pay me off B?"

"Yes." I answered her teasingly. She just lets out a smile.

"You're spoiling me B!"

"I am. What's wrong with that?"

"Nothing. Hahahaha." She laughs like a crazy hyena. The kids look at her in awe. To my surprise, my kids laugh out imitating Amy.

"What's going on here?" It's Dylan. He's wearing a tuxedo, his hair is brushed to the back and he looks dangerously handsome as always.
