Not Just A Librarian

Chapter 6

Amy looked in the mirror and began to dab at the minor cuts on her face from the accident. She turned to her mother with a huff.

"Okay...I'm sorry I haven't called you in a long time, but I'm not the only one on trial here... You didn't try to call me either... the only way I found out where you lived is because I saw you and this house in the 'British Living' magazien... and since when are you Mrs. Andreievich? hmm?" Amy pressed.

"I went with a few friends to St. Petersburg last year and I met a man named Viktor  Andreievich, he and I had dinner a few times and started dating, he moved here to Edinburgh with me, we later bought this place and then got married."

Amy nodded with a frown, "Would have loved an Invite."

"Don't you dare try to guilt me about this. I tried tried to send you an invite, but your the one who keeps moving around and not letting me know about anything." She argued.

Amy nodded, "Well then... I guess we're both at fault here."

"Yep." was all her mother said. 

After a few moments of silence Mrs.  Andreievich walked over to Amy and pulled, her daughters wavy red hair out of her face. "I'm sorry we have lost contact with each other over time. I wish things didn't turn out like I hoped they would." Amy nodded sadly.

"So, what in the hell happened to get you to come over here? With 'friends'...Amy you've never been able to make friends...At least not normal ones."

"Thanks mom... and well as for me coming over...It's a long story that involved me getting kidnapped."

"And Lewis too." Lewis screeched from the night stand drinking a mug of fresh coffee.

"Yes and Lewis too." both of the women laughed.

Dinner, it's usually supposed to be the calmest part of everyone's day, but oddly enough, this wasn't the case in the Andreievich household on this very night. Usually the entire house was silent and it was until shouting and bickering erupted from the dining room.

"You kidnapped my daughter! You bloody psychopath." Amy's mother shouted at the three men who shrunk at every word. Kelly and Amy both sat back and watched things unravle.

"Listen, Mrs. Andreievich... It was not our origanal intent to kidnap your daughter, but given the circumstances... we really didn't have any other options." Benjamin tried to explain. Mrs. Andreievich eyed the three carefully. 

"Then what was your 'Origanal' intent?" she quizzed.

"Well we were going on an adventerous trip around the world, but we needed to get a book from the library, where Amy happened to work... Well she might have ended coming with us no matter what, considering that Isac has a crush on..." Isac's eyes widened and he elbowed Andy before he could blurt it out. Andy hunched over as he tried to capture his breath.

"Shut up you blabbering idot!" Isac hissed only loud enough for Andy to hear. Isac straightened up and turned to Benjamin who watched Isac with bewilderment. 

"What are you staring at?" Isac asked.

"Nothing." Benjamin defended as he turned away.

"Stop changing the subject...'Isac has a crush on what?'" Mrs. Andreievich, Amy, and Kelly all synced.

"I have a crush on the insight of librarians, so therefore Amy would have been a key asset in our trip no matter what." Isac lied. Mrs. Andreievich and Kelly nodded and Amy just looked very disappointed when Isac looked to her. A frown inched across his face.

"So then Amy are you going to continue on their adventure with them?" Amy's mother asked as she stood behind her and ran her hair through her hair. Isac turned to Benjamin and Andy, arrogantly assuming her answer would be yes.

"I'm not sure." she muttered. Isac snapped his head around and gave Amy a confused look.

"What!" he shouted.

"Why not?" Both Benjamin and Andy asked. 

Amy shrugged, "Well I haven't seen my mother in so long, so i figured that I could stay here, where I would be out of the way and spend so over due time with her." she explained. Andy and Benjamin nodded, but Isac looked quite hurt.

Amy stood up from the table and glanced at everyone in the group, "Well I think I'm going to turn in for the night I will see you all in the morning." with that said, Amy turned at began to walk out of the room.

"I'll be up to speak with you soon." her mother called after her. Amy nodded and continued out of the room. Once out the door Lewis glided from his corner down to Amy's arm.

The others went back to conversing with one another. "Mrs. Andreievich, might we ask a favore of you?" Benjamin asked.

The silver haired woman nodded. "You may."

"We need a new airplane." Andy blurted.

Benjamin's hand flew up to his forehead, "Way to get straight to the point, Andy."

"And you think I have a plane laying around, waiting for someone who needs it more than I do?" Mrs. Andreievich pressed. The three men watched her intently, waiting for an answer.

"Well lucky for you, I do have a helicopter I could lend you... but it's going to cost you, and Isac you have what I want. We'll talk after this... Now do you have need to acquire anything else?"

The requests went on and on which didn't really surprise Mrs. Andreievich. After they were done requesting things, Mrs. Andreievich pulled Isac aside.

"Okay then what do I have that you could possibly want?" Isac huffed nervously.

"Well it's more of a question I need you to answer."

Isac nodded cautiously. "Okay..."

"How do you feel about Amy?" she hissed.

"What do you mean?" Isac asked, he eyed the woman carefully.

"You know what I mean do you like my daughter?"

Her question caught Isac, slightly, off guard. "Y-yeah as a friend, I guess...But we're not really friends we're more like acquaintances. Why?"

"Well I'm an observant woman and I noticed the way you reacted when Amy said she wasn't going with you. I'm curious and I want to know why you reacted that way?"

"I don't know what you're talking about." Isac huffed while he dragged his hand over his face.

"Really...So you don't remember the confused and hurt look you were giving Amy as she was walking away? That was all just my imagination?" Mrs. Andreievich pressed. Isac turned around, walked over to the dining room, and closed the door before turning back to Mrs. Andreievich.

"No you what you saw was correct." Isac confirmed slightly looking down at the floor.

Mrs. Andreievich smiled at Isac and leaned against the sofa behind her. "Now was that so hard to admit?"

Isac looked up and glared at the woman, “Well Obviously!” he huffed before excusing himself from Mrs. Andreievich's presents.
