Hearts on the line (16+)

(40) Frustration!

Author's POV:

"ANDREI!" Bella suddenly yelled out Andrei's name making him jolt from his place and worry wash over him, "What!? are you okay princess!!?" Andrei shouted back in distress as he walks downstairs towards Bella, he entered the kitchen as he saw his wife bawling her eyes out, he immediately rushed towards her pulling her into his embrace, carefully not hugging her tight because of her now 5-month-old baby bump.

"Bella? hey princess what's wrong? I-is something hurting?" Andrei asked eyes full of worry, Bella sniffled softly burying her head in her husband's neck softly inhaling his soft musky scent that she loves, "Andrei I'm in my 5th month, can we go to the Main Mansion and stay there until I give birth? please don't say no, I really want to stay with Mom and Dad and the others" she gave him the puppy eyes begging for him to say yes, Andrei sighed defeated as he nods his head, "Yes princess but you didn't have to shout like that, you almost gave me a heart attack petal" He said as he left a chaste kiss on her lips, she giggled and excitingly left to their room, "I'll get packing! you go and inform them!" Andrei chuckled amusingly as he also heads towards their bedroom.

Bella's POV:

I started to get ready as I was so excited to meet everyone, it's been a while and I miss everyone- especially Ezra and Aurora, I yelped as I felt a kick in my stomach, I heard Andrei steps rushing towards  me holding the small of my back, "Are you okay? what happened?" he asked worryingly, I giggled as he frowns, "nothing hubby, I just felt out baby kick" his eyes widened in excitement as he made me sit on our bed and get on his knees, he kept his head near my stomach while his hand caressed my stomach hoping for the baby to kick again, "Ouch!" I yelped again as I felt the baby kick again.

To say that Andrei was over the moon was an understatement, his eyes glistened with tears as he slowly pushed up Bella's top and left a soft kiss on her stomach earning yet another kick, making Bella wince but giggle softly, "H-hi baby, it's me daddy, d-do you recognize me baby?" tears left Andrei's eyes as he felt ecstatic, he felt another kick- "that's a yes hubby, see your baby responded," Bella chuckled threading her fingers in her husband's soft dark locks, Andrei nodded feeling happy, "I can't wait till I have you in my arms baby, don't trouble mommy too much, okay?" he said and kissed her stomach before pulling down her top.

"Hubby? what do you think our baby will be? do you think we should do a gender reveal or keep it as a surprise" Bella said as she slowly goes towards their closet and starts to pick her outfit, "let's keep it a surprise when you give birth, but I have a strong feeling it's a baby girl, and to be honest, I don't mind baby, as long as the baby is healthy and in our arms" he said as he walks behind her and wraps his arms around her and keep his hands under her belly, Bella sighed softly feeling the weight of the belly lift up slightly, "Hmm yes I love it when you do this- wait what! no, I feel like this baby is a baby boy, he's strong just like you, Hehe" she giggled thinking of their baby looking just like Andrei, "okay, now come on dress up till then I'll go arrange some other stuff and I'll wait in the car okay?" Bella nodded and gave Andrei a peck on his cheeks as he also returned it and walked out.

Bella's POV:

I smiled to myself as I watched Andrei Walk out of the room. He was so good to me, and even though the pregnancy had me feeling emotional and unpredictable at times, he always knew how to comfort me. My heart swelled with love just thinking about how he interacted with our baby. The way he spoke to our little one made me even more excited to meet them.

I turned back to the closet, pulling out a white dress, something comfortable but cute for when we got to the main mansion. I knew everyone would be waiting, and I wanted to look my best. Plus, I couldn't wait to show off my baby bump to Aurora, Mom, and Dad. They'd all been so supportive, and I missed having family around all the time.
